Organizing Your Desk





























Instead of having all of my pencils, pens, tape, stapler, clips, erasers, and so on in all different places, I put them all together in super cute bins ~ And on a piece of scrapbook paper.

Don't Know What to do with Your Time??

Your Clock ~ and killer


Your time is precious, is it not? And you want the very best for yourself... Which means that your place need to be CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN
But your bed is SO SO SO comfortable, isn't it?? OH, it's so warm and cozy ~ you don't even leave it to pee, so why would you leave it to clean? Because once you CLEAN, you can SLEEP WELL, without worry! 







Ready? Ready? Ready ready ready ready ready ready?! Set.... GO!
Here's what I did:
I made a template, but I could put on sticky notes and so on so that I could change what I wrote.
One box is for what I need to get.
Another, things I need to do.
And things to organize
And the very last one a nice witty quote to help me through the day :P











Here's how to make it...

What you'll need...
A large piece of scrapbook paper
4 different colors of index cards (they come in packs)
Sticky Notes or sticky paper (pref. in different colors)
Wall Tape (It is two-sided, and is alright to put on walls ~ will save your life!)
Glue stick or hot glue gun


What to do:

1. Cut the index cards into squares or rectangles (maybe even circles??) according to how much you   want to be able to write on them/ the Sticky Notes that can fit on them.

2. Glue on

3. Find Sticky Notes that match the colors or go well with them, write what you need to... Stick on

AND BAM!!! YOU HAVE YOUR WONDERFUL LITTLE ORGANIZER!

Enjoy your sleep!! <3 <3

Maybe a Change?

Change ~ You know that it can be good (the moment that you spot the very dirty face of our 16th president) and you know that it can be bad. What do you think, though, about this blog being more than JUST writing (but trust me, there is no way that it writing will go AWAY)?
It can be about me, life, the stuff going on, organization (I have been waiting to say that), and crafts! Why not tell me what you think? Email me a gracelinh@gmail.com and I will make sure to see what I can do!

Thanks and ENJOY YOUR BREAK!
Happy be-lated Thanksgiving :P

Mell the 'Mellow

There once was a boy who loved candy. Halloween was his favorite holiday, he asked for chocolate for Christmas, he only liked ‘Eatster’ when he got the good candy, and so on. This young boy loved marshmallows the most, though. He ate and ate them all day long, only to have stomach-ache afterwards. He especially liked the colored mini ones, but to him, it didn’t really matter.
One day, when little 2-year-old Timmy was secretly opening his very own, very first bag of colored mini marshmallows, he was quite astonished to see that there was a huge, perfectly white marshmallow in the middle of the bag, hidden. He was about to bite it when it opened up the cutest eyes and the cutest mouth with only one large tooth in the middle of its perfectly pink top gums. But little Timmy didn’t notice and put the ‘mallow closer to his wide-open mouth (which was also filled with one tooth). “Don’t eat me!” squeaked a voice. Timmy looked around. Maybe he had just imagined that. He put it closer to his mouth. “Don’t eat me!” Timmy was getting scared now. Maybe he should just eat his marshmallow and it would go away... He put the ‘mallow closer to his mouth. “Don’t eat me!” This time, Timmy was only one centimeter from the large marshmallow. He looked down to see the cutest, largest eyes begging him, and the cutest, smallest mouth in the shape of a heart.
“Why shouldn’t I eat you?”
“I can make you have all the candy you want!” exclaimed the marshmallow, trying to save its life.
“But Mommy and Daddy don’t want me to eat too much...”
“Pashaw! They won’t care!”
“I don’t know... What else can you do?”
“What else do you NEED?”
“I want a best friend, but I don’t know if you can give me that...”
“I can!”
“Then we are best friends!!!”
Little Timmy was overcome with joy! He had found a giant 5” marshmallow who wanted to be his friend! Wow!

