Tennessee

Today is my birthday, and yesterday I spent my last full day as a teenager in Tennessee with two of my best friends and my Chaffee parents. It was a good day :) 

In my backyard

I hate it

I hate it when bad things happen. I hate it when bad things happen to good people. I hate it when bad things happen to the people that I love. I hate it when young people die. It reminds me I'm not as invincible as my young body sometimes thinks it is. I hate it when old people die. I just hate death in general. I hate it when animals are sick, mistreated, scared or unloved. I hate it when people act like animals don't deserve the same treatment and respect as a human being would. I hate it that some of my best friends live too far away from me. I hate it when people think that they're better than someone else.

I hate it when I have to pee and there's not a bathroom around. I hate being on my period. I hate it when the internet doesn't work. I hate it when I'm not able to read the books I want during school semesters because there's no time/energy. I hate not having money. I hate it when people don't change the toilet paper roll. I hate it when people don't keep napkins in their car (seriously, who doesn't have napkins in their car?!). I hate it when I go to Starbucks and there's already people sitting on the comfy couch. I hate that OPI and Essie nail polish are so expensive.

I hate when people post long rants on the internet. Who wants to read that? :p

April Showers

Ode to Nutella

It's official.
I am in love with Nutella.
I just thought you should know.

Bright Little Dandelion

Bright little Dandelion
Lights up the meads,
Swings on her slender foot,
Telleth her beads,
Lists to the robin's note
Poured from above;
Wise little Dandelion
Asks not for love.


Pale little Dandelion,
In her white shroud,
Heareth the angel-breeze
Call from the cloud;
Tiny plumes fluttering
Make no delay;
Little winged Dandelion
Soareth away.
-Helen Barron Bostwick 


This blog post would be way cooler if I had wrote that poem myself but I didn't. I did, however, take these pictures myself. 

There's a bumble bee on my left thumbnail! I learned it from this youtube tutorial!
