Wreck This Journal Standstill for Wusses

Wreck This Journal Standstill for Wusses Here we are, week 6 of Wreck This Journal, and Im at such a breaking point right now. OK, maybe not a breaking point, but kind of a standstill. A standstill for wusses. Ive discovered that I am so embarrassed to do anything weird public with the journal (like walk it)- or even ask someone to wreck it for me (like one page instructs) that I just completely, uh, stopped wrecking. For a week. A week! Thats why there was no entry last week, although I came up with various excuses that consciously convinced me that they were the real reason I wasnt wrecking (although subconsciously I knew better). So Im still on the safe pages, like the ones I wrecked this week (which cant even be all pretty like they usually are, because Picnik is stinking today wont compress my photos! Grr!): Even though the stamp page has been covered, its way too neat orderly for me. I have a feeling that Im gonna keep piling on the stamps until were officially done at the end of the month. I could not figure out how to cover the hole at the bottom of my funnel, so the water kept pouring through. I finally stuck my pinky finger in there, filled it up, drank the water as quickly as possible before it all spilled out. I think I probably drank a quarter of what I poured in there. I was such a water chaser. I never put my jeans in the dryer (unless Im not interested in eating or breathing the next day), so I had to dry my page on the drying rack. I liked having it there. I have so many random items in my purse that I decided to limit myself to the garbage that was in there. As you can see, I had a cold recently practically live on Orbit gum. I really like the empty pack of gum that I glued on the left page, since it sticks out of my journal makes it look extra wrecky. Now dont get me wrong, dear readers fellow wreckers I am having fun with my wrecking! But, I hate to say it, Im getting bored. I want to go outside rub the journal in the dirt! I want to live by my Wreck This Journal mantra of Make a Mess, Michelle do it for the world to see. OK, that last part is a lie, but I do want to take this to another level I have to get over this shyness (which Ive never experienced before ever. Really. Not once). So Im going to promise you this: this week, Im going to make myself do whatever page I turn to. Im not allowed to pick choose this week! Thatll show me.
