Back! Front, side, side.
a) Anatomy. I'm paying closer and more attention to all bodies. How they work, how I work, why they work, why I work. What we do when we work. What happens when we dont. I'm finding out there's a lot more to the body than just the simple to cruical movements it makes each day. I am fascinated by the human body.
b) Busy. I've been keeping busy. In many cases, for many people, this is a bad thing. Not for me, though. This is how I stay satisfied. I like making strict schedules for myself and making sure I follow them.
c) Cuddling. When I'm not wrapped up in his arms, and he's not in mine, things just arent right. This is my source of heat.
d) Dance. I cant stop dancing. Not just ballet, either. I've busted out some mad hip-hop moves, too. I'm a dancing nut. I caught myself shaking down on the way to Algebra today. [See q]
e) Education. I think I'm actually learning things in school this year. Because I'm allowing myself to do so. I'm even studying! It's weird. I know.
f) Fruit. Gosh, I cant stop eating it. I eat atleast 4 servings a day. Fruit smoothies, fruit pizza!!, raw fruit, fruit on waffles, any kind of fruit. I've had about 10-12 different types in the past week. I even ate a starfruit last Thursday.
g) Gahhhmuscles! Each fall, my dad, sisters, and I cut down trees, cut the trees up, throw the wood into a truck, drive the truck back to my house, unload and stack the wood. If it sounds retarded and hardly enjoyable, that's because it is. But hey, I am building muscle like crazy. It's an extra work out.
h) House-hold chores. I really dont mind cleaning at all. I like having everything very tidy and organized. Espeically my bedroom. I do a lot of chores around the house. When it gets cold, I find cleaning to be especially fun because you know that when you are done, you can sit and sip hot drinks. And you enjoy them more after harder work in colder temperatures.
i) Independence. I feel way more independent each day. I say this a lot, I know. But really, I'm learning to deal with every kind of situation imaginable on my own. This is important mostly because within the next few years, I will be on my own. I wont be able to whine and ask for help all of the time, and hopefully, by then...I wont need to.
j) Josh Russo. Is my alphabet.
k) Kittens. I used to hate cats, but lately, I cant get enough of them. They're so cute and fluffy! They are all outside cats, but from time to time, I bring them inside with me and we hang out.
l) Lottery ticket. Today, I got my Halloween card from Linda. Inside was a Halloween lottery card. How incredibly sweet of her was that? Very. I won ten dollars! I plan to have either Josh, or my mom get me that money and buy her one to send back. Who needs to be 18?
m) Money. I need it. I'm finding more and more things each day that I want to buy. For myself, for my friends, for memebers of my family, but yeah...for myself mostly. I bought 6 CDs this week. That was a large chunk of the money I had saved for my camera. I feel terrible that I want cash so bad. Believe me, I am happy without it. I just want to have the extra things. Everyone should probably hand me dollars.
n) Nutella. I'm not a HUGE fan of junk food, but this stuff is so good that when my mom buys it, I hide it in my room. Good Lord. I love it.
o) Old. I've had this great desire to look through old pictures, clothes, and everything else lately. And watch old home videos. Definitely old videos. I want to go antiquing so bad. I always get afraid that I, and many others, will forget about the past. I want to keep as many things fresh in my memory and heart as possible.
p) Pen-pals. I have awesome pen-pals. Three letters came in the mail today. I plan on taking the time to write some letters of my own tonight. (Kylie, Erica, Linda, Uncle Ger, Emily...) I hope I get around to that, anyways.
q) Q and Not U. I bought their new CD last week, and that was when the insane amount of dancing began. It's freaking awesome. You should buy it.
r) Rap. I just wanted to talk about music. I used rap as my word to do that. Sorry. I promise I do listen to some rap. What I really wanted to say, though, was that my taste in music really fluctuates. Just like anyone's. It seems that my music patterns really get screwed up around this time of the year, though. I dont mind hopping from the Rilo Kiley bus to the Orchid train.
s) Scrabble. Why dont I play this game more often? Josh, we're playing on Sunday. I give up on Monopoly.
t) Tazo tea. THE BEST HOT TEAS EVER! I am addicted. Really. Lotus Green Tea seems to be my favorite only because it is ultra subtle and soothing, which is what a good tea should be. I also have favorite tea cups. I have a rusty orange cup and an awesome blue cup. I refuse to use the others.
u) Undies. When I am alone in my room, there's a 99.72 chance that I am in my underwear only. It's not really that I enjoy seeing myself nearly naked, I just really feel more comfortable in less clothing. You can refer back to letter a for further reasoning behind this.
v) Vocabulary. I need to improve mine. Plain and simple. I took the PSATs last week and basically beat myself for not knowing an immense amount of words we needed to know. I used to sit and read certain pages of the dictionary. I need to start that up again.
w) Walks. I took a four mile walk/run a week ago and it was the most enjoyable thing ever. Since then, I've taken more long walks. I figure I will continue taking them until it gets too cold. And even then, I dont know if I will be able to give them up.
x) XBXRX. Freaking, I found a mix CD with them on it a few days ago and I'm so glad.
y) Yesssstemperaturedrop! The temperature did drop. It is freezing in the mornings. Cold enough that I can see my breath. I actually do say "yesssss" out loud. And I drag the s. Just like I typed.
z) Zipper. On Saturday, Josh and I cuddled in a sleeping bag. The zipper kept unfastening. Who would have guessed? It was really cute, though. And it definitely made me like the sound of zippers more.
