i'm writing a book.

i've been working on writing a book lately.
and i must really be getting somewhere
because last night i got no sleep due to the fact
that the characters in my book, were having non-stop
conversations in my head all night.
therefore, i am tired.

new awesomeness.

i have a new awesome follower!
her name is jacque and her blog address is:
you should check her out! she's so cheerful.
i <3 her blog. 
oh and she's doing a giveaway!
wanna see what she's giving away? go here. hurry. quick!

life is a ball when you're having fun,


{want your blog to be mentioned on my blog?! e-mail me at sparrow.child at hotmail dot com - i'll check out your blog, and then it will be featured! share my blog with everyone you know as a return favor! - wow i just said "blog" a lot...}

lets start a new traditions!

i'm just {bubbling} over with traditions lately!
so i recently started my daily/weekly smiles,
and now, i feel a weekly quote is in order as well.
{i love quotes.}
they always seem to give me that much needed burst of
"i can do this", that i usually need.
so. wednesday will be {"words of wisdom wednesday"}.
oh what fun!
hope you enjoy!

i'm not irish, but kiss me anyway,

how do i follow you?

i get a lot of readers,
but not a lot of followers.
and peeps have been asking:
"how do i follow you?"
luckily, i can give you a "following for dummies" course.
see off to your left, the "lets talk about me" section?
scroll down until you see the "people who aren't afraid to be followers" section.
then, click the "follow" icon. (difficult. i know.)
if you have a blogger account you can follow me that way,
if not you can follow anonymously etc.
following allows you to not have to remember my url everytime you want to visit!
mmmmkay?

following the leader,


{still not following how to follow? e-mail me at sparrow.child at hotmail dot com and we'll talk.}

major dilemma guys.

so. i'm a natural blonde (we're talking hair color here).
but since i attended hairschool i have been pretty much every color imaginable.
red, black, brown, purple, even a little green.
and now, its time to do my hair again.
but i can't decide what to do!
here are some colors i absolutely ja'dore:
{blonde(ish)}


{red}


{light brown}

what're my faves in each catergory?
blonde: giselle bundchen (middle one)
red: ashlee simpson-wentz (first one)
brown: tie for first on all.
what do you think?

i could be brown,
i could be blue,
i could be violet sky,


{want to know where i got the pics? click on the peep and the link will take you there. nicole richie, giselle bundchenblake lively, ashlee simpson-wentz, julianne moore, lindsay lohanjennifer love hewitt, mandy moore, eva mendes in other words, i'm not cool enough to take pics of celebs. oh well. i'm feelin' pretty okay about that.}

fun fact friday!
{woot. woot.}
this week, i'd like to share:

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!
{oh. my gosh.}
i absolutely believe that chocolate chip cookies
(gooey ones right out of the oven)
make the world a better place.
while you're eating them, just for that {small moment} in time,
everything is okay in the world and nothing matters but the intense deliciousness going on in your mouth.
so. fun fact: i {ja dore} chocolate chip cookies.
(probably at unhealthy levels actually.)

standing outside with my mouth open wide,


{got the pic here ya'll. after i searched here ya'll.}

movie chain. oh yeah.

(get ready for a big, yet thourghly entertaining, list!)
sissykins and i have decided to do a movie chain.
it all started when we watched the family stone last night
and started talking about how many people
(that are well known) are in that movie.
then we started talking about other movies each actor/actress was in.
that's when we came up with the idea of a movie chain.
so here, for the next 15 nights is what we're watching
(and how it ties into the chain).
started with:
family stone we chose luke wilson out of that
and from here on out is:
 legally blonde w/ luke wilson & reese witherspoon
just like heaven w/ reese witherspoon & mark ruffalo
13 going on 30 w/ mark ruffalo & judy greer
27 dresses w/ judy greer & james marsden
hairspray w/ james marsden & queen latifah
chicago (one of my all time FAVORITE movies!) w/ queen latifah & catherine zeta jones
the terminal w/ catherine zeta jones & zoe saldana
center stage w/ zoe saldana & peter gallagher
while you were sleeping w/ peter gallagher & glynis johns
mary poppins w/ glynis johns & julie andrews
the princess diaries w/ julie andrews & anne hathaway
the devil wears prada w/ anne hathaway & emily blunt
dan in real life w/ emily blunt & allison pill
confessions of a teenage drama queen w/ allison pill & lindsay lohan
mean girls w/ lindsay lohan & rachel mcadams who is also in the family stone,
which is the movie we started with!
ah. what fun.
if you did a movie chain, what would you watch
and how would you link your movies???


better pop some pop corn!

the cullen family and my family.


since moving here a year and a half ago, everywhere my family and i have gone,
people stare at us like we're the cullens.
{no seriously.}
even tonight, at pack meeting, there was a semi circle of chairs,
and then there was {our} row of chairs. 
and everyone {stared}. 
guess we're just so super beautiful and awesome that people can't look away. :)
(it gets even creepier when brothey looks quite similar to edward cullen.
and kids at his school think he is a vampire.)

the cold ones,


{the pic of the gorgeous vamps that you see above was found here. but i woldn't have found it without searching here first.}

meet naomi/taza. and my new tradition.



so i've started reading this {awesome} blog recently, written by someone called naomi/taza.
she's just a normal girl like me,
but her posts inspire me to be more {positive}, {creative}, and {grateful}.
(naomi/taza if your reading this, hi! you inspire me so much everyday! keep being just who you are!)
i love being inspired.
and she shares the same faith as i do, which is also really cool.
so you should check her out. you can find her here.
i {encourage} you to take a look, because really, she rocks. :)
(she does awesome give aways too!)
"what brought this suggestion on?" you might ask.
well, i've been having a downer few weeks lately (minus my totally awesome thanksgiving), and i've really needed a {dang} good pick me up.
see, naomi/taza does this awesome thing called happy lists
and so, today (out of inspiration via naomi/taza), i've decided to start something like that (in my next post). i'm calling it {"daily/weekly smiles"} because so many times, its the simple things in life, that really make me smile and help me get through. from here on out, every now and then i'll be sharing what simple thing helped me out on any particular day.
i hope you'll join with me in recognizing the {simple} things in your life.
hugs and kisses all. you rock my world.


why are there so many songs about rainbows,


{the great pic you see above is by shana rae. i found her on flickr and all her images make me smile and feel a little bit warmer on the inside. thanks shana rae!}

fun fact friday #3.

are you so excited for this weeks fun fact friday?
i have thought about it pretty much all week,
and i've decided to share (in celebration of the rapidly approaching christmas season):
ever since i was little, i have been able to figure out what i'm getting for christmas. 

all it takes is for me to simply shake a box, or for someone to say "i know what i'm getting you" and i can usually determine what it is.  
i've only been surprised once so far. - it was christmas 2007 and my parents totally and 100% surprised me with a blackberry phone.
it was the greatest.

bring us some figgy pudding,


{i'm promoting eco friendly wrapping with the photo above! lets all save paper. comics are way cooler than christmas paper anyway! - this photo was found on flickr and was posted by an awesome person known as eco_monster.}
