Short List

1. Nike Quotes: 
 I have come to find that Nike has a certain way of motivating me, that no other quote or brand can quite achieve. Whether the phrases are on t-shirts, signs, or advertisements, the words always find a way to drive me to be better and work harder. Almost always, they are straightforward, getting directly to the point. As an athlete, these simple words really hit home. There is something powerful about words that have the ability to make you strive to be extraordinary. 

2. Rainbow Roses:
There is something strikingly beautiful about the fad new flowers called rainbow roses. They're the new rage as Valentine's Day approaches, and men are looking for something unique to gift their sweethearts. My mother, similar to many women, has found the unnaturally bright colored roses dazzling and has begged for a vase full of them. The genetically engineered flowers definitely live up to their name, representing every color of the rainbow on one single rose.

3. Pinterest at pinterest.com: Forget Facebook and Twitter, Pinterest is on the rise these days and is continually gaining more and more members. This amazing website combines the creativity and individualism found on blogs with the social networking aspects found on Facebook and Twitter. As recommended by a friend, I joined the website, and now I find myself unable to pull away from the computer screen. The site is full of ideas for weddings, fashion, photography, or even day-to-day problems. It somehow manages to bring out the inner Martha Stewart in just about everyone. Take one look, and I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

  2. Those roses are cool! So they don't dye them, they actually grow those colors?
