A sigh for Acai . . .
I often get quite irritated when people "correct" me with the incorrect information. I know what I'm saying is correct, and they try to correct me.
Of course, there are times that I have no idea what is correct, but then I'm not angry. I'll either just nod or say, "Oh, I didn't know that." Most of the time when I'm reading a word or saying a word, I'll say, I don't know, that word, that weird thing.
For a long while, I did not know how to say "acai."
However, prior to going to New Orleans, I had learned how to say the word because it was mentioned in something I was watching.
It drove me insane that when I tried to say the word correctly, somebody, who was obviously younger than I, tried to correct me. The girl kept saying, "The UH-SIGH berry."
I'd say it correctly, "ah-Sigh-ee."
She's said, "The UH-SIGH" berry.
No matter what, she would always push the way she was saying it as the correct way. One could tell that she was trying to push her way of saying it by the way she stress the word.
I don't even know who it was that did this, but it is just one of those things that really irritated me at the time.
Plus, now you know that the berry, the one spelled "A-C-A-I" is said "ah-Sigh-ee."

Children and Sex . . .
I've made a decision. It's doesn't affect me at the very moment or actually for quite awhile. That's the good thing about this decision. If I really feel that it's a terrible decision, I can then change my mind about it.
However, at the moment, I really feel that I'd like to have a child before I'm 30.
I know that I'd really like to find a husband and somebody that loves me for me, but perhaps, it's just not meant to be. Once I'm 30 (well, really I've decided it'll be April 2012 - the month before I turn 30), even if I don't end up getting any other job, I should be making a good profit from page views on Associated Content. After all, by then, I'll easily have over 1,000 articles, maybe even over 2,000.
Of course, I can't say how my life will truly go. However, my decision is that by then, if I'm not married and/or don't have a child or children for some reason, then I will go ahead and try to find a guy that is okay with having children - even if we never get married or live together. Yes, I will just look for a guy who wants to have sex and is not afraid of having a child be his offspring.
It would be nice if the guy wants to be involved in the child's life, but I think I'd be okay with just monetary support if I don't make enough money myself, and that's only an if.
For now, though, I'm still that born again virgin. I'm holding out for awhile to find that true love. This decision has made me much happier than I've been in a long while.

I know, do you?
I saw this quote on somebody's facebook page:
You know what it's like getting up every morning? Feeling hopeless, feeling like the love of your life is waking up with the wrong man. But, at the same time hoping that she still finds happiness, even if it's never going to be with you.
If you switch the genders, I know that feeling way too perfectly. I hate the feeling.
Then, there's the feeling of wanting to be happy for the couple and everything that happens for them. I sometime get this feelings. I guess they are almost psychic, but I don't think I"m psychic, but I do get feelings about relationships a lot of times and I honestly can't think of a time that I was truly wrong when I sincerely went with a feeling and not my own types of "but he should be the one I love." I don't want to say that to somebody.
I never want a realtionship to be destroyed or to end in a horrible way.
Yet, there has been at least one guy who I've had to tell things to keep him out of trouble with women. It's not ever been a horrible thing. He knows that my feelings are very real and very true.
It's such a horrible thing to have thiese feelings and to almost "know" what is going to happen.

Questions
I do believe in God, and in Jesus, and in the Holy Spirit. There's just something that has absolutely grabbed a hold of me that makes is to I cannot say this is not true. I feel bad if I would say so.
I even feel bad when I start wondering. There are those times when I feel God just isn't there, but mostly, I can feel His love with something.
However, there are some times that I just get to thinking - and sometimes that can be dangerous. I have to remind myself of prayers that were answered either for myself or others and the things historians have found, too.
Sometimes I start thinking about things like, "Well, if God exists, who or what created God? We're here, so how did God get here?"
Of course, then I go back to the fact that something had to create everything that's here and where would it have come from, anyway.
Even if you have the Big Bang Theory and it proves to be right, where did everything used to produce that originate. If that's proved, still, who did it.
Scientists can always tlel us how, but not who.
Those are always two different questions.
Still, thinking, "Who created God?" or "How did God get here?" can be unsettling at times.
Am I the only person taht thinks things like this at times? I certainly hope not, but it's true, I believe, and I still have these questions.

A note to people . . .
If you are going to ask about a book, get the name of the author correct or admit that you don't know the name. As in this case:
Of course, that's not what I put. I gave some general information (which did include the name Ray Bradbury) about the novel since I could not find any specific information that they were requesting.
I felt like composing such a message, though.
Dear person that sent a question via ChaCha,
I do not know if Beth Keane is a character in Fahrenheit 451. I know that Montag is. I cannot find any information on a secret pact or secret agreement between the two. However, the novel is not by Red Branberry. The novel Fahrenheit 415 is by the author Ray Bradbury.

New Blog Created
I have no real idea why I called this blog "Poetry, Prose, and Popcorn," but it sounded good. I thought the name wouldn't be taken after I tried a few things and they were taken.
I do like popcorn when I feel like eating popcorn, though I'm not fanatic over it.
Mainly, I created this blog because all my friend are now using blogger. I'm still keeping my LiveJournal as I love it there. It makes things easier to read, in my opinion. However, everybody is here, so I'm here, too.
You can look at who I'm following to find my friends as I don't have time to post the links at this very moment. That will probably be the next post, or at least within the next few posts.
