100 Fears

~ Brooke F. ~ Leave a comment

From the list below count how many things you’re afraid of, then see the chart at the bottom.

[] the dark (Confession, I super was when I was little, and even then I knew it was ridiculous but I’d think myself into being scared. Not so much anymore though)
[] staying single forever (I think it would be fine. I could have pasta for breakfast and no one would judge me)
[x] being a parent (maybe a little, but more so the responsibility that comes with it.)
[x] giving birth (the paaaaain. Movies definitely don’t help this fear. And every time you talk to a mother they’re like; “Yah it was horrible I felt like I was dying” so definitely scared of pain. It hurts me.)
[] being myself in front of others (They know I’m weird)
[] open spaces
[x] closed spaces (sort of. Mcdonald’s play places anyone?)
[] heights
[] dogs
[] birds (?)

[] fish (also ?)
[x] spiders (YOU BET. Nothing should have eight legs. Nothing should have eight anything. (sorry families of eight). It also has eight eyes! A double whammy.)
[] flowers or other plants (OH NO IS THAT A BUTTER CUP???)
[] being touched (haha mood some days. But not exactly scared of it)
[] fire
[] deep water
[] snakes
[] silk
[] the ocean
[xxxxxxx] failure (Maaaaaaybeeee a litttlleee)

[] success (How??? Why???)
[] thunder / lightning (No way, thunder and lightning are nature’s fire works.)
[] frogs / toads (ugly but not scared)
[] my boyfriends / girlfriends dad
[] boyfriends / girlfriends mom
[] rats (They’re nasty but I don’t know if I’m scared of them)
[x] jumping from high places (bingo)
[] snow
[] rain (I’m sorry, what? Rain is so relaxing??)
[] wind

[] crossing hanging bridges
[] death (“You cannot kill me in a way that matters”)
[] heaven (wut?)
[] being robbed
[] falling (I think so. You know those drop towers at parks? I went on one once and got sick so never again)
[] clowns (They creepy but I don’t think I’m scared of them. I don’t exactly see how they’re supposed to be funny either?)
[] dolls
[x] large crowds of people (sometimes)
[] men
[] women

[x] having great responsibilities (Oops)
[] doctors, including dentists
[] tornadoes
[] hurricanes
[] incurable diseases
[] sharks
[] Friday the 13th
[] ghosts (Okay, I don’t even believe in ghosts but like every time in the shower and I have soap all over my face & I can’t open my eyes, I can’t help think there could be a demon right in front of my face I wouldn’t know. Like not seriously but occurs to me. Is that weird??)
[] poverty
[] Halloween

[] school
[] trains
[] odd numbers (How does that even work?)
[] even numbers (That’s odd)
[] being alone
[] becoming blind
[] becoming deaf
[] growing up
[] creepy noises in the night
[] bee stings

[x] dying completely alone (but then again, when it comes to death, aren’t we all alone? Can’t take nothing with us)
[x] needles (AHHHHH)
[] blood
[] dinosaurs (But they’re extinct, right? RIGHT???)
[] the welcome mat (uhhhh)
[] high speed
[x] throwing up (I HATE THROWING UP SO MUCH. I mean, nobody loves it, but I mean I super hate it.)
[] falling in love
[] secrets
[] flying in planes

If you get more than 30, you are basically terrified of everything. Chill out, its gonna be okay.

If you get more than 20-30, you are paranoid.

If you get 10-20, you are normal. (HEY! I’m normal!!)

If you get 10 or less, you are fearless.

If you get 0, you are a liar. 😛

Quarantine Bucket List Game

~ Brooke F. ~ Leave a comment

Intro to the game:

So, a Quarantine game for our friend group. It’s a bucket list of stuff to do over the course of the quarantine with points assigned to each task. Whoever gets the most points wins a huge pack of toilet paper or something.

