in general

Day 09: Within the past few days, I am proud of finishing summer school with A’s, continueously staying strong in trying to lose weight and get healthy, and for working.

Those are pretty basic things, but now that I think about it, you should be proud and own all accomplishments, big or small. So there it is.

Day 10: when I am happy I listen to Matt and Kim, or MGMT, Yiruma or… well basically whatever I like.

when I am sad: I listen to “possibility” by Lykke Li or however you spell it.

When I’m bored, anything to get me un-bored. haha

hyped… usually techno, or up beat hip hop, or pop. something that makes me want to dance

When I’m mad… i don’t raelly listen to music, but if I did I would probably listen to some rock, or something soothing to relax me like my morning jacket.

I would never be able to name specific songs for this question, it’s just too difficult.

Short term goals for this month and why:

Goals:

My goals for these 30 days are to make some money, reconnect with the big man upstairs, lose some weight (actually a lot more weight), and have a good freakin’ time.

Why:

make some money so I can spend that money on things I would like. reconnect with God so I can get back on track to being a strong Christian, lose weight so I can be healthy (and look goood), and have a good freakin’ time because I have been working and going to school all summer, so I FREAKIN’ deserve it. But that is pretty self explanatory. 

Day 06: My favorite super hero is Batman. Probably because he is unconventional. He doesn’t conform to what everyone thinks should be a super hero. He just does what needs to be done, regardless of whether or not people will like him for it. He isn’t concerned about his image. He just does his thing.

Day 07: A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on me:

Day 02: the meaning behind my Tumblr name was based on the idea that this blog was going to be about whatever I thought, whenever I thought of it. It’s just general things about me, how I think, what I like, etc.

Day 03: A picture of me and my friends

My closest friends. Christina and Amy.

w/ Christina and my Davis pals: Ana and Natalie.

My second family/church.

Day 04: I wish I didn’t bite the skin around my fingers, and I wish I did not procrastinate.

Day 05: A picture of somehwere I’ve been to

(this picture basically sums up one of the best camping trips I’ve ever had. Washington/Oregon 2009)

I am at the point of my summer, where I feel the need to refocus. This is my last week of school and I’m getting into that “I want to be done with this crap” slacking off mode. My goals in general have definitely been slacked off on. Not necessarily saying that I haven’t been working on them, because for the most part I am well on my way of reaching some/most of my goals. But needless to say, I should probably a lot further along than I am right now. So, this brings me back to having to refocus. Refocus and finish summer school up right. Refocus and get healthy …faster. Refocus and reconnect with God. Refocus and spend more time with loved ones. This midway mark of summer is my point of refocusing and charging through the rest of this summer at full force. I want to be able to be at the end of summer, looking back on it and feeling proud and accomplished for what I got done this summer and then look forward on how to keep my life that way through my 2nd year of college.

Here we go!

This could be interesting. Part of me would like to answer all these things now, but spreading them out within a month’s span might trigger some different thoughts. So I guess we’ll see how interested this can keep me. 

Feeling so discouraged right now. Every time I feel like giving in, I need to remind myself how bad I want this. (Plus all the things I’ll get out of it, haha.) But seriously, it’s becoming so frustrating that’s it’s all so wishy washy. I need some freakin’ stability with this already.
