Number 7: Check

Number seven on the list was to "Do something out of character". I had the hardest time figuring out what that thing would be but it wasn't until after I did it that I realized. The other night I trolled. If you made a puzzled face at that, i'll explain. Trolling is when someone says or types something specifically to get a rise of emotion out of you, usually anger. I was on a chat site and this Chinese guy asked where I was from, I said Japan. If you know the hatred these two countries harbor for one another you can only imagine the interesting conversation I had. It is so unlike me to do something like that and i'm glad I got it out of my system. I know it sounds weird but doing something you normally wouldn't isn't always a bad thing.

Have you ever done something, only to later think "oh gosh was that me, did I do that"?

Number 9 (check)

I've been thinking about this one for a long time. Love is a complex emotion, one that even the smartest of us out there has a hard time explaining. I realize that I'm not always going to be happy with my body, but for the most part we are thick as thieves. We've grown and shrunk together and will continue to. I have beauty marks, scars, stretch marks, spider veins, and rough feet. But I also have long eye lashes, small hands, a who-nose as my friends call it, and i'm relatively comfy to lay on as I've been told. I also realized that my relationship with my body is a give and take arrangement. If I show it love and care, it will give it back to me. But if I don't take care of my body then things will get nasty! I love you body, you've been with me forever and will until the end, let's make it special!

Number 12 (check)

The other day I had the up most pleasure to go picnicking with my boyfriend. We sat on a bench by the river while watching boats float by. It was fairly sweet, dare I say almost romantic....until the creepy guy came. Let's just say he was a people watcher, but we were the only people there so he just watch us. yeah.... *cough* The cake was good though butter cream....yum!

Number 20 (check)

20. figure out what I want to do with my life. I won't go into huge detail because that might bore you dears to death and I wouldn't want that! I've been thinking you don't have to do just one thing in your life, and with that I decided in the early part of my life i'll pursue photography and then later in life I'll open a book store! I had a dream one night that I ran a book store and I woke up so giddy it would have put school girls to shame.

Number 3 (Check)

Today I got my first lottery ticket. Do I have unbelievable high expectations that my numbers will be the winning ones? No. But I kind of do have a small flame of hope that they might be. It's all in good fun anyway. I went with my dad on our way back home and the pen I used to write down my magic numbers leaked ink all over my hand. AWESOME! if that isn't a good sign I don't know what is. I called three close friends and asked them all for a number, which I used as my powerball numbers.

If you haven't the foggiest what i'm blabbing on about go HERE for my 21 things to do before I turn 21 list!

Number 17 (Check)

well I got to mark off number 17 from my 21 before 21 list. Although it wasn't REALLY by choice. I wanted to go a week without eating meat. I've gone 2! And it's not just meat i've gone with out. It's ANY fried foods, ABSOLUTELY NO PASTA, or CHEESE, GAH I LOVE CHEESE.... that means no pizza either...ug. CHINESE MUTHAFUCKER....GAH!!


okay i'm better now, not really. I got sick two weeks ago and still have not been stored to my regular health. I don't know what's wrong, I went to a clinic and they sent some blood off for a test.. hopefully they will call tomorrow! I'm afraid I might have aggravated my existing ulcer or have a new one... grr

Anyway that's that.

13. Paint a large artwork

I marked another item off my 21 before 21 list yesterday. A dear friend of mine came over and we had such a blast! We had been planning for a short while about doing some dart-balloon art. It is really simple and we actually hope to do it again, it was so much fun. And in case this sounds like something you would want to do, below is a break down of what I had to use. But I will throw my 2 cents in here, I bought 2 packs of one dollar darts. They were soft points obviously. It took us a little more than an hour to pop 12 balloons because they would bounce off! In the long run WE had a fun time just trying to pop them, but if you were going to do it on a larger scale I would advise a sharper popping tool!! Also don't hope to have all the darts when you're finished,I bought 6, only have 1 1/2 left hahaha!


I was able to do the whole project for $20.44
6 darts
15 balloons
4 paint colors
3 canvas boards
and for free I got a huge tarp from a family member for the floor and tape that I found laying around the house.

Number 11 done!

The other night and dear friend of mine and I went to go see a movie "Holmes" to be frank but that's another post for another time. We got a wee bit lost on the way so we missed the 4:30pm show we had originally planned for. We had to wait for the 7:30pm showing. To pass the time away we went to grab a bite to eat, reminisce, and giggle uncontrollably! We went to Burger King because I know they have a double cheese burger for a dollar...yeah i'm a cheap skate..

Any who I told her about my list and she was all for me getting it. I nervously went up to the counter and the girl asked for my order.

I said "okay I know this is going to sound weird but I want a double cheese burger with out the cheese."

She smiled and took a pause before punching it in.

I thought "CRAP! She thinks i'm an idiot..who in their right mines orders a double cheese burger and not want cheese..?"

So I began explaining why I was ordering it when I heard...

"You can't explain it to her, now it doesn't count!!" <-- friend

"WHAT?? No it still counts.." <--- me

"No you have to do it over" <--- friend

"This for here or to go?" <-- teller girl

hahahahahaha well I think it counts whether I told the girl my plans or not! heee.

Well 20 more things to do before I turn 21...need to get busy!
