Vermont inmates hide pig in official police car decal

In vermont, an inmate cleverly drew a pig within an official logo on a police car. The officer claimed to have found it within the mountains in the logo, but the inmate said it was in the cow. I looked myself and couldn't find it, but it was very entertaining that an inmate drew something like that in a police logo, especially because I don't like cops. Great article overall.

Tom Brady: Most hated man in Buffalo

Tom Brady, Quarterback of the New England Patriots, is officialy the most hated man in Buffalo. Why? After his comments in a press conference about the support from his dad quote "And even when I started my pro career, he traveled to Buffalo. I don't know if you guys have ever been to the hotels in Buffalo -- they're not the nicest places in the world -- but he would still travel to those". Though he apologized right after and told the writers not to write that down, it was too late and the damage had been done. Really not a cool move from Tom talking trash about Buffalo, and for you non football people, the rival town. I mean he did tell the writers not to write it and apologized and stuff, but really? The overall article was decent, nothing flashy, but hey I enjoyed it.

Tough Love

My family and I have quite the interesting relationship. Being the youngest in the family, I always get picked on. That's understandable. The things my parents and brother say to me can come across to other people as mean, sometimes flat out rude. But deep down, I know it's just their way of saying 'Ash, I love you!'. Here are a few examples of the latest coversations my family has had with me:

Me: "Mom, remember that one guy I was telling you about? Yeah, he likes me..."
Mom: "How do you know?"
Me: "Because I'm obviously like the guy-whisperer."
Mom: "Not based off your past relationships."

Ouch. Okay that one kinda hurt. Yes Mom, I have had a few unsuccessful relationships--even a couple that have left me on the couch eating ice cream for weeks. She doesn't understand that my 'uniqueness' is too much for guys to handle. It's cool, I don't blame them.

Here is another comment my brother made to me the other day:

*my brother and I are watching The Bachelor and one of the girls is crying*
Me: "She still looks pretty while crying. God, I'm such an ugly cryer.."
Kyle: "Hahahahahahahaha! Oh my god, YES you are. I have always thought that but never wanted to say anything. But now that you admitted it, yes you are! You get this like, ugly thizz face goin..."

I have no comment on that one....

Originality Since 1994



I dont know if you have heard of her, but there is this girl named Alexis Nyal who goes to Whitney. She made a Facebook page for all the pictures she takes and it's called "Originality Since 1994". If you haven't seen this page then you should definitely go look at it! Alexis currently has an album called "366" where she posts a photo everyday of the year. As well, she has many other albums from prior years including senior portraits and shoots of her friends with their families. If you haven't been on this page, it's worth looking at!

Sweaters...on Friday



Sweaters are always better on a Friday.


The comfort and warmth of knitted wool is the best, I say.


So come, let's have fun today.


Because I am wearing a sweater on Friday.

Dog/Cat Sitting

So for the past few weeks I have been dog-sitting a lot, its not that hard and it's easy money, but it seems like the lady that I dog sit for is starting to become so reliant on me that it happens once or twice every week Since she is a single mom, she recently found a boyfriend and has been going out of town a lot to see him, as well as go to LA for work. The dog is locked up all day in the backyard and then comes in at night only to be locked up in the kitchen. I really feel that before she decided to get a dog, she should have thought about how much time she was going to be out of town... for the dog's sake.

This weekend, however I am really excited to go and cat-sit my cousin's kittens. They are so funny and have a lot of energy.

The most stressful thing for ALL Junior girls...

Soooooo I'm pretty much freaking out about Junior Prom. I still need a date, a dress, a party bus, and figure who out of all my friends are going; and we don't have much time. There's only 51 days left until March 24. That might seem like a lot, but in reality that is not much time at all!!

Anyway I know everything is going to work out, but just planning everything is stressful and it gives me anxiety thinking about it. I'm not as worried about getting a dress as I am getting a date. I know I'll find a dress and I'm sure the process for the most part will be fun. However the whole date situation makes me so stresses! I really want to go with someone but I just have no idea who I would go with, I would rather just go with one of my guy friends and have a good time and not really worry and be all nervous. The other problem is helping all my other friends find dates because they say they're not going if they don't have dates, and of course I want my friends to go! That's the whole part of prom is to spend time with your friends!
