Look At This Madness

Featured: slightly crooked post-sunset at Seal Beach, CA I can confidently say this past weekend has been one of the best I've had. California is truly a great place to live. One day I am hiking in the snow with a group of great people and the next I find myself at Seal Beach with a good friend. And the best part? I had fun. The bruises of falling countless times while we off trailed in the snow and the stubbed toe I got from walking bare foot at the beach are all worth it because in the end, I lived. This is all to say, don't take things for granted. Appreciate the world we live in. It wasn't really until yesterday I realized how great I have it living in California. There's a lot of world to explore and a lot of memories waiting to be made. Now get out there and make them! *encouraging fist in the air*

His wondering mind has gotten the best of him before and his future won't be much different. He'll find a girl who is perfect. But then again, they all were. She has just enough rebellion in her blood but not so much as to make an imbalance. They are perfect for each other because of the fact they balance each other out. After two years of dating they will get married and after two years of an okay marriage he will wonder once again. Too many shots and two handful hits of weed and he's gone. Now begins the blackout. He won't remember most of everything that happened except for the girl he cheated with. She was a brunette, spunky, playful and worst of all, tempting. The worst part though is he fell into the temptation. His mind in a dark oblivion, knowing it was wrong but being to heavily influenced to stop. The next morning he'll lie there feeling empty, full of regret, and a clouded mind. What have I done? he'll think to himself. The girl who was once p

This morning my face was exceptionally rosy and I came up with the (horrible) idea of making a cinnamon, water, and peppermint extract mixture. The idea was to use it as a sort of toner in hopes of settling down the redness.  This has been one of my least brightest moments in life because seconds later my face was burning and bright red. Please take note: PEPPERMINT EXTRACT WILL NOT REDUCE REDNESS OF THE SKIN. IT ISN'T A BAD IDEA TO GOOGLE THIS BEFORE FINDING OUT THE HARD WAY LIKE I DID. Anyway, I had work today and  did not want to show up looking like a literal red head, so for once I decided to put on all my makeup. (I have 90% stopped wearing makeup all together except for on rare occasions like today). This has been the result: My mum was staring at me in a funny way so I finally asked why. "You just look so pale and your lips are so dark... I'm not used to seeing you like this." To which I responded, "That's because my face is normally makeup-less

What is your biggest regret?  I stopped to think about mine. I couldn't quite pin point it but one thing I realized is that if I continued to live the way I was, I would wind up with a lot of regret. So what have I changed? I've been living outside my comfort zone and trying new things. I'd highly recommend this lifestyle because not only am I happier but I feel alive and less stressed out. My regret for the past few years could be summed up like this: dwelling on the past, never going outside my comfort zone and not really enjoying myself.  Since my lifestyle change, I have rekindled old friendships and made a couple new ones. I used to think I was so different from everyone else in the world but then I realized I was just being narrow-minded.  Random side note: a boyfriend should never make you stop hanging out with friends that are the opposite sex I have gone out to dinner with people I don't know, five minutes after being asked. I have hiked to the
