Well as I foresaw, the week that followed my last post was definitely one of the busiest weeks I've ever experienced. Running and trying to catch up on sleep even though I got enough and eating and taking care of kids and going to a clinic and yelling out in pain of getting a muscle stretched. :P anyhoo, here's days 7-21 of the top 10 30-day challenge....whew that's a mouthful. and yes, i purposely skipped day 20 because i had no idea what to say and i still don't. i'll get back to it.... :p
30 Day Challenge
Day 07 - Your zodiac sign and if you think it fits your personality. I'm a Gemini...for the most part, I think it fits my personality. According to astrology.com, I love to talk: which is true, if I'm really close with someone and have something extraordinary to go on and on about. It also says I love collecting/sharing information since I'm "intellectually inclined," which is true too :P. I can never be boring, according to this astrology expert of a site ;P. Though I love to talk, I am also a great listener and am pretty well-rounded in the things that interest me. I'm just going to link the site to make things easier on y'all. :DDay 08 - A moment you felt the most satisfied with your life. You know, luckily, I have a lot of these. But the most recent one I recall is in February of 2013 and I was so satisfied I began to write poetry about my days for about two weeks straight. I just felt like all my decisions I'd made previously had finally molded me into the person I'd wished I could become.
Day 09 - How you hope your future will be like. It's going to be all about love. I hope I'll be doing what I love and surrounding myself with people I love. I also hope I won't have to go back to the hospital unless I'm having a baby.. :/
Day 10 - Discuss your first love and first kiss. Well, I would consider myself pretty lucky for my first love, as ****** loved me back, I think/as they said. No kiss. If I had to be honest, I don't quite remember much about my first love; frankly, I don't even know if it should be called my first love. I think I'd rather talk about Jesus. :)
Day 11 - Put your ipod on shuffle and write 10 songs that pop up. Just going to go on my YouTube and put that on shuffle.
1. "Bleeding Love" - Jesse McCartney & Leona Lewis
2. "Beloved" - Tenth Avenue North
3. "Blessed Be Your Name" - Matt Redman
4. "Eenie Meenie" - Justin Bieber ft. Sean Kingston
5. "Teenage Dream" - Katy Perry
6. "Pieces" - Red
7. "She Will Be Loved" - Maroon 5
8. "River Flows in You" - original song by Yiruma, ultra mix by Paul John
*awkwardly skips over The Fault in Our Stars trailer...*
9. "Naturally" - Selena Gomez and the Scene
10. "Two is Better than One" - Boys Like Girls
Day 12 - Bullet your whole day.
- i woke up at 11:11. :)
- i ate pizza and some delicious Chinese appetizer sort of thing.
- i came on the computer to continue blogging. yay! (lol)
Day 13 - Somewhere youâd like to move or visit. Taiwan would be a great place to move. But I'd definitely want to visit Europe. Not just the famous places like London, Paris, or Rome, but the little-known places like a random city in Germany, Austria, Hungary, Spain or Amsterdam or even Copenhagen.
Day 14 - Your earliest memory. I was sitting in the back of a car- not a mini-van or truck just a regular-sized car- and I was with my cousin, Stacy. I stuck out my thumb and index finger, saying I was two years old. She said that I should stick out my index and middle finger instead- what I had done meant seven. Yep. :D
Day 15 - Your favourite tumblrs. Too many to list XD. I like the ones with quotes, the ones with nail art, with pretty dresses/clothes, cute Asian trinkets, encouraging/motivational stuff, and apparently Latin Students Problems is a thing now? :D
Day 16 - Your views on mainstream music. Oh my Lord mainstream music is getting worse and worse. It's less about the voice and more about the editing. Ughhh. I liked the songs when my brother was in high school better (i.e. 7+ years ago).
Day 17 - Your highs and lows of this past year. I'm just going to assume this means 2013 since that was actually a full year. High: I thought I was completely off medication. Low: Exams sucked. High: Winter retreat...? Lows: I got two concussions. Also an awful recurrent case of the hiccups and sneezing... Low: Had to end up in the hospital again. High: only (inpatient) for a week. Low: was out of school a LOT. I think I beat my 31-day record from 9th grade :p High: my birthday :) High: went to Myrtle Beach High: went back to cross country High: junior year so far- so wonderful. ^_^
Day 18 - Your beliefs. I believe God is real and that he is all I will need. There's more but I'm still trying to think straight because food makes me a bit stupid.
Day 19 - Disrespecting your parents. I think it's totally unfair. They do so much for you and you just slap them in the face for it. I personally don't do this unless it's really really necessary.
Day 20 - How important you think education is. In a secular sense we need education to graduate high school, go into college, finish college, find a job, raise a family, etc. But in a spiritual sense I think if we pursue education, we're glorifying the Lord who provided us with so much to be educated on. I think the spiritual sense is far more valuable than anything we will leave behind in a secularist sense.
Day 21 - One of your favorite shows. Well Big Bang Theory is pretty funny. So there. :D
30 Letters Challenge
Day 07 - oldest friend.heh, you're getting pretty old now aren't you? XD it's okay age doesn't have anything to do with how awesome you are. i know i pray this a lot, but i mean it every time- thank you for always being there for me. and for writing that pretty awesome book i read every. single. day. :D
i can't believe you left before us. how could you do such a thing? now i'm home alone and now i can't play the guessing game with the garage door opening because the only person it could be is mommy. humph. thanks for annoying before you left though, considering we won't see each other in a month and two days. poopers. i love you big bro.
i hope i see you again at cross country this upcoming season! i really miss having art class with you. though you're undoubtedly better than me, you always had such funny things to say and i actually really liked watching you work because i can tell you love art. i really hope you don't quit XC senior year! it seems to be a pattern there at mason o.0.
dude. you are so...pretty. :P i love your hair and i really enjoy watching not only your bloopers but your vlogs with troian...:)
you are so inspirational. keep loving God and praising him, and i'll be right there with you even if spiritually :)
sorry we never met. mommy was just reminiscing to me about you yesterday. well at least now i know what kind of colors you liked :) if you were into nail polish then i know what designs i could do. again...i hope we can meet in heaven. if not...i hope i meet you in a dream or something hopeful.
you've brought me closer and closer to God and have taken care of me as your own child. for that i'm forever grateful and will always hold you dearly to my heart. i love the new relationship i have formed with your family.
thank you for understanding, diagnosing, prescribing, listening, and just being the first one who medically took care of my depression and psychosis. years ago, i never thought i would find a cure and never thought one was possible. but with you, i now know i was wrong.
i know you go by a different name now, but i miss you so much and i'll always associate you with that name. thanks for being so motivating and enthusiastic and you'll always be in my heart and writing. thanks for encouraging me to keep writing and just being an awesome teacher. whoever you teach now is incredibly lucky.
i had just ran two miles in the summer evening heat. thank you for adding ice to my water and completely abandoning the other person who was buying something else. i'll never forget your kindness.
