I'll keep this all to one entry so don't worry about being spammed every day with only a quick question :) If I miss a few days, and I'm sure it'll happen, I'll make sure to just answer all the ones I miss when I come back. I love New Years, even if it's super cliche, it's such an awesome marker to begin new things, if only I can keep momentum up!
Day 1: Hopes, dreams, and plans for the next 365 days with a picture of yourself?
I want to do better at uni, I want all Distinctions next semester, I know I can do it if I try. I'll be doing less Commerce so hopefully that'll mean I'm able to go better because I'll be having more fun and am more interested in what I am learning:)
I'd like to get a boyfriend this year, so I'd like to meet some new people, become more confident, go out more. Organise some interesting things with my friends, maybe go overseas for the first time if I can find someone who wants to travel with me.
Lose a bunch of weight, 15kgs would be good to start :) Even if it doesn't pan out the way I fantasise about, any progress is progress, and at this point I just want to make it until the end of the month without quitting!
Annnnnd here is my picture :) Along with my messy bed haha.
Day 2: Something that’s illegal but you think it should be legal?
Downloading music. I think artists should make their money through a) tours and b) advertisment and sponsorship. At the very least, popular music, I still agree with supporting struggling artists/artists who haven't 'made' it yet. Besides, everyone does it anyway, you can't stop people, so why try?
Day 3: What you think your reason for being here is?
Just to... fulfill myself, to make life better for the people around me? I don't believe in any real preconcieved destiny or meaning, just what I make of it. I think life is amazing, I think it's special and worth everything. I think it's spectacular and brilliant and I want to live it to the best of my ability, doing the things I love, feeling deeply, loving completely, living generously and well.
Day 4: How you think your life would change if you achieved your dream?
I'll talk about my fitness/weight loss dream because that's the biggest one that I work on daily, rather than the nearest/dearest to my heart which are just being happy and getting a good job and having a family and little kids and being a parent and having a husband who is lovely and getting to bang them all the time, which is all stuff I want but I don't have details for that. That's not so much a dream I 'achieve' as just my general life direction, fingers crossed and here's hoping.
So... if I achieve my weight loss dreams, and am now a size S or size 10, and I weigh 60kg and my tummy doesn't poke out at the bottom and I can walk into a clothes shop and look good in all the dresses, rather than in none, and can try different styles of clothes, and not feel embarrassed about even entering some shops because I feel like the skinny girls are laughing at me and the shop assistant is raising her eyebrow. I'd find it easy to find shorts that look nice and I could wear mid drift tops and shirts without cleavage because it wouldn't matter, I could look nice in other areas. I'd feel more confident and while it might not improve my conversation skills, I'd feel less insecure when talking to people, I'd wonder less if they liked me or what they saw in me- I know changing myself superficially wouldn't really make me a better person in any way, but I'd feel like people would have to stop judging me on how big I am and could pay attention to other things, even if it's still physical things, or beyond that, to what I'm saying.
I'd stop feeling restricted from doing things like going wild or flirting or believing that I was attractive enough for guys to be interested in me. I could put myself out there more and feel less like an out of place awkward penguin. Because the thing is, I like myself. I like how I'm nerdy and how I have an opinion on everything, no matter how little I know on the topic, because I respect the fact that I do know a lot about a lot of things. I like that I'm smart and capable and responsible and conscientious and a good friend and I may not be outgoing or a leader or funny but I think I'm worthwhile and special and people should like me but then sometimes I think, why would people want to be friends with someone who isn't pretty and who is big and flawed and binges on junk and is so scared of being judged?
And so I think, getting rid of that major insecurity would help me. I understand that physical changes can only be second to mental ones. I know that loving myself as I am is the only way that I am going to manage it when I'm thinner. But I don't worry too much because I do love myself, just not all of me, all the time.
