I'm so LAZY!

   Gah! This is terrible! I haven't posted since September!  Wow...'Kay so obviously I put the PRO in Procrastinate... so here's my lame...

Happy Halloween     Which I went with my Youth Group and did a Food drive again (lots of fun, hanging with my two best friends)

Happy Thanksgiving     My brother and I dared our awesome Uncle to put his turkey on his pumpkin pie and eat it (hey, its not as bad as last year, last year was pickles on his apple pie :)

Hope you remembered Remembrance Day  My sibs and I entered this contest, it was pretty cool. We had to draw/paint a picture or a poem about remembrance. My sister went to the next level!

Merry Christmas  Hope yours was great!  I got a blue wig :D Its awesome!

The week after Christmas I died my hair red with my brother, then he got glasses and now everyone is saying how alike we look....  -_- ah whatevs eh? We are siblings so...

I can't believe I missed my own bloggiversary! :S   Geez....

On the plus side I've slightly expanded my gallery on DeviantArt (My DeviantArt!! :D) So you can check it out if you want.
What other holiday did I miss... Oh yeah the Hobbit came out...


Not that I count that as a holiday, but some people do :P  Seriously that's all I ever hear about anymore the Hobbit that, The Hobbit this.  I just want you guys to know that I didn't see this movie! Why? Because everyone told me to go and see it right now!! So I'm just going to wait for it to come out on DVD then I'll get around to watching it :P  (And seriously with all those dwarves where is Snow White in all of this?)

Oh, and Valentines Day...  (♥AAHH! Legend of Korra!♥!)Who could forget the day of free chocolates? Or the day when everyone goes and tells the person they love 'em because there is a holiday designed for it. Yeah... not really a valentines day fan, you should know that if you've read my valentines post from last year (click here to read it) And its not cause I don't have a "special someone" cause this year I do hehehe. (Though technically we aren't dating and stuff, we don't need to either cause we're just like that.) You guys should be proud of me though, because I did conform to the Valentines day trend of giving cards out so... yay me!


Well, I hope you guys haven't given up on me, and that you had a great 2012 (hah, I missed new years *face-palm* oops)  Mine was full of new and exciting things, and I'm really looking forward to this years adventure.
Happy New Year! 

I'll try to post more often, and I'll try not to leave a gap of five months this time :S

thanks for reading, Reader :)

Remember this...

   As a girl I think that we should all follow these steps...

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I love how his eyebrows bounce like every five words

   Guys, this one is for you :P

It's a Linkin Park thing...

     In the end, all I want is somewhere to belong, because I'm so numb, crawling away from what I've done. But I can't, it's part of me. And now I'm waiting for the end with no roads left to walk. I'm not a runway but sometimes it's easier to run when you are always pushing me away. I'm breaking the habit from the inside. I have no more sorrow but nobody's listening. I'm in pieces at the shadow of the day. Is this my December? Or simply the foreword? Don't stay, because I'm lying from you. You step up, reading my eyes, but there's no cure for the itch. I need a place for my head, by myself, away from your points of authority. When you faint, you'll hit the floor, so get off this high voltage carousel. Now I'm one step closer to the catalyst. And one more papercut doesn't make the difference with you. By myself at the edge of this new divide. This opening session may be iridescent, but I still will be forgotten. Maybe I've given up, but I'll bleed it out with my hands held high. Just leave out all the rest...


...So yeah, this is a really random thing I made out of Linkin Park song titles. Extremely random. I didn't use all of the songs but I used some of them, here's some of my favourites from in there :D

In The End, Somewhere I Belong, What I've Done, Easier To Run, Nobody's Listening, Points of Authority, Papercut, New Divide, Iridescent... :D Don't get me wrong I love all of LP's songs, but these are my favs :D

    Enjoy peoples!

Love

 Usually it comes with a smile, or a hug. It's beautiful and it takes your breath away. Yup. Love.
             What is love exactly?



    What I hate most about celebrities is that they go around saying I love you to every person they meet.  --The basic life of a celebrity: Meet someone. Get drunk. Party. Tell that someone they love them. Break up with that somebody. Find a new somebody. Get married. Have a kid. Get divorced. Find a new somebody.--   Sad really... I mean, love is hard right? Well no one ever said it was easy.

"Love's not safe at all. Love might let you fall. Love's not easy. Love will take your time. Love might feel unkind. Love will break you. But it's good." It's Good[Love's Not Safe] - Sidewalk Prophets.

And even when it gets hard, you've got to remember to

Because remember Love is what makes the world go round (right after smiles ;D).

If it's worth the fight, its worth the pain. When the rain clears, there will be a rainbow. Even if you can't see any hope, there is always love. Because unlike hope, love isn't a thought, it's a feeling.

