Best Odd Compliments

Being best friends with Skye has changed me.. I now really enjoy awkward moments.. like she does hahah. I also really love Daily Odd Compliments. We have this tradition of texting each other odd compliments when we're bored, or just cuz. She always wins with the funnier ones.














So next time you greet someone with a compliment on their amazing cooking skills, or their gorgeous sequined shirt.. be a little creative and use one of these compliments instead! Here are my very faveeee

My 2012 Highlights in Photos


Couldn't have said it better..
Did 2012 treat ya well? I had quite the amazing year..
In January I received the fantastic news of my winning the national essay contest I entered. I got first place and won an ipad!

One of the best days of my life- March 23rd. 
My sister, dad and I went to the midnight premiere of the Hunger Games. Amazing.
I went to school (more like slept through) and then to the Blake Shelton concert! 



I spent Easter with the my family..  one of the best days :)
Along with all the other family reunions.

The last few months of school is tennis, tennis, tennis.
great season with the gang

Some of the most inspiring people of my life graduated in May.
I have to admit I cried during the graduation...

Over the summer I had the best pie ever- Raspberry Custard.
Not only was it the best pie.. it was, and still is, the best dessert I've ever had.
Yes, that day was a highlight haha.

One of the best days of summer vacation- 4th of July
I worked most of the day but I loved meeting the tourists from all over the world.

Pretty Little Liars. Nuff said.

You all know my best friend Skye (she's the one going to Belgium next year).
When I think back at my summer.. I remember working, country music, and adventuring with this girl.


 All the great family and friend gatherings.

Crossing things off my bucket list!

BREAKING DAWN PART 2 PREMIERE

Thank you Lord for granting me the privilege of living another great year.
I'll make ya proud!

Free Time

I haven't had this much free time in so long. It's weird not having a huge project due, or a few essays to write or a book to finish before school on Monday. I have no real obligations this Christmas break and it's soo nice. I. Feel. Free. Like this---
Now I just need Leonardo DiCaprio ;)
 I plan to finally get all my Pinterest DIY craft dreams started and completed with my sisters.

Yes, I will build my very own Narnia in my home over break.



I also need to finish my drawing.

and make these gems.

aaand beg my little sister to make this for me

decorate ornamentsss

Costume makeup :)


I shall also find the patience and motivation to paint these.. but I've said that for years. Prob not gonna happen.

I didn't get this sweater btw but it's alright. I'll just get it for myself
However, I did receive a bunchhh of scarves. That part of my dream list did come true haha
(You can see the rest of the list here)
My favorite gifts- nice boots and a fancy keyboard. I've been playing it as much as possible
I feel like a freaking Beethoven when I do play it. Good feelings.
Please enjoy the rest of your break with your family. 
Feel free to jimmy jam to my latest favorite jimmy jams.

Ultimate favorite music video as of yesterday.

I love the synchronization and symmetry!! The video is a little weird for me... I like it.

We wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Dear Santa...


The other day my mom asked me what I wanted for Christmas. I drew in a long breath and prepared myself to give her a long response.. but I had nothing to say! I couldn't think of what I wanted for Christmas!! Never in my life have I hesitated when someone asked me what I wanted. Even over text it took me a while to reply to my friends with an answer. I don't look at this as something bad though. To me, this just means that I'm content with my life and everything I have :)
Still, I compiled a little list of things I wouldn't mind receiving this year haha.. and I've been a pretty good kid this year :)
Scarves!
Breaking Dawn Calender
Cute clothes (like the ones on Pinterest hahaha!!)




Huckleberry jam (I'm obsessed)
Jewelry, duh.
Crazy print leggings (not this pattern but you get the point)
THIS sweater hahahaha :) :)

Lately

I've been... 
STRESSED (and I'm not even in college yet, gah).
Reading: Dr. Faustus, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and A Tale of Two Cities (the latter is soo good. I must admit I fell asleep reading it a few times because it's so descriptive. The ending though... I absolutely love Carton) Can ya tell I'm in Brit Lit?
Watching: nothing at all, no time
Eating: celery with peanut butter!
Listening: ACDC and Bon Jovi <3
Something funny: the other day I asked my little sister a probing question.. "If you could sum up your life to me in two sentences what would you say? Go!" And she hesitantly replied, "uhh.. I don't know who I am!" Hahaha, but really. It's quite a tough question. I'm not sure how I would answer it.
Something I've learned: Today in Brit Lit we had an activity in which we had to insult each other. yep. We were told to insult other classmates. However, the insults needed to be words that Shakespeare used in his plays.
Here are a few I came up with...
"You lumpish, half-faced maggot-pie."
"Thou vain, onion-eyed measle."
"You infectious, fen-sucked joint-head."
Let's start using these to degrade others!! Hahaha jkjk
Wishing: to touch the moon...
 
 
Also, my best friend was accepted to travel to Belgium as a foreign exchange student!! Ahh!! Anyone know what Belgium's like??

Wish me luck on my piano recital,
Abbs
