Day 7: a show or a movie that has changed you, and how

Oh… this is a good one. The Ring.

I saw it when I was in grade school, and it scared the living daylights out of me. I still get frightened from it every now and then, and I haven’t watched it since.

Another one is The Grudge, that scared me as well… really bad. I have always had a phobia of the dark, which is kinda unrelated, but my mind automatically starts running wild when I’m in a dark room, and The Ring and The Grudge are always the first things to pop in my head.

It actually really, really sucks.

Day 6: something you would like to change about yourself

As a person, I really wish I wasn’t so shy/socially awkward. Lately though I have really been pushing myself and putting myself out there, starting conversation with strangers and stuff to try and make new friends since I basically have none. Usually it ends up with my saying something confusing/dumb and I walk away feeling like a moron and never wanting to try again, but at least I’m trying.

Physically, I wish I was more athletic. But I can easily change that… I just haven’t yet. >_<

Day 5: something you would change about the world

I wish that people weren’t so greedy/selfish and materialistic. It irritates the heck out of me when people act like it’s the end of the world if they don’t get some dress, or a dang latte, or some $50 piece of crap t-shirt, etc. And it really irritates me when people won’t wear something unless it is ~designer~, or eat it unless it is name brand. Seriously? Who really gives a fuck.

Since it’s Tuesday and everyone is asking for it, I’m gonna leave a bunch of people questions in their ask boxes. So prepare yourself.

Also, you could just like this post if you want questions, then unlike it after I send you yours… that would make it a lot easier. ;-;

Day 4: how you think your life would change if you achieved your dream

Well… I would probably be broke for a long time, and my dream is actually something that I might end up regretting. So I would possibly have to deal with that as well. But if everything went perfectly, I would make a lot of new friends and have experiences that I wouldn’t have the chance to before. And I might land my dream job, whatever that may be… I haven’t figured that out yet.

Day 3: what you think your reason for being here is

I need a reason to be here? But really… I have no idea. It seems like sometimes, the only purpose I have is to complicate the lives of those around me.
 

Day 2: something that’s illegal but you think it should be legal

I skipped day one since I just did that question on the last challenge.

Sorry if you guys find these annoying, I enjoy them and it makes up for my lack of questions. :P I doubt that anyone even reads these though, heh.

Anywho… marijuana.

Johnny Depp is only 5 months younger than my dad. o_O

This is my 1,000th post… figured I would use it to introduce myself and talk a bit about my life, especially since I got a couple new followers this past week. :D Thank you guys so much for following!

My name is Katie, I will be 19 next month on the 23rd. For Christmas I am crocheting my mom a blanket, but I don’t think I will get it done in time so it will probably just be a scarf. I am asking for a Kindle for Christmas. I love to draw and craft, making things with my hands is something I am passionate about. I also love music. When I was in grade school I wanted to play the clarinet, but couldn’t afford it. I later wanted to learn the guitar and piano but never did… now I just admire music haha. My music library consists of mostly Tool, and classical music. People see me and they automatically stereotype me, this bothered me for a really long time and still does every now and then. I buy all my clothes off of clearance racks. I love to bake and cook, I have a major sweet tooth, and I love chinese food and pizza. And Chicago style food, you will see that on my blog a lot. I love questions, so please leave stuff in my ask box… that would be awesome. :)

Day 29 — Hopes, dreams and plans for the next 365 days

I want to get a tattoo, successfully break it off with my husband and move back to Chicago, get my license and a car, go to my first concert, enroll in some sort of college (I want to go to become a real estate agent), get my Etsy account up and rolling finally… selling something would be nice too. Lose a ton of weight. So far that’s all I got.

What music did I like before Tool? Seriously. I’m sitting here trying to think of what to download, and I can’t think of anything else, save a couple of songs. Oh my gosh… music suggestions please?

Day 28 — This year, in great detail

In great detail? How about minor detail, haha… I have a really bad memory.

I went to Busch Gardens for the first time, it was awesome. I saw my first parade. On our one year anniversary, we stayed in a really nice hotel and I will always remember that night. I tried champagne for the first time, it was gross. Josiah turned two. I got my permit. I got in a car accident (my first and only, I hope). I dyed my hair turquoise. I got a new laptop, which broke two months later after falling off the couch. I had to deal with my apartment flooding and destroying the bathroom in the unit below us. I signed up to be part of the art committee around here, I forgot what it’s called… no one would sponsor me. I learned to crochet. I seriously contemplated suicide, was probably two pills away from overdose. I’m going to undergo my first surgery pretty soon. I took my first road trip… 2,500 miles in two days, and it was amazing. I saw the most stars I have ever seen in my life, I was so amazed I started to cry. I kissed a girl. I surprised my sister by going back home for her sweet 16, even though she found out about it before I got there. I gained about 15 pounds, gonna lose it all next year. And I can’t think of anything else.
