Best Quote EVER!!

Okay so I will probably be the only person in the world who will think that this quote is amazing, but that is okay. For that reason I have to give a little background information about myself and about the show that this quote came from.

First me. I love my name. I think that it sounds beautiful and elegant. The only thing that I hate about my name is that it seems that no one one can read or say my name right the first time.Ever since I was a little, people have messed up my name. I have been called the wrong name more than I can remember and have had it spelled wrong only slightly less. Justin is usually what I get mistaken for.

Second the show. It is called the Wizards of Waverly place. It is about a family of wizards. In this particular episode Justin and Alex both win a contest to write and illustrate a comic book. At the end of the episode they are reading the review of their comic book.

Now here is the quote

"The Russo sisters, Alex and Justine, have taken over the reigns with flair."

Do you see why I find that completely awesome? After 21 years of being called Justin when my name is Justine, its nice to see someone named Justin mistaken for a Justine!

Collections

Each person in my family collects things, with the exception of one person. Bet you can't guess who. Yep me. My Dad collects everything. We say that he collects collections. He collects hotwheel cars, Disney pins, airplanes, watches, comic books, and legos etc etc. That is only a small list of things that he collects. My Mom collects tea cups. Michal collects dolls, and Disney pins. Nathaniel collects baseball caps and Disney pins. Aly collects stuffed animal or as she calls them her pets. My Mom says that I collect bobby pins, but I don't think that really counts.

The fact that I don't collect anything kind of frustrates my Dad because when he goes on work trips he doesn't know what to get me. He always has at least a start with everyone else because of what they collect. Well I figured out something that I collect but I don't think that it is going to help very much. I collect hobbies. See I was right it isn't going to help him very much.

Oops

I am a horrible speller. I always have been.  When I was in Elementary school I hated taking the weekly spelling tests. I had to study my spelling words everyday. I wasn't one of the kids who could just figure out how to spell words by sounding it out in my head. I had to look it (still do) or ask someone else how to spell it. In jr. my first drafts would always come back covered in red marks of things that I needed to fix, usually because I didn't like to take the time to read through my drafts before I turned them in.

So why do I tell you this? The answer is simple... When my little sister read my last blog post she found at least three grammar and spelling errors. She probably found more but didn't tell me because she could tell that I was getting annoyed. I went back and fixed the ones that I could find but I probably didn't get them all. There are probably a few in this post as well (kind of ironic huh?)

So this post is mostly to inform you that most of my posts will have grammar or spelling errors. Will I try to catch them? Yes. Will I be successful at trying to catch them? Probably not.
