I wish...

I wish i could just lay here and watch the stars.
Let the warmness wrap me up like a bear hug from a dearest friend.
Maybe all my worries would fly away.
Maybe life would seem a little simpler
And just for once, i could escape all the things that drag me down.

I wish i could just lay here and dream about a new day
Let the sun shine down like a smile from a dearest friend.
Maybe I could forget about today.
Maybe life could be imagined in a different way.
And just for once I could laugh and be care free.

I wish I could just sit here and hold you close.
Let the love from inside you radiate to me.
Maybe i could just lose myself in the moment.
Maybe life would hold a deeper meaning
and just for once i could know where i belong.

3rd Snow Day....

Today is our 3rd snow day in a row & considering we didnt have school on Friday this makes for a 6 day weekend so far!! Even though i like the fact of no school-i am getting BORED out of my living mind! So far my boredom has resulted in: Hot fudge pudding cake, 2 drawings of people, going through my shirt drawer, dusting {That has to be a first!!!!}, laundry, wasting my life away on my laptop, finishing the series of books i was reading-making life even more boring because i need to go to the library!, taking naps, spending quality time with the sister who is turning into quite the goose, making chicken noodle soup & of course the dishes and regular stuff around the house. ahh the joys of being stuck at home! :P

-the bored girl.
P.S. 8 days till my birthday <3

Livin the Life

Been having a busy life, thats an amazing thing! I'm liking this blogspot deal, getting back into blogging now, so hopefully i keep all you readers interested :)

• We didn't have school on Friday so on Thursday after school i went to Shawnae's. Got to ride her super crowded bus! me-an i'm glad no one lives on our route :P Then Jaselle came an picked us up & we picked up Lexi and......went to town! how did you guess? Picked up Blake (Jaselle's cousin from Minneapolis) from the airport. Chilled awhile & then went home.
• Friday Jaselle & Blake came and picked me up & then we met at Lexi's and Lexi, Zach & Cy came with us. wow. what an interestin day. hahaa. I think i havent laughed that hard in a long time! Pretty much hit up all the stores & just messed around {that meaning you really dont want to know what we did cuz it might scare you ;)} all day-because we are kids with nothing better to do.
• Discovery of the weekend--I am a really laid back person. :D
• Saturday had to go with the family because according to dad "it builds character, and you need some more". Oh okay dad! Went to Brookings-living history fair, art museum, an Ag museum. Found out the art galleries can be real strange!!
• Sunday church & yadayada. normal sunday. nathan & wanda came over in the evening.
• Today there isnt school because its a snow day! YEAH! In spite of my attempts to do nothing-mom had other plans. A nap sounds pretty good right now tho ;)
• I found out that i have not a clue how to explain the differences between the Apostolic Lutheran Churches..because really i dont know myself.
• Does anyone know an easier way to put the pics on the blog & write by them without having to move them all & mess everything else up? DO i have to write after the pics get uploaded?!

This awesome telephone booth :D at the Ag museum.

The place has awesome green windows & doors.

hmm yep a doorbell.

Highlight of the day. Milking the fake cow. mmhmmm!

Meet the tin can man!

Everyone has some sort of creative gene. For me, it's writing & photography. For some it's painting or sculpting, singing or playing piano. Could be anything. Anyway i'm always in awe of people who are talented at what they do. I'm in Art I this semester..hmmm. i discovered i am NOT an artist which is sort of funny. but really everything i have done hasn't been the best! Until the tin can man!! Which really i didnt know what i was doing, but she loved the shading..hehe. anyway in my practice drawings i made mini tin can mans. an they were cutttteeee...so i saved them & put them on the bottom of my laptop :)
Here is the littlest of them all ;)

Onions have cool circle shapes. heheh.

"twas eating my orange this morning & the juice squirted out :) thought it was cool anyhow.

There is a bit of my randomness for your day :)

Love,brooke
