31 Day Challenge

Wow.
We broke up. 
Just like that. I stopped writing. You stopped reading. We went our separate ways. Didn't even text or call for one last session of love-making.

This blog is like a bad break-up. I hardly write anymore. This has just been because I am living the little life I have and enjoying every minute of it. When I rethink, or freak out, or feel like crying, my best friend has been by my side so I had no need to write.

But again, I miss it. I miss you. So there.. I broke the no communication.
Okay, back to the blog. Since there are 30 days in September, I will start posting the challenge posts on August, 31st. I don't foresee any reasons why I shouldn't take 10-15 minutes out of my day to write something to my non-existent readers. I will be blogging. 

If anyone is out there and wants to do this with me, I invite you 100%. Link your page in a comment and I will read everyday. :)


These are the topics.

Day 1: The story of your life in 250 words or less (or one paragraph... no one will be counting your words... probably)
Day 2: What's in your purse?
Day 3: Provide pictures of 5 celebrity crushes and explain why they are crushes
Day 4: Favorite quote (from a person, from a book, etc) and why you love it
Day 5: Publicly profess your love and devotion for one of your blogger friends. What makes them great? Why do you love them? If you don't have blogger friends, talk about a real-life friend or even a family member
Day 6: If you couldn't answer with your job, how would you answer the question, 'what do you do'?
Day 7: The thing(s) you're most afraid of
Day 8: If you won the lottery..
Day 9: Your 5 senses right now
Day 10: Most embarrassing moment (s). Spill. 
Day 11: Sell yourself in 10 words or less
Day 12: What do you miss? (a person, a thing, a place, a time of your life...)
Day 13: Issue a public apology. This can be as funny or as serious or as creative as you want it to be.
Day 14: Ten things that make you really happy
Day 15: A Day in the life (include photos from throughout your typical day - this could be "a photo an hour" if you'd like)
Day 16: Something difficult about your "lot in life" and how you're working to overcome it
Day 17: A favorite photo of yourself and why
Day 18: Tell a story from your childhood. Dig deep and try to be descriptive about what you remember and how you felt.

Day 20: Get real. Share something you're struggling with right now.
Day 21: A list of links to your favorite posts in your archives
Day 22: Rant about something. Get up on your soapbox and tell us how you really feel. (a pet peeve, a current event, a controversial topic, something your husband or roommate or neighbor or boss does that really ticks you off)
Day 23: Things you've learned that school won't teach you
Day 24: Your top 3 worst traits
Day 25: Something someone told you about yourself that you'll never forget (good or bad)
Day 26: Something you read online. Leave a link and discuss, if you'd like.
Day 27: A letter to your readers

Grief

We live every day trying to avoid it but it catches up. Something no one can fix. Something no one can control or change. Death. When it com...