Achieving this dream does mean a lot to me. I was going to say 'the world' but I know that I'd tried this before and it hasn't stuck, that I've given up and lost motivation and that sucks, because I know how much I want it, it's just so hard and it's just a daily thing, it's every meal, and added to that, thinking about exercise and what I can do, and what I should be doing and talking myself in and out of things. But every time I try, I learn something and do things and get a bit better and knowledgeable and further ahead. Not always weight wise, I'd stay I'm back at the start line there, but it's a journey and I get that and I got to get a lot of yummy food to get me back where I am so let's just say it happened and no regrets. I'm a better runner, I know so much more about food, I'm not being obsessive over calorie counting now, and apart from on this blog I'm not mentioning it to everyone, I'm just letting it be my thing.
Day 5: Something you would change about the world?
Equality ideally. Or just lack of discrimination. I want people to be able to be different, to have different cultures and ideas and bodies and skin colour and traditions and beliefs, but have equal opportunities given to them despite that.
I don't think it'll ever happen exactly, but I think we could be a lot closer than we are. As a world, the inequality is appalling, that parts of Africa and India and other third world countries where kids can't go to school and walk all day to get a few litres of water or food, and women are forced into marriages and raped and die giving birth, and men are working in dangerous conditions for a dollar a day, that those things are a reality while I get paid $300 for 20 hours work for my whole week, and can save most of it and still be totally comfortable and go out to dinner and go the movies and have a laptop and phone and... all of that, it's not fair.
But also all the first world countries inequalities, sexism, racism, ableism, cissexism, body shaming, looking down on people for accents, geography, haircut. I would change the way people judge each other for stupid things.
Day 6: Something you would like to change about yourself?
Damn, I was thinking about this all day and I had a good answer but I've forgotten it. My awkwardness I suppose, I'd like to lessen. The way I link my fingers in front of me, I've realised I do it all the time, whenever I feel uncomfortable or awkward (which is all the time). And while I've been trying to loosen up at work (one of the girls Cassie actually said something about my increase in snarking ability), rather than just keeping quiet. But I'm one of those people who agonises over what to say and when to say it and then I always pick wrong and I start speaking right when something happens or someone else starts speaking.
Day 7: A show or a movie that has changed you, and how?
Totally sucks to say, since I hate Glee so much, but Glee.
I remember watching the Pilot and thinking 'wow'. Those first 13 episodes were so right on the ball, and outrageous, and heartwarming and angsty, and you rooted for all the characters despite how crazy it all was. Plus you got music and everyone at least some people, has musical fantasies, where you get to sing songs about your feelings to whoever caused those feelings. At least I do, as soon as I put my ipod in, it's all 'who am I singing this to?' and 'what would be say?' and 'how would I perform it?', even though I lack singing and performance ability, it's a lovely fantasy.
But as far as changing my life goes, that's more to do with Brittana.
See, like most people, when it comes to relationships, I have a 'type'. Well, in TV shows, books and movies I do, in real life I don't usually go for what it is I actually like so my track record is weird. I ship all types of best friends, I just like the relationships that don't start in romance, I prefer similarity over opposites attract, I don't mind if they clash but generally, I like like-minded best friends who understand each other better than anyone else does.
Generally my OTP's aren't canon, because while I think this makes a perfect relationship, not that many people tend to agree with me. I'm a Harry/Hermione, Team Jacob etc. But see, Brittana was different and I don't know if I've thought of it this way before but while I like all my OTP's (they're my one true pairings- at least, one true pairing per show), Brittana is the otp to end otps, the ultimate. If I had to pick just one, I think it would be Brittana. I think I've worked out why and it's the fact that they're both girls.
