All White

My great aunts are two of the greatest cooks I know. They cook tables and tables and tables of food for EVERY holiday, even memorial day! My sister and I look forward to holidays more than just about anything :). Good old-fashioned country cooking is their specialty, and I love it. Oddly enough, my family always makes fun of me for the food I chose. Every single speck of food is white, and apparently this isn't normal. I can't help that I am alergic to vegetables...well thats not entirely true. I just would prefer to eat my monochromatic meal over green junk! I just can't wait until Thanksgiving this year. Bring on the mashed potatoes and dumplings!!!

NO!

I have a love/hate relationship with my laptop. On the days when it actually loads websites and moves faster than the pace of a slug, I like it. But, on days like today, I feel the constant urge to punch it, throw it to the ground, then jump on it! I can't count how many STUPID times that box asking, "Do you want to restart your computer?" has popped up! It absolutely drives me up the wall and has really been testing my patience. For instance, I have clicked NO I DO NOT WANT TO RESTART MY COMPUTER four times since I began writing this very blog :( If only technology always did what I wanted it to do...

Must....keep...reading

Hi, my name is Taylor and I am addicted to reading. Once I start I can't stop, the desire to finish the book takes control, and I'm not joking. Ever since I've been reading Junie B. Jones I have been this way. Just enjoying reading a book is a difinite understatement, I get obsessed! For example, the last two nights I have been up til 3:30 reading! In my mind I know it isn't rational, but I can't help myself. I kept thinking to myself, just five more minutes....five more minutes. The problem is, the final five minutes doesn't occur until I finish the book. I would never wish to not love reading, I just would prefer not to be so obsessed.

Criminal Minds

I absolutely have NO time to watch television anymore. Its quite depressing considering how much I love relaxing while watching a good show. Its amazing how much happiness I get out television. What show might you ask is my favorite?? My favorite shows have evolved from I Love Lucy, Law and Order SVU, to my recent favorite Criminal Minds. Criminal Minds is greatest show in the entire world! Well, at least it is to me. It isn't just a crime show, but it actually gets into the minds of the criminals to catch them, hence the title. I look forward to the gripping episode all week long. It excites me way to much!

for the past and future

I feel like I make many decisions in hopes my parents and grandparents will be proud. I constantly find myself thinking about what would make my family happy, which might not be the best thing. Living to please other people usually isn't a good game plan, but I have found that it is okay in moderation. As long as I still make decisions to make myself happy, life is going to be good. I live for the future in prayers that I can have a family and a life I can look back on and be pleased with. The thought of ending up with a plain ole mediocre life scares me to death!!