Its like watching a mother and a father take care of their new born baby, its like seeing the joy in a child's eyes when they get a new puppy, it's like knowing that someone cares about you and won't ever let you go.

And you might run into people like this...

    They will act like they don't want to be loved, like they don't care one way or another. But trust me. Even the Snow Queen's ice cold heart can be melted by love.

So what is love?  It's a force that will always be there. You can't stop love from happening, it just is.

   So if you're all alone reading this, believing that no one can love you. Well, you're wrong. There is always some one who loves you. You might not be able to see him. But he died and rose again to show you just how much he loves you.

So now the question is...

What do you think of love?

The $hinester

:D

  Gueeeess what?

Yesiree, yours truely is now sixteen years of age. It's hard to believe another year and snuck up on me.

So, happy birthday to me xD  And to everyone all around the world who is celebrating a special day today :)

CANADA DAY!!!!!

   Happy Canada Day, my fellow Canadians, and Happy Day to any one else who is checking out my blog today :D

I can wait until the fireworks tonight xD They are probably my favourite part of this whole day, well besides hanging out with friends and family, swiming, and having an epic campfire ;)

Talk to you later guys!

The $hinester

Keep smiling :D

Superhero

    Yes, you probably know who the big green guy is right? And the guy with the star on his chest? How about the guy hanging upside down?

Correct.

  It's Hulk, Captain America, and Spider-man.

    Now how about the guy in the middle?

I'll give you a hint: He loves you waaaay more then then Spider-man or Hulk or Captain America do.

Another hint?

He's real, unlike Captain America, Hulk, or Spider-man who only appear on your televison screen.

It's Jesus. :) The greatest suerhero there is! And probably the best one too. Stronger then the Hulk, faster then Spider-man, and more loyal then Captain America. And he has no kryptonite. He'll protect you no matter what.

So who is your favourite superhero?

I think you already know who my favourite superhero is ;)

That's right

He is my savior and my superhero <3

Asthenophobia

   Know what that means?

Fear of Weakness

  Are you scared of being weak?

                Why?

 Did you know God uses the weak to do amazing things?

"God chose the weak things in the world to shame the strong." 1 Corinthians 1:27

 You aren't the weak link. You're what is holding everything together. There is always a reason for your "weakness".  Even if you hate it.

And trust me, I'm not saying that its bad to be strong, I'm just saying that its okay to be weak. Because

"He gives power to the weak, and strength to the powerless." Isaiah 40:29

  I've always longed to be strong, to over come my weaknesses.
   And I hate when someone tells me I can't do something... Not like "Don't cross the road yet" or "Don't touch that electric fence" but stuff like "Oh, you can't do that. You're a girl." Or "Don't even try to beat me, I know I'm better then you."
   Stuff like that really hits the wrong spot on me and I immediately take it as a challenge. Because I hate appearing weak.

   So I've decided to stop thinking of myself as a loser.

And if you say "I'm such a loser." to yourself all the time. Stop. Rewind. And press the other button.

Cause you aren't a loser. You're a winner.

You aren't weak. You're strong.

You aren't stupid. You're amazing.

Loser             Winner!

Better believe it, cause God loves you just the way you are. :)

Not Alone

 Do you feel like you're walking this walk alone? That your walk is an endless road with too many twists and turns?

Maybe you feel like your life is a maze and you've hit a dead-end. That you can't go anywhere anymore. You think you're stuck?

Maybe...
Maybe you need to back up there's probably a door there. And you just can't see it.


Just look a little harder. There's always a door. No matter how hard things get, you'll come through, because there's always Someone watching you.

So don't think you're alone. You're never alone. There's always someone. Someone who cares, who will hear you. Someone who loves you.

So yeah. That walk that you think you're taking alone?

Look over your shoulder, and I think you'll realize that...



So keep you're chin up. Because there's always Someone loving you. :)

Hey People.

Yes I'm enjoying these single subject Posts Of Encouragement :D And if ya don't like... Well then, don't read it. :) There's always a choice. Always.

Smile :)

   Do you ever get the feeling not everyone enjoys smiling?

Maybe they just need someone to make them smile...


So if you're reading this, right now. I want you to smile. Smile at everyone. See the difference it makes. This world needs more happiness.



Smiles make the difference, believe me. I've seen someone looking so sad, I don't even have to know them, but I smile. And they smile too.  Because people may say

"Love makes the world go 'round."

But really? Smiles are the first step to love. Trust me. There is no better why to show someone that you love them, then to give them a smile.


So are you smiling yet? If not, then maybe you need someone to smile at you.

Here's your challenge of the day.

Smile.

And see the effect you have...

If you find your pic on here just tell me :D But remember to smile :)

Push

How come everyone is always pushing?