The best friend relationship is my formula always, but I never identified with one as closely because I don't have a male best friend. Wish I did, I'd totally end up in love with them, but I never have. Brittana though, was something that I had so much head canon and back story for, without even thinking. I knew how best friends act and what they'd do together and talk about and how they'd spend summers and sure, they were hot cheerleaders and not too much like me personally, it didn't matter. I identified in the ways that mattered- subconsciously anyway. When it comes to my best friend, I'm fiercely protective, just like Santana is with Brittany and no one else. With everyone else, I feel like Brittany, and I follow other people's leads and like being the baby and feeling young and cared for and cuddled, and with this girl, I don't mind being the big spoon. Quite literally most of the time. With her, I always felt like I took on the more male role, helping her and giving her little flowers and calling her pretty and I don't know, lots of stuff.
To be clear, I'm just friends with this girls and I don't know what kind of feelings I harbour. She's different to everyone else and has been for years, but I don't think it's romantic anymore, it's just different.
But anyway, seeing that relationship develop on screen was magic and it was brilliant and I got Tumblr and all that changed my life, so Glee, I hate you, you suck, you make my day worse, but you created Brittana (at least the lovely Naya Rivera and Heather Morris did), so I grudgingly thank you for that.
Day 8: Things that make you sad?
One of my best friends has complex regional pain syndrome and that sucks heaps, which makes me sad. It's one of the worst pain disorders out there, has almost no treatments, pain killers do nothing so my friend just has to grin and bare it.
Still, it makes her life very tough and stops her from doing so many things, like running or sport, even just being able to rough house or be touched carelessly. It's such a random, pointless thing.
Day 9: Things that make you happy?
TV shows and books. And some movies. I can't live without characters and plots and stories and feels, I get a lot of joy from that. I also love sport, I like getting competitive and winning and getting better at things. I like pretty things, like rainbows and colours and fruit and ohmigosh, food.
Day 10: What you think when you hear the words “be yourself”?
I'm all about platitudes and cliches. I love them. I have a whole fitness blog dedicated to reblogging quotes like that. They totally motivate me. I think 'oh my gosh, that's RIGHT, I'm the only me there is! Why would I be a second rate copy of someone else when I'm GREAT? People need to like me for me because I'm too lazy to act like someone else forever! Eventually they'll work it out and then were would I be? To quote Darren Criss, there is nothing more badass than being who you are.
Day 11: The worst advice you’ve ever heard, or ever been given?
I'm in a weight loss mood so I suppose I'm thinking along those lines, because there is so much bad advice out there about fitness and weightloss. Some of it is by the pro mia/pro ana people, things like the Skinny Girl Diet, which is eating basically around 300 calories a day (an average person eats 2000), or intermittent fasting, or juice fasts. Anything that tells you to eat less than 1200 is dangerous. Though I only ate about 900 today, oops. I fell asleep, things happened.
Day 12: The best advice you’ve ever heard, or ever been given?
I was trying to think of something profound but I failed a bit. I think the best advice I've been told is just to be comfortable with yourself, to like yourself, not to stress over things you can't change. My advice to people is generally unhelpful and condescending things like 'stress less' and 'chill out'.
Day 13: Your favorite quote?
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."
~ Maya Angelou
I have a lot of favourite quotes but I think this is the top one for me. In the end, it's not the endless hours scrolling tumblr or sleeping or watching TV that'll matter, it's the heart beating fast, putting ourselves out there, crazy wild stupid things we do, those are the moments we'll remember. I need to endeavour to have more of those :)
Day 14: Write about something you believe in, anything at all
Feminism. I've written a bunch of posts on that, refer there for more :) Equality is important :)
Day 15: A song that makes you cry and why?
White Horse by Taylor Swift gives me lots of feels. Listen to it, it's pretty obvious why.
Day 16: Someone you trust?
My cousin Lizzy. She's pretty trustworthy :)
Day 17: Your idol and why you look up to them?
Jennifer Lawrence, for being such a badass, for being independent, funny, confident, herself and making no apologies for being that, while still being ambitious and driven.
Day 18: Why you made your blog, why you still have it?
This blog is purely because I love to talk about myself and I like thinking people are reading it :) My Tumblr blogs are to keep me 100% up to date on fandom and to keep me motivated and educated on fitness and nutrition.
