Writer's Block: Phobias

2008-07-24T20:42:43Z

Do you have a remarkable phobia? Does your phobia have a large impact on your life?

um, i have a lil phobia known as: AGORAPHOBIA.
simply put, it means i'm askeerd of social situations, reguardless of size.
why don't the psychiatrist just call it what it is??
I'M ASKEERD OF PEOPLE!!!

does it have an impact on my life, you ask??
yes. i can't be around ppl. & seeing as how ignorant ppl are out there breeding even more, ignorant ppl...you can see my dilemma :)

*ignore my sarcasm, this is how i cope*
seriously. this is a phobia i suffer from. i can't be around ppl i don't kno. in college, it got pretty bad: i had to sit with my back to the wall, facing the door, so i could see the door, the teacher, & the other ppl in the class room...that way, if i felt threatened or needed to make a quick escape, i could do so. even now, i freak out sometimes in Wal-Mart :(

Writer's Block: In the Shoes of an Extravagant Restaurant Owner

2008-07-21T02:34:35Z

If you started a restaurant, what would it serve, what would it look like and what would you name it? You have an unlimited budget.

well, i'd want a quaint lil place, like a diner. i'd call it "the picnic table" & i'd serve everything from home cooked breakfast/lunch with the fixins, to carnival/county fair food, to thanksgiving dinner every day of the week, to dessert :) it'd definitely be a family place to eat at cos we don't have a lot of funky places like that around here to bring the whole family to. also, i'd have a live band over the weekends, no alcohol, cos that causes problems & i think i'd have comedy shows as well atleast 3xs a month :)

some comforting words

Jesus' Rocking Chair
Many hopeful moms and dads try to have a child on their own.
some never get the chance, others do and see them grown.
Then there are those who are expecting that precious baby soon,
But then it's gone before it ever leaves the safety of its' Mama's womb.
There are those who have a boy or girl, the perfect gift from God,
But sickness or some tragedy takes them from their parents arms.
Mama's wish for days gone by, Daddy's long for that lost child,
But children are not lost when you know where they are.
She was 18 and unmarried, expecting her little one,
And in her time of confusion, she took the life of her son.
Since then Jesus forgave her, and He took all her shame away.
She still cries missing her baby, but she hears the angels say...
Jesus has a rocking chair,
And He holds that precious baby with oh such tender care.
He takes the place of Mom and Dad.
He's the greatest parent a child could have.
Don't worry about the children there.
Jesus has a rocking chair.

i hope someone reads these words in their time of grief & feels some comfort if they've lost a baby. i had originally posted this in an entry a few days ago, but have since had to f-lock that post cos some ~~ignorant~~ ppl misconstrude my intentions & thought i was being "hateful" when i spoke of something that effected me quite deeply.

The more I'm around some people
The more I like my dog
Man's best friend until the end
He's never done me wrong
So I took the chain from around his neck
And put a beware sign on the lawn
'Cause the more I'm around some people
The more I like my dog

I HOPE YA'LL KNO YOU'RE MAKIN MOM CRY.

If you could have the power to fly, be invisible, or teleport anywhere, which would you choose?

View other answers

i'd want to teleport. how cool would that be? seriously, if i had that power, i'd go everywhere. i'd go to all those real pretty places you see & wish you could go to but never have the money or the time to visit. i'd go visit England, France, Ireland, Italy, Greece, etc. if it was hot, i'd go to Alaska. if it was cold, i'd go to Hawaii. anywhere i wanted to go...ooh, i could go see my bunny...or i could pop in & viist my bff in cali. or i could just go over & visit my other bff across the way, just cos i missed her. teleportation would be my power, definitely :)

Do you ever want to be of the opposite sex? If so, what attracts you to the idea? If not, what repels you?

View other answers

YES!!!
i wanna be a boy so bad sometimes. don't get me wrong, i enjoy bein a girl & all, but sometimes i think it'd be a lot easier to be a boy. i mean, they don't have to deal with the shit we grrlz have to deal with on a daily basis.
i tell my parents all the time that i think i was supposed to be a boy & that i wanna get a sex change. they tell me i'm nutz. maybe i am. idk. but i wouldn't mind bein a boy...i think :)

Do Not Read

Bwuahahahaha! You could not resist clicking! ALL YOUR SOULS ARE BELONG TO ME!

The 'Tempting Fate' meme:

1. Make an LJ-cut post with "DO NOT READ" as the text.
2. Do not select a 'mood' for this post.
3. If anyone clicks the cut, they are to comment and admit to doing so.
4. Anyone who reads this also has to do the same in THEIR journal, thus continuing the neverending madness.

What's keeping you from your dream job?

View other answers

i think for now what's keeping me from dream job is the fact that ~~i can't find a publishing company to view my work.~~ see, i wanna be a writer, but i keep getting side-tracked by life or i think i might actually have the opportunity to publish my work one day, then i can't find anything other than publishers who want me to pay a huge fee upfront to em before they'll work with me.

Writer's Block: Back in Time

2008-04-19T05:11:56Z

If you could travel in time, which era would you visit and why?

View other answers

~if i could visit one era in time, it would be sometime b/t 1970-1973.
why?
cos my brother rickey was alive then. i never got to meet my brother rickey cos he was killed in a motorcycle accident in 1974. i wasn't born til 1983.

why wouldn't i go back in time to the day he was killed & warn him, ya might be asking yourself?
i wish i could do that, really i do. but God has a plan for all of us. i try to remind myself that God knew when it was time for rickey to leave this place & return to heaven. i try to believe that God has a greater plan, beyond our comprehension. no, i wouldn't go back to tell him, i'd just like to go back to meet him. to touch him. to hug him. to know him, if only for a moment.
