Today I was sitting in science class, and the periodic table of elements really got to me. Yeah I know... weird way to start off my very first blog, but it really got me thinking. Elements are sorta like people. They are groups of atoms, bonding together to create something beautiful. Something concrete. We are all just groups of elements.

Anyways that's not the point of this story. As I was thinking about these elements, I began relating all of them into my life. Each element represents something different.. something completely unique, but still beautiful. I believe we are the same way. We all have multiple sides.. multiple personalities. I know personally, some days I'm the words happiest girl, and then suddenly I can transform. The door can close and I break down. Sometimes having the weight of the world on your shoulders is too much. The pressure gets to you.

I guess that's how I've been feeling lately... pressured. Like everybody wants something from me. Like just being me isn't enough anymore. For example, I got into a fight with my mom today. It was over something totally stupid: My phone was taken away at school. Obviously having my phone taken away sucked but I wasn't too upset. I knew I'd get it back at the end of the day. So when I went into the office and asked for my phone the secretary told me, "We're keeping it overnight. Mr Pedari called your mother and she agreed to let us keep the phone." Suddenly I was overcome with emotion. Anger. I was furious. "Your mother agreed to let us keep the phone." My first thought was, who does she think she is? Letting somebody take control over my possession? That is my private life! I had a right to be upset. For all my mother knows I could have been on the phone with the freaking Make a Wish foundation, but did she ask me? No. She just let them take my phone. Without my knowledge. Without my permission. Next I felt infuriated. Legitamately infuriated. My mother had went against me. She proved to be unreliable, and untrustworthy. What kind of mother automatically assumes the worst, and doesn't listen to my side of the story?! Yeah I punched a wall. Thats how angry I am.

DEEP BREATHS. DEEP BREATHS.
Now don't get me wrong, today wasn't a horrible day. It's all about the elements, remember? :) So how about the reason I got my phone taken away in the first place.. I was in business class when I got a notification from my twitter (twitter.com/bridgetxo) saying Spencer Pratt was live on SayNow. I am a Hills addict and I love Spencer and Heidi so much, so I had to call. After waiting for about 10 minutes I got through!!! And I had a great converation with Spencer. We talked about Heidi's EP (which is out on iTunes NOW!!) and he even asked questions about the class I was in. He was super nice and talking with him was so much fun! Until my business teacher interuppted the call and took my phone. Whoops! Also, Spencer tweeted about me and so did Heidi. They are two of the sweetest people ever. :) Watch out for them on the Hills (Tuesdays @ 1opm on MTV) and don't forget to check out Heidi's music on iTunes!! Personally, No More and Blackout are my favourites. ;)

They say every cloud has a silver lining and after a day like today I know that's true. Even though I'm upset and angry... I have a lot to be thankful for. So thank you Heidi and Spencer. You both made me smile. :)

I hope all of you are having a great day, and if you aren't... just smile. Your smile makes the world a better place. And remember... we're all just elements.

Love & Blessings,
Bridget
