Hey followers! I changed the poll for you guys!!! The question I would like to know about my followers is if you guys are dog people or cat people. The option to get the most votes will have a picture of either a very cute dog or very cute cat be the background of my blog for three days :). So make sure you vote in the sidebar!!! Have fun! ~Azzi~

15 year old Bucket List

My wonderful followers,
Can you guys believe that its already October? Even crazier, can you believe this year ends in only 3 months? I cannot believe it! Well, its unbelievable for me because, as I've mentioned before in this blog, my birthday is in October. My birthday is a week from now and I am going to be turning 15. This blog post is about a tradition that I started last year for my birthday :). Last year, there were a lot of things that I wanted to accomplish the year I was 14. As I was writing them down a little after my birthday, I thought, why not make a bucket list of things to complete before I turn 15? Now that my birthday is coming up, I'm trying to quickly cross off a few things :). But, I have been thinking of the bucket list I'm going to make to complete before I turn 16. So, below are the things I have so far!


15 year old Bucket List
1. Read a book backwards
2. Have a silly string fight
3. Get 100 followers on Instagram
4. Bake a dessert that I've never baked before
5. Read a book in one day
6. Try something new at Starbucks
7. Make a huge chocolate chip cookie
8. Take lots of pictures and print them, then hang them up on my wall in my room as a collage.
9. Rearrange my room
10. Finish the Lunar Chronicles
11. Do a photo challenge every month
12. Try chocolate bacon (I've heard it's good! Don't judge :])
13. Plan Sweet Sixteen
14. Watch Avengers 2
15. Begin writing a book
16. Have a photo shoot with friends
17. Find a good series you haven't read before
18. Read the Driver's Manual
19. Make a collage on poster board using pictures you've taken or scraps of magazines
20. Complete "Wreck this Journal"
21. Watch all the episodes of a new TV show on Netflix
22. Expand blog :)
23. Get 500 followers on Pinterest
24. Make paracord bracelets and give them to people
25. Reread the Christy Miller series
26. Have a Disney Movie Marathon
27. Record a day in my life
28. Try Hair Chalk
29. Go on a shopping spree with friends
30. Carve something into a tree






That is what I have so far! If you have any more bucket list ideas that I don't have listed, feel free to comment ideas! Also if you see something like "Watch all the episodes of a new TV show on Netflix", and have an idea of a  TV show I would like, then feel free to comment suggestions about things I should watch, read, or whatever to help me finish this bucket list on time :). You guys are awesome and I hope you guys have a great week!!! ~Azzi~

Elephant Appreciation day!!!

Fact 2) Elephants don't actually like peanuts.
Fact 3) African elephants cannot run. In order to run they'd have to lift all four feet from the ground.
Fact 4) Elephants can get sunburned. In order to prevent sunburns, they roll in sand.
Fact 5) The largest elephant was a male at 24,000 pounds and he was 13 feet at the shoulder.
Fact 6) The average weight of an elephants heart is 27 to 46 pounds
Fact 7) Elephants purr, like cats, as a way of communication
Fact 8) An elephant's trunk has 40,000 muscles in it
Fact 9) Elephants use their ears to cool down their body temperature because of the many blood vessels in their ears.
Fact 10) Elephants can hear each other's calls made by their trunks from 5 miles away.


I hope you enjoyed these random facts about elephants :)! They are quite awesome animals and I hope you learned a lot about them! Happy Animal Appreciation day! Also, since tomorrow (September 23rd) is the first day of fall, I have changed the look of the blog to an autumn theme! I hope you like it! See ya'll! ~Azzi~

About My Post: Birthday Gift List

Hey followers! I just found out something crazy about my blog post called "Birthday Gift List". Do you remember when I said in the post that September was the month with the most birthdays in America? Well, when I looked into that a little more after I posted the post, I found out that the most popular day for people in America to have their birthday is September 16th, which was the day I posted that post about birthday gift ideas. Funny, right? I just thought that was interesting :). If any of you guys have a birthday in September, comment below and I will post something special for you September birthdays :). Anyway, I hope you guys are having a great weekend and I'll make sure to post soon! ~Azzi~

Birthday Gift List

Hey Followers! I know this is like the gizillionth time I've told you guys this, but I am so sorry for not posting very often! I have been busy with school so I haven't been able to post very much. Another reason I haven't been posting is because I haven't thought of any good ideas for blogging. The break I've taken from posting has given me time to find things to post!  But, I am definitely going to try to post more often for you guys :). So, here we go!


