 |  A little bit of spice to flavor the pot. |

I've never really gone camping or otherwise gone out into the great outdoors. The only time that barely comes close is one time I went on a church Core trip. It wasn't even my regular church but it was the only one that fit with our schedule. They had some group stuff that was not overall bad. But it can be intimidating sometimes being part of a group who know each other when you don't know many yourself. It was a little teeny bit scary being away from home. Even it was just for a few days. I especially can remember when this girl Jennifer dressed up as big foot to scare everybody. That was memorable. I'm glad to say I went and got a bit closer to my spirituality. There's not too much I can say for the outdoors other than I really don't see myself as ever being the outdoors type. But I applaud people who are. I just can't say that will ever be me. |
I think I can relate more to the escapism part. Since daycare, I would daydream about being a superhero, possibly like an x-men. When life is dull or stressful, I tend to turn to things to get my mind off it. I do lean towards fantasy/fictional the most. I don't think there're too many things I watch/read that I can relate too. The one show that does is the Thorn Berries. No one's an Eliza but around dinner time, it's obvious what the dog's saying. Mom related to Marianne, and apparently I relatable to Debbie, well I am an older sister but still. I think for me, it's more of an escape than anything else. Just to get away from real life and not have to worry what's going on for at least a little bit. B/c for most people, I don't think their lives are not quite like the movies/tv shows,etc. they enjoy. But that's just me. |
| Some people don't believe we went to the moon. I don't know if actually seeing it for themselves would really convince them if they would be stuck in denial. To go to Mars takes months. They're trying to colonize it now. Maybe a drive by wave and get a good snap shot of the red planet to show the folks back home. I don't want to be stuck out in the empty void of space indefinitely though. Jupiter though, I could get on board with. I always liked it for some reason. So being able to see it from the shuttle at least would be awesome. Maybe do a round about around Saturn. It's rings would be even more impressive seeing them in person. Shout out to the now dwarf planet Pluto. It needs some love. Coolest part about it, being one of the people to go into space & safely come back out again. Space is cool, but I'd also like to go home in one piece. |
There's this one time we went out to eat at Logan's. They usually have something for the kids. One of the things we got had a race for peanuts. Near the end, my dad smashed my brother's peanut and he in turn freaks out. Leading him to smash everyone else's peanuts in the process. It's funny now looking back on it. Nobody wins b/c hulk destroyed the peanut mobiles. |
| I am horrible at choosing favorites. It tend to like a couple about as much or equally, or at least close to that. I don't know but I seem drawn to the fictional more than the actual. I tend to jump around a lot. Even if I don't know enough about something I may be into just b/c I like something about it. At some point I found out about anime. For me it seems to have sucked in. Top two have to be One piece/hetalia. I don't know why or when it started but it is real. So far I've read more fanfiction and seen a few short clips/episodes. For me and other people it is like crack. Something that only makes sense after you've been hooked. So there you go. https://www.google.com/search?q=hetalia&espv=2&biw=1920&bih=979&source=lnms&tbm=... http://imaginetalia.tumblr.com/ https://www.google.com/search?q=hetalia&espv=2&biw=1920&bih=979&source=lnms&tbm=... http://scenarios-onepiece.tumblr.com/ So yeah in case you're dying to know more,there's you're sneak peek. Embrace the weird. {B/c things will get weird.} You're so welcome! |
Somehow the song Demons by Imagine Dragons makes sense in this instance. I don't have any verification of it, but I may suffer from mental disorder . Starting around 10th grade I think is when I think I realized that all was not well mentally. It seems to have become more obvious since I've been in college. Some point during my 2nd year there, I went once a month with a guy for 3 months. He was definitely in it for more, and I just wasn't. So much other baggage that I didn't feel was fair dumping on him. So that ended rather abruptly and I feel rather mixed still. Me and my brother we're people pleasers. I wanted my parents to be proud of me. I'm not sure how they'd feel about it if it was confirmed I had mental problems. I'd hope they would still be on my side. But sometimes I'm not so sure. I never thought of myself as I violent person and I hope I don't have anything that would lead to that. When I work myself up I sometimes think about being sent to a psych ward and never seeing the light of day again. How the folks would be ashamed of me and I'd stop seeing them. I think one thing that I'd be more upset about besides upsetting the folks, is losing my freedom. I'm not sure if it's all in my head and I'm just working up into a frenzy. Or if it's more than that. I just try to live day by day the best I can. After all this, I figure something better has to come out on the other side. Thanks for listening. |
The Wildcard Round! Today's WINNER, chosen by Virtual Dice from all eligible entries, will get 5,000 GPs. What's more important to you...one or two friends you can tell absolutely anything to, or any number of friends you can see only on certain occasions? I feel I'm already in that kind of a situation. I go to community college and people from high school there. As well as people from classes I've had before. They're two girls I email now and then. One from a previous class, another I just happened to meet and see on occasion. I have a few people on my phone to text/call,etc. I lost the number to one friend Emma. I feel bad about that. Another friend I haven't talked too for a bit,Jessie. I hope that one I can reestablish. It just feels like for me, it's generally me reaching out to others. I haven't mastered phone etiquette so I don't know. I know I have a problem communicating, it's one of my flaws. I think I am improving, though, little by little. I used to text Jessie at odd times of the day or night about lots of things. I haven't really done that with anyone else. I'm an occasional texter but that's about it. I'm not on the phone that much. I do better either in person or by email. |
| I can't be the only one that thought Candice resembled Hilary Clinton. Or am I? As far as who'd five-sixer choose:Ghostface Killa. It just seems the direction he'd go. I could be totally wrong, but there's my guess. Don't you worry child by Swedish Mafia House, the feat by John Martin comes to mind. ''Don't you worry, don't you worry child. Heaven's got a plan for you.'' I don't know, the song struck a chord in me and I liked the music. I think it's easy to get caught up in life's craziness. So being reminded that it all has a greater purpose can be real encouraging to those having a hard time. It all comes to a greater good in the end. |
| I don't think anyone wants to have to worry about the day they lose their mind. Some people have disorders already that they may or may not even know about. Some people want to know when they'll die. The vast majority don't. My grandpa on my mom's side lost his mind to dementia and it really was a blow to the family. Specifically for my grandma who had to live with it and kept it on the down low till it was too late to intervene. I'm sure she felt that that was her lot and she'd stand by her man. That's just the generation she grew up in. If there had been something like that back then where we could have found out about it sooner... But who can really tell? She may have still stuck by her decision anyway. You can't control the actions of others. You can't alter the past either. I think some people would be content to remain ignorant. I'll deal with it when it happens. Say you knew you had dementia/Alzheimer's beforehand. You can't change it, but you can try to get your affairs in order while you still have some sanity left. I think it'll all come down to whether you want to face reality or not. A lot of people may just want to cross that boat when it comes. Enjoy whatever time they got. Instead of worrying about that moment where their loved one loses their mind. You can't control a lot of things. All you can really do is love those close to you and let them know it. Be there for them and do the best you can. One day at a time. |
I would like to send a letter back in time to my grandma on my mom's side. There are so many things I want to ask now that I never thought to ask back then. So many things I would like to go over with her that I can't with my parents. I didn't think about losing her then so it didn't occur to ask those things then, in part b/c of age, and death seemed in the vast future. I'd like to think she would be proud of me now and could offer some advice that could help me further down the line. Maybe even get to know a little about our family history too since we only know a bit here and there. |