Day 19: Your thoughts on your family?
My family is pretty good. Dysfunctional to an extent but all families are and even if some parts aren't really family, just people you're related to, I'm close to quite a few people that make the rest worth it. I think family is really important.
Day 20: What you think makes someone beautiful?
Confidence, a lovely smile and a killer tan :) I know that's superficial, but we don't have to talk about their beautiful soul do we? You don't look at someone and say 'dear god, they're beautiful', unless you're either in love or they have outer beauty aka dark tan, smooth skin and a pretty smile.
Day 21: What does your favorite tshirt look like?
I HAVE to change this entry because I got a new shirt today and I only wrote the entry last night so it's not a big difference, from my bffl, and its amazing, brilliant, perfect, argh. It's from America, my very first fandom shirt :) Goodbye fandom shirt-ginity. Here's a pic, I had to put it on as soon as I got it. It's Dean and Cas from Supernatural, it's fanart and the quote is from the first words Castiel ever said to Dean, "I'm the one who gripped you tight and raised you from perdition."
I am blissful with happiness.
Day 22: How you judge intelligence?
I know I shouldn't really, but I judge it a lot on IQ, education, politics, opinions and knowledge of random crap.
Day 23: A month/year of your life when you were happiest and why?
October 2012. I know that's when HSC and everything was, but it was a great time, both romantically (first pash), emotionally, socially and scholastically. Not only did I go well in exams, not really stressing out, I graduated then and probably had formal, I grew closer to my bffl and we were both really happy and dramatic and having dramas over boys and crushes and it was such fun.
Day 24: Your favorite 10 people right now and why?
Seriously, 10?
- Mama
- Dad
- Mia (bffl)
- Jess (cos we're spending more time together)
- Mego (cos always)
- Austin (cos always)
- Lizzy (cos favourite cousin 5eva)
- Me (cos I'm awesome)
- Bri (cos ily)
- Sarah (cos ily)
I'm very female centric hey.
Day 25: The last movie you watched?
The Other Boleyn Girl. With Scarlett Johannson who is my celebrity crush if ever I had one. Her and Jennifer Lawrence. It's the lips and the figure and her eyes and her confidence and talent and skill and she's perfect ok? Though TOBG is kind of a let down, it's one of my favourite books but a disappointing adaptation.
Day 26: 5 things you’re looking forward to?
- Losing weight. These last two days I've spent writing heaps long letters to myself (future Lucy) in texta for my motivation wall, which is getting huge now after a year of being added to, but basically just how I can absolutely do it if I just don't give up and keep remembering why I'm doing it and what's important. I wrote letters to convince myself not to binge, letters to not fall off the wagon and when I do, how to regain motivation and get back to it (hoping I won't need that one), and a letter for once I do succeed, or at least get a lot closer. That letter is strictly to be read once I'm under 62kg. That's pretty close to my goal weight which is 60kg, though of course it's more about just seeing where I'm happy and comfortable at, and what I can maintain. But anyway, a lot of my convincing is about picturing the future in vivid detail, what it could look like when this Uni semester is over if I try hard, not just at exercising and eating right, but at making friends, being happier and enthusiastic and motivation for studies. I mean, of course, losing weight doesn't do all that for me, but being happier, motivated and enthusiastic every day, the weight will come off as a side effect :) Which will fuel my happiness and drive to continue.
- Uni starting back. Which is a surprise because my friends have all been saying that and I've been like, what is wrong with you, holidays are the best thing ever. But I think after one more month, I'll be ready to get stuck back in, hopefully with a fire to succeed that last year lacked. Also, I'm eager for time to pass in a way, because well... refer back to number 1. Every day is a step closer :)
- Seeing the dogs again. When school goes back, I'll ask Mum to set up a play date for me.
- Showing off my hair!!
- Seeing my friends again. Jeepers, it's Australia Day and I hung out all day by myself. What gives?
