day seven - light my fire!

Day 07 - Something that turns you on

haha this is a funny question. what turns me on about a guy...hmmm physically, a great smile and a pair of beautiful eyes its always lovely to see. i wouldn't say that i am particularly picky with the guys that i am attracted to but i guess we all have our preferences. i love blue eyes but that's more of a love than anything.

personality wise, i love confidence. there is nothing sexier than a guy who is confident in who he is, what he is saying, how he looks and what he is doing. confidence, not cockiness (which is key), is so attractive. along with confidence, i love a great sense of humour. cliche, i know, but i love a guy who can make me laugh but can also share the spotlight with me and laugh at my jokes. not only is humour a turn on, a sort of banter between each other is a turn on. for some reason, i love being able to make fun of and joke around with the guy i like. its how i am so dishing it just as much as he can take it is definitely a plus. intelligence accompanied with the ability to chill and laugh is also a turn on. i love when a guy has a brain especially when he knows how to have fun at the same time.

i guess turn offs can be discussed to. physically, i don't think there are any turn offs really... being attracted to someone just kind of happens. personality wise, i hate cockiness and short tempers. its also a big turn off when he doesn't listen to you talk, even if what you are saying isn't the most dramatic or crazy thing.

thats all!

I've got more wit a better kiss, a hotter touch a better fuck

Day 07 - Something that turns you on

Hahahaha, I don't even know how to answer this. I guess I could just say what qualities attract me to a guy. First, tallness. I love tall guys. Maybe because I'm like 5'6 and in heels I feel like a giant, but I always go for the taller guys. I also love when a guy has good hair, pretty eyes and a nice smile. Aside from looks, I love when a guy has an amazing sense of humour, that's something they must have. When a guy's super nice that's also a turn on, I like the nice boys lol. Now if they're into hockey and politics, I'm sold! Intelligence is a turn on for me, if they can have a real convo about let's say Canada's government, that's a good thing. A major turn off however is if they're a Conservative or right-wing haha. If they're NDP, we're good!

Below is a photo of a new bracelet I saw at a store that my mom bought me. It has one of my favourite quotes on it, "God grant me serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference." I love it. It has special meaning to me.

If you be my star, I'll be your sky

Hello Blog, so yesterday the silly blogger website wouldn't let me post. Therefore I am posting days 5 and 6 today!

Day 05 - Something that makes you smile
Many things make me smile:

- My friends and family
- When the Leafs win
- When the Canucks win
- When Team Canada wins (they lost today to Russia and were eliminated, boo!)
- Big Bang Theory
- New shoes (I got a new pair of brown wedge sandals today!)
- New clothes
- Parties
- Skiing and going in the half-pipe and landing jumps and rails!
- Going to the beach (can’t wait!)
- Birthdays and holidays
- When a good song comes on
- Nice weather (right now I want hot tanning weather!)
- Days out and adventures with friends!

Day 06 - Someone that makes you really happy
A few people make me really happy. Obviously my family (most of the time lol) and my friends, like Ray Charles who's been super helpful recently! Also, a few actors/singers/hockey players make me happy, such as Wellwood who has made it to round 3 of the playoffs and get to face his former team, the Canucks! Also Seth Green, David Suzuki, Jack Layton and Dallas Green are a few more.

I'm going to the movies tonight with Ray Charles and a few of our other friends to see Bridesmaids. It got 3 and a half out of four stars in a review I read in the paper today, and it looks like a women's version of the Hangover. I hope it's as good as I'm expecting it to be now!

ps. Gregory & the Hawk, amazing singer/band with great lyrics...they're like emotional stories in song form lol.

day four - moments

Day 04 - Four moments that changed your life

1) my parents splitting up and eventually getting divorced

probably most defining moments in my life actually. life went from a family of 5 to 4. life also changed from having a father to having no father. this moment, although really sad, it has made me who i am, the good and the bad. and although it sucks, i wouldn't change it

2) moving from one end of the city to the other

when i was thirteen, my mom decided to sell the house so we moved from one end of the city to the other. i was in grade 8 at the time and finished my year at the school i had gone to my entire life. i started grade 9 at a new high school where i met all the amazing friends i have from home today. not only was the move important because my father had no idea where we had moved but it was important way of healing from all the shit our family had gone through. by moving, everyone was happier and we were much safer. i went to an awesome high school that prepared me very well for university. it was at this school i met lorelie and snoogs and everyone else which are all very very important to me. beyond friends to i got to explore what subjects i love. it was in that school that i fell in love with history and sociology. i also found my love social justice

3) going to university

four years ago i ventured away from home for the first time. it was scary and yet really fun. i met some amazing people during my four years at school i met some of the most amazing people in my life. i learned a lot and of course had some fun. i also figured out what i want to do with my life and have so far figured out how to get there haha

4) changes in friendships

after first year, some stuff happned with my best friend from high school and continued to happen until the end of second year. the moment changed my life as i lost a friend (two really but the other was a dick anyways) and i was emotionally drained. lots of crap happened during that year. in turn, i became closer to many other people around me who i love

that is all

Only Four?

Day 04 - Four moments that changed your life

This is kind of a difficult one because I'm really not sure what four moments to choose. I'm going to choose moments that affected me in some profound or intense way, or somehow altered the direction of my life or how I feel. I'm suret there have been many more moments though.

1) Joining model UN club in 3rd year - I'm so glad I joined because I met some amazing people and now have great experience and two awards to add to my resume lol.

2) End of grade 12 - This was a crazy time in my life, amazing and sad.

3) Fall of grade 10 - I explained this in the post about God.

4) Losing one of my childhood best friends in November 2007.
