Mwahahaha.

Halloween is right around the corner, and I am FREAKING OUT. I really really love Halloween. It is my absolute favorite Holiday, and every year I count down the days until it comes. Not only is Halloween my favorite holiday, it also falls on the last day of my favorite month, October. I don't know what it is about October, but I just enjoy it so much. Maybe it's the weather, all of the new scary movies, the spooky feel, or the Pumpkin Spiced Lattes, but it comes so slow, and ends too soon.

Odly enough, I'm not really a big Trick-or-Treater. I think it's my age, but I'm not that crazy about it. What I do like, is dressing up and just walking around the neighborhood with friends, or going to Halloween parties. This year I'm dressing up as....Harry Potter. Yeah, yeah...I'm a major nerd; I know. But I'm excited, and my costume is really great.

So, have a great Halloween!

Imperceptions.

-I wrote this poem a while back about the people in my acting class. We did an I Am poem, where you pretty much just write a poem stating who You Are. After hearing everyones I just became inspired, so here you go.

To know someone,
What is it really?
Is it to know their favorite color,
Or their hopes and dreams?

I thought I knew them,
But I was wrong.
Every soul has a different story.
Every mind has a different thought.
Perceptions are like any diagnosis,
Rarely correct.

I now no longer have an idea of them,
I have an Identity.

Writer's Block.

Writer's Block: Most Annoying Thing in the world.
All I want to do is write, but I have nothing to write about. So, I'm just gonna talk about my life recently. It's been...pretty lame. Kind of depressing, kind of fun, well not really. I just don't have much to say. This is very lame excuse for a post, so I'm gonna post later today. && It's going to be good.

Patch of Blue Sky in this Storm.

Lately, my life has been a storm. At times it's like the people around me sound like booming thunder, and their words strike me like lightning. As they surround me, tears fall from my eyes like pouring rain. But then something happens, something that makes me forget about them. And then the storm clears, while my pouring tears slowly turn into droplets. Everything becomes blue. And there is a small window of serenity, before the storm starts up again.
I cherish this time so much. I cherish every moment, every smile, and every friend that is by my side. And even though I know it won't last forever, that doesn't make me love it any less.

Words.

Words;
To me, they play like an instrument.
Every letter a music note,
They sing a story;
A melody of a melodrama.

Words have impacted my life lately, in a negative and positive way. They have made my life a roller coaster, always going up and down in my emotions. I just read a few posts from my friend Hannah's blog: http://route6631.blogspot.com. She wrote a list of 100 things she wanted to do before you die, which I have already read in person. But seeing this list && looking at all of the carefree, cazy things she wrote down, made me realize that life is so much more than just words. What I mean is, we focus everyday on what people say to us, or what people say about us. But why? When you die, are you gonna look back && say "Do you remember when Me && Annie got in the argument?", or are you gonna say, "Do remember when we jumped out of that airplane? When we felt the air rush through us. That mixed feeling of adrenaline and fear." Hannah's post just really got me thinking that I worry too much.

I am Shelbi Nichole Weaver. I am a very guarded and slightly paranoid person. I express myself through writing. I love Hot Tea && Doctor Who. I love to be social, but I tend to take attention away from myself. I have a spontaneous, wonderful, && crazy life with a wonderful Best Friend && Family. Those are my words, what are yours?
