I'm thinking of using this blog not only as a form of expression, but also to advertise. i'm beginning to think that selling pieces of jewelry i make would be a nice way to get some extra cash, and with being able to put up pictures and descriptions, it sounds like a great idea. also, facebook seems like a good way to get the word out. 

p.s. new readers! try feeding the fish. it's awesome :)

p.p.s. how crazy were the thunderstorms yesterday? apparently all the power went out in hudson. not my house though! guess it's cuz i live so close to stow

Vacation adventures

Oh, family vacations are wonderful things. They can give you the most INTERESTING things to blog about :D haha so let's get started...

The trip up wasn't as interesting as the trip back. The most interesting thing about going down south is as soon as you're out of the good 'ol Ohio, you see the....erm... culture? Not 50 feet out of Ohio you begin to see them. The billboards. they're only 2 kinds. fireworks and "adult entertainment facilities".  The names are rediculous. you would not BELIEVE how rediculous some of the names were. my personal favorite "Southern 'X'-posture" however, my all-time favorite was "Bimbo's fireworks" (Bimbo was a clown haha). 

Other than the billboards, the most interesting thing i saw was a sign on the beach that said "Poking, prodding, and molesting animals are prohibited" it kinda creeped me out because apparently enough people molest animals where they need a sign to prevent it....

Hey everyone :)

i will be on vacation for about a week so i will not be making posts. when i get back i will tell all about the trip and interesting attractions in each state (last year we saw a guy who looked like a chubby elvis in tennesee)

welcome to the last day of sophmore year

So today i was riding my bike, minding my own business, with mary kate. We get to the first stoplight and stop. The light turns green. she goes. i fall over and scrape my shoulder, elbow, and hand. WHY?! Here's the kicker....my bike petal fell off. so after recruiting mary kate's brother and a wrench, we were ready for take 2. And we rode to dairy queen and had a lovely time.

For all of you with one day left, good luck on exams!!!

Exam Week: day 1

It's funny how my exam week started off with a story. A story of bravery. However, the heroine of this story will not be me. 

This morning, i woke up and went downstairs. I look at the wall and say to myself.... why is there a BAT in my house?!??! Turns out, it was a moth, but this thing was HUGE!! Anyone can tell you, i am not afraid of bugs. Giant moths, however, make me upset because they try to fly into your ears and eat your brains. So after eating my breakfast on the other side of the kitchen, i ran up to my room and waited for my mom to get up so she could kill it. but when we got downstairs it was gone. now i'm really paranoid that it's gonna sneak up on me and eat me. 

exams were ok. if i get eaten by a moth today, at least i dont have to take my exams for math, bio, or Spanish.
