What did you do this weekend? Share pictures if you have them!

This weekend was pretty chill for me. On Friday my friends and I went to part of the football game to see us beat West! We then went over to one of our friends house's and hung out for a while. On Saturday I sat at my house all day and watched Shark Tank with my brother and his friend Kyle. Then that night I went to my soccer game to cheer on my team because I am still injured. Then on Sunday I went to the Royals game with my youth group to kickoff the term. The international president of BBYO was there, so that was pretty cool. The Royals lost though. I went over to my friend's house to borrow two of her dresses for our homecoming and Rockhurst homecoming! Then I went home and hung out with my hamster and did homework.

Below is one of my favorite quotes that I found on Pinterest. Think read and think about what this says and then blog about it. What does this quote mean to you? Elaborate! Feel free to give an example of tell a story.


I really like this quote and it is so true. People just say "I'm bored" to avoid having to do anything with their lives. If you are so bored, go out and see the world. Instead of sitting at home and watching TV, go downtown, go to a movie, do something you and your friends have never done before, or take you dog on a walk an admire the world around. Your life is not limited to what you are accustomed to doing. Try new things, go new places, and live an exciting life because in the end you are the only one who can make your life the best it can be. I like to live an amazing life by traveling and going to camp where I can meet new people and do things I can't do anywhere else in the world.

How do you express your creativity? Explain.

I express my creativity in many different ways! One way is that I really like to draw, paint and doodle. I paint and draw a lot when I'm at summer camp. I also like to express my creativity in my Jewish youth group. I like to help plan new and creative programs for conventions and just for the group. I like to think of new ways for us to enjoy our time together in ways we usually don't think of! For example, I am currently planning a program that is based on the movie Beauty and the Beast. This is a program we have never done before and I am really excited to share my ideas with my chapter.

What did you do this weekend? Share pictures if you have them!

On Friday, I went to the BV football game and watched us beat SMNW. It was a really fun game, and it was really cool to see some of my good friends on the field. The theme was USA and I got to wear my American flag leggings! On Saturday, I worked from 11-3 at Harley Davidson (I'm a cashier for the motorclothes department). Then I went to a program for my Jewish youth group BBYO. We had a bake off and a game night with the girls chapter, and then I went to a sleepover with the boys chapter. We made a Walmart/Mcdonald's run at midnight and bought matching cat shirts. When we got back to the house we told ghost stories until three in the morning. On Sunday, I had BBYO meeting from 3:30-7:00 and I did all my homework.

Friday, September 5


Kids these days have way too much access to information about everyone and everything in the world. They are all caught up in other people's business and never worry about their own life. All the kids look at their phones and wait for the score of the game or wait for the next picture of Kim K and her baby. When I was a kid, I had to wait for the daily paper to learn any information about the world around me. They all have their noses stuck in their little hand held computers, and I'm tired of it. Kids need to learn to go outside and play backyard baseball or ride a bike.

Tell me about what you have learned in this class so far. Have you learned a lot? Do you want to learn more? What do you want to be able to do by the end of the semester?

So far I have learned how to write pretty simple HTML code. I have learned to make a link, add a picture, make ordered and unordered lists, change font color, size and family, and how to make different sized headers. I feel as though I have learned a lot and it is already possible to make a simple website. I would love to learn more though. I want to learn how make websites look pretty and have all of the things that are possible through CSS code. I know we are learning CSS next and I am really excited for that!

Tell me all about your Labor Day weekend. What did you do? Include photos

Over the Labor Day weekend, I went to Copper Mountain Colorado with my family and one of my best friends from camp. We have two condos in Copper and there was a music festival there that weekend. We rode the chair lift up the mountain, hiked to the top, road Go Karts, played in giant hamster balls, rock climbed and saw some family friends from Breck. We also had family game night and family movie night. It was really great to get some quality family time and to see a friend I usually only see once a year.
