Finally forced my sister to watch Gravity Falls and this is the text she sends me later that night... 

There is no fighting Gravity!! (was that to punny?)

The Tempest

Look what I found! Embarrassing pictures from my first ever play The Tempest! Yup I played a fat drunk dude. Even though I had no clue what I was saying or doing it was still a fun experience and helped open the gates of the acting world for me :)

Beauty

Remember to take the time to appreciate beauty no matter what form it manifests its self in. Doing this can breath new life into you and help you through your life.

To often we can go through our lives with the conveyor belt mind set, everything gets boring and mundane because we are so set on getting... where exactly? That is when we need to remember to look for those beautiful things around us. Beauty surrounds us in so many ways every day. Art, nature, music, writing, people, animals, architecture, FOOD! Just open your eyes!

My personal definition of beauty is anything that makes you go WOW, SIGH, or just smile like a simpleton. Pretty simple right? Here are some things that I find really beautiful.



What is your definition of beauty?

Kid Forever!

Some days you just need to act like a kid. Growing up can get so serious and stressful that its nice to pretend you are still a kid to blow off steam. Just do whatever comes to your mind, don't filter your ideas because you are supposed to act grown up or mature. Today I ran across the street (yes we waited to cross) hopping on the white lines only. Oh and I danced like a maniac at Theater. Be yourself and don't change for anyone!

Spirit Animal Family Portrait

A while ago everyone in my family decided on a spirit animal for themselves, and I thought it would be fun to try to draw a family portrait :)



You probably can't read the names and might not even be able to tell what everything is so let me explain...

Magpie = Aunt Tina
Spider (hanging from magpie) = Raef (her son)
Baby pygmy goat = Mimi
Koala = Lily
Cat (he decided later he was a ferret) = Josh
Brown Bear = Me
Hamster on bears nose = Chloe
St. Bernard = Dad
Fluffy Cat = Mom
Wild Cat = Thalia
Otter in a barrel = Howl (Tina's other son)

I suggest doing this for fun, because it was really fun :) and funny to see how your family would look.

Comment your spirit animal!

My Number/Color/Letter Theory

I don't know how many other people think like this but at least for me each number, and some times letter, is connected to a color and gender. I know its weird. Its just when I think about that one thing I
think about the others as well. Its like each number has a personality to me. I just thought I'd share and see how it compares to you're guys thoughts.

Every one of these falls under either warm or cold in my mind.

	WARM +	COLD -
Numbers	All Even	All Odd
Letters	A,B,G,H,I,J,M,O,P,Q,R,W	C,D,E,F,K,L,N,S,T,U,V,X,Y,Z
Colors	Red, Orange, Indigo, Violet	Yellow, Green, Blue

This is what color and gender I associate with each number... 

Number	Color	Gender
1	white	boy
2	pink	girl
3	lime green	boy
4	brown	boy
5	blue	boy
6	red	girl
7	orange	girl
8	purple	boy
9	black	boy

My favorite number is 56 which is 5+6. Blue + Red. (That is why it feels like a patriotic number to me.) It is also cold + warm. boy + girl.

Comment your thoughts. Do you do this too? How does your's differ from mine if you do...?

Slytherin Pride!

I'm a Slytherin. Shocker!! (or maybe not)
I seriously don't have a big "One house better than the other" attitude, my attitude is more like they are all great, and fit different people for different reasons. I feel like I fit with the definition of the majority of the Slytherin house. So here are some Slytherin pride quotes... because why not?



Comment with your house and a reason you feel you belong to it...
and if I have any fellow Slytherin out there that would be great to know ;)

Our Studio Films

I spent the evening reminiscing with my sister about all these old videos we used to make. We were all soooo tiny and are voices were soooo squeaky. I am going to regret reminding everyone about these but I don't care right now because old memories should be shared.

So check out OurStudioFilms and comment any memories you have connected to them. (Or if this is completely new to you comment your current thoughts ;)

My Little Pony Sick Day

Logic Puzzle Videos

Sometimes when its really late at night you just have the need to watch videos about logic puzzles... If you ever have that urge here are some fun ones to try to figure out. Even if you don't pause it (because you are dead tired) to figure it out yourself its still fun to watch how they do it.

1. Bridge Riddle
2. Hat Riddle
3. Eye Color Logic Puzzle
4. Temple Riddle
5. Einstein's Riddle

If you did figure any of them out without help comment which one. Let us know that you are smarter than me :P

Cats... need I say more?

Cats are defiantly the better pet (before you get super offended let me add) for my house. They are mostly self reliant, can play and snuggle with you at times, but also require their personal space and time alone. Lets just say I highly relate to cats, they are the introvert of pets.

They are also very weird, another way I can relate...
