Today is my birthday and itβs also
Iβm 13 years old today! I would like to throw a pool party, but thatβs not possible right now due to the pandemic π« So this whole βThirteen things Iβve learned in the past 13 yearsβ is is pretty much what everyone else posts on their birthday, so I decided to do it too!
13 Things I’ve learned in the past 13 years:
1. Books are a Great Escape from the Real World – π Books π transport you to a magical land… you have to picture everything in your mind, which makes you more creative, they also don’t need WIFI to run, and they don’t need to be recharged.
2. Friends are Important – If I wanna spam someone,I spam my friends, that’s all they’re good for. π NO! Just kidding! Good friends are always there for you if you need ’em. Iβm also thankful for my blogging friends because I have people to interact with especially during this pandemic.
3. Be Content – There are people in the world who donβt have the best of everything like the rest of us. We gotta be content with what we have because some people have nothing.π
4. Eat healthy & Exercise – Too much potato chips, ice cream, and candy are not good for you in the long run! Eating vegetables and fruits and good food will keep your body healthy and full of energy, and it will keep your skin looking healthy also. Being active also good, go for a walk and get some fresh air!
5. Learn to Adapt – Change is constant. Always be willing to change-even if you don’t want to.
6. Be more Prepared – I’ve learned that being prepared for things is always a good thing. You will make less mistakes if you are more prepared.
7. Travel broadens your mind – I always learn new things when I visit somewhere new. Plus, I get to see some stunning places. 𧳠π§ βοΈ
8. Be thankful all the time – Always be thankful for what you have. No matter what. Being thankful gives you a positive outlook in life.
9. Be Patient – Good things come to those who wait π This is hard to do sometimes, but thereβs no getting out of it!
10. Think Positively – Everything will work out right in the end.
11. Pray Without Ceasing – Whatever is going on in your life donβt loose faith and always trust in God. ππ½
12. The best things in life are FREEE! – Think about this one, Iβll give you some emoji hints π π π π π¨βπ©βπ§
13. Art is Amazing! – πΌ For me, art is something I can do at any place at anytime. Some say it’s calming, and I think it’s great if I’m ever bored, or I just want a short break from my Math lesson to draw a dragon. π
πππ WOOO HOOO ITS PARTY TIIMEEE! πππ
I think I should have some music? Just a soundtrack so you can listen to it while you scroll and read this post π (yes, yes, or course itβs How to Train Your Dragon and Harry Potter, what else did you expect from me?) I also have some funny Harry Potter GIFs to show you all π
this was a good find!
NOW we have a blog party! *throws confetti! EVERYONE IS INVITED! Introduce yourself in the comments below, and tell a little bit about your blog. Aaaaaand you can enjoy all the food and drinks I have! Thereβsπ§bubble teaπ§, πΊbutter beerπΊ, andπ₯€popπ₯€!
VINTAGE POP BUTTER BEER
For food we have, π‘Mochi ice creamπ‘, Harry Potter π°cakeπ°, and πburgersπ with πfriesπ. Okay, I know I said to eat healthy, but this is a birthday blog party! π€©

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARIELA!!!!!!!πππ Welcome to teenage-dom! Weβve been waiting for you….
I hope you have a GREAT DAY despite not having a party.π€π€π€

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!π₯³
Thank you, Miriam!π€
Of course!β€οΈ
Happy Birthday,Ariela! Welcome to your start of the teen years. Thanks for following me on WP as well. I live also in Atlantic Canada—specifically in Moncton,New Brunswick. From your travel bucket list, i see that Philippines is one of them. I was born and raised there before coming to Canada years ago. The Philippines is also an English speaking country. You will find the folks there very friendly and hospitable. Get yourself vaccinated before your next trip and stay safe!
Ooh thatβs so cool! I live closer to Saint John! My mom is from the Philippines, and she took me there when I was a tiny baby! Of course, I donβt remember anything, so I need to go there again!
Yes, do go but make sure all the travel restrictions here(self-isolation and quarantiningrules)have been reasonably lifted before traveling. The premier Mr.Higgs just made it a rule that whether you travel by air or by land,once you return to New Brunswick, you have to check into a designated quarantining hotel for 7 days at your own expense. Here in Moncton, it is the Hyatt in downtown. In your case, I think it is either the Saint John Hilton or the Delta Hotel but better check it on your end there just in case. I find this newrule bothersome. Hopefully it will be lifted soon because I myself want to travel too. Happy Birthday again,Ariela! Stay safe!ππ·
Ahhhh yes, all the complicated COVID-19 rules! Weβll be sure to follow them π thank you!

U R welcome!π(βΒ΄β‘`β)

Thank you!π€
βΊ
Happy birthday!! πππ Glad you’re having a great day! I hope not just this year, but the rest of your teen years are kind to you. It’s not always easy, but it does get better ππ
Thank you so much! Being a teen sounds kinda fun, except for the whole being responsible part π
It definitely has its fun points, but you’ll find out as you go what you do and don’t like about it. I will say this, the things you don’t like do get better once you hit your 20s
Thatβs good to know π
Happy bday Ariela!! God bless u always! Nice list of countries. π₯°
Thank you Nushhe! π€π€π€
Happy Birthday, young lady. Keep this list for your 14th one next year, and just repeat #11 twice! You will need it more as you mature. (But you already are demonstrating wisdom I wish we could see in septuagenarians! π)
May God richly bless you and your family in Christ Jesus.
Thank you so much! I will keep this list in mind, always! Have a nice day!π€
