Day #18

Day Eighteen ~ A picture of your biggest insecurity

Public Speaking. I have never liked it nor do I think I will ever like it. There is something about getting up in front of people and talking that just scares me to death. I don't even like speaking in class when I'm sitting at my desk. Whenever I do have to get up and talk in front of people, I get so flustered that I start stuttering and just look nervous all over. I don't know why! I think my problem is that I think about it too much and I get myself so worked up, so when the time comes for it to happen, I'm just done for. I always dread going to a class and reading the syllabus and realizing that at some point throughout the semester I am going to have to get up and do some type of presentation. I really need to get over this because I am most likely going to have to do many more presentations throughout my college career but I just hate it! Good thing I'm not going to school to be a teacher!!


On a another note, I really wish Matt would get to feeling better. :( His poor allergies are kicking his butt and I just wish I could make them all go away!! Poor thing has an earache now. Hopefully he can get some medicine at the doctor tomorrow and get to feeling better soon. I need to get going. I have soooo much stuff to do for school that I don't need to put off any longer!!

Hope everyone has a great week...maybe the warm weather will come back to stay! =)

Day #16 & Day #17

I just wrote a whole bunch for these 2 posts and pressed a wrong button and everything got deleted so I'm doing a shortened version now because I'm tired!!!!!!


Day Sixteen ~ A picture of someone who inspires you

Basically, Oprah is just an all around good person! She really cares about people and wants to help people in need. This is an example of someone who came from nothing and made it too the top! She grew up in a poverty-stricken neighborhood, was abused and neglected, and now is one of the richest or might be the richest women in the world. If she isn't an inspiration to someone then I don't know who is!




Day seventeen ~ A picture of something that has made a huge impact in your life recently.

In the past couple of months, I have really realized what I want to do with my life and that's working with hospice patients. Through volunteering in assisted living facilities and getting to work with older people, I've found that they are some of the sweetest and most caring people to work with and I can't wait to finally get out of school and start working with them on a daily basis. Older people have a lot of wisdom and have been through so much in their lives and they are just fun to listen and talk too. I fully believe that I have found a area of work that suits my personality and what I like to do. =)

Day #15

Day Fifteen ~ A picture of something you want to do before you die

Not in this particular direction, but before I die I would LOVE to take a road trip from the east coast to the west coast. I think it would be awesome to stop in all the different places and see things that I have never seen before. I would love to stop and see the Grand Canyon and ride a camel...or is it a donkey? down to the bottom! I would also like to go to Yosemite National Park and make pit stops in Alabama, just because Sweet Home Alabama makes it look so pretty! I think it would be so cool to just stop in all of the small towns  I came across and just visit new places. I realize that in order for me to make this happen I would have to SAVE SAVE SAVE and I would have to find some willing participants to travel along on this journey. Who knows, maybe one day I will make this dream come true!! =)

Happy Thursday Everyone!   

Day # 14

Day fourteen ~ A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without

Man do I love this boy. From the first time Matt and me really ever talked I knew something was different. He is one of the most caring people I have ever met and I know without a doubt that he loves me unconditionally. He is also one of the most hardworking people I have ever met and I am so proud of him for doing what he wants to in life and being so good at it. He treats me the way a girl is supposed to be treated and I know that he would do anything in the world for me. I love how I am so comfortable around Matt and we can talk about anything and everything. I am so looking forward to making many more memories with my Matt and I cannot wait to see where life takes us. Love you Matthew!!!

Day # 13

Day Thirteen ~ A picture of your favorite band or artist

HELLO!!! Does this picture even need an explanation. Not only is Jason Aldean smokin', I LOVE LOVE LOVE all of his music. I will be at his concert in September and I will probably be acting like a little kid in a candy shop. So if anyone feels the need to get me back stage passes as well to meet this hunk I will certainly be glad to have them! =)

Day # 12

Day Twelve ~ A picture of something you love

                        

I don't know what it is, but fresh flowers always brighten my day! I love the springtime when everything starts to bloom. The world just seems so much fresher & nicer when there are flowers popping up everywhere and all of the different colors fill up the scenery. And it is always a plus when someone gives you fresh flowers just for the heck of it and just because he loves you (coughmattcough)! So here's to the start of springtime and the start of brightening up this cold, dreary world we have had to endure for the past couple of months!!

P.S....
