Sigh... Seems I can only be so good at keeping up with this for so long... Grrrr.
•Day 25- What I would find in your bag
Hmmm. My spiderman wallet, a comb, pens, pencils, a mirror, a sharpie, a little calender, and who knows what else. o.o
•Day 26- What you think about your friends
They're all absolutely amazing. If it weren't for my friends, I don't honestly know what I would do with myself. They keep me steady and keep me going. Every last one of them means something special to me, and none mean the same as the one before. They're everything.
•Day 27- Why are you doing this 30 day challenge
For the funsies!!! Also a slight attempt to force myself to keep up with not only my blog, but writing somewhat. As you can tell, it doesn't always work, but I am indeed trying.

Dear Mom and Dad
•Day 24- A letter to your parents
You've always been there for me, and always supported me, even when I chose to do some of the stupidest things ever. You may disapprove of my choices pretty often, but you just try to be a voice of reason and give me a different perspective other than my normal one, and even if you do disapprove of my choices you're always there to pick up my pieces and help me along the way. I know I never say it enough because I more or less come off emotionless, but you mean the world to me and I love you both very much. Thank you for everything.

Sucktastic
•Day 22- What makes you different from everyone else
Good question... Honest answer is, I just don't know. I could say it's my amazing good looks, my grand intelligence, my super gaming skills, etc. But the reality is, maybe I'm not that different than everyone else. I mean don't get me wrong, I'm sure I have certain qualities, skills, etc. that are different from other peoples', but I go through the same things as everyone else. Perhaps in a different manner yes, but I still go through the different phases of relationships, I went through all the schooling, and the working, and just the ups and downs of life. Not sure if that makes me a pessimist or a realist for seeing that. -shrugs- Who knows.
•Day 23- Something you crave for a lot
Mmmmm... hugs. Yeah, yeah. I know it sounds completely stupid, but hugs are amazing. Just to have that closeness with a friend, a family member, a significant other, and to feel completely safe and secure in those arms, it's amazing. So very comforting. Hugs can erase so much, and comfort, and make someone feel cared for. I crave em, what can I say.

Two Today, Two Tomorrow
Man I keep falling behind.... Grrrr. I'm so determined to keep going.
•Day 20- Someone you see yourself marrying/being with in the future
Heh, um well... I could say my current boyfriend, but you never know how the future goes. If I have nothing but friends around me, I could definitely be happy in the future. Having people around you who care about you and support you, now that's a happy future.
•Day 21- A picture of something that makes you happy
I absolutely LOVE dragons!! :D

Triple the Fun
•Day 17- Someone you would want to switch lives with for one day and why
Hmmm I think if I were to switch lives for a day with a person, I'd pick someone like Tara Lipinski (and I'm sure I butchered her last name). She's an amazing figure skater and I'd love to be able to do what she does on ice, let alone feel like I was able to do he things I used to on skates one last time. You'd think with the amount of time I talk about figure skating, that I'd try to pick it back up again, though I haven't quite yet. Maybe I will someday... Though I think when I do, I may try it on ice.
•Day 18- Plans/dreams/goals you have
In the near future my goal is to pay off all my credit cards, which is only 2 though they have high balances, and to really start saving money. I just want to be able to live debt free and comfortably. I plan to pick my writing back up, maybe see what I can do with this starter to a book I created a bit ago, and churn out some more poetry. Perhaps I'll try to finally get something published.
•Day 19- Nicknames you have; why do you have them
Holly-olly: Well when I was first getting inducted into National Junior Honor Society in Junior High, my friend Krystal screamed it out when they called my name, and it basically stuck with me through Junior High, High School, and then some.
Miss Amazing: Well that one seems pretty self explanatory, but either way it stuck and I ended up using it on a bunch of different things.
Meglan: I suppose it's not really a nickname, as much as my character's name, and while many people know my actual name, they choose to keep calling me that and it sticks enough I make multiple characters with the name.

To Whom It May Concern-
•Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you recently
Normally, I wouldn't care to do this... But in a way I feel like blowing off a little bit of steam, so I'm going to anyways. It honestly takes a bit to hurt me, only because I've learned to harden myself as much as possible, but boy you two managed to take the cake. It was so weird. I would go from talking to you both for hours on end, night after night, to barely talking to one, and the other literally ignoring me altogether. That hurt. I've never been dropped so completely like that. It was like I went from being "worth it" to absolutely "nothing." Not worth the time and effort to talk to, to even be friends with anymore. To think it was all over another person, for each. I think the person I knew of hurt the most, because I know how that person is, and to go from talking to just about nothing for that, felt absolutely ridiculous. It also hurt because I'm not the only one who can see the things that person does. So many other people see it, so many know it's not going to change. People are afraid to say it to you because they don't want you to blow up or anything, but man, they sure think about it and are willing to say it to other people. I'm sorry I couldn't be good enough to hold your attentions and be worthwhile enough to keep it. It doesn't matter now though. Sure it still hurts, but someone else is helping to ease the pain and resentment I feel right now. I wanted to hate you both at first, so much I did, but I couldn't and can't bring myself to do it. Maybe things will change and go back. Maybe they won't. Either way, I feel the need to harden myself even more to a certain degree. You obviously thought I wasn't worth the time, so you both obviously weren't worth mine.
Sincerely,
~Holly

Discovery
•Day 12- How you found out about Blogger and why you made one
I think I went over this in like the very first post I ever made. I always knew about blogger, though I hadn't used it before. I told myself I wouldn't be able to keep up with it, which time and time again I prove myself correct, but at least I keep picking it back up and doing my best to keep up with it. Anyways, the whole real reason I even started it was two good friends on IMVU, which I haven't managed to get on anytime recently, but I'm glad I've still kept in touch with one of them. If it hadn't been from them suggesting it multiple times and then even allowing me to read their blogs, I probably wouldn't have picked this up. Though honestly, I'm glad I did. Gives me something fun to try to keep up with and do something with.

I'm so good at this
•Day 08- Short term goals for this month and why
Be able to pay all my bills, save some money, and make this thing keep working.
•Day 09- Something you’re proud of in the past few days
Myself, as lame as that sounds, but it's true. I've gotten over a few humps and pulled myself back up and together when I honestly thought it wasn't even possible. I jumped into something I thought I'd never give a chance, let alone be happy with, and I'm doing all I can to have things be right for once... I'm not perfect, I sure know that, but I can at least try to be my best, and I will succeed at doing so.

Two in One
•Day 06- Favorite super hero and why
I pick... Spiderman, and honestly I don't really know why... But I do have a velcro wallet with him on it. :D
•Day 07- A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you
I know it says "has" but I'm going with "had," and for had, it would be Stephen. Being with him for three years changed me a ton. I did a lot of growing up thanks to him... But yeah...

After Work
•Day 04- A habit that you wish you didn’t have
I wish I didn't think too far into things/over think things in general. Depending on what it is, I can think so much on something to the point that I psyche myself into a breakdown or just completely shut down. It's rather obnoxious, and does nothing but add stress to worry. Blegh. Today has so been one of those days... I can hardly force myself to type this out.

Creativity at its Best
•Day 02- The meaning behind your Blogger name
If you're referring to the name to the right hand side of my blog page, then that is the name I like to often use as a pen name, or in general a created character that I am very fond of giving magic to and throwing her into strange and fantastical situations. If you are referring to my actual blogger url name, well I love to read and write, and sometimes it's said that "silver tongues" can create complete people, worlds, with their thoughts, emotions, and words. I know I am no true "silver tongue," but eventually maybe my written words will be enough to conjure images and worlds in the minds of my readers. What more could one want?
