Wow...this is the 100th post on this blog. O_O Too bad I don't have anything exciting to write.
Anyways, here's a blog that my gals and I have!
Blogggg!
I encourage you to read and FOLLOW!! :D
Oh yeah, earlier today I played volleyball for the first time in MONTHS! My knees and ankles and forearms hurt soooo bad! I felt like a fat cow while playing, because I was getting out of breath. In volleyball. Volleyball is a sport in which you shouldn't get out of breath in. -_-
Okay, that's all I got for you. I'm boring, I know. :D
Love,

Two Groups...
Two groups. You have the group of the "cliquey" ones, and the ones who don't go with the flow.
The clique. They talk about people behind their backs, they bring each other down, they make fun of other people and all they do is see the bad in people. They can make anything you say sound perverted. They groan when somebody they don't particularly like walks towards them. But, nonetheless, they're the popular ones, for whatever reason.
The fun ones. They talk about how much they miss people they haven't seen. They talk about how nice other people are. They have fun in all innocence. They lift each other up and pray for each other. They're always willing to give a hug or are always there if you need someone to talk to.
Which ones will you choose to hang out with? The ones who you have to worry about being talked about once you leave, or the ones who try to make people laugh and feel included?
I was kind of shocked tonight, because I never realized that I was faced with peer pressure until tonight.
I hate how people divide into their own group of friends. That's usually why, when I'm with a lot of people, I don't stay with the same people the whole time. I don't like being "cliquey", because where there are cliques, there are ALWAYS people who are left out. Always.
Sincerely,
Kirstin

"Be Mine?"
Valentines Day - The day in which couples flourish and singles feel like they've been smacked in the face by society.
I'm not gonna lie, I hate Valentines Day. I'm sure one day when I have a man, then I'll look forward to it...but right now, I have no possible reason to enjoy it. Not once have I ever had anything special happen on Valentines Day, so basically it's just another day. A day where the word "single" stands out.
Last night I was on facebook and there was a page that someone "liked" and it had the word "single" in it twice. I didn't even notice it then. This morning I get up, check my facebook, and as I was scrolling down past all the "Happy Valentines Day, to my sweet ____" posts, when I see that like page, those two words "single" STOOD OUT. -_- Figures...
I saw one post that made me laugh because of it's corniness. It was a post by the singer of Owl City, Adam Young. It says "Me: 'Whale you be my valentine?' You: 'Dolphinitely.'" A little cheesy I admit, but it's cute.
I mean of course I could write something like, "Well I'm happy being single, I'm totally fine flying solo" and that's true on most days. Today on the other hand, if I said that, then it would be a lie.
To all you couples out there, enjoy it. To all the singles, Happy Single Awareness Day!

Heeere, Kitty Kitty!
I am so terrible at keeping up with this blog. But hey, look! Kitty! ^_^
This is the cutest kitty ever! :D He belongs to my brother and his girlfriend! This cat has personality like no other! He is totally spoiled in every way! Don't believe me? Right now he is laying beside me with a fuzzy blanket covering him, while twitching and smacking his lips in his sleep! Now I'll admit, I'm the one who put the blanket on him, but only because he's injured! His back right paw is injured, so he's limping around! :( Poor baby! So do it. Call me a crazy cat lady. I don't care. I simply have a liking for the cute little animals that God made to be that way!
This cat is one of FEW who actually like me. He's my little buddy! :D I'll pick him up and put him next to me on the recliner, and he'll stay there! That's RARE, folks! RARE for Tucker cats!
See? Isn't he cute? ^_^ *squeal*

Today Was Different
Two sites I've been to today have changed the way I think about myself and how I think about other people. They show little entries that random people write. The two sites present two different things.
http://www.givesmehope.com/ is a website that shows little instances that people have in everyday life that gives them hope. The smallest act of kindness can change a life. It could be as simple as smiling to someone, or giving them a small compliment.
http://www.sixbillionsecrets.com/ is a website where people go and tell secrets. Not all of them are posted, just ones that are effective. The "Self-Esteem" section was the one I mainly focused on because I have self-esteem issues myself. There are so many girls on there who cut themselves, are anorexic, bulimic, or suicidal, and they think nobody cares about them. There are many who said that they just wish someone would notice. I admit that I cried reading some of the things on there.
Today I'm making decisions. I'm going to stop putting myself down all the time. I'm going to pay attention to the needs of people around me. I'm going to look for something beautiful in everyone. Because really, the world needs more teenagers like that.

Fooood!
So I feel totally weird now that I have 12 followers. O_o It's like I'm being watched. Oooh creepy!
ANYWAYS, there's a new poll that I came up with because I'm hungry right now and all I can think about is food. So vote please! :D I'm interested to know your answers!
That concludes this extremely boring post because Kirstin is lacking brain power.

Idols
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me."
What is the chief thing that most teenage girls talk about and think about today? Boys, without a doubt. God has been showing me many of the idols in my life, and one of them was boys, which is really stupid if you think about it.
Since then, my thought time invested in boys has been very scarce. I believe that if God has someone for me, he'll show me when the time is right. That's a comforting thought since I now know that I don't have to be constantly wondering "Is HE the one?" because I have confidence that God will reveal him to me when the time comes. I don't have to go through all the wrong ones to get to the right one. Until that time comes, God is more than enough for me. I'll enjoy the time I have with God without having any boys serving as a distraction. I don't mean that I'm going to never ever think of any guy friends that I have, but that I'm going to have them as friends and in my mind they are going to stay just friends, nothing more.
Another idol God has brought to my attention was facebook. Oh, the website that people can spent countless hours on, doing absolutely nothing of importance. I'm going on a facebook fast for this week, and even just after one day, I've realized how much time I spend on there. Ugh, Facebook shmacebook!
