Lots of Pillows

I don't have much time to think of what to post today, so instead I am posting lots of pink, purple, and teal pillows. I know that has nothing to do with anything, but they're all really colorful and I like them. So, I decided they were good enough for a short post. Which one's your favorite? Mine is the 3rd one on top. It's really pink, and really frilly, and really fluffy. What could be better? ;) 

Sweet Dreams,

School

Today I officially started school. My first day of my freshman year (Wow, I can't believe I'm already a freshman!) was good and bad at the same time. Great in that I'm officially a high schooler, great in that math was a piece of cake, and great that overall school wasn't too hard today. It was bad, in that I found out I have to memorize 27 definitions for my first Biology test! I have a BAD memory when it comes to something I don't want to remember (like science definitions), and so I'm a little nervous about science this year... hopefully it will get better! Then I looked at module 6, and found I have 45 definitions, so I changed my mind about that first thought ;) Oh well, it probably won't be too bad... I hope...

This is my 9th grade notebook cover which I designed. I took out my last name on the picture (if you can tell) but that's basically how it looks :) To me the cover makes school seem so much more inspirational... sort of... but anyways, I made it up of a bunch of pictures I found with stuff I liked, and stuff that looked cool. What I'm still wondering though, is what on earth is that green circle thing with a black outline on the bottom? I haven't figured it out, but I'm determined to! I liked the color, so I put it in LOL :)

Hope everyone else who has started school already has had a good first school day too!

The Wonderful Color of Teal

As many of you know, I am thrilled with the color teal, and so you can probably tell that I took the following pictures.

My new earrings in my favorite color!

A bracelet that I made, once again in my favorite color 

I painted my nails to match my earrings and bracelet, and so they are also painted my favorite color. LOL :)

So as you can see, I have REALLY been into teal lately! I just like the color SO much!

The girl who obviously has a favorite color,

Summer Memory #5

I have soooo many more favorite days from the summer, and only today left to post them, so I decided I would make a list of some of my favorite summer memories (This list does not include the memories I've already posted)
SOME OF MY FAVORITE SUMMER MEMORIES:
1. Bowling every Wednesday this summer
2. Helping out with VBS
3. Sunday night summer bible study at my church
4. Potluck at our small group
5. Sleeping over at my friend Lynnae's house (Also making 10 topping sundaes with her wasn't bad either :) )
6. Finishing Driver's Ed.!
7. My brother Matthew's 12th Birthday
8. Going to Starbucks :)
9. Watching the Summer Olympics
10. Going swimming a ton!

So those are just some of my many other favorite things I've done this summer! :)

I can't believe I start school this Monday! I've started Spanish already, and have done a little bit of science, but for me I have to start doing everything this Monday. Oh well, I had a good summer... and I also do have a lot to look forward to this fall... like starting classes at HEAT, and playing basketball for HEAT!

 Missing summer, but still looking forward to fall,

Last Week of Summer Break

Well, it's almost time to officially start school. A week from tomorrow I'll be doing Algebra problems, attempting to understand Biology, reading through my literature book, and tying to speak Spanish. I somewhat like starting school, but one thing I will miss is the summer! Since this is my last week of summer break, I plan to enjoy every bit of it, so everyday this week I will write a Summer Time Post! Each post will include one of my many favorite memories from this summer! I hope you all enjoy the rest of your summer break too!

Accessorizing My Room

I recently went to Target, and found a bunch of neat stuff to put in my room, so here is some of what I got!

 I got 5 frames to put on the plant shelf in my room! Three of them are shades of teal, and 2 of them are silver.

 These are white boards! They are magnetic, and match the colors of my room so I decided they'd fit it well

 Finally, I hung these lanterns over my door. They look really cool at night!

So basically, those are the most recent updates to my room!
