I'm doing 39 things
My username comes from, quite literally, a bear soap. My grandma gave me and my sister a thing of soap shaped as a bear. It smells like lemon. It’s currently residing in a hollow, plastic carrot. (something my mom got me for easter. It was filled with easter-egg shaped gum.)
I guess that’s not something weird ABOUT me, but it’s something weird that’s connected to me…

How I did it
It made me
Happy 
How I did it: It wasn't a big deal, I just needed to just buckle down and order something (That I really like, of course). I have trust issues with internet sites that want to know all of my information and my card number, but I knew it was a legitimate website, so I took a deep breath and clicked the "Buy" button. I bought an owl necklace. It hasn't arrived yet, and it probably won't by the time I leave for school, but it's all good. Read how I did it…

1. Had a good day. I had to get up at like 8 to go to work at 9, but I was only there for 3 hours (helping with a kid’s show). I came back home and slept till 4, which is longer than I wanted to sleep, but oh well, you know?
2. I bought this really cute shirt the other day and I wore it today. Exciting, right :p
3. Went to church to watch the youth group practice for this Night of Worship thing that they’re doing for the church. Nothing got done really, and I had to listen to this really immature kid talk about stupid things.

1. Well I’m back. I feel bad for forgetting about doing this, but I guess it’s okay. Last semester was really hectic and I felt like I was just crazy. And then when I got home all I wanted to do was home stuff, so I abandoned all the things I would do at school (like come on this website) But I’m back and I’ll try to write an entry every day. Or at least more than I have for a while.
2. I get to go to California this summer. Not really a “today” thing but I’m excited.
3. Yesterday, for the first time in a billion years, I bought a shirt that I absolutely LOVE. It’s one of those shirts that I don’t want to wear unless I’m going somewhere and I can show it off. It’s not too dressy or anything. Just one that I reallyyyy like. I heard or read somewhere that if you can’t imagine yourself wearing something every day, then don’t buy it (that seems a little extreme because I have things that I love but I wouldn’t wear everyday-not to mention that you might get some funny looks if you wore something every day.), and this shirt is one of those things.
See you tomorrow, hopefully :)
