End of school year blog!

Sooo, I’m extra excited to get these exams over and finally start Summa ’17 ! These next few days are going by the slowest, honestly. I think everyone can agree. I’m kind of excited to do my exams. I’ve really been trying my best and I think I’ve really been getting better at subjects I was slacking in. I think I’ll do pretty well. Who would’ve thought I, Taylor Alexandra Brandon, would be excited for exams?! Knowing lazy old me! Haha…Welp..It means we’re finally out! Which is also why I’m so excited, when I get out for summer I can sleep for about two days straight lol. Just what I need about now! I’m starting to look like a crackhead from the lack of sleep and sun these days.

I plan to go away with my dad to Miami over the long weekend which is in the middle of June, Then I can be cute all summa long  :P. When I touch down in Cayman I will be seeking a little summer job, possibly with a doggy day care, the vet orrr with my uncle. I’m also going to go for my drivers license. Woot woot clear the streets Tay on the loose haha, that’s if I pass ;) I can’t wait to go on all kinds of crazy adventures and do some stupid, fun stuff. I’ll come back after summer with many blog ideas. 

Diving Vlog.

Below is a little video of my brother and I out on the water, my dad is the videographer.You will notice we went in a make-do small boat :) Anywaays we went out looking for conchs, but this video just shows us diving and handing my dad two sand dollars.We saw so many conchs on the ocean floor that day!Hundreds in fact.  Very peaceful and beautiful day it was.

Blog Review.

The weekend blogger… I find this person’s blog cool because they write about their weekends, just as I do. However in my eyes their blog is better and more detailed. They use some large, interesting words which help to excite and hook you into continuing reading their post. I aspire to make my blogs this great one day because I feel that mine are not as detailed and fascinating. There is not really anything about this blog that I can say that I dislike. I find it very attention grabbing and that is the main reason I aspire for mine to be this good. I believe this blog is popular because it is real. This is not some uptight boring blog, they use things to hook you. I also believe people can relate with this blogger and it just gives people something peaceful and cool to read when unwinding for the night Here is an example of some of the language used “I got off the metro and assessed the fury of the sun’s rays. There was a breeze blowing which took out some intensity off the Delhi summer’s heat. I hurried out of the station and found myself a rickshaw to take me to the office. It was a long straight stretch of a road and it was empty. I plugged in my earphones to get some music into my system during the routine rickshaw ride. She came pedalling down the road on a cycle and overtook us”  

Birthday Shenanigans.

This weekend I celebrated my birthday since my actual birthday is tomorrow (May 9^th). I was kind of disappointed that I didn’t get to go to a hotel for the weekend but my mom promised me a trip at the end of the month, I prefer that to be honest. Anyways I had a great weekend, my friends and I slept in my old class room, we put two mattress’  in there and we blasted music and danced the entire time we were home. On Saturday morning we rode wave runners. The water was rather dark where we were riding and I was scared to drop in the water. My friends kept throwing me drop off and the last time that I got thrown off, I got real because I fell off and the wave runner was far from me and we were out far, I couldn’t see anything in the water plus my belly button ring came out. I cussed my friend,I was miserable for a good while. Anyways, we then went to watch the parade and I saw lots of our friends. IT was funny watching the badness all of the drunk people were going on with. After this, we went home and we just talked a bunch of foolishness and did ‘nuff crazy things. On Sunday, my mom, and two best friends and I went to church, I felt good because I never go to church anymore! After church we went to lunch and then the beach. We also cut my ice-cream cake. It was a very peaceful and memory-filled weekend with the people I love most! Great birthday so far, can’t wait till the actual date and to see what I do over the long weekend coming up!

On the wataa

This weekend, because my mom doesn’t usually go out on the water I decided to drag her along with my dad and I. I brought my dog Lisa because she’s the only one of my small dogs that enjoys water. She stood in the front of the boat, she was just enjoying the breeze. It wasn’t a fishing trip I just wanted to be out on the water and just swim around to see if I found anything interesting in the water. I took a water proof bag for my phone and swam around taking pictures of the coral and fish. I found a few conchs, I made my mom dive them just for fun, I wanted to see if she could do it. I’ve never seen my mom swim! She up until I was 15 I’ve never seen my mom in the water, other than when I was a baby which I would not remember at all. So only now she started going beaching a little bit. I’ve never seen her swim though. It was a funny sight watching her try to dive the conchs. I even got in the boat and drove it off a little bit so I could see her swimming, she was a little panicked lol. My phone died while I was out there so I didn’t get any videos or anything of her.

Agriculture Show Shenanigans

During my mid-term break I went to the agriculture show with my friends. It was hot like a damn sauna! I don’t even sweat and I felt like I had just come out of a pool. My favorite thing on display were the little piglets! They were so precious. Although I felt bad thinking, one day they’ll become baconL The little pigs seemed quite content however the enormous ones appeared to be suffering, they were flopped out and oinking. A lady had to keep taking a hose to cool them off. After feeling sorry for the pigs I went over to the mechanical bull with my friend Arleny, she went first and got thrown off.So it was now my turn...I got on and I was like ohh this is easy man! It was going fairly slow. Out of nowhere it started spinning in circles fast, I hit my face on the head of the bull and fell off. Everyone’s sound effects were like “oooh”. After laughing it off, my cousin and I went and got hennas. We were boiling hot! We all went and got in my mom’s car because she wasn’t ready to leave but we NEEDED a/c. While waiting on my mom, my friend drove the car around. We were just blasting music and eating mangos with mango sauce. When I got home, I showed my brother and dad the video of me riding the bull. They laughed and said I’m “wutless”, I told ‘em to shut up! I swear it really was going faster than it appeared. They only laughed because it wasn’t them being spun around, holding onto a bandana. >.< 

Flopped out piggy

Room Project.

On Monday I got my uncle to paint my room for me as I’m now older and have gotten sick of the obnoxious blue. He took foreverrrr to paint it. He is super lazy and kept making excuses as to why he would just come back the next day, I hated my room being so messy and not being able to sleep in it. We bought two gallons of paint and it ran out because the blue was so bright we had to put two coats plus paint my bathroom and closet. My dad went to get the quart since it was only edging that my uncle had left to do. I was happy when I came home on Thursday, from school because I was told it was finished. I rushed in my room to see as I got there and I realized that this was a completely different tone from the rest of the room! I was so mad. So was my dad! He started cussin’ and boxed my door. My uncle never noticed because he thought it would get lighter as I dried! It didn’t… anyways my dad went and got the guys to mix another one, because apparently some paints cannot be mixed by the quart or it will come out different from the gallon. It got painted correctly and I was happy. I felt like while I was at it I should do some other things to neaten up my room. I took and spray painted my ugly cork board that I keep pictures on and a few other small items around my room. Smart little me took and spray painted on top of a big glass table that my mom has outside. My brain clearly was not clicking and now this glass is dark brown and gold! It won’t come offfff.. let’s just say my mom could be happier….. lol.
