^Aw, yay Smokey! That's always exciting.


I am happy today because I earned some money doing a job, found things to finish decorating my room, had some good chats with friends, and am generally in a calm, and good mood right now. It's very needed after a stressful week.

I am totally stoked right now, like seriously :bounce bounce!:

Ok so most of you probably remember this picture I took on Millie's first Birthday


Millie's Birthday! by Azayles, on Flickr

Fast forward almost a year, and Gregg's, a popular Bakers here in the UK, are doing a competition called "Great taste face" where they want you to post a picture of your face as you eat Gregg's food. The prize is a free breakfast.

So I posted this picture of late Millie enjoying her cupcake, and it WON. It ruddy well won didn't it? :P They even featured it on their timeline
And I never win anything! Totally over the moon

That's so awesome Chris!! What an adorable picture! I hope you enjoy your breakfast, do you have any plans for what you'll eat?

I'm very content right now. My AP World History test was on Thursday and I was pretty stressed out about it, but I decided that it wasn't worth worrying about (AP tests don't impact your school grade, and you don't have to include them on your college applications). Took it, it wasn't so completely horribly bad; I'm not confident that I got a passing grade, but whatever. It's over! No need to ever look inside a World History book for the rest of my high school career!

I also finished my Pre-Calculus finals on Thursday and Friday/today. They were okay, but my teacher offered 40% extra credit if we did a few hundred problems as homework, so I'm not going to fail it lol.


I'm so glad it's the weekend--finally, time to relax. This whole week has been pretty hard, I slept at about 2 every day, but the important thing is that I'm done with it. Next week is the last week of school, and also finals week, but most of my classes have either used projects as our final grades, or let us take our finals earlier.

Volunteer orientation classes for the wildlife center are next week too, so I can't wait for those

My cousin is finally in labour so excited, feel like we've all be waiting for this baby for years! It's been about 10 hours and baby Harley's not quite here yet, but I'm hoping she will be soon Super happy right now!

I'm really excited for tomorrow I'm getting a dog and I've finally got my dad to understand that buying Kirkland brand dog food is our best route when it comes to getting food. (I've been looking around lately and it isn't worth 20 to 30 bucks of a 25 lb bag of food that'll only last a month or two). Also, even though this made me question the pet store I went to, I saw rat babies being born yesterday; I might not go back to that store ever again because of it but it was still cute seeing the little babies.

Genevie: That's AMAZING! How excited you all must be!!!

ElyseandSerenity: If you don't make a separate introductory thread and/or picture post of your new dog, I'm afraid I will have to shun you forever.

My math teacher updated our grades and I got a 117%! And I got over 100% on my bug collection box too. The end of the year is turning out great!

@Plushie: I don't think I'll be able to contain myself from taking pictures! So you won't have to worry about that happening because I will be making an introductory thread with pictures.

[Zoe's Zoo]

Hooray!

I loved it so much and I'm absolutely going back one day! I have family there's so that's a good excuse

[HoppingHammy]

Well, today I don't necessarily have any huge, great news that is making me feel happy, other then I just woke up in a very happy mood and that is always nice! Things have been going quite well lately, I have amazing friends, next week I'm meeting with a student advisor to discuss starting photography classes this fall and hopefully that will take my job & photography to another level - even just giving more confidence in my skills would be great, as well as learning new ones!

Hmm what else? Oh, mom and I are going to have some fun this weekend probably shopping and highlighting our hair. That's always nice! So yeah, lots of things putting me in a good mood right now!

I've been meaning to post this for awhile. Anyways I ended up getting great grades in my first year of university! All A's and B's!

I adopted a giant panda It's only £3 a month, but I'm happy knowing I'm making a difference!

[Spangoid]

I want to go adopt a orangutan now...

[Genevie]

I'm excited right now, I have to share, because I have three potential adoptions coming up - worried rescuing unwanted pets may become an obsession...

But here they are (not my pics):


A 6-month old male white-faced roborovski. Been looking for a male this age for a long time so I'm really excited about this. I'm meant to be picking him up on the 25th! His name will be President Nixon, to go with my other robo President Roosevelt (Rose)!


Some baby female mice! I've had a cage set up for mice since forever, but my last adoption fell through at the last minute because of time constraints :( I'm ready for these now though. Not sure how many I'll be getting, still in talks with the girl who has them. She says they'll be ready in a week, so I'm waiting patiently But they're going to have Glee names because I'm obsessed, I admit it.


And a little fire salamander, who is unsexed and unnamed currently. I did some research on these in the past, but only the basics. So I'm trying to research like crazy now to prepare myself. I don't usually advocate last-minute research, but I want this little guy to have a good home and I feel like I could give him that. The owner hasn't replied to my message yet, so this one's not certain.

I want to go adopt a orangutan now...

Dooo itttt!
