Can not do it!

To anyone who was actually looking forward to me finishing the 30 day challenge, I couldn't. It was fun at the start but it just got really tedious and boring, especially when I didn't have much passion for what I was writing aboot (Canadian haha).

Day 24 - Your favourite movies and what they are about


Marie Antoinette -
The life of the last French queen Marie Antoinette.

Titanic -
The story of the ill fated ship, the night it sunk, and about finding your one true love no matter how different they are to you.

Trainspotting -
So this one is pretty much about drugs, being on drugs, being weened off drugs, death from drugs. Babies crawling on roofs.

Taking Woodstock -
Self explanatory, about the world famous music festival Woodstock and the man who made it happen, Elliot Tiber (Teichberg).

Before I go, I am soooo excited to go shopping for stationary and room stuffs from Kikki-K. And I really need to re-paint my bedroom. I'll put that on a to-do list for the holidays!

I think i'm going to shower then watch Taking Woodstock, it's seriously SOOOO good, I could watch it over and over and over again!

Day 22 - Changes in the past two years

Well, I'm not too sure that I have had many changes in the past two years. Probably just the usual growing up and stuff like that. The only things that I can currently think of are:

• Cinda moving to Cloncurry
• Kristen moving out of home and being pregnant
• Finishing school in 13 days
• Friends moving away


Anywhoooo, I painted my nails in respects to summer, with a nice pastel pink! I also got a taupe colour nail polish (yay) and a kind of maroon one as well.

Multiple days!

I'm so sorry that it has been so long, I just haven't been motivated to write anything (not even to do the 30 day challenge.) So I will do the ones I have missed out on now!

Day 16 - Your views on mainstream music

In my opinion, what IS considered mainstream music now, on the radio there is music from almost every single genre. Once when alternative was considered weird, it is now considered the norm to listen to it every day. I think that people shouldn't be afraid to listen to what they want to. If it isn't considered mainstream then it will be one day.

Day 17 - Your highs and lows of this past year

Highs:
Getting WAY better marks in school, although I am still scared to ask the math teacher my marks.
Finding my formal dress.
Getting my lovely MacBook :)
Having good times with friends and family.
Soon being an aunty
Graduating high school (not that it has happened yet, but there are only 15 more days left!)

Lows:
Going to hospital >:|
Fighting with good friends
Finding out that Hekla is moving
Finding out that Hekla uses Tumblr (haha)
Graduating high school

Day 18 - Beliefs

Um in all honesty i'm not sure what to write here, beliefs about what exactly? I believe that if you look back over the past 17 days you will find a lot of my views and beliefs on EVERYTHING.

Day 19 - Disrespecting your Parents

As a normal part of being a teenager I think it comes naturally a lot of the time haha. But when it is that bad to the point that you can't even talk to them, then you should re-think what you have been doing. Fair enough if it is just a fight and you aren't talking for like 1-2 days, but if it is so constant that you don't even look at each other then yeah, thats bad.

Day 20 - How important education is

Everyone should get the chance to have a good education no matter how rich or poor they are. That is why I don't like private schools. They get money from all of their thousands of dollar enrollments, then on top of that, they get extra money from the government (which will be more than what public schools get) so it's a pretty gipped system. All in all, I am happy with the education that I have been given, I think that going to a public school has allowed me not only to get an education in school subjects but it gives me a more experienced outlook on life, knowing that I have to make a life for myself and not to depend on mummy and daddy's money. I'm sorry if this sounds like some hate thing against private schools, but I do think that they are somewhat more naive about what real life is like, because more than often they do have their parents money to fall back on if something goes wrong. Maybe i'm the only one who thinks this but oh well.

Day 21 - Favourite show(s)

I can NOT in any way choose just one show! So here is my list:
Glee
Pretty Little Liars
Entourage
Family Guy
Gossip Girl
Americas Next Top Model

um I know there are so many more! But I just can't think of them all at the moment because I just downloaded an episode of Pretty Little Liars so I am really keen to watch it!

Day 15 - Your favourite tumblrs

I actually don't use Tumblr, so I don't have any favourite sites :s
By the way, I swear i'm the only person who is actually attempting to finish the 30 day challenge, but I think it has made me a crappy blogger, seeing as I am not very passionate about these subject, but do not fear! I am off to a Halloween party this weekend, so there will be some pictures and information about it on Sunday probably!

Day 14 - Earliest memory

I am so super keen to quit this 30 day thing right now!

My very first memory I think would have to be of just playing under the house in summer, I had this small tent with Elmo and some other characters from sesame street on it, and even thought it would be terribly hot outside, under the house, sitting on that cold cement was pure bliss. Especially when you didn't have a pool and were only allowed under the sprinkler during 7pm - 7am. I think I will buy a sprinkler, one that rotates and Asha and I will run under it and she will probably get dirty but it will be fun so it wont matter!

Day 10 - Discuss your first love and first kiss

Alrighty so my first kiss was when I was 12 in grade 7 with my "boyfriend." It was umm, not very special at all. We were coming back from our camp at Moreton Bay and we were on the big barge thing and everyone else in grade 6 & 7 were like standing above us without us knowing. It was kind of embarrassing. So once again, I think that due to my age, I can't write about my first love, because I don't believe that I have experienced anything near that yet.

Parlez - Vous Français?





