Day 16: My views on mainstream music.
I like it. A lot of people are put off by the fact that so many other people are “sucked in” to the fad. While I agree that mainstream music gets old after a while, there’s a reason it’s mainstream: it’s good. Of course, everyone has their individual tastes, and mainstream music definitely isn’t the only kind of music I listen to. I like certain songs by Lady...
Day 15: My favorite Tumblrs
My friends’ tumblrs are my favorite :] I love reading what you guys are up to and your views/opinions about your day. Especially if I don’t see you all that often- I miss you!! <3
Day 14: My earliest memory.
When I was about 3, my dad took me camping on Palomar Mountain. I clearly remember seeing a white paw print on the table (I thought it had actually been left by an animal) and finding a ladybug on the outhouse toilet seat.
I wanna go camping now! Too bad the Palomar campgrounds got closed down from lack of funding :[
Day 13: Somewhere I'd like to move or visit.
I’ve always wanted to go to Quebec, in Canada. Not really sure why, just heard it’s a nice place.
I really want to study abroad in Costa Rica. It’s an ecological hot spot, basically a researcher’s paradise. I know I’ll learn a lot while I’m there, and it’s gorgeous. It’ll be an adventure.
Resuming the 30-day challenge. Day 12: Bullet your...
Woke up around 11, at home. Man was it nice to sleep in, and in my bed at home, too :]
Lazed about for a while, watching my dad play Dead Space and eating leftover Indian food from last night. Mmmm.
Started watching football and doing chemistry homework.
Nikki came over, yay! Hung out, messed around with Itunes, talked about life, ate 3 Musketeers Mint- the usual. :] It was really nice to see...
Hands.
Yours are nice to hold.

BAHAHAHAHAHA I must be deliriously tired because I spent a solid 5 minutes watching this and laughing hysterically. Goodnight, tumblr.
Must be some kind of sick, masochistic curiosity
to make me feel like calling you.

I can do this. I have to do this.
Even though my stomach hurts and my eyes sting and my throat tightens up…
I have no other choice.

Day 10: Describe my first love and first kiss.
First love…. if you count a crush it was my classmate and neighbor down the street. I was in 2nd grade, and kind of a tomboy, so we hung out a lot. We both loved dinosaurs, and he had a pet lizard.
If you’re only counting boyfriends, my first was in sophomore year. I loved him, even though he was an idiot.
First kiss? At the front gate to my house as he was dropping me off…...
Day 9: What I hope my future will be like.
See day 2.
I guess I could add that I want to be a published, globally-recognized ecologist with a PhD, working with the SD Zoo on the most important conservation projects :]
Haha hey, I can dream. In fact, I can aspire.
Day 8: A moment when I felt most satisfied with my...
Wow, I need to catch up! Anyways…
Well, there isn’t really one specific, huge moment of “OMG IM SO FREAKING HAPPY WITH MY LIFE”. I guess the thing that stands out most in my mind is the whole process of being accepted to UCSD and deciding to accept the….acceptance… yeah lol. DECIDING TO ATTEND! There we go.
Actually, all the acceptances I got were great...
Day 7: My zodiac sign and whether I think it fits...
Things I think definitely apply to me are bolded.
The emblem of Virgo, a virgin holding sheaves of wheat in her hands symbolizes wisdom, garnered in the fields of experience. Like the true virgin, most Virgos are shy and, like a virgin tend to wait to give herself to the perfect lover, Virgo is also idealistic. With a Mercury as the ruling planet, people born under this sign are quick thinking...
Day 6: 30 interesting facts
I have one younger brother. He’s 15, and a sophomore at MMHS.
I am an Environmental Systems: Ecology, Behavior and Evolution major. It’s probably one of the longest names in existence for a degree.
I LOVE tea. Especially English breakfast tea, with milk and sugar. I actually discovered my love for it in Ireland, on the Europe trip.
Cooking is one of my favorite activities....
Day 5: A time I thought about ending my own life.
I think everyone does, at some point. I’ve been depressed, I’ve had my down days, and I’ve thought about hurting myself, but that has never been enough for me to actually do it. It’s not worth it to me- it doesnt just hurt me, but also my loved ones… those who care about me. Killing myself has never been an option. The only reason I thought of it was one of those...
Day 4: My views on religion.
My view on religion is complicated. I wasn’t raised to believe in God or to subscribe to a specific religion, so I don’t. I guess you could say I’m an atheist, though I don’t like assigning myself to a category.
I don’t go to church, and I only go to temple with my grandma for my grandpa’s yartziet (death remembrance). I guess when it comes right down to it, I...
