Two posts in one night... must be that glass of wine.. *g*

I saw this meme around the place last week and it's an easy one.

It's aimed for lurkers... BUT... I like that it's for non lurkers also...

It goes like this:

Today (well, last week I think..) has been declared lurker amnesty day! Have you read me but never commented? Do you surf by occasionally? Here for the fic or vids? Say hello. You are under no obligation to ever comment or delurk again, but here's a chance to do so in a post just for that.

Or if you’re here and we haven’t spoken in a while and you want to catch up or just say, “Hi”

I’m also doing a TWIST. Please choose from the following three things to share with me. Or all of them!

1. If there was one thing you could change about the world what would it be?
2. If money was no object what would be your ideal holiday?
3. What have you done that has made you proud of yourself?

Me first...

1. Reduce the ridiculous about of waste in the world.
2. Tropical island holiday. Crystal blue water, white sand, serenity and full body massages whenever needed. *g*
3. If you know me (or seen my posts on the subject) , you know what that is for me. (achieving set goals if you haven't...)

Ok. Your turn. I really am interested to know this stuff from you guys - even if it's just one. So go!! De-lurk... I honest to god, won't bite. Or just pop in and say hi..... <33

I'm doing the twist thing... *g*

1. If there was one thing you could change about the world what would it be?

I would change the inequal distribution of wealth.


2. If money was no object what would be your ideal holiday?

My ideal holiday would be a combination of sipping cocktails on an island in Bora Bora with sled dogging in Lappland with a cruise in the Bahamas and visiting each of the worlds best rollercoasters.


3. What have you done that has made you proud of yourself?

Hmmm... I would have to say staying in a hard to staff school, with difficult clientele and succeeding with the some of the students I teach...plus my achievements in agility and softball.

[ash48.livejournal.com]

1... I agree. It is also ridiculous.

2. Hee! Oh yay... the best of every holiday! (my hubby would totally go the best rollercoaster holiday. Me? I cry like a baby on those things. Well, that and swear A LOT!)

3. YAY YOU! There's nothing quite like reaching those hard to teach kids. :)

Ah, you totally share my world rollercoaster tour dream! One of these days...

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

I JUST WANTED TO SAY HAAAAIIII :D

Hm...ok.
1. I don't really know. I agree with you. But I think I would also change the economical situation.
2. I would go somewhere where I really want to go and spend money? lol I AM THAT SHALLOW /o\
3. I've read all three LotR books before the third movie came out *__*

[ash48.livejournal.com]

HAAAAIIII gorgeous! <33

1. Oh man.. the economical situation...that's a friggin' mess!

2. You and my daughter can go together! She told me today that if she could go to America it would be to shop! :)

3. LMAO!! Well done YOU! I read the first one ... and... well... that was it... \o/

*smish*

[secretlytodream.livejournal.com]

*waves* Hi Ash - I just want to say I love your vids and everything else you do - I've only recently friended you so I'm not really a lurker, just new to your journal, and I love it so much.

hmmm your questions...

#1. If I could change anything about the world it would be for all the hate that people have for each other to go away. I wish we could all live happily and not discriminate towards race, creed, color or sexual orientation. To each his own; live and let live.

#2. If money was no object, I would take a holiday around the world to all the wonderful places out there - every continent has it's own specialness with unique and special people.

#3. What I've done that makes me proud of myself...I have raised to wonderful sons and I help people in my work.

Thanks for this...with the mood I'm in today this has helped me appreciate my life more and want to stop bitching about it.

<333

[ash48.livejournal.com]

1, Oh yes. Very much indeed. All the constant hate makes no sense to me.

2. That would be fabulous indeed.

3. Yay... raising children is (I think) one of the hardest things to do. There's no manual for that one...

Hi, thanks for saying hi. Thanks for your lovely comment also. I'm glad you like my vids and stuff. :D :D

(lovely icon..*hearts*)

I'm not exactly a lurker, but I am new so...

1. There's a gazillion things I'd change, but one of them is using natural resources responsibly. Ideally, we'd stop the population explosion and be able to convert renewable resources into energy, like solar energy or poop or something.

