Cupcakes

Today my mom and I made Oreo cupcakes.
It was fun.

The frosting is made from Heavy wipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla and crushed oreos. Yum.
And the cupcakes were homemade.






























Happy cupcakes,
Bethany :)

Salvete

Hey guys,

Nice to talk to you again. I'm sorry I haven't posted in a long time. I've been lazy lately-more than usual, that is.
I also haven't really had anything to post about...

It's been rainy and humid lately. It's started to feel like Summer...finally. I can't wait for summer. I'm really close to being done with school.

That's all for now,

Bethany.

P.s. I'll post some photos soon.

I kinda just said what ever

As I wrote that title, I thought, "where's my cinnamon roll?"
Today is a bad day. I ate bad food. Cici's pizza buffet. I'll probably end up with a disease. Sorry Cici, it's not you, it's me. :) Plus, cici's pizza is carb city, so we know that that is not sticking to my diet. I had cici's for lunch so if I had stuck to my diet, I would have eaten a natural peanut butter sandwich on wheat bread. Yum...(no sarcasm intended...okay, that was sarcasm).

Now, I want my cinnamon roll that my mom got for me from a bakery we went to this morning. But I can't get it because my mom is vacuuming the hallway. And when I say "vacuuming," I mean, deep cleaning with the steam cleaner, so I can't get to the kitchen. But really, I don't even know where the cinnamon roll is...last time I checked, it was in the back of the van.

I haven't taken any photos in a day or two. Right now my camera battery is charging. Maybe I'll take a photo of my cinnamon roll when I escape my room through the window.

This is going to sound maybe selfish or like I'm having a pity party, but does any one read my blog? I mean, I know my mom does. :) I'm sure some one does (other than my mom). Some one has left a comment before, saying that I still have readers, but they get quiet sometimes...hmm. If no one leaves a comment on this post, I'll just assume you're still being quiet. :) I love ya, you know.

Now for a photo of the cinnamon roll

By the times you read this, it will no longer exist. Actually, as I write this, it does not exist. Well, not any more.
"Was it good," you ask. Do I wish I could move objects with my mind? Yes. So Yes, the cinnamon roll was good.
Do I feel guilty? Maybe...a little. Stop asking so many questions. Man.

By the way, I didn't end up escaping through my window. :)

See ya later,
Bethany. :)

P.s. I promise a better post tomorrow or Monday. :)

When I take a photo

When I take a photo, I think natural light. Because, it’s beautiful.
Why? Think about it.
It makes it look better. If you take a photo at night and inside, it won’t look that good.

Rule of life #4. Natural light is always the best



---------------
When I take a photo, I think a little mystery. With the beautiful natural light, then a little darkness and not showing all of what's going on in the photo. I'm not an expert, but you know it looks cool. :)
It makes your viewer wonder what it is.

Rule of life #5. Mystery is awesome


---------------
When I take a photo, I think life.
Like a person. Maybe a tree. Maybe animals...like birds...or my puppy dog.

Rule of life #6. Life will make people smile. It will make you smile.


Rule of life #7. Riley is cute (yes, that is a rule:)

---------------

After I take a photo, I think Cross Process.
They way I edit it. I try it, and some times it looks good, some times it doesn't.

Rule of life #8. When you edit a photo, always try cross process. (photobucket is a great place to edit. So is picnik).
In photobucket, go to edit, then to retro, then one of the options should be cross process.

Before cross process

After cross process
That one was pretty good.

See ya later,
Bethany :)

A beautiful day

It was a beautiful today. It was warm and windy. The sun didn't show that much, but it was still nice.Today I ate healthy and ran. Yesterday I didn't run, but I did eat healthy.

My window was open all day. My room smells like the outdoors.

Part of my breakfast this morning was an apple.

Yum, yum.


Rule of life #1. An apple a day keeps the doctor away
Rule of life #2. Don't watch a scary movie right before you go to bed
Rule of life #3. If you have a camera, take a photo

Oh life

It's amazing where time goes. It's March 2012. I'm 14. It seems that just the other day, it was my 12th birthday and I had the stomach flu.
So much has happened. So much has changed. People have changed and grown up. We've become mature.
I can't believe that in one year I'll be able to get my permit.

Yesterday I ran. Today I ran. I've eaten healthy all day. :)
Life is busy, tiring, stressful.
I can't wait till Summer. I really can't. I wish it would just come.





Have a nice...night,
Bethany :)

Scavenger Hunt Sunday

So last time I did SHS, I needed to memorize new vocab for Latin. I need to do that today, as well. And all my other homework I didn't do during the week. :( And since Latin has been moved to Mondays...I seriously need to get it done. But I just had to do SHS today. :)
1. Routine
Riley, my baby doggy. My sweet annoying dog. Who is in the kitchen whining right now. Please be quiet.
 I don't really have an exact same routine for each of my days, but the one thing I do EVERY single day, is get Riley out of his crate, let him outside (while I watch him, because he has a bad habit of jumping over the fence and running away), then he comes inside and I feed him. Fun, fun. But I love him. I know, this shot makes him look hilarious. :)

2. Music
The piano. The easiest one. I wasn't very creative on music. :)

3. Technology
My ear buds. I remember the ones that went over my head and if I wore them too long, they would start hurting really bad. These (above) are such a step-up and so comfortable. :)

4. Show me your style
Uuuuuhh...I like lip gloss. And Canon. And big makeup brushes...:)

5. Mismatch
This one isn't that great. I like Ashley's better. :)




See ya later,
Bethany :)

P.s. I'm planning on running today. Wish me luck. :)

Saturday, March 3, 2012

It went well today.

So today I woke up late, but it's Saturday, so I don't feel too bad about it. :)I ran/walked 2.589 miles. Good? I think so. I burned about 300 calories.
I haven't had anything bad to eat at all. Completely healthy and no sweets. I can't believe I haven't had any pop.
On Thursday, I got a new wire on my top braces (I don't have my bottom braces, yet) and it's supposed to make my front teeth come away from my bottom teeth, so when I get the bottom braces on, my top teeth won't hit my bottom braces. Right now there is a pretty big gap between my top teeth and my bottom teeth, big enough for my tongue to barely stick through, even though my teeth are together tightly. It's kind of weird...

Now for a random photo

And now some more





See ya later,
Bethany :)

Big fail

So yesterday, as you should know if you had read my last post, was the first day of my kinda diet.I was SO hungry the entire day. Eating healthy is hard, especially since I babysat at my neighbor's house from 12:20 to exactly 4:32 in the afternoon.
I ate dinner, then went to babysit at another neighbor's house. I almost died as I fixed them chocolate milk...three fourths of it was the chocolate milk, one fourth was the fact that the three girls didn't want me to play with them. My favorite one (I know, I shouldn't play favorites) was pretty much the leader in making them not want to play with me. What am I there for, then? They don't listen to me, they don't want me to play with them, all I'm good for is chocolate milk...I told one of the boys not to stand on the coffee table, he had socks on, he walked, he slipped, his head hit his sister's. Yeah, that's why you don't stand on the coffee table!
Sorry, I'm done ranting now. Back to the whole food situation. When I got home, I had an apple. I went to bed hungry. I had eaten healthy the entire day. I didn't exercise, though.

Now for a random photo, so you're not that bored:

So today I woke up seriously needing something sweet. So I ate something sweet. Please forgive me.
Tomorrow I am definitely starting my diet. :)


That's all for now.
Have a lovely day,

Bethany :)
