Random Day

So today I did everything. Okay, maybe not THAT much, but still a lot. 
The day started out with school. Spanish, Writing, Literature, Algebra 2, and everything else.
For lunch I had pizza. Yum!
I watched the movie "Courageous" which I really like this afternoon. It's kind of unusual for me since I don't usually watch movies in the middle the afternoon, but I felt like it today.
I decided to play Brain Age 2 on the Nintendo DS, which is also kind of weird for me since I'm not much of a Brain Age player. That game bores me easily.
...Then I spent some fun time on the laptop writing, reading, and writing down blogging ideas. I didn't get too far on those, but do know what I'll be posting everyday in December, so I guess I made some progress!
I ate dinner, and after my family left for our Small Group.
At Small Group we had our music time, going over the sermon time, and prayer time. It is the second-to-last night for one of my friends to go to our Small Group, as her family is moving 3 hours away :(
We did have fun though afterwards with the time we had- someone baked wonderful strawberry-chocolate cupcakes which we enjoyed, and then we played Ninja. For those of you who don't know what Ninja is, it's kind of a strange game. Sometimes it's fun, and sometime's it's weird. Basically, you're trying to hit each other's hands, and dodge other people. After playing that with all the girls a few times, I ate another cupcake and we left. 
So I am now home, writing this. I guess that pretty much sums up my day. Maybe not the best day ever, but still a pretty good one! <3

G'night,

Silver and Black Shoes


Today was a shopping day. Well, actually first I had to get a physical for basketball, then my mom and I went to Starbucks, and then we went shopping! Mainly it was a shoe shopping trip. The one pair of heels I had prior to this trip was breaking, uncomfortable, and not quite my style so I obviously needed some new ones! I've been looking for shoes for about 3 months, but I finally found 2 pairs I love! In the Dillard's clearance section I happened to find these pairs, and they were perfectly my size. I like the first black pair for the frills on top. I like the second pair for the color and I love the straps on it! Basically both pairs are nice. Hope everyone has a nice night!

Jewelry Dress


Okay, so this is my favorite jewelry holder in the world. I got it at ROSS some time back for only $7, and since I loved it I decided I needed to get one :)
It looks prettier in real life, but basically it has a bunch of sequins, frills, and sparkles. It holds necklaces, hoop earrings, and bracelets all around it, and rings on top. I had to clean it for it's picture because I counted about 20 different bracelets and necklaces. That's kind of a lot for the picture and you could barley see the dress! Oh well, it's pretty again now. :)

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,
Brooke

Spending Time On A Translator...

One weird thing I do ALL the time is go on an online translator, and type in random phrases and find how you say them in different languages. For example, 'Dreaming in Color' in:
French: Rêver en couleurs
Spanish: Soñar en colores
Dutch: Dromen in kleur
Polish: Śni w kolorze
German: Träumen in Farbe
Filipino: Pangangarap sa kulay
Latin: Somniare in colore
Okay. So not that reading 'Dreaming In Color' in 7 languages is the most fun thing to do in the world, but in order to keep up with my goal of posting everyday I have to post something ;) Maybe I shouldn't have made that goal...

Stripes Are My Friends.

Okay, so maybe the pants are a little wild, but overall I love stripes :) I don't nearly have enough striped outfits, but really like them. They seem to make everything bolder and interesting. Specifically, I think the dress in the middle is really cute. Oh, and the girl on the left looks like Francesca Battistelli to me. Just a random thought ;)
