  1. it was no simple whim of mine, i had waited for a long time to do this. the time spent preparing no longer felt wasted to me.

  2. I dislike whims. Even though I tend do to lots of things on a whim, they very rarely work out and I end up feeling miserable about them. Some people work well with them or just aren’t bothered by the consequences, but I’m more of a planner – I like knowing each step. i wish I was more carefree though.

  3. I did it on a whim, whimsical thing that is to do. Without a whimper…whilst I whistled and whittled away the time while making whimsies.

  4. Something I do on short notice. I love whims they are usually good decisions. Sometimes though I spend money on a whim. That never seems to pan out. My wife doesn’t like whims she would rather plan. Whims are what is in your gut, usually a good feeling. I meet some of the best people on whims

  5. Sometimes I go out on a whim and trust a person. Or give them a chance. Or believe in something. Sometimes ill assume that good things will come. I take a chance. And so should you. Because going out on a whim can often lead to great things. But careful… sometimes it wont.

  6. all of the impulses, you just can’t control them. they consume you, they control you, they conquer you. that is why i try to make them good ones, to be conquered by something good seems like an acceptable thing.

  7. My current whim is to have a nice juicy chicken burger. And my secret whim is to have him back in my life, someday…Whims can be sweet, but, very dangerous at times. Sometimes I have random blue whims. Sometimes rosy ones too.

  8. i wish i could live my life going out on a whim.
    never thinking, just doing.
    i think i would be so much more content.
    brainless, penniless even. simply void of all emotions, except happiness.

    That’s how i want to live.

  11. Excitement. Gaiety. Fun. Girls spinning in ball gowns. Children jumping into piles of leaves. Men driving their boats. Whim.

  12. Again, on a whim I ran away. The distance shortening to where I was going, yet even I don’t know where. Maybe to a place where a whim is logic and logic is not. Such feelings are fantasy, aren’t they?

  13. i dont know what to think about it…well: children.

  14. whim. nao faço ideia do que será isso, mas soa a algo acompanhado. como se houvesse alguma personagem agarrada à palavra, parte de um conto de fadas. soa a asas e a memórias, a vento e frio. soa a algo sem sentido nenhum e sobre o qual não sei se penso. provavelmente nunca dei valor.

  17. on a whim, I came and went to nowhere in between, some things I see never change. As such I run and continue on my way as if nothing had happened. I ponder such things, and begin to take pause. This is how it is. This is what I am and sadly that will not change.

  18. It wasn’t a whim that took me across the country. It was a deep-seated feeling that had been denied but still grew. A long time coming and I finally took the chance. I took a chance on you.

  19. Apparently I acted on a whim. When he crossed my mind every moment I would wish for a chance to say what was left to die. But when you asked a denied.

  20. He’d taken the idea on a whim. It was crazy, wasn’t it? It was crazy and spontaneous, and he just wasn’t a crazy and spontaneous person. But renting a hot air balloon to tell a generically nice girl that he thought she was even more than rather nice turned out to be something he didn’t think about. Not one bit.

    Amy
  21. Whimsical does not mean “doing on a whim” or “acting on a whim” or “likely to act on a whim”, despite what my English class believes. Whimsical is unicorns and rainbows and magic and happy gold etc.

  22. On a whim Isabella went to get her hair cut short, something “urchin”, which might show off her cheek bones. Unfortunately the end result was rather more prison inmate rather than young sophisticate. Isabee

  23. Your actions were based on a whim. You could never have realized the impact that they would have. It caused ripples through lives. The effect was so wide spread it damaged people you didn’t even know. That you couldn’t know.

  24. Whimsical, the word is whimsical. Story of my life as Ingrid. What shall I do today? Book, dance, write, clean, love?

  25. chance. something that could mean almost absolutely nothing to you or everything. a risk. something not thought through. you do it because it feels good.

  26. My life is rehearsed. I live it in my head and, most of the time, don’t even go through the real life motions after I’ve played it out in my mind. I guess there is little difference between living something in your head and living it in real life. That is no way to live.

  27. The epitome of the moment. Not really thinking, just doing. An extreme confidence that projects an image of envy. Fun. This is what I want to be. This is how I want to be thought of.

    Christian
  28. A whim is what someone decides to do when a thought quickly pops into their head. They haven’t thought much about the outcome, but they’re going to do it anyway. Example:

    “Today I need to cut the grass and get groceries and . . . hey that dinosaur sure looks fun to ride. I will ride him.”

    Often a whim ends poorly.

  29. i have no idea what this is about so i am just going to type random things. Yeah i dont know what to write, i just know that i am going to eat lunch soon. I am really happy about that since i am hungry and had never ate at Maid Rite before. I hope they have coke because i like that better then pepsi.

  30. the dog jumped into the snow on a whim. he had no idea or thought process of what he was doing he just wanted that ball. as he fell deeper and deeper his obsession overwhelmed him with anxiety.

  31. A quality found in the other sex. When they don’t care about you enough…or rather, they just care about themselves too much. If only they could feel the same thing as the same time then it would not be a whim anymore. It would be a mutual agreement.

    Mary
  32. On a whim, or a lark, or a spree, or a dream. He wasn’t sure which way to go when the light changed, so he kissed her and imagined the stars.

    Kathie
  33. on a whim i called and thought that you would answer. i should have been smarter than that, to know that you wouldnt be there. so niave, but still i have hope. you cant knock me for having hope and going out on a whim. I wish you were there to answer my calls, to be there to hear what i have to say, for it to be like old times.

  34. To go off on a journey without pretense and discover that which you may have been too scared to before.

    Warren Wills
  35. you ask me to write, to express a thought in a short moment. can i change your mind today? have you chosen to explore your temptation without a second glance?

  36. I’m writing you this letter on a whim. Hoping, no, begging for you to read this. Because I love you more than you can comprehend, I worship your opinions more than you can understand.
    Please, oh please, take me back.

  37. They had a whim one night. A once off whim, nothing major. Nothing major until 2 weeks later when she noticed her stomach was increasing in size…

  38. It was on a whim that I stepped on the train and sat next to the old man and it was on a whim that I told him I loved him and he told me I had made the day worthwhile and then on a whim I kissed him, stepped off the train and boarded another – to Scotland.

  39. He doesn’t know where it comes from. Suddenly he just grabs his bags and buys a train ticket going to nowhere. He breathes the unfamiliar air of lands he’s never been to, smiles at the views he’s never seen before. He loves it, he loves the way inspiration and a sudden whim take him to places he thought he’d never visit.

  40. Sometimes we, as people, do something on a whim. I don’t personally like to. I like to plan everything out. I like to have a schedule, and when that schedule is deviated from, I get a little peeved. I need to work on that, maybe do something on a whim from time to time. It sounds like it could be good for my growth.
