Day 9.
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF?
Honestly, it kind of depends on the day. There are some days where I wake up, and I feel really good about everything. And there are days where I wake up, and feel like I could be doing so much more. Ultimately, though, I am quite content. I genuinely believe that I am a good person, and I feel like I am incredibly blessed to have the family and friends that make...
Day 8.
IF YOU COULD HAVE ANYONE NEXT TO YOU RIGHT NOW, WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY?
My dad. I miss him for all the reasons I never thought I would. And I would be able to tell him all the things that I’ve come to realize in the past few months that for some reason I never realized before. ♥
Day 7.
WHAT WAS ON YOUR LAST SHOPPING LIST?
Contact Solution
Hair Comb
Contact Lens case
Liquid Bandage
Toothbrush
Toothpaste
…Basically everything that I use on a regular basis and had stupidly left at Chris’. But on the bright side, I now have two of them, and don’t have to carry them back and forth anymore. w00t!!
Day 6.
WRITE A LETTER TO THE PERSON YOU’RE CLOSEST TO.
Dear Chris: You’re like…right next to me. ROFLMAO!!! Go away!!!!! Jk. Not. Sorta. I don’t even know what I’m saying anymore. Anyhoo, apparently I’m supposed to write you a letter. I don’t even know what to say at this point that you don’t already know. I love you, and I find it funny, yet cute to look...
Day 5.
WRITE A LETTER TO SOMEONE YOU’VE NEVER MET.
Dear Stranger: I know absolutely nothing about you, and you know absolutely nothing about me. I am only capable of changing one of these, so here I go. My full name is Ashley Marie (Catherine) Joyner. (Catherine) is placed is parenthesis because it is my Confirmation name, therefore, it doesn’t appear on any of my legal documents. As you...
Day 4.
WORDS YOU LIVE BY. WHY DO YOU LIKE THEM?
“Yesterday is done. Tomorrow has not yet some. I live for today, and today only. What lies behind me and what lies before me are tiny matters compared to what lies within me. Live, laugh, love.”
These words pretty much explain my life. No one is promised tomorrow, so it’s quite important to live out every day as though it is your last....
Day 3.
IS THE TRUTH ALWAYS GOOD TO HEAR? WHY OR WHY NOT?
I don’t know if “good” is the right word. In my opinion, the truth is always better than a lie. However, it’s not always EASY to hear the truth. Sometimes, the truth hurts. But ultimately, I’d rather have someone tell me a truth that’s hard to hear, than to be told a lie that’s easy to hear, only to find...
Day 2.
LIST TEN PEOPLE WHO YOU WOULD DIE FOR.
Dear Tumblr: You may not know this, but my family is quite literally the size of an army, and not necessarily a small one either. Plus, I have a sh*tload of friends that I may not be blood-related to, but are just as worthy of me sacrificing my life for them like my family is. So unfortunately, due to the size of my family, both blood and not, it is quite...

10 Ways To Win My Heart.
1) Make Me Laugh. Honestly, it’s not even that hard to do, and if you can’t do it, than you’re really whack.

10 Important People.
Yikes. Let’s be honest. My family alone is way too big to be limiting me to ten people. And then I have even way more friends that make up my second family. ALL OF THEM mean the world to me. And all of them have helped me out drastically in various ways throughout my years. So instead, I’ll just say thank you ten different ways. And for all of you that have helped me thus far, I love...

10 Things I Want To Say To One Person.
EDIT: I’m really going to write this as 10 Things I Want To Say To Ten Different People.
1) I’m really getting tired of you. Seriously, everyday, it’s the same thing. Over and over and over again. You’re stubborn, hard-headed, and in the end, you’re really gong to wish that you had just listened to me. You’re quite lucky I’ve got the patience of a...
10 Things I Hate.
1) CAULIFLOWER: Seriously, who decided that sh*t is edible? Because it really isn’t. It doesn’t matter how much cheese is slathered on that biieetch.

3) SPIDERS: Yuck.

10 Things I Love.
1) My iPhone. I hate to be materialistic, but I really do love this thing. I can’t remember a time before it, or rather, how I functioned without it. I do EVERYTHING on this thing. It’s ridiculous.
2) My kitties!!! It’s weird. I always said I was a dog person, and to be honest, I still am. But adopting Bella and Kouya has been one of the most awesome experiences ever. I...
10 Things About Me.

5) I have crooked pinkies. If I put them next to each other, they form a Y.
6) My...
