Ipods. I rarely go anywhere without mine anymore.

We Want to Know Wednesday: St. Patrick's Day Edition

1. Do you wear green on St. Patrick's Day?
Usually, but I don't need a specific reason to wear green since it's my favorite color.

2. Why is St. Patrick's Day celebrated on March 17th?
It's the day that St. Patrick died apparently.

By watching a lot of college basketball, because I've always assumed that's an old Irish tradition.

Well everything looked like a four leaf clover when I was a kid and hadn't learned how to count yet, but I never officially have.

5. Have you ever been to Ireland?
No, but Ireland could possibly be a good place to visit some day.

We Want to Know Wednesday: Week 24

{1} What is something you'd like to change about yourself?
I wish it was easier for me to tell people that I care about them. It usually doesn't come out the way I intended it to, but I have good intentions at least. It's always been much more comfortable for me to try to show people that I care about them than it is to directly tell them.
 

{2} What are your Top 3 blogging tips for other bloggers?
      A. I’ve learned that it’s important to blog for yourself and not for other people. When I first started I tried too much to do posts that had a set subject or were “popular” ideas/surveys from other blogs so people would possibly comment on it. In recently years I’ve made my blog more of a personal journal where I’m just putting exactly how I feel out there about whatever happens in my life even if it's negative sometimes when I have a bad day.

      B. Using photos is always helpful especially if you have trouble being descriptive like I do.


      C. Trying to set my blog up was overwhelming at first. I was clueless about where to put the codes in to get the layout design the way I wanted it, but it all makes sense eventually.

{3}Do you think everything happens for a reason?    
I feel that the main reason things happen is to give us perspective.
 
{4} What is a physical feature you have been complimented on? 

A recent compliment I received was that I have "nice eyes and a cute smile.” I don't know how legitimate that is, but I remember that it made my day.  

{5} How frequently do you change your blog playlist? 

I'm constantly changing my playlist.  It's fun to discover a new song and put it on my blog.  I don't know if anyone ever listens to it other than me, but I've tried to have a good variety of songs in my playlist for people to enjoy.

People Who Have Inspired Me: Bethany

This month I've chosen to write about my favorite cousin Bethany. It's been very inspiring and beneficial to me to watch how outgoing and friendly of a person that Bethany is to everyone. It seems that she's maintained an enthusiasm or love for life that's contagious and spending time with her does give me a boost especially whenever I've felt low.  She's always had the ability to restore a sense of hope and happiness back into my life when I needed it the most.

Bethany has been very supportive of me for as long as I can remember. She always encourages me and also can make me believe that I'm capable of doing anything. I appreciate that aside from being one of my cousins Bethany's a true friend that I've felt comfortable talking to about anything I've needed to or wanted.  I'm very grateful to Bethany for the positive example she continues to be in my life that motivates me to become a better person.
