020; [3/50 QTWFYM] their eyes cast down|i'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

So I stumbled upon a website with a whole bunch of questions, 50 to be exact, that one can ask them self. I love talking about life and self, although it can be depressing sometimes. Anyway, I scanned through the questions and I thought it would be kind of fun to answer them in this blog. So hope you enjoy my answers, and please feel free to leave YOUR answer in the comments. 


50 Questions That Will Free Your Mind 
3.If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
Because that's just a part of life.
My "dream job" is teaching overseas. That's something that I've wanted to do since elementary school, and the spark has not worn out. If anything, it's only gotten bigger. So as much as I don't want to do summer school or by extension any school in general, I kinda have to in order to reach my goal. 
Imagine getting everything you want with the snap of your finger (or push of a button if you can't snap). Novelty wears out fast. The reason why we really appreciate things is because we have to work for it. Besides, we should appreciate what we have right now. Some people love focusing on the shitty things of life. All I can say to that is suck it up princess.

2. Which is worse, failing or never trying?  Both of them kind of suck, but never trying is the worst.
I'm pretty open-minded and I love trying new things, although I do have a slight fear of failing....Back in high school I went to some outdoors place with activities such as archery, tight rope walking, and rock climbing. If you know me, you know that I am not an athletic person, so naturally I had this huge fear of making a fool of myself and failing.   I tried everything and I'm really glad I did because it was really fun! Also, I didn't fail too miserably... I didn't fall, I made it to the top, but I couldn't hit the board for the life of me.

018; [1/50 QTWFYM] What's my age again?

So I stumbled upon a website with a whole bunch of questions, 50 to be exact, that one can ask them self. I love talking about life and self, although it can be depressing sometimes. Anyway, I scanned through the questions and I thought it would be kind of fun to answer them in this blog. So hope you enjoy my answers, and please feel free to leave YOUR answer in the comments. 

50 Questions That Will Free Your Mind
1. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?                                                      
  
According to others: between the ages of 12 - 25. 
             I went out to Montana's Cookhouse on Family Day and the hostess gave us our menus. She gave me a special paper kids menu. Please take note that kids menus are given to children under the age of 12 meaning anyone over the age of 12 cannot order from the kids menu. To add on to that, she told me there are activities at the back. 
             On the older side, I was observing as ESL class and the students were curious about my age. I told them to take a guess. Here's what they thought: 22?23?25?24? When I told them my age, they were kind of shocked.                                                                                                                                                                                                          
According to myself: 16; 18; 20; 36
              I have to admit, there are times where I get overly excited about something/someone and I act like a squealish, 16 year old, teen bopper fangirl... BUT I can say that I'm not and never was that bad actually. I'm not the type of person, nor was I ever, to wait outside for days for a glimpse of celeb crushes. I never dreamed of spending my life with crushes. I never even wrote to crushes. Here's a fun quote my friend said to me back in high school: "Be careful, your fangirl is showing" - JM 
              I feel that 18 is a transition stage, and I don't feel comfortable thinking of myself as an "adult." I can't cook, drive, or do laundry. I can however make appointments and sign documents. So um,  I have not yet reached that stage of independence. 
                I feel 20 and I don't know why exactly. I mean it's  almost there, so maybe it's an internal thing. Also, 20 relates to university/college student and that's exactly what I am.  
               Sometimes I feel so tired after school or work and all I want to do is sleep. Unlike many people my age who have a night life, I like to spend most of mine relaxing at home. So in that way, I feel like a burnt out 36 year old stay at home mom perhaps? Also, I have find couponing interesting - not that I would do it (too much work), but it fascinates me.
so there's me in a messy nutshell.

017; First time teaching and I fell in love with Judas

Like many students, I've done presentations.
Like many prospect teachers, I've tutored students.
Unlike many teachers, I've not taught many lessons.

I taught my first official lesson today in an ESL (english as a second language) class.
Keeping it brief, there were moments of both good and bad, but the best was the rapport I built with the students (they even clapped at the end of the lesson). They all seemed like interesting people and I really wanted to talk to them on a more friend-like level buuut I had to restrain for "professional" reasons.

On the side note: new Lady GaGa <3
