What the internet thinks I am

Almost all of us have tried those online quizzes. And yes, I have too. These are some of my results.

I’m a rose “You have a noble and sophisticated bearing. You are an eternal romantic, and a firm believer in the power of love, which makes you a thoughtful and caring friend.”

I should have dark hair “You are cloaked in mystery. Dark and mysterious attracts guys and not girls, so you don’t have a lot of girlfriends. Instead, you’re one of the guys. Men respect you and women just don’t know what to think! Keep them guessing with a dark shade of black.”

I’m actually 18 “You’re a badattitude 18 year old. You feel like an adult, but you have so much living to do! Keep up your enthusiasm and be open to trying new things.”

I’m Maria from the Sound of Music “A confident free spirit, you believe everything happens for a reason — and that much more happens when you put your mind to it! You are creative, resourceful, and love music. You’re nurturing, patient, and kind — and probably great with kids!”

I would have a turquoise lightsaber “Turquoise-bladed lightsabers are usually less meticulously crafted or calibrated than other lightsabers, and can fail when put under too much pressure, but can also output more power than standard lightsabers. Turquoise lightsaber wielders tend to have personalities that match their more primal weapons, and they often act without first considering the consequences.”

I would live in a victorian house “You are slightly old-fashioned and appreciate traditional values. You like to live life fully, on a grand scale, and you celebrate every occasion with a sit-down family dinner and a bottle of champagne.”

I am Mary in the Bible “You’re the friend of everyone, loving and reflective. People feel comfortable in your home. You know how to prioritize. You don’t let your busy life distract you from spending time with the things that matter.”

I’m a sky blue crayon You are calm and laid back and are the silent cord that holds the group together. ”

I’m the 1980’s “You are a larger than life, ambitious person. You believe that you should live big or go home. You appreciate the bold days of the 1980s, when no one ever toned it down. You believe in working hard and playing hard. You can’t help but love money and nice things. You are a bit ruthless and power hungry. The one who dies with the most toys wins, right?”

I’m a Tornado “It may seem like you can’t do much damage, but you can pack a big punch. You’re very powerful. You rarely swing into action, but when you do, look out! You can spin yourself into quite a frenzy. At your worst, you leave a serious path of destruction. You pretty much wipe out everything in site.”

I’m a Cheerleader of a friend “You’re the friend that’s always there to encourage and cheer on your friends. You’re the first one there to cheer them up after a bad day and you’re in the front row when they have a big day. Everyone needs a friend like you to help them celebrate or cheer them up when they’re down!”

I am spiritually gifted in faith “You are able to see things that most people can’t see. It’s almost like you can peek into the future. You’re have the mind of a great visionary. You are ambitious and you firmly believe in your goals, and you will reach them because you are the type of person who can.”

So were my scores accurate?

*update*

I am Rett Butler from Gone with the Wind You are independent, daring, unafraid, and always thinking ahead. You love the finer things in life, and are excellent with money.”

 

Spring Banquet 2014

What a way to party out my last Hallstrom school year. Getting ready with my drama twins, pictures at Sinnissippi, dinner at Olive Garden and dance time! I have to say it was one of my favorite dances I’ve been too. Turn Down For What three times, I think yes. Glow sticks, heck yeah! So much happy. But the party didn’t end there. Sleepover and brunch with the gang (that included a nap time) and a graduation party the next day. One of my favorite weekends so far this year. Oh, summer will be so great.

My Last Play

After eight plays with Hallstrom, I finally reached my last one. I ended with A Midsummer’s Night’s Dream, my favorite Shakespeare play. Yes, I’m only a Junior, but I’m going to community college full time next semester and most of my friends are graduating. Not to mention the directors that I have been with are also leaving. It’s time to be done. It was a pretty emotional last play for everyone because it was the last time we would all be onstage together, but it was good. And crazy. By the way, it was set in the eighties. With Eighties music.

Oh, the Sweetness

I recently had my sweet sixteenth. Being the go get it, independent spirit that I am, I always loved turning another year older. But this year was different. Don’t get me wrong, I’m elated to get my license, and have all the other privileges that go along with sixteen, but this year I didn’t have the month long anticipation for my birthday. I wasn’t counting down the days, or guessing what my presents would be or anything. But there is one thing that I did do prior to my sixteenth. I wrote myself a letter. Just a short two page one. I wrote it about eight months ago and hid it in a draw to be opened on my birthday. Reading it again, I was actually amazed at how much I needed what I had written to myself.

You see, among other things, I set a goal for myself in the letter. Not a crazy resolution, but more like a simple thought: sweetness. For the sixteenth year of my life, I’m going to focus on being sweet. Right now (and prior to the letter), I wouldn’t think of myself as sweet. I try to be tough — as tough as an 105 lb girl can be. I try to be self-assured and I succeed most of the time, too. To me, those are both very very good things, and I’ve worked to attain them. But sweetness is also a necessity. With decisions to be made about my future (i.e. job, college, carrior, etc.) I need to keep a serving mind. I want to think of others. I want to care for them. I want to make someone’s day. I want to say nice things to people. I want to be appreciative and show I much I care. Because the truth is I care a lot. I just wish I could show it more.

So this year let it be

as you wish.
