As I’ve been talking about on twitter for the last few days, my boyfriend of 5+ years, Carter, has been acting really weird. On August 10th though he finally called me and said that we needed to talk. I wasn’t sure why and I was really worried. On August 11th he called and we made plans for that Friday; August 13th. We went out and he was still acting really strange. I tried to get him to talk to me about it but he kept changing the subject or similar. I hated it! He took me to a really nice dinner though and then, you’ll never believe it, at the end of dinner he apologized! He said he was sorry for being so weird and distant. He loves me and he hoped I wasn’t mad. Of course I wasn’t. I was just worried. We spoke for a bit and finally he ordered a slice of cake of the desert menu. He put a little candle in it and lit it up. It’s not our Anniversary or anything like that so I was completely lost and confused. That’s when he pulled out a black box. I thought maybe it were earrings as an apology gift, but then he said, “I hope we’ll be able to celebrate today for the rest of our lives. I love you Miss Taylor Mitcheal and I hope that you’ll do me the honor of becoming my wife.” I swear I could have just fainted right then and there! I loved him, yes, but I never expected to marry him! So I just stared. I guess my silence worried him as he started to pull the ring back back, whispering, “I guess not…” Without thinking I reached out and grabbed his hand. I didn’t realize till later that I was crying. I gold him that I would marry him and that I loved him more then anyone or anything. After that he got mad at me for crying because it messed up my make up. We laughed. I’ve never been so happy before! Carter asked my father for my hand on August 14th. The father looked surprised but said if this is what i wanted and was ready for, then he supported it completely. So I’m officially engaged and Carter isn’t acting weird anymore! I love you Carter!! I’ll try and find a picture of the rung online to show you. It’s a beautiful ring! I’d love to be able to show you guys!

I know I haven’t been on twitter long, but I’ve never heard about any other “special” hashtags so for fun, I thought i would come up with a few on my own. #SnapshotSunday (#SS) – A lot of us love to take or share pictures. This would be a great way to do that! You could share a picture(s) via a link and let your friends see them! You could even share online photo albums too if you want. I think it would be a lot of fun! #MusicMonday (#MM) – Everyone tells what they’re listening too, what music they like. It’s all about music because really, who doesn’t love music? #TumblrTuesday (#TT) – I follow quite a few pople and I’ve seen that most of them use a site called Tumblr. Tumblr (to me) is kind of like a twitter for pictures, videos, quotes, etc, etc. Whatever you can think of! Well, what if we had #TumblrTuesday where you could recommend your favorite tumblr users? Like this,
(Those are my three best friends by the way, figured they would be great for the example! You could also just pit their usernames, or use TinyURL.com to make the urls shorter. #WackyWednesday (#WW) -It’s a jump off of #WTFWednesday. I don’t think everyone knows what WTF meanies, plus, I’m not really into the cussing used there. I think Wacky is a more fun and creative word. It holds the same meaning as WTF but doesn’t hold any “bad words” and i think it has a more fun ring to it then #WTFWednesday. So this would be the day where you tweet about something crazy you did, heard, or saw. Maybe you’d like to share a WTF picture or quote. This would be a great day to do it! #ThinkingThursday (#TT) -Its a bit of a long title, but I like the concept idea behind it. The idea behind this day is to share ideas. You can share and help plan ideas and thoughts with your friends. Say you’re a blogger and need help with a new blog subject, then on this day maybe you can get someone to help you with a topic! #FollowFriday (#FF) – We all already know what this is. It’s when you recommend twitter users that you think people should follow. #SadSaturday (#SS) – The one day where you want to wish all your troubles away. On this day you can talk about any and all troubles you had during the week. Maybe you had a really bad date, or a bad dealing with a classmate, or an argument with a friend. Whatever the trouble(s) of the week were, you can talk about them today. So, those are all the ones i can think of. Maybe you’ll find one you can use or like. If you have any ideas for alternate weekly tags, then comment!

