Farm Kings
I just discovered a new tv show. It's called Farm Kings. It is super awesome. It's about this family who lives on a farm. They have 9 boys and 1 girl. They have like, 140 acres. I love that they are a family working together and that they are so close. No farms, no food!

Hanukkah
As the days pass, I find myself getting more and more excited for the holiday season. We are in the midst of it now and i'm looking forward to spending time with my family. The first night of Hanukkah is tonight, opening the first gift. I am not the kind of person who goes all out for the holidays. But i do enjoy it. Isn't it fun to think about all of those gifts!? But of course, it's not all about the presents. Let me tell you this story......
The story of Hanukkah is amazing. It blows me away every time i hear it. The Greeks were trying to take over the holy temple a long time ago. They came in and ruined the temple and started putting up their own statues of their gods. The Jews were forced to bow down to the Greek statues. Everyone obeyed... everyone but a group of men called the Maccabees. These men made a plan to take back their holy temple. And they succeeded. They won! But the sad thing was that the Greeks had messed the place up. Everything was scattered. They needed pure oil to light the menorah but all of it had been spilled and was no longer pure. 'What are we going to do?' asked everyone. Then, suddenly, they found one, single bottle of pure oil that has been spared. But it was only enough to last one day. And it took eight days to make more oil. Miraculously, the one jar of oil lasted eight days. Isn't that amazing!?

mystery sound
One day, I woke up to a sharp scratching. It was barely 3 o'clock in the morning. It sounded like an animal was in my ceiling. I lie awake for what felt like hours. The scratching got louder and clearer. I wondered if it could be a mouse or even a raccoon. Finally, i was fed up. I got out of bed and, leaning over to grab a book, started hitting my ceiling. To my great relief, the scratching stopped. I got back in bed, hoping to catch a few more hours of sleep. I was almost asleep when i hear, "Sca-ahh-ahh...Sca-ahh-ahh" The scratching sounded closer then before. And, like a maniac, next thing i knew, i was running up the stairs to my parents room. I don't think that i've ever ran so fast. And i never found out what my mysterious sound was...

make-up
Hey guys! I've really been thinking lately about make-up. Make-up shouldn't be something that you use to cover up your face. Of course there are those things that make-up is good for... you know... zits, cold sores, little blemishes. But it shouldn't be for 'making-up' a new face. People want to see you, not your make-up. Concealer, yes, is good for concealing. A woman that i met once said, "If it's concealer, i shouldn't be able to see it." How true is that!?
Wearing make-up can make you feel grown up. Trust me, i know. Wearing make-up does make us feel pretty. That is totally alright. But I've found that wearing lighter, softer colors help bring out the real, true, natural look. I wear light purple eye shadow, and blush that is practically the real color that i blush. Having your mom helps too. Our moms have been through this and, trust me, they know more about make-up then we think.
So i hope that this has helped you with make-up. Hope your day is marvelous. :)

Awkward moment
AHH!!! Don't you hate that awkward moment!? It drives me crazy. The tension is even worse when you know that he knows you like him. OH! Look at Johnny Depp's face. Priceless!

The Sandlot
This movie, The Sandlot, was one of my early childhood favorites. I was REALLY into this movie when i was younger. It brings back good memories and a weird feeling comes over me when i watch it now. We just bought it and i haven't watched it in, like, eight years. Then i watched it about a month ago. I was never into baseball movies but this one was the exception. I love this movie!

Tell me!!!
The exaggeration is so funny! Every teenager knows this feeling. He really is a yell-er, ya know? I hate it when you REALLY want to know and they still won't tell you. Too funny!

Lights. Camera. Action.
So... i am in theater, and this is me in my stage make up. It's a lot of fun. I would highly recommend being in theater. It helps with making friends and show your inner beast. Heehee!!! Just kidding!
really!?
I know the feeling! Can you believe how far that woman can roll back her eyes!? It's crazy! That look that she gives the camera at the end always makes me laugh! And her hair is atrocious!
Hello darlings!
Hello my darlings! I hope that your day is going well! I just wanted to make your day extraordinary by saying hi. I am sitting in my living room and thinking of all of you. I am tired and i think that i'm getting sick. So i just wanted to say hi and tell you that i love you and your awesome! Enjoy your extraordinary day!

