Challenge Day 3: If You Could Only Have One Wish, What Would You Wish For?

'If I had one wish oh I don't know what I'd wish for, but if I had a million zillion wishees, I'd choose one to let you know that gibberish is not a nice way to talk to all your friends!' - Gibberish by Relient K


The truth is, I'm not much of a wisher.

buuut theoretically speaking, here goes -

I'm gonna forget long-term wishes for now, because I have several hundred thousand of those.

The wish I would make right now at this very moment is that Japan would be ok and all the other places that might be affected.

It's all ok wishing for a lifetimes supply of chocolate or unlimited money, but the fact is there are bigger things going on. Things that can't be ignored.

And to be honest aren't wishes there so you can ask for the impossible?

I mean, I could wish to be able to see my friends from all over the world, but I know I will make that happen anyway, so I certainly don't need a wish for that.

Sometimes I don't think people realise how much they are actually capable of. If you stand from a different view point and look at yourself you'll probably see a 'you' that you never even imagined you could be.

With or without wishes, you are freaking amazing, a work of art and you share this whole world with billions of other amazing people. Don't let anyone tell you any different AND if they do contradict what I just said, tell me and I will kick them out of the 'Amazing People Club'.

No, I'm just kidding. Even wally annoying people are hugely capable of being amazing - only a lot of the time they choose not to be - that is their biggest problem.

At the end of the day I always pray anyway, I find that works for me better than any one wish.

For example, I knew my Mico dongsaeng was struggling with his thesis days before it was to be handed in. So I wrote on my prayer list (which I write every night) a few days ago for 'Mico's thesis to pass everything and that he would keep strong and FIGHTING!' because he'd had to review it a million times. And today I was so happy cos he was spazzing out how it was all over and handed in and lovely and wonderful.

Isn't that cool? My triplets are so lush you know. They can do anything and get through anything!!!! I know amazing people! *happy*

Anyway, I've kind of got side tracked, but my point is, prayers work for me more than wishes, because I really believe there is Someone out there ready to help us when we ask.

It doesn't hurt to try ;)

And now...this

Look! A Rainbow!

Lord I'm shattered!

I've heard from a reliable source that we are having curry for dinner tonight. This makes my heart swell with joy!

If curry could be my staple diet, I would totally go for it.

I finished tidying my room today. It looks kind of glorious now, I'm so pleased. I took pictures, but my cam's batteries ran out of power so I've put them on charge for now. It takes me so long to write blogs anyway, by the time I'm ready to post this the batteries will be charged to their utmost.

Oh yes, for all you VIP's who read my blog, bigbangvip.net are doing a donation operation to send to help the people of Japan. It would be great if you are able to spare some money for those in need. Even if you aren't a fan of Big Bang or k-pop sign up to the forum so you can help with the cause! I can assure you everyone there is lovely and friendly and maybe you'll even come to appreciate Big Bang :D

No pressure though, this is just my shoutout to let you know you can help. Even if you can't give money. Keep praying and being positive. Kindness comes in a multitude of forms :)

Today I finally got the green eyeshadow pallet I was coveting. It's pretty darn lush. Can't wait to use it :D I'll probably give it a test drive this coming Sunday. I would try it sooner, but I really don't like wearing makeup during the week - the reason being, I can't be bothered taking it off at night. Yes, I am that lazy.

I also bought some eyelash dye LMAO. It just sat on the shelf and called to me. Because I have a light complexion and hair colour my eyes look bald when I don't wear mascara so I thought,

'Ooooo, if I dye my eyelashes I won't even need to put mascara on when I go to the shops and stuff like that.'


It is a lazy reason, but Imma try it out. Apparently I have to test the solution on myself to see if I have an allergic reaction to it....maybe I will do that now since I've got nothing else to do.

brb

Well I have this brown circle on my inner elbow, but I don't feel allergic at all. Apparently I have to wait 48 hours though so we shall see.

I was eating dinner just earlier and me and Sarah we messing about and dad said,

'Stop being like girls.'


Sarah and I were just,

'.....we are girls.'


Ugh I hate bad language, it's not even funny. Every time I hear it my soul cringes with disgust. When I'm watching football and I see one of the players say a nasty word I shout,

'DON'T SAY THAT YOU DIRTY MAN.'


and he just stops and continues to play. IM LIKE A GOD!

No but really, it's so unattractive. Makes me want to punch people in the mouth. Like some people can't help it and it just rolls out of their mouths because they are used to talking like a tard, but others who say bad words on purpose to try and be funny - well, I think they are idiots. I hate people who make me mentally judge them, because I hate myself for judging people.

