Day 26

Day 26: What are some things that make you feel warm and fuzzy?

Well, for starters, I LOVE baby animals! I can't help but to squee or want to hold them, whether they are tiny puppies or kittens, or polar bears and hippos.

When the boyfriend does something small, but still really thoughtful. Like one time, he was really late getting home, and I couldn't get him to answer the phone at all, and I was REALLY starting to worry he had gotten in a wreck, or something was wrong. I went outside as soon as he got here, and he had stopped and waited in a long line at the drive thru to get me a Dr. Pepper, because he knew that we had run out at home. It was pretty awesome, even though it was mixed with the worry... haha

When I get to spend time with my really close group of friends, I would definitely describe that as warm and fuzzy. No matter how long we have been apart, we are always able to pick right back up where we left off. There is never any awkwardness and we usually spend our time catching up, cuddling/watching movies, or drinking and karaoke. (PS! I MISS YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!)

Hugs... Hugs make me so happy. They are one of my favorite things for sure. I love the feeling of having someone's arms wrapped around me, the safety it seems to provide, whether it be my safety, or me providing it for someone else (ie my niece).

Day 25

Day 25: A song to fit your mood right now

After writing that letter, I'm a little depressed, but I realize exactly how much I love and appreciate everyone that I am close to. I love this song, because no one knows what is waiting for us after we die, but as long as we love the best and most we can, then we've accomplished all that we can.

Day 23

Day 23: A letter to someone, anyone...

I thought about writing a letter to bad customers, and people who are in general mean, or ignorant... but I decided to write a different kind of letter. This may be kind of a tear jerker, so if you aren't into super sad/depressing blogs, you might not want to read this.

Dear Granny (my great grandmother who died around 5 years ago),

I've been thinking about you a lot lately. I've been thinking about how amazing of a woman you were. You were a spit-fire lady, and didn't take any shit off of anyone. Even in your frail state near the end, you were easily one of the strongest women I've ever known.

You were 20 years old when you married Grandpa. You took on more responsibility than anyone I know when he went into war and you had to provide for your children and work all along. You made tough decisions that always turned out to be the right ones. You upheld your morals and shaped mine today.

When I think about you, I hope that you would have been proud of me... of the decisions I've made, of the people I love, and who I am. I think that you might understand me better than some of the people I'm closest to now.

I still think about that time we laughed so hard in the kitchen until we were crying and everyone looked at us like we were crazy, no one thought it was funny except for us. At your funeral, you weren't even a wisp of the woman I knew, I couldn't even look in your casket. I was broken-hearted. I was so upset that I didn't get to spend as much time with you as I would have liked. Even now, I still regret that we lived so far away, but in retrospect, the time we spent together was made even more precious because of the distance.

I miss you everyday.

Love always,

Sheritta

Day 22

I am bad at blogging. They say that the best thing about the 30 day challenge is that it helps to create a habit, so you can blog every day.... I'm just not sure why I can't keep up with it. I need to figure out some way to remind myself.

Day 22:

Do you have any piercings or tattoos?

My ears are pierced, I used to have double holes, and a cartilage piercing but they grew up. I also had a Monroe piercing but had to take it out when I was looking for another job, and it grew up as well. I loved it so much though, that I'm currently trying to find a job where I can get it again, and it won't matter :)

I have two tattoos as of now. I have a heart on my lower back, and a dark mark on my left forearm. They both have pretty special meanings to me, but I feel like everyone is so over hearing about tattoos and meanings... lol

Day 21

Day 21: Your favorite picture of yourself of all time and why

I think that this is probably my favorite picture of myself. I remember this day and I genuinely felt pretty when I took this picture. And later a friend told me that he thought I was pretty when I was happy... It was just one of those things that stuck with me. Also, my face is clear of acne, my hair was cute, and my makeup was perfect... :)

Day 20

Seriously, I suck at blogging everyday... I just am not good at this. I try to keep up, but I forget. I need to set some sort of blog alarm or something... haha

Day 20: Name all the places you have lived

Well, I'm assuming you mean towns, because I'm not going to list all of my addresses... haha

I was born in Arkansas, and lived in Flippin/Yellville until I was 6ish. We moved to Orangefield, Tx. Then a few years later, we moved to Mauriceville, and when I graduated high school, I moved to Beaumont. Hopefully soon I can add Austin, Tx to this list.

Day 19

Day 19: Name a tv show you have become addicted to

There are several television shows I'm addicted to. Some of them are quite shameful.

These are the shows I can't live without:

Grey's Anatomy

The Office

Parks and Recreation

Glee

Jersey Shore

Modern Family

Off the Map

I've seen every episode of all these television shows. It makes me really sad to think of the cast changes and the shows ending. I hope you guys don't judge me too harshly... haha

Day 18

Another tough one!

Day 18: What do you want to be when you get older?

Well, I am older. At least, I am old enough that I should be doing what I "wanted to do when I grew up" at least... And I'm not, not yet anyhow.

