Beauty Tips from Audrey Hepburn

"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode, but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows.
The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.
If you share this with another woman, something good will happen -- you will boost another woman's self esteem, and she will know that you care about her. "
Audrey Hepburn, Actress.

NIGHTMARES!!! :)

I LOVE NIGHTMARES! Call me crazy, but I love them. I love waking up in a cold sweat worried about what was to become of me, and then realizing I'm okay. I will then try to go back to sleep and resume that dream, but I can't because it's no longer scary. Then I'm sad.

I love waking up ready to run with adrenaline pumping through my body only to realize I'm in my freezing bedroom alright. I love seeing how my subconscious mind reacts to certain situations. I love it when my body hits the bed like I've been falling. It's a weird sensation.

A couple nights ago I had a nightmare.

I had was in a white rundown trailer. It was about 8 feet wide, and about standard length. Outside there was a well and a storage shed with a hideout, since we lived in Kansas, we needed a hideaway spot in case there was a tornado. I was staying with CC's family. There was Uncle Doug, Aunt Kathy, Richard, Becky was visiting, Robert, CC, and a little girl that wasn't Cammy but was the same age.

Well, we heard on the radio that there was a tornado warning for our area. Uncle Doug said not to worry about it because there wouldn't be one. I looked outside and there was one less than a mile away!

I told everyone that we needed to go to the well or to the shelter but they said no. So, too afraid to go by myself, I stayed in an unstable house with tons of windows.

I then proceeded to tell everyone we needed to shut and lock the windows. I did all that and then Robert and Aunt Kathy said "No way" and started to open the windows again. At this point I was frantically trying to prepare for the tornado that was almost to us. I hurried and shut the windows with CC and ran to a corner in the room. Then the tornado got to us.

It tipped the trailer to one side then returned us back down and went on. But we knew it would circle back. As CC and I sat huddled we had a feeling to run to the other part of the house so we did, and right where we were the tornado took that chunk of the house. We were humbled. Then some events happened that I'm not quite sure of. Then we walked outside, it was over with. There were trees magically planted around the house that had supposedly saved the house.

When I woke up this morning, I had a MASSIVE headache. That's one downside to getting my thrill for the night. So I had to drink lots of water and take an Ibuprofen, while dealing with a hammer hitting my head for about two hours.

That probably made no sense to you at all, nor seem like a nightmare but CC is sure it was one, and it gave me the chills and a headache so it must have been. I have dreams about tornadoes a lot. Anyone know what that means?

Anyways I guess this is enough ramblings for today!!

Today....

Today I discovered that a lot of my Idaho friends have blogs! It made me happy. Granted, they haven't posted for weeks some of them months and some only once, but they are there and I will make them start blogging more! Just kidding. But it made me feel less weird I guess about having one myself.
Today I am in a laughy mood. I am laughing at everything. I saw some pictures of my Idaho Trip 2007 and we were all so young. I also saw people in pictures that I had met before and not even realized. It was hilarious. I was laughing out loud, my family must think I am crazy. I'm afraid if I see anybody today they may think I'm crazy. I would laugh at everything and probably roll on the floor.
Today I am missing my friends from Idaho. I miss (in no particular order) CC, Robert, Cammy, Richard, Lexi, Amanda, Taylor, Timothy, Adrian, Sarah, Becky, Kathryn, Brynn, Nicole, Elonna, Eliza, Bryan, Sheldon, Garet, Bret, Brianna, Madi, Hannah, Duke, Joseph, Blake, I'm missing someone and I'm sorry. They all aren't my friends, but they are people who I wish I could've created friendships with and I didn't, so therefore I'm missing them. It was fun creating friendships with most of CC's friends. Now the hardest part is not seeing them. I want to hang out with them or at least see them randomly but with being 12 hours apart, things are a little difficult.
Today, I'm thinking about school. I want to go to Idaho for school this year of course, but also I want to take some of the classes I need to here and I want to be challenged for once with my honors classes starting too. I dont know. I guess whatever happens, will happen for a reason. School is starting soon and I'm also thinking about school clothes and supplies. What I want to start off with and such. It's also fun thinking about it with no money!
Today, I am relaxing. I didn't put my contacts in, I didn't put makeup on, I threw my hair in a pony tail, and I am happy.
Today, is just another day.

I'm Back

After three weeks and a day in the most amazing setting I am sadly back. I could tell you a lot about it, and I have written a post about everything I did each day, but I'm not sure I want to share all of it. If you are close to me you will probably hear about it.
I'm at a loss for what to write at the moment. It was the best thing I have done and I can't help but to keep my head in Idaho. I want to go back and be with my other half. I want to go back to all of my new friends who so kindly let me into their group. I want to go back to the nice weather and the five mile walks I went on. I want to go back to the events we got so abundantly invited to. I want to go back to having a sister who let me wear her clothes. I want to go back to having siblings my age and a brother I was able to talk to. I want to go back to a younger sister who understands makeup and clothes and wants advice, but is also young at heart. I want to go back and be able to be myself where there are no past judgements about me and I can just be myself without worrying about what people are thinking about me from what they've heard.
I think I'll stop there or I may torture myself..