But if they will keep insisting to use the words of ignorance what can I do?



I've wanted to use that gif on my blog for ages.

I think the main reason I dislike people swearing is not the actual word itself, but the fact that it takes me like an hour to process the fact that someone is actually ugly enough on the inside to use that word in my presence and then it takes me another hour to forgive them depending on my mood and how good looking they are (I was just kidding with the last part). So you see I feel that people who use foul language just waste lots of my time when I could be using that time to be creative and draw pictures of hot Asian men and stuff (again, I was kidding...a bit).

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! Manchester United have now qualified for the quarter finals of the Champions League! HURRAY FOR THE REDS! GO GET THAT TROPHY FROM THOSE EUROPEANS!

Lol, earlier I was on tumblr and there was this post that said something like, 'The song you are listening to now is what you will hear when you make love to your celebrity crush for the first time.'

So I listened out and all I could hear was the commentary of the Man U v Marseille match.

I was like -.- ORLY?!

It's only ten and I feel so incredibly worn out. It's going to be insane when I have steady work. I'm going to come home and just sleep in my free time.

Though, usually, people's bodies adapt to their lifestyles.

You know what? I'm just going to make myself a brew (tea) get my PJ's on, read my Bible in bed for a bit and then go to sleep. OMG IT WILL BE PURE BLISS!

but first, as promised.

MY LOVELY TIDY SHELVES



I probably should have done before and after shots, then you would understand why I feel so accomplished with the orderliness of these shelves.

Some closeups :D

As you can see, there are 'books behind the books.' *goes all inception*



All those VCR's will have to go one day LMAO and finally my art stuff has a home so it's no longer scattered all over the house. HURRAY!



MY NEW GREEN PALLET! Isn't it beautiful???






Then this is my 'bedside table/chest of drawers' no longer tea stained and dusty and I chucked a load of crap that I'd kept on there.




Then these are the shelves above my bed, which hold a few of my favourite things and books :) It's a shame the picture is so blurred. My all time most favourite book (other than The Bible) is the big thick one on the top shelf second on the left. It's called 'The Count of Monte Christo by Alexandre Dumas' :D Though all the books there are exceptionally wonderful.



And of course, my prized collection of DVD's and Big Bang merchandise.




I have no idea why Shinee are sat on the top there XDD but to be fair, that is a most excellent mini album from them. My sis has a tonnage of 2pm merch too, but she likes to hoard it away in a draw, whereas I like to make an arrangement out of my stuff so I can admire it every day.

So you see, I have worked very hard to make my room and collections neat. I think I deserve a Luke picture!



He's so beautiful! His favourite actor is Michael Caine too. I mean...HNNNG!

I was in the library today and I went to the manga part and One Piece was there and I almost threw up with happiness. I started reading one while mum was doing some research and had to contain my laughter, because libraries tend to be silent places. It's just too hilarious though, makes me deeply happy.

Ok I am off to beds now!

Love you lots n lots n lots!

From Minnie

P.S. Disclaimer, the gif and picture of Luke Pasqualino were not made by me I just stole them off tumblr because of the gorgeousness.

P.S.S. Disclaimers are so ugly.

P.S.S.S. I found a poem I wrote a while back for a competition, it was nice, but I cbb getting out of bed to get it so I can write it here...maybe another day yeh?

LOOOOOOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Trying to Dwell on Loveliness

note: I was supposed to post this last night, but my net connection was being bum faced, so here it is now *huggg*

AKKKKKK!

Wow, if you say AKKK out loud you sound like an angry sea bird or something!

Did you know that there is a sea bird called a Booby? It has blue feet.

I woke up today with so many good intentions....well actually I was having this weird morning dream FOR AGES! You know the dreams you have just before you wake up?

Well, it wasn't weird, because I enjoyed it really! It was pretty much One Piece, but with me and people in my life and dream people. Then what happened was, this huge green sea serpent (and I MEAN HUGE) was trying to stop us from rescuing the princess who lived in like these smurf houses I dunno, but yeah, I was on the serpents head and it started whooshing up vertically and heading towards outer space and then Luffy was climbing up the its neck and it was such a big adventure! I wish I could remember more, but it's kind of all gobbledygook in my head and all I can recall really is lots of colours.

I want another One Piece dream tonight or at least an Avatar dream. I'm sure I'm not the only person in the world who dreams in cartoon.