Best friends!
See... that is what best friends are for. They are there for you when you need them, and are even there for you when you don't need them. I think that a best friend knows everything about you... and still hangs out with you. They know the bad things you've done. And the hard stuff you've gone through. A friends sees the hardships that you've gone through and does something to comfort you. I just went on about friends and i wasn't intending to. But having a best friend is the bomb! They are there to make a mistake with you. Take a risk just for fun. And jump in on a spur-of-the-moment idea.

snuggle not muzzle
I am very against dog fighting. And this just seemed very cute and very appropriate. I love pitbulls! It breaks my heart when i hear about puppies that r born into that. And dogs that r put through that kinda trauma. Who feels the same way? How could they!? Look at that puppy face! I love that face! CUTE!!!
KNEEEEL!!!
I know that this is an exaggeration but it was funny to me. Who else remembers this feeling? Like ur in charge. I loved that feeling of being the line leader. We have all felt it. Even though we weren't THAT strict about it. I always felt so grown up when i was line leader.

Creepy movie!
I think that this is so true. I have thought about this before. We should create a movie like this! Does anyone else wanna help me with this? I would love to write a direct a movie like this.
Don't even!
I found this funny mini clip. It's really funny to me. Does this happen to anyone else? It's like, "don't even." Heehee!!! 'Stop everything! Did you just say what i think you said.!?' Haha!
New friends... and old
I was thinking today about friends. i just moved, like i said in my last post, and I'm learning to make new friends. Moving isn't easy. Whether your moving across the city or across the country, leaving old friends behind is hard. For me, leaving behind everyone was the hardest par of moving. but that's why i love email... it helps me keep in touch with my friends.
Making new friends can be difficult too. When it comes to meeting new people, I'm not that shy. But recently, when I'm around new people, I've just froze in my spot. i get jellyfish in my stomach and i draw a complete blank. i don't know what to say or do. It's really awkward. But I've grown to appreciate my new-found shyness. It protects me from saying something stupid when my brain and my mouth stop communicating. Which, unfortunately, happens more then I'd like it to. So, don't worry about being shy. It happens to the best of us.

Not a mistake
Have you ever thought that your life was a mistake? Well, may i (hopefully not) be the first to tell you that your not a mistake. and trust me, your not alone in your thinking. there is a moment in all of our lives when we question our existence. We are all in a different situation. And taking our own lives won't do us any good. Neither will cutting yourself. You were put on earth for a reason, and even if you don't believe in G-d, I hope that you can believe this. In the words of Demi Quinn, "Wrists are for bracelets, not for razors." Agreed!
On October 9th every year, I draw a sun on my wrist. I do it to show that i support those girls who suffer from eating disorders, cutting themselves, and suicidal thoughts. Every girl is beautiful and has a reason for being here. Just like every ray of sunshine that comes to earth. It is essential to our existence. Every girl is like a ray of sunshine.

background...
I figured that I would give you guys a little bit of background on me... so here you go.
I'm 15 years old. I have two little brothers and a little sister. I'm the oldest. My brothers are twins and they are 13. My little sister is only 3 months old. We have a big age difference between my brothers and my sister. We just moved to a farm in Western Washington. So i'm still working on making new friends.
I am one of those girls who can't help but sing in public, and loves to walk along the beach. I am a nerd and I am proud of it. And I'm an even prouder Directioner. I am one of those girls who hears a sad song come on the radio, looks out the window and acts it out. I am a girl who has a messy room, a lot of selfies, and I am totally hung up on one guy. Simple... not really... yeah... no.
(The picture below is of my brothers and i. It's an old picture but i'll update it in a while.)
