PIZZA and WHAT!

Pizza and dogs are different, but to understand their similarities you have to start your imagination. RRRRRRRRRNNNNNNN! That's great! So let's go.

Have you ever thought of "toppings"? Well you can put clothes on dogs to make them look better. You can put toppings on dogs to make them taste better. Have you thought of that?

What about a "container"? Fences and a leash and collar contain a dog like a box contains pizza. Can't contain this imagination now can you? Now for some differences.

You have to cook pizza but if you cook a dog it's animal cruelty!!!!! Also I really don't feed my pizza but you have to feed dogs. Well I think that this compare and contrast is the 1st of it's kind. Thanks for reading!

The iPad and the Samsung Gloss

The iPad 3G and the Samsung Gloss have a lot in common. But they have differences to. There is the obvious and the surprising similarities and differences.

They both can be counted on the go. You can save important photos. One of the worst things is you will have to pay for Them monthly. When typing you will have a full key board. they are able to play your favorite music on it.

The iPad 3G has Internet. You'll be able to check all of your favorite websites. It's a touch screen. There are games you will able to buy at the app store. It is a 10 inch screen so it's big. You can watch any videos and other things on it. Last but not least it was made by Apple.

The Samsung Gloss is a phone. You will be able to take photos. It slips into your pocket. It'll flip up. It is hand size so it will your hand. You will be connected to your friends by texting and calling people.

Those are some of the similarities and differences. Now I could tell more but that would be boring. By.

Shocking Storage

Have you ever decided to revamp your storage area? I'm here to help you decide between shelves & cupboards. Which would be best for you?

Something to think about when you buy your units are that they are both storage units. They will both have easy access because they declutter your space. When you want a place to store your stuff they'll both be their. Their are also different types of each. You could buy some nice looking wood ones or heavy-duty metal. You can also buy different colors, shades, & finishes of both.

If you decide to have shelves you're being ECO-friendly. Shelves take less wood or metal to put together because you don't need doors over everything. You can also pick from freestanding shelves hanging on the wall, a bookshelf that makes you look sophisticated or built in shelves that make them look more naturally flowing in your space. They will also be open for everyone to see so you might want to buy baskets or an organizer to keep your shelves looking nice.

If you had cupboards they would have to be built into the wall or attached some how so they don't tip over. They're nice though because you can just close a door & erase the mess inside from your head. If your more of a secretive person it's nice to have cupboards to lock away all your secrets. They also have millions of different types of finishes & extra patterns to add characteristics. You can pick-out any types of handles or knobs that you could think of!

Now that I've shared with you the ups & downs of shelves & cupboards you can make your own decision of your favorite. Just remember, "Clearing clutter clears your mind."

Live Laugh Love

Our lives are to short,
To waste it with some sadness,
So with every step you take,
Spread some gladness.

When we're all together

We all have fear,
we all have tears.

We all have sadness ,
and want to take away the badness .

We all have love
something the whole world thinks of.

We're the same in some ways,
we have good and bad days .

But when we're all together,
we're stronger in any weather.

Miles, Miles, Miles, and Miles to Go!

Oh how I hate running running the mile, sometimes it takes my brain awhile. To file. How stuiped the mile is. I mean who cares how long it takes us to run around a track, over and over, and over, and over again? When I run the mile it feels like it will never end! The mile dosent feel like 1 mile it feels like many miles long. It is so much tortcher, and pain, and so wrong! And I hate the mile, it dissolves my smile:)
