Sorry I haven't been writing. It's not like I have a ton of readers anyway. I haven't had a bunch of time lately. I spend a lot of time at work now, but not working as much as I'd like. It's a slow build to get a steady clientele. I'm really hoping it'll pick up more and more.
Anyways though, here's question 29:
Do you believe the end of the world will come to pass during your lifetime?
Honestly, it is very possible. I don't think it'll happen soon, but it definitely could happen later in my life. The signs are there, and things are slowly getting worse. God promised He would return, so I guess I just have to be ready when that time comes, if it does come in my life time.

Day 28
Sorry it's been so long since I've written. My computer was out of service, but now I have a new one. :) Yays!!! Here's a quick blog for you to read. :)
Describe a time in your life when you were lost (figuratively or not)
I don't think I've ever been physically lost. I've always have the ability to call my father and get directions if I couldn't find my way around an area. I guess I can say I've been lost in other way though. Lost in what I should do in my life, lost in the sense that I was not a Christian, lost in math anything. I am still lost in math, but everything else has fallen in to place since I gave my life to the Lord five years ago. I'm not saying things have been perfect, because they haven't, but I've had a guide in my life, that never lets me go. :)

Day 27
Name something you’ve always wanted that you will never ever have.
Superman. He's a person however, not a thing, but I am completely serious. I love Superman. I even have the tattoo to prove it. I actually wrote a note on Facebook a couple years back about how much I loved Superman and why, and I printed it out and gave it to my parents to convince them that it was a good idea for me to get the tattoo. Here it is:
"Over the years I am sure many of you have wondered why Superman is so important to me. What is the big deal about Superman? Well.... I'll tell you. Ever since I was a little girl I have known about Superman. I used to watch the Adventures of Lois and Clark and that is when my love began. Superman embodies all that is good. He embodies near perfection. And that is what I want in a guy. A guy who is perfect to me. Superman is also a reminder to me not to settle for anything less than what Ive wanted all my life. That is why I am always like "I love Superman soooo much". When I do call someone superman It means that I am truly deeply in love, and that is a scary feeling. I have only called one guy Superman.... ever. And he was far from perfect, but I was so in love that I found him perfect. Over the years I slowly became more aware that he was more like Bizarro than Superman (excuse the comic book lingo). And so my search for my Superman continues. I may already know the guy, I may not have even met him yet, but I know God has my Superman prepared for me, and I certainly can not wait to know who it is. In the meantime though I plan on working on my relationship with God so that I can be ready to truly be Lois Lane.
Im a geek, I know, but this is something important in my life that I want people to understand. When I say I want a Superman tattoo I say that because I want a permanent reminder to NEVER settle for anything less than the man I can truly call my Superman."
Yeah. I'm pretty dorky. :)

Day 26
I have been so bad about writing lately, but it's hard with my computer the way it is. I really need to get it taken care of. Anyway, here we go:
Have you ever wanted to trade places with someone else for a day, week, or a lifetime? If so, who was it and why?
I've always thought it would be interesting to trade places with a celebrity, or someone else who we think would "have it easy" because of their wealth. It's be interesting to see how their life is, and if it really is as simple as we think it is. I wouldn't want that for life though, that life style doesn't appeal to me. I would be happier just being able to afford what I need then I would be with more money than I knew what to do with. It seems like the more money people get, the bigger their problems seem to become. It's like, with me, how did I afford thing when I had a job that I worked at just on the weekends making only minimum wage? And now, when I have a better job, it seems like I can't afford anything at all. Granted, now I'm paying off student loans, but before I was paying for school, so it seems that things should be better. Maybe that's just me though.

Day 25 (a day late)
If you could start your life over from birth, what is the one thing you would change about yourself?
Really, there's not much about myself I would change. All of my experiences have created my personality, and I wouldn't change who I am now. I have a great family, so I wouldn't change any of that. If I were to change anything, I would be a natural red head. I should have been a ginger. Red hair runs in my family. I have the skin tone for it, and my hair has tons of red highlights, but it's not completely red. It should be! Some people may wonder why anyone would WANT to be a ginger, but I really love red hair. And, it looks natural on me :) .

Day 24
I don't like the topic for day 24, so instead I'm going to give you an update on my life! I started an even newer job this week and had a great first day, but things have slowed to a stop ever since. I really need to build a clientele at the spa I'm now working at. I have a small core clientele, but they're outside of the spa, and that's an issue. So my new project is building clientele at work. Yay! Until that happens though, it kinda sucks because I'm not busy, and I'm not making money. Boo!
Speaking of money, I have to spend some soon because I have having some major computer issues. My charger input (jack, whatever you want to call it) on my laptop is broken, and it has become increasingly more difficult to get my laptop to charge, and that is really bad. My laptop basically holds my life: photography and music. So my two options are to either spend a couple hundred to get the issue fixed, or buy a new computer. It wasn't an expensive machine in the first place, and I have a few other issues with it, so I think I will go with the second option. So, I have been computer browsing the last few days. I got it pretty narrowed down, now it's just a matter of affording it.
Sometimes it really sucks to be an adult. With more age comes more responsibility. Bleh. I'm only 20, couldn't responsibility have waited a few more years? I need to marry someone rich....

Day 23
What Lo-Fi or non-electronic / old-school things from the past do you still enjoy?
I love to read. It happens to be one of my favorite pastimes. I will forever be loyal to paper versions of books. There is something about the smell and feel of a book in your hand, especially old books. I don't know if I would ever be happy reading off a Kindle or something of the sort, it's just not the same. Yes, those things are very convenient, but I love owning hard copies of books. Books are something I collect too. I hate letting people borrow books because I'm insanely careful about keeping books in excellent condition. I have two copies of almost every Harry Potter book for that very reason, I read them so much that I don't want my special copies to get too much wear and tear. I'm a little bit crazy, shh.
I have been reading since I was about five years old, and I mean real reading. I was already reading easy books before then. My reading level has always been higher than average. In elementary school I was reading five levels above everyone else (a perk of being home-schooled in my early years). I have conquered books in a single day that most people would take weeks to read (Pride and Prejudice, for example). I truly adore literature. I do, however, get burned out sometimes and will go months, or sometimes over a year, without picking up a novel. It is more likely to happen after just finishing another re-read of the HP series, because after those books, it's hard to find much else immediately appealing.
Can you tell I love me some HP???
