Fill in the Blank Friday #7

1. Blogging is something fun I have recently discovered. I love meeting new people, and letting some of this hot air out.

2. A current fashion trend that I was brave enough to wear is hah, yeah right. I stick with basics. Jeans, plain t-shirts, hoddies.

3. My greatest accomplishment in life thus far is completing the 9th grade? Haha. But by June I know it will be completing the 10th grade, because this year really ain't the greatest.

4. If I had to choose between a mountain vacation and a beach vacation I'd choose beach. I love the weather, the sand, the water... I'd probably even take up surfing. ;)

5. A talent I wish I had is sports. I'm really unathletic, and in my high school those are basically the only extracurricular activities.

6. A talent I do have is Take me in to any home I've never been to before, and 9 times out of 10 I can tell you where the silverware drawer is.

7. This week was Homecoming week. I'm not a fan really. (I'm a sophomore, but I'm already SO over high school.)

Photos from a few weekends ago. Had a fun time making cupcakes with a few friends!

Just TOMS.

I only own 2 pairs of TOMS Shoes, but I am most definitely interested in getting a new pair soon.

And incase you don't know anything about TOMS, they're a company that was founded on one simple principal: For every pair of shoes they sell, they will donate one pair to a child in need.

I'm sold!

Here are some of the pairs I've been eying for quite some time...

Prima Classics

Slate Wool Cordones

Novia Classics

(how rad are these?!)

What about you? Do you like TOMS?

Monday - October 11.

This Monday's picture theme IS...

Autumn.

My favorite season used to be summer, but now I'm wondering if it's becoming fall.

The cooler weather, the leaves changing colors, and how it's always the perfect time to take a walk.

How was your Monday?

I am me.

Some people really annoy me. I've noticed it more lately, and I've been trying to figure out why this is. It could be because I'm jealous. Of what? I'm not sure. I feel like even though I know I have everything I need, and a lot of what I want, that they have more. Which, it is ridiculous that I would feel that way. I don't understand why I do.

Maybe they have more friends than me. Maybe they have a better relationship with Jesus than I do. Maybe they get better grades than I do. Maybe they have more of a life than I do. Maybe they have hobbies they love and I don't. Maybe they always have plans with friends and I don't. Maybe they have bigger dreams than I do. Maybe they have a map of their life planned out and I don't. Maybe I feel like they know who they are, and I don't. Maybe they have hobbies they love and I don't.

It could be anything. But I need to start realizing that how I feel shouldn't depend on what others do or don't do. I'm me, and I can't change that.

Fill in the Blank Friday #6

Fill in the blank Friday.

1. The first thing I do in the morning to start my day is hit snooze. Haha. Really though... take a shower.

2. Today I wish I was skipping school to go to Kalamazoo or Grand Rapids. Or even sleep. Oh well.

3. If I had an extra $100 dollars in my bank account today I'd go shopping. Go see a movie. Go pick apples.

4. Tomorrow I'm going to see The Social Network with a few friends. Fun!

5. Two things that don't go together are me and stress. Doesn't happen to often, but I hate when it does. Although it does make me more productive.

6. Something I can never pass up at the grocery store is junk food. I like a lot of vegetables and fruits, but I always try to convince my parents to let me get that candy. ;)

7. The last time I tried something new was evidently, too long ago since I can't remember when it was!

Monday.

Happy Monday.

This Monday's picture theme is:

Europe: In Black & White

I just think black and white pictures, especially of Europe, are so amazing.

They always make me smile, and can most definitely make my Monday a little bit better.

This photo just plain makes my heart melt.

I hate snow in Michigan. I have a feeling I would love snow in France.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
