The Pink Wall.

This wall is the only one that I feel is nowhere near complete. There is a lot of space near my cealing and on the side by my computer I really want to be filled. I have three dinosaurs above my door adn I was thinking about doing that the whole way across. Nicole gave me a dinosaur coloring book that i am going to color and hang up the pictures on my wall!

On my door I have picture poster things that my friends have made for me with my name on them. As you can tell I love my name. I have it written all over. I really like the pink color on my wall. It is the only color that turned out exactly what I wanted it to be. On that wall I have a bookshelf that I keep all my text books, jewlery boxes, perfume, photo albums, old diarys, and other random crap. I painted the bookshelf yellow but I dont really like it painted anymore. When my friend Nicole came over and we painted our MOLE day shirts I painted my bookshelf glittery with the extra fabric paint.

The posters I have are Miley Cyrus/ Hannah Montana, High School Musical 3, and a dinosaur DS game advertisement. I know it all seems kiddish and lame but i really love them. I don't care. Everyone bashes Miley Cyrus but her songs mean so much to me. The pictures I have are me when I was a baby, and eight pictures of me nad my friends that are super important to me. I have a college of me and my friend Riley's best pictures. It was her going away prestent for me. I have an autographed picture of the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders because I used to want to be one. I gave up those dreams a while ago.

I have my computer on my pink wall too. My computer desk is really messy. My guitar is placed beween my desk and bookshelf. As you notice I don't close the case. It is easier if i just leave it open becasue I use it alot. :)


While commenting on my room I have noticed a lot of things about it. My name is in it more then i thought. I really am in love with High School Musical and Dinosaurs. I love colors. Even though my wall color didn't turn out the way I planned, it works for me in the end. I lvoe the randomness of it. My room defines me.

The Green Wall.

I painted this wall first all by myself. I got bored waiting for Nicole to come over and i got it done. I should have waited though becaues it didnt' turn out the best. I put the gold tinsel at the top because my paint lines were weird.

I really like my windows on this wall. The blinds don't match, but they never have so it doesn't matter. LOL. On either side of them I have flower leys (or however they're spelled). One I got from my old friend Larissas house. The other one I got from a graduation party I went to in 8th grade. I also have butterfly thing I got in a kit. I used yarn and a plastic needle to sew it. On the other side I have a cardboard heart shapped book that my friend Denise made for me for my birthday when I moved here. Inside are all my favoite things. I love it!

I have a High School Musical calendar that I got for Christmas. It is actually a 2010 one this time. I love it so much! I also have a picture of hello kitty in an airplane my friend Alicia colored for me. The two plaque things are things I got from a fair in 4-H in like 5th grade. 4-H is a small town thing. On the same wall I have a glass dinosaur with my name on it that my friend jenna gave me for Christmas last year:) This year she gave me a HUGE stuffed animal dinosaur that usually is on my bed.

The four pieces of paper above my HSM calendar say " I love you" "forever" "and ever" "and always". When I moved into my room my friend Riley made those signs for me. Above my first window are two frozen pizza things that we decorated the summer before I moved here. I kept them because I liked them. We lived together that summer. It was fun.

Above my other two windows I have random stuff. The sun and gecko plaster thigns I got in Arizona last summer. I brought them all the way through the mountains back home. (Cheezy I know) The yellow piece of paper was my birthday card. On it are dinosaurs and chickens. It was my 16th birthday. My mom and dad, Isabel, Daniel, Zero my dog, Emma my cat, and my late fish Princess all signed it. It was an awesome card!

The huge mirror is where I keep all my make up and hair stuff. I have had that mirror vanity thing since my old room. It is VERY unorganized but to me, unorgnaized is organized. Above my mirror are glass cats I got at a garage sale. I don't have any reason why, I just liked them. Next to my mirror is a glass chicken thing my friend Denise gave me once and a bag my grandma got me from China. I have had that bag for a longgg time!

My bed touches my green wall and my blue wall. I have four comforters, a blanket, four normal pillows, a body pillow, my baby blankets, and a huge dinosaur on my bed. I sleep with them all every night. I take two of the conforters off during the summer but other then that I stay cozy all year long. I rearrange my room all the time. I usually do when my life starts to suck, or I need a serious change in lifestyle. I like keeping my bed on my green wall. My green wall is basically my memory wall:)

My family!

No family is perfect, and I will not lie and say we are, but we've have all gone thorugh a lot of changes with moving and all. At times we are eachothers only friends. As were all getting older we are starting to get along more and more. They all mean something different to me, but they all mean something.

Dad. My dad and I go to the same school. I have always been a teachers kid, but until highschool I was never majorly affected. Luckily, he is a cool teacher. Sometimes it is hard living my highschool under my dads watch, but it has kept me from becoming a bad kid. We also play music together. I play the piano and guitar and so does he. We have diffrent styles when we play, but it is fun when we play together. Music is our thing at our house. On snow days like today we both want to play music so we have to take turns. But it is fun having someone in my family who likes something as much as I do.

