Why I started a Blog

I’ve been thinking about starting a blog for awhile, but I guess I’ve never knew what to put on it. “What are the kinds of things you put on a blog?” That’s the question I always asked myself, “What are people going to think?” “Will they like it?” But then I realized, I want to write a blog to share my thoughts and feelings with people going through the same thing as me.

I started this blog with the help of my sister Lauren, and my best friend Erin.

I’m the youngest of four, and I’m here to share my experience with you!!!

 

I’m Back!!

Hey everyone! Long time no see and this time it’s true. So the basics of this blog is going to shift a little. I will be going to college in the fall and I thought “hmm, what can I do to help me not go insane from stress?” And this came back into my mind (Plus I was talking with one of my friends about blogs).

So this is going to be more of something to help collect my thoughts and rant to. I will also be putting my thoughts and theories pertaining to different Fandoms in here. Feel free to ask questions about something you are confused about in any of my posts, and please, PLEASE, suggest your favorite Fandom.

That’s all for now,

See ya later

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!!!!! I hope you had a good time with family or whatever you do for holidays:) I had a great Thanksgiving, I got to spend it with my family and friends:) Yesterday we set up the Christmas tree and we had this tradition that the youngest gets to put up the tree topper. I thought it was fair ’cause I was always the youngest so I got to put in on, well my brother Caleb didn’t like it because he only got to do it for about two years and even then he couldn’t remember it, it was funny.

What’s new?

I’m now 16 which is awesome! I got to see my sister and brother again for Thanksgiving:) I haven’t seen my best friend since Oct. which I’m sad about:( I started a new school curriculum, it’s a little different than what I’m used to. I’m thinking of making a youtube channel, tell me what you think I should do it about in the comments. I’m taking a break from Pinterest for about a month, I’m addicted to it which is a problem when I’m supposed to be doing school:) we no longer have two dogs, we had to put one down:(

Sorry:(

Hey guys, sorry it’s been so long since I’ve written, I’ve been a little busy with school starting up and getting into a rhythm. I dropped my oldest brother Josh and and sister Lauren off at college, then went to D.C with my mom, I’ll talk about that in a different blog later today.

Not being Heard!

Do you ever feel like no one is listening to you, or they keep interrupting you? I used to be a quiet person, but now I’ve been told I am very loud, that is because when I was younger I had to yell to get my opinion out, or I would say things over and over again because they won’t acknowledge me so I don’t know if they heard me. Then I get told to “be quiet”and “they know”, how am I supposed to know that if you don’t acknowledge me!!!!! So that’s my reasons I’m loud and why I want to get my opinion out there!

Fair

So this week was fair, I had a fun time with friends and family:) I took Chickens, Cake Decorating, Quilting, and a Horseless Horse Project for 4-H. I also got to work at the Heritage Bakery, they sell the best cookies in the States! I can’t say the world ’cause I’ve never been out of the States. My favorite part was probably the barn dance they have every year:)

Braces

So sorry I haven’t written a blog in so long, not a lot of stuff has happened in my life that is “blog worthy” but then I remembered that this blog is about my thoughts on things.

So now I’ll start, I might be getting braces in late October/early November, so that’s fun mainly because I’ve always wanted braces, a lot of people tell me it’s not fun and you don’t get to eat a lot of yummy food, but I don’t really care about the food. I’ve just always thought it would be cool to have braces, and now I will:)

House Fire

So in the last blog I talked about my chickens and that my roosters caught my house on fire in 2015, today I'm going to tell you how, and what happened after it.

It was March 15th 2015, at 4:00 in the morning, my dad woke up to my sister's baby goat's cry in the garage, and he opened the door that connects my parents room to the garage and got a face full of smoke. He then started yelling through the house "FIRE, THERE'S A FIRE!" My mom woke up me and my sister Lauren and our friend who was sleeping in the living room, and then woke up my brother Josh and his friend and told them to go help my dad. Then we grabbed our shoes, a blanket, the pets, and our phones, by this time my sister had already gotten my other brother Caleb up and out of the house. I ran up to my room to see if I could grab anything, I didn't.

We went next door to the Outlet, it was at this time that I remembered my Grandma's photo album in my parents room, I wanted to go get it but my sister told me I couldn't because there was too much smoke, I started to cry and she told me that Grandma will always be with me in my heart, and I told her that she had memories of grandma, and that that album was all I had left of her. At this time we had all gotten inside the Outlet and was waiting to be able to go back into the house.

Most people who haven't had a tragedy happen to them don't understand how long it lasts. Some people think it takes maybe, MAYBE a year to get everything fixed and back to normal. We spent three weeks in a hotel and then had to spend about a year in another house waiting for our house, our HOME to be finished. Even though we moved in a year later our house was still not finished, and neither was the paperwork. Though the  fire didn't completely destroy our house like it does to some(I'm not saying I understand what the people who lost everything in a fire feel like) it's the smoke damage that did a lot for my family. We had to throw out anything that was plastic because they said it will forever smell strongly of smoke. We also had to document everything that we threw out for the insurance money, we didn't get that done till a couple months ago, of course that was partly our fault.

Chickens:(

Chickens are great to eat, they taste delicious and are a great project to do for 4-h, but boy are they annoying. I'm doing them for 4-h this year for a little extra cash. I haven't been able to get some farm boots, so I either wear my old flip flops ;P Or I wear my dads farm boots which are way too big, but either way the chickens end up pecking at my feet, and I've been told that they are just hungry, and I can understand that. I mean if I got fed the way they do(on a diet) I would be pretty hungry too.

Sometimes chickens can be so dumb but other times they can be really smart, but my chickens are mostly dumb. I was trying to get them to come out of their pen with food, and they just keep going from the entrance, giving up and back to try to go through the fence. One time I was doing my quilting project, and my dad went outside to check on the chickens(cause it was really hot that day) and they were all in the sun by the window from our craft room where I was.

Another reason I don't like chickens,(well Roosters mainly,) is because they caught our house on fire in 2015, but that's a story for another blog.

Please leave comments down below and tell me what you think:) Thank You!

Your friendly blogger, Rebekah.

TV Shows

When you watch a TV show a lot, do you ever want to start doing stuff like what’s in the show? Like say you are watching a cooking/baking show and by the end of it you want to start cooking/baking. Or you watch a garage sale/storage sale and then you start looking online or in the paper for garage sales and stuff people want to get rid of, and you try to see if you can fix it up and sell it for more than you bought it for.

Then there are the times you say to yourself “I’ll just watch one more episode and then go to bed.” Then you end up staying up till two in the morning watching it. You would be surprised at how many times I’ve done that.
