30DC Day 30

A picture of you today and 20 goals:

Okay, I cheated, this wasn't taken today. This was taken 2 months ago. But I figure it's close enough. I have work in an hour so my hair's all back and I'm just not photo ready.

Hmmm...20 goals...That's a lot... Well, here we go!

1. Get up and put my laundry in the dryer...
2. Pin the dress I'm wearing for an event tomorrow :)
3. Grow a bust size for the event tomorrow (too bad that's pretty much impossible)
4. Eat lunch before I go to work.
5. Get home from work in time to see Chelsea Kane dance on Dancing With the Stars!
6. Have a good attitude at work. (That's hard sometimes)
7. File and clip my nails.
8. Get lip liner tomorrow (and a nail file).
9. Finish writing the chapter of a story I'm working on.
10. Make an eye doctor and dentist appointment.
11. Beat my high score at Bejeweled (310,000!!)
12. Finish rereading the Harry Potter series.
13. Write meaningful blog posts at least once a week.
14. Practice piano at least every other day.
15. Organize and purge my bedroom. (I have WAY too much crap!)
16. Scrapbook my stuff from my time at Disneyland.
17. Figure out what to do for Kavyn for her birthday which is in 51 days!!! AH!
18. Attend a Disney audition
19. Go back to school.
20. Finish this blog post.

Hey I accomplished 2 of those! The first and the last!

Consider my 30 Day Challenge complete!!!!

30DC Day 29

In the past month how have you changed?

Goodness gracious. Didn't we just go over this?! I've think that I've changed immensely. Become more understanding and less hot-headed. I've sweetened and softened. But at the same time I've become bolder and braver with my words and feelings. Also I'm more forgiving.

Along with all these deep and meaningful things my hair has changed colors and is now all one color. Before it was black on the bottom, brown towards the top and dishwater blonde at the roots. Now it's all dark brown. And that makes me very happy. And I started trying purple eyeshadow and eyeliner and lipstick and just lots of makeup. And it's so fun!

30DC Day 28

A picture of you last year and now and how things have changed since then:

Last year

This year

And oh dear, oh dear. What hasn't changed since last year?

Well, my name and that's about it.

Everything in my life has changed in the last year it seems. Especially me.

And that's a good thing I think.

I've calmed down in a lot of ways (As I tried to illustrate with the photos)

I've become much more adult.

I've become way more obsessed with makeup.

My relationships have been tested and strengthened.

I am no longer a teenager like last year.

Anyway many, many things have changed. And hopefully all for the better. I'm not the best judge of that though.

30DC

Okay, I have three left!! Almost done! But they're all like: take a picture of yourself today and stuff...and it's really late and I just got off work a little while ago, you don't want to see a picture of me right now. So I solemnly swear to do them in the next few days okay? :) (I really hope at least someone thought "I am up to no good" after I said "I solemnly swear".--I'm rereading the Harry Potter series if you didn't notice.) It will sure be weird to not have a post coming out every day. But hopefully I'll have enough purposeful ideas for every week.

30DC Day 27

Why are you doing this 30 Day Challenge:

First I did it because Rae did and said I should. And reading through the daily write-ups I was scared of writing some of those things and didn't know if I could. So it was brave to do this, which fits in quite well with my blog theme.

30DC Day 26

Places you want to visit before you die:

The Eiffel Tower

The Paris Opera House

(The home of Erik--the Phantom of the Opera)

The Hall of Mirrors at Versailles

(Where Marie Antoinette was married to King Louis XVI)

Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Hong Kong

I want to go to England.

Also, I want to go to Italy

I pretty much just want to go everywhere. Just these places especially. I want to take 2-3 months off of my life and go to every Disney park for a week or 2. That would be awesome. And then more time off to see Europe.

30DC Day 25

What I would find in your bag:

My wallet

Lipgloss

Carmex

Doodle Paper

Daisy Duck pen

Donald Duck mirror (Thanks again Kav!! She gave it to me for my birthday!!!)

Keys (on a Jonas Brothers lanyard!)

Team Jonas Ray Ban sunglasses! (I LOVE THEM!!)

My iPod

Random trash

Various food items like nuts just in case my blood sugar dips

30DC Day 23

What is something you crave:

Comfort. I constantly crave comfort and love. I crave big squishing hugs and cuddles. Maybe that's why I love kids, they're so free with their hugs and with their loves.

Also, I crave steak frequently. That probably means I need more iron and protein in my diet. Or that I just like steak.

30DC Day 22

What makes you different from everyone else:

This question I'm really excited about! Here we go!

I'm full of contradictions. (I hate bananas and love banana bread. I love kids but don't wanna be a teacher or daycare worker. I think quite a bit, but so quickly it seems I'm not thinking. There are so many more you'd just have to get to know me to get to know them.)

I love a lot of things, and with all my heart. Truly I do.

I'm satisfied with having just a few very close friends. I don't need a lot of friends. Even just one person to understand and love me is more than enough.