Day 27: A person you wished lived closer and why?
The owners of my dogs, jfc. I mean, I know it makes sense that they live in Stanwell Park and if they didn't, we wouldn't know them and they never would have taken the dogs but it just makes planning to see them such a production and an all day event.
Day 28: Something you makes you really angry?
Slutshaming and rape culture. I;d expand but I'm not in a mood for a rant. If you don't know what those things are, look them up and educate yourself.
Day 29: A date you’d love for someone to take you on?
Oh man. Okay. Alright. Let me think. I have some 'musts' but everything else can change, so this is just one idea that would be awesome. Okay. Evening date, wearing a pretty but casual dress (like just a summer dress), while he's in dark jeans and a clean Tshirt, he picks me up from my house and we go and get Chinese or chicken n chips or something else delicious, and we take it to the grass near the beach, he has a picnic basket with plates and lemonade and maybe a picnic blanket and we sit and eat and talk. Then we put the basket back in his car and go for a long walk along the shore at the beach when all the stars are out and then we kiss and it's great.
That's the dream, man. To be honest, I got close with you know who to fulfilling it but we both cancelled.
Day 30: 5 favorite girls names, 5 favorite boys names?
I am way more prepared for this that I need to be.
Girls:
- Chloe
- Abigail
- Leah
- Bethany
- Chelsea
Boys:
- Daniel
- Hayden
- Jared
- Andrew
- Jacob.
Day 31: A bit about your social life outside of tumblr?
It's not too bad... I mean, it isn't rocking right now but sometimes it is. I have lots of close friends and everything is sweet in the how-many-people-care-about me area, but I don't go out a lot doing crazy interesting stuff because they can be lame. I do lots of sports and things, meet people like that, I'm at Uni so that's vaguely social and I get invited to parties now and then. So moderate-to-low popularity with many really close friends but no affinity for acquaintances or casual friends.
Day 32: How many pictures do you have in your room?
None really, of me or friends. I have my motivation posters, I have paintings of my puppies, and netball signs from last years semis, but I don't really have pictures. I keep a few photo albums on my shelf though.
Day 33: Someone who really hurt you?
Anyone who has actually read my blog knows this one. You-know-who really did, more than I ever thought he would. But it was a messy jumble of bad decisions from both of us so I take my share of blame as well. I saw something on Tumblr the other day that said "I gave you my heart." "Well, I didn't ask for it." And perhaps that is true. Not completely, I know it wasn't one sided and he made me fall for him in some ways by being the charming asshole that he is and directing that in my direction but I'd never deny that feelings need some kind of approval from the one feeling them to let them go crazy and I let them.
|
What even... let me look it up. Sigh.
I'm Australian, what the fuck is a poptart? I mean, I've heard of them, obviously, I read, but idfk. What flavours are there? Day 36: What do you think about your friends? They're good. They're true friends, the ones I'm going to keep 5eva. My bffl, Bri, Mego, they're gonna be around for a long time, hopefully my whole life. You-know-who and some of the others, who knows? Maybe. They aren't perfect people, but neither am I and I can accept their flaws generally, that's why they're still around. They make me happy and make my life much more pleasant and fulfilling. |
Day 37: Who are you?
I don't even. I'm Lucy. I'm a girl, I'm white, I'm Australian, I'm a student, I'm 19, I'm blonde, I'm not skinny, I'm smart, I like small dogs and other small fluffy animals and reading. I like running mostly, I'm a feminist. I like boxing and aggression sports because they make me feel badass. I'm a shooter in netball, I like kids, I like TV shows.
Day 38: Thoughts on your generation?
