It is really good! You should totally watch it, but it is also super weird and kinda confusing so just be warned about that. As for The Village... I've heard of it I think but I've never seen it.. should I? Is it any good? Tbh I am looking for a new show to binge on.. Pfft, that is so totally what my parents think xD No, I'm kidding. I think they're proud of me. I mean, I'm basically a straight A student, the lowest I got on a test this year was an 80, I don't screw around with drugs or alcohol and I'm not pregnant, so that is also a bonus :p Well, considering the school I go to it really [i]is[/i] a bonus, hah. But yeah, the only thing that they ever freak about is the fact that my bedroom is a toxic waste dump and even I agree that it's getting a little excessive. But otherwise, I'm a good kid! XD As for the whole 'grandkids' thing. Yup, definitely too young for that one... I only like babies when I can give them back. Ew husbands are gross, who needs em? Aha I like the hammock idea... XD But actually I think I will try and find some classes, there has to be one in Halifax somewhere. Aww, a prayer doesn't sound odd at all! I know this girl and every time before she goes on stage she crosses herself and she kind of wins everything, so there ya go! ;) Before we go backstage to compete in like the competitions final showcase, if we get in, we always do the same little huddle thing and are like "One, two, three *name of the routine*" People usually look at us funny but that's okay xD I think it's good to have little pre-performance/game rituals. Stretching and meditating... or meditative stretching I suppose, sounds like a good one. Getting into the right mindset and all. Have you ever done yoga before? I was suppose to read the book for the routine (there is actually a lot of work that does into character building for a routine), but I didn't. I mean, I really wanted to but I just never got the chance. You're making this authors work sound really good, though, so maybe I'll eventually read something by him. Whenever I finish reading this Stephen King series which might be never... >.< I actually really like your blog! I know some of the music, like Team (because who doesn't know that song?), and I've heard some music of The Shins before and I [i]adore[/i] The xx! Their song Angels is so beautiful. And Intro, we use that one for contemp improve and stuff, and I think there might have been a duet to it a couple years ago. But anyways, yes! Your blog is really great :) You get my stamp of approval! Go follow these blogs: fuckour-lives (you may not reblog her shit but some of it is hilarious and... she's my best friend :p), jonathon, virginity, heartbreakur, and breakinq. Those are a few that I really like. Oh.. I kinda dug myself into a hole there, didn't I? Damn.. okay fine. XD As for the personal posts, yeah I was like that at first too. Especially with things about depression and self harm and all that, but you get over that. I like it 'cause it's kind of an indirect way to get all your feelings out there. Ahahahaha, If you don't get addicted I will be seriously unimpressed and probably cry. Just saying. But oh my goodness!! The email I got from tumblr when you followed me was like "I---christine is following you! Swoon <3" I laughed so hard XD If I were to go drinking, it would be with my best friend. We had a plan to go over to her boyfriends and play disney drinking games all night while his parents were away but if my parents ever found out that I had spent the night at a guys house, especially one with no parents and alcohol on the premises, I would be literally dead, like in the ground in my backyard. So that didn't happen. I was sad, we were gonna play board games and everything too. DX Woah, that seriously sucks that he lost his job. Laws like that are so picky, but I mean I kind of get it. Ahaha, I am finding this quite amusing, honestly. That sounds like something that I would do 100%. A little ego boost once in a while never hurts! Fuck being a teenager. Oops, did I say that out loud? XD Honestly, and if you say don't wish away your life I will punch a wall, I just wish that high school was over with already. Kids [i]are[/i] really mean. Like, I've always been the underdog friend that people poked fun of and I didn't mind that, I could take it and laugh about it but then it just got super out of hand, I've been in situations where I couldn't even look at someone because I was scared they would call me out on something. I hate eating in front of people and am constantly obsessing over how I look, it's a shame because 9/10 I think that I look super ugly and gross because that's how people made me feel. It's better now, and I have some really great people in my life who make me feel beautiful, wonderful and happy. But like you said, it still stings a lot to think about some of the things that people have done to me. I honestly hope that I've never made anyone feel the way that I've felt in the past. That is actually a good thing because without my nerd-ness I have nothing. Yeah she just sent that, and it was in all capitals right after I texted her (okay no judgements the conversation was weird) "What kind of something *obnoxious winking*". And earlier yesterday, when she was freaking out because Josh was being super pissy at her, we were talking and I said "Just date a girl, they are so much less complicated" and she was like "If I could find someone to date me I would" and I said "Uh.. Me!" It was sarcastic, but y'know, and then she said "But would you actually?" And then that conversation happened so I was already a little bit like 'woah what?' It does feel cruel some of the time, but I am perfectly fine with it. I do the same thing in a way. Besides if we actually dated or something it wouldn't at all be fair to her because I wouldn't want certain people that are predominant in both of our lives to know and she would be a lot more open about it. So there is that. I just don't think I'm there yet, but it's still so fucking confusing half the time I am with her. But there is a part of me that wonders if maybe she feels the same, there have been times that I've thought that she definitely does. Anyways, fuck, I just don't know. Oh, and he broke up with her! Apparently they don't communicate very well or something. It was a super dumb reason and you probably don't wanna hear some of the names I wish I could call him XD
