Halloween

This year for Halloween, I am going trick or treating.You're never too old to trick or treat. If it's a celebrated holiday marked on the calendar, anyone should be able to participate. Halloween parties are fun, but some people just use that as an excuse to do stupid things. In elementary, my favorite costume that I wore was probably my vampire costume. I got to use fake blood on my mouth and wear fangs. My favorite candy to get in my bag would be Reese's peanut butter cups. I love carving pumpkins. I start carving as soon as I start seeing them being put out at stores and farms. I did carve a pumpkin this year. I carved out a cute picture of a penguin.

I am perfect...or am I?

Am I perfect? In my personal opinion, I am not a perfect person. There are many things I would like to change about myself. The main thing would be my self confidence. I should change this because not everyone looks like the models on TV or a Barbie, but we are all beautiful in our own way. I feel as if I would be a better person because I would finally be OK with who I am and what I look like and I would be a better person because of it. Self confidence goes a long way and knowing in your heart that you're OK with the way you look shows that you have pride in yourself and I think that everyone deserves to think that of themselves. Not a lot of people think that I have this issue with myself, but I guess they do now, considering I'm blogging about it.

My weekend

This weekend was pretty relaxing for me. Friday I went to the movies and saw "Sinister" after that, i don't think I want to see another scary movie. My boyfriend and I had to go to Walmart and buy the Disney movie "Despicable Me" so we could sleep at night. Saturday, we both had to wake up at six in the morning to go bowling for a Poole function in Ann Arbor. We bowled until about noon and got home at about two in the afternoon. We took a nap when we got back and waited until about five thirty to get ready for a dinner my Grandma wanted my family to go to. We went to Weber's in Toledo. The next morning was David's birthday so i gave him his birthday present and we went to lunch with his mom. We chose to go to Olive Garden at two. Sunday night I got home and the power was out at my house. It didn't come back on until about four a.m. That was my weekend.

FALL

My favorite activities in the fall would definitely be carving pumpkins! Making all different shapes for Jack o' lanterns and drinking apple cider. Carmel apples are also really good to enjoy during the fall. The color of the leaves are really pretty and raking them are fun because you can jump in the finished pile after you're done! Halloween is one of  my favorite holidays because you can dress up as whatever you want and get free candy! I love the change from summer to fall because instead of being hot and sweaty all the time, you can go outside and enjoy the cool weather in a hay wagon with your friends and go through corn mazes. My family usually goes up north during the fall and hangs out in the backyard at the bonfire. I love taking pictures of the fall leaves because the colors are so pretty and editing them in photoshop makes the picture pop! My favorite thing to do in the fall that you can't do any other time of year is carve pumpkins, eat Carmel apples, and make cooked pumpkin seeds :)
Happy Halloween!

Spirit Week!

Starting today; October first, is the first day of spirit week! Spirit week lasts five days and has different topics to dress up as throughout the week. I will be dressing up because i want my senior class to get as many points as possible to be able to go to cedar point. Today was sports day so I wore a Detroit Pistons jersey. Tuesday is camoflauge day, Wednesday is wacky Wednesday, Thursday is awareness day so we're wearing white for lung cancer, and Friday is Aggie spirit day so the school wears as much green as possible! Some of he teachers participate in spirit week and personally, I think the teachers should participate to show their Aggie pride but they shouldn't participate in the pep assembly because the pep assembly is for the students. Not the staff. The pep assembly is on Friday and takes up the last half of the day. All the students gather in the gym to cheer on the participating students. I've participated in the pep assembly once or twice but this year all the seniors get to participate. If asked, i would participate. The teachers, like i said, shouldn't be involved in float building or the pep assembly because it's for the students. Happy spirit week :) <3