Mom. My mom and I are pretty close. We don't talk about everything everything, but we talk about the important stuff. Some people think that is weird but I don't care. She likes going places and I usually tag along. We also watch the Secret Life of the American Teenager together. It is awkward at times, but whatever. We only fight about some things. She doesn't want me to get my drivers lisence, but I don't really think she has a say in it. She only drives with me sometimes. We also fight about little things. They usually aren't big fights. Which is good.

Isabel. When I was younger I was really mean to Isabel. I feel bad about it now, but back then I had a reason to be mean. She would make herself cry when she didn't get her way and make me and my brother get in trouble. But of course around my parents she was a perfect angel. I am jelous of Isabel now though. She is super smart. She doesn't care what anyone thinks about her, and what people do think of her is good. And she is very pretty. She is herself always. She knows exactly what she wants in life. I am practically the complete opposite. I care more about social life then school smarts. I want to go far away after highschool to meet diffrent types of people. We are getting closer as were getting older, but we still aren't close. It will happen sooner or later. I hope.

Daniel. Me and Daniel on the other hand are exactly alike. We get annoyed easily, and are annoying when we get mad about being annoyed. We defend those who are right. We also get really really angry and agressive when we play video games and loose. We are either best friends, or we hate eachother. He gets yelled at for things that aren't his fault alot. My parents will always say I should stop making him angry, and I agree that I start it alot, but I think they could lay off him a little too. It would be hard being after Isabel, but I think he does it well.

Overall, my family is always there for me. Even when they are annoying I love being at home. Unless i have to superly focus I like doing my homework downstairs and be social. My family and I have gone through alot together and there will be more to come:)

The Orange Wall.

This was the last wall me and Nicole painted. It was about six o'clock and we were really tired. Oddly, the wall we slacked the most on turned out the best. Again the color I wanted was more orange, but it works. I hung everything up myself, which is pretty obvious. Everything is cooked.

My closet door is shut so I can show off my High School Musical 1 poster. I wasn't majorly in love with it back when it first came out, but luckily I got the poster anyways! My closet is actually semi-clean on the inside. The bottom if full of shoes I haven't/ don't/ probally won't ever wear. I hate shoes. Also I have my chicken cloth poster on my closet door that I have had since my old room. That is my favorite part about moving. Getting new rooms.

The nine pictures I have near the top are my sports pictures that I had when I used to play sports. They go from the good ol' soccer days to cheezy middle school volleyball and track pictures. There are my two wrestling manager pictures too. And softball. Eww.

I'm kind of weird and really like my name so I take every oppertunity to write it and display it. There are three things on my wall that say it. I don't think my name is chinese really showed up on the picture I took of this, but my room is hard to take complete pictures of. Again I have two bulliten boards. The one in the middle is the one I used in my old room but it has pictures from my whole childhood on there too. I haven't touched it since I moved here. Underneath of it I used to have all my swimteam and track ribbons but they keep falling off. It was cool I had a rainbow of them.

I have my TV of course and all my movies and CD's on my DVD player. I love my little TV. I actually don't watch it that much. I only use it when I go to bed becuase I hate the two step walk from turning off the light to my bed. Crazy? I don't care. I don't know if this shows up on the picture either, but I have my mirror and fake plant on the floor of the orange wall. I used to use the plant as decoration. Now I use it because it makes my room feel more organic, and it collects spiders. I don't have a problem with the spiders in my room, but it is easier to sleep knowing the spiders aren't in your bed.

The other bulliten board I have is half white board, half cork board. The white board part has signatures from my friend Nicole Brittany Jenna and Taylor. I don't usually like having people at my house, but the ones I do I let sign. Oddly, my friend Alicia comes over more then any of them but she still has yet to sign the board. The cork part has my friends school dance, sport, dance, and school pictures on it. It is fun to see how they have all changed in the years. It's not just the people that look different, its the people total.

The random dinosaur, academic letter, hannah montana, heart mirror, and blue magnets are mostly there for filler. I do love them though. On the side of my closet I have all the pictures I have taken at the mall. They are all fading in the sunlight. My sister made me the crown sticking out of my buliten board. She thinks I act like the princess of my family. Maybe a little.....

The orange wall is the one I got done decorating first. I look at it the most. Though not perfect. It's perfect enough for me:)

The Blue Wall.

Every wall in my room is a diffrent color. They each mean something different to me. They are four of my very favorite colors and there is little space on them. They resemble me. My room explains who I am and it is basically my favorite place to be at my house. It's one of the only things thats all mine.

