Happy Fathers Day

Hey Blogging World

May I begin by saying Happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there. I have spoilt mine and I hope everyone else is doing the same. We all love our dads and they deserve this special day to sit back, relax and watch the footy. But isn't that what they do every Sunday?

Day 21: One of your favourite shows. 

This is tricky as I am a bit of a t.v junky. At the moment I am watching Four Weddings Australia and just previously Wife Swap USA was on the wonderful television. I always say that if I were a vegetable I would be a potato because I love my couch. I love the shows Revenge, Twisted, Winners and Losers etc. but one of my all time favourites would have to be...


Gilmore Girls. The show follows the lives of Lorelai Gilmore and her daughter Lorelai, also known as Rory. Lorelai became pregnant at a young age so it shows the life of two women that seem like best friends most of the time, but of course every few episodes there is a little argument. It's okay though because usually the episode after they make up. The girls have their fair share of romance throughout the series, Lorelai dating the diner guy Luke and Rory's father Christopher on and off keeps the audience choosing their side like Team Edward and Jacob. Then there is Rory's love life, first love as a teenager makes us all aww for her. It's almost as if we get to see Rory grow up just like Lorelai does. Lorelai gets by with the wonderful help of her best friend Suki, otherwise known as Melissa McCarthy.


Indeed, the once adorable Suki on Gilmore Girls has turned into a crazy bridesmaid, a thief stealing identities into a crazy cop who is outrageously hilarious. I really think she is one of the best comedic actors at this time on screen. However all I can think of when I look at this actress cracking jokes, is this chef who was Lorelai's best friend, wife to Jackson and mother of two children in Gilmore Girls.

However in terms of movies, I would recommend seeing Identity Thief. I have heard that Bridesmaids is a hilarious movie even though I have not seen it. The Heat, however, is probably one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy in the same movie, working together as crime fighting cops. I just loved it.




But back to the show. I think what I love most about Gilmore Girls is the fact that it just seems so real, and even though none of it is like me, I still feel as though I can relate to it all in my own way. You're left hooked after every episode and I would always run home after I got off the bus to arrive home and turn on the tv to find the most recent Gilmore Girls episode had been recorded. I was like a child at Christmas! I would recommend it to any teenage girl as you will laugh, cry and love watching the lives of these two amazing women.

Day 20 is Important

Hey Blogging World

Day 20: How important you think education is.

I think education is very important. If I was not educated I would not be writing to you write now because I would not have the ability to write, nor would I be able to even read anything to know how to get onto this blog. You need it in everyday living; reading signs, communicating with others, buying things! Heck, where would us girls be if we didn't know about maths and being able to buy things accordingly!


 Even though I am not the biggest fan of school and I know many people would want to be anywhere else, school is important because... well it's where the educating happens. It's not all bad, they give you a break from the educating and you get to make new friends and have fun at recess and lunchtime. It's also good because once you get to a certain point you are allowed to choose what you get educated in! There is actually a lot of choice at school and it's not all awful and boring. I appreciate school and the education that I am offered there because I know that there are people in there world who are not fortunate enough to receive the education that so many people loathe.

The sad reality is that there are countries in the world where children are not able to attend school or get an education. There are many factors that contribute to this such as there is no school nearby for the children to attend. For some kids they cannot afford to go to school as they have to stay home and help take care of the rest of the family. It's unfortunate and is something that needs to be changed. These kids are not only being affected at the time, but in the future they will find it difficult to get a job or even just get out of their community as they won't be able to do simple things such as reading and writing. There are people out there that will scam you if they don't think you are well educated. It's quite disturbing that this is the world we live in but it is the truth and it's an ugly truth that needs to be changed.

A big topic today. Hope I didn't make any brains hurt.

Disrespecting Day 19

Hey Blogging World

Day 19: Disrespecting your parents.

Disrespecting is not a good thing, let alone disrespecting your parents! I don't think you should disrespect your parents as they are the people who raised you and guide you and all they really do is care about you. This is easier said than done.

I love my parents and I know that they love me and care about me, but sometimes I feel like they are against me and therefore I speak to them in a way which I usually regret afterwards. I think they know I am sorry for the things I say, but I like to remind them that I am every now and then. That's the thing, sometime we don't think before what we say and we might say or do something that we regret afterwards. But the most important thing is that you apologize for what you have done. And make sure you are sincere about it, there is nothing worse than someone apologizing because they feel like they have to, not because they actually want to.

I also know being a teenager is hard and we all want to fit in and be accepted by our peers. Sometimes this means doing things you wouldn't usually do, such as disrespecting your parents. This could be in the example of if you want to go to a party but your parents won't let you, so you sneak out or say you are going to a friend's house and sneak out in that way. We all want to be rebellious and do that sort of thing at times, but I can proudly say I have never done that or anything that bad to my parents. And being 'rebellious' won't get you anywhere. Sure, you may get a few friends that won't accept you if you're not you. Sure, you will most likely get in huge trouble with your parents who will end up trusting you less than they already do. Doesn't that sound like a real dealbreaker?

