Okay, story time.
When I was 16 my dad bought me a car. It was cute. It was red. It was sporty… and it was a stick. I was a horrible driver to begin with, and that coupled with my ridiculous impatience made driving it a complete nightmare. I dreaded it! Honest to God, I cried when it would stall on me, and I pretty much swore off manual cars altogether when I killed the engine and full on STOPPED in the middle of one of the busiest intersections in town. WHILE TRAFFIC WAS COMING TOWARD ME. Needless to say, we swapped it out for an automatic. (Drama queen.)
I’ve always felt completely stupid about giving up on something so simple and that so many other people could do, so I added this to my 101 Things list. I haven’t driven one since that little red car, but today I can proudly cross it of that list.
Okayokayokay, so I drove Justin’s car around the block to my parents’ house to do a load of laundry. Aaaand, I may have stalled it no less than 10 times before making it out of our apartment complex’s parking lot. But I totally realized I hadn’t released the E-brake before I could do any major damage, so… BAM. I win.

This weekend, Justin and I took a day trip to Shaver Lake to visit Alyssa and her man Chris at their family’s awesome cabin. We had a blast, seriously… these two are hilarious.
While out on a walk, we stumbled upon a waterfall. It’s no Niagara Falls, but there was no way I was going to pass up the opportunity to stand at the top and take a picture. Finally, I’m able to cross this one off my list!
I realize this picture makes it look a whole 2 feet tall, but I promise it wasn’t that lame. See the terrified look on my face? Yeah.

I’d like to send out a huge thank you and a big bear hug to Yanique from Too Cute Magazine for interviewing me on her fabulous blog! This girl has amazing style and after talking with her, I think I found a new internet BFF. She’s a total peach.
Pop on over and see for yourself. :)
Au Revoir, #14. Booyah.

It is very typical of me to post unflattering photos of others if I look decent. It’s wrong, I know.
Sorry Maddie Jo, but this counts as #28 on my list.
