i've got sunshine on a cloudy day

okay wow, i'm really happy that i'm probably the sole most awful blogger ever. but i feel pretty intelligent because i just spent a good five minutes messing with the HTML thing and got this to look how i wanted it, booyaaah baby. seriously though, when it comes to commitment, i'm the worst. like, the crumbs at the bottom of the box of cereal. por ejemplo, i make a decision to not eat junk food while i'm in soccer season, it lasts two weeks. i'll wake up every morning and start my day with Jesus, i'd like to say that happens every day but it doesn't. i start a blog, and plan to blog once, maybe twice a week. yes, please observe the fact that it has been almost a month since the last entry. oops, fail. that being said, i'm completely opposite in my commitments with people. it's quite ironic actually, you'd think i'd be awful with them, but i'm actually not. i'm the kind of person that if i say i'm not going anywhere, well you better believe that i'll be stuck to our friendship like white on rice. some people don't believe me, but i can say now that there isn't one person who i've made a promise to stay in their life that i've broken that promise to. i take pride in the relationships in my life, and i try to use even the ugly ones to be Jesus.


on a new note, marcel the shell is a freaking legend. 

i know this is lame, but this shell is a inspiration. like, it's so happy with where it's at, that it sees no need to change itself. it's simply that, marcel the shell. nobody else. it makes me happy. plus, there's the fact that it is absolutely impossible to view this without cracking out a smile. and if you can watch it without feeling an internal sense of joy, i recommend therapy.

today i was watching disney channel while i worked out, because i'm almost 17 and i'm that cool, and shake it up was on. and there was this cute little nerd boy who i'd like to have as my best friend. his name is buddy handleson and i swear to goodness, he is the cutest little actor ever. ALSO, i'm pretty sure i've never heard a vocabulary as colorful as his. he makes me want to sit down and read the dictionary in my free time, he's just that nerdy. to be completely honest, i hope if i am ever a momma one day, one of my kids will be like him. sweet and smart. and maybe athletic too, but if not, i'd understand. 

waaaow. i just read that whole last paragraph and i realized how much of a crazy i am. i think the fact that it's 11:32 at night (which is well past my bed time) and that i had some delectable mango and peach white tea (mi favorita) with honey have made me extra exhausted. so i think i'm going to go drag myself upstairs, throw on my pjs, cuddle up with my favorite stuffed puppy and fall into a deep sleep. goodnight (:

i've got a tickle in my nose

i'm thoroughly convinced that my mom has super powers, but these aren't your run-of-the-mill, every day powers. they're like BAM, in your face, didn't see that one coming powers. for instance, she has this dust detecting sense. i've spent all morning cleaning house, and i mean cleaning house. in comes momma to the family room, and she's like, "bre, there's still dust on that. don't you see it?" no mom, actually i didn't, and my face was 6 inches from it, while you, on the other hand were standing on the opposite side of the room. wow, that's awesome. her next special ability is a little more complex, it follows along the lines of crazy-wisdom-that-mentally-slaps-my-kids-in-the-face-when-they're-dumber-than-rocks. yeah, it's kind of obnoxious. today, my brother and i had a mild.. okay, kind of serious dispute over money (which is dumb considering the fact he's 13 and i'm 16). anywho, it was something about him paying for some things at christmas time, and i had no intention on paying him back because he never said i had to, and today he insisted that i do because he "had the idea that i was going to pay him back anyways". i told him i was giving him 20$ and that was it, because i was angry and bitter and it was MY money. well, miss super wisdom comes flying in, and pulls the "if you had Jesus in your heart, you both would do the RIGHT thing" card, and in that moment, i knew i owed him quite a bit more than just 20$ and i needed to pay him back, and both mom and Jesus reminded me that when i do what is right in His eyes, i will recieve great rewards (i.e. -que the angels - ETERNITY IN HEAVEN! )

now for the rest of this snow day, i really haven't any idea what i'm going to do. i'm considering going outside and coming up with some new game to play since everything is slippery. hmm, just kidding.. that could end very tragically. DANGIT. i just remembered i have to finish my allegory for english. about the puritans. and as much as i love writing, this thing just ain't my cup of tea. it's more like a cup of sour milk. i think i'll think about summer time. where my heart just longs to be right now <3
