Wish list

I really like valentines day. I've never had a valentine before, so I'm pretty excited! I just love the idea of telling people you care about, that you care about them! AND, you get chocolate. There really is nothing better. I'm going to be whipping up some  heart cakes similar to the one posted here! I am a huge sucker for festive clothes, so I have quite a few heart dresses I bought as valentine gifts to my self over my lonely life. (just kidding) I think it is important to remember to always love yourself. Even if you don't have a special someone on February 14th, you yourself are still very special. So go out and treat yourself! Can I get an amen?!

How will you be celebrating this day??

I love this, if I love someone more than cake it's a really big deal.

Senior Pictures!

Tomorrow afternoon, weather permitting, I should be getting my senior pictures done! We're going down town to some neat looking places! I'm really excited, also nervous. Savannah wants to be a photographer so I've (I'm not sure if you could call it modeling) modeled for her many times but this is a different. I do pull some pretty weird faces on occasion. 

The girl taking my pictures actually has a blog, if you are interested! She takes really pretty pictures.

Happy Wednesday!

Nostalgia: First Car

My brother's car, my very first car, has been totaled. They are taking it away very soon. I'm kinda sad.. I can't believe that happened. It's so smashed. Darn people!! Falling asleep while driving! Jeremy (brother) is very lucky he did not get hurt. They hit going 40 mph, 64 kph. 

It's so sad seeing your first car all messed up, I don't even know why. First cars are just so cool in America. It was a little blue 2001 Honda Civic. 

We got this a month before I could drive. My brother who is 1 year older than me could just drive. He kept braking his arm and couldn't take the test, haha. 

She sure was a beaut. 
Day we bought it

Love always,

Alright

This song has made my life a little bit better today. 

I highly recommend giving it a listen!
Monday's are very hard.
I have a paper of Mark Twain's, "Letter to the Earth" due tomorrow. Meh. I really dislike Mark Twain. His writing is just not my favorite. And due to the fact he was born around here we must for some reason read everything he has ever written. Same thing goes for Harry Truman. So many museums. 

I am reading a book I do like, "Skylark." It's like magic + dystopian world. I read a bunch, maybe I can post some "what I'm reading" like Dainty Squid does!

Love Always.

Super Bowl Sunday!

Well I am not legally aloud to talk about the game, as that would be breaking NFL copyright. I will say it was good. Do people out side of America watch it? Care about it, ect? It's a HUGE deal here. Like, no one in my family likes The Ravens or the 49ers, but we still watched the entire game. I've always wondered what things are like in other places. It's one reason why I really want to travel. 

As someone who has lived in the same house their entire life I've noticed how easy it is to think everywhere is exactly like it is here. I mean of course there are McDonalds and WalMarts everywhere, but I'm talking the little things. Whether it be calling a pepsi Soda, pop, or coke. And just seeing what other people value and believe in. I really think that's interesting. 

Did you watch the game?

Love Always,
Jessica

Ground Hogs day!

I have no idea whether or not he saw his shadow. Or if a ground hog should be our figure of authority on weather. 

Savannah was in a play today! She was Mrs. Drysdale, in the Beverly Hillbillies! They did really good! I love seeing all the kids at school pulling together to make some thing really cool like that. I also think it's so cool how many of the kids come to the shows. (No one comes to Orchestra concerts. And ours are free!) But I'm not bitter... :D

This morning my brother got hit on his way to work by a guy that fell asleep at the wheel. Both of them were okay; however, both cars are pretty messed up, if not totaled. He's got some whiplash but it's not too bad. Luckily the man had insurance, so everything will be taken care of. They were both wearing seat-belts too, thank heavens. WEAR SEAT BELTS. 

Hope everyone had a nice safe day.

Love Always,Jessica

Today!

Today was so great!

I got to miss school again and go to this really fancy lunch for female athletes  The Olympic sand volley ball Gold Medalist was the speaker! The food was AMAZING and I was with my tennis girls who I miss, oh so much!


I really am very short, the girl I'm next to is normal sized. The girl on the far right is my doubles partner, her name is Jessica too! She's taller than me..usually. Haha

I can finally post an outfit! And alas everything is forever 21, 'cept tights which were probably target. 


Classy food shot. I don't know what this is, but I want to know how to make it. YUM.


After that me and the boy braved the cold weather and took some  film pictures at a park! We also went to see Warm Bodies. IT IS SO GOOD. GO SEE IT. RIGHT NOW. So much fun. We came back and watched the Audrey Hepburn movie Funny Face. It's real good too. I love movies, if you couldn't tell.

What have you been up to these days?

Love Always,
Jessica
