Surprise!

So this morning I was talking to the bestby before church and I asked him what he was up to today. He said washing his car and something else with a ;) Being the perceptive person I am, I knew that meant he was going to ask me to prom. Him asking what time I get back from church the day before also helped hahaha! I didn't know how he was going to though so I was excited all day.

My parents and the Tanman spoke in church today! They did an excellent job. It was so weird seeing my little brother up there speaking! He was just asking what soap was the other day, now he's speaking in church?! Gasp! My parents were pretty funny, my mom cleared up the fact that I'm the older sister. A year ago I would be ok with that because she was more mature than me at times, but not now that she's going through her angsty phase while I'm acting like an adult. Hahaha! But my mom talked about how secular knowledge and spiritual go hand in hand and how spiritual helps with everything. It was good :) And my dad gave people good quotes for facebook and showed them what a floppy disk was. I love my dad he's funny. But I love hearing him talk he's so smart and I like the way he thinks.

Back to my surprise. So after church we pulled up at the house and I was looking all around for who knows what. And then there it was!


I screamed in the car and everyone was like what and I was like loook! I'm pretty sure I screamed again. It was soooooooo cute! He spelled it out in purple duct tape and sticky notes! And he was sitting there in his sunglasses looking so cute. I ran out of the car and was like IT'S SOO CUTE! He was all upset because he ran out of tape and wasn't able to spell it out all the way but I thought that made it even cuter! I got so excited from the first letters alone he didn't need to spell out the rest. It was a Kylee thing! I get so excited sometimes I don't finish sentences. The sticky notes said cute little things on them too. :) I yelled at Brinley and Tanner to get outta the way so I could get a picture and they were like I'm not done reading! Hahaha. 









Cutie!

It was really windy out so we took the sticky notes down. They're going in my book of cute things from Sammy. Yep, I have a whole book. :) He's good at writing letters just saying. It was so cute :) Such a cute surprise! And to top it off I was even wearing the heels I'd gotten for prom and I was all worried that I'd be taller than the bestby which is something that would bug me because I hate being taller than people, but guess what! I'm not taller in them! I feel so very girly in heels, and I love these because they don't hurt my feet at all and are super cute. Definitely going to be wearing them a lot!

 My dad got home from church after we did and I was like Dad! Guess what! I got a date to prom! And he was like really I had no idea who would ask you! I think it's so cute that even though we've been dating for over a year the bestby still takes the time to come up with cute ways to ask me to things :) 

Yep, this girl has a date. I love wearing tutus. Just a side note.

Oh, and look how cute his stink eye is! He has talented eyebrows.

Racism, stereotypes, and plain ole judging

Being in a class dedicated to the idea of migration has really kept the idea of racism on the brain. In elementary school, the idea of racism was so defined to me, thinking people are better than others based solely on the color of their skin. It wasn't until middle school after reading many books that I realized racism wasn't jut as issue of black versus white, rather it applies to all cultures. In high school I was actually shocked to here racist statements from people I loved. All the sudden this issue became personal somewhat. (My favorite statement was from a little girl who said, it should be illegal for Mexicans to have babies. I guess I can't have kids then.)  But it wasn't until last week when we did an activity in my public health class that I realized that I myself was being racist as well. Now, this is something I am not proud of. I'm very embarrassed actually and that activity was humbling. Why am I writing about this? Because, it's som...

Toxic Masculinity

It seems like forever ago that they released that Gilette ad about toxic masculinity. I watched as people I'd grown up with freaked out about it, saying that it said that men need to be like women, and that it condemned masculinity altogether, along with other things. I crafted post after post to write on my social media, but in the end didn't bother writing anything. I didn't feel like arguing with people. But I had to share my thoughts somewhere, so here they are.  To me, toxic masculinity is exactly what it says-- ideals of masculinity that are toxic. It's telling your son that he needs to suck it up and not cry. That he can get away with more than girls because 'boys will be boys.' The idea that he can't read or watch certain media because it's "for girls." At the same time, girls are asked to watch things that are "for boys" all of the time. It's the idea that men need to repress their feelings. That they can't be sc...

Little Bit o Writing Monday

The beginning of my short story for class.  When Dora's son tugged on her pants leg, the last thing she expected was to see him holding a tooth. A tooth that clearly did not belong to him. She was no dentist, but she was smart enough to know the colossal thing couldn't have come from Mark's mouth. “Mark, where did you find that?” Dora scolded. “In the backyard.” “Show me where,” Dora commanded. Excited, Mark ran out to the backyard, Dora following on his heels. He led her over to the back of the yard, to the particular corner that couldn't be seen from the kitchen window. There, her other two children were gathered around a hole in the ground. Hole was an understatement though, they'd obviously been working on this, pit, for quite sometime. If there had been no tooth, Dora would have sat the kids down and explained how digging holes this deep was dangerous because of all the water, electric, and who knows what else lines were under the ...
