Day 31 - A Picture of Yourself

So, the last day. I have to admit, it is slightly sad that I am done. But also a bit of a relief. I almost forgot today! But now March is over, as well as this challenge. I will, of course, blog again, but I might take some time off. But not too much time! However, school is a priority, so if I don't have time, I won't be on here. Thanks for reading my posts!

Day 30 - A Picture of Someone You Miss

This is Bubbe, my step grandmother. She passed away way too early at the age of 48 in May, almost 3 years ago due to breast cancer she had been fighting ever since I could remember. She was an amazing woman, and I will always love and miss her. She was always an inspiration, even finishing her Bat Mitzvah the summer before she passed away. Having her die was one of the hardest moments in my life, as she was slightly younger than my own mother. She seemed like an aunt more than a grandmother, but she was wise beyond her years. I really miss my Bubbe, though everyone else knew her as Joni Singer. It was especially hard on my grandpa when she died. For a few months after she passed away, most of the cards we received had the word "and" written after his name, then crossed out. They were such a great couple. She was perfect for my gandpa. And when we went to their house during Christmas time, we would have presents under the treee, but also light tht Menorah. I love and miss you Bubbe, more than you'll ever know.

Day 29 - A Picture That Can Always Make You Smile

My Dad, on his mission to kill the bugs outside. =) He had all different types of insecticides, and bug sprays, and the fly swatter. He was all ready to get those bugs! It all started because we noticed we had some wood bees living in our deck, and Dad was determined to get rid of them. So while the rest of them (I was on my way back from baby-sitting) enjoyed a lovely evening outside, my Dad had the tools and was waiting to pounce. The look on his face in this picture looks to me like he is just waiting and daring the bugs to try and bug him, no pun intended.

Day 28 - A Picture of Something You're Afraid Of

Fire, specifically unplanned fires. I absolutely hate them! I will literally get nightmares from them. Which is ironic, since I picked fire as my inspiration for my Studio project. I think fire is beautiful, but terrifying. Like a polar bear. Home fires are the worst, followed by forest fires. I have had many experiences with things burning down, or catching on fire, but luckily never my home. In Raleigh, our church caught on fire. In Seattle, out middle school kitchen caught on fire. In Erie, our dinning hall Dobbins caught on fire. In State College, Simmons did catch on fire, but it was nothing serious, only having to wake up at 7 to go outside when I had a 102 degree fever. And no, it was not me that set it. I have learned a lot about fire, and fire prevention, but it still scares me so much. I can't even watch the live action version of "The Secret Garden" because there is a scene where they burn the main character's doll because of the plague. So terrifying. I honestly don't know what I would do if my house caught on fire. It is also ironic that I work for a candle store.... That place would be awful if it went up in flames, especially since it is a very old building... So that's what I am afraid of. That and falling from heights.

Day 27 - A Picture of Yourself and a Family Member

From left to right, Nick, myself, Julie, Grammie, Lucas, and Kyra, right before we celebrated my Grammie's birthday! We went on a limo tour around Buffalo, and had a fun time! We even went up to Niagara Falls that evening for the awesome light show. We have been so many times, but it is still always pretty cool. Unless your feet hurt from 4 inch stilettos. Even though we are missing 3 grandchildren from this picture, it is awesome seeing everyone. And then the next day I turned 19!

Day 26 - A Picture of Something that Means A Lot to You

My doggy, Serena! She is a half black lab, half golden retriever. We originally got her when we were training her to be a guide dog for the blind, but unfortunately she was career changed because of her knees. So now she is ours! She is so sweet and loving; I really miss her when I am away at school. She loves everyone, is so soft and loves to be petted. She always acts like she hasn't seen you in forever, even if you just step out of the room for 5 minutes. I just love her so much!

Day 25 - A Picture of Your Day

Classes with my friends... Here we are about to leave AE 221 and go to EE 211! Friday is my crazy busy day, when we're in class solid from 8 am to 2:15 pm. We were going to be late for our next class, so we rushed this picture. Lowell didn't want to be in the picture, so I made him take the picture. These are the people I'm forced to spend all my time with.... Just kidding, I love them all.
