I hung out with Summer, Katie and Kelsey today. We had lots of fun and took lots of pictures... of course!

Thank you Katie for letting me take a picture of your beautiful ring.

For some reason I really like taking pictures of me or other people hanging upside from furniture.

Well Lauren and I were home by ourselves for a while today and got pretty bored.

So this is what we did.

=)

Katie, Allyn and I went to go see Bride Wars after school today. It was very fun!

We had the whole theater to ourselves during the entire movie and I loved it. We took the bus there (hence the bus stop picture), and were surrounded by moss. So I copied Katie and took a picture of it. I know it's kind of random, but it's also kind of cool.

Today was also the last day of finals.... YES!

I could actually see the blue skies today. Even though it was still freezing, it actually felt pretty good. I walked home a little later by myself and enjoyed the fresh, crisp air.

But today didn't go too well. I took my math final and felt really bad about it and that made my whole day kind of bad.

I still have one more final tomorrow in biology and I'm definitely not looking forward to it.

100/365

Last night I spent like three hours studying for my math final and getting all of my notes together. It was about 10pm and I realized that I still had to take a picture for the day. So I decided to show you my big pile of math stuff that was all spread out.

*all I needed was my math (ew), phone, chapstick, two pieces of dove chocolate that my mommy gave me, and my gmail chat open (with an occasional look at facebook).

I also had a pretty big bowl of ice cream to keep me awake too!

Everything was very blue today, that's why my pictures are very blue. But I liked it.

The only thing I don't like is how stinking cold it is. I just can't wait for summer!!

I think my pictures will also be better when the sun starts coming out and it gets warmer..

just sayin'

98/365

Isaac came over today and the four of us all just hung out. We watched National Treasure and 

The Master of Disguise, because watching movies is what we do best!

It was just a relaxing day!

97/365

I didn't really do anything yesterday. Here's a picture of my piano, and two pictures that Colleen took. They're of my arm and peace bracelet while we were bored as heck in English.

96/365

I wasn't feeling good today. So I went home from school early, and my mommy bought me flowers!

These really cute little roses in a pink bucket thing. They smell really good!

Thanks mom!

I think this might be one of the most random pictures ever. I mean seriously, how more random could I get.

So really, I have absolutely no idea why I took this picture and that means that I don't have a story behind it either. I was just walking around my house trying to find something to take a picture of and looked up and say these tea cups.

-THE END-

94/365

Have you ever looked into your fridge and said that there's nothing to eat? but really there's just nothing that seems good enough to eat at that moment?

And then pretty much the only options are junk food or something healthy right?

well that's how I felt today. I opened the refrigerator and stood there for what seemed like forever just staring inside and seeing absolutely nothing. The only thing that stuck out was the delicious pudding pack that I wanted really bad, but then I thought that I should eat something healthy and the fruit bowl was on the other side.

So after all that (haha)... I just went with the pudding. And this whole dilemma is what inspired my picture(s) for today.

You know what happened today.

Barack Obama was inaugurated and became our 44th president!!!

YEAH!

92/365

Underneath the moon, underneath the stars

here's a little heart for you

up above the world, up above it all

here's a hand to hold on to

but if I should break, if I should fall away

what am I to do?

I need someone to take, a little weight 

or I'll fall through

you're just the one that I've been waiting for 

I'll give you all that I have to give and more

but don't let me fall

take a little time, walk a little line

got the balance right

give a little love, gimme just enough

so that I can hang on tight

we will be alright, I'll be by your side

I won't let you down

But  I gotta know, no matter how things go

that you will be around

you'll be the one that I'll love forever more

I'll be here holding you high above it all

but don't let me fall

"Don't let me Fall"

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

LIfe is a maze and love is a riddle

I don't know where to go, can't do it alone

I've tried and I don't know why

Slow it down, make it stop or else my heart is going to pop

'cause it's too much, yeah it's a lot to be something I'm not

I'm a fool out of love 'cause I just can't get enough

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

Life is a maze and love is a riddle

I don't know where to go, can't do it alone

I've tried and I don't know why

I'm just a little girl lost in the moment 

I'm so scared but i don't show it

I can't figure it out, it's bringing me down

I've know I've got to let it go and just enjoy the show

The sun is hot in the sky just like a giant spotlight 

The people follow the signs and synchronize in time

It's a joke nobody knows, they've go a ticket to the show

"The Show"

I can't believe that I haven't listened to my iPod for two days. I think it might be a record. I just need to charge it and listen to it more, then I will start the picture/song connection thing again. Most likely tomorrow. I even got a few song suggestions. So I'm very excited to come up with some more ideas.

Today was just a relaxing day. I was at Katie's house this morning and just chilled, then I spent the day at Isaac's house laughing and watching a couple movies.

oh how I love movies!

also we got new furniture today. This couch, chair thing is part of it and I really like it!

89/365

once again i don't have a song that goes along with this picture. But yesterday katie and I were listening to lots of music and one song that just kept coming up was "Single Ladies" or whatever it's called by Beyonce.

"If you liked it then you should've put a ring on it..."

I had lots of fun with my bud Katie!!!

88/365

I don't have a song for this one yet because I can't find the Inkheart soundtrack yet. But once I find the song that I know I'm going to use I'll post it. 

