8 Rules I Live By

8 rules I live by:
- Never regret something you do.
I think that when you do something, you do it for a reason. You have t always own up to what you do, no matter how bad or hurtful it is. You can’t always take back the things you say or do. I may not always think about the stuff I do or say but I always know that I did what I did and said what I said with a purpose. I tend not to say sorry because if I did, then I’d be lying. I mean, I could do things out of line at points, and say mean and hurtful things, but honestly I do mean 99.9% of the things I say.
- Don’t rely on others so much.
I tend to think, why ask someone to do something when you can do it on your own. As a person, you’re not always gunna have someone to help you out every time you’re in trouble. So you need to learn how to take care of things, on your own. This doesn’t mean give up on others, but just try not to count on having them there 24/7.

- No matter what, try not to give up
Things will always get hard. That’s just how life is. Giving up is the hardest thing not to do. Some people tend to think, well I can never complete this and there is no point to even trying; well that’s how I try not to see things. In some situations, you have to give up but I always try to try my darn best to work things out.
- Family always comes first
Family to me is the most important thing to me. It means more to me than anything I could want in the world. There people I would never trade for the world. I’m always there for them as they are always here for me. No matter where we’re at, we will always have each other. I respect every single one of my family members, and if anyone of them needed help, I would be there for them in a heartbeat. There is no one else or group of people that mean more to me then them.
- Don’t let anyone, know your true feelings
When I say this, I think about getting hurt. I think if you let someone in and they get to know you well enough and let them know your true heartfelt feelings, then you’re bound to get hurt. That’s the only way I can ever see getting hurt in the most hurtful way. I don’t trust many people because I don’t think that everyone is 100% real. I’ve met some really hurtful people and at the time I didn’t know that but I let them know how I truly felt. The next thing I know, feelings were hurt, friends were lost, and tears were shed. So I never under any circumstances let anyone know what I really am feeling.
- Don’t think so much about the past, and think more about the future.
The past is the past, move on. Yes, thinking about great memories is fine but all the bad stuff and hurtful things just get over it. If you think too much about the past then I don’t think you can truly live a good, fun life. You can make your future how you want it to be. Don’t make a repeat of the mistakes you made, and a great way not to do that is to just think about how great you want things to go for you. I just say, let go and move on!

- Don’t cry over the stupid stuff so try and laugh it off
Crying sucks. Try not to do it. When you can, just things about the better things in your life and don’t worry about the small stupid stuff. You will go into the future and think about that it wasn’t so much to worry about so don’t waste your time now.

- Live everyday like it’s your last
You only live one life. Might as well make the best of it. Do things you wouldn’t normally do. You can’t live life in regret. If you don’t do what you want now, you won’t be able to do it later. Just do what makes you happy, even it if it breaks the rules! ;)

A Weekend In My Life .

It’s just a regular Friday at Stevenson High School. The bell rings at 2:19. I rush to my locker to get my stuff and hurry out of the school. As I hop in the car, I start to text my friends; usually Derek, JB, or Benny. I see who’s doing what this weekend. It’s usually, Benny’s having people over and staying there till Sunday night, Derek and JB are always together; having a party every other weekend or just with a bunch of people over there house. As in this weekend I am going over JB’s house. I texted my friends early this week (Thursday) and I wanted to plan my weekend out ahead of time. Whenever I go over Derek’s house, we always have to bring people. So our group is always the same people. Derek, JB, Anthony, Ali, Olivia, Chris, Kenny, Ryan, and me. It’s always so much fun when I’m with them. So after school today I will go home and get all my stuff ready. Like a girl, I need to plan out my outfit and get all my makeup and stuff like that packed. I will stay home on Friday because I really don’t feel like doing anything today. But when Saturday comes, I’m gone!

On Saturday morning, I will get up. Possibly go to breakfast with my mom then go to the mall. Come home, and then get ready. I will go pick up Anthony, Chris, and Ryan then head over to Derek’s. When we get there we will usually talk for a while and just chill. The guys always try to do stupid stuff and be funny, but someone always ends up getting hurt. Haha. By the time of two or three in the morning, people start to settle down and relax, then soon fall asleep. When Sunday rolls around, everyone wakes up around like one o’clock. We all relax for the rest of the day till nine or ten o’clock. Then everyone will head home till the next weekend rolls around. It might not seem like fun but trust me, when you’re there you’ll have the greatest time of your life. And that’s a promise.<3

Valentine's Day ;*

I love many things and people, but my love for them is very different. I love my phone a lot. I don’t think I can even go an hour without my phone, but I don’t love that nearly as much as the people in my life. One of the people or should say peoples is my family. I love them so much. I could never do without their love and support. They’re there for me no matter what, and I’m the same way for them. I just love them no matter what.

