Day 12

haha found this ancient guy while unpacking some boxes that we should have unpacked years ago. but i guess that's the beauty of moving around a lot-accumulating a bunch of crap and then discovering it years later. the wire on this webcam was so thick...i don't even remember using this thing! hahah ohh how technology has changed...
on a side note: i bought my sister's camera today eeee!

Day 11

Look at what fell from the sky!!! lol jk I wish. I earned this through sweat and pain! literally -_- finally earning some real money...to spend of my sister's camera... =P

Day 10

Had a lovely breakfast and bonding time through puzzle-making with a good fren! :) disney puzzles ftw! we have yet to finish it lol

Day 9

Buying raspberries is a rare occasion for my family (since they are not usually cheap and they become moldy easily -_-), so it was pretty exciting being able to eat some today!! omnomnom

And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair."

Day 8

Last day of VBS!! Excited yet bummed because yesterday was the day I actually bonded with my kids and the day I finally figured out a way to wear my funny headbands without itfalling!

Day 7

 

Made duh puppy chow (no, not the actual one, the muddy buddies!) yesterday for someone cool and saved the other batch for mehh. soooo addicting! haven't made these goodies in a looong while :D (okie they look clumpy here but thats cause my sister didn't mix them with powdered sugar -_-)

Day 6

Mah dog cheeling like a villain and my foot!!! she looks like a puppyyy :3

Day 5

Popcorn cupcakes for snnaaacckkk!!

Day 4

Wow....what  a day! I've been gone this whole Father's Day, working in the morning and afternoon and then helping out at VBS for the remainder of the evening, but it has all been worth it. Though, I do need to find better shoes for walking around long periods of time...-__- my feet haven't killed me like this in forever...aiya. This picture marks the first night of VBS! I think the print will start peeling off very soon but oh well :P I can't say it was the best first day of VBS ever, since I'm very accustomed to the CEF summer camp style (for you CYIA, ya know what i mean ahha ;D). I had so many tendencies...of screaming, get in a straight line or...the need to just be a total sergeant. Anyhow, I hope the rest of the week progresses positively.

side note: I actually took this picture on Sunday but didn't upload it till today!

Day 3

Alrighty....the real day 3!! I know this is a "one-a-day" kinda challenge but I don't think putting up 2 pics would hurt, eh? While cleaning out my room, I found this packet I was supposed to follow along or at least look through in preparation of the purity ceremony that was held 4 years(?) ago...but thing is...I never looked through it -guilty- lol. I mean, it's super thick!!! (bad excuse, but hey) Anyway, I thought it'd be nice to use it as a daily devotional and see how that goes. I took a pic of my purity ring inside my Bible-I don't wear it very often because the stone seems to become faded easily :P and plus it's kinda too big for my finger.
Today, I FINALLY sent out the in-state petition for college...took so long and lots of nagging to my rents to place all these documents together! I think we have done the best we can...and so now we can only pray that they will approve it of!!>_< Kinda seems like a small thing, but this is a big step for my parents and I!! Careless ole me even got water on it (aiyaa!)

Day 2

Ahhhh!! okie okie, so this day 2 actually counts for June 14th, not June 15th ><! I always tell myself that I will upload something...and then it turns out too late T__T. Anyhow, this was also day 2 of cleaning my room-I did not take a picture of my room but it is significantly cleaner yee! I love listening to music, so cleaning and listening to 97.5 fm is a must! I happen to find new songs that I like as well =) But I took a picture of this radio because we found it while cleaning out other boxes and though it is super ancient (we've had it for about...10 years? lol ya see dat antennae?? I even had to duct tape it to the handle so it wouldn't sound fuzzy hahaa), it is actually easier to switch from station to station than our other Sony one. It is surely a tank but for some reason, I really like how we've kept it for so long yet it's still useable =); it kinda tells a story hehe

On a side note, I was super temped to go and edit this picture and make it look "artsy" but decided not to, and I think I won't for all the other pictures; I'll keep these pictures nice and clean :)

One picture a day....let's see where this takes me!

Okay....so, I've been meaning to keep up with the one-a-day-picture challenge but last time I attempted, I stopped being consistent after 2 days hahah (fail). I think that having to post it on this blog will be able to give me some motivation :)

Day 1: Here is a picture of my room, as messy as ever! Sadly enough, I still have not been able to dispose of all the junk that has accumulated over the years. I really want to clean my room though, so that my bed can finally be set up and so that I can maybe place a dresser in my room! I know it sounds so simple, cleaning a room, but I believe that the start of discipline and organization comes from something as basic as maintaining your own room in a clean and organized manner! I probably won;t take pics of my cleaning progress every day but I will definitely take before and after pics.

Special thanks to my fren Kevahn for suggesting to start this challenge =D
