Bucket List CONTEST!!!

Hi y'all! I hope you guys are having an awesome Halloween so far :)! So, I was looking at my 15 bucket list and I found that I have done almost half of the things I wanted to do this year already! I have tried something new at Starbucks (btw, it was a Java chip frappe), I read Blood of Olympus, I read a book in one day, I rearranged my room, I found a good book series to read, and a few other things. Because I'm almost halfway through, I need more things to do this year! So, to get more things to do this year for my bucket list, I am holding a contest! Starting tomorrow (Saturday, November 1st), you guys can scout out ideas for my bucket list and the one I think is the best one will get a shout out on my blog! How the contest works is: When you find an idea for my bucket list, then you comment on this post! It's that simple! If you have multiple ideas, you can comment those too! The contest will last for a week, so it ends on Saturday, November 8th.  I can't wait to see your ideas! Happy Halloween! ~Azzi~

Halloween! ...and Christmas? :)

Hey followers and onlookers of Azziness!!! I hope you guys are doing well :). So, this weird realization hit me today: Christmas is coming up soon! Now, how this crazy idea came to my head was that my family and I started making our Christmas lists today and we sent the beginnings of our lists to our extended family. Also, I've heard people already shopping for gifts for Christmas. Is it just me, or does Christmas seem to be coming early this year? Personally, Christmas is my favorite holiday, so I don't mind preparing things for it a little earlier than usual :). Wow, I just realized that tomorrow is Halloween and I'm talking about Christmas!!! That's shows my obsession for Christmas :). Anyway, I hope you guys have a fun Halloween tomorrow and an awesome Christmas when that comes around :D. ~Azzi~

Poll: Are you a dog person or a cat person?

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.

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!

Elephant Appreciation day!!!

Hello Wonderful Followers! And hello people visiting my blog! I want to remind you that if you like my blog, you can subscribe by email in the sidebar to the right over in this direction. ----->


Anyway, today is Elephant Appreciation day. I have no idea why it is Elephant Appreciation day, but I thought it would be fun to share random facts about elephants :).


Fact 1) Elephants go through the longest pregnancy of 22 months
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~
