Its been two years since I graduated from high school. Which means its been two years since someone has called me immature. This concept of maturity has always confused me a little bit. So I did some research. Dictionary.com defines maturity as follows: full development; perfected condition.
Recently, I was told that I acted more mature ever since I started college and to be honest, I was kind of offended. To me, "maturity" isn't about the jokes you laugh at or what you spend your time doing. It is about how you treat people and how you handle certain situations. I try my best not to judge people and just accept them for who they are. Am I less mature than Guy A because I look at video game magazines while he's looking at car magazines? No. I just have different interests. What about if I wear headbands and toe shoes while Guy A is wearing American Eagle or Hollister? No. He is just more comfortable in those clothes. And I'm mature enough to accept that.
Random story: Today is Father's Day, so my family woke up early so we could all go out and eat a nice breakfast before church. Of course we let dad choose where we would go. His choice: Meijer. We bought half a dozen donuts and some milk then we just popped a squat in a sitting area near the entrance of the store. Classy.

New Purpose Blog
Since I'm no longer using this blog for Media Scriptwriting, I've decided to use it to help organize my thoughts and visualize my ideas. So this blog will be here for my benefit. Not for entertainment. In fact, I expect to be the sole reader of the Blah Blah Blog.
Random story: I decided eat lunch at home in order to save money instead of going to Burger King with a friend. Upon arriving at him I sat in front of my computer, proud of myself for conserving my money (I've been spending a lot of money lately. On things that I don't really need, like a 21 inch HD computer monitor.) I know I can be using my money for something more worthwhile and I'm reminded of this everytime the offering plate comes around at church. Back to the story, I opened my email and was almost blinded by the shiny new message from Amazon nestled within my inbox. It read: Amazon.com HUGE DVD SALE. Needless to say I clicked the link.
So instead of spending about 6 bucks at BK, I ended up spending $30 on DVDs and an old House of Heroes CD....The End. (I also bought the Iron Giant, directed by the great Brad Bird!)
On the topic of spending money and House of Heroes, I bought their House of Heroes Meets the Beatles EP. I've listened to it nonstop since I got it. It's only 3 songs which is disappointing. But I recommend any fan of HoH, the Beatles, or...music in general to check it out. The songs they cover are "Can't Buy Me Love", "It Won't Be Long", and "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da."
