Another Blog With A Boring Title

Hello everyone! Having an excellent Tuesday, I hope! :)

So, for one of my classes the professor puts up a video, often a TED talk, that we need to watch and comment on every week. This week was a video of a man named Matt Cutt. His topic was on trying something for 30 days at a time, and referenced the movie Super Size Me. I had never really thought about it before; trying something, maybe just something small, for just 30 days.

I've tried saying 'Okay, I'm going to work out for one hour every day!' Well....that never works for me. I lose interest in MANY things very quickly. For example, writing this blog every day.. I did fairly well in 2011, I believe the bulk was in March of that year. But, I always get bored of it! For me, something like say...working out everyday is too much for me. I need small little baby steps in order to actually accomplish my goal.


Alright, alright. I'll get to my point. I haven't exactly decided what I want to do for 30 days just yet, but I'll figure it out I'm sure. I was thinking of something like taking a picture every day, but I tried that around Christmas and lasted literally three days. I could do something like writing over all my notes every day after class...but I basically already do that. If you have any suggestions for me, just either comment here, or maybe message me on Facebook.

I know I mentioned Les Misérables the other day, but I honestly CANNOT get that dang movie out of my head! I think why I'm so attached to the movie is the fact that instead of recording an album and then lip singing two months later while they're filming, they are actually singing the whole thing live. I suppose I just respect them all for their talent! It is honestly astonishing, and I really do recommend it to everyone. It should still be in theatres, and if it is not then please, rent or buy it when it comes out. :)

Welp, that's enough out of me! x) Don't forget to check out my beautiful ladies sometime, and show your support! Just post a comment on our wall, it could be about absolutely anything! :) I look forward to seeing you there! ;3

Toodles!

Another Day In The Life Of Silent Rose

Good afternoon! It is 12:15 pm on a lovely Monday morning, and I find that this Monday may not be as terrible as I had assumed during the previous week.

Apparently I received a call around 3:00pm on Friday afternoon last week.Of course, I was away all afternoon and I was not aware of said call until about the same time the next day. I realized that I had a voice mail, and when I checked that voice mail...well. You wish you could have been there to experience my excitement.

Back before I left to go home for the holidays, my school had a contest to win an Xbox 360. I had $100 of 'free' money so to say, and in order to enter, you just had to buy a bottle of Mountain Dew(which I needed the double XP for halo anyway..) and any bag of chips. So, day after day, I bought said items and entered a ballot. I entered soooo many times. Well, turns out that payed off as that voice mail was women confirming that I had WON that Xbox 360!!! I jumped off my bed and did a little fangirl squeal.. I'm expecting her to call again and you can be assured that I am VERY excited :3

Okay, new topic! So I went skating last night with my friends; something I have been looking forward to for over a week now. I was thinking, 'Hey, I haven't been skating for a few years now..but how hard can it be, right?' Wrong. As I've been telling absolutely everyone..I have about as much balance as a new born fawn. I fell twice, and I'm pretty sure I strained a few muscles in my lower back. BUT. I had fun and I may be doing it again here next week! Practice makes perfect as Mason always says :3

Alright, so I think I mentioned before that I have recently received three games: Red Dead Redemption, Skyrim, and Dishonored. Well, maybe not but I did now. So, I played Red Dead once before, and actually beat the story line which is honestly amazing to me. I've really hit it off with Skyrim, though I wasn't positive I would. I wasn't a fan of Oblivion at all, but Skyrim seems different somehow. But, on to the third game of the bunch: Dishonored. I've heard mixed views on this game; some say it is extremely fun, and I should most definitely play it. Others say that it is extremely hard and due to the fact that the whole game is basically about sneaking, I wouldn't like it. Though, I do have it on the *easiest* difficulty and thus far it has peaked my interest. I plan to play more soon and I think I will enjoy it. Of course, I can't be absolutely positive, but I'm about 89% sure ;)

One last thing I'd like to mention: She Devil from our clan Ladies 2 Die 4 has recently posted an article about the DayZ Standalone Release Date. You should definitely check it out! :)

And thus, once again, I have finished another blog post. If you've enjoyed what you've read so far, then please, share my blog and get it out there so other people can read it too! :) Thanks so much to everyone else who has viewed my blog and shared it as well! Alright, I'm off now! Hope you all enjoy this beautiful Monday.

Fus Ro D'aww

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been posting the last couple days. I honestly meant to, but between school work and attempting to deal with a few personal problems.. I've just been a wreck. Some things are somewhat resolved now, others..not so much. But, like I said, I'm going to post about Skyrim today.

So my friend Dustin got me Skyrim for Christmas this year, and I remember when I played Oblivion I absolutely HATED it >->. BUT. I actually REALLY enjoy Skyrim O.O Literally the first thing I did was go to Whiterun and join The Companions. For those of you who haven't played Skyrim and have no idea what I'm taking about..well, I began my quest to become a Werewolf ;)

You guys probably know just how much I love wolves and werewolves in general, but I LURV being a werewolf in Skyrim xD So much fun. But, anyway. So, I'm a High Elf warrior and I use both One-Handed weapons and magic when I fight. Absolutely love it haha.

