Future

This is just a random thought, but as I am thinking, next year will be my grade 12 year, grad year, and final year of high school. All along I was excited to graduate, if anyone asked me if I was nervous about my future, or what would happen after high school I'd reply " I am more excited I can't wait to get out of high school, start a new leg of my life". But as I see my boyfriend go through his first year of university, I realize it isn't as glamorous as it seems. It is a lot more difficult, and a lot more stress than I originally thought. As my high school years are coming to a close I realize I'll find out who my true friends are, have to work a million times harder than I ever have, and balance school, work and bills which is all new to me. As I pick which university I want to go to, what I want to do with the rest of my life, and if I'll live on my own or not, I realize that I have a big obstacle ahead of me. I know I will get through all of the change, but thinking of it now scared me, high school flew by, I blinked and it was practically over so I hope my grad year slows down a bit so I can enjoy the time I have left in high school. Although I'm scared of the future, I think I am ready for what is to come! Bring it on!

My Favourite Vacation



 
These pictures are from the best vacation I have ever been on. My family and I went to Hawaii in 2011, and it was unlike any other vacation I have ever been on. It was a time for my family to get closer, and be able to relax and catch some rays. I have some of my fondest memories with my sister, mother and father being on vacation in Hawaii. We had amazing weather, the sun so hot that on our first day at the beach I burnt the tops of my feet so badly it hurt to walk for the rest of my trip! Not my favourite memory, but something I've learnt from. Although it was a short 7 day trip, we got to go to the Honolulu zoo, Haunama bay, get surfing lessons, learn to snorkel, go to many malls, and got to take in all of the amazing sites in Hawaii. My favourite part of the trip was waking up every morning and just laying on the beach, and swimming. We were supposed to go to Hawaii again this year but do to illness we were not able to go on our trip. I hope to go back to Hawaii again soon as it is my favourite warm place, (partly because it is the only warm destination that I've been to). I would recommend going to Hawaii to anyone, it is a beautiful place, with lots of fun things to do, and if you can deal with hot sunny days it is like paradise!

Summer Dream

I am a die hard country music fan, I love all kind of music but country music is by far my favourite. I have a dream that the year I turn 18 and the consecutive years after I will make the drive up to Dauphin so I can pursue my dream of seeing some of my favourite country stars live. Unfortunately I am missing the best line up in years this year, which is really a shame. I am missing Luke Bryan which is probably the worst part of missing it because I would love to see him live. But as I'm getting closer to fulfilling my dream I get even more excited when I crank up the country station in my car! This is defiantly on my bucket list, and something I will do anything to be able to see. To me it's not just one party, it's matching the singers/bands to the words of songs that have gotten me through some of the most difficult times in my life.

My Favourite Way to Relax

I think the best way to relax on a rainy day, a cold day, or even a beautiful sunny day would be to be reading and having a cup of Starbucks beside you. There is no better way to take your mind of life's problems than to escape into a book!

My Addiction - Shopping

  So anyone who knows me, knows I am a shopping addict for sure. I love planning outfits, finding shoes, and just the feeling of shopping. My favourite place to shop would probably be Mall of America, because there is so much to look at and shop for there. I'd like to share with my blog readers my Top 10 favourite stores of all time, and stores that are worth checking out!

4. Spring - My favourite place to buy shoes, great styles at great prices.

This is a daily cre8te we did that I thought was such a fun project because it had a creative writing side, and a side that we could draw it in order to grey out point across
