I wants a hug :/

Day thirty four:
A picture of your favorite memory.

I don't like this one because I feel like I have so many 'favorite memory' pictures. I chose the day I met my brother because it's a more recent one and there's some outstandingly funny pictures from that day. That being said, I wish I knew how to create a .gif of these pictures, because it would just be one of the funniest things.

(I have no idea what either me OR my mom is doing.)

The Bunker missions team will be home day after tomorrow, and I could not be more thankful if I tried. They are all (currently) alive, and safe, and looking forward to returning. And although I've thrived on my own these last two weeks, I will be very grateful to have Tom a fifteen minute walk away from me again.

Goodnight all <3

This was a very difficult post.

Day thirty:
A picture of someone you miss.

I actually had a whole list of people to choose from but in the end, the person I miss the most is someone who doesn't exist anymore.

I want to go back in time; not to regain what I've lost but to erase it completely. You can't miss something you never had, especially if all you never had was just an idea.

We had absolutely no alcohol in us.

Day twenty nine:
A picture that can always make you smile.

From Mel and Heather's grad ... such a fun evening. I have no recollection of what we were doing for this picture. I recall some form of insect infestation during these pictures buuuut. Maybe I was overtired.

I'm a day late on this one ...

... but I can explain why. I thought I had timed this all out so that I could get this first picture taken in time for Day twenty seven, but I apparently can't count properly. So I'm going to post twice in this entry. Here we go.

A picture of yourself and a family member.

This is my biological brother, Cam, and myself. We met today, for the first time, and it was life-changing. I'm so thankful he felt the desire to contact us, and so blessed to have met him today.

Day twenty eight:
A picture of something you're afraid of.

Entonophobia is the irrational fear of wood ticks. I hyperventilate. Don't ask me why, they just ... really, really bother me.

I kind of wish it was tomorrow already.

Day twenty six:
A picture of something that means a lot to you.

I love my iPod. It's been through a lot with me, and if it could talk, it would tell some pretty sweet stories. I've had it for six years and it's really a great little machine.

I really need a hug today. Does anyone have one to spare?

I'VE MADE IT 25% OF THE WAY THROUGH!!

Day twenty five:
A picture of you last year, and now; how have you changed since then?

Last year:


Now:

I have changed infinitely since this picture. I barely even recognize my old self, emotionally and spiritually, at least. Physically, I'm very much the same. Same build, same style, same hair. But inside? I'm less dependant on others for my confidence. I'm stronger, and more resiliant. I'm less irritable, I'm more positive, and I stress about things less. I'm content, I'm happy. I enjoy life, even though life is very difficult for me right now. I've rarely been as satisfied with my place in life as I am right now; I feel as if I am precisely where God wishes me to be.

Real life updates now though! I just got off Skype with Tom, and so far, everyone's doing well. They're all having a great time, experiencing tons of new things, and eating some seriously awesome food by the sounds of it. They've seen a lot of rain, but that's keeping the temperature down and helping them get accustomed to the climate a little easier. So that's a blessing!

Aside from that, work is tough, but I'm managing. I'm just sort of done with working two jobs, and I suppose it's wearing on me.

On Wednesday, I get to meet my brother. It feels like I've been waiting for this day my whole life, I'm so incredibly excited.

Also, next Sunday is the Skillet concert (I AM SO PUMPED). Saw Transformers 3 yesterday and it was great. I'll have to see it again with Tom when he gets back, because I was verrrrry tired and didn't quite keep up at the end. But I'll try harder next time.

I'm out. Later all you pretty people :)

Stay with me here now, and never surrender

All come, all fall; All walk with hearts so torn

Day twenty four:
Something you crave a lot.

A carefree, sunny day in the park with Tom. Nowhere to go, no one who needs us to be anywhere. Just ... hanging out. Being us. We get so few days like that; it seems as if there's always some demand on one or both of our days. It was nice this particular day to just be ourselves and enjoy the world without worrying about who's watching or what else needs to be done.

Happy Canada Day!

Day twenty three:
A picture of you, and the top five things you like about guys.

1. Faith: The most attractive thing about a guy is when the only way I can find his heart is to be chasing after Jesus myself.
2. Eyes: The only eyes I've ever fallen in love with are eyes I can't stop staring into.
3. Sense of humour: I love a guy that can make me laugh.
4. Arms/shoulders: Good shoulders and strong arms are my favorite place to fall asleep.
5. Playfulness: I need a guy who can be a kid with me.
