Senior Wills

First off, I will the locker wars to a responsible group of girls that enjoy some good, clean fun. With that being said, I can move on to other less important things. I will my locker to the next person whose name starts with an H. Not sure who that might be but they better keep it in good shape, because my locker is in mint condition. Next, I would like to will my purple pen to Miss Hudson. For 2 reasons: she likes purple pens and I know she will get good use out of it. I know she will appreciate that. :-)

Advice to the Juniors.

Congratulations! You have made it to your senior year. This might possibly be your best year of school you've ever had. It's what you make it out to be. The biggest best advice I can give you is HAVE FUN. Don't stress about homework and projects. You'll get those done in all good time. When the occasion arises that you and your friends wanna go out and have fun, go do it. Go make memories. This is your senior year and it only happens once (hopefully). Do you really wanna look back on your senior year and think, "Man, I'm glad I stayed home every weekend and did my homework." HECK NO! Go out and have fun!! :D

You call that a compliment?

I've never really gotten a weird compliment. I did receive a compliment once that could be seen as creepy but I thought it was really sweet. I was working for St. John's Breadline in Springfield which is a soup kitchen. This African American man came in and was just a sweetheart. He asked if I was married and I said no, not yet. He was all like really? Well look to the future, baby. You are sweet and pretty. I will never forget him telling me that. 
Another thing funny that happened was when me and Lizzy were at East Peoria Walmart and we were walking to the door to go in. The next row over, a white van was driving by and shouted at us, "D*mn shawty, nice a**!" Haha and to make it even funnier, Lizzy was wearing her Apple Bottom jeans! 

I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed.

Ever since I was a young child, I have been afraid of the dark. People always say that being afraid of the dark is stupid. Well, I think it's a pretty legit fear. In the dark, you can't see who or what is coming for you. I'm always afraid that a crazy psycho murderer is going to come out of the dark, grab me by the ankles, and drag me to hell. I remember when I was little, I hated it when my mom turned out the lights for bedtime because the dark scared me even more back then. Now it doesn't scare me as much as back then, but I still get afraid at times.

Week 26

If I had unlimited time, there would be many things I would be able to accomplish. I can't choose just one thing. Honestly, my biggest priority would be to see different parts of the world. I've never left North America and I want to venture out a little bit. I would start by spending a couple years in Italy. Then Ireland. Then Switzerland. Then Madagascar. And pretty much any place you could think of, I would go there. I would go waddle around with penguins and pet a stingray. I could even ride a frickin giraffe. Or an elephant. There are so many things I would do but that's okay because I have eternity to accomplish them all.

Week 25

Oh man. Me meeting my future me. That would be awesome. I always want to know what the future holds but it is impossible to figure it out until you get there. And what fun is that? I WANNA KNOW NOW. Soooo, if I had the chance to meet my future self, I would ask so many things. I would ask how my Army career turned out. I am so scared that this whole Army thing isn't for me and it would be greatly reassuring to know if it really worked out. Another thing I would like to know is who I fell in love with and got married to. I wanna know how long my current relationship is going to last or if it will end at all. There's so many things I would ask. I would also ask lots of advices.

Week 21

My favorite couple of the moment is the girl and the guy from Rock of Ages. I can't remember their names because I haven't seen the movie in a couple months. But I love their relationship because it's so cute. They're very compatible because they both love music. Throughout the movie they drift apart sadly because he thought she was cheating with another guy in a famous band. She needs to make more money so she starts stripping. He was into rock and roll but he got into hip hop. They both have turned into people they never wanted to be. By the end, they reunite and join a famous rock band. I just love it so much. It's very cute.

Toy Cars & Houses

When I was younger, my brother and I shared a bunch of our toys. I always loved playing with is toy cars and my play house. I would pretend that I lived at the house and I owned all the cars. The cars would have races. I spent hours playing with those and it never got boring. It was so cool because in my imagination, I actually though I was driving the cars and it was the best thing ever. I do remember one time my brother was playing Barbies with me only because I had a Barbie car. He asked me stuff like, "How much horsepower does thing have?" And I remember I would look at him all confused because I had no idea what horsepower was. I loved playing with boy's toys most though. My brother had a toy robot and I loved that too. But at the same time, it scared the crap out of me.

Just Another Day In Paradise

So here's how it is. My very own personal paradise would be located in the large state of Texas. There would definitely be a variety of attractive men. Even though it would be in the hot state of Texas, I would have pet penguins. I would have a room in my house that has a cold climate so they could survive. My whole bedroom would be zebra print. Zebra bedspread, zebra curtains, zebra rug. You name it, I'll have it. I would also have a personal chef that masters in all types of foods so they can make me whatever I want whenever I want. If I wanted mashed potatoes and gravy at 2 in the morning, then you better believe that I'll ask him/her to make it for me. :-)

Random Acts of Kindness

One time, Lizzy and I went around and taped nice things on random people's cars. The pieces of paper said stuff like "Smile! It's going to be a good day!" I don't remember what the other ones said but they were all uplifting and encouraging. We stuck one on this lady's car and she came out right after we did it so we got to see her reaction. She got in her car and sat down for a long time. We don't know why but we think it made her day hopefully! I would like to do that again sometime because it was nice knowing that we potentially made someone's day better!

We are family!

You're probably wondering why I chose this. It's actually an interesting story. A few years ago when my brother still lived at home, we got very bored. So we decided to toss a fun size Snickers bar back and forth across the living room. Well, my mom had an oil lamp similar to this one on the mantle behind where my brother was sitting. I threw it too high and it hit the top glass part and made it fall on the floor and shatter. We both just looked at each other and didn't know what to do. My mom was not very impressed.



This isn't a picture of my dog but it's the closest thing I could find. Her name is Maggie and her ears have longer black hair than this one. We got her at the beginning of Summer 2013 and she just turned a year old earlier this month! She can be a little brat sometimes but she is the best cuddle buddy.



When I was really young, my brother would scare me with his toy tarantula. My dad got so fed up with hearing me whine and cry about it. So he took my brother's toy tarantula and threw it in the woods behind our house. We never saw it again and my brother never went looking for it.



Over 5 years ago, my neighbor's grandson wrecked their Ford Explorer and my dad bought it off of them to scrap it and make some money. Then my dad changed his mind. He decided to turn it into a timber buggy. He took all the doors off and got it running again. We would take it riding in the woods and have a good ole time. We called it the "truggy".



This is a restaurant that is about 4 miles from our house. It is midway between Lacon and Spring Bay. My family has been going there for over 10 years. It is our favorite restaurant and I currently work there! We know the owners personally so it is always a pleasant experience when we go there to dine.

Keep the change, you filthy animal.

If I could be an animal in a second life, I would be a blue footed booby. Why? Well first off, the name is frackin' hilarious. Another huge reason why I chose this animal is because their feet are a really pretty color! There is no other bird out there with blue feet. I would really enjoy having blue feet because I would feel very unique. I like being different from others. Another big plus of being this animal is that I get to be a bird! I've always wanted to know what it's like to fly around and see everything from aerial view. I could travel the world for free and spy on people without getting weird looks.

Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen (NOT REALLY)

In my opinion, they probably chose the wrong senior to do the job because I go to a small school and most of the seniors in America go to a larger school. But I guess I can get the job done. The first thing I wanna say is high school is definitely not as bad as some people make it out to be. I get to see my friends everyday and goof off. How terrible is that? As long as you get your work done on time and do it well, high school is a walk in the park. I've found that most high school students that complain about high school are the ones that don't get their work done. That's their own fault for not making high school an easy experience.