Isaac and I went to go see an advanced showing of the movie Inkheart on Thursday. My dad got two free tickets for it, and the movie doesn't even come out for another like two weeks. It was pretty good. I thought it would be better, but it was still a fun night.

Oh and if you don't know what Inkheart is, it's originally a book about how when the main guy reads out loud the stories come to life. Characters and events can come out of the book, but when that happens, something or someone from the real world goes into the book.

so yea... go look it up or something. it's hard to explain, but the book is really good!

Please don't be so naive

You know you're not fooling anyone

You're not as tough as you think

with dirty second hands, the dirty second hands

Can't get nothing for free

It becomes to predictable

You start fighting to breathe

The dirty second hands, your dirty second hands

Here's the face of everything that breaks you down

Now you face the face of everything that breaks you down.

"Dirty Second Hands"

-Switchfoot

wow! I just realized after I took the picture and wrote this that I posted a switchfoot song yesterday. Oh man! Well, I do love them. But I won't do another one for a while. It's time to mix things up a little bit.

p.s. I just want to say that this song is absolutely AMAZING live!

oh and I also realized that I only used one picture today...that's different

What's it gonna take

to slow us down

to let the silence spin us around?

What's it gonna take

to drop this town?

We've been spinning at the speed of sound.

Stepping out of those convenience stores

what could we want but more more more?

From the third world

to the corporate core

we are a symphony of modern humanity

If we're adding to the noise

turn of this song

If we're adding to the noise

turn off your stereo, radio, video

I don't know...

"Adding to the Noise"

So I decided that for a while my pictures are all going to have a meaning. Or at least go along with something from that day. I know that's kind of what I've been doing, but recently I've just been taking a picture for that day without having it have a meaning or at least something to go along with it. So, yesterday I decided that each picture I take for a while is going to go along with a song that really stood out to me that day or has been for a while. Whether it shows the song lyrics literally, or just my own interpretation of it. But I'm just hoping for more creativity and ideas, and I think this might work.

Recently I have been into Taylor Swift and listening to her new CD 'Fearless'. I never thought I would be this into her, but for some reason I can't stop listening to it... No joke, I have listened through all the songs so many times in the past two weeks, I can't even count how many times. It's all I have been listening to.

The title song of the CD ('Fearless') has been stuck in my head for a very long time. And the one line 

"And I don't know how it gets better than this

You take my hand and drag me head first

Fearless

And I don't know why but with you I'd dance

In a storm in my best dress

Fearless"

so to make a long story short, the last part is what inspired these pictures (for yesterday)

let me know what you think

Yesterday, Graham and Lauren and I just stayed home by ourselves after church. Isaac and Mejee ended up coming over to do some filming that involved Graham. It was really fun. We were all just chillin'...

I was trying to get my homework done while they were at my house, but that didn't really happen.

At least I tried!

83/365

Yesterday I was so happy because I got to hang out with my 'big sister' Stephanieeeee!!! We haven't really seen each other in a long time and we always have a great time when we're together.

We decided to go get some delicious starbucks and then head over to the beach. but just our luck, the beach was closed to cars. SO, we just drove around and ended up at Barnes & Noble. It was pretty awesome because we just sat in the children's section on these little kids seats and read each other children's books.

Our favorite book that we read was called Chicken Cheeks. You should read it, then you'll know why we enjoyed it so much.

I'll give you a hint...We learned about animal butts!

Youth Group was on Friday- Man, I felt like I hadn't been in forever.

But we went to Spiros which was awesome! then hung out at the deLangen's house.

Christine drove me and Janell over there because we didn't want to ride in the van with all the crazy people.

Janell, Tyler and I all hung out tonight.

I love hanging out with those two!

Yesterday Katie and I each had a drive for drivers ed. I had my third (parallel parking) and she had her fourth (freeway). It was a really exciting time actually...hahaha

So I know you can't really tell what the heck this picture is of. But it's Katie driving while on the freeway. We thought it would be a cool thing to take sneak pictures of each other while the other one was driving. So this is mine of her....

It was really hard to make it a good picture because it was all dark and everything. But at least I took one.

80/365

Yesterday I had no idea what to take a picture of. I got home around 9:30pm from Once Upon a Week and was starting to go to bed around 10. I went into my parents' room to say goodnight when I told them that I still had to take a picture and I didn't know what to do. So they just said take a picture of us...

and this is what I got.

hahaha, oh my parents!

79/365

PEACE

So on Monday in English our teacher asked us to write down a wish that we had for the new year.

The only word I wrote down was PEACE with a peace sign at the end. 

I said that I just want to see and experience PEACE, in the world, in my life and just in general.

and also I'm just really into PEACE things right now so it's been on my mind.

First day back at school. Not good!

It snowed again and that just made everything bad. But it was good seeing people after the super long break.

These pictures are totally random I know. I just liked how it was like.... bare stools, then....occupied!

haha

77/365

I can't believe that it's snowing again...I just can't believe it!

76/365

Went to Pike Place Market today...and that's all I have to say

75/365

Last night my family went to go see the Beauty and the Beast musical as a late Christmas thing. I love plays and musicals so I really enjoyed it. It was really good!

This is what the stage looked like. It was very pretty.

I straightened my hair last night too, this is when half of it was straight and half was curly

Happy 2009!!

I spent the first day of the new year with Isaac at their house. We watched a couple movies, played Kung Fu Panda on the x-box and I got my bug kicked at uno. I love their cat...he's so cute!
