be smashingly interesting

I tried writing insightful poetry about how life is meaningless, but no-one was interested.

I tried rising above what people thought, but they didn’t like that either.

I tried being humble and obedient, but I even bored myself.

I tried falling in love, but even he wasn’t interested!

I tried getting hilariously drunk, but I think people liked it better the first five times.

So how do I do this being interesting thing?

I believe the only way to become smashingly interesting is to get interested. Everyone has a different idea of what a smashingly interesting person looks like – mine is extremely smart, self-actualized, involved, vital, and humble. Finding things that spark you will naturally make you push yourself, and pushing yourself is the best way to grow. Growth, in my opinion, makes people interesting. So if you seek to be a good human being and grow with a proper perspective, you’re probably well on your way to becoming smashingly interesting. It’s not just the things you do, but the way you look at and experience them.

I know someone like this. He’s in his 80’s and has overcome some of the toughest circumstances imaginable, thanks to his lust for life. He’s done a bajillion things but doesn’t talk at length about them (unless pressed under intimate circumstances), and this makes him even more intriguing. He doesn’t put on any airs, is truly humble, and has the attitude of “this is just what I’ve done with my life because I was compelled by an interest in interacting with the creation of history.” If that makes any sense. Anyway, I think we each have to find our own way of being smashingly interesting. I just think he cuts a pretty fantastic example.

I went Ice fishing on Monday. I caught two fish, and screamed every time. AHAHA. I just didn’t know what I would do with it after I pulled it out of the water. Thank-god the obnoxious, Blake the “fag” (I don’t actually call him that, just all of his “friends” do) was there to help. “Thanks Blake, now go fwak off”.

So, my friend Kiana caught a fish, and obviously I’m screaming, I back up, and step into one of the ice fishing holes! And the water was freezing. So it’s a school trip too and I have to walk back to the bus with soaking jeans. Pretty interesting, huh?

to be memorable. Leave a smashing first impression because of my smashing personality because I’m so smashingly interesting. =) I think if I complete my list, this will be true. So this is what my life will hopefully lead too. =)

It sounds so immature…...but I want to be smashingly interesting!

I want to leave a strong impression on any person I meet. I plan to take interest in others—true interest and care. I like the posting about spending time with people that are interesting. The ones that bring out the very best in me and I bring out the best in them. My goal is to always take interest in others before myself, while maintaining my enthusiasm and confidence!

I find showing interested in others increases their interest in me in a heartbeat. This doesn’t mean forgetting yourself though, but to find a middle path and meet eachother there.

Within five minutes after meeting a new person, I’ve made up my opinion on whether he/she is interesting, and if I find that they are not, there is no point in me wasting my time on them, is there? Unless they need a helping hand in one way or another, we are both better off using or time to connect with people we are more on wave-lenght with.

Be open. Interested. See posibilities in people and places where you didn’t expect to find them. Talk about personal, important stuff with strangers. Share. Have an impact. Learn. Live.

^{Love. :)}

I seem to be smashingly interesting. People always want to hang out with me, or go to

parties with me, or drink with me, or do SOMETHING with me. Honestly, it’s a natural gift.

Of course, there are different levels of being smashingly interesting. I say exactly what’s

on my mind. Sometimes it’s sick or discusting, and people don’t get it, but they find it

interesting nonetheless.

My advice is: just be open. Don’t even be yourself. Be what you want to be for a week, and

you’ll slowly fade into that superstar part you’re playing.

Good luck!

i only have one life…on short second on this planet. why not make myself the most cultured, humble, intelligent, thoughtful, deep-thinking, fun-loving, person i can be. when people see me walking down the street, i want to catch their eye. i want to be the sore thumb in a world of cookie cutters.

right now = too focused on school.

I’m loosing every interesting quality about myself…
