Porsche or Porch?

-
The other day my dad got one of those ad letters in the mail. It read,"You've won the grand prize! You can choose between a Porsche, or a Mustang!! Congratulations!!!" I thought he meant porch so I asked,"Why don't they just give you the whole house?" Then Monkey said,"Yeah. Wait, is it a front porch or a back porch?" My dad looked disgusted and he told us that a Porsche is a car, and that people don't usually give away porches. See I learn new and interesting things everyday. *sigh* At least it happened at home so nobody else had to suffer through that horrible ordeal.

    I like my porch lots more than I like Porsches. ;)

    But if somebody offered me a MUSTANG in exchange for my porch, I'd take it before they could change their mind! :)

    I want a red one!

SPRING BREAK!!!!

Words cannot express how much love I feel for Spring Break right now. This picture pretty much sums up how I felt when I got out of school last Friday! It has been a crazy busy semester, so this week without having to worry about assignments and projects has been absolutely fantastic! Unfortunately, it's now Thursday and it is almost time to dive back into reality! :( Alright so here are five things that I love at the moment: 1. Sherlock Holmes on BBC!! Even when I am super busy I make time to watch this show! :) It has hilarious dialogue, plus it doesn't hurt that Sherlock is super cute! And the best part of this show is that the next episode for season two is going to air on my birthday!!!! To say that I am excited is a complete understatement! 2. Popcorn! The popcorn my mom buys hardly has any calories, it is delicious, and pretty much my favorite food at the moment! 3. The Clockwork Prince! I bought this book the week after it came out, and I fell in love with it. I

New York Story: NYC's Version of The Little Mermaid

New York City in the summer is Satan's literal anus. It smells bad and it's hot as hell. In an effort to help people in the city cool down, the fire department opens up the fire hydrants. Many people use the open water as a splash pad or a car wash. I preferred to close the curtains and lay in front of a fan for hours at a time. But to each their own, right? I lived down the street from the 1 Train at 135th and used that train almost exclusively to get to Amelia and Dillon's house. The 1 train was more reliable than the life ruining M11 bus, even though I liked taking the bus to the West Side way more. Anyway, since I practically lived on their couch on the weekend, the trip from Hamilton Heights to the West Side was familiar.  On this particular occasion, I had dinner plans with Amelia and Dillon and I was already running behind. I decided to walk on the right side of the street so I could pick up dessert at the grocery store before getting on the train. For reference, I N

Thanksgiving Day One!!

Okay, so I have never blogged from my phone before, so this will be interesting! Winter I my favorite time of the year. I love the cold weather, the clothes, the Christmas romantic comedies, and especially the general attitude. I love having an attitude of gratitude. And it seems like during the holiday season other people adopt that point of view as well. One of the most rewarding feelings is when you bring a light into someone's life, and the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays gives opportunities to do that. For the next five days I will be posting the things I am thankful for!! 5) Over the summer, I decided that I wanted to do a big project for personal progress. I decided on making baby hats for premature babies. Unfortunately, however, I am not crafty, I don't know how to knit, and I fail miserably at every artsy endeavor I have tried. Despite all the things that could go wrong, I bought hat knitting looms. It took a couple of days for me to finally learn how to do