But the one of the people in my family relates to me more than anyone I have ever met in my life; my mom. She is seriously like my mother, my best friend, and my other half. She’s the only one that can make me smile when I’m upset, comfort me through my worst, and she is like the only one that can really put up with me. She can never truly be mad at me, even if she tries her hardest. She tries to relate to me when I make mistakes. She knows that I try my best and she only wants the best for me. She is an amazing person, and I love her greatly. She is my one and only hero <3>

Another person that I’d say I love is my best friend, Olivia. She’s been my friend ever since the sixth grade. When I was in the eighth grade we became even closer. She’s seriously like the sister I’ve never had. I trust her with anything and everything. I tell her everything! We fight sometimes but in the end, it doesn’t really matter. She will always have my back and I will always have hers. I love her to death <3>

And another person that I can honestly say I love is my really close friend, Tyler. I’ve known him for a year and a half now, and I feel like I’ve known him forever. He’s is one of my best friends that I know I can go to him with anything. I talk to him about a bunch of stuff that I feel like I can’t tell anyone else. He’s been here for me at my worst and he has never left my side. I know he really does care about me. That’s why I love him so much. It seems like he is my better half. He knows so much about me, he is so much like me. I just think we’re just really great ‘friends’ <3 [My Valentine’s ;* ]

Grocery Shopping .

$98.38 [A Week] $245.95 [A Month]

My monthly cost for groceries is $245.95 and my weekly cost is $98.38. I don’t really think there is a way for me to cut back on so I wouldn’t change my list. I think that I wouldn’t need as much every time I go grocery shopping so sometimes my cost would be higher and lower. That could how I would be cutting back; by decreasing what I buy. I would have more than enough money to buy all my groceries for the month.

Home Sweeet Home.

If I worked at as a great, photographer after going to art school and all that nonsense; I could actually get $80,000.00 starting off. Soo I decided I’d move to Canton. I like the space around there. So I got a condo for $709.00 a month. It has two bed rooms, two bathrooms, a padio, pool and other things like that. My gas will be $221.00, electrictiy is $70.00 and water would be $100.00. So that would add up to be $391.00 a month. My phone bill sould be around $100.00 internet & cable together would be $90.00. My car payment a month would be $288.00. That would all add up to $1,187.00. My car insurance would be $82.00 a month. My health insurance would be $50.00. So a month I would pay (on everything) $3,055.00. And for extra money I would get $2,545.00. Well that still wouldn’t be money I could use on things I want. I would still need to buy grocery’s, gas in my car, and things such like that. So I think I should take out like another $200.00 for extra fee’s like that. Well i probably need more money then that but ohhh welll. So in the end I should have around $2,300.00 left to spend. Which isn’t that bad. I would be very happy with that. 

My Car.

Well for the car of my choice I chose 2009 Black Ford Escape. It’s $21.020 all together. I would only pay about $290.00 a month. I wanted this car because I know that it’s a good car. And I like the way it looks. Plus it’s pretty simple and it’s in my range of money. So that's my car.

Naughty & Nice.

One time when I was nice, I helped my mom go shopping for other people for Christmas. Like it was really hard cause I wasn’t shopping for myself and I didn’t wanna make my mom mad for asking for things so I didn’t nag. It was really hard for me but I did it. Another time I was nice was when I helped my friend’s mom shop for my friend. Like it was fun but hard at the same time. I helped her out a lot! So that was another good / nice thing I did. Oh and another nice thing I did was be patient when my brother has practice. It’s boring but I was patient though soo yeah I was nice then too. So those are like the only times i could think of that I've been nice.

One time I was naughty I lied to my mom when I said I was going to my friend’s house when I was really going to meet up with a bunch of people. She never found out but then it kind of slipped out of my mouth. It wasn’t a big deal though so it was alright. Another time I was naughty was when I made fun of this girl I didn’t know. I know it’s was really mean but it was like really hilarious at the time. I knew it would hurt her feelings but I guess I wasn’t really thinking at the time. And another time I was naughty was when I was talking back t Mr. Johnson. It was really rude but soo funny at the time. I don’t think he likes me very much now but oh well. I have many other naughty stories but I don’t really wanna talk about those times. Haha. Kay bye.