The blue wall. Nicole helped me paint this wall. She kind of failed and got dark blue paint on my super white cealling. I was hoping for a brighter blue, but the dark really goes well. Funny how that happens. This wall is almost complete. I have an open space for a small poster or a picture frame of soemthing. It will get filled in time.

There are really random things on it. I have a picture of Strawberry Shortcake that my friend Taylor colored for me. I also have this mushroom pretty thing I've had for a while, and these really pretty sea horses my dad gave to me when we moved to my old house. I like them alot. I have two posters. One of Spongebob and his friends( best show ever.. kindof) and a blink-182♥ poster. I LOVE THEM! The heart isn't really in the name but I love them so I put it there. It works:) I have a 2009 calendar of High School Musical. I love those movies so much. This will become more obvious as you see my other walls too.

I have a lot of pictures too. I have a picture of me and my cast when I was in the play Through the Looking Glass in 2006. I also have a bulliten board full of my good memories of my 10th grade year. They have a lot of my friends, some new friends not on there, and some old friends that I'm not friends with anymore. I change my bulliten board every summer. I older like 200+ pictures and put them in my album and replace it. It is fun! I also have another bulliten board that I havne't filled yet. Actually it's a really big picture frame. I put a picture of me and my friend Brittany in it, but that's all.

On my window I have a curtain that my mom used when she was my age. It doesn't go with my wall at all, but I don't care. My non matching room makes it all the more me! I love my room. It also gives me memories. Like the letters L O V and E that me and my three friends took when we rearranged a sign two 4th of Julys ago in Minnisota. There is a glow in the dark star my friend Ashley gave me for Christmas last year. It is fun haveing random walls. It gives more stories to tell.

Im thinking about going personal

This will either be a good thing or a bad thing. I don't think anyone actually reads my blog anyways, so why not. Besides, what I do is my buisness. Half the time people judge things that they do themselves. The world is full of hypocytes.

My life is chaning in so many ways. As said by my last post My life has changed. Last summer made me less self concious, unforunately it made me more selfish. I got sick of bowing down and pleasing my friends who are just gonna blow me off in the end and ditch me. Why do I always have to be the one giving in to do things to please others why I am not happy myself. So I am taking the easy way out and giving up on people who make me unhappy.

Having self confidence has brought me to a lot of new friends. I am not afraid to talk to people who used to intimadate me. My old friends who I have been friends with all along keep fading in and out of my life. They all mean a lot to me though. I just get sick real easy now when they treat me what I precieve as wrong.

While expressing personal thoughts I will talk about people and specific things that mean alot to me. I will use more real pictures and less google images. I will start putting real life videos. Hyperlinks and blockquotes don't do much for me.

This is my blog and now it's about to be all about me:)

Summer love stories- yeah right.

I used a last resort and googled blog ideas. Number 25 on the list was books I want to write. It was the only one that wasn't super lame.

I have always wanted to be an author but I never have the time. In the summer I will start, but they never get more then a sentance. My ideas usually start when I read books. I usually read summer love books. Hailey Abbott is my favorite author, but Sarah Dessen is good too.

Most of the stories are the same. It starts with a girl at the begining of summer and as the summer goes on there is friendship love, usually two guys- the hott player and the cute friend, and a self discovery of some sort. They all end with resolving the frienship drama, falls in love with the cute guy friend who is in love with her, and find some magical life lesson. In real life- that rarely happens.

In real life you start off the summer planning to hang out with your best friends all summer. As it goes through you don't actually hang out with them as much. It is full of failed plans. There are boys, but usually when the girl screws over the guy in some way she doesn't actually get him back. The cute guy friend finds himself falling in love with your best friend, and then you regret letting him go. There is drama galore. At the end of the summer the only thing you have learned is how to regret. There are rare self discoveries and happy endings.

Only two summers of my life have been anything but that. My summer in 2007 was really close to what I described, but it ended completely diffrent becuase I ended up in a new town alone, uncontrolably. Last summer, 2009 was diffrent because it was a self discovery. My 10th grade school year was the most drama filled year of my life, though I'm finding my 11th grade to be very close.

I hung out with my best friends like 3 times because they all hung out with their stupid boyfriends. Litterally I was ditched. On of my other best friends would have bonfires with all my friends except me because I didn't have a boyfriend. Of course that isn't the reason, as she tells me, but I know it is. Noone likes a 3rd, or in this case like 6th, wheel.

My self discovery was learning how to be less self conscious. My self esteem is still pretty low, I just stopped caring. I lost 12 pounds and learned how to be healthy. I learned that girls in love will always chose love over friends. And I learned that you should never actually count on someone for following through. I hung out with Taylor and Brittany two of my BEST friends all summer. They never cancelled plans. They didn't have boyfriends that they obviously cared about more then anyone else.

