"When you're gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you..."

Today my brother left and went on a trip to Mexico to see his girlfriend. I'm happy for him and I know he'll have tons of fun, but we're going to miss him a lot. It just makes me think that we are growing up fast (or at least he is), even though he is only 19. The fact that he will not be spending Christmas and New Year with us is kind of a sign of it. But anyways, him leaving reminded me of one of my favorite songs: "When You're Gone" by Avril Lavigne.



I think at this time he is still in the bus, but I hope that he is doing good. :]

Watermelon Nights Will Be Here! So Sing Along!!

There was this weird plant growing on the side of my house. My dad thought it was a weed, but my mom and I thought it was cute because it was climbing on the wall and holding itself with these tiny cute-plant-like strands. So today my mom went out to look at the plant, and she found something... Guess what?! A watermelon!! ...well, actually there are three watermelons. They are small, but we are hoping for them to grow. My mom is a plant freak, she'll probably spend a ton of time watering and grooming the watermelon plant now...

And I found this video on YouTube and I thought it was so cute. So enjoy!