Fun Fact: The month that most people in America have their birthdays in is September. Another Fun Fact: My birthday is in a month!  So it seems pretty fit to make a post about birthday presents to give your friends and family that were born in September, or anytime of the year! Enjoy the list!


My Ultimate List For Birthday Presents
1. Nail Polish: this is really easy and pretty much all girls love it! This is a perfect gift to add with other things if you think your present isn't quite enough.
2. Notebook/Sketchbook: have a crafty person in mind? This is the perfect gift! There are tons of different notebooks and sketchbooks that have awesome designs.
3. Candy: find out the birthday person's candy and then, done! You have an awesome gift! I have found that if you don't know what they're favorite candy is, then a great candy to settle with is chocolate :).
4. Duck Tape: this has been a fad for a while, but if you go to Hobby Lobby, there are lots of cool designs that you can choose from. From bacon to mustaches and polka dots to zebra print!
5. Jewelry: Almost every girl loves jewelry! And if they have their ears pierced, there are more choices to choose from!
6. Headphones: I have seen lots of cute designs for earphones lately and they are a perfect present for that girl who loves gadgets!
7. Gift Cards: I know this one may be a little obvious, but here is a list of gift cards that are pretty popular today: Amazon, Starbucks, Walmart, and Target.
8. Sunglasses: this one may seem really silly, but I got purple zebra sunglasses as a gift once, and I love them! There are so many designs that your friend or family that you have in mind will love!
9. Fuzzy socks/slippers: as it is getting colder and colder (hopefully slowly :]) fuzzy socks or slippers are awesome presents! Neon fuzzy socks and slippers are fun to wear and would be a great thing to consider too.
10. Color scheme gift: what is your family/friend's favorite color? Base the gift off that! One friend who I was shopping for had the favorite color of orange. I got orange nail polish, candy, washcloth (the ones that unfold under water :]), and the box I put it all in was orange. She loved it!


That was the list! But, for fun, below I have a list of a few celebs that have a birthday in September!


September 1st: Zendaya (Shake it up!)
September 3rd: Shaun White (Olympic snowboarder)
September 5th: Skandar Keynes (Edmund in Narnia)
September 8th: Martin Freeman (Bilbo in the Hobbit)
September 17th: Mia Talerico (Charlie from Good Luck Charlie)
September 24th: Kevin Sorbo (What if?, Soul Surfer)
September 26th: Serena Williams (tennis player)
September 28th: Hilary Duff (Lizzy McGuire)
September 29th: Zachary Levi (Flynn Rider in Tangled)


So, I hope you've enjoyed this post after so long that I haven't posted! Make sure you vote in the poll! I really want to know more about my followers! Also, just so you guys know, I may do a blog series soon, I won't tell you all the details yet because I am still in the process of planning it, but if I plan to do it, be excited!  You guys are such awesome followers for sticking in there even when I don't post for awhile! ~Azzi~

Story time!

Hello my wonderful followers! I am back and today I'm going to do something that I have never done before, but I mentioned I would do it when I started this blog, so this should be fun! Below, there is going to be a picture and you guys have to write a story behind it. You can post it in the comments, write it down in a journal, or just think about what you would write in your head. If you need help thinking of ideas, I have some questions below for you to think about to get your creative juices flowing. I will post mine tomorrow for you guys to see. Enjoy!

Here are some questions to ask yourself to help you get started: Where does this path lead to? What creatures are around this path? What time is it? Who is with you down this path? Or is a fictional character going down the path? Who is with them?
