Project Bedroom....


Hello boys and girls!

Welcome to the story of my long awaited bedroom remodel!

So, some years ago my dad started remodeling our house a little bit. Not anything major, just replacing the old blue carpet with laminate flooring and painting the walls, things like that. So, my room and my brothers room are the only ones in the house that haven't been redone......

.....Until now...:)

So, it started with packing. 

Now I, like most people probably do, thought "Packing? No big deal. I just need some boxes to put everything in and I'll be golden. Won't talk long at all." 

Yeah right, biggest understatement on the year! 

First off, I have a ton of stuff. It's hard to imagine how much stuff one could have in a room as small as mine. Not that my room is tiny or anything, but it's not big by any means. 

Second off: I, like other people in my family (Dad, Johnny.), have a slight case of OCD. I could not deal with putting my books, and movies into boxes unless I knew they weren't going to get messed up. And lets not even get started on how out of order my books were when my brother started just putting them into a box! He didn't even keep them in order! UGH!




(My room while packing)

All I can say is, I'm not looking forward to unpacking....:/


So this is where I'm sleeping now....


In my brothers room.....Help me!! :/

At lest I get to sleep in my bed.....

Right, moving on.....

I've had the color I wanted to paint my room picked out of awhile now, and I finally picked a color for the flooring....

They started painting my room, here's what it looks like now! :)

Look at my room! All pretty and painted!

(The color is called Ocean Whisper.)

And I'm just going to say this...(even though I know he doesn't read my blog but).....You were wrong Jerry!!! I love the color!!!

Sorry, my cousin said some things....Lets not get into that right now....lol

Next came the flooring, I picked a darker color than what my dad has in the rest of the house. It's call "Vera Mahogany"

So, here's my room after they put in the flooring.

 
 It's safe to say I'm in love....Just kidding....
....

 My dad still has to paint the closet door.

But, as soon as that's done, there isn't anything else to do! YAY!


........

......Can I get a big BOO!! for unpacking???

I'll let ya'll know how the unpacking goes!!

Until next time!

Blah! School!

I've been neglecting you little blog, and for that I am sorry. 

Will you forgive me??
Please?


For days I've been trying to come up with something to write about....But, I keep coming up blank.....

I guess I could tell you how school is going...Well, it's going.....And going....It seems like all I do anymore is school work.

It's my last year, so I've got a heavy load of work, and it's beginning to become stressful again......I know I'm not behind on my work, seeing as I started the end of last month. But, I feel like I should be halfway through the school year by now.

It feels like I'm never going to get done, like this year is going to last forever....And the thing is, this year is shorter, if anything.

In order to attend my Graduation, I have to be done by the beginning of May.......

I just need to remember to tell myself, that every day I do school, I'm a day closer to Graduation.......

.....I can't wait until I'm actually there........Finally.

Season's Come......And Season's Go.....

It's almost time to say goodbye to summer, yet again.

The once warm days are getting cool, acorns are falling from the trees, the leaves will be changing soon, if they aren't already.

Gone will be the days of wearing shorts and filp-flops, and bright colors.

Instead you will be wearing jeans and sweaters, and there will be Burnt Orange's, and Browns, and any other colors that you find in the fall. 

Even though I will miss the summer......I absolutely love Autumn.

I love watching the Leaves change, I love the cooler weather, I love Thanksgiving. 

I just love the Fall! :)

Happy Birthday.....

I know I'm a month late with this but.......

Happy Birthday little blog!! 






~Brittany

Senior Blues......

So my last year of school is starting soon......Yay, I guess.

I know I should be excited, and don't get me wrong, I am. But, I'm also scared, sad, and have no clue what I'm going to do after it's over......I go from being happy, to so stressed I want to pull out my hair, to wanting to cry.....All in about ten seconds. As I'm typing this I'm crying, can anyone say 'Emotional mess'?

I don't know if that's normal, heck I don't think I ever know what is normal.......It's not like I'm getting ship off to some school in a different state, I'll still be at home....I'll have to get a job, because as of right now I don't want to go to collage, and I don't feel like I'll ever want too. I'd rather work, and make money, than have to suffer through another four+ years of school.

I just want to cry, and I want someone to hold me and tell me it's Okay to be scared of graduating, and that it's okay to cry. To grieve something that's been part of my life for 12 years, (13 if you count kindergarten....)
 
But.....I feel like no one would understand what I'm going through.......
It's just hard to imagine something you've been working toward for years, something you've been wanting, is so close you can almost touch it.....And suddenly, you don't want it anymore. You want it to go away, just for a little while. So you can be a teenager without a care in the world for just awhile longer.....Before you have to become an adult. 

I don't want to be an adult yet. I want to be a sixteen year old......I just really want to be just a sixteen year old. Not a sixteen year old who's graduating next June. 
 
Just a Sixteen year old.

Get To Know Me: Day 30


Oh my gosh guys! I'm so sorry it's taken me this long to finish this, I've been super busy! OK, so here we go, day 30


List 10 things you would hope to be remembered for?
~~~~~
 I'm not even going to try to come up with 10 things, that would be way to hard. But, I'm going to say, I'd like people to remember me however they want. If we've had good times together, remember those, if we've had bad times, remember that. Just remember it all, the good, the bad, the happy, the sad, the beautiful, the ugly......Just remember it all, and know that whatever 'version' of me you remember, that's who I really am.


I'm the girl that will still laugh at something that's happened months, or years, ago.
I'm the girl who still wants her daddy whenever shes sick.
I'm the girl who still tears up whenever she thinks about when he brother moved out, even though it's been almost four years.
I'm the girl who's afraid of the dark. (Yes, at 16 I still sleep with a nightlight.)

So whatever memory's you have of me, I'm sure their wonderful.
~~~

And with that, the 30 day challenge is over!
Have a nice night people!

Hm.........

Which is true to a point.
