Does anyone ever get that feeling that you're wasting your life away? That's how I've been feeling lately. I don't want to look back on my childhood and have no memories that stand out. I don't want to just get through it. I want to make an impression on the world! But how....
1. I want to start volunteering and giving my money to charities.
2. Telling my friends about Jesus--this is the hardest thing on my list. Cuz nobody but nobody wants to hear about that.
3. Live more in the moment.
4. Apologize to those who are mad at me for various reasons.
5. Forgive those who I am mad at for various reasons.
6. Tell people how I feel before it's too late.....ugh I hate talking about feelings!!!!
7. Become more active in my church.
And that's it. Now let's see if I can stick to these things......

A Few Changes....
to pretty up my bloggiddy blog. And, also, if you will note the new and improved title. It is, if I do say so myself, completely fitting and amazingly perfect in every way.
A faux pas is a violation of accepted social rules (for example, standard customs or ettiquette rules). The word comes originally from French, and literally means "false step".
This definition is everything that I feel Christians are called to be. We are called to be set apart. We are to be "in the world, but not of the world." We are to break down the walls and confinements of every-day life, and to rise above the petty frivolities of this place, because we are the treasured children of the Most High God. Jesus was a faux pas in everything he did; so we should be too.
This blog will be taking a new direction. It will be less of my daily routine, and more of my observations, ideas, and truths that we are all surrounded by.
I love you all!
Yours most sincerely,
Megan

Intersting Experiences
In the past few day, I have:
1. Been called multiple times by a creepy old man who called me babe and hon.
2. Been talked to by a creepy drunk old man at a festival (he asked me if I was drinking, and when I told him I was only thirteen he goes "Oh you look older. Who are you here with?" Like no I don't! I'm short!)
3. Listened to this one kid my age tell me, "I smoke weed, but it's okay, because you can't die from weed." Yea, because who cares about your teeth rotting out of your head, learning problems, loss of motor coordination and increased risk of cancer? Pshaw.
4. Met a 7th grader named Austin who wanted me to ride in his pumpkin. (It's a ride. I told him that that sounded really disgusting.)
5. Read Eclipse for the billionth time.
So yes. My life is litterd with creepy old men sightings and creepy young men sightings. I'm starting to think that's the only type of men there is.
Favorite Songs of the Moment:
1. Break Even by The Script
2. Love Drunk by Boys Like Girls
3. Good girls Go Bad by Cobra Starship
4. Hey Stephen by Taylor Swift
5. Party in the USA by Miley Cyrus
Songs I'm Ready To Kick Out the Door And Never See Again
1. Boom Boom Pow by The Black Eyed Peas
2. I Got a Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas
3. Poker Face by Lady Gaga
4. Use Sombody by Kings of Leon (I have loathed this song from the beginning, and I am in shock that anyone likes it at all. I must conclude that the general population have been brainwashed into thinking that things like Kings of Leon and The Black Eyed Peas are actually entertaining.)

The Bachelorette (SPOILERS)
NO WAY. I really thought that she would pick Kipton! He was so perfect. SO perfect. Instead she picked Ed, who I also love, but....Kipton. She broke his poor heart. But then again, Ed was so in love with her...I'm conflicted. Also, I felt so bad for Reid, who "pulled millions of strings" to come back, tell her Jill he loved her, propose, and....get rejected. It was so sad. On the plus side: Kip is pack on the market! Woot woot! I just can't wait for the After the Rose Ceremony tonight, there is sure to be drama.
School starts on the 11th, but I still have one last vacation. I'm leaving on the 1st for Norris Lake to wakeboard and relax. *sigh* I can't wait.
You Know You Love Me,
Megan

To The Blogging World
Let me begin by reassuring you that no, I have not dropped off of the face of the earth. Just the face of blog world. I wish I could say that I have been busy, but I haven't, not really. I was at camp for a week, but that is no excuse.
The only thing I have to say in defense of myself is this: I like to blog as my escape from every day life. When I have nothing to do all day, there's not really much to take a break from. So starting August 12, which is when I go back to school, I will blog a lot more.
I saw Harry Potter 6 (SPOILERS AHEAD). I was extremely disappointed. It did not contain many of my favorite elements of the book, like the battle at the end, Kreacher, the conflict between Mrs. Weasley and Fleur, memories from Tom Riddle's past, Dumbledore using his second in which he could have defended himself to stun Harry.....there was hardly any mention of horcruxes until the end! It's saving grace was that it was funny. I thought it was by far the funniest Harry Potter movie so far, especially when Ron drank the love potion and Harry drank the Felix Felicis.
If you're a Potter fan, then of course you should see it just to say you did. But don't expect much, go in knowing that it won't meet your expectations. But again, it was very funny.
You Know You Love Me,
MR

TAGW
This is all I'm in the mood to do.
1. Never act different around her when your friends are there (ie. don't act "cool" and distant).
2. Hug her from behind around the waste.
3. Tell her she's beautiful.
4. Chivalry is not dead! Open doors, pull out chairs, pay for dinner and the like.
5. If it seems like somethings wrong, ask her. If she denies it, then she doesn't want to talk about it! Just hug her.
6. Kiss her in front of other girls that you know.
