Summer Memory #2

One of the awesome things that I got to do this summer was go to Film Camp. Every year my mom goes to the homeschool convention in Orlando, and this year I got to go with her! They were having a teen camp about making films, and so I went to that. It was REALLY fun. I met a lot of nice people, the camp was really interesting, and it was the first time my mom and I had a weekend alone. 
...And while it appears I have two Starbucks in this picture, really, only one of them was mine! :) The other one was my moms. This picture was taken in the morning at the hotel we were staying at, before I went to Film Camp.

Have a fantastic Tuesday!

Summer Memory #1

The day I finished my SAT for 8th grade, we got in the car and headed to Bradenton, FL, for the Pepsi Bowl Tournament! As my first memory of the summer, it was a pretty good one! I know that technically it was in early May but it was still part of my summer break. :) For those of you who don't know, this past year I was in a bowling league. When they were picking people to go to the tournament I was not very good at bowling, but the week they were picking I somehow did really well for myself. I was surprised I made it, but very happy! :) The week before the tournament I was practicing a ton, and doing worse than I normally did at bowling! When I got there though, I did really well! My brother Matthew and my friend Andrea and her brother also made it to the tournament which was nice since I knew someone there. Andrea and I were about 25 lanes apart, but whenever I got to a good breaking point I tried to run over and say hi! I played 6 games of bowling, and the bowling alley was really weird compared to how they look here, but it still went well. I love competition, so it was lots of fun. 
I kept looking for a good picture of the bowling tournament, but on all of the pictures I was bowling with terrible posture, and so I decided that one of me walking away from the pins was good enough :) Anyways, to sum it up that was one of my best, and first summer memories.

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!