I don't really want a traditional job. There are so many things that I want to do. I kindve want to be a Renaissance Woman, a Jack(Jane?)-of-All-Trades if you will. I want to be able to do alot of things, but not actually have to WORK to get money. I want to do the things I love, and the things I'm doing now just aren't it.

I would like to be a chef, a crafter(well, to actually make money off of it anyways), a photographer, a bartender, an artist, a model, a cosmetologist... I want to work as a Disney character in Florida, I want to be a fashionista, I want to own a food truck.

Most of all, I want a job where I can take pride in the things I create, and make people as happy as Libby(my friend's daughter) was when she saw Toodee, the felt animal I made. I want to base all of my future work's integrity on happiness. If I'm not happy and if I'm not making people happy, how can I take pride in anything that I do?

Oh, 6:30 am... you bring out this person I don't like to show people.

I want to make YOU happy.

Day 17

Ok, well I know I dropped the ball again today, but I got a few big things off my plate today. I finished editing the photos for my brother's girlfriend, I finished designing their baby shower invitations, and picked up all the supplies to make the cake for the shower... And I FINALLY finished the repairs/re-making the plush Toodee doll for a friend's daughter. All the while, I've been watching Firefly, a requirement for the new RPG we are starting, Serenity. I can't believe I haven't watched this before. It's one of my new favorite shows. I only have two episodes left and then the movie.

Anyway, to today's assignment... It's kindve a downer...

Day 17: If the world were to end tomorrow, what would you do with your remaining time on Earth?

This is a super tough one... Considering I'm exhausted and all I really want to do is sleep, that is about all I can think about.. In actuality, I would probably normally say something like: I would spend time with loved ones and cherish our time together... But in reality I would probably want to party pretty hard. Think about it, no hangover or consequences the next morning. I won't go into details, but I would probably try alot of things I haven't ever tried before. And probably let a select few know exactly how I feel.

I think I'm going to get ahead of myself and post the post for today. geez, I'm tired. But seriously, I love you guys. Make me post!

Day 16

Day 16: A picture of someone you have a crush on

It's this guy...

The boyfriend...
He who makes me laugh...
The guy with the beard...
That nerd...
The king of goofy...
My best friend...
The guy who pretends to be mad to make me laugh...

The man I'm in love with, the guy with my heart, the one who changed everything.

I love you, BB.

day 15

Day 15: 5 pictures of celebrity crushes!

Alan Rickman

Jeff Goldblum

David Duchovny

Gillian Anderson

Keira Knightley

I totally have girl crushes. I mean, I'm not a lesbian, but these girls are hotties, and I wish I could be them.

Day 14

Day 14:

Three confessions of your choice...

Hmm... Ok well this is hard. I'm pretty open with most of my info, but here goes.

#1: On Friday, I got a tattoo based off of Harry Potter. I'm an uber nerd, but because I was afraid it was going to look too gothic, I changed it up a bit, so it is customized and no one else in the world has the same tattoo as me.

#2: I watch Jersey Shore. I really don't like for people to know that, but I love it. I want to be Snookie's best friend. She is so funny, and while she may be dumb, I feel like she has a good heart. She would probably be a better friend than some of the ones I have now... haha

#3: I would say yes

Also, I'm really sorry that I haven't been posting. I have a ton on my plate right now. I have a plushie to make, Senior photos to edit, baby shower invitations to design, a cake to design/make for a baby shower, photos to edit from a photo shoot from my friends, ship items for ebay, and to finish revamping my etsy website and to make a ton of jewelry and felt animals to put in my shop.

Plus, I have to actually work. The boyfriend and I have been pretty busy this weekend. I really miss having nothing to do except lay around and watch tv. Also, his schedule change has really screwed things up, for me at least. It has completely thrown my schedule out of wack, but it will be better soon, I think. Thanks for sticking with me!

Day 13

Day 13:

A screenshot of your Desktop.

I LOVE SNAPE!!! Also, Alan Rickman is dreamy :D

Day 12

Day 12:

What is your favorite quote?

"Nothing takes the taste out of peanut butter quite like unrequited love"-- Charlie

Brown

Being in love with someone who isn't in love with you takes all of the joy out of life, even the smallest things are fruitless and boring. Been there, done that...

I'm in love, and loved back now, so I my peanut butter is full of flavor.

Day 11

Day 11:

If you could only live off of one food for the rest of your life what would it be?

Easily it would be tacos from Salsita's. They are delicious, next time I eat there, I will take photos of them, and share the deliciousness with you.

Day 10

Sorry. I have been really busy Excuses, excuses... anyway

Day 10:

Pet Peeves

My biggest pet peeves have to be bad drivers and leaving cabinet doors open.

Bad drivers are no fun, learn to use your turn signals, don't slam on your brakes, make sure your brake lights work, and don't cut me off.

I HATE when people leave my cabinet doors open. My brothers used to do it growing up, and it just annoys me. Sometimes, the boyfriend does it, but I have him trained pretty well.

I will go update the rest of the days I missed! Sorry!