Happy Late Thanksgiving!

I’m very thankful for a bunch of stuff. Like…
1) My family, their always here for me no matter what and I really appreciate that.
2) My PHONE!!!! I would never ever be able to live without it. I always need to be in communication with people and I’m just soo grateful I can have one.
3) My Friends. There amazing. They stick by me no matter what and they just mean soo much to me and if I lost them then I think I’d like… die.
4) My Animals, I don’t know why I’m thankful for them but I just am. If I didn’t have my animals; things just wouldn’t be right.
5) My Education, im lucky that I have a chance to go to school and get smart and I think If I didn’t then that would be… bad. Im just lucky that I can get smart and have a advantage in life.
6) My Cappuccino. I have to have one almost every day before school. I think that’s the reason that I make it to school.
7) My Laptop, OMG! I love that thing. If I didn’t have it id think I’d die. It’s like everything to me.
8) My Clothes. Most people in America don’t have clothes and I’m just lucky I’m not poor and… yeah
9) My House, I’m lucky for my house cause I know sooo many people don’t have houses or places to stay and I’m just soo thankful for that.

My Two Jobs I Picked..

For my two jobs that I picked, I picked a photographer and a addiction counselor. I thought these would be a good pick for me.
Photography: To be a photographer you are usually expected to have a college degree. But that’s mostly if you want to have a job as a photojournalists, or in industrial or scientific photography. So if you wanted to go to college for this type of job then you could go to a in school college. There is a couple in the state of Michigan like Mott Community College, Lansing Community College, Oakland Community College, and Washtenaw Community College. Those are all two year college courses. (I think?) But there are about seven four year classes. The training would be pretty much just be working on how capturing the right picture that would satisfy you and possibly you’re clients needs. Typically the job pays somewhere between $17,000 and $62,000 a year. When you’re beginning as a photographer you could earn about $29,000. But if you are a full time photographer, with a lot of experience and a good reputation you could earn about $80,000. With earning big bucks you get these benefits; health insurance, paid sick days, and vacation time. This work would in could traveling but you would you probably have to work for about 55 hours a week.
Addiction Counselor: An addiction counselor is a counselor that meets with clients who have addiction problems to discuss their strengths, weaknesses, and needs. They have addictions let along the lines of alcohol, and drugs. The counselor helps the clients with their problems and helps them on the way to recovery. They work standard office hours. So about 35 – 40 hours each week. Part – time is also another option. Their annual earning is about $22,000 to $52,000, most between $28,000 and $45,000 a year. But some senior counselor can earn about $70,000 a year. Counselors are employed on a full – time basis.

My Top Eleven Jobs.

1. Artist
2. Casting Director
3. Tow Truck Driver
4. Costume Designer
5. Photographer
6. Website Designer
7. Cartoonist / Comic Illustrator
8. Courier / Messenger
9. Fashion Designer
10. Pest Controller
11. Additions Counselor
(Umm, I think some of these are very wrong!)

Well for some of my options, I think they were very wrong! For example; pest controller. Yeah... There’s no way I would ever do that. Seeming bugs scare me so much. But two jobs that I would really be interested in would be photographer and Addiction Counselor. I like to see how things are stopped and how you can really look in depth of what you’re taking a picture of. I and I’ve actually been interested in photography for a while now. So I think that the Career Cruising test was really right about that one.
For the addiction counselor, I would be really interested in that too. I would love to help people with their problems and help them to a better way of living. I think that would be an amazing job! I think that this job would help other people as a person, and help me become a better person with helping other people in life.
I would really like those as my jobs. (;

Happy Halloween!

Soo... Tomorrow’s Halloween! (Or it was Halloween) It doesn’t really seem like it, but I guess it’s already that time of the month. My plans for Halloween are to go hang out with my friends then go to a bonfire or party for the rest of the night. So it’s nothing really exciting but it’s better than sitting at home; doing nothing or going to my friend’s party. But I think I’d rather be out with my brother trick-or-treating with him for some reason. I don’t know why though. So now I really don’t know what to do. Ohhh Well. (I chose to go to my friend’s party. It was very fun! I’m glad that I chose to go to the party because it was too cold to go to Trick – Or – Treating.)

My Favorite Halloween Costume would probably have to be a skeleton cause it’s so original. I don’t like the complicated costume’s cause I like to keep it plain and simple. Something like a pirate or a bumble bee or something cute. The complicated ones look too hard to put on so I just don’t like them. Plus you only wear the costume once so why make it so busy. Unless you’re going to a Halloween party then yes; go all out. But otherwise keep it nice, plain and simple!