Hmm, I suppose to an extent I like, and am proud of my generation. Like, in 21 Jump Street, while I don't recommend the movie, it had the two cops who would have graduated high school in the 90's, typical high school, popular jocks and uncool nerds dichotomy, coming back to pose as students and finding the whole social ladder different. When they said they didn't care about recycling or something, the main 'cool kid was like 'that's fucked up man, who doesn't care about the environment?' I think that's changed a bit, being a bit nerdy, a bit smart, I think that means more. Basically hipsters. I think kids have more sense of the world. But also, the negatives, I think everyone is so fucking coddled and sheltered. I think the internet makes it worse. I think the massive amount of medicating kids is bad, I think the amount of depression/anxiety/social awkwardness, I think that's not all brain chemistry and 'no one's fault', I think it's the way kids were raised. Sorry if that's offensive, but I do. I think being coddled has made us soft. Sometimes I do want to tell people to build a bridge and get over it. I'm not saying that my parents generation had it right, with the cane and kids should be seen and not heard but I think we do it wrong too. I think sending kids outside to play and just spending all their time outdoors, it's good for kids. I know society has changed and it's not always possible to have that neighbourhood kids experience- I was lucky to have it. There's more stranger danger, less knowing your neighbours, more people....
Overall my generation doesn't suck, I'm not going to be like 'I wish I was from this or that era', even though it would be cool to have been there in the 70's for the second wave feminist revolution, because I think it would have been amazing to be that kind of activist, when no women wore bras and you could go to rallies and protest the Vietnam war and feminism wasn't a dirty word... but I respect and understand the fact that my life is better than theirs because of their efforts and I reap all the benefits there.

Day 39: Why you think you’ve learned more from the good or the bad?
While bad stuff does teach us more, my life is mostly a jumble of positive experiences so overall, it's the good that I've learnt from most.

Day 40: What are features you get complimented on a lot?
Mostly my hair before I dyed it brown and chopped it off. I regret it somewhat, the number of times I was told that millions of people would die for my hair colour, and how many hair dressers telling me how thick it is and how many people asking if it was naturally that colour.... but my hair is my hair, it was my choice to cut it off, people do say it looks nice short, I don't know if I agree, but I'm used to hiding behind my hair. I think I just want to be blonde again.

Day 41: When was the last time you wrote a letter? to whom?
Awkwardly.... to myself. I write myself letters like a loser. I don't mean I post them or whatever, I just write to my future self, to keep myself on track and just to amuse myself to look back on.

Day 42: What do you think of your driver’s license picture?
It's not super flattering but who cares, it means I can drive which is one of the best things about being an adult.

Day 43: Is it possible to lie without saying a word?
Of course. You can like through not saying anything, through what you don't say, through what other people say and you don't correct. Through your actions. Through how you smile, or shrug, you can ignore people you'd really rather sit and watch and listen to all day. You can kiss someone and that could be a lie. What you do is about so much more than words. Lying is just willfully allowing people to have their misconceptions, about keeping people from the truth and you don't need words for that.

Day 44: When was the last time you wore a dress?
Sunday. I like dresses. It was my pink army camouflage dress.

Day 45: When was the last time you tried something new?
Well, maybe all the exercising things, like starting boxing. Or doing a major run, with 40000 people. Or going to the Bank today by myself, that was new... I don't know, I'm doing pretty well at advancing myself in terms of experiences lately.

Day 46: What makes you smile?
Singing to myself...watching awesome TV shows, getting excited over things, eating delicious food....

Day 47: What was your last Halloween costume?
Don't do Halloween.
Don't do Halloween.
Day 48: Your life story in three words
This is too hard.... um....
This is too hard.... um....
Day 49: Are you a lover or a fighter?
Can't I be both? Probably fighter. Fighting with boys I like is totally a turn on.

Why not? It's fun. I like questions.
Day 51: Describe your future wedding?
I haven't decided yet. It wouldn't be too large, just family and close friends... maybe in the park or something, as opposed to in a church. I don't want a beach wedding, but I'd love a reception near the beach, so all the photos are taken on the sand... but of course, these are decisions I'll make with my fiance when I have one. My wedding day isn't one of those things I dwell on too much.
