Day 10: A Favorite Word

I love these quotes and I realized that I love things that sparkle and shine, which can include people! Everyone is different and I love those people who are just so full of life and share their light and happiness with others. They definitely sparkle! Maybe it's the inner princess in me, but I think I just like sparkly things :)

A Smell You Adore

Day 8: Anything vanilla

Someone That Inspires You

 Day 7:

I've had so many wonderful teachers in my life that helped me enjoy school and learning. They did so many fun things in their classroom and you could tell that they really loved their job. Because of them, I have always wanted to be a teacher and I'm on my way to doing just that. I really want to make a difference in the lives of the kids I teach, just like my teachers made a difference in mine.

YOU

Today is a beautiful sunny day and I love it :) I did my fair share of piano playing today at church and I suppose it's good that I'm using my talents. Here's day 6. I saw a picture once that all these different faces on it and that's the first thing I thought of when I saw the theme for today. Sometimes it's hard to imagine the faces I would make if I was feeling a certain emotion.

Miss Blackner

Yup, that was my name yesterday. I worked at the Jr. High today and it was a lot different than I was expecting. My assignment was special ed so I was assuming that I would be working with students who had disabilities but I was actually with the students that just need some extra help with their work. Besides the comments like, "You look like a student" and Jordan's friends saying, "Dang, your sister is cute!" and being younger than all the teachers and not having anything to do at times, it was a great day! Although I'm an elementary ed major, I realized how much I love being in that atmosphere in general and how it was even fun to teach that age. It just helped confirm that teaching is definitely what I want to do :) And it also made me miss my younger school years. Those were the good days! I look forward to the rest of the school year and hopefully get some experience at the elementary schools as well.

I spent the rest of my day reading Mockingjay, going to my brother's last soccer game, eating Panda Express with my parents, and then finishing the night with Greta!

We sat on the couch by the fire (yes, we had a fire in May. Crazy, I know!) and watched a movie. What can get better than a romantic comedy with your best friend being curled up with a blanket :) That sounds like FUN to me! Day 4...

Day 3

a big mistake: not bringing my rain boots home :( it's been raining more than ever and my outfit would've been complete today if I had my rain boots and could've jumped in the puddles! It has been pouring ALL day!

I started working today. I'm taking orders for Philly This. The best philly sandwiches you've ever had in your entire life. Even though it was pouring, we still had tons of people come to the Farmer's Market and I definitely look forward to the rest of the summer and the even bigger crowds on the sunny days!

Now I'm all bundled up in my bed and I'm going to read my book :) 

Day 2

Today I was lucky enough to go up and visit my dear friend Susannah in Seattle! She goes to Seattle Pacific University, a small, private, Christian school. It was so good to see her and see her home away from home!

I love the city and it's always so fun to drive past downtown Seattle. And it makes for a perfect SKYLINE picture! So here's Day 2:

I Heart Pictures!

Kenz and I decided to do Photo A Day May!  I'm super excited about it because it's gonna be SO fun! Hopefully I'll get better at taking pictures and learn some editing tips from my sister who is amazing at photography!

Happy May Day!
