Not your Typical Vegetable



When I came across this news report, I wasn't quite sure what to think. Actually, this was the procession of my thoughts:
  1. Ew. You know that feeling you get when you are looking at something while eating a different item? For example; If I'm looking at a gallon of Orange Juice and I'm drinking a cup of milk, I get a sick feeling because I was expecting to taste orange juice. I almost want to spit it out. Or when water comes in a can on airplanes. Isn't that the most bizarre feeling? Your mind tricks you into expecting what you're thinking about.
  2. Cool! They package apple slices in little bags, so why not carrots! And one of the packages even looks feminine! Don't see that too often.
  3. Hmmm...I wonder how other people will take this new campaign. Even though the article says its not an anti-junk food campaign, you can't help but get the feeling they're trying to one-up Doritos.
  4. Wow. $25 million?! That's a lot of money. And the slogans aren't extremely creative. I mean, "scarrots?" First thing that makes me think of is scabs. I'm not saying I can do better, but if they're going to spend $25 million, they might as well get something cooler than that.
Would you buy carrots in a chip bag? Will it be a success? What do you think?

BIG NEWS

Attention, attention. This is some BIG NEWS. Like the title said.




I am going to start becoming........Consistent!

Anyone who reads this blog doesn't know what I'm planning on majoring in at the moment. Since I haven't disclosed this information to many people, this may come as a surprise, but hopefully you will think "Oh, okay, that sounds like something Kelly might enjoy and/or be good at." If you don't think that, maybe you will give me some suggestions???
Alright, the game plan right now is Communications! I'm not quite sure which emphasis at the moment, but I'm leaning towards Communication Studies. Or advertising. Or PR. Or Print Journalism. But not Broadcast Journalism.


So, to give me a better idea of the advertising world, I am taking Intro to Advertising. And as part of that, I have to write a blog. So, really, that is why I'm going to be consistent. But only for four months! So don't get comfortable. Because I like the title of my blog and I don't want to change it.

Oh, and here's a video* that cracks me up every time.



* Mom- click on the word "video."

Alright, alright...

So, I know I have been inconsistent...but really, isn't that what this blog is all about? A surprise post!

Well, I'll just put up a few pictures from this summer.


My birthday



A little cutie and me at the pool

2 little cuties

Sisterly love on the 3rd of July

Thrift (junk) store hat

Well, that about sums up my summer. Well, the most fun things at least. My summer was mostly just nannying. I did have a lot of fun this summer spending quality time with my parents though! I always love being with them and I'm lucky I have such wonderful parents!

Now its back to school...

To all my fans out there...

This one goes out to you.

A post!

I just had a lovely trip to Disney World with the whole family plus grandparents. It was wonderful to relax, have fun, and just spend time with my siblings. Here are a few pictures from the trip (which are mostly just pictures of the pictures they took on the rides)


The "Smoking Jacket" we found in the house.

Just Jammin' to some Aerosmith...Enjoying Rockin' Rollercoaster

It was such a fun vacation and I'm ready to do it again!

Summer Fun: Pt. 4

O, Canada!
I'm becoming consistent...but don't get too comfortable with it, because once school starts this consistency will end.
This summer, we spent Canada day with our relatives up north in the grand old country of Canada. It was fun relaxing, enjoying cool weather, visiting family, and reminiscing.


Isn't it beautiful?!


Mom, Dad, and me

Cousin Brent and me examining something.

This restaurant was entirely covered in flannel.

Appetizing?

A cutsey ice cream and candy shop. They wouldn't sell me their "Belle" pez dispenser. :(

Hmmm...I still don't know what to think about this. Does it really matter where your ice comes from?


Fun at the lake
Sisters!

This is by far, the best picture of the trip. HAHAHAHA
