LFC just lost their opening match of the Premier League to West Brom.................................wow.

Don't know why I'm blogging about this because it's a depressing event but I had the urge to blog I don't know why...I'm so lazy right now I want to do homework but it's so late and I don't want to be all tired tomorrow but I haven't done anything yet and I have tons due omg I'm so unproductive I want to cry.

I've been watching Bones a lot lately and I'm having weird attractions to David Boreanaz. Seeing Booth and Bones together is so heart-warming but I'm feeling sa lonely. :( Ew, hormones.

Ugh, I hate World Studies so much rn, I have two two-paragraph things to write, I have a six-word memoir for Journalism due, I have a short multi-paragraph thing due for Business and I have English vocab words due...

Almost done with English.

Okay, why did I just blog about this. Okay, a picture to make this have a point.

PTX

They're an a cappella group consisting of four males and one female. I'm not one of those big, big fans so I'm not full of information about them. Just find out yourself, I guess, I'm really lazy right now but this is too amazing to not post.


They're amazing in my opinion so if they're mediocre for you...bye.

Another

So I'm gonna do another one of those questionnaires like I did yesterday because I feel like posting about something but I can't think of anything. Today was my first day of school...I guess I could blog about that but I'll do that some other time maybe tomorrow because I complete both first odd and first even day tomorrow. I have a two day rotation schedule, just so you understand the prior sentence.


A: Who was the last person to piss you off? What did they do?
This person, he was being a dick.
B: Do you miss your ex? What would you do to get them back?
Not really I guess, nothing.
C: If you had to choose between your best friend or your significant other dying, who would you choose?
No comment, despise choosing between people whom I love.
D: Everyone has a few demons, what’s your worst one?
Demons as in things that I do or idk, say (?) that make me guilty like a habit? I'm not sure.
E: Have you ever cheated on somebody?
Nope.
F: Are you a virgin?
Yes.
G: Do you believe in ghosts?
I watch horror movies and get so scared but I honestly don't know.
H: If you knew your girlfriend/boyfriend would be truly happier without you, would you leave?
Yeah, I guess.
I: If you liked someone with a terminal illness, would you still date them knowing they might not live much longer?
If it makes him happy then yes.
J: If you sold your soul, what would it be for?
Um, first of all why would I sell my soul? But if I did...it would be...for...actually, I don't know don't do this to me.
K: Would you ever kill someone? What would be a good reason?
No, nothing.
L: Have you ever told a big lie, one that you felt bad for? Did you ever come clean?
Yes, yes.
M: Is there anything that you’d never do for any amount of money?
Get locked in a room full of bugs and a murderer or something.
N: Would you consider yourself vain or narcissistic?
A hint of both, who isn't vain and/or narcissistic even if they don't consider themselves to be either one or both. Everyone has a bit of those two qualities in them.
O: Are you open minded, or do you judge people and things before you give them a chance?
Open minded. I wouldn't say I don't judge AT ALL because I tend to do that a little with the littlest amount of people. I only do if they appeal to me as something very obvious however, I do change my mind once I've met them. I don't judge and set my mind onto whatever opinion I've established.
P: Politics, what are your thoughts on them?
I don't get most of it but I know about corruption, democracy, socialism, all that stuff if it counts. Actually I should know a little bit about politics...but the question isn't asking that... Obama though.
Q: Do you prefer peace and quiet, or loud chaos?
Depends.
R: Religion, what is yours? Do you believe in a god?
I think I'm Buddhist...but I'm not a very good one. I don't have the Eightfold Path in my life...and I eat beef and I'm not very good with finding the peace within myself and all that.
S: What is your sexual preference (straight, gay, bi, pan, ace)?
Straight.
T: What is your favorite sexual position?
Scroll to 'F' lol.
U: Has anyone you knew ever died? If so, who?
Yes, my grandmother, my mom's cousin brother sooo I guess my uncle, and other people in my extended family, meaning my grandfather's brothers and sisters' families and whatnot.
V: Do you ever want children?
I guess, why not.
W: If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
The US of A, England or Spain.
X: Do you do drugs? Drink? Smoke?
No, no, no.
Y: Is there anything you wouldn’t do for love?
Giving up something that makes me happy.
Z: Would you ever have sex for money?
LOL NO.

I just realized that the letters before each of the question have a significance in the question...there's at least one word in the question that starts with the letter before the question. The word is not one of those conjunction words it's one of those, like, 'main words' I guess. Like for P, the word is politics. I think this only starts with 'f' though...'j' doesn't have it, and it stops at 't' HAHA. So I guess my theory's a little bit off but whatever. YAY! Now you feel like you're in third grade and want to punch me.

Q+A

I know most of you wouldn't care but I've decided to do a few (lol, 2) of these. I've been seeing them around and just never got to it. I've always been wanting to do one so just go away if you don't want to read this. I've found all of these on either tumblr or other blogs so. If there are same questions, I might answer differently in each one or they might be same, I just won't omit the repeated one because I'm too lazy. Btw, sorry if the text is of a different font, it's because I've copied it off somewhere and sometimes my laptop just copies everything like the background color, font, etc. even though I've set it to default settings on my blog. This is going to be a quite long post but I like these things so you will either find it interesting, weird or downright a waste of time, I frankly don't care, but it's your choice to leave, read on or read on a little then leave.

Alright, here we go.


I have the need to tell you this though, when I was typing the paragraph above...and well this text to, the voice in my head that reads as I type was the voice of SamPepper ok.


