Three terrible things:
Not being able to do a favor for a really nice person.
Knowing that not doing that favor will affect dozens of people.
Wondering what sort of horrible impression I left for those dozens of people.
Photoshop does not equal painting by hand. There...

Day 18 - Plans/dreams/goals you have
Because Day 17 was technically yesterday! Goals for life? For the year? Or just right now? Besides make money, start a family, and save lives? I have plenty of goals. Not that I remember them all. Hmm…
Publish my books, share them with the world — and hopefully they’re super-amazing.
Have those books adapted into movies! Ha.
Make the Dean’s List every semester from now...
Day 17 - Someone you would want to switch lives...
Someone who’s going to see Paramore today. Really. They’re gonna be in Maryland. I’ve still never seen them before, after all these years. Russell is kind of blown.
Day 15 - Put your iPod on shuffle: First 10 songs...
My iPod’s broken. :D
@timohtee
Thanks dude! Yeah, I agree. Haha. We’ll start killin’ it in a couple of years. Maybe. Possibly. Potentially.
@anhella
I forgive you for making me trip, you ass. At least I tripped on time. Lmao.

Day 14 - A picture of you and your family
And I love this picture of my parents. Lmao.
Day 13 - A letter to someone who has hurt you...
Dear You,
I don’t get it. I don’t understand. Am I seriously not good enough? I mean, I know I had flaws here and there, but who wouldn’t have flaws? Am I supposed to be perfect? Did you just expect better from me? You have no idea how much of my time I sacrificed to satisfy your expectations. I stayed up for nights, fought the bags under my eyes. I know I had distractions, but...

Day 12 - How you found out about Tumblr and why...
Making up for a day I missed. I discovered Tumblr just over a year ago after looking at my friend Mish’s blog. It was clean, simple, and felt like no one really knew about it. It was kind of bland to me at first, but I started following these hilarious blogs, found out how to sexify my layout, and in no time I was hooked on it. I still love it. I like how my friends have one, too. I just...
Day 11 - Another picture of you and your friends
It was a bit sad trying to find decent pictures with some of my high school friends. They were all from so long ago. I’ve gotta catch up with ‘em when I can. Doesn’t help that I’m a Virginia kid now, either!
Day 10 - Songs you listen to when you are Happy,...
I actually don’t run to specific music when I’m happy or angry. And when I’m bored, I really just listen to whatever I want — and most are from Youtube videos. There aren’t any specific songs. But when I’m sad, I always, always, always listen to Christian songs. More specifically, I listen to songs I’ve listened to back when I found healing in certain...
What the hell is "swear on boys" and who thought...
I love getting one or two little words in response to my attempt at enthusiasm in a conversation! It shows that a person is so involved in what I have to say that they’re just speechless! And I can’t forget always being the one to say hello first — even after weeks! Gosh, they really trust me to be persistent in our friendship! These are my favorite types of people! They truly...
Day 09 - Something you’re proud of in the past few...
Being absolutely sure this time.
Day 08 - Short term goals for this month and why
Short term goals for this month? Isn’t that redundant? July is over in a week.
Finish my homework because it’s due tomorrow.
Do the laundry because I sweat in this weather now.
Make a choreo to O.M.G. for my mom’s performance next month because I pretty much have to.
Hang out with Angela Friday because I’ll rip off her jaw if I don’t.
Finish putting together Star...
Day 07 - A picture of someone/something that has...
Even though I love both of my parents, my mom has had the bigger impact on me. She’s the biggest reason why I’m silly all the time. She never stops checking up on how I’m doing, never quits when my school slacks on me. While my dad taught me respect, my mom taught me kindness. She taught me how to be safe; what good and evil were. She bakes an awesome blueberry cake....

Day 06 - Favorite super hero and why
Geeky-teenager-turned-superhero. I like his costume. I think it’s cool how he gets around Manhattan. He’s a photographer. He’s corny as hell. Spider-sense is pretty badass. He can climb on walls and shut people up by spitting webs at their faces. And I know more of his storyline than any other comic superhero.
Day 05- A picture of somewhere you’ve been to
Chicago! I wish we stayed longer and ventured around more. I hate being rushed when I’m trying to explore somewhere exciting. It’s like hurrying a child up when he’s running around Toys R Us. This makes me wish I could go to Conference this year. I’ve never even been to California, let alone the west coast. One day. And hopefully for more than one day — like seven...
I love it when I can still feel close to a friend, even if we haven’t contacted each other for weeks or months. There’s this established assurance that we can be friends regardless of time or change. But then there are cases where I might go days without speaking to one of my friends, and, for some reason, I begin to feel distant — like one of us, or both of us, are in neglect....
You upgraded in the wrong direction.
Day 04 - A habit that you wish you didn’t have
Procrastination.
I’ll write more about it later.
Day 03 - A picture of you and your friends

Math.
The surface of the Dead Sea has altitude 1299 ft below sea level. Vangie is flying 80 ft above that surface. How much altitude must she gain to clear a 3852 ft pass by 225 ft?
…WHAT!?
edit: Vangie’s definitely dead by now.
wildflowerfoxx asked: I didn't notice that you were following me, haha. But do you remember me? (:

Day 02 - The meaning behind your Tumblr name
rjfizz
Russell James Fizztuhhh. R. J. Fizz….”rjfizz”.
It also sounds like my own soda. Or if I was ever a rapper, that’d be my alias. Kind of looks like “rfjizz” to some people, but gosh, that’s just disgusting!
Jiggabillion Jots
“Jiggabillion” isn’t a real word. I made it up like two years ago because it sounded like a ridiculous...
Day 01 - A recent picture of you and 15...
I don’t care what y’all say — this pose was difficult as hell to achieve.
My last name is Fister because my great grandfather was adopted by Americans. My name would’ve been Russell Obregon.
I occasionally stutter because I talk faster than I make sense.
I know how to do terrifying things in Photoshop.
One of my favorite colors is turquoise.
I used to be really into...
Hoppin' on the train.

I think we should forgive more easily.
Or maybe not “easily” or “quickly” but…with an understanding? I can’t explain it in a sentence. I learned a few things these past months from both experience and observation, and one of these things pertains to forgiveness — specifically with mistakes others make. I guess in summary, I used to get angry whenever I found out a friend of mine did something...
I should try being straight up with my feelings for once. Like, instead of waiting last-minute. You never know. Really.
This goes to all fellow hesitating friend-zoners.

Today, my 23-year old boyfriend is not talking to me because I bought the regular kind of macaroni and cheese instead of the cartoon kind. FML

Just me and my crew doin our THaaaang.
