Designer Sewing/Needle Arts
I'm taking a class called Designer Sewing and we just happen to do a lot of stuff that I actually like doing. The pictures are in order of what we've done first and what we've done recently, right now we're working on making a quilt which I haven't done anything on yet so I cant show you.
First we did knitting so I knitted a washcloth. I may not use it but it's good to know how to use it.
Second we did crocheting. I crochetd a head band, it was pretty easy I just crochetd three rows and I thought it was big enough.
Third we did counted cross stitch which was super easy I used a kit and it only took me like three class periods.
Fourth we did embroidery I made two of them, I made one for my sister and my brother in law that said "and they lived happily ever after" and it had two people a guy and a girl holding hands and then it had their names and the day they got married. and the second one is the one in the picture that says "Sisters are we... forever friends we'll be"

The Knowledge Bowl
So at my school near the end of the year we have the Knowledge Bowl, last year I didn't participate because I was only a squashmore and I didn't know that I could do it, but this year my friend Tyler asked me to be on his team. His team consists of our friends Devon and Braden. Our first competition was today and we won! It was 95 against 30. After it was over Devon was funny he said "I knew there was a reason to put you on the team" I'll let you know how far we get in the competition! The above pictures are the shirt we got for just being in the competition

16 and Pregnant
So I watch the show 16 and pregnant. Most of the girls and some of the boyfriends/fathers are so adamant about keeping the baby and raising it themselves. I think that they're being stupid, they aren't doing the right thing in my mind. The parents of the girls who are pregnant support them. In the episodes they don't even consider adoption at all and that's what saddens me the most. I wish the parents of the girls would at least consider it. These girls are only 16 years old they aren't even out of high school yet and they're moms? They need to consider it. I'm sorry I want to go to college and become an adoption case worker so that's why I'm so hard on these girls, they need to realize what the choices they make now will have consequences later. These girls don't understand that their kids have a higher chance of becoming teen parents because of this. They need to think about that.

Dinner
So most nights I make dinner for my dad and I and sometimes my little brother but when I get to I get to pick what we eat. So on Thursday I chose to make one of my favorite dishes called Cottage Potato Pie, and this time it turned out really really well I'm so proud of myself! So the pictures are the before and after.
