Going The Distance...
okay so this post Is about long distance relationships and my thoughts on them.
Recently I have started up with this girl who lives soooo far from me that its sucks hard but yet when I talk to her I know there is something special and I cant bring myself to think logical. But hey I guess that's the thing right? Long distance is probably not the most logical thing to do but try telling that to your heart that, I guarantee it wont give a crap..
So what I'm thinking is can a long distance relationship really work? For me I'm kind of a hopeless romantic that believes that anything is possible when it comes to love, and before you ask, yes I have been hurt i"m not just being naive about this.
I mean Is it crazy to be so into a person without seeing them? The way I see is that if they make you happy then who cares. If you think about them a lot and find yourself reading there messages twice then chances are your smitten.
There is a lot that you have to think about when it comes to entering into a long distance relationship. I mean you cant be half in and half out because its already hard enough not being able to see one another without bringing trust issues to the surface. You have to be 100 percent committed to the person and to the relationship, and if you find that you cant throw yourself body and soul into it then walk away before you someone.
And yes, its much easier said then done and here is why..
As you get to know the person, day by day its harder to live with the distance because all you want to do is touch them and hold them yet you can't. You start to day dream about memories you haven't even shared with them yet, and then when you wake up and reality strikes you realize just how much you miss them. Even if you haven't known that person a long time it doesn't mean a thing because when you cant physically be with that person its like you make up for it in how much you actually talk and discover about them as its all you have to hold onto.
I believe that long distance relationships are probably doomed to fail because the reality of it can become too hard for most people. However i do believe that if you truly want and love that person that you will figure out a way to move mountains to make sure it works.
Here's hoping I have the strength to move the mountains that lay in front of me...

Is telling your parents that you gay/lesbian a must!?
Okay here is why I think that it is an important step that all gay/lesbian people need to do. First of all I think it’s a good thing for me to point out right now that my parents do know my sexual orientation, in fact everyone in my life does. The reason I shared that little bit of information is because I don’t want people thinking that I just preach crap and let others take the plunge. No no no that’s not how I operate
Okay now that we have that piece of unnecessary gibberish out of the way lets continue.
Now there are a few ways to look at this situation and I think that many people feel differently and that’s where the confusion comes in. Personally I think that it is needed to tell the people you care about that you are either gay or a lesbian. I believe that it’s really important to tell your parents and not so much because you owe it to them, but because I think that you owe it to yourself. You owe it to yourself to be able to be uninhibited around them, to be able to feel free and not as though you have to hide certain parts of your life when around them. Before I came out to my parents I first had to make sure that I came out to myself. This may sound a bit strange but I seriously believe that you have to be 100% sure about your sexuality with yourself before you can go sharing it with your parents. For me I guess it was a gradual process, I mean looking back now I think wow how could I have not know that I was a lesbian. However things do take time, not only to accept but to understand. Firstly I thought that I was bisexual and maybe that’s because I still had some confusion and maybe it’s because I still did find guys attractive but I didn’t have any desire to want to be them. Either way I knew that I was very attracted to women and so I decided to tell my family. I’m not gonna lie I was a bit scared of their reactions but I knew that I didn’t want to keep this from them any longer. At 19 I told my parents that I was bisexual, it wasn’t a smooth moment mostly because of shock or not knowing what that meant for me and my future, but pretty quickly it was as if nothing had changed. I’ am very lucky to have a family that is so supportive, my sexuality hasn’t changed a thing in my family’s eyes but for me it has. I feel so much lighter and completely me, I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders and I’m free from having to sneak around like a cat burglar. Anyway it was pretty funny because I almost straight away I had realized that I was not bisexual, I was a fully fledged lesbian! 19 was a great year lol
Okay now I’m aware that I may have gone a little off track but in a way I think that by me telling you a little about my experiences it may help you in yours.
The way I see it is that my name is Layne I’m 22 I love being creative, I love sports, I love music AND I just happen to be a lesbian.
I hope you get the point I was trying to make. You see your sexuality is just a part of you, it shouldn’t be what people define you as nor should it be what people dislike you for.
The reason I believe that coming out is a very important step is because you really get to know who really loves and cares for you no matter what. Your parents do love you and if whatever reason they get angry when you tell them you gay/lesbian, then my bet is that it’s because they don’t really understand homosexuality. For most people they think that it’s a choice and that’s why your parents might react in a way where they think they can just shake you out of it. What you need to do is be patient with them as hard as it sometimes will be you have to be the cool headed one in this situation. Your parents may come around quickly or they may take a really long time but the best thing you can do is continue to show them that you are who they raised you to be, you just happen to have a heart that leads you in a another direction.
I really hope that this all makes sense and if there is anything that I have left out or not discussed enough and you would like to know more about then please feel free to send me a message or leave a comment down below.

Quick Quote
Hey guys here is a a quote that i really wanted to share, i think its pretty awesome and it really captures a simple point that we as a population should be living by.
I think this really fits for same sex marriage rights, what you think?
"Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individua...l)."
Ayn Rand

