IKEA Picture Scavengar Hunt

So last night (Friday) I went on a date with my friend Kurt and two other couples (Morgan and Alan, Jenessa and Colby). We went and ate dinner at IKEA (delicious), and then we went on a picture scavenger hunt. We all had a list of things we had to take pictures of at IKEA, or things we had to be doing in IKEA. It was the best date I have ever been on! Afterward we all sat in Alan's truck bed and then we went to Morgan's house, but back to IKEA. It was all spontanious and fantastic! If anyone wants me to post the list just let me know :) I guarantee it is an awesome date and that anyone who does it will have a blast!!

Song of the week: May 23 - 30

Everything - Michael Buble

And you play it coy, but it's kinda cute.
Ah, when you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend, that you don't know it's true.
Cause you can see it when I look at you.

Song of the Week

May 16 - 22
The Call, Regina Spektor

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry

I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye

Storybook Creator Creations

My mom's name is Kim Harkins, and she has been working for Creative Memories for 16 years. She started when we were living in California, where she was at the height of her business. You may have heard of her?
Well I have never been the girl that is going to sit down for 5 hours and decorate pages and get a cramp in my hand from journaling; that is never going to happen with me. But if that's your thing, hey! I won't judge you.
But a few years back, Creative Memories came out with a computer Program called Storybook Creator. When it came out, I was already kind of into computers. But since then, I have become computer savvy! I have become a sort of expert on Storybook Creator. I make everything from Recipe Cards to Invitations for parties to quote cards and anything else you can think of.
Some of my services on Storybook Creator are making invitations, creating recipe cards, flyers, programs for meetings or plays, and anything else you might need. If you would like my services, comment on this post or e-mail me at swtyARH@yahoo.com.

Song of the Week: May 9 - 15

The Only Exception- Paramore
"And I've always lived like this keeping a comfortable distance...and up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness."

--Great song! Paramore is a rock group, but this song is quiet and sweet, starting out with acoustic guitar and ending the same way, while the song builds up in the middle. I love this song!--

Hello, World!!!

This whole blogging thing is new to me, so I guess that I will just start by introducing myself. My name is Ashlynne Harkins, and I am 16 years old (17 in one month!). So this blog is going to be like a window into my mind. There will be posts of songs that I like, things that I make on Creative Memories' Storybook Creator Program, pictures that I have photoshoped that I like, and many other things that represent me and who I am. So I hope that whoever comes along this blog enjoys it!
