Green and Slimy

              Hey again ! Yet again something dreadful has happened to me again.So today I was outside taking some pictures.As I was walking around taking pictures I looked at the gravel and swiftly moved my foot across it and made a heart. I wanted to take a picture of it but the heart and the gravel blended to much. BING ! A great idea popped into my head; Instead of making a heart into the gravel and taking the picture, I would go into the garage , get some colored chalk and make a heart on the pavement. So once I snapped a last picture of a flower I headed onward to the garage. The car doors were shut so I went to the side door. I tried opening the door. It wouldn't . So I pushed a little harder. FINALLY! It opened but then something fell on my hand. At first I thought it was the rubber from the door . But then I  saw it was green and it started curling around my finger. Five seconds later I screamed and shook my hand as hard as I could to get the SNAKE off. In less then 30 seconds I was in the house trembling. A SNAKE touched me ! How gross. So always remember ;  NEVER open your garage door in the summer without checking for a snake crawling at the top of the door.

Rough Night

Hey again ! I know I haven't been on for a while but now I have time. Why? Because school is out and two nights ago I had a HORRIBLE night's sleep.First of all, my cousins came and I was excited ! But that night we all decided to sleep in tents. That was one of my great ideas-if you didn't have five people sleeping in a two people tent.The reason everyone piled up in my tent was due to the fact the other tent had my a snoring dad and a two-hundred-fifty pound dog with him. it was a tight space in my tent but I thought it would be fine. How WRONG I was! Sadly , I chose the spot on the edge of the tent.We were all ontop of a huge sleeping bag so I THOUGHT we would all be able to stay on it together.So this is the outcome of all this: Allergies from having to hairy cats getting into the tent just HAVING to rub their fur right by my nose, a cousin who keeps waking me up because there was a junebug outside,one cousing who hogged the only blanket I had yet she had like three, me ending up at the end of the tent with no sleeping bag under me , being at the end I was like a tent support board or something since it was SO windy, another cousin who took my pillows, and finally , waking up sweating up a lake and hearing giggles in the tent because a little cousin crawled in there with a cat telling me to watch her pet it. I know you MUST be laughing due to my misfortune, but know , I need to sleep...

Picture Perfect

                                    Hey again! So have you guys ever felt that you had to do EVERYTHING right? Do you feel your a perfectionist? (I know I am !) I know you guys already know this but I am going to say it again: Nobody is Perfect . There I said it .  Now I know how I am. I understand the saying but I MUST  make sure everything is how I want it . Like a wedding, we feel that everything should go as planned as well as it was in our  minds; The doves come flying out right as the Bride and Groom kiss. A carriage magically appears when the couple is ready to leave. And of course , everyone should have tears of joy when the couple  is pronounced  Husband and Wife. Well, sometimes that doesn't happen. Sometimes we blame it on ourselves, the wedding planner, a bride's maid, or the wedding itself. Then again comes that word...PERFECT ! Just remember , nothing comes as planned as it is in your head. Like when am am drawing a picture; In my mind it has detail, beautiful color,great porportion, such beauty. But after I draw it, the picture doesn't look as well as in my imagination. And if anything turns completely different than you thought, well, try again. Nothing is as great as it is pictured, nobody and nothing is perfect. We are all just human. Sometimes when we are satisfied we can call it perfect. I guess that's how it is perfect, when you are satisfied. So when something isn't great, think of the upside or how it will help you later on. That is Perfect . Remember that...Perfect.

Nervous

Hey again! Have you guys ever had that butterfly feeling In your stomach? Well as you Most likely know is that it's from being nervous. Don't worry! Everyone feels that way oodles of times in their life. Either its that butterfly feeling, sweating, shaking all over, or just plainly feeling sick. Sometimes we just want to runaway and hide until the whole thing we are worried about is done. Like a spelling bee, piano recital,concert,speech,or something as simple as a test. When you are nervous and you feel that people will think your bad at what you are trying , just think about it this way; Hey they're not the one up here showing everyone something that you like doing. Turn the tables on them and think how they would feel if they had to do it. Then you will have more confidence hopefully. And if you truly feel like you have tried your hardest at what you have been preparing for like a big test. If you have studied hard for this test and feel like you deserve an A, then what is there to be worried about ? I hope I have filled you with more confidence and something to think about.( I know I have myself by just writing this!) Well, I guess that's all! And remember, don't ever feel too nervous! Believe in yourself!

Mother's Day

          This is just a short talk to tell you about how I feel with Mother's Day.  Yes, yes I know what you thinking ; Why is she writing about Mother's Day ? It  is already done and over with. Well , let's think differently. We have already celebrated Mother's Day . Why do you think it's just one day of celebrating mothers everywhere? I think it is just one day when we remind mothers and grandmothers that we apprectiate them. We should show are love to them everyday - which we do- but Mother's Day is a special thanks to them . So I love you mom! :) And another thanks to mothers all over! Happy Mother's Day everyone! Celebrate it everyday.

Forgetfulness

               Have you ever felt like you forget everything? Well I feel that way sometimes. Almost to the point to where I am blind. I tell myself I have to get a glass of water from upstairs so I get up and wallk upstairs look around and forget what I was even doing! The blind part comes in with this next...Incident. So I decided to put my hair in a ponytail one morning. So I go into the bathroom to seek for one but I can't find one in an instant. I opened the drawer, started moving things around and PRESTO! I thought to myself, Hey what am I even looking for ? 5 minutes later guess what. I smack myself upside the head and thought , Duh ! A ponytail holder! So if you EVER feel like you are missing something...Don't worry I am ALWAYS forgetting. I have even diagnosed myself. SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS ! ( Really short term) OOPS !! I just forgot what else I was supposed to say. Go figuire.

Summer

                         Summer...Oh..Summer Vacation ! I need YOU to come NOW ! I have felt like school is taking a whole other year to get over with even though it's just two weeks. I am tired of getting up in the morning. The anticipation of no more school is killing me ! I need it  now! You guys would understand right ? Well I am ready for my vacation. I got sunscreen, a pool, my sunglasses, a swimsuit, and I am ready to relax. The sun is peeking out ready to see us all running around and having fun is the sun. Oh yah. I am ready for Summer...Can't wait. Can you ?