Beliefs in Day 18

Hey Blogging World

Day 18: Your beliefs.


I believe in ghosts. They are real and I have heard of stories about ghosts being around from people who I believe are not insane. Going along with all those creepy things, I believe in the whole idea of luck and unluckiness. So seeing a black cat with green eyes freaks me out, walking underneath a ladder is a no no and if I were to break a mirror, I would hide in my bedroom for five years. In saying that, my favourite number is 13 so that kind of contradicts my beliefs in a way.

I do believe in the motto:

I think it is a wonderful way to live but it is really difficult to keep that belief at time because many people don't live like this. It is so hard to respect someone when they won't respect you, and at times you feel like just giving up on treating people like you would like to be treated because they don't return the favour. But you shouldn't give up because eventually, if everyone finally realizes that's the way that the whole world should be, maybe we might all be friends for once.

Not all my beliefs but just a few of them. Weird, whacky and valuable.

Highs and Lows

Hey Blogging World

Today's prompt is another one of a sentimental one so I will try to find a way to make it half funny for you. I have actually been feeling unwell today so I spent half the day at home. But this gives me more time to write to you people of the internet!

Day 17: Your highs and lows of this past year.

See what I mean by the whole sentimental thing?


This past year I have had many high and lows. I go to Lorne as most of you know and there is a playground there which I love going on. I really am just a wee child at heart. I always feel really high when I am on that playground, especially when I am on the top of this twirly thing! But on the other hand, I feel low a lot of the time at the playground as I'm usually on the ground for most of it. Not because I am clumsy, which I am, but because I usually just fall to the ground from laughter or too much excitement. I'm not sure if it is the best thing for me, but meh.


Oh another thing about Lorne. (I feel like a lot of my high and lows happen there) My friends and I have a daily tradition of getting a slushie. Now I have a feeling that they are very sugar filled because usually after we have them, we are all feeling a little energetic after that. That's saying it nicely. But then I'm on a complete low when I have to leave Lorne as it is such an amazing place. Although you have heard about that in my Lorne post I guess.

YUMMMMMM
I'm high when I am having fun. I'm low when I'm tired or sick. I'm high when I'm in a tower. I'm low when I'm lying on the ground. Maybe I'm never really in the middle?

Day Sixteen - Mainstream Music

Hey Blogging World

I thought I would make it nice and colourful to show I am in a pretty happy mood. Well not really, more like I have been moody today. The bright colours represent my happiness and the dark colours represent my bored, annoyed, upset moods. But enough about life as a teen, onto the post prompt today!

Day 16: Your view on mainstream music.

Hmmm...

Well this is a tough one. I'm not the biggest mainstream music fan. I have never been one to go with the crowd anyway so listening to that typical music of the 'duf duf'' or the three same words in the one song. But may I say that even though I don't necessarily like a lot of the songs, I do respect them still. Because of the new technology we have people are able to advance in music as well. It takes a lot of times to produce songs that have intricate beats in term of the equipment they use. I also do know that a lot of people like that music, making it mainstream, so I try not to judge them because everyone is allowed to have their own music taste.

I do that and surround yourself with a range of music that you like. I think that's the whole reason why they have different music styles so people can pick and choose and find different music that they like. It would be weird to just choose one style and say, "Okay this is the style I like and I don't like any other style." You would limit yourself so much!

Also, if everyone loved mainstream music, or everyone just loved rock music, then there wouldn't be any diversity in music which is what makes it so great! Music is like religion and different countries, well for me it's that because it's the way I want the world to be. Everyone should be able to like their own music, follow their own religion or belong to different countries, but we should all be able to come together and celebrate our differences and share them with one another. The thing I love the most is meeting someone with a different music taste to me and I just raid their iPod and they tell me all these songs to look up and I just fall in love with a whole different style of music. That's what makes it so wonderful.

Halfway Through

Hey Blogging World

It's the halfway point and may I say, I am just happy that I have gotten this far. After those days that I had missed, I could have easily given up. But I am quite proud that I didn't and I caught up to them. Although my friends did find it a bit funny that my blog had taken priority over my homework. Meh, there will always be another maths test.

Day 15: Your favourite Tumblrs. 

And just when I thought that I was going well in this challenge...

See the problem that I have with this prompt is the fact that I don't have Tumblr. I don't know much about it other than that it is like a sharing site for photos and quotes, maybe blog posts as well? Therefore I can't really say my favourite Tumblrs as I don't even know many people that have it. I do know that most of the youtubers I spend half my time watching have Tumblr so if I did have it or took any interest in it, they would probably be my favourites.

At least I know what the logo looks like.
So there you have it, I know this is a short post but besides blogging I really don't have many other ways to connect with the world. I don't even have Facebook! Apparently I'm not old enough... Not that I am wanting it that much anyway.
