Color me up!

So this isn't a true Ashlei blog since my cute friend first posted about her color. I got so excited about it and thus, had to try it for myself. (Thanks Alyssa)!

I was pleasantly surprised.

And my color is. . .


LETTUCE GREEN






I always knew green was my favorite color!

Here's what it says

"You have strong emotions but don't always express what you are feeling. You have a way with words and are mentally agile. Partnerships are important to you and a lot of transformation occurs due to your close personal relationships. Writing is one of the ways for you to process your feelings and channel your energy. Your personal color helps increase your stamina. Wearing, meditating or surrounding yourself with lettuce green lets you know when to rest and when to act."

Okay, maybe I don't agree with some. . .most of this, but I do like the color so I'll take it!

NO WONDER






Ever wonder why the sky is blue and grass is green. . .












Ever wonder how many grains of sand are under your feet. . .









Every wonder why it's so easy to be afraid of little spiders when they are tiny in comparison to us. . .






Ever wonder how the week goes by so slowly but the weekend so fast. . .








Ever wonder how there's millions of car accidents in the U.S., but you never see an accident in a foreign country where the drivers are beyond crazy. . .





Ever wonder how it's so easy to waste hours of time doing nothing but so difficult to focus and study for just one hour. . .



















Ever wonder why sand scratches off toenail polish. . .









Ever wonder why sugar and fat taste so good yet fiber and antioxidants are an acquired taste. . .








Ever wonder why girls are always searching for the perfect fairytale love story. . .



Answer. . .







WALT DISNEY


Some friends and I were watching Beauty and the Beast a few days ago. Of course, I fell in love, again, with the idea of an enchanted castle. Walt Disney is full of the happily ever afters containing magic carpets, spindles, glass slippers, and of course the handsome Prince! Not to say it is bad, but it of course gives ladies the false pretense that prince charming will ride in on his horse and you will fall in love.






Falling in love is great, but what happened to staying in love? I give props to those who stay in love for years and years.








I think that people like my grandparents are who I should be gaining love stories from. They've been married 67 years (give or take a year) and are still crazy for each other. The cutest couple you'll ever meet!






This of course won't discourage me from watching Disney or encouraging girl-like qualities with princess parties and dress-up with little girls I meet.




Shh, don't tell anyone. I may even join in on the dress-up.
