Viagem para a felicidade... |
The more I post, go through old photos, and take new ones, the more I'm reminded of how beautiful life is. There were hard times, and there were great times, and I expect there will be more of each to come. This blog is photographic evidence of the course of my life, and my journey towards happiness. |
the air smells so sweet tonight. weetabix must be making something yummy :)

10. I think usually I’m a good friend. I guess I can be kinda boring though. And when I’m in a bad mood I’m not much fun…
19. Yes definitely! Although the thought of having to do CPR does scare me… I’ve heard that if you do it right, you break ribs…
25. If I could wish anything… whoa. Too many options. I’d probably wish for something cliche like “world peace” or “no more starving people” but I feel like if those came true, more complicated problems would just come out of it.
I’d personally love to travel. But really, I think the best thing anyone could wish for is happiness. If you’re happy with what you have, what more can you ask for?

2. The last time I was really angry was because my mom came into my room at 3 in the morning, woke me up, and asked me where my brother is. She could have just gone into his room to see if he was there (he was)! I was pissed, but I’m over it.
8. This actually kinda happened to me. He was my really good friend, but he was my ex-boyfriend’s BEST friend. Honestly, I was really mad, but I didn’t let him know that. I just kindof told him that I wasn’t ready for a new boyfriend, and that I really liked him but just as a friend. Unfortunately though, it’s not the same with us anymore :(
| 1. What is more difficult for you, looking into someones eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they are telling you how they feel? | |
| 2. Think of the last time you were REALLY angry. WHY were you angry? Do you still feel the same way? | |
| 3. You are on a flight from Honolulu to Chicago non-stop. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You have enough time to make ONE phone call. Who do you call? What do you tell them? | |
| 4. You are at the doctor’s office and he has just informed you that you have approximately one month to live. Do you tell anyone/everyone you are going to die? What do you do with your remaining days? Would you be afraid? | |
| 5. You can have one of the following two things. Which do you choose? Why? Love and Trust. | |
| 6. You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late even once more, you are fired. Do you take the time to save the dogs life? Why or Why not? | |
| 7. Would you rather be hurt by the one you trust the most or the one you love the most? | |
| 8. Your best friend confesses that he/she has feelings for you more than just friendship. He/she is falling in love with you. What do you (or did you) do/say? | |
| 9. Think of the last person who you know that died. You have the chance to give them 1 hour of life back, but you have to give up one year of yours. Do you do it? Why or Why not? | |
| 10. Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend? | |
| 11. Does love = sex? | |
| 12.Your boss tells your coworker that they have to let them go because of work shortage, and they are the newest employee. You have been there much longer. Your coworker has a family to support and no other means of income. Do you go to your boss and offer to leave the company? Why or Why not? | |
| 13.When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt regardless of how difficult it was for you to say? Who was it? What did you have to tell the person? | |
| 14. What would be (or what was) harder for you to tell a member of the opposite sex, you love them or that you do not love them back? | |
| 15. What do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up? Why would it be hard to lose? | |
| 16. Excluding romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you loved them. Who were they to you? | |
| 17. If there was one moment and one time in the last month what would you change and why? | |
| 18.Imagine it is a dark night, you are alone, it is raining outside, you hear someone walking around outside your window. WHO do you wish was there with you? | |
| 19. Would you give a homeless person CPR if they were dying? Why or Why not? | |
| 21.You are holding onto your grandmother’s hand and the hand of a newborn that you do not know as they hang over the edge of a cliff. You have to let one go to save the other. Who do you let fall to their death? What was your rationale for making the decision? | |
| 22. Are you old fashioned? | |
| 23. When was the last time you were nice to someone and did NOT expect anything in return for it? | |
| 24.Which would you choose, true love with a guarantee of a broken heart, or never loved at all? Why? | |
| 25.If you could do anything or wish anything, what would it be? | |

All I have wanted all day was ice cream. Now I have it.
I am so happy :)
I found this on my grandma’s mantle last night. Most of the photos are of my family… but look at the one to the far right…
Last night my grandma was talking about how people from Berlin, DE have a certain happy, carefree way about them.
All of a sudden I just wanted to be back there. And not just as a tourist, I wanted to be a part of it.
Can you believe it’s been 5 years?

(via imgTumble)Ten Things To Do When You Feel Like Crap:
1. Have a really hot, long shower. Cry if you need to. Sit on the ground. Feel sorry for yourself. Let the steam soak into your skin. Let the hot water wash your face clean. But the moment you turn off that water, you are done feeling sorry for yourself. Make a decision to move on from that sadness.
2. Clean. I know, cleaning is boring and annoying - but how about that feeling you get when you are finished? The clean small of the vacuum? That feeling of accomplishment? Who knows, you might even find money along the way. Totally worth it. It’s like starting with a clean slate.
3. Call a friend you haven’t spoken to for a while. If your first choice doesn’t pick up, choose someone else. Ask them all about how their lives are going and tell them about yours. Not only will it take your mind off whatever crappy thing you have been plagued by, but you will laugh with them! Laughing triggers endorphins and endorphins make you happy!
4. Go for a run or a walk. This get’s your endorphins and dopamine going crazy. You will get more energy and more happiness just because the chemicals in your body are running around!
5. Stop and take it all in. Walking in the night? Stop and look at the stars. Breathe in the cold air. Feel alive.
6. Stop whining. Ever heard the saying “love life and life will love you back”? Or, the idea of the power of attraction? It’s true! If you sit around saying “why me, waaaaa waaaa” then bad things will happen to you. You’re already defeated. If you start saying, “I will be happy, I will accomplish my ambitions, I will find love, I do look amazing, I am a great friend” etc., then not only will you start to believe them but you will be amazed at what amazing things start to happen.
7. Drink tea. This always works. Not a tea fan? Try hot water with a slice of lemon and some agave syrup.
8. Make a conscious decision to stop holding certain grudges. We all have people we have held grudges on in the past. Let them go. If you feel like you owe this person an apology, don’t be too proud. Send them a sincere facebook apology. Sincerity is in the intent, so even if it’s a 2 sentence apology - as long as you mean it it’s worth it.
9. Cook some really nice, warm food. Stimulate your taste buds with anything as simple as two minute noodles or as lavish as a three course garlic bread, pasta bake, chocolate mousse triple combo.
10. Write down a list of goals to achieve for the week. As simple as “buy insect repellent” or as large as “jog for 25 minutes non stop” and tick them off when they’re done. You will feel very accomplished and that alone will help pep up your mood!

I love this, I use these things when I am feeling down and they really work!
