Flowers, Water, and Plants

A plant in my backyard.

This is a picture of a weed. I know, it's way to happy to be one! So I'll just consider it a pretty weed :)

These are more flowers, but in this picture they actually look like weeds.

 Flowers in the neighbor's yard... actually the plant is 3/4 in their yard and 1/4 in ours, so I took the picture on our side.

An unripe orange. When they get ripe though, they always taste so sour on our tree! I never usually eat them, just throw them into the lake for fun :)

 The lake. it seemed really blue today.

 Reeds and Cattails that have broken and fallen into the water.
The bench. It may be a little old, but it's nice to swing on :)

Hope everyone has had a nice day! 

In about a week I'm going to give my blog a new look. I plan on completely redoing it! I like changes :)

TTYL,

Dragon Fruit Flower

These photos are of a Dragon Fruit flower. We have a Dragon Fruit plant in the front of our yard, and when it's ready to produce fruit it blooms a flower like the one above. The flower only opens up one night and wilts by morning, so I was happy I didn't miss my chance to photograph it! I've never had a dragon fruit itself before so I'm wondering if I'll like it when we get one off the plant.
Have a good evening everyone!

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!
