pic of the week

okay so i said that i wanted to do a pic of the week, but the picture i wanted is part of a set of seven so i'll do one per week for, you guessed it, seven weeks! so this is a collection of wine glasses based on the seven deadly sins (if you don't know what they are click here) not unlike the song by Flogging Molly. this one is wrath...




so basically wrath means anger, impatience with law, and often leads to revenge. the main picture on the site kinda depicts a sling for wine. so yup, that's how i paraphrase it. i'll put the link to the site at the end of the seven weeks, unless you want to spoil the whole thing and search online. please don't. it will make me sad :(

turn or burn? really?

i've realized churches can get quite creative with their signs. for the past couple summers i go to simposonville, kentucky for the saddlebred scene (whoot!) and every year, that faithful (no pun intended) church sign reads "turn or burn". normally, i'd find this totally offensive, but now it's just funny. So here is a small collection of odd church signs...





We must alert the elders!


political pun? i would think so

Really?

this is not the first time i've seen a scandalous church sign. i saw another sign in simpsonville that said "your best position is knealing" silly people


and it helps if you have good grammer.

note: satin is a fabric, if you didn't know

it's very amusing finding these signs. oh and there's a collection of them in church signs across america. i found in what on earth catalog, but it's probably at your local bookstores. if you'd like to generate your own church sign here. it's fun!

feet hurt but worth it

god i smell so bad. haha, that's great to announce. this morning i went riding, and it was so amazing. probably one of my best rides ever! i gave my horse mac extra apple slices. before i left i checked up on my old horse harley. his eye got a really painful cataract, a couple months ago, so we got it removed to find out his other eye was useless. so now he's completly blind which is really depressing. he still can find me by my voice and gobble up treats though.

directly after riding, i needed to go up to the agriculture barn (for my school district) to feed my animals. i'm a FFA officer (formally known as future farmers of america, but now is just an abbreviation like SAT. no i do not want to be a farmer) and have a lamb & goat that i show named moe & ollie. also i had my first CVA I training (certified veterinary assistant) session up there. it was actually really interesting. i got to vaccinate and deworm one of the lambs. i pricked my finger with a needle, which looked really stupid and kinda hurt. plus there was a uber cute guy at the training ^^ that was a nice bonus. don't blame me, i'm just a girl. i finally got home like an hour ago, my feet aching. who knew rubber boots could hurt so much?

freshman feeling

wow do i feel like a freshman all over again. haha. hello! because this is my first blog thingy, i'd like to introduce myself. you can call me pumpkin, it's a nickname. i can get super crazy sometimes, and random all the time, slightly weird and quite smart if i do say so myself. i have a huge personality for someone whose 5 feet tall (thus the name short and ironic). i'm proud of my asian-ness and my fun-sized...ness. haha. i love music, a lot, along with writing, animals, bassists, converse, Threadless, and cool ranch doritos.

anywayys, i'm trying to make this as short as i can. this blog is about my general life, and my aspriation of becoming a vet. if i sound interesting sent me a message or something, i promise i will respond. if i sound uber stupid or boring, don't. hope everybody's having a peachy keen day and i hope to post some fun blogs.
