  • Lately, I've been feeling amazing. Like I can honestly do anything I set out to do. I've been feeling like I could be truly successful. Everything has a brighter outlook when you think with a positive attitude, heck even throw in a tablespoon of confidence. Looking back about 5, 6 years ago.. I never would have thought I'd be where I am right now. It's amazing, honestly the greatest feeling I could ever have. I just needed to share that with someone. :)

  • Bad Days, and Evil Ways

    Are you the popular kid, the jock, the geek, the goth, the prep, or the average? Everyone is branded these days.

    The day I entered middle school, for some unknown reason I was labled the target. I'm your average girl.. blonde, tall, average build. I'm goofy, funny, and nice. But for some reason I became the target for bullies. I remember it like it was yesterday. I had a best friend, one I thought would never turn her back on our friendship. However, I was wrong. Not only did she turn her back on our friendship, she stabbed me in mine.

    One day, out of nowhere bullies started pouring out of the woodwork. Teasing me for my apperance, threatening to "mess up my face" or "get their gang after me". I would go to school everyday, be confronted, or talked about, and my "best friend" decided she wanted nothing to do with me, which led to my permanent absence from school. I became home schooled, and I was alone for almost a year. I had plenty of suicidal thoughts, and I had to see a psychiatrist. All because of heartless people who felt they needed to single me out and make me feel uncomfortable.

    I'm now a senior in high school, and I'm steadily attending. My story has a lot more to it than I shared on this blog, but noone has time to read that long of a story.

    This subject is so often spoken of, but often pushed to the back burner in it's importance. I'm sure that many of you have either bullied someone, been bullied, or watched someone else be bullied. Sure it's easy to be the popular one, never having to worry about being in the victim's shoes. But think about it for a minute. Just imagine what it would feel like if all your friends no matter what label you have just turned on you. What if you were bullied? What if what you think is harmless taunting is responsible for ending someone's life?  I think it's time that someone stood up for what was right and did a little more to stop this.

    Your thoughts?

I was thinking about just throwing together some clothes for whatever costume I choose, so just let me know if you have any suggestions. Are you guys excited for halloween this year? I am. I'm definatly feeling dressing up this year, my boyfriend might even dress up too (:

    Nexttt.. I just want to say thanks to everyone who helped me get started on here. <3

    Does anyone have any advice on how to spread the word about the advice aspect of the blog? I mostly created it for that purpose but i dont know how to let people know about it. Should I just post it on popular blogs?
