- Lose some pounds! Lots of people have made this resolution, I'm actually doing pretty good, though! I've lost eight pounds so far, and I've only been dieting for like a week!
- Be nicer and more positive! Okay, so this really doesn't count as a resolution since I just decided it was necessary today, but I believe as a person I should really start being nicer, and an overall positive person. Not that I'm generally not too nice or positive, but I have my days. . .
- Does this color show up? I think it does! I only have three resolutions this year, and my final one is to be more hard-working. And I don't mean as far as actually working, I mean being consistent in life and working hard to remember to brush my teeth twice daily, and all those kinds of things. Generally, I'm not a very consistent person. I'm going to make an effort this year to be more consistent and cleanly!
Okay, so if any of you feel so inclined you can respond in a comment with your own resolutions! (Are there comments?)
Anyways, on to the blog!
What say you about beauty?
I understand that beauty seems to be in the eye of the beholder. So, considering 2010 is my year of positive changes, I thought I'd ask a Yahoo! Answers question to find out what other people find lovable in their significant others... this is what they said:
- Big Breasts (I don't agree with this one, necessarily)
- An awesome sense of humor! This was a big one as far as answers went, I think out of a total of about 13 answers, half of the people thought this was crucial. I agree!
- Confidence! You can't love someone who doesn't love themselves.... I believe that you can love who ever you want... a little lack of self confidence is cute sometimes!
- Good personal hygiene- obviously.
- Compassion and overall kindness: Definitely agree with this one. What is the point of a relationship at all if you're trying to be happy with a cold, hard jerk?
- Intelligence. This is probably the one thing that I find most important in a person, but seriously, I don't think that if you're a genius that gives you an excuse to be mean or cocky.
- Versatility and independence... also, depth. <3
- A decent body. Not too skinny, not obese. <-- I can honestly say that to me this one doesn't matter, it's all in personality and hygiene for me.
- Decent social skills. This might go against my 'be nice' resolution, but when I read this I was like "Well... duh!" I mean, you can't exactly get into a relationship with a person if they won't say more than 10 words to you!
- Honesty and dependability.
- Loyalty... goes with honesty, does it not?
- Someone who takes the time to notice the little things and remember details. In my opinion, this makes someone really beautiful. Most people overlook the little things, they don't realize that often times those are the most important! If you remember my Grandma's name I'm 10x more likely to fall in love with you than if you remember that I love basset hounds!
- Someone who stands up for their beliefs... maybe I just like arguing on occasion, but this one is super important to me.
- Patience.
- Hard-working and ambitious. Well, I like people who just have passion and are driven toward something. Definitely don't like slackers.
- Passionate about something. Yep, this one was all me... actually, I think one person who answered wrote this.
- Sweet and romantic gestures. Are cute, but Edward Cullen overdoes it.
- Respectful.
- Good-hearted.
- Accepting and open-minded. This is absolutely the most important thing to me... have I said that already? :D
So what say you? What is beauty to you? Do you think people who are smart and charming and awesome are beautiful, even if they're not physically attractive? I say physically attractive because the word 'hot' reminds me of satan.
Or are you one of the people who think physical attractive-ness is absolutely essential to maintain a decent relationship?
HAVE A HEART. THE COMMENTS ARE LONELY.
