30 Day writing challenge … Day 17

17. Post about your zodiac sign, and do you think it fits you or not.

I have to say that whenever I read a description of what a “Taurus” is, I always find myself nodding along. Even the bad points. Like the stubbornness that Taurus’s are famous for. Oh, boy have I got that! Once I get something in my head, I can’t be stopped. Or if there’s something I REALLY don’t want too do. I find it SO hard to do it. Mentally, I really have to push myself.

The anger, I’ve got that too. But like a lot of descriptions say, it does take a lot to get us angry, but once we do…watch out! Which I think is the reason why I find social media hard to deal with. The stupid unkindness over things that should be common sense. Like people not understanding what the protests are about, the constant deflect. The purposely not “getting it”. They know why, they just want to “own the libs”. The gif is a very good representation of what happens in my mind when I get angry,lol

Taurus’s are also known for enjoying the “finer things in life” Although I freak out with anything fancy. Somehow, as an example, during a sale. I still manage to like the most expensive thing that’s on sale. I prefer hotels over camping,lol…I am not a camping girl. I’ll do it, but I hate it. I absolutely love caravans though. So while this one is kind of true, it’s more true in that I look for more practical things. I just seem to know “fancier” things without knowing that I know,lol

The other interesting that I agree with about Taurus’s, is that though we seems to have expense tastes. We absolutely LOVE to share, which is something that I love to do. Especially with food, I don’t enjoy cooking. But I love making and giving food to people. I always say to guest, if they stay especially. My only rule is that they can eat/drink whatever they want, just let me know if you finish it.

So both bad and good qualities, I’ve got them all. Of course there are exceptions to the rule. One thing, Taurus find it hard to cope with changes. Although I do and I don’t like it, if it’s something like changes at work. You HAVE to just suck it up,really. If it’s something like food, then I can be a bit more “I don’t like it”lol. I’m still not really like that though. It’s kind of where the stubbornness goes hand and hand together really.

Year of the Monkey – Cultural Love

I am a big believer learning from both the Western and Eastern cultures. I am also involved with healing activities that derive from the Eastern cultures. I also think one does need to know that there is nothing wrong with bringing Eastern and Western medicines and using them together. I think it might even be better than just using one all the time.

This Monday is the beginning of the Chinese New Year. With the Chinese culture each year is represented by one of twelve animal signs. This year is the Year of the Monkey. The Monkey is the ninth sign of the twelve year cycle. The origin of the Chinese New Year follows very closely to Astrology. I’ve found that with all different “Beliefs” they are often very similar and lot of them promote love and togetherness. As humans tend to do though, a lot like the game Chinese whispers, people interpret how they want to interpret the words that are written. Losing a lot of the original meaning.

Years of the Monkey include 1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004, 2016, 2028…

Lucky Signs for Monkey:

Lucky Numbers: 1, 7, 8
Lucky Colors: white, gold, blue
Lucky Flowers: chrysanthemum, alliums
Lucky Directions: north, northwest, west

So I read this post at: https://vrushali21.wordpress.com/2016/01/21/tmi-tag/comment-page-1/#comment-1109 Shared by the very lovely Vrushali21 and I thought “why not” I’m not really sure what and how much you all know, so here’s some more about me =P

Oh, absolutely.
Have you ever had a terrible break up?
All of my break ups have been fine, a lot of the times we’ve broken up because it was the “right” thing to do. However, the way they all treated me a couple of weeks later. That was the terrible part, I actually said to my last ex it felt like all of my ex’s had all just secretly hated me, that’s how horrible they were. I still can’t understand it.

You should never ask someone that! My weight honestly has been going up and down a bit, especially when I hurt my leg and basically was doing nothing but sitting for a month.

Nope, I would really like one though. I know though I would get bored though and getting the tattoo off would be costly and apparently the lasers used to get them off are really painful.
Any piercings?
One on each ear.
OTP?
It’s funny, I like putting couples together from different television shows or from the same show but different characters. For example, Legolas and Arwen, River Song and Loki. I would have to say though at this moment I love Mary and Francis from the television show “Reign”.
Favorite Shows?
As mentioned above my favourite is probably Reign, but the other that I just love is Homicide Hunter, it has to be one of my favourites of all time.

I have no favorite songs. I love them all equally. (Ditto)

Red!
Loud or Soft Music?
Depends on my mood.
Where do you go when you’re sad?
I go to my room, or sometimes to the shower.
How long does it take you to shower?
It can honestly depends, sometimes I just need a quick 10 minute shower sometimes I can stay in there for a good hour.

Fears?
“Official” fears are Octopuses, those things are freaky creepy and are way too smart!
