Challenge One, Day Eight.

Day Eight- Three things you want to say to different people

Some of these are much more obvious than the others. I'd prefer to keep them that way.
Some of these work for more than one person.

Person One
1. I love you more than anyone else I've loved before, but I'm afraid to express it to you because you can't express your feelings to me.
2. I know more than you probably think I know. I just wish you were comfortable enough to tell me everything outright. I want to know everything about you. Although the mystery keeps me intrigued. You really know how to keep me interested.
3. I'm sorry I'm needy half the time and agressive the other half. It's just the way I tick. It's how depression works for me, I guess.

Person Two
1. I'm actually stunned how different you are. I guess your new friends don't know the real you. The way I do. And when they do, what's going to happen? You can't keep leaving your problems behind. You need to face who you really are eventually.
2. We've had some really great times, some really bad times too. I miss the great times, but I don't miss you. You messed me up. I'm better now. I'm happy. I've never been happier actually. I guess I really should be saying thank you for putting me at my lowest so I can now learn to be at my highest.
3. If we ever bump into each other again, how will we react? Will we be kind? Will you ignore me? I'd be willing to start our friendship over again, but the past makes me re-think that.

Person Three
1.  Stop thinking you're intelligent, important, and well liked. Truth is, most people don't give a shit about you, your problems, accomplishments, or what you have to say. Treat others with more respect and you'll go further, trust me.
2. You need to stop putting less pressure on yourself. Realize you're human and you make mistakes. Realize nobody is perfect. After you realize this, go about working on yourself. Acceptance is the first step.
3. You need a reality check. Your fashion choices and role models are disgusting. Focus on your education more. Maybe take classes in something you love. Become more cultured. Just please stop looking like an idiot, it's embarrassing everyone else I know.

Person Four
1. Honestly, you're so lazy, and you need to shape up your whole life. I have such higher expectations of you. Is this how you want to live your life?
2. Stop caring so much how others see you and start caring how YOU see you. You'll notice they'll like you more.
3. I appreciate that you want to make others happy, and by doing so, that makes you happy. But you can't always do that. It puts you behind on important things. Learn to share your times with others while still making time for yourself.

Challenge One, Day Six.

 Day 6- What Band or musician is most important to you?

Even though they are broken up, My Chemical Romance is my favorite band.

I discovered them in 2004, when they were headlining for Green Day. I went out a month before the concert and bought Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge so I would know some of their songs. I'm Not Okay had just gotten popular, so I knew that song. (Nothing like buying an album for one song...) Anyways, I bought it, listened to all of it, and loved it. Fell in love with them live. More so than Green Day, who I actually went to see. I bought all their albums and they've been my favorite ever since.

I won't say they saved my life or anything, that's pretty drastic. I've just always liked them more than anything else, and the songs paint a story in my head.

And Gerard Way is my favorite celebrity. Just sayin. ;)

Challenge One, Day Five.

Day Six- Five places you want to visit

1. Europe, for the Architecture and history, and cultures.

2. Egypt, for the history and mythology.

3. Baja California, where the desert meets the ocean. I would love to take my honeymoon here.

4. Australia, for the beauty, the reefs, the views.

5. Every state in the United States of America, many major tourist attractions. I'd like to have a blog and show my photography.

Challenge One, Day Four.

Day Four- the meaning behind your (user)name.
Well, one of my favorite bands is the misfits. My absolute favorite band is My Chemical Romance, and they covered a Misfits song, Astrozombies. I used to just have that as a username in high-school, but someone has since been using it. So, I altered the name a bit and I thought it worked out pretty cool.

Challenge One, Day Three.

Day 3- Your day, in great detail.

I woke up a couple times this morning, mostly because Cory was tossing and turning. I spent the night at his house. I was also nervous I'd miss my alarm or piss him off when it went off. My first alarm went off at 8:20 AM, I shut it off and turned off the other. I laid with him until 8:30, then left to come home to change for work.

I got to work on time at 9 AM, and did all the normal tasks. I can't think of great detail, except it was busy because the Powerball jackpot is high. I stayed almost an hour later because the floral employee called off, so I had to take all of their out of date product out and put their bouquets up.

I bought some mac and cheese and went to subway and got a sandwich. I came home and have been on the computer since. I didn't finish either of the foods, but that's okay. I don't know what I'm going to do with my evening, but I'm happy to be home.
