Too Much Fun...

If you can't already tell, I was having WAY too much fun taking photos with the webcam today. I look weird in most of the photos, but oh well. ;) Today I checked how many webcam photos and videos I had taken since July 1st. Yikes, I've diffidently been taking too many photos!... There were almost 500! How could I possibly have taken THAT many photos of myself!!! Most of them looked the same. LOL :) I need to go through them and delete almost all of them soon, but until then I will continue to take many more photos ;)
Have a fantastic day, Brooke <3

15 Things Before I'm 15


I added a new page to my blog! CLICK HERE to see it. It's a list of goals to complete between today, August 13 and December 6, when I turn 15. I'm not going to stress over them, but I'm going to try to complete them! Wish me luck! On August 28 I'll post my first progress report to tell you how I'm doing ;)
Have a fabulous day everyone!

Last Day Of Olympics

I can't believe the Olympics are almost over. It seems like it just started! Oh well. It was fun to watch! I personally spent most of my time watching track, gymnastics, and swimming but the other sports were good as well... except a few... it might just be me, but is water polo REALLY boring?.. I can't believe how much they showed it!... and their headgear was REALLY weird looking as well. They looked like bonnets with headphones on their ears! They were kind of funny ;) I also don't like equestrian very much... I feel bad for the horses! The people are the ones who get the gold medals, but the horses do all the work. LOL :) Of course, I don't know what the horses would do with the medals if they got them. Now I loved to watch synchronized swimming, but was also creeped out by some of the people who did it... especially a two person swim done by Russia, where they were dressed up as dolls with tons of makeup, and scary faces. They were kind of scary, but fun to watch. What are your favorite and least favorite Olympic sports? Please comment!

P.s. Oh, and thanks so much to everyone who has been commenting!

Stuff I'm looking forward to...

In exactly 10 days, 17 hours, and 45 minutes I'll be starting HEAT classes!
In exactly 74 days, 7 hours, and 45 minutes I'll be joining Heat's Basketball team!
In 117 days, 17 hours, and 44 minutes I'll have my Driver's permit!
I know that was really random, but I decided you might as well know when I do certain things ;) So onto the topics, I am thrilled about starting HEAT classes. I am taking debate and writing (which some of you already know). To me, I LOVE competition, making debate a great class choice. I also love writing, and so that should be fun as well. 
I am convinced that basketball is the best sport to ever be invented, and have been asking to play with HEAT for 4 years, so I am also very thrilled to be starting that in Fall!
Finally, I REALLY want to drive, and am planning to get my permit the day after my birthday, and so I am looking forward to that as well!

<3, Brooke
P.s. Sorry this is such a random post ! ;)

Cookies !!!

These are the giant Snicker Doodles that are freshly baked. I was at first going to make fresh soft pretzels, but we were out of flour. I was then going to bake cinnamon rolls, but I realized we still did not have enough flour for that! I tragically had to turn to the boxed cookie mix route with homemade icing, but thankfully they still tasted really good. To me, any cookie is worth making except for oatmeal cookies, and so I enjoyed these. I also liked them, because I look the word Snicker Doodle. That's a good reason to bake cookies, right? ;) Have a fantastic cookie-filled day!

The Crazy Weird Things I Do:

Presenting the list of Crazy Weird Things About Me: Yes, some of them are just really strange. Prepare to learn a bunch about the weird stuff I do:
1. One of my hobbies is clobbering my bracelets. Yes, clobbering them. I love bracelets so I wear them a ton, but I also love tareing them apart... You see, I play with my bracelets, roll them in hands, stretch them, slide around the beads, and the next thing I know they're either too stretched out to wear, or a pile of beads on the floor.
2. Whenever I have the hicups, I drink a glass of water with a paper towel covering it. Surprisingly, it works! ...And my hiccups do go away, but it's weird if you think about it.
3. I don't like eggs. Scrambled, sunny side up, omelets, hard boiled, and every other type of egg is disgusting to me! I don't know another person who doesn't like eggs besides myself, but I always think eggs smell like moldy socks, and taste like garbage... eew.
4. I am convinced that if I check someone elses blog, it's going to change every time I look at it... meaning I find myself checking someone's blog fifteen times a day, expecting them to have posted something new fifteen times. I told you these things were weird ! ;)
5. I get on phrases which I use all the time. Right now I say 'Do you get my point?' when I don't think someone understands what I say... and that happens often... ;)
6. Whenever someone asks me to choose something (like what we should do), I almost always say I'm 'indinfrent' 'anything's good' 'i don't care' or 'whatever works with me'. I never noticed that I barley ever have an opinion in what I choose until one of my friends pointed it out to me... so recently I've been trying to have more of an opinion, but I still find myself saying those words often :)
7. Sometimes I feel like I have to wave to every person who goes by our street, and since we live in the very front of the neighborhood tons of cars come in. Well, whenever I feel like I have to, and I'm shooting baskets outside, I'll often hide behind the car, to prevent people from seeing me. I have NO idea why I do that.
8. Occasionally I'll spray my nails with butter cooking spray after painting them, because it supposedly makes them dry faster. Yes, they do dry faster, but then my hands are all greasy and my fingernails smell like butter for the day.
9. Whenever someone asks me to pull weeds, I automaticly volunteer to clean the bathroom... you might be able to tell that weeds and I are NOT friends... not that scrubbing the tub is a friend of mine either...
10. I am convinced that everything is a finger food including green beans, asparagus, carrots, and baby potatoes... except one time I also wanted to try to eat my mashed potatoes with my fingers... that did not go to well... be thankful I've never tried that again... ;)
11. Whenever I have nothing to do, I go on the computer and do nothing... literally, I click on websites, and close them down the second they come up since I'm bored... how fun. ha ha.
12. There are a very few certain people who whenever they ask me a question, I freeze up and give an absoulutely STRANGE answer. Be thankful you're not one of those people, or you would probably not like me too much...

So I hope you have enjoyed reading about some of the several weird things I do! Hopefully some of you won't feel as bad about little things you do, when you read my list ;) Oh, and I'm really not as weird as I sound... then again, take that back. LOL :)
