Loopiness

Most people that have known me for a while would say Im pretty tame.
I was always pretty mild-mannered...never to make a goof out of myself or act too silly.

Lately though...these past few months, Ive been feeling really good and not acting as self-conscious. There was a day when I would NEVER EVER dance around unless I was drinking, and now I can go and just do it and have a good time for its own sake.
Coming out of the shell? Raw food magic? Who knows? I just want to have fun now.

If you play by the rules and stay in line...
its very VERY likely that you are going to stay with the rest of the crowd. Mediocre and semi-happy. I watched a video from Matt Monarch the other day, and he was talking about NOT playing by the rules. NOT behaving.
Just GOING FOR IT.
I think the rules are made up by the rulers so we can continue to be on a lower level than them.
Obviously, I feel that this way of living is due for a big change.
Don't hurt others of course, but do what it takes to make your dreams happen.
Misbehaving is likely the key to liberation.

Thoreau once said something about regretting that he was so damn-well behaved in his youth, and if he could go back, he would definitely raise some more hell. I come from the upper-midwest, where its pretty expected to not draw too much attention to yourself and to not cause trouble. Its only lately that Ive been coming out of this. Its just so funny how we care so much about the opinions of strangers. Social conditioning? Herd Mentality? No thanks.

Check these people out....


Taking lame holiday pics next to this plastic polar bear.

Or...you can ride that bear like ya own it!

Who do you think has more fun in life?

Certainly not this bum security guard who made us leave...


BORING!!! A prime example of what happens when you follow the rules your whole life.
Do you think he is raw? Haha...Go home and eat some fried pork rice, amigo.
(I LOVE the Pants-tucked-in-the-Boots look...new trend for 2008! Look out!)

We went and saw I Am Legend with Will Smith (who is fit as ever) right before all of this.
I would say to go watch it (its scary though...), or at least rent it when it comes out. Its a pretty depressing movie, so when we got out of the theatre, we were pretty happy to be alive and well.
I guess a little celebration was in order.

Just have fun! To hell with all the regulations. Those will only keep you down.
Block out the distractions, discover what you want, find out how to get it, and GO FOR IT!

And have tons of fun while youre doing it.

Im posting lots lately because I dont know what the internet situation will be in Cambodia.

Raw Food Good, Cooked Food...Crazy.
