30 Days of Taylor Swift
Posted on: September 26, 2010 at 4:28 pm. 9 comments
So, I’m on day 25 of the 30 Day prompt. But I also want to start a 30 day Taylor Swift blogging Challenge, to be finished in time for her new album to come out on October 25th. To finish it then, I need to start it today. So for the next 5 days I’ll be doing two, but after that it will just be one. Hopefully it doesn’t get confusing or too messy. If it does (which I doubt), I’ll just stick to the Taylor Swift one, as this one’s almost over anyways
To see the list for the 30 Days of Taylor Swift, click here. & The first question for that:
Day 01 – The first Taylor Swift song you heard
Tim McGraw. I remember I had heard my sister talk about it, but I never really paid attention. I guess I heard it at the time it came out, because it was her very first single & I first heard it on the radio. I was going through a terrible time (that relates back to december 8th), and I heard the lyrics “September saw a month of tears, and me thanking God that you weren’t here to see me like this”. Because while my month was December, I had spent the entire month crying, and being glad no one could see me crying. I listened to it non stop, until things seemed to be getting better. Her next single, Teardrops on my Guitar.. had a bit of the same effect on me the first time I heard it, when I had new guy problems a few months later. Her songs are just amazing, and I can relate to almost every single one of them. Tim McGraw was second on my most played list, with over 930 plays until I recently rebooted my computer & lost my iTunes data.
And for the 30 day prompt, Day 25 – Do you believe in love at first sight?
I do, actually. There are times I barely believe in love, but I do believe in love at first sight. It probably has something to do with the guy in my favourite picture ever, but I did start believing in love at first sight after I met Jake. I’m not saying I loved him. I mean, I had met him once. But as soon as I saw him, I had the biggest..infatuation with him. It was just the fact that I could feel so connected SO FAST that made me believe that others could too. There are people who say that when they met their husband/wife, they just KNEW from the start it was going to work out. And I believe that. Because for me, it’s not so much as you know you love them right from the second you see them, it’s that there’s an instant connection that strong enough to make you feel like things can work, because if the connection was SO STRONG that soon, you just think that it can only get better.
Though, even if it is love at first sight it might not work out, but I still believe in the concept. Though not many people I know do believe in it.. Do you?
Also, I have a few questions for you guys. I’m thinking of getting myself either an SLR camera or a new laptop, as a birthday/christmas present to myself (since they’re about a month apart. I don’t know if I should spring for a camera (I just got a new one back in April, but I want an SLR REALLY badly), or get a new laptop NOW, when I might just need to get a specific one next September when I go off to school. So should I get a camera or a laptop? I’m leaning more towards camera, but which brand should I get? I’m going to either go with a Canon Rebel, or a Nikon whatever version is cheapest, most likely
My sister has a Nikon, so if I get one, I could also use some of her lenses. Which camera would you suggest?
Second question. I’m *probably* getting a new domain soon. It’s going to be for a portfolio/design site, where people can order layout & I’ll have premades and such. Generally, I get .net domains but some people feel like .com domains are better for things like that. Should I get a .com or a .net, or does it really matter? Is it up to me & my choice, or should I base it on the type of site?
Thanks guys

What I Like About You (You Really Know How To Dance)

Day 24 – 10 things I really like about myself.
Uhm, I only have like 20 minutes to write this post. Might take longer than that to come up with a list of even.. five things. But I’ll try anyways.
1. I like my eyes.
2. I like that I’ve stuck with my design of the day so far, for a whole 56 days.
3. I like that I’m actually starting to save money, and not let myself spend certain money.
4. I like that I’m getting closer to getting my liscence.
5. I like that I have a basic idea of what I want to do next year/with my life, which I didn’t have a set plan a few months ago.
6. I like that I have a job I don’t mind, and a co-op that I like (I hated my old job).
7. I like my boobs (they’ve grown a lot lately. hurrah!).
8. I like how long my hair is.
9. I like that I’m trying to learn more things about coding, especially wordpress coding.
10. I like that I’ve actually been able to come up with this many facts.
Woo, that only took me like.. 7ish minutes?
I worked today, and it was an alright day. I saw my new boss, though I’m not sure if I’ll like him or not. I guess I didn’t post about this, but the owner of the grocery store that I work at (who has owned it for over 16 years), Phil, sold the store. Maria has worked with him for 16 years, and she’s NOT happy about it, because she thinks the new guy is making her train his niece to take over her job. Honestly, the store will FALL APART without Maria. Almost all of the customers know her by name because they have been coming there for SO long. She’s there almost ALL the time, all day, basically everyday. Everybody knows & loves her, and if she was gone.. the place would fall apart. She’s the one we go to when we don’t know a code, or need a price check on anything. She just knows everything. And she bakes awesome cookies.
She was talking last night about looking for a new job, and it would just be so sad if she left. It wouldn’t be the same without her.
I went to the fair tonight, with David. My town apparently has the top demolition derby in Canada? Tonight, they did a ‘durby cross’ which is a demolition derby + motocross race. So basically, there was two ramps (that was just a little short of fitting two car across) and the first to do 15 laps wom. It was pretty interesting, because it got intense. And then after (with the same cars) there was the demolition derby, and then one after with trucks as well. It was pretty cool
It was so cold out though :( I’m so not looking forward to winter, at all.
I’m gonna sleep now, because it’s almost midnight and I have to be up at 9 to be at driving school. Except, I may have to walk there so I’d have to be up even earlier -_- Ew.

What My Cat Thinks

Day 23 – What does your cat think?
My cat (cookie, I love her
) thinks that she owns the house (maybe, because she basically does). Last night as I was watching Grey’s Anatomy (so glad it’s back!), she decided that she wanted to sit on my arm, which was on the arm rest of the chair I was in. My arm was half hanging off the chair, and as a result.. my arm started to fall asleep. There’s no way I could have moved her though, she’s just way too cute
You probably noticed the private post below, but just ignore it. My dad was pissing me off so I was ranting. The question for the day was ‘right a letter to someone who recently hurt you’, so it was to him, because he was being an asshole. I kept it protected because it was just filled with anger, and my mom has found something I posted about my parents before that was a rant, and I got in a lot of trouble for it so I just don’t want any chances of that happening again. I’m okay now though, I was just in a really bad mood last night.
I don’t really have much time to blog, because I have to go to work soon. Then I work again tomorrow, and then after work I’m going to the fall fair with David & probably Brandon, because David and I made plans to go but he’s forgetful & forgot, so made plans with Brandon too. Except he thought the plans with Brandon were for Friday night, but he has plans with his girlfriend as she’s been gone all week, so now things got switched around & they both got pissy at eachother and it was not fun to be the middle woman in that conversation.
Co-op was pretty good today. Because of the choice awards being over, there’s tons of ‘Thanks for voting for us!’ ads to do, and they all have to be done by next Thursday. So I did a few today, and they’ll be in the paper next week
By the way, a few of you have asked what co-op is and I keep forgetting to post that! It’s a two credit course in school, where you go to get experience for whatever career you want to do. You can get placed pretty much anywhere from a hospital to a car garage, to the local newspaper. It’s to gain experience, and to see if you would actually like the field you want to go into. It’s kind of liking having a job, but instead of getting paid, you get school credit for it. Though some people (like David) can get jobs AFTER they finish the semester.
I should probably go and get ready for school now.. wait, what? I mean work. I’m clearly too tired.