2. World rollercoaster tour. Oh yeah. (Rides other than rollercoasters are also acceptable as long as they're cool.)

3. Going to law school. It was the scariest decision of my life, but it's probably one of the best things I've ever done (I love it here, yay!).

Also, hi!

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hi!

1. Yes. Yes!

2. Oh wow. You too huh? I mentioned above my hubby would be totally into that. I am a complete scaredy cat when it comes to those. Man, I break out a sweat on a ferris wheel. I hope you get a chance to do that one day... so much fun!

3. Oh wow. Law school... That would indeed be scary, but fantastic too I imagine. Good for you! \o/

Thanks for dropping in. <333

[heartlessbytchh.livejournal.com]

Can I lurk and stalk you too?
*snark* *hugs you* ;P
1. The one thing I'd change in the world if I could would find a cure and/or vaccine for Nisseria B. meningitis so no more children would die from it.

2. My ideal holiday would be all of my local and internet friends from all of my internet communities on vacation with me on my private tropical island. We'd be doing all kinds of cool activities like snorkeling, fishing, diving, boating, dancing, and lying on the beach or in hammocks with Sammy and Dean as our Cabana Boys bringing us frou frou drinks in pineapples or coconut shells as we listen to some kickass music.

3.I'm proud of myself for being true to what I believe about myself. Even when it would've been easier to just roll over and take it up the wazoo. I stuck by what I thought was right. No regrets. I'm good.

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hee! You can lurk and stalk as much as you like sweetie...

1. Agreed.
2. Oh WOW! How much fun would that be?! *dreams*
3. *hugs* Good for you. <33

Thanks for stalking popping in hun.

O HAI.

1. I would like global poverty to be history.
2. Oh man, my best friend and her husband are in London right now and I would love to be with them.
3. Wrote a novel in 31 days.

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hi honey!

1. The disparity between the wealthy and those living in abject poverty never ceases to amaze and sadden me.

2. Yay! London..
3. Wow... 31 days... that's incredible. Go you!

<333

[phoenix39.livejournal.com]

Thanks. It was for NaNoWriMo and I was a day late.

[tiniowien.livejournal.com]

Do I lurk? I think I do so here's a glomp!tackle just for fun.\o/

1. If there was one thing you could change about the world what would it be?
I'd change the hate people seem to harbour against anything that appears different, scares them or that they don't understand.
2. If money was no object what would be your ideal holiday?
Ohh man I'd go to Egypt. Always wanted to see the pyramids.
3. What have you done that has made you proud of yourself?
I decided on things and followed them through. They weren't earth-shattering or impressive to anyone else apart from myself perhaps, but it was the fact that I set myself goals, worked my butt off to afford them and damn well did what I had set out to do. _{For one example... *points to icon* Years ago I decided that I wanted to meet Orlando Bloom and so I hopped on a plane and went to say hi, brought along a prezzie for his dog, had an absolute blast, managed to take home several magazines and a Swedish newspaper we had appeared in and even received a letter from him thanking me for coming. To this day it sits on my bookshelf and I look at it sometimes when I'm going through a rough patch to remind myself that anything can be done and that sometimes... they turn out even better than expected. :)}

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hey there! Not so lurky... which is great.. *smish*

1. Yes indeed. So much of this in the world. :(
2. That would be totally cool... Shame Egypt is going through such turmoil at the moment.
3. Oh, I love that story. How awesome! And I think setting goals and achieving them has to be one of the all times high in life.

Thanks so much for sharing. <3333

[tiniowien.livejournal.com]

Most welcome!

Goals = <3 really, and I think everyone goes through highs and slumps so it's wonderful to have things that inspire you and make you push through the slow times.

_{Comment infused by a little scotch and lots of flist love and spammy typing. Wheee! *g*}

Hi!

I really enjoy your vids and have been reading you for a while now, but been too shy to say anything.
Thank you for creating such awesome things!

1) Get rid off all forms of discrimination
2) Probably a round trip all over the world with a friend
3) Tiptoed out of my comfort zone

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hi there. Thank you so much for popping in. \o/

1. Indeed and if we could do that so many other wordly problems might be solved also.
2. That'd be awesome.
3. Good for you! :D

I'm so glad you de-lurked to say hi. And don't ever feel shy around me. I'm hopefully not toooooo scary.. :)
