Only 167 days of school to go...

Well, this is post number two and now I have two followers! @gekkougaharramiaya Thanks for the follow!

As I am not quite sure where I want to go with this yet I decided to do the 100 Questions No One Ever Asks Challenge. I’ll be answering 10 a day for the next 10 days. I got this from http://4hatsandfrugal.com/2014/05/100-questions-no-one-ever-asks.html because internet and pinterest.

1. DO YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR CLOSET DOORS OPEN OR CLOSED?

Well my closet doesn’t have doors sooo.....open? I keep my bedroom door shut though.

2. DO YOU TAKE THE SHAMPOOS AND CONDITIONER BOTTLES FROM HOTELS?

Yes, I use them when I go to summer camps or on overnight school trips.

3. DO YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR SHEETS TUCKED IN OR OUT?

Both. I sleep with three quilts and my sheet tucked in as well as a Military blanket called a “Woobie” wrapped around me. I get very cold when I sleep, something about an Iron deficiency in my blood and my stubbornness against pills as well as living in Alaska.

4. HAVE YOU STOLEN A STREET SIGN BEFORE?

Nope. Too short for that kind of stunt.

5. DO YOU LIKE TO USE POST-IT NOTES?

YES! I like to stick them on things to remind me to do other things. Like my door will tell me to go do laundry and the fridge will tell me to do the dishes. Although I always feel kinda wasteful when I write simple things like that on them.

6. DO YOU CUT OUT COUPONS BUT THEN NEVER USE THEM?

Nope. Since stores are so far away whenever I get coupons they are expired before I go back to town. Instead I throw coupons away immediately. 

7. WOULD YOU RATHER BE ATTACKED BY A BIG BEAR OR A SWARM OF BEES?

A Bear of course. For any bear you should stay far away (300meters at least) If you do see a bear go the other way, but if the bear sees you make yourself as big as possible, talk in a low calm voice and back away slowly. Someone else in your group should prepare the bear spray, while that happens. If a brown bear (grizzly) charges you, hold your ground. It is most likely a bluff charge, if it is not just before it makes contact drop to the ground and play dead. If it starts eating you hit it. If a black bear charges you prepare the bear spray immediately and when it is close enough spray it. You can also throw rocks at it and just flat out fight it. This is because black bears think you are food while brown bears are either scared or curious. I have no idea how to avoid bees and am pretty sure I’m allergic.

8. DO YOU HAVE FRECKLES?

In the summer.

9. DO YOU ALWAYS SMILE FOR PICTURES?

Mostly, sometimes I make funny faces.

10. WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PET PEEVE?

People not being able to stay calm when you ask them to explain something personal. Ex. a belief system or moral value

The National Park Service manages more than 400 parks, monuments, and historic sites that touch just about every corner of the US. But while the National Park Service has been preserving the natural beauty and resources within these parks for nearly 100 years, it can only do so much when the climate in and around the parks is drastically changing.

Five Striking Examples of How Climate Change Is Affecting Our National Parks in the US

Happy 100th anniversary, National Park Service! Let’s continue to protect our precious environment.

How not to start a Blog 101

Today was the first day of my high school senior year and so as I sit in bed thinking that I should go to sleep instead I decided to start a blog.

Not my greatest idea but we’ll see where this goes.

After reading roughly two (exactly two) internet posts on how to start a blog, I decided to ignore them because I didn’t want it to be too structured yet. Especially since my only follower, @cookiejar-raider , is my friend. 

I guess to start I’ll tell this vast space about my username.

It seems like a cool idea, the splatter left by stardust. Nah man, that’s too deep. It’s the names of two of my instruments. I name all of my instruments because once you have three guitars (well one isn’t a “guitar” but my parents don’t care) you need something a bit more distinguishing when talking about them. 

My fretless bass is named Splatter because of it’s black body and red spatter paint pick guard. Real original aren’t I? Splatter was given to me by one of my bestest friends, who sadly has started college without me this year. He gave it to me just before he moved away in 2014 because he couldn’t take it with him. Even though he moved away awhile ago we’ve stayed in contact through the power of the internet.

My first (and only so far) electric guitar is named Stardust because it’s body is kinda teal with a black glitter pick guard. The glitter made me think of pixies but pixie dust sounded like drugs and I was taking an Astronomy class at the time so Stardust it is. I bought this one :). 

And because I mentioned it my third guitar is named Maple. Its an old beat up acoustic I got off of craigslist because no one near me sells good guitars cheep. I have no clue if it’s made of maple or not but Maple was the street the person I bought it from lived on. 

Not quite sure how to end a post yet. sooooo

Randomly,

[ragecomics4you]

This just struck my mind when I was watching the movie with my younger sister

[stardustsplatter-blog]

because in the original story when the Prince saw her getting away instead of yelling “Hey Wait” or something like that he told his guards to pour tar on the stairs so he could catch her.
