Today was a good day

 So much happened today, so I'll try to to this in some semblance of an order.

 First off, today's excursion was a bit overshadowed by a doctor's appointment in the early afternoon, but the things leading up to it made it a little bit better by each little event, and a few others made the waiting for results far more bearable.

 Things started off by going to a grocery store that my family loves, at which about five minutes into shopping, two little girls started saying. "She has a Elsa braid!" I had to look for a couple seconds before I saw them, and their mother was smiling at me and asked if I had seen the movie (Which I had). And the two girls continued to say I looked like Elsa, and every time we went past them in the store, one or both of the girls would stare at me until we were out of sight. So today, I was mistaken for a Disney Princess, and that made me feel wonderful!

 Then, at the checkout of the same store, I got some free advice relating to college from our cashier. Main point of it being, "Keep your mind open!" He was nice, though I am a friend of math, math is not a friend of his. So sadly we can't hang out :P But it was a good talk, and a rather encouraging one as far as college was concerned, saying to just keep my mind open to options and to possibilities. By far the best advice I've gotten about college since I've entered high school.

 Went to the doctor's office after that, had some preliminary look overs, and then had to wait a while for the next bit so we went shopping some more.

 At the second store I fell in love with the entire place, not to mention the employees were far more nice than most places I've been. (One of them was rocking an awesome purple and blue bob!) They have aisles with the wooden buckets and scoops so you can measure our how much of dried fruit, nuts, seeds, chocolate, chocolate covered things, anything you want. It was amazing! I treated myself to a little thing that I'd never even heard of before. Dark chocolate covered honeycomb. IT IS AWESOME. I've decided I'll treat myself to one piece each time I go, that is if I haven't finished the piece from before. It's very rich, and also rather big, so it's not something I'm going to finish any time soon.

 Went back to the doctor, and found out that I don't have anything wrong with me! Praise the Lord! It'd been a stressful week and a whole lot of things before hand, so I have a couple things to do though to get in better health all round, so that's good!

 Came home, (while reading a Hardy Boy's, my go too for car rides now.) and saw that shoes I bought last week had come in the mail! I now have two new pairs of sandals for the Spring/Summer! I'm so happy!

 Today has gone so much better than I thought it would. And now that I'm at home and blogging, I'm finally able to sit down soon and to start making notes for my outlining of my new book.

 Also, there's some homemade pizza coming out of the oven soon :)

Have an awesome weekend!

A daily life

Or a day in life, both are correct when you think about it.  So a number of things are already happening today, and other things being planned on getting done today. But for now, as far as things have happened already today: Tai Chi, calculated my bedroom to see if I could survive living in a Japanese sized apartment (Which I could), got excited about re-hydrating myself (constant state of dehydration, you're going down.) to the point where I've given myself a painful case of the hiccups, and looked at some old family photos.  As far as what else is planned for today: Painting, eating lunch, some school I guess if I can actually grasp any of it, and getting rid of these hiccups!!  So apparently the average size of a Japanese apartment is around 1,300 sq. ft. My bedroom is (rounded up) 259 sq. ft. Yes, I have a very large room, but to be fair I've got it essentially set up as an ultra mini apartment, and could probably very happily live in something just as big. Just p

By the grace of God

 It is only by the grace of God that I am still standing here on this earth. It is only by the grace of God that I draw breath, and am whole. Everything I am, is by the Grace of God.  Two years ago, a part of my life started that would not end for a long time, and is in some ways still ongoing.  Two years ago, in 2014, unknowingly began what I would now call the year of hell.  I was a bystander to verbal abuse and hate. I lived in close quarters with people that I became to be afraid of, and did not speak up. I hid, and I tried to hide in ways that never really worked, but have now become habits that are hard to break.  I kept silent during the calms, for fear that a wrong word would stir up a storm from a simple disagreement.  I often took to walking to a friends house just down the road, to see if they were outside and could hang out for a while. And to my knowledge they still don't know what transpired.  It is only by the grace of God that I found the courage in myself to

Villains

What do you think makes a villain a villain? A question proposed by a friend over on NaNoWriMo, Leila offered a question that made me realize, that I might have a very complicated, yet possibly not all that hard to grasp, idea on what a villain actually is, and is not.  A villain needs to be lots of things all wrapped up into one, and often times not everything all at once. A villain is usually someone who has at least one keystone to their personality that either rivals, or is the protagonists fear and/or vice. For instance, two of my own characters from a novel I did in 2014.   V will be villain, P will be protagonist. V1: I am suave, I offer compliments and disguise my observations as questions to gain more information. As well as being versed in the language of the country I am in, my main goal is to operate in the shadows and go as unnoticed as possible, unless I see my spotlight waning. P1: I can do away with superfluous comments or manners, I will ask direct que