Here we go, the first one (copied off tumblr so I think the chat box format is there but DEAL, BTCH - my answers are italicized & in purple):




  • 1. What is more difficult for you, looking into someones eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they are telling you how they feel? When I'm telling them how I feel.
  • 2. Think of the last time you were REALLY angry. WHY were you angry? Do you still feel the same way? Oh this is going to make me sound like the fattest hippo on the planet but my mom told me that we were going to this place for dinner and they have the most badass noodles, fish and clams there. Like I cannot explain how good the food is (Chinese cuisine, of course) and I got really excited because I thought "Hey, what a good way to end the summer." but no, my mom decided to change plans without even asking anyone and asked my maid to cook. Now, this may sound like I'm totally unappreciative of my maid (who is really rude to me, by the way) and the food I have but...it's my last day of summer, let me have some good food please, Mom. I still feel a little bit annoyed but...I have something planned.
  • 3. You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You have enough time to make ONE phone call. Who do you call? What do you tell them? Okay, First of all, I hate thinking about dying in a plane crash because that's just a horrific way to leave Earth but I would call my mother. I would tell her that she means the world to me and that I wouldn't be the person that I am today (or was...if you know what I mean)
  • 4. You are at the doctor’s office and he has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? What do you do with your remaining days? Would you be afraid? I would so that I wouldn't be hiding anything from the people I trust and love, that way I would be able to live happily because holding something in would just make me miserable. I would just do whatever I want and live without a care in the world; I would be scared but eventually I would just have to accept it.
  • 5. You can have one of the following two things. Which do you choose? Why? Love and Trust. Oh, this is tough, really tough, but I would go with trust. Living without trust would just make you a worrywart, actually, no, it wouldn't make you just a worrywart, it would also make you a killjoy and a pain in the ass because of your constant worrying. People have lived their life without a partner and if I had to choose between love and trust, I would rather live without love.
  • 6. You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late even once more, you are fired. Do you take the time to save the dogs life? Why or Why not? I would save the damn dog's life. A lowlife that wouldn't take me saving a dog's life as an excuse would just not be worth working with. If I do get fired, I wouldn't mind because it was for a good cause. Even though it would be hard getting another job.
  • 7. Would you rather be hurt by the one you trust the most or the one you love the most? The one I love the most (as in affiliates I guess) because yet again, I would rather live with trust.
  • 8. Your best friend confesses that he/she has feelings for you more than just friendship. He/she is falling in love with you. What do you (or did you) do/say? If I was having feelings for him too, I would obviously be happy and confess to him too. However, if I didn't like him, I would just say that it's okay and it probably happens many times. I wouldn't make him stop, not because the relationship would never happen, but because I can't force him to do something so difficult for normal people to do.
  • 9. Think of the last person who you know that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give up one year of yours. Do you do it? Why or Why not? I would do it because she has impacted so many people's lives in so many ways that she sure as hell deserves to spend one more hour with her family. 
  • 10. Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend? Depends, I have some bad sides to me. I don't want to flatter myself but I think that I am a pretty trustworthy friend but other than that, I can't really say.
  • 11. Does love = sex? Hell, no.
  • 12.Your boss tells your coworker that they have to let them go because of work shortage, and they are the newest employee. You have been there much longer. Your coworker has a family to support and no other means of income. Do you go to your boss and offer to leave the company? Why or Why not? To be honest I wouldn't but I would feel so guilty about it. I, too, would have no other means of income but I may not have a family to support. If I do, the more the reason for me to not leave my job. I wouldn't be the only one in the office either. Also, I would live with the biggest amount of guilt in me for the longest period of time.
  • 13.When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt regardless of how difficult it was for you to say? Who was it? What did you have to tell the person? I'm not telling you that...even though this is a to be honest sort of thing. 
  • 14. What would be (or what was) harder for you to tell a member of the opposite sex, you love them or that you do not love them back? Telling them that I don't love them back even though I would have a lot to lose if I did tell them I loved them.
  • 15. What do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up? Why would it be hard to lose? THING? My inhaler...I would die without it.
  • 16. Excluding romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you loved them. Who were they to you? KRYSTAL, my other half.
  • 17. If there was one moment and one time in the last month what would you change and why? I don't really understand the one moment and one time thing but if I could change something from last month, I would probably not have taken the painkiller that my mom's friend gave me because it resulted in me having an allergic reaction and I had to carry heavy skis, my poles and walk in my ski boots all the way back to my chalet and stop skiing for the entire trip. I missed out on the Supertrail Run with my coach and the Supertrail is the highest elevated peak in Australia. 
  • 18. Imagine it is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear someone walking around outside your window. WHO do you wish was there with you? Probably my mom. Or my male cousin, don't get me wrong, I love my mom to death but she would just call me a ridiculous idiot for being so scared.
  • 19. Would you give a homeless person CPR if they were dying? Why or Why not? Uh, YES. Because he/she is a person regardless of his/her living situations.
  • 21.You are holding onto your grandmother’s hand and the hand of a newborn that you do not know as they hang over the edge of a cliff. You have to let one go to save the other. Who do you let fall to their death? What was your rationale for making the decision? I hate this. I shall not answer this.
  • 22. Are you old fashioned? In what way? I don't even know what old-fashioned is described as nowadays.
  • 23. When was the last time you were nice to someone and did NOT expect anything in return for it? I was nice to people in school today. I didn't expect anything in return, especially when I was nice to my new teachers.
  • 24.Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a broken heart, or never loved at all? Why? Never loved at all because why work so hard for something like true love when you know you're eventually going to fall. 
  • 25.If you could do anything or wish anything, what would it be? For the world to be a better place.