For years and years, Timmy and his Mell were best friends, but then a problem came. Timmy was in school now and he always got into arguments, and he wanted Mell to back him up. Sadly, Mell was a diplomat and could see both sides of the argument and couldn’t say which one he felt like going on. No matter how hard Mell tried, he just couldn’t pick a side when Timmy had gotten into a fight with his very-best-ish-almost-enemy-sometimes-friend, Figg (or Figglehornam when he is in trouble). Timmy said, “If you aren’t going to help me, then you are almost not a friend! You are going to stay in the dresser for a while, and I will only play with you when I am so completely sad!”
Mell thought that Timmy was kidding, but to his/her surprise, Timmy threw Mell into his top dresser drawer, where she was forgotten.
More years passed, and Mell was taken out of her small prison less and less. Once a week. Once a month. 7 times a year. 4 times a year. Once a year. Never.
Timmy was now 10. When he was going through his old things, he came upon Mell and instantly remembered her. “Hi, Mell!”
“Hi yourself.”
“What’s wrong??? I know you are mad, but why don’t you just calm down and say ‘hi’ to me??”
“Ugh! Pashaw! Go! Leave! Eat me for crying out loud!”
“Well... I don’t want to do that to you, Mell. You have helped me through so much... What else do you want me to do?”
“Well, you can make that wish that I told you to do when we first met.”
“?”
“Ugh, *you are so stupid and forgetful* the one about you wanting (and getting) the candy that your small, selfish little heart desires.”
“Then I wish that! Anything to help my Mell!”
“Say it.”
“Say what?”
“*Omigosh you are so dumb* Say that you wish for all of the candy that you want!”
“I wish that I had all of the candy that I want, when I want.”
“Good. Done. Nada worries.”
“?”
“*the stupidity kills me*”

MORE years later...

Timmy was 14 with 18 different cavities, twelve rotting teeth that needed to be replaced, never brushed his teeth, ate candy for breakfast lunch and dinner, and had the worst breath ever (all of this caused him to be an ‘untouchable’ according to school standards).

“Ughhhhhh, Mewl, I nweed to loose hate!”
“Hate? Sweetie, you have no hate *or friends*”
“Hate! Hate!”
“Hate?”
“Hate!”
“OH!! Weight!
“Uh-hunh!”

Timmy was now called, well, nobody really talked to him except Mell. She was the only one who really talked to him. But she would always give him these sympathetic glances...
Tim(my) was smart. He didn’t act like it, EVER... But he knew that something was up. He knew that for the four years in which he sank lower and lower in the popularity charts, got worse and worse grades, got ditched by his friends, and his parents leaving of town more often meant that something was up. He also knew that it linked to the dumb wish he had made and Mell’s last side-comments before that.
Mell knew that he was smart. Mell knew that he could hear. Maybe Mell was telling him something? Maybe Mell wanted Tim(my) to stop and not make the wish. Maybe she thought that Timmy really was going to get it. But why would Mell ASK him to make a wish when she didn’t even think that it was smart???? Hmm...
Truthfully Timmy (I am tired of doing Tim(my) because even though he wants to be called ‘Tim’ it ain’t happening) really was onto something. It took a few months, many mystery movies, less candy, and the occasional gulp of mouthwash, but Timmy finally found out that Mell was a secret agent. Of what he didn’t know. So he *stupidly* asked her...
“Hey Mellon!”
“*Oh you dumb-stupid, why are you calling me that?!* Yes, sweet?”
“Are you a secret agent?”
“*stammer, stammer* N-no! Wh-why would you think such a cray-cr-cray thing, hunny-bunny?”
“Cut the acting Mell. I know your side-comments. I know you work for someone. I know that you really do think that if you work for this person, then they won’t eat you. When I said I needed to lose ‘hate’ I meant it. This person it a HATER, and I really do need to catch them. I saw the worry in your eye when I said that, but when you are worried, you tend to make a lot of... side-comments. And then I read a book called Locksher Lolms who is a wonderful detective, and he had a case just like this! So don’t pretend.”
“Ok. I was young... This girl found me. Her name is Sally. I told her I would grant her a single wish of her choice if she were to let me live. She agreed. She also had a crush on you. She asked if I would make you love her, but I said no because it was wrong. Instead, I could make you un-liked and your only choice of a (girl)friend would be her. And she consented.”
“WHAT?!”
“*Let me continue* I did some research and realized that you had a tingling for candy, so I hid myself in a bag of marshmallows and let you find me. You did find me *sooner than expected* and the plan was ready... But you were a good boy and didn’t do anything against your parents. Then I started to like you. So it hurt when the chance came and I had to tell you to make the wish... I was also kind of happy, though, because you were mean to me and made me go in the dresser.”
“Well-”
“*Let me continue* So it happened, but one day I got a letter from Sally, saying that she was at another school and had a boyfriend. The plan was cancelled. And so I realized that I needed to do something... but I haven’t figured out what, yet.”
“So you pretty much tried to ruin me and my life so that you could...”
“Could LIVE.”
“Yeah, pretty selfish of my, hunh?Trying to LIVE.”
“You know what? You can go. You haven’t helped me AT ALL!”