-Find a pack of toilet paper (a whopping 100 points. Must have selfie of proof though)

-FaceTime another member of the group and complete a get to know you quiz comprised of at least 10 questions. (You can do this multiple times, just with different people) (40 points)

-prankcall another member of the group (30 points)

– make a trailer for the group (50 points)

-write a poem with this friend group as a prompt. (20 points)

-draw a portrait of another member of the group (no cheating-Stick figures are not allowed. Give full effort. Also, seeing as how there are multiple members in the group, I’m willing to let this be completed multiple times) (30 points)

-try a new recipe (double points if you style it like a baking show) (40 points)

-take the enneagram quiz and share your results. (10 points)

-make a playlist and share it. (15 points)

– write a letter and mail it to another member of the group. Double points if it’s in code and they have to crack. The receiver gets 40 points if they crack it. (Normal letter: 20 points, coded: 40 points. I am willing to let this one be done multiples but to different people.)

-Paint something (25 points)

-sprout a plant (50 points, picture required)

-learn a new skill (can be completed multiple times with proof of new skill, worth 20 points per skill)

-write a short story, involving this friend group (must be at least 600 words, and for the sake of fun, I’m willing to let this be completed multiple times. Point worth 25 points per story)

-bomb a member of the group with memes (10 points)

-leave a “secret package” at one of the others members house. (This one is hard so obviously is gonna be worth a lot. 200 points if you leave it personally, 100 if you mail it or get it there another way.)

-make a music video (25 points)

-give code names to all the members of the group and share it (10 points)

Rules and things to remember:

-You have two weeks. 

-Unless otherwise specified, you can do an item only once. 

-You are allowed to team up with People but only on specific tasks. Don’t just dominate everyone. 

-If you get your family to participate you get 10-20 extra points per family member as long as they aren’t participating in the games. 

-You are in charge of keeping track of your own points so be honest my friends 😉

-I suggest copy and pasting this into your phone notes for future use. 

Study Tips

Study tips ✨ 📚 

📖 put the phone down and away. Preferably where you cannot see it. Turn it on silent. 

📖 grab a snack and drink to keep by so you don’t have an excuse to randomly stop and get up. 

📖 get into your “studysona” who loves studying, is smart, and takes cute notes. 

📖 if you’re struggling with motivation, try and work on it for at least five minutes. Starting is usually a mental block in of itself.

 📖 get yourself excited with nice pencils and highlighters. You’ll find your brain can be easily bribed by such things. 

📖TAKE. NOTES. This helps you retain the important information plus you can go back and study on it later if you need to. 

📖 pick some music but just pick a soundtrack and go. Don’t get distracted or bogged down. 

📖And usually it helps to have songs with no words so you’re not tempted to sing along and get derailed as far as your concentration goes. 

📖personally, I recommend video game sound tracks as they are designed to help people focus. 

📖use flash cards for memorization oriented studying. 

Cool Websites

Cool Websites

For learning:

Sites that I recommend if you want to learn something new✨

Duolingo- a new language

Springhole.net – writing/life advice 

Khan Academy – nearly anything. Has computer coding, history, art, math. The possibilities are endless. 

Cook Smarts- cooking (kind of a duh)

Memrise- words and vocab 

Make- DIY projects. 

For fun:

Ambiance mixer – lets you create your own atmosphere using sounds. 

Boil the frog – great for finding new music. You type in two artists and it makes a musical bridge between the styles of music. 

Fantasynamegenerator – fun for procrastinating writers. 

Chaotic shiny – same as above. 

Dolldivine – quality dress up games because I’m secretly still 10 years old at heart. Don’t lie, dress up flash games are the bomb. 

Rinmaru games – also same as above. 

Hackertyper.com – just a dumb time waster but still cool. 

Dragoncave.net – collect little dragon eggs and hatch them. 

Water Adventures to be Had

~ Brooke F. ~ Leave a comment

Here are a few water related adventurous activities:

Canoeing 

Kayaking

Beach walking 

Swimming in a lake or ocean

Fishing 

Creek walking 

Swimming in a pool

Paint next to a body of water or even the scenery around said body of water. 

Or if you want to get real creative…

Picnicking in a boat. 

Reading in a boat 

Get a friend and send off a floating lantern in a boat, tangled style. You can buy floating lanterns online and they’re not that expensive. 

Have a water war

Throw a bottle with a note in it into the ocean. 

Paint or write in a boat. It’s incredibly relaxing. 

Learn a few sea shanties.
