Day 24: Something you wish you could change

I'd like to change a lot of things. People are high up on my list. It makes me angry when people, including myself, are so hypocritical and mean. I understand it is hard to change, I have had a hard time being nice, but some people don't even make an effort and that infuriates me.

On a totally unrelated topic I wish I could change prices. We are trying to make it to Disney world in January 2012 but things are so expensive and as a 7 people family it will be hard to reduce spending enough to make it. Cross your fingers!

Day 23: Your Favorite Book

No. Nuh uh. Not going to happen. Bad challenge. Shameful to even consider choosing a favorite book. Too many choices. If you really want to know what I read you can friend me on Good Reads but be warned, I mark everything a five so that won't help you much, and I need to update it.

Day 22: Something you wish you were better at

I wish I were a better sport, I wish I were better at cleaning and household chores, and I wish I were better at being motivated. I am lazy a lot, but after the day is over I berate myself for not doing one of the million things I could have done. Instead I wasted a day of my life being bored, how lame is that? Maybe I need a dinosaur.

Day 21: Your favorite night

I like girls nights. Sorry boys! I like to do them with family and with friends. I don't really care what we do, it is just fun to be with each other! I like to watch movies and talk on those nights. Then again I do love stay up until 4 in the morning reading nights too so...

Day 20: Traveling

Places I want to go include: London, England; Paris, France; Venice (I say it ven-E-ce similar to Greece instead of ven-is), Italy; Washington, D.C.; Chicago, Illinois; and several other places.

The Eiffel Tower

The Louvre

Big Ben

Venice


Who wants to come?

Day 19: Little You

Sorry for the pictures quality and the on the side ones too! But aren't I adorable? ;)

Day 18: Your biggest insecurity

I don't know what my biggest insecurity is but I have many fears. I guess a big insecurity is that I don't like being insulted or praised. No it is true! I don't really know how to return a compliment well so it makes me feel awkward when someone tells me I'm great or smart or something. Then I hate being insulted. This is because I have a very unbalanced self confidence scale that is easily tipped to low. I like living my life as me because I'm me, not because I have a compliment or insult given to me.

There is this book called You are Special by Max Lucado. Here is a summary off Good Reads:

The Wemmicks are wooden people. They give each other stars and dot. Stars are for being talented and pretty, and dots are for being ugly or non-talented. Punchinello is a Wemmick who receives dots, but one day he meets a Wemmick who doesn’t have stars or dots and is told to go visit Eli. He does, and Eli tells Punchinello that he is special because Eli made him. He also tells him the only way to get rid of the spots is to not care about what other people think about him. When Punchinello leaves Eli’s, one of his dots falls off of his body.

It is a great book and so are all of Max Lucado's. I hope you understand how this applies to my insecurity if not ask someone else.
