A 30 Day Challenge - Your highs and lows of this past year

February 22nd, 2014

Challenge #17: Your highs and lows of this past year. - Uh oh! I mixed these ones around!

This is a tough one because nothing in particular comes to mind when trying to think of my highs and lows of this past year. I'll just have to keep thinking about this one and come back to it! :(

A 30 Day Challenge - Your beliefs

February 22nd, 2014

Challenge #18: Your beliefs.

These are some of the things I believe in the most.

- People are prettiest when they talk about something they really love with passion in their eyes.
- Magic is something you make.
- I don't care how attractive you think you look; if you have an ugly heart, you're ugly.
- Not all who wander are lost.
- Staying quiet doesn't mean you have nothing to say. It means you don't think they're ready to hear your thoughts.
- The sky isn't always blue The sun doesn't always shine. So it's okay to fall apart sometimes.
- Never forget what someone says to you when they are drunk, because drunk words are sober thoughts.
- An arrow can be shot by pulling it backward. When life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means it's going to launch you into something great. So just focus, and keep aiming.
- Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it.
- Fall in love when you're ready, not when you're lonely.
- If you trust someone there's a risk of being disappointed.
- Never leave the house in sweats. A girl must be prepared to meet a dashing stranger or old enemy.
- If you don't like where you are, move. You are not a tree.

A 30 Day Challenge - Your views on mainstream music

February 22nd, 2014

Challenge #16: Your views on mainstream music.

Okay, I had to do a bit of research on this one because I wasn't sure what mainstream really meant. Basically mainstream music is just the popular music of today: top 40, pop, hip-hop. All that. I have no problem with mainstream music. I like most music that is coming out today. I do think it's starting to go downhill more and more lately though. It's all starting to sound more and more techno-ish and electronic.
But I do like my indie rock and alternative music. I like basically every type of music - just not metal and jazz.
This is a really short post but I really don't have much to say on this subject.

I don't use my Tumblr nearly enough though. I need to start getting on there more!

A 30 Day Challenge - Your earliest memory

February 19th, 2014

Challenge #14: Your earliest memory.

My earliest memory is when I was probably about 5. I have this older couple as a neighbor, and the woman has a daughter whose family used to live there with them at this time.  And the daughter had a couple of sons I used to play with all of the time. These were honestly probably my most tomboyish days. I used to run around barefoot all over my yard, my driveway, and my neighbors yard. The older man used to have this machine that would grind up wood. So there would always be a huge pile of sawdust on the ground. And me and the two sons would play in it all the time. My mom HATED it. Because she'd have to end up trying to get all the wood shavings out of my hair. And this happened A LOT. I'm laughing now just thinking about it. We also used play in my sandbox. And we'd ride scooters up and down my driveway. Eventually, the family moved out of that house though. The older couple still lives there, and the family visits a few times a year but I don't ever get to see the two sons. It's crazy how at one point in your life, some people are such a priority in your life. Then before you know it, they're gone.

A 30 Day Challenge - Somewhere you'd like to move or visit

February 19th, 2014

Challenge #13: Somewhere you'd like to move or visit.

If I were to move, it probably wouldn't be too far away. Maybe southern Ohio, or possibly West Virginia.. But those are the only places I would move to.

There are a million places I would love to visit. I want to visit all 50 states. I want to go on a cruise around the Caribbean. I want to see the Eiffel Tower. I want to visit Australia. I've never really thought of that one place I'd like to go to though. You know, if I could only choose one. Hmmm..

The one place that I would like to visit is Thailand. I want to go to a lantern festival there. I think it all started when I watched the Disney movie Tangled. I just think they're very beautiful and I love looking at lights.

A 30 Day Challenge - Bullet your whole day

February 18th, 2014

Challenge #12: Bullet your whole day.
  • Woke up
  • Played the Sims 2 while boyfriend watched Dexter
  • Went to the post office, dropped off two packages
  • Went home, showered
  • Went to Mr. Hero with the boyfriend
  • Got back to the boyfriend's house
  • My boyfriend got his WiFi adapter in the mail for his new computer!
  • While he downloaded some games, I pre-made all of my posts on my tablet I'm slacking on for the 30 day challenge
  • He left to go to work.
  • And here I am!
It sounds like a very boring day I know, but most days are even more boring. Normally I don't go to the post office, and then getting the WiFi adapter was great :)
