Hello there, and happy Singles Awareness Day!
Right now I am enjoying some delicious strawberry-flavored Life Savers and some Dove chocolates. They're quite good. ^^ I'm listening to "I've Just Seen a Face" from the movie Across the Universe. Great film. Go watch it--now.
Today I mostly did nothing, just chilled around the house. This morning I was having a bad start to my day, and so I went where I usually go to think a while: my giant trampoline outside.
Our trampoline stands about 3 feet tall and at most 12 feet across, with blue padding around the edges and a dotted circle in the middle like a landing platform. It stands right in front of our jungle gym, and sometimes we like to climb to the top and jump onto the trampoline. And then of course my mother runs screaming out of the house and yells that only one person should be jumping at a time(yeah, right) and what on earth are we doing?! Pretty funny, actually.
Other fun games include: Moonwalking around the edge in a frenzied race, double bouncing your friends(you bounce right before they do and it shoots them miles into the air--loads of fun), bouncing onto your back or butt, and then standing up again on the bounce up, bouncing on your back and flipping over, handstands, playing "popcorn"(someone lays curled in a ball in the middle, and everyone else bounces around them, trying to get them to unclasp their hands from their knees), people crawling around on the trampoline while someone underneath tries to hit or tickle them.
On lonely days, though, when you just need to chill for a while, you can go outside and just lay on the trampoline. Usually no one will bother you, unless it's your younger sister who wants to play. If you turn over and rest your head in your arms, you can see the ground and it feels almost as though you're levitating. At night you can just lay there and stargaze. Trampolines are also good for having deep conversations with friends, playing jokes on best friends, making new friends.
What is your favorite thinking spot? Where do you go for random bits of inspiration?

Depends I guess.
I love to sit outside at school during lunch. It's pretty quiet.
My tree. Climb to the top and see over the houses and the little lake.When the moon is full you just sit. Out on the gutter. Gross? Not unless its trash day. OH. Out on the top of the hottub,you get a pillow and you lay there. Watch the stars. Meteors can be wished on. The bench in the front of the house. The car. The roof of someones else's house. Trampolines. Fields. Decks 5 feet up, in WA, with all the stars that can fit in the sky. Beaches at night. Sit on the sand and watch the sky and water. Morning at a Natioanl Park. Sunrise. The Window in the front of my house. Ect.
