Aw, a cute little baby!

I stumbled upon this website called Fubiz - A Daily Dose of Inspiration. So I checked it out, and found this array of pictures of an adorable little baby sleeping, but in different poses and backgrounds surrounding it. It's very cute, trust me! It made my day! You can click on this link to see the adorable baby!

Above is a sneak peek of what I'm talking about! So CUTE, right!? : )

A little Español to my sábado

Last Saturday my family had a garage sale. Mid-way through the day a short, plump woman in her 50's or 60's came to browse at our sale. My dad overheard her speaking Spanish to her husband, and my dad told her that I spoke some Spanish. Her face completely lit up! She walked right over to me and started speaking Spanish:

"OH! Como estás?"
"Muy bien, gracias! Y Usted?"
"Bien, bien! Estudias el español en la escuela?"
"Si, pero solamente por cuatro años."
"AH! Hablas español muy bien! Oh, que bonita hija! Ahhh, bella, bella!"
"...gracias."

At this point, she was smiling like she couldn't be happier! She kept touching my arm and calling me Bella and Bonita. She told me she was so happy that American teenagers are studying Spanish. She seemed so proud of me! She was such a cute little lady, and it completely made my day!

Finding BIGFOOT!

For no reason at all except for the presence of boredom, my family started to watch Finding Bigfoot, a new show on Animal Planet on Sunday nights. I'll admit I did get sucked into watching it. But hey, it was just too funny! The part that made my day was this commercial for the new show. "I do think there's a squatch in these woods..."

Bella y la Bestia

Walking into my last class of the day on a Friday, and hearing that we get to watch Beauty and the Beast in Spanish completely made my day!

♫♪ ¡Bella y Bestia son! ♫♪

BOB vs TOM!

Most of us are familiar with TOMS. If you're not familiar with them, they are shoes you can order online that are sold for a good cause. For every pair of Toms you order, the company sends another pair of shoes to a poverty-stricken area of the world. The company started in 2006, and they are a growing trend.

These, on the other hand, are BOBS. Bobs are made by Sketchers, and they boast that they "Help the World." They sell for about the same price and they look...well, EXACTLY. LIKE. TOMS. They started selling them just recently.

It amazes me what people do sometimes. It gave me a good laugh at the shoe store, though. And it kind of made my day.

Netherlands, Malaysia, Iran, OH MY!

I love that handy little "Stats Button" that shows you views on your blog and from what website or country they came from. How neat is it that someone from Iran, Russia, Netherlands, Indonesia, South Africa, South Korea, Malaysia and...well Canada (that's pretty close to where I live, so it's not that neat I guess)...viewed this blog. I mean, is this for real? This is crazy! It is just so cool that people from all around the world could be reading these words that I am typing right now! Oh, I just can't get over this! WOW!


Thank you, international followers! And please, don't be afraid to leave a comment! (I speak a little español, if that helps?) I hope you all have a fantastic day, because you all just made mine great! : )

Slug Bug Twin!

This is Bertie. I got her a few months ago from some British people living in the US, moving to Switzerland. They had English accents, and therefore I call Bertie by her British-accented name: "Berh-tea!"

Last week while driving home from school, another identical lime green vw bug was coming from the opposite direction. I thought, hm...a car just like mine! Well as they got closer, I saw two girls in the car frantically waving at me! It's my twin car! I waved back.

A moment as little as this made me smile. It made a boring day just a little bit more exciting. And that's why this moment just completely made my day.