It was awful, I gotta say. In my dream it was dark, sometime around 3:30 in the morning. I was walking down the hall from my bedroom after having just woken up I had intended to go to the kitchen for a glass of water when I heard this odd buzzing sound. I followed the sound down the stairs moving towards the kitchen. The sound got louder, it was a kind of on and off buzzing sound. As I got closer I realized it sounded like a bug, but no bug was this loud. So I tip-toed down the hall, the hall nightlight guiding my way. Finally, I came across a large, moving black shadow. It was the source of the buzzing sound! With the night light now behind me it made it hard to see what it was. So I moved it closer. You’ll never guess what it was that I saw. I stopped and stared at the creature before me. It was HUGE bug! Not just any kind of bug either! No. It was mostly a bumble bee but had wings like a dragon fly (or maybe a butterfly…I don’t really remember), and lots of legs like a spider! I just about screamed but in fear, I stood silently my eyes wide. I was afraid that if I moved I might frighten it into attacking me or something. For a long while (like 2 minutes) I just stood there watching the grotesque creature try to climb it’s way up our hall wall. To say the least, it must have been to heavy as it would make it about an inch up the wall and then fall back down. Finally I summoned up the courage to call for my mom. I couldn’t speak loudly, my voice too stiff from fear. After a few calls, I was lucky and my mom woke up. She seemed totally unafraid of the bug as she picked it up and took it into the kitchen where she threw it into the trashcan. After that we got a thing a bug spray from the garage and literally poured the entire container into the trashcan killing the gross bug. I woke up in a cold sweat after that. See, the bugs I hate most in the entire world are (in order) bumble bees, spiders, then dragon flies. Either way, it was an awful dream! It took me forever to fall asleep again that night. I thought about looking up to see what the world’s biggest was and how big it was, but what if the world’s biggest bug was bigger then the one in my dream? Then I would really have nightmares! By the way, if you’re wondering, here are the estimated measurements for the bug in my dream. Length (from head to tail): 12 inches. So you can see, incredibly gross and disturbing! Since my dream though, mom and I have sprayed bug spray all around the house, inside and out. I don’t think we’ll be bothered by any bugs for a long while. We kind of went over board on the bug pspray, but I think that’s ok! As long as it keeps those nasty little creatures away then going over board is fine by me! haha No Comments Yet Filed Under: dreams, fear Tagged: bugs, creepy, dreams, glad it wasn't real, i'm alive!, nightmare, serious fears, thank god, YIKES! Sup! Long time no blog, huh? Man, I’ve really missed the site. It feels like it’s been forever since I was last active on it. Funny thing about that is I have been active on it! I’ve been working really hard to get it up and running! As for real blogging issues, my boyfriend, Carter has been just a dream. He’s taken me out almost every day for the last 2 months. It’s wonderful! On the weekends we go clubbing, partying, or to just have fun at some random place. During the week after work and college classes he’s taken me to the movies, dinner, the park, anywhere! Sometimes we just stay at home and play games; card games, board games. He’s just been wanting to spend a lot of time together recently. It makes me really happy. I love him so much. A dream come true is what he is! He invited me out to a really fancy restaurant this Friday though. I mean, it’s really expensive. I am kind of curious to know what’s with all the hanging out, dates, and now the really fancy dinner. What could he be planning? For real? He’s not a millionaire; he’s just a teenager, like me. Well, ok, he’s more like 20, but that’s beside the point. The point is, he can’t really have enough money to take me out all the time. I don’t really want to ask him about it. I love spending time with him and I don’t want to leave him with the wrong impression. I would die if he thought I didn’t want to spend time with him. I treasure all our memories and time. I just kind of want to know whats going on. I don’t think I’ll ask though. I would rather just play it out and see where it goes. I’m just dying to see how it all turns out. So I’ll wait till he tells me whats up. Maybe he will on Friday during our date. I hope so!

