McDonald's brings back memories.

I remember those days when I could eat a happy meal without feeling fat or childish. This was long before director Morgan Spurlock tainted McDonald's name with his documentary 'Supersize Me'. Spurlock produced a valid point with McDonald's and other leading fast food chains though; if you eat too much fast food, you will get fat. Yet again, this knowledge could be applied to almost every food; healthy or not.
 When I was young I could eat as many happy meals as I want without getting fat because:
1) No one minded a skinny child eating as much as he wanted
2) I would work all that fat out of my system in the playground at McDonalds anyway.

The second point really doesn't apply to me or any other adults anymore, which is a true shame. I can't even step foot into the McDonald's playground without feeling like a child or being eyed at by genuinely frightened parents. I blame the pedophiles out there in society.

However, this ad from McDonald's came along and it reignited my belief that adults are just children  trapped in a larger, fatter ( and more suited) body of themselves.
Who cares if I still think the clown at McDonald's is scary? This playground is too awesome to be missed.

This ad was in Sydney, Australia. I must admit that the ad strikes me as being a little cynical, considering that it still encourages eating at Mcdonald's more than releasing your inner child but hey, learn from children; don't overthink.

My first ever blog post. That's one feat I can cross off on my bucket list! I will probably look back on this post and laugh at myself for writing it. In fact, my big brother is already mocking me as I complete this...
Corny or not, this blog will contain my deepest thoughts and experiences that have shaped who I am today.
I know that there are teenagers and young adults out there who have experienced terrible things that I have also had to endure. I want to help you to understand that you are not alone ( wow, this IS getting corny ) but I also want you to help me make sense of everything.
This blog is not all just about gloomy experiences and rants; it's about the little things that keep us interested in pursuing our dreams and hobbies. Random things, of course. Random pictures, videos, items and pieces that keep us smiling throughout the day, even though we know that the day sucked terribly. 
I apologise for the shabby blog site. I promise you ( 0 followers at the moment) that I will fix this site up and make it look like a masterpiece from the movie Inception ( awesome movie, right?)
However, for the time being, I will post more random things to keep you interested/bored whilst I look up the dummies guide to blogging...

Keep on pondering...
