Song of the Day #4

Today's song is one I just recently found, made by the band Imagine Dragons.

The song's name is Zero, and I really like the pace and feel of the song.

I hope you like it as much as I do. :)

Hi,

So VBS was Friday and Saturday, both days went well. Mom and I were in charge of crafts so we made jellyfish and tie dyed shirts.

Friday night we made the shirts using a kit that came with many colors. The colors didn't soak into the shirts very well but some of them turned out nice.

Here's mine:

On Saturday we made jellyfish out of paper bowls, ribbon, pipe cleaners, and googly eyes. For those who want to make their own here are the steps you need to take:

1. Turn your paper bowl over and poke a small hole in the middle for the pipe cleaner, this is so you can hang it on something. (Do not add the pipe cleaner yet)

2. Decorate your bowl using whatever you want to use. (We used crayon but marker or paints may work too)

3. Flip your bowl up right and get tape or glue to add your ribbon. (We used a hot glue gun and tape)

4. Cut the ribbon to the length you want and attach it to the inside of the bowl. (We used party streamers and different types of ribbon.)

5. Once the ribbon is connected, flip it back over and glue your googly eyes on the side of the bowl. (You will not see the top of the bowl. This is done last so you have less chance of knocking the eyes off.)

6. Insert the pipe cleaner and bend the end inside the bowl to keep it in place.

Now you can hang it anywhere you want. Of course this is what we did, feel free to add anything else you would like.

Entry and Song of the Day #3

Hi everyone!

So not much has happened lately except everyone getting sick. I don't really have much to say other than I've been driving some.

On another note, who else is looking forward to October?

October is one of my favorite months, mainly because of Halloween. Since I'm too old to trick or treat, I may either take my sister and cousins or give out candy. Either way, I'm excited for it.

The Song of the Day is a symphonic metal remix made by a youtuber that goes by the name StringStorm. It has no lyrics but I think its a pretty awesome song despite that.

The song is called 'It Is A Mystery'.

Thanks for reading! :)

Entry and Song of the Day #2

Hi everyone!

So yesterday I wasn't really home for most of the day so I didn't really post anything. We were at our church for most of the day because of the services and the decorating for the Vacation Bible School program.

Vacation Bible School, or VBS, is a program our church does every year for kids to learn and have fun. This year's theme is based of the ocean so we were putting up all sorts of decorations all over the building. We even have an inflatable pool raft that looks like a shark, dangling from the upstairs railing.

Today however not much is going on. I've been relaxing for the most part but I may bring out the painting and work on that.

The Song of the Day is by a band that I listen to fairly often called Wild Fire. The song is called 'Not an Option' and is one of my favorite songs from them, along with their song 'Villains'.

Thank you for reading. :)

Entry and Song of the Day #1

So far nothing much happened today.

I just kinda relaxed, and read some stories online. I watched some YouTube videos but that was about it.

Just a relaxing Saturday so far.

I may be doing something with my boyfriend later today though. So I'm looking forward to that.

I was going through my music playlist on YouTube and found a band I used to listen to. I still listen to them but not as much. The band name is The Score and their music is really upbeat and positive for the most part. I really like them and encourage you to check them out.

I'm thinking of posting a 'Song of the Day' kind of thing from now on, so here is one of The Score's songs that I really like:
