A day in the life

Oh yes!!! The 4th of July like my favorite holiday ever!  So, in normal years we would usually through a huge party with our neighbors that moves to multiple houses. But since our neighbor went out of town for the 4th we didn't get to do so unfortunately. So instead we went down to our friends house on Liberty Bay for the 3rd of July fire works which turned our to be interesting.   Our friends have a huge dock that extends into the water quite far which I must add is a awesome place to watch the fire works :). Unfortunately down town there was a shooting and the fire works were delayed due to that. I must add that my best friend was down town at the time of the shooting and I was very nervous. But everything turned out to be fine and the fire works were exceptional this year!  [What a lovely sun set!] ' On the actual 4th my dad had to work so it was just me and the rest of the fam bam. We lit of some fire works at our friends house a...

Yes coffee. I LOVE Coffee. I feel like people either love or hate it. So, for me coffee is a tool using caffeine. Today I will be showing you what coffee's I buy/drink. I'm just going to say that I am a 16 year old Tom Boy and I like coffee. Now i'm weird I like to try to eat healthy at every meal. What I do is eat till I am satisfied and not full or dead if you know what I mean. But that's a story for another time.  1. Coffee From Home So, I like occasionally drink a cup of coffee from home just purely for the caffeine. :) 6 oz is all I get (most of the time) and I always add milk and not creamer because creamer has sugar plus more unwanted calories. I would rather Eat that amount of sugar in a different way.  (In no way is this post about calling my self fat. I just choose to eat in this way to be healthy.) 2. Espresso I would say that I am a person of routine. Everyday I have a morning and night routine that is hard to break. If I don'...

I unfortunately have some sad news...  So about a couple days ago my fish Plasma got infected with a incurable virus that was introduced to the rest of my fish tank. The first fish to die were the guppy's, then Plasma and one of the Tetras. Currently as I am writing this my other Tetra is alive but i'm sure not for long... 7/7/19 Update: All of the fish are gone and my tank is empty. ;( [ https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1CATTSD_enUS813&biw=1536&bih=738&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=wHMiXcH7DIqw0wLE4ofACA&q=rip&oq=rip&gs_l=img.3..0i67j0l9.15063.18019..18454...0.0..2.106.837.9j1......0....1..gws-wiz-img.....0..35i39.GSlvCndXuNE#imgrc=uGAHL1YZa6uD_M: ] Note: Everything posted that is either written or a picture is mine.

So, today I just got a new fish for my fish tank. He is a Orange Soward tail tropical fresh water fish. So far he is the biggest fish I have gotten and should grow to about 4 inches. Everyone I would like for you to meet Plasma. Plasma is the sweetest fish of the bunch even though he is the biggest. Every once and a while you will notice the Tetras (Cupcake and Tetra) going at him.  Peace! Note: Everything posted that is either written or a picture is mine.

So about a week ago my mom gave me a 10 gallon fish tank for my 16th birthday. I am so happy she did so I enjoy it so much now that I have it.  So here is the striped down process I completed while setting up my fish tank.  This is my tank with no water yet. This is the my fish tank with no fish in it yet. The fish are in their transport bag. I had to let the water get up to temperature over a night before I could put fish in it.  Originally I got 5 fish, 2 tetras, and 3 guppy's. All males that I know of haha. But unfortunately I had to say good bye to one of my guppy's. I woke up one day to find him on the filter trying to kill him self. Poor little guy. I think the problem was that I got 3 guppy's and not an even number. I also kind of felt like he was getting bullied by the tetras and other guppy's which is sad but to be expected.  These are the fish I have currently. The 2 tetras on the bottom and Reckless and Leaf on top (the 2 g...
