- Bio
- I am a freelance writer and blogger. My goal is to one day end Big Media and "raunch culture" as we know it. If I have friend requested you, it is because I want you to join my revolution to bring back what REAL beauty is about. I am about increasing the self-esteem and self-respect of young women and girls; spreading the word that they do NOT have to meet the unrealistic ideals that they see splashed all over the media. They are beautiful exactly they way they are. They also must never be afraid to show they are intelligent. Don't fall into the trap of having to dumb yourself down to get a guy to like you. YOU alone teach people how to treat you. Teach them to respect you. At the end of the day, your dignity and your integrity is all you have. You are not merely decorative!

Write a Letter to Yourself
Day 31: Epilogue: Write a letter to
yourself.
Last day of the 30 day challenge, even though it took a few months for me to get through :)
Dear Katie,
Stop with the self-deprecating crap. Seriously. It isn't endearing, it's just annoying.

No A/C!!!
Our freakin' air conditioner broke. I cannot explain how
pissed off I am about it. I have no idea how my Dad is going
to fix it, but my best guess is that this air conditioner is just
too old and it's time for a new one.

Update 7-25-2012
There's a violent stomach bug that Lexi brought home this weekend
and I'm just getting over it. I'm still weak from it even though I
managed to walk to the store to get Gatorade. I'll be gone
the rest of the week.

seven that are detestable to him:

a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.“
