Day 04- A habit that you wish you didn’t have

nail habits.

I don't have a really bad habit that i truly hate. Besides my uncontrollable habit to bite my nails. And it annoys me because i go get a pedicure whilst their long, grow them a bit longer then get either nervous or bored and bite them until their are short and i have to start this cycle again. I hate it and need to stop it, especially for the formal :)

From today onwards, the nail biting (hopefully) will end. I need to control myself.

peace :)

Day 02- The meaning behind your blog name

'Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.'

My blog really doesn't have that much of a meaning.
It is just a mixture of everything i feel the need to talk about. My opinions, stories and beliefs all in one internet page.

It is just a mixture of lifeandeverythingelse...because you have to embrace your life you live in.

However a few of these random statements below are small influences behind the blog...

Day 01- A recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about yourself...

DAY 1.
HEY, HI, HELLO.
Above is the recent picture of me, trying to feel summer in winter. (photograph courtesy of sophiee :D)

#rubyfacts (like#bieberfacts on twitter, you wouldn't get it if you don't have twitter),this should be interesting...
#rubyfacts1. I have the worst phobia of storms. I cannot be outside if there is a storm. It if it is raining and thats it, im perfectly fine but as soon as lighting or thunder strikes, i bail. I freak out and pretty much throw a tantrum, you wouldn't want to be there.

#rubyfacts2. Ferris Buller's Day Off, Pretty in Pink, The Breakfast Club - the list goes on...i absolutely love vintage movies. The humour, the actors, the clothes, the stories...they are all so awesome. I love them all...if you haven't seen the movies - go rent them ASAP :)

#rubyfacts3. I have two homes. One is my Dads & the other is my Mums. It is actually pretty fun, i mean both places are so unique. And both hold different memories and moments.

#rubyfacts4. I have the most influential relative ever! She has inspired me to believe and dream in something i love. She is a singer/songwriter and her amazing soul sound can move you. Nikka Costa - - > check her out :)



#rubyfacts5. I have the same name as a MTV VJ. I always thought my name was unique until it became famous...which was kinda what i wanted to do, but i guess she beat me to it!



#rubyfacts6. When i leave school i hope to go to the White House College :) - I have wanted to go here for a long time, i keep hoping i will!

#rubyfacts7. My favourite colour is RED. Possibly because of my name. But i love the vibrancy it lets off.

#rubyfacts8. I was born 10 weeks premature. I was so small i would sit in my Dads palm and sleep.

#rubyfacts9. I am terrible at reading. I don't mean i can't physically read. I just take ages. It took me about a year to read New Moon. (Probably because I get a bit too distracted.)

#rubyfacts10. I am 16. I don't see how that is interesting or a fact. But i can drive, i can drink in France & um, you no...im legal.

#rubyfacts11. I have a Tabby Persian cat called Tassie. I rescued him from Tasmania from a crazy drugged woman. Long story short, he is now healthy and in a wonderful family :)

#rubyfacts12. I have this fetish about eyebrows. Do you ever notice something on someone everytime you see them? Well i always look at peoples eyebrows...its hard to explain but I just have a fetish.

#rubyfacts13. I also own two fish, Bieber & Cosmo - i did have a Wanda too but she did various somersaults which ended in a horrible ending.

#rubyfacts14. I love to sing, but don't have enough confidence to be able to share my voice. I guess singing in the shower will have to do for now.

#rubyfacts15. And of course, my final fact, i am the ultimate Bieber fan and i would pretty much do anything for this boy...(embarrassing, i know) but he is my inspiration through what he does.

Well thats my first blog for the blog challenge complete, yay!
Day 2, its on.

shooting stars, airplanes, 11:11, genies, eye lashes, birthday candles, wishes....


All we ever do is sit around and WISH for something to happen, chances are, that something we are wishing for never will come true…but we keep hoping.

Shooting stars, 11:11, Blowing birthday candles..

All these things exist to give people HOPE. They do not exist for the simple pleasure of depending on them, they are wasting our precious time, as we wish for the things we want most to come true.

What do you wish for?

Sometimes I wish I could be the one fish that you choose out of all in the sea.

I wish I knew how to put exactly how I feel into words. I get close, but never quite on target.

I wish negative people would shut up.

I wish people would stop telling me what is cool and which isn’t.

I wish I could meet my idols.

I wish you could trust me more, as much as I trust you.

I wish I knew if he really did love me back then.

I wish people didn’t wish to be someone who they aren’t, and notice that they are beautiful inside and out.

I wish people wouldn’t judge other people.

I wish I didn’t keep having the same dreams, hoping when I wake up they will be real.

I wish I would talk to you without saying the wrong things.

I wish I wasn’t a bitch at times and hurt people I tried to get close to.

I wish I had more money, but only to use it for lavish gifts for my friends, and occasionally me.

I wish my parents could be together. And shit never destroyed them.

I wish it was natural for people, as soon as they realize they love someone, to tell them.

I wish I were as lucky as you.

I wish everything people told me throughout my childhood I could still believe.

I wish you could consider me that person you could tell everything to.

I wish you could break out of your shell and do what you want to do and not let others influence you.

I wish you would notice me for who I am and not how I’m different.

I wish I could know what is going through boys minds, all the time.

I wish there wasn’t such a thing as eating disorders, HIV/AIDS or cancers.

I wish older adults would take teenagers more seriously.

We all wish for a lot of things. Probably too many.


But in the end, in reality, if we stop wishing, there is actually this thing called,

“Making things happen.”

We need to stop wishing and starting believing…

winter.



Cold hands & feet.
Ugg boots everywhere.
Red noses and cheeks.
Jumpers and multiple layers.
Hot chocolates & toasty fires.
Things that make winter...feel warm.

Winter is that time of year where your mind travels elsewhere.
You are too cold to think and eat so much due to the fact you are too cold & bored.
It is the time where you sleep in till 12 and wait for that winter breeze to give you a runny nose and cough, so you have a excuse to stay in bed all day.
But then, winter can have its flaws although it is a beautiful season.
Crisp air, picture painted grey clouds and frosted glass.

Winter brings in the heavy and thick wooly jumpers Grandma knits you and makes you wear.
The heavy, black winter uniform your school thinks is attractive for the season.
The spare time you have at home, primarily left for sleep, but leaves your Mum harassing you to help her clean.

However, it does bring love. Love in winter is special.
Having the warmth of a person you love close is the quality element of winter.
Having someone to ski or ice skate with and both breath in that clean pristine fresh air, and giving you both rosy red cheeks, which makes you self conscious that you are blushing, which underneath that crisp white skin you are.
Having someone to cuddle up to by a fire with a quality hot chocolate.
But most of all, having that someone to share this season with.
Even if you don't, you can make it special, perhaps with a close friend or that someone who you've been eyeing off.

But however you spend your winter, the magical season, make it something to remember.
Because winter is the slow season and as soon as summer arrives those memories and times will move quicker than you can think of now, which will then bring you back to winter.

So make these moments last and take them slow.
Warm up, stay safe & celebrate winter.
