In an attempt to keep up my blogs about what made my day great I’m going to tell you about today. Continue reading “Today”
[Day 35] My roots are showing!
For the first time in three hours, I have down time, so I’ve chosen this small victory to write today’s blog. If you’re wondering what I’ve been doing for three hours, I’ll tell you. Actually, I’ll tell you whether you’re wondering or not. I’ve been at my high school for three hours, working on the school paper. Normally I wouldn’t mind, but since I didn’t get any sleep last night, I’m a bit out of it. Continue reading “[Day 35] My roots are showing!”
[Day 34] Why you gotta act like you know when you don’t know?
By the beginning of 7th grade, I had grown bored with myself. After walking the track around the football field for almost all of my first year of middle school, I’d run out of interesting things to discuss. There was only so much to be said about basketball, language arts, and fantasy books, especially when the only contributor in such conversations only had one perspective. The lonely perspective. Continue reading “[Day 34] Why you gotta act like you know when you don’t know?”
[Day 33] It’s thundering right now :)
Dear Sam (last name removed to protect the innocent),
Usually I start off my letters with a brief description of who I am, but you already know who I am, so we’ll skip that step. On August 19th of this year, I started a year-long blog project entitled “365 Days of Bri†to rediscover myself. I’ll add the details at the end of this letter, but for now I’ll just explain your part. Every day of the week I have a different task to do, at once I’ve completed it I have to write about the experience in the blog. On Sundays like today, my task is to write a thank you letter to someone I’ve never met. Continue reading “[Day 33] It’s thundering right now :)”
Bri’s Own World dot com
Coming here always brightens my day. To see all of my friends writing away about their lives and their thoughts is a real treat. And, too see Bri’s studious pursuit of her 365 project is wonderful. It reminds me that I wish I had the drive to take on a real project like this in stead of my usual nonsensical blather about learning how to bike better or researching more cars or accepting who I am and embracing it. Though those are great goals and are incredibly fun to attain, they’re not the kind of thing that is going to further me. Other than accepting who I am, that is. So I’ve decided I will copy Bri and her wonderful project and post something about what, or who, made a difference in my day. As I am not studious like Bri though, I cannot promise that this will happen everyday. I will try though! Continue reading “Bri’s Own World dot com”
[Day 32] You’re a Weird One, Mr. Grinch
Sorry for the crap video. But… I lost four pounds!!
[Day 31] Just don’t play Twister with her
The more I think about my friends, the more I realize why they’re so diverse. It’s because each one represents a different side of my personality. Rachel represents the writer and loyal friend in me. Craig represents the crazy and political side of me. Bart represents the callous but caring side of me. Kelli represents the slightly insane but introspective side of me. With this in mind, I guess Mia would represent the competitive side of me. Continue reading “[Day 31] Just don’t play Twister with her”
[Day 30] I’ve Learned: Month 1
Every month I’m going to start reflecting on what I’ve learned from my experiences. That way, I’ll have a better handle when I get to the year mark, and reflecting and self analyzing is good for the soul. Continue reading “[Day 30] I’ve Learned: Month 1”
[Day 29] My throat is burning
I am out of shape. I’m not going to try and sweet talk my way around this. I am so out of shape I pant walking to class. When I go up the short flight of stairs in my house, I have to talk really fast and pause a lot afterwards so no one can hear me gasping for air. Yes, my dear (2) readers. I am THAT out of shape.
