A Terrible Loss

On Monday February 4, a 15 year old boy brought a gun to his Oklahoma High School, and took his own life in a bathroom stall.  His name of Triston Stephens.  Authorities say there is still no exact answer as to why he committed suicide, although they believe bullying may have been involved.

R.I.P Triston

If you are being bullied, don't be afraid to ask for help.  I know it's scary.  I know it's hard.  I've been there.   But there are people who care, who will listen, even though you may not feel like it.  YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

If you are thinking about suicide, please, please talk to someone, or call the suicide hotline for your area:

Don't give up on yourself.  You are beautiful, wonderful, and perfect the way you are.  You deserve to live.  This world would not be the same without you.

Fun at the State Fair

This past Tuesday, my mom and I went to the local state fair to shop and things that are horribly bad for you.

We had a few errands to run before and while we were out my nana called to tell us that Micheal's was having a sale on their Halloween stuff, so of course we went there first!  All that I got there will be revealed in my upcoming massive Halloween post! mwahahaha!!

Anywho, since we were over in that area, we decided to run into Barnes & Nobles and Party City.

When we went into Barnes & Nobles, I only planned on grabbing a few magazines I've been wanting and heading out.  Well that didn't happen, because on our way to the check out I saw the magical Nightmare Before Christmas display they had.  It was wonderful :) 

I ended up getting the cutest little Jack plushy and a POP! vinyl Sally toy.

I love them so much!

Next we went to Party City where I found skull shot glasses for 99 cents and the prettiest spider necklace.

And now the world knows I have a fleckley chest. Oh, well.

Finally, we headed to the fair!

When we got there, we instantly headed to the buildings and started shopping! Here's all the goodies we stumbled across in the first building:

Spirit hood!

Camera face

Fang Necklace!

More freckle chest...sorry...

Skull Ring!

Mustache ring!

We then headed over to the other building, where among the shopping, my mom and I decided that I should hop on a wooden pony attraction prop they had and have my picture taken

Natural born cowgirl right here.  I totally don't look out of place or anything....

We then proceeded to shop.  Now this is where I got just a liiiitle bit nerdy.  You guys know how I love Black Butler and Death Note?  Well, I found some booths that sold stuff for them.  Like this:

Black Butler!!!!!!

As for Death Note, I found a lanyard with L on it and *drum roll* A DEATH NOTE NOTEBOOK!! with some 3D pictures and glasses.

It's got all the rules in it and everything! *nerding out*

Anyways, I also grabbed some hello kitty sunglasses!

Before we left we took one more picture:

I had so much fun hanging out with my momma! It left us both dead tired but was totally worth it.

Now, I'm going to go eat some chili that my nana made because it is finally cold outside!

Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Wild Fires

The past few days, there have been many wild fires that are burning out of control all around the state.  People in several different counties were forced to evacuate their homes as the fires intensified.  The fires are suspected to caused by arson, as multiple witnesses said they saw vehicles throwing pieces of burning news paper out of car and truck windows before speeding away.

Here are a few photo's from various news stations of the fires (i do not take credit for these):

The aftermath of one area

Even the areas that were not in the fire's path were affected as smoke covered the sky and ash fell like rain across the state.  All day Saturday, the sky put off an eerie copper glow as if a filter hand been placed over the sun.  As evening approached, the clouds of smoke became more visible and began to eat the sun, which had turned into an electric red ball.  Before the ash fall got bad, I ran out and took a few pictures of the sky where I live (not directly effected by the fires)

The white and grey "clouds" were actually a mixture of smoke and ash.

Later last night, we were watching television when we heard things blowing violently outside and hail hitting our house.  When we looked out the windows, we could smell smoke very strongly.  The lights began to flicker on and off and we ran to our front door to see what was going on.  When we looked out, we saw something bright orange flash a block from us.  Fearing it might be another fire, we jumped in our car (I had to wear a mask due to the fast falling ash and my asthma) to see if it was indeed a fire.  Luckily, it was just a street light flashing as electricity flickered on and off.  During our drive, we saw that the storm had flipped our dumpster, and thrown many of our neighbors dumpster into the street, and someones basketball hoop toppled over.  A street over, people were picking up branches that had been ripped from their trees.

The bright side of this storm is it seems to have helped the firemen put out some of the fires, although there are still a few burning today.

Please keep the victims of this tragedy in your hearts, as the coming days will not be easy.
