such is life

Meet Me


Me is a HUGE believer in having a different hair style almost every day.

This makes for a lot of variety in her mundane life.

In fact, Me has been approached by a number of people commenting on how they admire her hairstyles because they are so different every day.

So Me would like to say:

Get out there and have fun with your hair!

Put it in a bun, a ponytail, have pigtails, curl it, crimp it, toss it up, pin it, braid it, dye it, WHATEVER!!

HECK even SHAVE it! No worries, it will grow back!

Me used to just put her hair in a ponytail everyday...then she discovered the flat iron...and she never looked back.

Me is also not the type to write inspirational blog posts, so moving on:

Meet Kobe

Me loves this little thing with all her heart. Sure, he can be really bad sometimes, but he's just so snugly that Me must forgive him of all his wrongdoings.

Meet Breanne's note.

Me usually puts Kobe in Breanne's room when Me has to go to school. But this time Breanne wasn't home, so as you can see, Kobe would have been sad with a broken heart if Me had put him in there.

We are the coolest roommates ever!

Meet Nova

Nova was a beautiful, red beta fish. Me is very sad she didn't get any pictures of him before he died and swam to fish heaven. But luckily for us and for the sake of this story, Burns drew Nova before he swam away.

He liked building bubbles and he had a hard time eating his food. He always attacked the pellets like they were alive, so some ended up on the side of the fish bowl. Then he would proceed to jump for them. Me watched him jump for one once. He got it! She couldn't believe her eyes!

Meet Icarus

Once upon a time, Burns really wanted a book called Icarus at the Edge of Time. So Me tried to get him this book, but she couldn't find it anywhere (she ended up ordering it for him..isn't Me a good girlfriend?)

So Me went out and bought a beta fish, named him Icarus, and put a bunch of watches all around his fish bowl. Then Burns came over for dinner, and Me surprised him with Icarus at the edge of time!

Icarus wants to attack everything he sees...including his own reflection.

Meet Burns

He likes Me, and Me likes him.

Me thinks she has the most wonderful boys in her life! (see above picture)

Now meet winter

If you look carefully, you can see that someone wrote on the car at the front: move this.

Me hates winter.

It's cold, it's dark, it's cold, it's cold, and it's cold...and dark.

Oh and she has to wait for the bus twice a day 5 days a week. When it's on time, she's not, and when it's not on time, Me has to wait at least 15 mins for it. So sometimes Me thinks she is on time, but she just missed it, so she thinks okay well I will just have to wait 15 mins and it will come cause it's always 15 mins late in the winter. Then she ends up waiting 30 mins outside in the freezing cold weather because it was actually on time and the next bus comes in half an hour. JUST GREAT!

Then she wonders why anyone would want to live here.

Then she looks on the bright side. There are no crazy poisonous bugs/animals living up here, we don't live on a fault line, we don't live by the ocean, prone to tsunamis and tropical storms, and we get to go skating at Bowness Park and toboggan! YAY.

And then she thinks of how cold she is right now...and how dark it is outside.

Meet Window.

Me gets to look out of Window every day and this is what she sees in the winter.

At least Me has a lot to be grateful for.

(See previous posts of 5 things of thanks).
