So despite my saying I wasn't going to do bulk posts anymore, I'm going to finish off the 50 day challenge with the last two prompts so that I can get on with writing about other things (like my misadventures in the job hunting jungle).
Day 49: Hopes, dreams and plans for the next 365 days
Well, I guess I'll make a list since I like lists.
1) Find a job. At this point that means "any job" with the condition it isn't an hour away and doesn't pay total crap.
2) Become more fabulous every day.
3) Read more books!
4) Take better care of my fish, who are building up a high tolerance to bad water and will soon sprout legs and take over the world. Be nice to them so they don't hurt me.
5) Try and keep my room clean, which mostly means putting things back in my closet once I've taken them out and off their hangers only to realize that's not what I wanted to wear.
6) Woo the Wizard!
7) More sunglasses
8) Spend more time with my family (this mostly means Lara since I don't see the girl much)
9) Get a tan this summer. Even if it's just a little farmer's/fisherman's tan.
I think that's all I can think of that isn't some "be a better person" stuff.
Day 50: A letter to your reflection in the mirror.
Dear backwards me,
You're a hot mess at the moment because you rolled out of bed and got on the computer. By you I mean me, since you're just a reflection. Anyway, besides having outrageous bedhead and a line on your face from where your pillow was pushed up against your cheek, you look good! Since getting reacquainted with Amanda you've really changed who you are on the outside to reflect who you are on the inside. I guess the inner Megan has short hair and crazy clothes. But don't let anyone make you feel like what you look like is bad. Just remember how boring jeans and t-shirts were (not to mention a first impression was based solely on what was on that t-shirt) and how long it took to straighten your hair only to feel like it was boring and grody. SO be happy with who you are and how you look. People will not be jealous of you, because only you are crazy enough to wear some polyester thing from the 60s...but they'll be looking more out of curiosity than judgment. At least, that's what I keep telling me...and am now telling myself backwards. Besides the whole outer appearance thing, you're doing good becoming an adult! Dad even said the other day how you're really growing into your own person/adult woman self. Keep that in mind when the urge to do something comes before the actual thinking, since that tends to get us in trouble! Just remember our motto and as I was told once by a customer on a phone "you do you".

So that's it! That's all 50 prompts. It took me about 90 days...but I guess that's just demonstrative of how awesome I am at procrastination! I hope that whoever's been reading this has liked the posts. I won't be posting any updates on facebook after this, but I will be updating :)
Til next time (maybe tomorrow)