Thus a wonderful friendship ended, a beautiful thing that should have ended, well, never ended because of a misunderstanding.
And this should show those little children not to talk to candy.

The Skinny, Fat Wolf

Not-so-long-ago there was a very skinny wolf, who happened to eat when he was bored. There came a day when he was dared to stay in his house for an entire week by one of his ‘best bud’s.’ When this day happened to come along, so did Ca-chow, a member of the Biggest Artificial Calaborative Operation Near-here (a.k.a B.A.C.O.N. and was meant to save pigs from becoming known only as the BACON-MAKERS).
As Ca-Chow was walking home, he realized that someone was watching him! “Who’s there?!” he yelled.
“Hey, sweetie, I’m here.” said Ba-con, (bay-con) Ca-Chow’s girlfriend.
“Oh, it’s you. I thought I was being watched...”
“That was ME, I love you SO SO SO SO much, hunny!”

“I must have something to eat!” cried the wolf. He just couldn’t stand not doing anything, so what better to do than eat? He looked in the pantry - no food. He looked in the cookie jar - no cookies. He looked at the table - no food. He looked everywhere in his one-room house, but couldn’t find any food. “I don’t care if I am breaking a bet, I NEED FOOD!”
The impatient wolf stalked out of his house and out to the field. He saw some lovely meese grazing and eating their tummies FULL. I will eat one of THOSE! thought the wolf. He snuck up on one and then ate him. Poor moose. Then he ate another. And another. And another. And another. Boy, these are REALLY GOOD! Almost as good as bacon! thought Wolf. Then he ate more more more more more more more more more meese until the entire group was gone. The skinny wolf was now fat, and the fat meese were now very skinny, so skinny that all there was was bones (as in the wolf ate them)!
“Well, time to go to the house and get some food!” said the wolf. He tried to get up. “OW!” He tried again. “OW! What’s wrong with me!? Am I sick or something?!” He tried again. It ended up that the dummy wolf had eaten too much and couldn’t get up.

“I am going to take a walk with the brothers!” shouted Ca-chow as he walked out the door to meet his brothers. The three fat, chubby, juicy, delicious, yummy-looking pigs then set out for a nice long walk. They walked past the town and past the well. They walked past the pub (after a few) and past the houses. They walked past the stores and finally reached the field to which they were headed. “I love it when we take walks together!” squeaked piggie 1. “Me too!” squacked piggie 3. “Me three!” shouted piggie 3.

The wolf heard their voices and thought about calling for help, but when he realized that they were piggies and were delicious-looking ones at that, he opted not to. He struggled and struggled, trying to get up and sneak up on the talkative mammals. He couldn’t. Hours passed and he couldn’t get up. He tried and tried by couldn’t get up. The piggies eventually left, and the wolf was all alone in the dark.
“I shouldn’t have eaten that much!” shouted the wolf. He didn’t realize that the reason he could get up was actually that the meese he had eaten were cardboard and the real meese put superglue on his buttoks. But either way, the wolf learned his lesson.
