Green Month Thing!

I was thinking about something to do for this months green theme, So I though and though until I though about something that was green.
A green i-pod! I just love this color green. (but I think my pink i-pod is better hehe)

The Twilight Series

I would have to say twilight would have to be my favorite book ever.(and I usually don't read much too, lol) I really like books that have a lot of action and thrillers in them, but I would have to say this book is a bit scary to. They have a series of books, I fist one is twilight which is my favoriite one of them all, the second one is New Moon, (which I am just reading right now.)
and the third one is eclipse. One of my friend was just finishing that book and she said it was a really good book.
I just recently just found out that they are making a movie based on the book, so I'm really excited about the movie.

Addicted to CSI: Miami

I think this show is pretty addicting once you start watching it. I watch it about 3 to 4 times a week. It's a pretty neat show I think, to watch people solve cases and search for things. I'm really interested in it. I don't watch much of the other CSI shows, usually only the Miami one. I don't know why, but I think this one better than the Las Vegas or New York shows. Normally when I'm just sitting on the couch looking for something to watch, I'll look for any CSI shows.

Anyone else addicted to CSI? Which one is your fav?

Hockey's almost over...=(

This year hockey has been awesome . I've been really busy with hockey practices, games, and tournaments. It's just been so crazy! I usually play at least three to four practices a weekend, if not hockey games or tournaments.

So far this year I've scored 13 goals and have been awarded three or four MVP's ( meaning player of the game.)

I'm sad that hockey's ending, but now when hockeys done I have soccer to play. I played soccer last year and I didn't mind playing, so I though I'd try it out this year too. So I'll be busy with soccer now too.

For hockey I have two more practices and one more tournament to go until hockey ends =(. Although I'm really excited for the tournament. I like tournaments because you get to stay in the same hotel as all of your friends. But then you also usually have to get up early in the morning for games, (sometimes we play at 6am!!) but I don't mind getting up for hockey as much as I mind getting up for school. (haha)

What A BLAST!!!

Two whole weeks staying in a nice hotel, eating when ever you want, sun tanning on the beach 24/7 and eating FREE ice cream when ever you feel like it! It was paradise! Our Christmas vacation to Cozumel was just so much fun.

The first couple of days after we got there was Christmas Eve and then Christmas Day, so we just laid on the beach. It was funny because Santa came to the hotel on a parasail!! LOL It was so funny I just had to take pictures of him!There were the most beautiful views there too!!

The most beautiful sunsets, the sun went down so fast that you could actually watch it move down, it was amazing!
This is a picture from our hotel room, the water was just a prettiest blue too. It was nice to swim in because it was easy to see what was underneath the water.

When we were there we got to see a bunch of different animals, such as lizards and crocodiles!
Talk about scary, you sure wouldn't want this thing in your house! Look how long his claws are!!

We saw the crocodiles at a park - Miguel (Mike) who drove us around that day used to work at the park so he whistled and they came right over!! We couldn't believe it. They were right under the dock where we were standing!

One Sleepy Dog

I just am so amazied how much Mattie sleeps a day, I don't think I could sleep for as long as he does. One night I was sitting on my computer and Mattie walks in and puts one paw on my bed and looks at me, as if he wants to know if he's allowed on my bed. It's so funny. Then a couple of minutes later I look at him and he has his head on my pillow snoring and grouling on my PILLOW!! Also I have a bunch of dirt on my bed from his dirty feet.


Haha Once I was going to bed he was still in my bed, it was hard for me to sleep with him. LOL
haha look at him sleeping away, not even caring that I'm taking a picture of him.

Whoo Christmas Vacation!!

This year for Christmas I wanted to go somewhere nice, hot, and sunny! I looked up a couple of places in Mexico but it either didn't have one thing or another. But after a bit of looking I found this one place in Cozumel, it's called El Cozumeleno beach Resort****. I'll have to be on a plane for about 6- 7 hours I think, and also the airport in 5 minutes from the resort. So I don't have to wake up early coming home. It has a couple of pool's, a swim up bar, golf course right behind the hotel, and lot's of other stuff like that.( but I'm just to lazy to type them all out hehe.)
Here are some pictures of the hotel.This is a picture behind of the hotel. You can see the golf course.. It's all just so beautiful.

The view from the room is so amazing too, you can see so far too. In the morning I can't wait till I get to wake up and sit out and watch the boats go past, Oh I just can't wait!!
The hotel is perfect, one day I'll have to go golfing and the golf course, and I'll probably start out on the mini golfing first though hehe. Oh it's going to be so fun well everyone else is playing in the snow, going snowboarding or skiing, and sledding I'll be getting a nice tan. I bet I'll come home with a nice golden brown tan.

