a picture of something i wish i was better at...
running
i like to run. it's a new hobby really. i thought i actually hated running? i have no idea why i joined the team in the first place, because it wasn't a talent of mine either. but i felt the need to run for good excersize and i actually LIKE running now! i wish i was better at it though... that would make me LOVE it :)

awkward phase
well there's not a lot in life that i'd actually like to forget. i want to remember every one of life's lessons and fun memories! but if i could forget how i LOOKED at a phase in my life...it would be that two years where i wasn't a cute little kids anymore, but a silly tween who didn't know how to do her hair. gosh there are funny pictures though :)

30DC: Day 17

a picture of something that has made a big impact on my life recently...
BP
well not really BP. actually the COST of BP that has made me aware of how MONEY has a big impact on my life...actually EVERYONE'S life. having to pay for a portion of my gas for Jill (my car) has made me wary of the value of money, and how immensely blessed i am by it as well. Gas is one of the 'necessities' of life that people 'can't go without'. Gas is what makes the world go 'round in a way. our whole industry in the USA is two things: Gas & Food. anyways first a sad story about BP and then a happy one.
sad:
about 2 years ago we went into a McDonalds. My dad was getting something out of the car so the rest of us went in. It took my dad about 5 minutes to come into the McDonalds after us and after he came in we asked why he was so late coming in from the car. He sadly told us that a lady had come and asked for $5, because she had no money for gas. My dad was skeptical of this lady, but gave it to her anyways. He then watched her go get back into her car. She didn't drive away though, or fill up. She placed her hands on her head, as if dreading something. My dad looked harder in the car and saw children in the back. He realized she was dreading having to get out and ask yet another person and probably a few more for gas money. He went over to the car and gave her his credit car and told her to fill up her car. the lady was so grateful and only filled up half a tank because she wanted to show that she wasn't taking advantage of him.
i think this is a powerful story, because you can see the power of money. it can make one sad, hurt, embarressed, distressed, worried, thankful, or happy. it personally teaches me to count my blessings, because i have never yet had to beg for money from strangers, but there are millions of people that do it every day.
happy story:
well if you are frequent BP goer, you would know that there BP Thank You Days promotion has just ended. I got $30 worth of free gas from BP. Every 8 gallons of gas you fill up you go in and recieve a card, then enter the special code online, and once you aquire 5 cards you get a $10 BP Gift card. Yes, i did this for 3 months. so yeah, you can see i know only go exclusivley at BP. hahahahh
Anyways the point is, BP has made me aware of the many blessing of life that God has given me, including that of money. He makes me think of others and how this terrible yet wonderful gift of cash impacts so many people today.

30DC: Day 16

a picture of a person that inspires me...
Jenny
wow this girl right here is so encouraging, i feel as if she could probably encourage me to become president! Jenny always helps me do the things that i'm scared to try and to do my best. she definently brings out my creative side! she inspires me to think of others before myself, to cook, to sew, to encourage, to be friendly to those that are hard to deal with, and to be closer to God in everyday life. thanks for just being YOU, although you don't know what an impact you are in my life and to others lives' around you :) love you!

30DC: Day 15

picture of something you want to do before you die...


visit all 7 continents! i love to travel, and i want to see as much as i can! i figure if i make it to all 7 continents that i have seen more of the world than most people, but i'd love to aspire to visit every country, though that would mean i'd have to start saving every penny right about NOW! hahah so maybe just stick to visiting the 7 continents of the world :)

30DC: Day 14

a picture of a person i couldn't imagine my life without...

Dad & Mom
it's obvious you can't imagine life without your parents. even though they are frustrating sometimes, they try to do what's best for me in EVERYTHING, and are encouraging, caring, dependent, happy, and spoil me all the time. most of all they love me no matter what! yep, couldn't imagine life without these here folks. :)

30DC: Day 13

wow FOUR days late.....but the challenge will continue!
a picture of my favorite band or artist...
Mac Miller
so wow this kid just hopped out of highschool but has been producing since he was 15! he's rap and hiphop, and listening to him you would never know he was so young. he's not too popular right now, but he's inspiring to all other young singers showing that you can make it to the top even when you're young! remember this name; i think he's gonna hit big soon!