• Pushing to be on top
• Pushing to win
• Pushing others where they want them to go
• Pushing for love
• Pushing to be noticed
• Pushing, Pushing Pushing

I'm tired of all this pushing...Tired of being what everyone wants.

I try to be what everyone wants, but sometimes it just feels good to take off the mask...And once my true colours are exposed...Everyone hides :\
It's kind of sad actually. Everyone wants you to be the way they want, but they never stop to listen to you or to be happy for you.

I know this sounds like a rant, but I'm just getting tired. I want people to know that if they keep pushing, I'm going to start pushing back.

Once I was following my family in this huge crowd, it felt like we were going one way and everyone was going the other. I was pushed and pulled back with the crowd. I felt completely hopeless until I saw my dad's head through the mass of people. Then I had to push myself forward, so that I didn`t get lost again.

Yeah... Sorry about this depressingness.... ... ...

Comic Con

So today my family and I went out to the Comic Con. It was pretty cool. To tell the truth, I enjoyed the wait to get in more then I enjoyed the real thing :S Haha, hey watching people arrive in cool costumes is really cool ;)

I didn't get alot of photos, but my dad's friend's wife (lol) got lots and lots, so if your interested in seeing more photos, just keep checking out this post, I'll update it for you.

Anyways, we got there at like...8:45 or something. Then we stood in line. We actually weren't that far back in line. Thankfully.   The lines were crazy at nine though. It was like a snake stretching out of veiw... :|    We stood in line next to Catwoman! She was actually pretty talkitive and funny.

Costume count: There was loooot of Jokers and Harley Quinns there. Same with Legend of Zelda characters. Oh and quite a few Jedi as well. I saw like one or two Cloud Strifes, one Vincent, and lots and lots of other stuff. There was some Disney characters too. Oh and there was a Darth Vader, that made my day. I really wanted to give him bunny ears while he was posing for some people... I was too short... xD

There's Belle. I don't really think she wanted her picture taken..
Oops. Plus, she had a tattoo on her left arm...that didn't really go.... :S
lol...

    I saw storm troopers!!!!! I was so happy!  There was like two of them in one spot and they were doing this really funny dance.     I tapped a storm trooper on the right shoulder then I quickly walked away, my dad's friend's wife was like right behind me, so when the storm trooper turned around he looked right at her. She started laughing her head off and the storm trooper just kind of cocked his head at her. <That was probably the best moment.

It was a long day all in all. Inside it was hot in the crowd, and outside the sun was hot...

  And no...I didn't dress up. I kind of wish I did now, but I really didn't want to pose for a hundred photos. :D   So yeah, more photos coming soon.

Say Awesome friends xD

 << XD (not my pic, but still DV!!)

New Trend Starting

   Yeah, new trends, there's always something goin' round. Be it a new fashion statement or a cold ;) So this is actually one of my best Friendie's ideas and I'm just helping him out abit xD.

So right now, matching socks are pretty much a no-go. Everyone's socks are totally mix'n'matched.

Which I did for a while before it was really popular. I only really do it because my dog eats my socks... :S LOL oops... Anyways, my Friendie's idea is to do the same thing with his shoes. Awesome right? Yes definatly awesome.  I mean if you do it with your socks, why not do it with your shoes right?

Aha! There's my attempt. ^^^ XD Let's see your shot at this new trend. And hey, don't be afraid to try something new. There's nothing scary about being different. Besides in my book, weird and different and strange is awesome.     Usually the weirdos are the ones who make an impact. :D
So remember...

And stay awesome my dear readers :) See you around the bend with our new trend. XD

Rain

    ♪Rain rain, it's okay. Go back to sleep and cry another day ♪

   Yep...rain. I don't actually mind rain. Actually, I love standing outside in the rain. But I don't like rain when it stops us from going outside, or playing at the park with our friends/friendies.
    And someone got this idea in every one's head, that rain is depressing. Is it really?

"If you think sunshine is pure happiness, then you've never danced in the rain."

   I've never danced in the rain, but I want to. Really really want to. If standing out in the rain feels amazing, then dancing in the rain must be exhilarating.

"Life isn't waiting for the storm to pass, it's learning to dance in the rain."

   Yes, I love rain poetry. But hey don't rain on my parade. Actually, its fine, life needs more rain.

"When life rains on your parade, look up rather then down. For without the rain, there would be no rainbow."

    So do you think rain is depressing? Do you wish that the sun would just come out and the clouds would go and hide in their bedroom? Then maybe you should go and dance in the rain. It's not hard.

   You don't even need an umbrella...

"Into each life, some rain must fall."

   But it doesn't need to be sad rain. Always remember that. Though you may think everything is going wrong and that the rain won't leave, hold out your hands and turn your face up to the sky. Let the rain fall on you. You might realize it's not all that bad.
