I Will Survive: Day Six (and counting)

Day Six

Applicable song lyric:
 "Today I don't feel like doing anything, I just wanna lay in my bed.
Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone."

Something making me happy:
I have a Sprite. Not the magical creature...the kind you drink...and savor....and is bad for you....but you love it anyway....

Something I learned today:
Some children are veddy stubborn.

Something I need to be more thankful for:
My brother.

My 11:11 wish:
I wish I was prettier.

Somewhere I want to be:
In bed. By myself....sleeping....

Something I would miss if the Earth were destroyed:
Sprite. Heck yeah.

Some thoughts:
I wanna do a duet to Set Fire to the Rain with Renaye, cuz it'd be epic. And, if I could choose, I'd want Shannon to choreograph it.  Cuz she's epic too.
Dancing is amazing and fun and epic and tragic and dramatic and just.....*brain explodes*

I Will Survive: Day Five (and counting)

Day Five

An applicable song lyric:
I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,
Confused at the grace that so fully he proffers me.
I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,
That for me, a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died.

Something making me happy:
I look perty :)

Something I learned today:
How to make Shepard's Pie.

Something I need to be more thankful for:
Jesus and all he's done for me. 

My 11:11 wish:
That this pain would just go away.

Somewhere I want to be:
In bed.

Something I would miss if the Earth were destroyed:
Ice cream. Yep.

Some thoughts:
I really need to learn not to get my hopes up. Maybe there's something to Helen's "expect the worst and don't be disappointed" theory thingamajig. Dodge ball is still amazing. Debating sucks like a bad kisser with chapped lips and onion breath.

I Will Survive: Day Four (and counting)

Applicable song lyric:
Cause maybe in the future, you're gonna come back, you're gonna come back around.
Maybe in the future you're gonna come back, you're gonna come back to me.


Something making me happy:
I just ate. Hehe.

Something I learned today:
I forgot how much fun dodge ball is.

Something I should be more thankful for:
Friends who don't freak out at me when I act like a total brat.

My 11:11 wish:
I wish I could be an amazing dance RIGHT NOW. (<---period.)

Somewhere I want to be right now:
Getting massaged.

Thoughts:
I rule at dodge ball. Renaye looks gorgeous in her new leotard. Helen is my best friend and I love her. La vie est belle.

I Will Survive: Day Three (and counting)

Day Three

An applicable song lyric:
If you ask me how I'm doing, I would say, “I'm doing just fine.” I would lie and say that you're not on my mind.

Something making me happy:
My daddy bought me creamy peanut butter <3

Something I learned today:
I never ever ever EVER want to be a single mom.

Something I need to be more thankful for:
My dad <3

My 11:11 wish:
That I could rewind my life to last year.

Somewhere I want to be:
In Anchorage, hanging with Helen.

Some thoughts:
I am never cutting my hair again.
My jacket is super warm and cozy.
Cleaning isn't fun.

I Will Survive: Day Two (and counting)

An applicable song lyric:

"You're beautiful, every little piece love, don't you know? You're really gonna be someone, ask anyone.
When you find everything you looked for, I hope your life leads you back to my door. Oh but if it don't, stay beautiful."

Something making me happy:
My jeans. I'm pathetic, I know, but they're so comfortable! (and, I look pretty cute in them, if I do say so myself).

Something I learned today:
Twelve year old boys are the most immature things in existence.

Something I need to be more thankful for:
My amazing, incredibly understanding friends.

My 11:11 wish:
I wish I could be psychic.

Somewhere I want to be:
Soaking in a hot bath.

Some thoughts:
Note: Do not put red nail polish under gold crackle...it doesn't turn out well.
We need more butter.
It's great to have cars that work, even when it's -20 outside.

I Will Survive: Day One (and counting)

So, I did steal this idea from my friend Helen, but in my defense, she said I could. There are 336 days until my 16th birthday, which is big, and it just so happens to be the year that the world is supposed to end. SO, I've decided to start this project and call it I Will Survive. Basically, I'll post a picture and answer these questions (and maybe occasionally switch them up) every day for your enjoyment.

Day One

An applicable song lyric:
"I'm tired of being what you want me to be, feeling so faithless lost under the surface, don't know what you're expecting of me."

Something making me happy:
My new tutu, hehe :D

Something I learned today:
That it's really hard not to talk over other people and just listen.

Something I need to be more thankful for:
My parents.

My 11:11 wish:
I wish I was in love.

Somewhere I want to be:
Lying on a sunny beach.

Some thoughts:
Some people need to just sit back and shut their mouths, because the rest of us have our own lives to worry about. Dance is altogether too hard and competitive, but I am so in love with it. Making biscuits isn't as fun as it sounds.

Getting Ready for Christmas Eve Party

Time to wake up: Leave me alone! I don’t wanna get up….just let me sleep, I’m tired!
Finally got up: I don’t want to eat breakfast, I just want to clean and be done with it.
1st hour into cleaning/baking: This isn’t so bad…we’ll be done soon anyway.
2nd hour into cleaning/baking: I should have eaten that breakfast…
3rd hour: My feet hurt, my head hurts, and I want to lie down and die.
3 ½ hours: Why do we even celebrate Christmas?
3 ¾: WHY?!
4th hour: *laying on the floor, face down*
1st hour of party: I am so happy that we have friends here to celebrate Christmas!
2nd hour of party: FOOOOOOD BABY......
3rd hour: I’m not cleaning the kitchen when they leave.
4th hour: When are they going to leave?
4 ½ hours: They’re finally gone….
1st hour of clean up: What is that smelly wasteland? Oh…it’s the kitchen.
1 1/2 hours: I need a hasmat suit.
2 hours, fifteen minutes: ALMOST FINISHED….
2 ½ hours: *dead on the couch*