OH yes! So I had all these good intentions when I ROSE this morning. I quickly got dressed and checked my left leg and YES I HAVE A BRUISE....what a surprise.

And I took Sam out and you know what? It's a beautiful March day. I'm deeply hoping that the weather warms up for when convention is on. I want it to be GLORIOUS!

I had made plans in my head to RE INVENT my entire room and make it into a sort of studio where I could do my art in peace and harmony (I usually do it on the kitchen table and I'm telling you now, that location is not harmonic at ALL).

BUT then my motivation was removed from me when people started to presume I had no plans and dumped all the boring stuff they don't want to do onto me - which makes me incredibly FOUL.

I think I AM part of the problem though, because I NEVER reveal my plans to anyone. I'm really secretive and weird - which make people think I don't have plans and that I have a mushroom-like brain, but actually I have LOTS of dreams and ambitions. So many I JUST DONT KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN!

but I really don't appreciate being dumped on...and yes, there is a difference between asking for help and dumping on someone. A difference between helping someone and being taken advantage of.

ITS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY!

------

Well, it's such a beautiful night now! (sort of)

I spent the whole evening going over my room with a fine toothcomb - it's sort of tidy now, but not really. There is still a lot more for me to do.

BUT all my books are neat and orderly and look lush - it took a while...the only thing I have more than dvd's is books. I could easily use my books as a library. Me and my friend were talking the other week about how we would love to have that library from Beauty and the Beast.

Sarah butted into the conversation and said,

'I'll come if there is a manga section.'


4 straight hours of cleaning takes it out of me though - I'm not used to this kind of thing - cleaning I mean. It doesn't come natural to me.

I will post pictures when I've finished everything. I've got an idea of how I can decorate after everything is neat. My walls are so bare. I do have some G Dragon posters, but they are HUGE and I really don't want to spoil them with bluetac. If I did put them up, I would frame them, but I'd have to find a massive frame somewhere.

Mum seems to think I'm too old to have posters of 'men' on my wall or whatever. She was commenting on how it was weird that I had a picture of G Dragon as my laptop wallpaper at the age of 22.

TBH it hadn't really crossed my mind that I was 'too old' to be obsessive. I've been obsessive about things my entire life. I'm famous for it. When I get into stuff I go the whole haul. And EVERY TIME my mum gives me a lecture on how I should concentrate on more important things....I actually do all the important stuff too, but I don't shove it in peoples faces. You should have seen me when I first got into Star Wars - crazy fangirl would be an understatement.

I just shrugged at my mum anyway. I'm 22, not dead. And I am definitely not going to be ashamed about what I like. I've never cared of what other people thought about my habits and I'm not going to start now. Especially when there is nothing wrong with what I like.

I have a feeling this isn't the last though. Even when I am married with 10 children my mum will lecture me.

'Michelle you are too obsessed with your kids! You need to concentrate on the more important things!'


and I'm not even kidding, I wouldn't be at all surprised if she actually said those exact words in my future.

Mums are crazy man.

I wonder how long it will take for me to go loco?

I think it's probably a vicious cycle. Each mother drives her daughter insane so by the time it's her turn to be a mother she is mentally ready to torture her own children.

It's quite evil and perverse actually. I don't even know if I want to carry on such a horrendous thing.

You can probably tell my patience has been VERY tested tonight. Honestly, earlier I was greatly peeved.

To feel better I look at the book shelf above my head and my heart feels light. I placed all my favourite novels and a few other things on the two shelves I have above my bed and it's so lovely. You know I have very good taste in stuff.

It's all these years of being obsessive. I've gathered a huge variety of interests. It's nice to be interested in lots of different things than just one, don't you agree?

I wonder if there will ever be anyone, who will be able to love me for me (including all my strange habits).

Well I know God does cos he made me like this! :D :D He must have a weird sense of humour!

Right! I'm going to shut down my lappy for the night now and snuggle down nicely. My mum told me earlier that in my life I would end up crying and saying,

'Why does nobody like me?'


It wasn't very nice of her to say that so I am going to read and get something nice in my head before I sleep.

I want another Luffy dream please

Night Night Everyone!

Love Minnie

Pray for Japan

Today is a sombre one. It's hard to think about ones self all the time when you know that millions of people are suffering. My deepest condolences and earnest prayers go out to and for the people and families in Japan who have been devastated by the earthquake and tsunami. May a spirit of hope and renewal come from such an awful experience and for those in need to be saved swiftly.

For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.

Job 14:7
