Awesome
One of my favorite blogs is 1000 Awesome Things where the author talks about little, awesome things in life. I recently read the book and loved it and have started to try to notice the awesome things that happen to me each day.
An 8th grade teacher was inspired by this blog and had her class start their own - 30 Awesome Things. The 12th awesome thing was written by class member Monica and it just made my day!
"Isn’t it weird how people like the smallest things? Have you noticed that the smallest things can be the most interesting? One of my favorite colors is the color orange. It is the best color in the world. Orange is so magnificent and it stands out from the rest of the colors. Why? Not only is orange a color but the only color that is also a fruit. There is no fruit called yellow or red. Orange is a bright color that just seeing it puts you in a good mood.
"The color orange may be only a color, but to some people it is the BEST. With the color orange, you can do so many things. For example, you can color with it, you can paint with it, and you can even get matching things with it. It is just so awesome. It is a hue that just brightens up a picture, a painting, clothes, anything really. All the other colors are bland but orange is in you face. It's bold and bright, and the perfect mixture. Could you really ask for a better color?
"Imagine if there was no such thing as the color orange. The world will not be as nice as it looks now without the orange-ish colors. How bad would it sound if orange was taken out of colors? You will not be able to describe the nice looking color. Nature would not be beautiful without the good-looking orange because it would not be as bright without orange. The rainbow would have an empty space waiting for it to be filled by some color as beautiful as “orange”. Like many people say, “orange” is the best color around.
"ORANGE IS AWESOME!
I thought I should make a list of 10 awesome things to pay this message forward...

8. Boxes of Chocolate.
9. Making giant cupcakes.

And about Orange, there are no words that rhyme with it. I think that's pretty cool, certainly makes it more unique.
Running in the warm rain is my favorite.
& I've never made giant cupcakes but I'm sure I'd love to eat them! Mm Mm Mmmmm!
Happy Weekend!
