Day 30; Your plans for the next 30 days

Here we are. This is me. There's nowhere in the world I'd rather- *gets slapped* Seriously though, we made it. Sorry for the late night post, since wifi ran out at the loft I'm blogging on mobile data in bed. No spellcheck either so this is going to be raw. Anyway though... My plans for the next 30...

Day 27: A Problem You Have Or Have Had In The Past

I could give you a list as long as my list of rejections *awkward laughter* But I guess... Anxiety and depression, the usual stuff... I feel like I've addressed this before and I hate repeating myself. Tonight just ins't the kind of night I feel like getting into this. So I'll move to my third favourite...

Day 25: Someone Who Fascinates You And Why

Josh Feuerstein. A while back this... I won't stoop to his level, I won't be angry... *implodes*... Man. Posted a video called "Dear Mr Atheist." This obviously severely annoyed Atheists everywhere, including myself... He uses laws where they don't apply, he displays blatant ignorance to the atheist...

Day 24: Your Favourite Movie And What It's About

"You gotta break out the 'L' word." "Lesbian?" "No, the other 'L' word." "Lesbiansss?" "It's love, Scott, I wasn't trying to trick you." Scott. Motherfucking. Pilgrim. Scott Pilgrim started as a comic by writer/artist Bryan Lee O'Malley. Set in Toronto, Canada, Scott is the best 23 year old...

Day 23: Post 5 Pictures Of People You Find Attractive

Well... I could. But I think that'd just be... I dunno. Boring. Also, I don't have a lot of data left for the month. #StudentLife Instead, I'm going to tell you about them. And why. 1. Kat Dennings Do I need a reason? No. I love her, she's clever, funny, is one of my all time favourite actors and...

Okay, well here's a heavy one... Good god, I was in grade 11 this time two years ago... Where to start? I have my first piercing. I don't game as often as I used to.

Day 21: One Of Your Favourite TV Shows

I have too many... Way too many... But I'm going to talk about Smallville.

Day 20: How Important You Think Education Is

How important do I think education is? Immensely. 80% of the world's problems can be solved through proper education and intellectual stimulation. I think in whatever you do, whatever you love to do, you get to a point where you realise that you want to be better at it, you want to be more knowledgeable...

Day 19: Your Biggest Regret In Life

Regrets, right? We all have a pile of them laying down somewhere. Kisses we never went for, things we never said, people we never met, grudges we never let go of... This is a hard one... Choosing one that stands out specifically and makes it a defining moment in your life is a difficult task. For me...

Day 17: Highs And Lows Of This Past Year

Might get very real here guys, won't even lie, but you know what, that is okay. That is perfectly fine. Let's start with the lows. I actually failed two modules, and refused to write a third. One of them I passed because of winter school, but I was dealing with a lot of feelings of inadequacy...

Day 15: Write 15 interesting Things About Yourself

Day 14: Your Earliest Memory

Oh gosh... This is a hectic one... Uhm, okay... I don't remember much of anything from when I lived in Witbank, I was three... I have a lot of memories about when I was at pre-prep at Klein Duimpie, but this is in no chronological order, because it also functioned as an aftercare and both my parents...

Day 8: A Moment You Felt Satisfied With Your Life

Well... There have been many moments... The first dance I went to, as I awkwardly rocked from side to side while holding a girl at the armpits because if my hands were too low it would be ungentlemanly. There was the moment when I passed my calculus exam recently, for which I got a 70% (I AM THE CALCULUS...