Anyway, moving on. So yesterday my friends and I went shopping, and I never actually bought anything which kinda actually sucks x| -- but, we decided to go see a movie. It took us literally forever to choose what movie, because I wanted to either see Django Unchained or The Hobbit, and my friend Al 2 (I'm Al 1;) wanted to see This Is 40. But I was like ehhhhh.... -_-. So eventually we all agreed on Les Miserables and Oh My Word... it was an excellent decision. Les Miserables is an AMAZING movie, so moving. It actually made me cry. A lot. Which is kinda weird for me but the movie was so incredibly sad and heartfelt. I'm getting teary eyed just thinking about it.. :'). But, anway... lol.

So something kinda weird/awesome happened last night. I was playing a little HC SnD, when I randomly got into a match and started playing with a couple guys who sounded pretty chill. So of course when I ended up at the top of the lobby they were like 'Dude..we just got our asses beat by a girl.' Pretty common remark, wouldn't you say? I was intrigued so I checked out their bio's and discovered that they were from the same town I grew up in. I was like O.O no way. So I just casually asked them where they were from and when they told me I was like 'No way! Me too! :3'. They didn't believe me and when I told them my name they were like O.O omg. I laughed so hard lol I had graduated with them both last year, and all three of us are in different provinces at the moment. We ended up playing until like 2 in the morning but it was a good time :)

Alrighty, I've said what I wanted to say and now.. I leave you with my Skyrim pony ;) Enjoy!

Happy Gaming!

To say or not to say

Hello once again, my lovelies! Here I am..posting again.. lol. Amazing isn't it? But I'm sure I'll be bored by this time next week. I don't know, right now I just feel like expressing myself, the thoughts just swirling around in my head..

Of course, some things that I want to get out on the screen, I can't for fear that the one person it involves will KNOW I'm talking about them. You know what I mean? But it bothers me, a whole hell of a lot.. We've talked about it before, but I got really upset and things didn't really get resolved. Very unfortunate. Things don't really seem to be working out recently, which pisses me off. But whatever! New topic! :D

I guess I'll just start venting on here lol that's what blogs are for, right?!
Nope. Well, not for me. Not solely anyway. Right now I wanna talk about that ONE thing but UGH I can't.. Although I doubt they'd be reading this anyway..

So my biology professor, Dr. Kemp started talking about how he grew up in a VERY religious home, and he was completely against evolution until he went to university and began taking Biology courses. So now, like many other people, he believes evolution and everything. He said that he will never say there isn't a God because c'mon, does he really have a right to completely deny you what you believe? No, those are your beliefs, and no one can tell you otherwise.

I really like that about him. I, personally, am more on the side of evolution. I believe that we all started as tiny little microrganisms, then evolved into chimps, then into what we are today over billions of years. If you want to believe in God, feel free, I am ALL for it! :)

Of course, you'll request that I respect your religion, maybe even try it. And of course I'll respect it, I have no right to tell you what to believe in. BUT, please don't ask me to try to believe in religion and God, if you won't even begin to think about trying to accept evolution, and say it didn't happen. Don't completely disregard what I believe in, then expect me to accept religion. That just seems so freaking disrespectful to me, you know?

Anywho... away from any sort of talk of religion...lol. Lets talk about PONIES! :D
More specifically, My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. I love that shit. Its so adorable x) I have an awesome picture here that crosses Halo 4 and MLP and I just love it!
I mean look at that!! That is intense ;)

Anyway, I'm all typed out, so I'll just leave you here with my awesome pony! Happy Gaming everyone!

One year Later...

So, it has come to my attention that I haven't actually posted on here for a little over a year... Say What? That is just a little crazy, I mean look at the effort I put in to this blog? Over 1.8 K views?! I'm a little shocked honestly.

So hey, listen. I know I ALWAYS say "Oh hey! I'm going to start posting again!!! YAY!'. But no. Not this time. I probably won't be posting, and if you don't want to keep checking me out, then hey, feel free not to. I don't always have something to say anyway. But, I might as well update you on my life, right?

  • I'm now 18 years old, and in my second semester of University. (Canadian university btw)
  • I have a boyfriend, Sasha, whom I love very much :)
  • I moved to a new province to begin my university experience, and so far I'm really enjoying it! :)
  • I am still with Ladies 2 Die 4 (yes, please check us out, we have over 8.2K likes on our Facebook page so far and counting!) I've been with my ladies for almost three years and I absolutely love them :) We've got some great gaming content on the way, as well as more of those awesome contests we enjoy so much!
  • I still have Casper, my amazingly cute kitten :3 But he has to stay at home because I'm in residence :'( As well as Daisy. I miss them both very much, but I'll see them again in April! :)
Okay, so one more thing I'd like to mention:
I am currently taking a couple courses that I am quite interested in, and I may share a few of my sources or readings with you if I see fit. To start with, read the comments left on this product from Amazon.com. Simply HILARIOUS. Gotta love those trolls, eh?
Bic Pens for HER

Alright, I'm typing this as I wait for my final class of the day so bare with me here! lol
Okay so I said I wouldn't say it but I will anyway.... I'm going to post more. There. I said it. Please don't hate me when I undoubtedly go back on that.. I'm feeling up to it.. I mean look at all I've written so far! Haha. Okay guys, I hope you all had a lovely holiday and didn't get too too drunk on New Years lol
Happy Gaming!
