Noun of the Week!

I've decided to start a new series on my blog. Noun of the week is just something I agree with, am lusting over, in love with, etc. Just a my person, place, or thing of the week!

Okay, so, this video is so spot on. Respect your teachers because you will never meet any other individual who would dedicate so much of their time for your education. Stop taking them for granted!
Teachers rule, bring them coffee and muffins, and your homework on time.

Things I Learned in High School Part Uno

This summer I feel as if I have grown up more than I have anticipated. I have finally figured out what I want to do, where I want to be, and who I aspire to be. This summer I found where I could see myself in 5 year, I found where I would like to start the beginning of my adult journey. This summer I relived to myself what makes me happy, who makes me happy, and what hobbies make me enjoy life to the fullest. This summer I learned I have to focus on myself as well, always rushing to someones recuse led me away from my own internal issues I needed to handle. This summer, I did just that.

I came back from a two week road trip ready to face the wonders of this world. I came back ready to finish my senior year stronger than ever. That got me thinking of all the great things high school has done for me, taught me, let me experience, etc. There is not enough adjectives in the English language to express my excitement I have to finish my senior year with a bang, and all the memories and new people I will meet along the way.

So here's a list of the things I have learned to love about high school, and all the things I learned in general:


  • Make friends with the class above you, they're cool and have amazing advice when it comes to intense college applications 
  • I gained a good 10 pounds just by all the coffee I drink 
  • I lost about half my paycheck by all the coffee I drink 
  • Humanities was the best decision I made, it kick my butt and I am grateful 
  • Do the reading 
  • Indie/acoustic music isn't the only "good music"out there 
  • Hip-Hop freaking bring the lyrical ruckus
  • Say thank you to all our teachers 
  • Speech and Debate changed my perception on people and the world 
  • DIs are the worst 
  • Local shops are so much better than any franchise
  • Toadally Joe Cafe has the best coffee my taste buds have ever had the pleasure of tasting
  • Drink it all day every day, stop with the nonsense Starbucks and Dutch Brothers 
  • Huckleberry Finn would have been a great book if I didn't have to analyze every page I read 
  • To Kill a Mockingbird is by far my favorite book 
  • I thank freshman english for that piece of greatness 
  • Friendships do not last forever
  • That's because a lot of people in high school suck 
  • Oly Pageant is the greatest thing I have the honor participating in
  • Thank you for having faith in my Elisa and Justin 
  • I'm disappointed in myself for being so judgmental when it came to new things 
  • All you Sprague students; sometime in your high school career take a class with either McElliott or Nickel!!!! 
  • If you rock this world, you will have them both as teachers 
  • Leadership isn't that bad, stop judging it so harshly 
  • High school parties suck 
  • Don't be so closed minded to religion 
  • Go to different religious services 
  • Create something beautiful every once and a while 
  • Stop procrastinating 
  • Learning the best thing in the world 
  • High School rules in so many aspects 
  • Enjoy it

I have glitter in my soul, Oly Pageant 2014

Life is good, life is great. I love helping people, it has always been one of my favorite things. When I was chosen to be apart of Oly Pageant this year, I was gleeful when I realized I have the whole year to raise money for Doernbecher Children's Hospital. Brainstorming ideas on how to raise money got kind of tough at times, but I have successfully brainstormed a great idea!

I have been obsessed with making glitter banners this summer, and what no better way than to sell them for the cause I am advocating for? I put a lot of hard work into the glitter banners and make them with a lot of love, no better way to make a product. Just like the book, "Secret Life of Bees" you have to give the bees love.

Anyways, the glitter banners would cost 5-10 dollars, depending on what color of glitter you would like! I have hot pink, silver, and gold. If you chose one of those colors, the banner would only be $5, dollars, but if you want a special color that I do not have, it'll cost $10 to compensate for the glitter. I can put whatever your heart desires on the banner, or you can leave it up to me and I can make something up for you.

My goal is to raise $6,000 for Doernbecher, and I can't get there without the support of all of you!

Contact me at saigeisthebomb.com@gmail.com if you don't know me over Facebook or my number! We can discus payment and what you would like! (Please want one, you are doing a good thing)

Thank you everyone! Have a great day :)

Here are some of the banners I have made!
