This is how it works: Comment on this entry and I will give you a letter. Write ten words or phrases beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation of what the word means to you and why.
1. Fun: Of course fun has to be here. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have fun in some fashion every day. Whether its laughing with a group of people over some silly word, such as "summy yundae" or "feel of fortune", or just relaxing at the computer talking about random things with your favorite person there has to be some kind of fun during the day.
2. Forgiveness: I am a firm believer that forgiveness is something that should be given. I do not believe in the statement "Forgive and Forget", no one forgets something they have to forgive. If you have to forgive something then it usually had a strong impact on you, and you won't be able to just forget it. I much prefer "Forgive and let it go". If you forgive someone, then mean it. Don't then punish the person over and over for what they have done, punishment comes before forgiveness and not after. I don't think forgiveness should always be given out either, no one will respect you if you forgive them for everything. It shouldn't be something that you rarely do either, there isn't enough time in the world to sit there and be angry with someone.
3. Flowers: I love flowers. Especially those white lillies, and lilacs. Roses are ok too, but they just seem to be so traditional. I never expect flowers from a guy, but they are always great surprises. And if I expected them, then they would totally lost their specialty.
4. Flying: I love love love flying. Whether its taking a ride in an airplane, running and jumping on to a bed to get a little flight, or going hang gliding, I have always loved it. Especially hang gliding. I have only gone tandem twice when I was younger, but you never forget the feeling of just hanging there floating through the air. This summer I get to start training on my own, and I am so excited!
5. Food: Food is sooo good, I just can't understand why anyone would ever want to be anorexic or bulemic.
6. Flatulence: I'm sorry, but everyone does it. Eventually people will just have to get over the whacked noises your ass makes. Just be polite and dont be around people if you are going to smell. And don't do it in a car or tight spaces, that's just mean.
7. Fashion: I pretty much don't really buy in to fashion. I have always just gone with whatever is comfortable. I also don't have the money to stay fashionable, I'd rather get some cheap jeans and wear them over and over until there is a hole in the ass then buy an $80 pair of jeans that I probably couldn't find in my size anyways.
8. Felines: My two cats are the coolest, while being the dumbest at the same time. I love dogs too, but both my cats I have had for a long time and dont know what I would do without them when I went home. And now I get to have Pepper in Maine! :-D
9. Focus: I have none. I start working on one thing, and then I start thinking of something else and go do that. Then I realize I was doing something else, so I stop the second and go back to the first. Its a bitter cycle that probably creates much of my procrastination.
10. Friends: I don't know what I would do without them. Since being at college I have made the best friends I have ever had. Just this past break I realized how great my college friends really are, just by comparing them to my home friends. I know I can always count on them if I need someone to talk to, or hang out with. When you can have 3 hour conversations about absolutely nothing, you know you have a great friend. Im not the one that you call up because I have a car or a license, or because I actually have a brain. Now its just like, hey lets hang out...no strings attached. I kind of forgot that you can actually be friends without strings. So to my real friends, you know who you are, and I'm glad you are in my life.