The site is now officially open as you can see. I’m so proud of myself! I’m not too sure about how I feel with the current design though. I’ve had it up during the entire site building process. I think I’ll leave it up for a while longer though. It’s very stylish I think. Now that the site is up I’m going to blog a lot more, tweet more often, and try to be over all more active online. I really enjoy blogging and I usually have something to blog about; even if it’s just something short. I want to keep my blog posts interesting though even if they’re a little on the short side. I’m just really glad that I’ll be able to blog and everything. I should also apologize. I really wanted to have some visitor content up for you guys. I even had some all prepared. The pages only needed minor edits but then my host’s ex-host switched servers and didn’t tell anyone until way later. I went through and out first I didn’t see anything missing, but later on I saw the visitor content wasn’t right. One of the visitor content pages was still there, but it was the original copy and not the finished one. All the other pages were gone. By the way, if you want your website to be reviewed, just ask and I’ll consider it. I only do reviews that I’m interested in doing though. I can be somewhat picky. Just don’t take it personally. So the fun part is that I am so glad to be working on my site! I’m happy to be blogging and twittering and all that fun stuff! I hope the site will become a great success! It should definitely stay active! Well, I fully intend to keep it active. I’m also working on another website though with my friend Samantha. Her and i will be opening the website up together. It may or may not offer visitor content but it’ll be awesome none the less! So you guys had better be looking forward to that too! In closing, I’m glad I finally got my arse in gear and opened up. I am proud to say I will not procrastinate anymore! …Well, maybe just a little bit. No Comments Yet Filed Under: Site Tagged: blog, content lost, excited, grand opening, host, server, visitor content, websites Believe it or not I got myself a twitter! Everyone seems to have one anymore so i figured I might as well get one too. What do you think? I’m tempted to change my profile picture though. It just doesn’t really match my profile design and I would rather it match. Don’t you think so? Or do you think I should keep my image as it is? Other then that I’m really enjoying my twitter. I have my account set to private but I accept anyone who asks to follow me. I’m following a lot of other people and companies though. I’m really enjoying myself actually and to think I didn’t believe I would like twitter! I think I should tweet more often though. However I’m not really sure what to tweet about.

I wanted WordPress, but most of my favorite designs weren’t coded for WordPress. That was majorly upsetting. Then my host though offered to try and get someone to either (1) code the layouts I liked to WordPress or (2) make me my own customized theme. After a bit, someone said they would make me a theme. Like oh my god! I just couldn’t believe it! I dunno, maybe it’s just luck but I’m really happy about it. Who wouldn’t be? I’ve already seen a preview of the layout too. I can’t wait to get the coding for it and all! I really want to put it up for you all to see too! It’s really great and Lady Gaga themed. <3 Just you wait! I love it so I bet you all will too! No Comments Yet Filed Under: Site, Updates Tagged: Choosing, FanUpdate, Hard Choices, Help, Layouts, Personalize, Themes, WordPress I guess this can be counted as my first real blog post, right? We didn’t buy much – lack of money. I did get this really cute t-shirt reading, “I’m like a princess in sneakers!” I think it’s my favourite shirt now! Once I got home though I found my little cumin, Mandy, Aunt Lyn, and Uncle Phil had come over. I hadn’t realized mum had planned a family gathering like this. I wish mum would learn how to warn me about this stuff. You know, ahead of time?! well apparently, while I was gone Mandy had decided to go through some of my stuff. It was my make-up. My once favourite and very expensive magenta lip stick is now a broken, mashed up mess on my bedroom carpet. I love Mandy like any family member would and all but I wish her parents would teach her better. That, or watch her! It’s not like this is the first time this has happened you know. The worst part about it is that her parents won’t even pay for the damages; not that my parents will ask either though. What a load of crap. >:( Mum and pop just say, “she’s only a child; it’s not her fault. you should have put your things in a safer place.” It’s My Room! Why was she even in my room in the first place? What’s even funnier about this is that my own little sister, Annie doesn’t get into things. When she was really little she tried to but you smacked her hand, she would cry for a moment and then wonder off. Mandy just stares at her hand for a moment then goes right back to what she was doing. Plus I know that Uncle Phil and Aunt Lyn aren’t the most responsible parents. Phil is only like 27 and Lyn is like 25. Need I say more? Still, the point is she shouldn’t have been in my room in the first place. Second, her parents should teach her better. Child or not, she should know better or they should be watching her. Then again though I think they should pay for the damages their daughter caused to my stuff. It’s just not cool and it’s irresponsible of them. Don’t come over and break my things unless it’s OK for me to break your’s. And we all if I broke their stuff they would be furious and make me pay for it regardless of how old I was at the time! That’s the shit!
