365, Day 8: Rainy Days always get me down...


Rainy days always get me down. I just want to lay in bed all day long & watch re-runs of my favorite TV shows. I don't want to do anything on days like these, especially go to school & walk around campus in the rain.
Such a dreary day.
Maybe this weekend will be nice & sunny!

365, Day 7: Children of the Corn, much??


I was driving home from school one afternoon, when I passed a ratherly large cornfield. Now, cornfields in the past haven't creeped me out, until I watched one, Children of the Corn, and two, the worst of them all, Signs. Uh, just the mention of the name of the movie creeps me out. 
When Mel Gibson sees the alien's leg move back into the corn, at night, with his flashlight in hand, yep, that's when I have been officially terrified by cornfields. Love them in the daytime, well sort of, but, night time, you might as well forget it!!
Children of the Corn is a whole 'nother story. That movie is just scary to me. Creeeeppppy.
Cornfields. Sheesh.
Fall is definitely making its first impression on me! Haha.

365, Day 6: Good Luck Charm


My Uncle Roger gave this bracelet to me after my Aunt Kathryn passed away. He gave me many pieces of her jewelry, including a spoon ring, but for some reason, this bracelet, brings good luck to me whenever I wear it. I guess it just makes me special, and have a piece of my aunt wherever I go. My aunt was a very important & special person to me, and to our family. She was the one who held our family together. It's been almost three years since she's been gone.
I will forever wear this bracelet as my good luck charm, to my job interviews, presentations, college graduation, my wedding day, because I will know she will be with me always.

My mom, Uncle Bill, & I after attending Tabler Presbyterian Church's 100th anniversary celebration.
Family is most important to me in my life.
What's important to you in your life?

365, Day 4: There's Just Something Schweet, about a Sweet Tea


There's just something sweet about a McDonald's sweet tea. No matter what kind of mood you are in, a sweet tea from McDonald's always seems to put you in a better one :-)
And it's even better that's it's only a DOLLAR! Nothing sweeter than that!!!

365, Day 3: Pepper's birthday


Isn't my Pepper beautiful? She just celebrated her 11th birthday (in our years). That would make her 77 years old in cat years! WOW, Pep, you're an old woman, haha.

My Neighbor Totoro: Mei Meets Totoro



One of my favorite childhood movies....My Neighbor Totoro!

365: Day 2: It's the Little Things that Count

This was made for me by my 7th grade language arts teacher, Mrs. Wilt. It's an early graduation present :)
I absolutely love it! All handmade! Every year, we try to have lunch together to just catch up in life. She was one of those teachers who made an impact in my life, my school career.
This gift will go in my classroom and give me the motivation to be the best teacher I can be to my little kindergartners :)

365, Day 1: Stink bugs, you will be the death of me!!


These lovely little creatures are currently the talk of the town...they're everywhere! Invading my car, the classrooms, my morning cup of Joe, you name, they've invaded it! They're stink bugs. Yup, they stink, they fly, not well mind you, and they now like to crawl on you and bite...apparently it's a new breed. Sheesh.

My Life in Pictures

I recently saw a classmate of mine post something on Facebook that many of her friends she said were doing, taking pictures on every day, and writing something that happened each and every day to her. She stated she was going to do this for an entire year: her life summed up in a year in pictures. It seemed like a wonderful and fun idea!

So, I wanted to do it too! I'm joining her bandwagon along with her other friends. I am going to take a picture every day for an entire year, and document what I did, even if it is not entirely entertaining..along I am an education major, so I am bound to have something interesting happen every day of my life, haha, no matter what it is.
