It's 
baseball season!
Time for the Monday Memes.
to all! 
Baseball season has begun! 
1. Would you rather impress or influence others? Why? Which do you tend to do more than the other? I think I impress more than influence. I think I would rather influence because it means a part of me will develop in others.
2. Are you able to admit your weaknesses to others? How do you handle your weaknesses (Can you accept them and see them as a strength? (Do you strive to overcome them? etc.) I try to hide my emotional and mental weakness unless I know the only way to advance is to admit I don't know something. As for physical weakness, not afraid to admit it.
3. How do you react when you are bossed around, treated as inferior or taken advantage of? :rollseye: Don't ask! Why do you think I got fired. Because I wouldn't kiss someones precious ass!
4. Do you live your life to meet your own needs, or do you live to meet the needs of others? Why? I wish I knew. I don't know the answer to this one.
5. This is your Mission on Mondays, but what is your mission in life? I wish I knew again. 
6. Can you focus on your goals and achieve them, or are you sidetracked by minor distractions along the way? Well, right now, my goal is to pass trig. It's coool at the moment.
7. When was the last time you cried? What were you feeling at that moment (anger, sadness, etc.)? Why bother asking me this question? I cry a lot for different reasons.
BONUS: Who can it be knocking at my door? Michael Jackson?

Monday Mission:
1. Would you rather impress or influence others?
*My wit impresses people but it's my drive that I hope positively influences them. Predisposed to a life behind bars or on the street, I chose instead to create my own path--one that required making healthy choices every step of the way. I'm driven to shatter those predispositions, not just for me but for all abused kids or anyone else who was dealt the wrong hand in life. I don't ever want to hear anyone say, "There's no use in trying."
2. Are you able to admit your weaknesses to others? How do you handle your weaknesses (Can you accept them and see them as a strength? (Do you strive to overcome them? etc.)
*When I am wrong, I will be the first to admit it. As for weaknesses, I don't really show that to anyone, not even my psychologist.
3. How do you react when you are bossed around, treated as inferior or taken advantage of?
*Well, I've always had "Oppositional Defiant Disorder". I think you can infer a lot from that. What I really hate though is people who can't be honest with me, such as someone I thought all this time was a good friend. I hate being treated like I'm fragile and can't handle brutal honesty.
4. Do you live your life to meet your own needs, or do you live to meet the needs of others? Why?
*To meet my own. You're happiest when you are self-fulfilled. Only then can you meet the needs of others.
5. This is your Mission on Mondays, but what is your mission in life?
*I think y'all know that by now.
6. Can you focus on your goals and achieve them, or are you sidetracked by minor distractions along the way?
*I'm very focused on my goal and I'm deadset on achieving it.
7. When was the last time you cried? What were you feeling at that moment (anger, sadness, etc.)? *I have such a hard time letting myself feel sadness about anything I might be going through. I just can't seem to do it! I can however get all teary eyed during Animal Precinct or by reading the stories on two of my favorite sites, pbrc.net (Pit Bull Rescue Central) and rabbit.org(House Rabbit Society).
BONUS: Who can it be knocking at my door?
*I dunno but if you get the butterfly, you can filter them and keep 'em all from bothering you. Sign up for MSN 8 today.