My favorite thing to do around Halloween time is to watch scary movies. My favorite scary movie would probably have to be, either Texas Chainsaw Massacre, or The Skeleton Key. Those are really good movies. I love to watch them with my friends or just with my cousins or something. We always tend to watch them like around eleven o’clock or some time then. So when were all done watching movies it’s about three in the morning. So we all ways freak ourselves out. Some other good scary movies I like are The Blair Witch Project, The Others, The Ring 1 & The Ring 2, Amityville Horror, Last House on the Left, I Know What You Did Last Summer and I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. Those are all some pretty freaky movies; but there really good to watch. But lately I went to the movies and I saw the Step Father and I saw Paranormal Activity. Those are also some pretty good movies to see.

This is the things that I like about Halloween & enjoying the Halloween season. (:

A Perfecrt Day

So I’m told I only have 24 hours to live. Well I’d try to have the best day that I could possibly have. My time meter to live would start when I woke up; which would probably be around 9:00. I’d get ready for the day. But it’s in the middle of October so I would have a limited amount of things to do. But for the morning, I would go out to breakfast with my family for the one last time. I would like to have some freshly cut fruit and have strawberry crepes. Oh and I would like to have freshly squeezed orange juice. After my family and I are done having breakfast then we would sit there and talk about or lives and about everything that’s going on. By that time I would have wasted three hours or my time remaining.
I would then go back to my house where I would take a hour nap. It would be nice and quiet. When I awoke I would like to go to a mall. Either Twelve Oaks or Great Lakes Crossing. I would like to shop for a new outfit for when they stick me in that wooden box. I would like to go to the mall with my closest friends and I would spend around four hours there. So around this time it should be around three o’clock. I would like to take my friends out to lunch at their favorite place. I don’t really know what I’d get. So after that I would go to my house where all my family is, (no friends though) and sit and relax and talk about things. We’d have a lot laughs and we would enjoy each other’s company.
When we are all done talking we would go out to dinner. My family and I all love a certain restaurant so it wouldn’t be hard picking the place to eat. We would go to Bucco De Beppo. When you walk in through the doors you can smell the Italian food and everything that goes along with it. We would all sit in one big both because of our large but quite small family. And again we would talk some more, while chowing down on our food. By this time it’s about eight o’clock. And now we are loading up into our cars to go back to my house. We would sit outside by the bonfire in the backyard watching the sun set. This would probably be the last time that I would have a real smile on my face and or actually be happy. I would gaze upon my family for the last time. As it hits eleven o’clock I will start going to bed. I wouldn’t want to die when I’m awake, like who wants that? Well as I’m dozing I will say my last I love you to my family, especially my brother. I’d miss him the most. As I’m sleeping, I will realize I will never awake again and that’s…. when I die.

My Riddles.

Riddle: I am taken from a mine, and shut up in a wooden case, from which I am never released, and yet I am used by almost.


Riddle: What is round on the ends and high in the middle?


Riddle: I come in darkness, but fill the mind with light. I bring enlightenment to some, while gripping others in the hand of fear. With me it can be a journey of inexplicable joy and sorrow.

Journey with me and you will never know when it will end. What am I?


Riddle: What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?


Riddle: Throw it off the highest building, and I'll not break. But put me in the ocean, and I will. What am I?

Riddle: I went into the woods and got it. I sat down to seek it. I brought it home with me because I couldn't find it. What is it?


Riddle: A man was driving a black truck. His lights were not on. The moon was not out. A lady was crossing the street. How did the man see her?

Riddle: What happens when you throw a green rock in the Red Sea?


Riddle: What dance did the French Poodle teach the Chihuahua?

In ten years....

When I see myself in three years, I see myself living in Michigan. Somewhere around here. I want to stay close to home and where I’m growing up. I like the environment around here and it has very nice people. I like growing up here so far so I think when I have a family then they will enjoy living around this area too. It has nice schools and places to go so I think this would a nice choice to live. I also see myself with a small family and living in my own, nice home.

I would want at least have two kids. One boy and one girl; hopefully. I always imaged I would have that family.

I will have The 2010 Expedition EL as a SUV. It would be a nice car for me and my family to travel around in. I would like to be working as a veterinarian. I will like to be home with my family and friends as much as I can. I want to spend some of my time with my family, traveling around. And doing as much as I can with them.

That’s how I see myself in ten years!
