Life of a Blogger: Collections

Collections

I used to collect pokemon and yugioh cards. I have a small movie collection of movies I like. I don't much collecting because of money. I recently started my book and bookmark/swag collection. nothing specific but I also like collecting cute things, sometimes jwelery, clothes, beanie babies, stickers, other little things or something weird too that I wouldn't normally see. I still have my barbie doll collection from when I was little. I can't get rid of them because they mean so much to me.

EDIT

I love Bratz Dolls. I also have Barbie but they are in the box and I took this picture a long time ago.

Bookmark/Swag

What do you collect or used to collect?

Life of a Blogger: Embarrassing Things

Hosted by Novel Heartbeat

Embarrassing Things

• I'am a shy person. In school I was the quiet girl. I hated presenting projects and reading out loud. I hated when I was told to speak louder, which was embarrassing. 

• When I met new people and I don't know what to say.

• I opened a can and cut my finger and I fainted in front of my parents because a lot of blood was coming out.

• I threw up in a train because I had cramps and the people was just looking at me like 'WTH is wrong with this girl?' and someone moved (not that I blame them.)

• Graduation when you have to walk down and do that stupid walk 'left foot forward, right foot forward, next to the left, then right foot forward, etc. I messed that up in a couple of graduations. And the singing, I don't sing so that is embarrassing when my parents were watching but no one heard me anyways. I'm glad we didn't sing for my High School Graduation.

• In Jr. High when my best friend (A) was mad at me for something that someone else said. Our other friend (B) who went to another school was telling her (A) on the phone that I was telling her (B) that I was going to beat her (A) up. Friend A believed her and at lunch when I went up to sit with her and she started telling everything while crying and then she left. I didn't know what to do. I was confused and felt stupid. My other friends got us together to talk one day. I don't remember much of what happened after that, it wasn't the same and then she stopped coming to school. I think she moved because she lived in the apartment next to me and I never seen her again. I think Friend B was jealous because we spent more time together and she might of felt left out.

Anyways, this is all I can remember but I'm sure I had a lot of embarrassing moments when I was younger. 

What are your Embarrassing things?

Life of a Blogger: Actors/Actresses

Hosted by Novel Heartbeat

Actor/Actresses

My type of favorite Actor/Actress are ones that catch my attention. Who can play a serious character in a movie and a funny one in another movie. I have more favorite actors then actresses because there are less of them and I don't see too many movies with female lead roles. I also have a problem with loving older guys who I will never get. :(

Favorite Actors

 Johnny Depp - Love him, He has played so many different characters and he does them all good (Favs: Pirates of the Caribbean, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Secret Window)

 Tom Hiddleston - Love him, his facial expressions is amazing and part of what makes him a great actor. He needs more movies. (Favs: Thor, The Avengers, Unrelated, Archipelago)

 Will Smith - I grew up watching him on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, still watch it. (Favs: Men in Black, Bads Boys, I, Robot, Hancock)

 Jim Carrey -  He makes me laugh. He made so many great funny movies but lately not so much. (Favs: The Mask, Me Myself & Irene, Yes Man, Grinch, Bruce Almighty, Ace Ventura)

Hugh Jackman, Mark Walhberg, Robert Downey. Jr, Denzel Washington, Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man. Daniel Raidcliffe (I really want to see Horns), Jamie Foxx, Dylan O' Brien etc....

there are a lot of actors I like/love but there is sooooo many to name and I can't remember at the moment. I also have favorite japanese actors but no one wants to know about that. Right?

AlSO EVERY BRITISH ACTOR :) (JK, maybe)

Favorite Actress 

 Jennifer Lawrence - I first seen her in X-Men: First Class and then The Hunger Games. I had no idea she was the same person. (Favs: The Hunger Games) I really need to see her other movies.

 Zoe Saldana  - Not many movies I seen of her but enough to know she's a good maybe great actress. (Favs: Colombiana, Center Stage) I would say Avatar but I didn't really like the movie. 

