Hello! (A Bit of an Update)

Hi, there! How has everyone been? I'm sorry news and posts from me have been sparse recently - as I've said numerous times before, I've been busy! :) 'Being busy' includes: carving pumpkins (I named mine...! And, although we carve pumpkins, we don't celebrate Halloween), doing double of most of my schoolwork, doing Algebra I (which I've given a category of its own, you see), hiking and rock climbing every weekend with my older brother and his family, squeezing in reading, emailing my pen pal, and
looking forward to my grandparents' visit which is in about three weeks! :)

This is my pumpkin! :)

As you can see, I've been swamped! :) I was also busy today. I helped bake cookies for Home Ec., spent some time with my adorable niece and nephew, read three pages of War and Peace (and three pages only), and did some more Algebra. Tomorrow we are heading off into the vast wilderness and hiking and rock climbing some more! ;) Maybe sometime I'll get some pictures on here to show you!

I even got to stop by Barnes and Noble this week and order my very own copy of Captive of Raven Castle by Jessica Greyson! I'll tell y'all how I like it. :)

On top of it all, I hope to start up a vlog (video blog) soon, but we'll see how that goes! ;)

Heartland's fourth episode this week - Secrets and Lies - was crazy. Heartland's fourth episode of its eighth season was record breaking for CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corp.) - Heartland has now become CBC's longest running one hour show, reaching an amazing 125 episodes! So cool! Heartland really is a fantastic show! I love it. :) Some pretty dramatic things have been developing lately...we'll see where it all leads! You can visit Heartland's site here! Unfortunetly, it's a Canadian show, which means we Americans can't watch it on Sundays when it airs. But, the first five seasons are on Netflix, and you can find most of the other episodes from season 6, 7, and now 8 on YouTube.

Speaking of Heartland, I created my own Heartland board on Pinterest, which is a lot of fun! You can check it out here! I first pinned the Heartland on my Movies and Shows :) board, so I've spent a bit of time switching them over to Heartland's board. :) I'm still not done with that task! :)

Anyways, I'll for sure be back again on Tuesday and Saturday!

Until then!
