Hello again. I have one thing that has been on my mind lately... and that is rain. This weekend was the Relay For Life. Many people came to spend the day trying to raise money for cancer research, and awareness for the terrible disease. There were also a large amount of people who decided to spend the night at one of the local elementary schools, where the event took place. We all knew that rain would be in our future, but no one expected it to be as dramatic as it actually was. I imagined a few light drizzles here and there. But instead, we were hit with massive drops that soaked everyone completely from head to toe. I overheard two friends talking one of them explained that once this rain started it would not stop for the entire week. I thought that this was a bit over dramatic.
Boy, was I wrong. It has been raining and pouring for days. This YouTube link explains my emotions clearly through song.
Honestly, Rain, please just leave us all alone. We don't want you here. I will admit it has helped my allergies. I have not had to take my usual allergy meds for a few days. So I will say a quick thank you to the miserable rain for clearing away all of the pollen.
As you can probably tell, I like to use different colors in my posts.
Anyways, I hope everyone finds something to smile about even though the weather isn't so great.

Shoes
This year I realized my immense love for shoes. Converse, specifically. I really enjoy adding color into my life, I find that a little extra brightness really can change my mood very quickly. My small collection of Converse sneakers is nowhere near complete at all. I have had my eye on neon ones for quite some time.
A few days, when I walked through the door after school, my mom exclaimed, "I have a present for you!" Typically when she says this it is usually gluten free cookies, she is gluten free, or something small to hang on my keys. This day, was different. When I opened the bag of goodies, there was no food in it, no little trinkets, but a pair of neon pink converse. My eyes almost popped out of my head.
This picture doesn't really show how neon my new shoes actually are. I almost need sunglasses just to look at them. They make me really happy. In my collection of Converse I have red and brown shoes. I love each of them for their own reasons. But my love for my new neon pink ones is pretty obvious. So if you see me walking down the hallway or out around town, be sure to put on a pair of sunglasses if you want to look at my bright new kicks.
The weather lately has been pretty crummy, it has been very dull and boring out. I hope that my bright shoes will add a little sunshine into your life. I know they help me smile during this gloomy week.
Keep smiling, we're (the seniors) just about done!!!