 Chloë Grace Moretz - she is going to be BIG. she's a great actress and she's was in so many book-to-movie films and is going to be in more. (Favs: Kick-Ass (2), Let me in, Carrie)

Helena Bonham Carter - she's not really my favorite but in the movies I seen with her in I liked and its always with Johnny depp. (Favs: Harry Potter, Alice in Wonderland)

Keira Knightley - I liked her in Pirates of the Caribbean, she needs to come back in a great movie.  

Sandra Bullock - Not many movies I seen with her but she is a great actress (Favs: Miss Congeniality, Speed, The Heat) 

Anna Hathaway - she needs more various roles (Favs: The Princess Diaries, Ella Enchanted)

Cameron Diaz, Drew Berrymore, and Lucy Lu: in Charlie's Angels and Charlie's Angel: Full Throttle, but I don't mind watching them in other movies too. 

These are all the actresses that I can think of. The only one I love is Jennifer Lawrence because she is a great person, actress and is funny.

Who is your favorite Actor/Actresses?

Turkey

Potatoes

Beef Stew

Rice

Corn Beef

Mac & Cheese

Hot Dogs

Burgers

Pizza

Funk Food

Chocolate

I can cook chicken, turkey, fish, pork chops (well, they all have the same ingredients so its not hard to forget) mashed potatoes, potato salad, mac & cheese. One time I made baked mac & cheese from the oven and it was good. All I remember was using milk, noodles, and I think a pack of shredded cheese. I make fries where I have to cut the potatoes and put them in the oil.

I made these cookies a couple of times. You have to buy the Betty Crocker mix and a bag of Hersey kisses. They are so good. I also make cake, brownies, corn muffin. To make these you will need eggs, water, oil. 

Food I want to learn to make

Beef stew

Meat

Rice (I made rice once and it came out alright)

etc...

Favorite Fast Food Restaurant

McDonald's

KFC (I love there mashed potatoes)

Taco Bell

Chinese Store (I love going to the chinese place where I live, I either get Fries and Chicken Wings or Fries and Baby Fried Shrimp)

Dunkin Donuts (bagels or chocolate donuts with sprinkles)

Favorite Fruit

Hate

I don't drink soda. I don't like Baked Ziti but I if someone makes it and I have nothing else to eat I will eat it which happened a couple of times already. Vegetables (except Carrots if they are in the beef stew)

What is your favorite food? Can you cook?

Life of a Blogger: Animals & Handwriting

Hosted by Novel Heartbeat

Last weeks topic: Animals

I love animals. I wished I lived on a farm and had as many animals as I could. When I was younger I always wanted a horse.

They are so beautiful

I also love foxes. I wish they were pets.

For Pets, I had fish, cats (one cat was an alley cat that my mom found in the street and she took it to our apartment. It would climb in and out the window. My mom taught the cat left but it came back. It's been years and we don't live in that apartment anymore but I was told that the cat still lives there.), hamsters, a rabbit, baby turtles and now I have a dog. I never taught I would own a dog and to this day I still can't believe it.

Anyways, I love animals. I would rather work with animals then people.

This weeks topic: Handwriting

Here is my handwriting. I write with my left hand. It can be somewhat neat and sloppy. 

The more I write my hand gets tired and I'm in a rush, it gets like the picture on the bottom.

I don't know how to write in Script. :(

Life of a Blogger: Travel

Life of a Blogger: Camping

Hosted by Novel Heartbeat

Sad to say I have never been camping. But I hope to go one day. I love to have that experience and pitch a tent, make fire, make smores, & sleep outside in a sleeping bag.

I really want to watch the stars at night. Its so Beautiful.

I would also like to explore and find a beautiful spot like this. 

I would take so much pictures.

Life of a Blogger: Guilty Pleasures

Hosted by Novel Heartbeat

I know I'm late but I still want to do it. I don't think I feel guilty enjoying these things but if my family found out I will be embarrassed by some of them.

• This all have to do with my love for japan. Reading manga, watching anime and jdramas, and Listening to jrock/jpop. I don't understand what they are saying but I love the beat, tune, voice, etc. One of my favorite bands is The Gazette. I read/watch Naruto and Bleach. I don't keep track of the jdramas I watched but the first one I ever watched and love is Gokusen.