I know It sounds negative. But in the end, that was one of the best summers I have ever had. I met my cousins for the first time in 10 years, some of them for the first time ever. I went across the country in 110 degree weather and I loved it. I lost 12 pounds! I realized who my true friends were and are. I learned to not care what people think, becuase in the end, its me. I am the one keeping and losing friends. I am the one who sees myself as me more then anyone else. It doesn't matter anymore. I can honestly say I don't care.

There's something about ice cream

In AP Psychology, Mr. Corey will randomly ask people their favorite ice cream. He has yet to call on me, but when he does i am prepared with my answer. Without a doubt, hands down I love birthday cake ice cream. I love cake too. They are two of my upper favorite foods.

For my birthday I get to chose what we have for dinner. If I want to go out to eat or stay home and where and usually I can bring a friend. For the past two years I have gone to red robin. I love it so much. It is kind of embarassing becuase I know people who work there and they ahve to sing. But oh well. lol. Then this year I got one of my favorite cakes ever, red velvet cake! It was from Hyvee and it said "happy 16th Miranda " It was one of the most delicious cakes I have ever had.

I didn't get birthday cake ice cream, but I usually do. I love the blue swirls and the sprinkles. I always mix my cake with it which makes is super delicious. I don't eat much ice cream or cake in the winter because I dont excercise much and the extra fat makes me fat. And I don't eat much cake in the summer because the over makes the house hot, and birthday cake ice cream I only get once a year and that is on my birthday because no one else in my family likes it.

Now that I am talking about this I am seriously craving birthday cake ice cream and a nice plain cake with white frosting, and sprinkles. But it is winter, and I wont be doing any excercise for about 2-3 more months. In psych we are learning that hunger is a psychological thing. So I will eat some fruit snacks or something.
Who knows:)

Boy time is flying!

So I haven't been blogging much. But Winter is starting to take over my life. I have a weekly schedule and it leaves me VERY little time to blog. And not even just blog, I haven't checked my facebook and like written people back in like 2 weeks. The computer is so out of reach for me. The internet that I have for the first generation ( kind of ) computer in my room isn't working well lately. Its essay after report after homework-due-the-next-day priorties come first.

Usually I make Sunday my homework, catch up on Psych, blog day. But lately I have had speech on friday and saturday, or on saturday morning really early. That leaves Sunday to be my social day. I have a lot of friends and I have to try to keep a balance on which ones I hang out with. I hang out with my BFF (ik right) Alicia every day but other then that I don't hang out with my other bestfriends like jenna brittany taylor desiree lately as much as I used to. My bestfriend Nicole I find mysefl hanging out more then i used to, but still not alot. It is hard not being the social butterfly I usually am.

It isn't just AP lang that I have slacked in. At midterm I had a 4.2 and a complete A in all 7 seven classes except Chemistry and Spanish which were A-. Now most of my grades are A-. Compared to last year or even last term that still is really good. But compared to my A midterm I can tell that i am slacking. Spanish has risen back to an A, but AP psych and AP lang have both slipped to A-. It's sad. I hope i have enough time to focus and bring them back up!

But soon speech will be over and I can go back to my do homework then hang out on weekdays, hang out on weekends, and relax, study and do homework on Sundays. Oh the freedom that awaits me:)

Google...

So my mother got a new laptop for a late christmas present of soemthing and im typing on it. I am the first of my brother and sister and I who actually got permission to use it. It is kind of weird to type since im a bad typerish and the keys press down really easily. Its frusterating having to backspace so much. I have only been using this for like two minutes and I have already taught her how to make the brightness more or less. It's not that old people don't know how to use new technology, but its that they dont know how to figure out how to use it.

My mother also recently got a facebook. Probally at least 35 times my mom has called me downstais and asked me a question on how to do something on facebook, that I learned how to do myself. Instead of trying and guessing, she will just simply ask me, the genius, how to do it. It isn't really annoing, except that my dad did it too when he got facebook, just not as much.

I tend to fix a lot of things that break. No i never know what I am doing, but my confidence makes people think that I do. Our "high tech" TV has turning on and off issues. there is two remotes that I have to work with. My mom is the only one besides me who can fix it. It took me a little wihle to learn, but I TRIED and figured it out insead of googled the answers or called someone.

I guess looking up what your doing is probally a good thing. I just have never done that. For my like 10th birthday or something my uncle gave me a discovery kid telescope. I thought it was really cool, but the directions were stupidly written. So i used my context clues and put it together myself, and I did it right! ahh i love it when I do things right by instinct insead of GOOGLE.

I think my brother abuses google for video games. Video games are made for strategy and logic. but thanks to google, my brother has given up thinking and just usues google and youtube to learn how to play. All he does is sit in the basement, eat and play video games. He doesn't even think when he plays them anymore.

Not saying good and youtube dont help me. I use google about every time I get on the computer. I use google images and youtube for 99% of my pictures and videos. They are convinent, but I think they can be abused. Noone thinks for themselves anymoer. They just google or youtube it.
