In This Moment

I am of course a fan. I love them both but I hope he is able to make it happen! I'm so predictable, it's almost obnoxious. :)

Swimming Pool

It's official! The Sullivan family has a functioning, salted (it's salt water, not chlorine), athletic swimming pool! It is really exciting to me! I feel like a real swimmer now. I'm actually not really that great of a swimmer but I set high goals for myself. Right now I'm thinking a gold medal. Here are a few photos from the first family swim.

Scooter loves the pool! He could stay in it all day!

Playing hoops! I can dunk it from the corner bench! It's straight baller.

They are still putting finishing touches on everything and they won't put the plastic floor on for a couple more weeks but it is a lot of fun. My favorite features aren't pictured but it has a waterfall and fluorescent changing lights. When it's dark outside it all provides a certain romantic ambiance (weird). HOORAY for the swimming pool!

Quotes

I love quotes of any kind. Spiritual, serious, funny, silly, happy, sad, inspirational, etc. I was looking through a book where I collect great quotes and found some old favorites. I decide to start sharing them here sometimes. We'll start with The Sperm quote. This is an all-time favorite and well... it's simply inspirational.

"Don't ever call yourself a loser. Consider the fact that you were once a sperm! You were once with a group of more than 5 million of you lined up at the starting line. At the end of a long, long tunnel there was one egg. There was a race, and you won! Don't ever call yourself a loser. The odds were 5 million to one against you, and you came through. You are a winner! You make the Olympics seem insignificant by comparison. You are here by divine appointment. You are here because God chose you to be a winner in the struggle for existence." Tony Campolo

Mermaid Hair

I have been growing my hair out for a couple of years now. After a while I decided I was going to grow my hair out until it was mermaid length. (If you don't know what mermaid length is just think about it for a minute.) So my hair has been driving me crazy for the past couple of months and all I have wanted to do is chop it off. However, I hadn't met my goal yet so I couldn't do it. The other day I was looking through some recent pictures and I found this one. I love this picture but focus on my hair for a second...

That's what I would call mermaid hair!!! I was really excited because this is proof I made it to mermaid hair length! So I scheduled an appointment that night with my fabulous hair dresser and sister-in-law Jackie and tonight I cut my hair off!
I'm not really sure how I feel about it yet. I can't stop touching it and I feel like a whole lot of something is missing. When I put my school bag over my shoulder I went to pull my hair out from under the strap, to find no hair caught there. I put on my seat belt and tried to move the hair from out of the belt and also... no hair. It has been an interesting phenomenon for me. I feel like it will be good Summer hair and it makes me feel sassier. Peace out mermaid hair!

MIKA

I have recently gained an appreciation/obsession with MIKA! I had never really known about him or the greatness that he is! For those of you who don't know, he is a pop musician. My play list is going to be only MIKA for a while! Enjoy!
Side Note: I also like him because he looks crazy/stoned/creepy/funny and more. He's got some serious hair and skinny jeans. He seems like someone I would like to be friends with.

This Is Gonna Be Great!

I have been criticized the past few months for a serious lack of current pictures of myself and anything going on. Well I have good news!!! This week I got a beautiful new camera from my parents for my birthday!
It is all stylish and red which is really exciting! It is also called finepix Z and what isn't cool about that?! I have high hopes that this will improve my blogging! Watch out for good stuff to come! Also, Survivor got over last night so you won't pathetically be posting about that anymore! :)