Naruto

Gokusen

• Reading Fanfiction
• Shipping. I love shipping characters for fun. Like Destiel from Supernatural. Sterek from Teenwolf. Which leads to reading fanfiction.
• Buying Books - Its not bad. I started buying books last year I mostly bought used books for low around $1-$3.
• Buying Shirts - I love shirts, when summer comes the stores start putting out the cute thin shirts, I see so many different shirts with designs I like and I just want to buy them all. Like these shirts I own:

I love skulls

I love floral designs too, but I mostly end up getting shirts that are different and black or red which are my favorite colors.

• Buying things in General is a BIG GUILTY PLEASURE for me.
• Staying up all night. This is something I always feel guilty about in the mornings when I'm so sleepy. I tell myself I'm not going to stay up again but then I do.
• Doing Kid things. I still love to go to the zoo. I love to go to the kids section and look at the toys. I still own my barbie/bratz dolls. I find it hard to give them away. Back in 2012 I got a bratz doll on sale because I liked the outfit and just wanted it. 
• TEEN WOLF. I just started watching it in Janurary and I can't get enough of it. 
• Dylan O' Brien. Because of Teen Wolf. Because he funny, talented, and cute.

This is all I can think of. And I sound weird, so I'm going to stop.

Leave a Comment, What are your Guilty Pleasures?

Life of a Blogger: Introvert or Extrovert?

I don't know much about Extrovert or Introvert but I did see it around the Internet. I never really bothered to look into what they mean.

Extrovert: a person who’s interest is more in his environment and in other people than in himself; a person who is active and expressive.

• They need friends and make them more readily than introverts
• They tend to seek out careers that allow them to interact frequently with others
• They make their presence known more obviously than introverts in group situations
• They tend to be expansive in their body movements, gesture often, and dress colorfully than introverts
• They tend to travel farther and move more often than introverts
• They display less incline to suffer from migraines, ulcers, colitis, and certain types of heart diseases than are introverts
• Most extroverts prefer to work late at night as opposed to early in the morning

Introvert: a shy person. a person characterized by concern with his own thoughts and feelings.

• They prefer to be alone or in small groups and do not need or want many friends
• They tend to seek out careers where they do not have to meet and greet in public
• They do not seek attention in group situations
• They tend to inhibit and restrict their body movements and gestures and to dress in a subdued (restrained, soften, controlled) fashion
• They tend to limit their traveling and stay in one place for longer periods
• They display greater fears and apprehensions (suspicion) than extroverts
• They are inclined to suffer from internalizing their feelings by getting anxiety-related diseases such as migraines, ulcers, colitis, and certain heart disease
• Most introverts prefer to work early in the morning as opposed to late at night

SOURCE: "Handwriting Analysis; Putting It To Work For" By Andrea McNicole

I am a Introvert. I am a shy person, have been all my life. When I was in school, I was quiet. I didn't like to work in groups. I was also/still am that person who would ignore calls. If I meet new people, I don't what to say, I wouldn't know how to start a conversation or keep the conversation going. It just makes me awkward and uncomfortable. The only time I'm loud is when I'm at home with my family. If I don't like something I will say something. Just because I'm quiet, doesn't mean I got nothing to say. 

I am that person who would rather read a book then go to a club. I like to go out to places like the museum, zoo, park, mall, movie theater. I don't know if this is Introvert or just mean but sometimes people get on my nerves and I think they are stupid. Some people do stupid things and that is what I mostly see in this world. I get annoyed quickly but I do have a sense of humor. I would rather work with animals then people. 

I think the only time I am an Extrovert is when I'm with my mother or brother but after awhile I like to get away from them too.

Life of a Blogger: If You Could Live Anywhere?

Life of a Blogger is Hosted by Novel Heartbeat

If I could live anywhere, it would be Japan. I love that country even though I haven't been there. I love the culture, language, shows (anime,manga,jdrama), people, fashion, food etc. To me its a Beautiful place. Not just Tokyo but also the other places that no one really hears about and the other little things.

I love the sliding doors

The one thing I wouldn't like is the earthquakes but thats something you can't control and I noticed that they are prepared for when it happens. 

Here are awesome blogs I follow on tumblr. They have a lot of lovely pictures they post of japan.

Japan will always be my number 1 place to live but I would also like to live in London or Paris.

Where would you live?