I dream ginormously. I don't think enough people do. Or maybe they don't admit it like me.

I write a blog about improving myself. (Maybe that's not so individual but I thought maybe.)

When I watch Phantom of the Opera or Enchanted or various princess movies alone I put on my petticoat (yes, I own 2), and then one of 2 of my big ball gowns and dance around my house singing along. :)

30DC Day 21

Share a picture of your day:

I have a cold (I'm actually nearly better today!!!!!!) so I've been sitting on the couch with that box of tissues, which I've used SO many of. I've filled a garbage bag with tissues in the past two or three days, I swear.

Technically today (from about 12:30-1:30 am) I was researching reasons why it's okay that Rae's moving. That picture right there is the number one reason why it's okay. It's the home of Denise and Kevin Sr. Jonas. Can you guess what me and Rae will be doing when I go to visit her? Well if you can't, you obviously don't know me very well.

(Maybe I'll bring them a birdhouse!! HAHA!...If you've seen Camp Rock and paid attention to Kevin's character you'll understand!)

30DC Day 20

If you had 3 wishes, what would they be:

"If you tell a wish it won't come true." ;) Thank you Cinderella for that brilliant excuse to not tell your innermost wishes.

30DC Day 19

Nicknames you have and how or why you got them:

I'm not one that gets nicknames easily. I only really have 4 I've ever been called.

C or C-C: From the first initial/syllable of my name.

Goo: From my childhood. Embarrassing I know.

Beers: My last name. While working at a pizza place there were 2 Ciera's so I was called by my last name for clarification.

Flea: Kavyn calls me this sometimes because I'm so small I'm a Flea. It's kinda odd and endearing and cute and I love it. :)

30DC Day 18

Plans/Dreams/Goals you have:

Plans:

Get back to Disneyland sometime in May. If that doesn't work out,then this fall. (I refuse to go when it's busy.)

Figure out my next step.

Dreams:

I'd love to go on America's Next Top Model.

I want to be famous. Not just to be famous, but to help other people and be an inspiration and an example. It's kinda dumb, but it's true.

Goals:

Get out of debt. Car debt, credit card, etc.

30DC Day 14

A picture of something you ate:

I forgot to take a picture and forgot to post this day.

I think I had a tuna fish sandwich with Dill Pickle hunks in it.

But I'm not sure. But that's something I would eat.

Yup.

30DC Day 17

Someone you would like to switch lives with for one day and why:

Oh there are SO many people I'd like to switch lives with for one day and for so many reasons. But one comes to mind the quickest.

Danielle Deleasa.

She's married to Kevin Jonas in reality and it would be interesting to see what that would be like. But I'd like to still have my body. I'm not very fond of her looks.

30DC Day 16

Something you could live without:

That's a funny question to ask...but I think I could live without....Oh I don't know...I could live without bananas. In fact I do. :)

30DC Day 15

Put your iPod on shuffle and share the first 10 songs that play:

1) Shattered Backstreet Boys (Yes I still listen to them. Frequently in fact.)

2) Wanna Be Startin' Somethin' Michael Jackson

3) The Call Backstreet Boys (See?)

4) Walk In The Sun McFly (I listened to this song 40 times in a row one night. I love this song)

5) Forever & Always Taylor Swift

6) The Last Song McFly

7) All I Ask of You Phantom of the Opera (Secretly I want to be proposed to with this song)

8) Sunburn Owl City

9) Black Keys Jonas Brothers (This song makes me cry. I'm so much like the girl in the song and it just hits home)

10) Enchanted Taylor Swift (One day I will be enchanted to meet someone and hopefully he'll be enchanted to meet me. I LOVE this song. Especially the "Please don't be in love with someone else. Please don't have someone waiting on you." That part pulls my heartstrings.)

My iPod's really good at shuffling. I promise I didn't cheat :)

30DC Day 13

Write a letter telling someone something you could never tell them:

Dear Kelsey,

I'm sorry. You were a good friend to me in a time that I needed you. I'm sorry for hurting you and for cutting you out of my life. I miss the laughter we shared and the secrets. I think of you often, but can't get over my pride enough to actually talk to you myself. I'm sorry for that. I feel like I just used you and when you branched out was selfish and wanted you only for myself. I reacted poorly and I'm sorry. You were so sweet to me and were a Godsend in my life. Thank you. Every time I hear Metro Station I think of you. I remember our Jonas Brothers concert together and sobbing over Sense and Sensibility together afterward.

Thank you for all your help and for carrying through that rough time.

I'm sorry.

Ciera

30DC Day 12

A picture of your room and don't cheat by cleaning. Share a secret.

Well, that's my room. I'm not sure if it means that my dirty room is a secret or if I'm supposed to share another secret. So maybe I'll share another secret...

Maybe not.... :)

30DC Day 11

A picture of something you dislike:

I. Hate. Bananas.

So much that I put gloves on when I have to touch them at work.

But I love banana bread.

And banana popsicles (twin pops).

I am full of contradictions such as this.
