Always Interesting Talking to You

So as many of you probably know I have two sisters and one brother. If you didn't know that well then now you do. haha. Anyways! My sister and I were talking a few weeks ago and she asked me to teach her French (because I have four long years of French class under my belt) and I agreed. That was mistake numero uno. hehe. JUST KIDDING CALLIE! :D


Anways tonight we started chatting and this is how our dialogue pretty much went:
(--the dashes symbolize translations--)

Callie: JESSSSIIICCCAAA how come you haven't taught me anything in French except, "may I go to the bathroom" and "grapefruit"???
Jessica: Parce que je suis le professeur de francais!
Callie(glaresat me): I don't know what you just said....
Jessica: *sigh* I said... "because I am the teacher of French!" Fine, fine. I'll teach you something.
Callie: Besides "may I go to the bathroom?"
Jessica: Yes besides may I go to the bathroom...
Callie: Okay, shoot!
Jessica: Repetez!
Callie: Reeyypeyteeez
Jessica: No no not yet!!
Callie: I thought you said repeat!
Jessica: I did but not yet!!!
Callie: FIINE! Are you ready yet?
Jessica: OUI! Okay...repetez! Est-ce que je peux aller aux toilletes?
Callie: NOT AGAIN! I already know how to say may I go the bathroom..
Jessica: hahahhahahahha I know, I just thought it was funny
Callie: grrrrrrr...
Jessica: Okay, okay... "Ou est l'ordinateur?" --means where's the computer?--
Callie: OOoh es ley ordinate--umm I forgot
Jessica: Non, non, non Callie! Repetez: Ou est l'ordinateur?
Callie: ooh ey luhh ordinatey-ree
Jessica: *slaps head* non, non, non, Callie! >>in French accent>> I QUIT!
Callie: Nooooo! YOU'RE FIRED!!
Jessica: FINE!
Callie: FINE!
Jessica: Au revoir ma soeur!! Tu es impossible! --Goodbye my sister! You are impossible!--
Callie then runs upstairs and I sit and think, then proceed to chase her upstairs and give her a bear hug.
Jessica: Je t'aime Callie! --I love you Calie!--
Callie: Je t'aime tu aussi Jessica --I love you Jessica!--
Jessica: Hey you actually learned something!!
Callie: grrrrr....

Well that was one of the many interesting conversations I have had with my
sister! Haha. You haven't heard anything, when my sister Kaitlyn and my little brother Michael get in the middle of it we get even more loud and crazy! Do you have any siblings? Any crazy conversations? I'm all ears! :)

Have a great week you guys!

Somebody lend me 112 dollars QUICK!! There's only one gold tooth smile bracelet left on Fred Flare! Goodness me-what will I do without it? ;)

Moiht on Etsy



I was browsing through the photography section on Etsy and stumbled across a photo of three cups with hearts in them! I thought it was so beautiful, I just had to share it with you. All these lovely photographs came from a man named Tim on Etsy, whose shop is called Moiht. He lives in Buffalo, New York and took up photography because he truly enjoys doing it and he believes no one should go through life not doing something they love.
To see more of his work click here! :)

PS: If you'd like to see where any of the idividual photos came from just click on the photo and it should take you there..Blogger's been giving me issues..haha.

At a Loss With Books

"Books are the carriers of civilization…They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print."- Barbara W. Tuchman
What a cool quote huh?
And I miss this...I miss reading. I really do enjoy books but unfortunately I haven't been able to find any good books in a long time. So with this in mind I must ask you: what are some of your favorite books? HELP!
PS: I have read all the Twilight books- please don't suggest these. hehe. They're pretty good books.. I enjoyed them. :)