Me? No I don't, well not yet anyway.
Today was possibly the most exciting day of my life so far, I asked my close friend Kristiana if she wanted to come with me to France at the end of next year. I'm so excited that I don't know how to explain it. I think it's the whole leading up process that fascinates me the most. Getting my very first passport, booking flights, saving money for something non materialistic that I can carry with me for my whole life. But then again I am scared because I have;
1. Never been out of Australia and,
2. Never been on a plane

France is really my one ideal destination in life, and that being the first country that I visit, well to me that is special. And then the thought of so easily being able to travel to other European countries also excites me very much. While there I would like to travel to:
• Sweden
• Switzerland
• London
• Ireland
• Italy

But I doubt that we will visit too many other countries, maybe just two. Well anyway, I hope that Kristiana is as excited as me! But there is a long way to go till we can actually put these plans into action, Kristiana is being very thoughtful and making sure that I think about the money that I would need, if I didn't plan on going with her I probably would have just gotten a credit card with a large amount of money on it and gone, which wouldn't be very good for me :) I will also get to see my long lost little Frenchie, Lucie!

I didn't want to write about my 30 day challenge today because I feel that I have pretty much already answered that one in the "Where do you see yourself in 10 years?" question.

Au revoir x

Day 8 - A moment you felt most satisfied with your life


All I really have to say on this topic is that I believe that seeing as I am only 17 and haven't done many accomplishing or satisfying things in my life, I will only truly be able to answer this when I am old and have multiple great grandchildren.

So here is a playlist for the day:

1. Holiday - Dizzee Rascal
2. Black & Gold - Ellie Goulding
3. Swimming in the Flood - Passion Pit
4. Boys Don't Cry - The Cure
5. Walking on a Dream - Empire of the Sun
6. Beautiful Boys - CocoRosie
7. June Evenings - Air France
8. Punk Roses - Daft Punk ft Outkast
9. Somebody to Love - Leighton Meester ft Robin Thicke
10. Like A Virgin - Glee Cast

Day 7- Zodiac sign and if you think it fits your personality



Sun in Taurus
Moon in Aries
Ascendant in Aries

Sooo to a lot of people like me this probably doesn't mean anything. According to the website that told me this, it will tell me more about my personality. After reading it, I agree with about half of it.

Agreed personality traits:

Some of your most outstanding traits are perseverance, stubbornness, and practicality. You are ambitious and want to achieve permanence in life.

When something tries your patience, you are apt to become violent without warning.

At some point in your life you will undoubtedly organize and conduct some significant enterprise and achieve a position of prominence.

Extremely active and capable of displaying ambition, impulsiveness, courage, and boldness in order to satisfy your desire for prominence in the world.

Anyway, at the moment im kinda not 100% committed to writing about this, but all in all I am apparently stubborn, earthly, materialistic, sensual, and apparently have a very persuasive pull over other people, which im not to sure is true, is it?

Day 5- A time you thought about ending your own life



Wow, how fucked up are the last two photo's. Well I'm not 100% sure what to write about this topic, I just read what another person wrote in answer to this and quite honestly I thought it to be a very offensive reply. (saying that people who commit suicide are cowards.) Some people have just been pushed that far that they think that ending their own life is the only way out. Personally the only things that I can say are that I haven't thought of ending my own life, but I have thought of what my funeral would be like and who would come and if anyone would care. But knowing that I could have a positively awesomely, beautiful life in the near future, pretty much stops that thought from ever entering my head! :)

Have a good weekend, I know I will be. At work..... not

p.s I'm now on Twitter for anyone who reads this blog and is on Twitter and feels like following me :)

Day 4 - Views on religion





So basically my beliefs on religion are pretty simple, don't preach to me and I won't preach to you. I believe that everyone has the right to believe in what ever they want, but I think it is unfair when they try to force their values on others. For example in primary schools, I think that having religion as a compulsory study in public primary schools should be banned, even children of the ages of 10-12 (which are the years that religion is taught, well was in my school) have the right to make that decision.

In other news, there is chocolate like ALL over my computer keys :s
I just finished watching the Human Centipede, I wouldn't recommend it because it kinda sucked!
And I am about to watch Nightmare on Elm Street (the new one)

Day 3 - View on drugs and alcohol

Okay so I will write about these separately starting with Drugs;
Personally, I think that if you are a constant user of drugs, then that is stupid on your part, if you are a constant user of hard drugs then you should just kill yourself already. If you use something like natural marijuana that is pure and has nothing added to it, and you are only using it occasionally, then I don't really think there is anything wrong with that. It is the individuals choice and i'm not going to go preaching my views to someone, unless they are a close friend who has started using, then I will.

Alcohol;
I'm not really one to judge someone on their alcohol consumption, as long as it isn't over the top and all the time then I think the occasional drink with friends or at a party is alright. Just as long as you don't plan on driving and such.

Day 2 - Where I will be in 10 years



The fact that I will be 27 in only 10 years scares me a little, I don't want to get old (not that 27 is that old but it's close to 30 which is even closer to 40 which is closer to death.) So where will I be?

• Married to a handsom, loving, funny, charismatic man whom I will have met overseas
• Living in either France, Sweden, Switzerland or New York with a holiday home back in Australia
• Own a successful company that I love
• Have two dogs either Pugs, Dachshunds, Dalmatians or French or English Bulldogs
• Probably one child, preferably a girl

But overall I would just like to be happy in doing what i'm doing and who I am with. Sometimes I like looking to the future because it is exciting, but then what is better than living for the moment right now?

I'm not looking for anyone, doing the whole waiting for someone to look for me thing I guess haha. It doesn't help when your stupid ex calls you at inconvenient times of the night though.
