Day Sixteen
Day 16 – Your first kiss
My first kiss. I think what I consider to be my first real kiss, you know, the type that’s more than just a quick brush of lips. I mean those are important, but the first time I really liked someone and we kissed was the moment I think I consider to be my first kiss.
And I mentioned that before. It was a moment I had wanted for the longest time by the time I got...
“In a moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst...”
– Theodore Roosevelt.
Let me explain to you what I consider my options:
Well they aren’t options.
In no order, there is one who is only recently single. Or was. Him and his girlfriend may have gotten back together. Who knows? Even if he totally was single, he’ll need time, and he leaves in mere weeks.
Then there’s one of my ex boyfriend’s friend. People who know us give me a hard time. He...
Day Fifteen
Day 15 – Your dreams
I’m not sure what kind of dreams this is talking about. I guess it is open for interpretation? So here’s mine:
So, I learned about dreams this year. You dream when in stages of REM. You go through these stages of sleep, the deep part, where you dream vividly, is REM. I love REM. I love dreaming. It’s funny how vivid dreams can actually be. I can’t...
Day Fourteen
Day 14 – What you wore today
Alright, so this is now technically from two days ago. But it is what I wore the day I was supposed to this.
Went from pajamas, a shirt and boxers, to jeans, a white long sleeve shirt, and a black scarf. From that I got into black spandex and a black loose v neck and went to the gym. Then I got back into pajamas.
Today doesn’t necessarily look any better. I am ridiculously tired, and missing my first class of the day, again. I think I have 7 absences from the class so far this year. In another week I will have two more absences, because I am volunteering at a camp, and will miss a Monday and Tuesday. Making my total absences 9. I think at 11 the teacher can drop you from the class if you are doing...
“Thunder and lightening are crashing down. They got me on the run, direct me to...”
– Brandon Flowers, Only the Young.
Only the Young. →
I’ve had the song since it came out. And it was good, I liked it. But, probably not my favorite on the album.
And then I came across this. The video. And everything changed.
I don’t know what it is, but something about it has me; I don’t know if it’s the colors, or the falling people, or Brandon Flowers walking on water, or the way his movements are so super human. I...
Day Thirteen
Day 13 – This week
So it’s only Wednesday, but it feels like it should be Friday or something. Closer to the weekend then just Wednesday. At any rate:
Monday; I don’t think anything really exciting happened. I went to school, I came home. I actually got finger printed for a camp I want to volunteer at. After making a futile attempt to do my homework, I went to the gym, and...
“Oh, Romeo? Yeah, you know, I used to have a scene with him.”
– The Dire Saints, Romeo and Juliet. (But, my favorite, the cover by The Killers).
Day Twelve
Day 12 – What’s in your bag
So I really have two bags. I have a purse that I carry around when I run errands and whatever; and then a bag I take to school. I’ll cover both.
So the purse I have now is black, it’s perfect sized and it’s only like a week old, I love it. It’s pretty cute and fairly versatile as far as purses go. (I was in REALLY bad need of a new...
Day Eleven
Day 11- Your siblings
Alright, I feel bad, but I just did a hard work out so I’m making this fast so I can go to sleep. Maybe I will add a picture in later :)
At any rate, I have a single sister. Rachael. Rachael and I were born on the same day but two years apart: August 15th. We are pretty close. I think we were closer when she lived at home. She is now a sophomore in college, but I...
“In letting you go, I’m loving myself.”
– Jojo, Too Little Too Late
Day Ten
Day 10 – What you wore today
So the day is just beginning really. But today will be a lot like yesterday, that really still feels like today because I haven’t gone to sleep yet.
But I’m wearing flip flops, cut off jeans, a shirt, and my fake leather jacket, and a scarf right now. If I go anywhere tomorrow my outfit will probably be similar… The sad part is, this is not me...
Day Nine
Day 09 – Your beliefs
My beliefs? So broad. From religion, to, well anything else in the world.
I think if there is something I strongly believe in it is to grow. To help yourself grow. I’m not sure everything happens for a reason; regardless, I think it is so important to learn from what happens. It makes you grow so much stronger as a person. I try to remember the past for what it is...
“Some things, slide by so carelessly.”
– The Killers, Smile Like You Mean It.
Day Eight
Day 08 – A moment
How a I supposed to pick a single moment to write about? In all the moments, the seconds that have passed unwillingly, which am I supposed to choose and tell of?
I think I know the moment I want to write about. The one I could replay a thousand times to try to understand it better. The moment I know so much better than to write.
I can’t pick a single moment of them...
“Pero es demasiado tarde para el amor de el ahora esta atrapado en una trampa. El...”
– The Killers
Day Seven
Day 07 – Your best friend
I don’t know if I could say I really have a best friend. I mean, as in just one. Because I think I have two.
I’d say my best friends are Riley and Alia.
When you look at them, and get to know them, they are pretty different, but I trust them both with anything.
I met Alia in elementary school, but I think it was 5th or 6th grade before we were good...
“And you’re not mine to lose, but I still feel like I’m losing you.”
– Unknown.
Day Six
Day 06 – Your day
So today was pretty boring…
I was late, as usual, to my zero hour class.
In my math class my teacher passed out papers and looked at me and told me it was nice of me to show up to class…. Uh, WTF. We have a test over two units tomorrow, so it was not ideal for me to miss school yesterday, but my eye was red, swollen, and light sensitive so I went in to Urgent...
Day Five
Day 05 – Your definition of love
I think I started talking about this in day two’s topic? Something previous. I’m 18, what do I know about love? You hear so much, but I don’t know what I’m supposed to make of it all.
Sarah Jessica Parker, as Carrie Bradshaw (of course) says it best: “I write about sex, not love. What do I know about love?”
Day Four
Day 04 – What you ate today
I didn’t really have an exciting day of food. For breakfast I had an oatmeal to go bar. As a snack? Another oatmeal to go bar…. For lunch I scarfed down some chicken fettuccine. And, last, for dinner my mom is currently making spaghetti with marinara sauce and a salad. Now that I think about it I have had little protein today. It’s basically been a...

– Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex in the City
The first last kiss. →
8 of 10 women believe the first kiss will tell them everything they need to know about the relationship.
I’m not sure if any of that is true: the 8/10 women believe or what the first kiss tells women.
But it’s weird to think about what the first kiss might say, to men or women. Think about it.
For me, I’ve had first kisses that literally have made me speechless, that when I...
“Sometimes when you look back on a situation, you realize it wasn’t all you...”
– Henry Bromel
Tranquilize →
I got this feeling they they’re gonna break down the door. I got this feeling they they’re gonna come back for more. See, I was thinking that I lost my mind, but it has been getting to me all this time. And it don’t stop dragging me down. Silently, reflection turns my world to stone
Day Two
Day 02 – Your first love
A first love is something really weird to think about. I’m not even sure I really know what love is.
The definition of love is something like: a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person, or a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend. In reality, I think everyone experiences it at least a little...
“How dreadful knowledge of the truth can be when there’s no help in the...”
– Sophocles
Day One: Introduce yourself
My full name is Constance Joy; I’m known as Connie. For now, this is a secret. Only I know about this. If I knew what you, or anyone, wanted to know, I’d tell you. But I don’t, so for now, I will leave it at that. Feel free to ask questions. :)