My Halloween costume!

This year I decided to buy a costume off the internet. I found a couple of nice costumes but the shirt or dress what a little bit to short.. But some of them were really cute like this raspberry girl. I found this one in the teen size to.. I don't know any mom's that would let there kids go out for Halloween with a skirt that short..I though it was really cute...I just love the color. But a bit short for me. lol
I also was looking at for a rag doll costume too and this, well I though was nice I like the colors again ... but this one I think is just a bit shorter then the raspberry girl costume..

But I had to decided on a costume so I though this rag doll costume was pretty cute. Not to short, and also not to long too.. I ordered it and I think it was about a couple days later we got our costumes, I though it was pretty fast. When I got home and tried it on it looked really cute.

The little BIG Mattie!

Today when I was playing with Mattie ( my dog) I noticed how big he had grown. I have a tug rope that he like and i play with him with that. Mattie pretty strong and really big. Great Danes get pretty big also. But for his size he is a loving dog, who just loves people. I have a friend who brought there dog over here and Mattie and the other dog played and played until they were both tired, but I took along time for both of them to get tired. It's pretty funny watching them play because Mattie is so big and the other dogs is fairly small. Mattie try's not to step on the dog and he jumps we'll he does that.. Oh it is just so funny.

I found some pictures of when we got him and when he was growing.........

Once Mattie got home he had tape to hold up his ears, because we had them cropped. Oh he looked so cute..... This picture was taken just a few days after we got him..He is so small... when my mum brought him home she said that Mattie could fit on her lap... Now i don't think he could do that.. He would probably squish my mum.... haha

This picture was taken a few months after we got him. Mattie liked to lay on that mat for only a couple of weeks when he found a better place to lay.... In this picture I like how this paws are crossed there so cute!!!

This is a picture taken a month ago or so. When it was really hot and he just had to come outside and lay on the cool grass.This pictures is a bit older then the one before.

I took this picture just a bit ago. You see him staring at the couch behind me, well to make him stand like that i had to take one of his toys and put it behind my back to make him look my way. It worked, but i did say I would have to give him a treat after that so he got something out of it.

My Brithday Present!

On July 15th I got the best birthday present I have ever got from my dad. I got a PINK ipod nano!!!
It took me about 2-3 hours to get music on there. But once I had got music on it was so cool. Did you know that you can put pictures of there and you can also have a slid show of your pictures. I though that was pretty cool, until I was looking for the games on there. I I saw a bunch of games like solitaire and parachute. YOU can play solitaire on there. Now that was just the best!!
Not many people I know have ipod. I think it cost about 225 for mine. But some of the money was the money that my dad owed me. But I was asking and asking for an ipod for my birthday and I got it! Hopefully I don't lose it. haha That would be really bad.

A good band

One band that i thought was good was 'Cute is What I Aim for' they sing Curse of Curves. I think that song is a really good song. Well that's just my opining anyways. I guess they are a new band because I haven't heard them at all. I think they write another song to but this is the only one i know so far.

The book I'm reading today.

The book I am reading today is The tale of despereaux. I started this book on May 27, 2007 and so far I have read around 100 pages. And to think I am a slow reader too , so I really am into this book. The book is about a mouse named despereaux and he falls in love with the beautiful princess pea who lives in the house. When the mouse council catches despereaux talking to the humans he is sent to the dungeon. And That's all I read so far.

Favourite T.V. show

I think out of the 'family kids channel' life with Derek would be my favourite T.V. show. I don't know why I just like teenager T.V. show like that one. In the picture below you see first is Derek, George, Nora, And Casey. Life with Derek is on at 8:00 to 8:30. I think that's a good time because that's the time I am ready to watch T.V. But sometimes I miss it because I'm not ready. But tonight I am going to watch it.

New nailpolish colours

Today I found the best nail polish colour! It's like a shiny pink colour. I love it because I love the colour pink as a nail polish colour . that colour looks so good with a pink shirt and flip flops , well that's what I think would go good together.

My dream room

Have you even imagined painting your room a really bright colour and decorating it how you like it? Well I have thought about it, I want to paint my room a darker blue to match all my blankets and posters in my room. It would look nice but I don't want to do the work, so I think I am going to keep it how it is. On the news the other day I heard the the new look for your bedroom is lime green and white. I like lime green, but not with white, maybe pink but never white. Well that's my opinion anyways.

Just can't live without these things

You know when your board what do you usually do? I usually go on my computer, watch T.V. or talk on the phone. Sometimes I can stay on my computer for hours and hours and same with watching T.V. and on the phone. I wonder what would happen to the world if there was no T.V. or computers or phones I don't know what we would do.
