Current Events In One Sentence: Ted Cruz, Narendra Modi, Amtrak, and Donald Trump!?

Hey guys! What's up? So, I saw this post on Kate the (Almost) Great's blog. It's called Current Events in One Sentence. Basically, you have to react to current events in one sentence. That sounded really cool, so I decided to try it out! Let me know what you guys think and if you want me to do more of these posts! Shoutout to Kate for this brilliant idea! I'll link her blog below for you to check out. :)

Cruz goes for delegate sweep in North Dakota: Good for you, Ted Cruz!

Amtrak Train Crash In Chester, Delaware County: That's sad to hear.

Trump refuses to condemn manager over alleged assault: Typical Donald Trump.

San Mateo County Resident Tested Positive for Zika Virus: That's really sad. :( I hope the person gets better soon.

PM Narendra Modi Gifts Saudi King Gold Replica of Kerala Mosque: I wonder how the Saudi King feels getting a gold replica.

Azerbaijan declares unilateral ceasefire amid Nagorno-Karabakh violence: That's good.

Brussels Airport Reopens Following Deadly Terrorist Attacks: I hope another attack doesn't happen anywhere after this. (knocks on wood)

About 40 bodies reportedly found in mass grave in Palmyra: Oh my, that's unfortunate. :(

World Autism Day gets attention at the Venetian: That's really cool!

Connecticut Urges Parents to Fight Childhood Obesity: You go, Connecticut! :)

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned! :)

My Favorite Emojis?!

Hey guys! What's up? :) So, for today's post, we're going to talk about emojis! Yep, emojis! Like, the cute little poo emoji, or the heart emoji, or the smiling emoji! :) Everyone has their favorite emojis, and today I'm going to share what my favorite emojis are! :)

Priya's Favorite Emojis:

1. Sassy Girl Emoji

Some people might view this as an information desk lady, but to me, it looks like a sassy girl. This is one of my favorite emojis, because it reminds me of my personality as I'm a very sassy person. But, also, I love the attitude this girl shows. She's just like, "Just kidding!" It's really funny. :)

2. Shaved Ice Emoji

I loved the shaved ice emoji for a few reasons. First of all, from afar, the shaved ice emoji looks really good! It makes me crave for shaved ice! :) Second, the shaved ice emoji reminds me of my childhood. When I look at this emoji, I remember enjoying shaved ice with my family when I was a kid. Ah, those were the days... OMG, I sounded so old when I wrote that. :) Lastly, I love the pink syrup on top of the ice in the emoji. It's like a magenta-ish type of color. The syrup looks delicious and the color is my favorite shade of pink. :)

3. Poop Emoji

Well, who doesn't love the poop emoji? He looks so cute and adorable! OMG, the cuteness is unbearable! :)

4. Watermelon Emoji

I love the watermelon emoji! It looks sooo good, and I love eating watermelons! In fact, they're one of my favorite fruits. :)

5. Candy Emoji

I love the candy emoji for a couple of reasons. First of all, I love candy! I could eat candy any day, even though it's bad for me and my teeth. I swear, if candy was a real person, I would marry it! I love it that much! :) Also, I love the green and purple colors in the candy emoji and how it blends together. It looks really cool! :)

I hope you guys enjoyed reading what my favorite emojis! What are your favorite emojis? Let me know in the comments below! :)

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned! :)

Book Tag

Hey guys! What's up? :) Sorry I haven't posted anything in so long! I was really busy, but I am super excited to be back and can't wait to share my thoughts and ideas with you guys! :) For today's post, I'm going to do the Book Tag! Let's get started! :)

Question #1: Do you have a certain place at home for reading? No.
Question #2: Bookmark or a random piece of paper? Either. It doesn't really matter to me. I take whatever is around me that I can use.
Question #3: Can you stop reading anytime you want or do you have to stop at a certain page, chapter, part, etc.? I have to stop when I finish a page.

Question #4: Do you eat or drink while reading? Yes, when I'm reading comic books or books that I've read before. When I'm reading something new, I can't eat or drink because it distracts me.
Question #5: Can you read while listening to music/watching TV? No.
Question #6: One book at a time, or several at once? One book at a time.
Question #7: Reading at home or everywhere? I can read anywhere.
Question #8: Reading out loud or silently in your head? I read silently in my head.
Question #9: Do you read ahead or skip pages? Unfortunately, I read ahead. I really hate it when I do, and I'm trying to break the habit, but it's hard.
Question #10: Breaking the spine or keeping it new? Either. It doesn't really matter.
Question #11: Do you write in books? No, I don't.

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned! :)

What Defined 2015 For Me

Hey guys! I'm sorry that I haven't been blogging for a while. I was on a vacation in San Diego, and I was originally supposed to return home on December 30th. Unfortunately, my flight home got cancelled so I had to stay an extra night. But, I got back home just in time for New Years' Eve, and today, I'm going to share what defined 2015 for me! :)

1. I attended We Day in February 2015. I saw many incredible people there, including Ezra Frech, Kid President, Colbie Caillat, Cody Simpson, G.R.L., and others.

2. I became an archer (I started taking archery) in February 2015. I have learned a lot about archery in these past 10 months, and I hope to continue to learn more.

3. I received a digital camera in March 2015 for my birthday, and have cultivated my passion for photography.

4. I found a new group of friends in April 2015, which means a lot to me because they're everything that I ever wanted in a friend. Growing up, I struggled to make friends because people thought I was vain and shallow. My new friends are nice, supportive, caring, and lots of fun to be with. I love them so much and can't thank them enough for always being there for me.
 
5. Last but not least, I became a stronger person. During 2015, I went through hardships (as does everyone), and observed some sad events, which I would rather not mention. Everything that I saw and went through have helped me become stronger and I know that without them, I wouldn't be the person I am today.

2015 was a great year, and I am looking forward to 2016 with great anticipation and excitement! Here's to a great year! :)

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned! :)