Flying!
Hey ladies and gents I’m in an awesome mood and the following will explain it perfectly!
Yesterday I flew a light air craft for the very first time at Moorabbin airport. It all started back in May when I got a gift from my girlfriend for a total experience package to fly a plane! At first I was nervous then excitement just took over and I couldn’t wait to be in the sky. It’s now January which is the Australian summer time and also my selected flight time and date. So after a long wait the time was finally here and it couldn’t have been a more perfect day. The sky was blue, free of clouds and the temperature was nice and warm. I had called that morning to confirm my flight and of course It was confirmed, however that didn’t mean a thing as just last week I was given the green light yet needless to say it didn’t go ahead. Anyway as my girlfriend and I drove to the airport I strutted into the flight centre’s reception with a sense of complete excitement. I was told that my instructor would be with me in 5-10 minutes so we waited. Next thing I know my girlfriend is telling me to look at who just walked in the door, and to my surprise it was Toddie from a popular TV program we watch called Neighbour’s. “sweet” I thought, yet later on my opinions of him changed via my girl. (no need to get into why)
Okay back to me
Finally my instructor called my name and took me to a room where we briefly went over what was going to happen and how everything worked. When we were done with that it was now time to get to the good stuff! We did our checks and got comfortable before I took control of the light air craft and began to taxi out to the runway. I gotta say by this point I was already enjoying myself and anticipation was rising. Okay were now at the runway and we’ve just been given the all clear to take off, my right hand grips the throttle and pushes it to full speed. Once we reach maximum speed I take the steering wheel thing and pull it towards me, next thing I no we are lifting off the ground! We continue to increase our height to two hundred and fifty feet. I did it! I couldn’t believe how easy it was to take off. For the rest of the flight it was very smooth flying and I must say it was beautiful as we were going along the coast. Being so high up in such a small air craft was a different feeling to what I thought it would be, I loved it and It wasn’t at all scary. Before I knew it we had to fly back and when we were given the go ahead to land the instructor took over for the first time. We approached the airport runway but at the last minute we had to pull up and circle back because someone had entered out runway. Second time was a charm and as we hit the runway I was relieved because let me tell you, when your dropping from the sky so quickly you lose your stomach and tend to feel nauseous. The instructor asked how I was as we taxied back and he said it was a normal feeling and that most people feel that too because they are not use to it.
Despite that part the entire experience was amazing and I’m very thankful to my girlfriend for the gift. Now when I look to sky over my house and see all those small planes I can say that I’ve experienced that.
Something similar to what i flew

New Guitar!
Hey bloggers it’s been awhile!
Sorry I haven’t blogged in some time but I hope to be forgiven as it was after all the holidays.
On that note I hope that all of you enjoyed your holidays and were spoiled rotten for Christmas!
Okay well this blog may interest those of you that were following my guitar adventures some time ago. Well! I’m so excited because I have now just gotten my second guitar, it’s another acoustic but this one is a classical one with the bottom 3 strings (G,B,E strings) a type of plastic or rubber. Hmm yes I’m still a learner as you may have noticed by my awesome knowledge of strings haha..
Okay back to my point. I got this guitar as a second hand one but it’s in beautiful condition and I must say it’s really nice to play. I have noticed that because of the softer strings I can practice for longer as it’s less painful on my finger tips.
Also I have been dabbling in writing my own songs as writing is a strong passion of mine. (check out my secondary blog on poetry) I find that writing my own lyrics keeps me motivated to practice guitar much more often. I have found a new love that allows me to give my writing a new life through music. (does that make sense?) well anyway I’m aware that this blog is all over the place and I’m actually gonna go there and make an excuse for myself and put it down to how late it is here.
okay okay on that note I will sign off and say goodnight.. hmmm maybe I'll get an electric guitar next!

YouTube!
Hey dudes And dudettes, yep that’s right I’m in an odd mood and you know what that means…..
Weirdisim! I know, I know weirdism isn’t really a word but hey maybe it should be considering some of the recent additions to the dictionary. To those who have no idea what I’m on about go research it, it’s mind numbingly stupid what constitutes as a word these days, HENCE the weirdism! ;p

I feel like discussing YouTube at the moment and here is why. Have you actually browsed through YouTubes videos and been amazed at what talent is on display? I have and I’m seriously thinking that the world for even a moment should turn upside down and have the musicians from Youtube be the real stars and the “REAL STARS” be singing there asses off on the net trying to get somewhere. Granted there is a lot of crap on YouTube but isn’t that the same with some of the things we have to put up with on the radio and TV programs such as Video hits and RAGE ect
Well bloggers it’s time to spare a moment and look at what I’m on about. Here are just a few links of some of the talent I have taken an interest in but believe me there are loads more I just can’t sit here all day posting links. (If I could I would)

Tattoos! ((on women))
Hey everyone today I want to discuss tattoos.
On Monday I went with one of my good friends to watch her get a tattoo, not only was it her first tattoo but it was one of her first ever times stepping foot into a tattoo shop. (Mine too!)
Now I want to start off by saying how different the atmosphere is in those places, I don’t know exactly why that is or if it’s just me but something’s just a bit intimidating right?
Anyway I decided to take my video camera along with me so we could kind of document her special moment. My friend had wanted a tattoo for like 6 or 7 years and she knew what she wanted it was just a matter of getting the right design and that’s why we were there because she had finally done that.
My role was to be her support but knowing me I may have fooled around with her but it was all very light hearted and let’s face it, that’s what friends are for right? Now getting down to business was a different thing because getting a tattoo is something that’s with you for life, and I don’t know about anyone else but a life commitment even that of a tattoo is a big deal.
Anyway its now been a couple of days and I know she doesn’t regret it.
Now what I really want to talk about is tattoos on women, are they sexy or are they a turn off? Personally I’m not attracted to women with a load of tattoos however I don’t mind one or two as long as it’s fitting for that individual. Like some people suit tatts and some just don’t. I have come across girls with tatts and found myself not attracted to them, but on the other hand I’ve met some girls that had a tattoo and it looked very sexy. My point is that it’s down to the individual and what looks good on their body. I mean I view it just like I view clothing, some clothes look amazing on others yet some don’t.
Either way I think it’s another case of personal opinion and the awesome thing about that is EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT! YAY
Okay that was just my two cents on that matter xxx
