i wish there was a bright side to this post

ok sorry for the 3rd post this night but it's urgent. ok so i'm moving at the end of november and i'll still go to stapley but i might go to red mountain for high school. i literally started crying when my mom told me but it could be true. i really really don't want to go red mountain! i have so many bestfriends i don't want to lose!!! i really hope i go to mountain view but there is a possibility i might go to red mountain. i have to convince my mom to let me stay. who thought moving could be so hard?

just dance 4

on friday night i went to bekah's and we played just dance 4! soo fun!


super saturday

today was pretty super. from 9am till 1:30pm i went shopping with my grandma and aunt. in the afternoon we set up for the annual anderson family halloween dinner. at around 5pm my adorable cousins came over for the dinner. and thats about it.

//i seriously think i live in a disney movie sometimes.

super saturday

well this saturday wasn't very "super". all i did was go to my little brother's football game and then watched TV and played on the computer. all day. so as you can see, i ended my fall break very productively. but i did  manage to start on odette and pocahontas's weddings so thats good news. if you have no idea what i'm talking about, check my pinterest.

hugs!

hotel translyvania


today i saw hotel transylvania in 3D and it was great! i didn't think i would like it all that much but it was very cute! i'm kinda excited for all these halloween-y movies. i also saw paranorman awhile ago but didn't really like it.
but anyway, really enjoyed hotel translyvania.

and...i am very happy for myself because i found out how put social media icons up! {trust me, major discovery}

hey-hey samantha's story readers!  my name is sarah and my blog is the life of a redhead.  i love one direction and taylor swift.  harry potter and hunger games.  spiderman and a bunch of movies.  nerd glasses and being awkie.  never capitalizing things and being crasy {and yes, i meant to spell that with an 's'}.  and a bunch more.  i also have a few other blogs:





What is your favorite color, animal, and song?

well, my favorite colors are definitely turquoise and coral.  they are just adorbs.  my favorite animal has always been a white tiger.  i don't know why, and i don't know why it's not just tigers in general.  i guess white ones just look... cooler?  haha.  oh well.  and last, my favorite song.  oh boy.  there's a few.  right now, i'm mostly obsessed with t. swift's new singles.  especially "begin again" and "red".  and then also, i really love "you and i" by ingrid michaelson and all of these songs.  

What was {or who} your blog inspiration?

ok, my blog inspiration.  well, pretty much my 2, like, bff's had a blog together and i wanted to join in the fun!  and now, uh, i'm basically obsessed.  i swear i'm going to find a way to make blogging my occupation.  see more here.

What is your favorite hobby?

blogging.  period.  but ok, i'll tell you more.  umm...  photography, listening to music {does that count as a hobby?}, tweeting, and, um, going on pinterest.  yeah.  so basically, my life relies on digitalness and the internet.  weird.  haha.

What are 5 fun facts about yourself?

ooohh...  here we go:

// i got to say "play ball" at a diamondbacks game when i was like, 9.
// i have a bit of an obsession with politics and debates.  and maybe just social studies in general?
// i kind of want to make my eyesight horrible so i can wear nerd glasses for real.
// i can be pretty awkie sometimes.  just sometimes.  lol no.  always.
// i recently just posted 100 facts about myself on my blog celebrating my 100th post.

What are your top five blogs?

well, i love all of my friends blogs {including this one :D }, but i'm going to stray from them because most of them have been named in previous guest posts.  

this is going to be really hard, i have like a million more favorite blogs than five.

// golden.

thanks so much for letting me guest post sami g!

Black heart (cards), sarah
hugs!
