This was one of the most memorable classes that i have ever been in. I couldn't forget this class if i tried, not that i would..<_<....>_>. I think that i gained a lot of knowledge about writing through out this class. Ever project that i finished gave me more confidence in my writing and with each new paper i learned something new, ever if it was just a bunch of words that i misspelled, and that happens a lot. One thing that i liked about this class was the blogs becasue it was writing that didn't have to be spelled right or grammatically correct and if gave me the freedom to write about whatever i wanted, though i could'nt always think of anything to write and than it was hard to write the number og blogs that were required for a grade. but it was still fun. Though the blogs were a unique and fun activity in class my favorite project by far would have to be the video. I had never done a video project before and quite frankly i was a little worried in the begining. Especially being in a group with a bunch of crazy people..<_<...>_>..no..just kidding! ^_^ they're awesome....the video was a great experience and it was a lot of fun. i'm glad that we had a chance to do a project that didn't have a lot of restrictions and that really let us excpress ourselves( and yes miss E, I promise to never dress like that again..<_<..>_>) The hardest projest in this class was the short stories, fairytale, children book thing, just becasue i worked too long on the first story and than i didn't have enough time to do the next story and the fairytale thing was fun, but kinda a pain, that's the most i had ever used a thesaruas in my life. It was difficult to judge the time needed when 2 project were due at the same time..>.<. All in all im goign to miss this class SO much. And im gonna miss you SO much!! i can't even bleive that this is my last class with Miss E *cries*i look forward to being able to you my new writing skills in the future. i think that my writing will only get better from this point on and continue to grow as I write more and more. This class i think help me to prepare for colledge. Thanks for everything miss E... I'll miss you!

Prom
As if i didn't already feel guilt enough about making my boyfriend take a day off of work to come to my prom, but we went to the mall last weekend so that he could rent a tux and the total came to $120!! that's insane!! i mean your not even going to own it, just wear it....for a day.... my dress was about that much and i get to keep it....doesn't make sense to me. so yeah now not only is he taking a day off but he has to spend $120 dollars on an outfit that he's only going to wear once. Luckily though we did get a discount scratch card thing, so we got 25% off the rent! ^_^ and The tux sales guy also gave me a bunch of discount cards to give away to friends that need to rent a tux!! so if you or your boyfriend or whoever still needs a tux for prom come see me, I'll give you a discount card for After Hours Formal wear in the 12 oaks mall! :P

Froggie friend!
When me and my family were coming home from dinner my dad spotted a grey tree frog on the sidewalk to our house.... i of course jumped out and brought him inside dispite my mom's dislike for wild animals in the house... i thought it would be an interesting iea to put him in Rex's cage for a lil while so Rex could have a friend... But i put him in the cage and rex was scared of him :( he wouldn't come out of his cove.... poor Rex, so Rex's friend was released back into the yard...away fomr where he could be stepped on.
Anniversary
on Wednesday it will be my parents 20th anniversary.. i can't even imagine being with someone that long and they are still so happy together. i only hope that i will find that happiness some day. that is a fear that i can understand, a fear of being a lone, but often times fears are what cause the thing your afraid of.
Why
I really wonder sometimes why people are afraid of things that pose NO threat at all... spiders i guess i could kinda understand.. i mean they do bite and some are venomous but why are some many people afraid of clowns? they're just people in make-up... not very scary, a little weird but not scary.. and there is actually a scientific name for fear of peanut butter getting stuck to the roof of your mouth.... it doesn't get much more ridiculous than than, how can you fear something if you realize the fear is totally irrational?
Karaoke
I don't know how i got into this but i'm somehow being forced to sing karaoke tonight...i hate speaking in front of peoepl or sing for that matter... i get so nervous that it makes the situation 10 times worse than it normally would be... how did i get into this!! and how can i get out!! if they do make me sing what would i sing!... i'm doomed...-.-
dreams
when i was little a always wanted a pony! ^_^ like every little girl i suppose but after i grew up i realized it would be kinda hard to keep a pony in the basement. now i have a more realistic dream of owning a pet... ever since i abandoned my dream of having a pony i wanted a husky puppy!! there so cute and make great pets and are so beautiful!! my parents say they shed too much and i can get one when i move out... i think it will be worth it!
One cricket
Did you know that only crickets with wings can made that high pitched screeching noise.. that's what the lady at the pet store told me when i was buying crickets...she scooped up a bunch and handed them to me and said there was only one cricket wing wings so if i fed him to kiaba today the rest of the crickets would be silent.....what do cricket wings looks like... cause lemme tell you i looked through all the crickets and none of them had wings!! and yet all night long...it reminds me that he's there....chirping all night long...-.-....
Gift
almost 8 months that me and Josh have been gogin out and i have NO idea what to get him for his birthday!! i'm freaking out! it's in less than a month and i have NO ideas!! why to guys have it so easy...flowers are ok, candy, jewlery, chocolate....but nooooo, we can't do that.... we have to think and use ours heads to think up the perfect gift... but what is it!!!!!! help....
Today
Today was a great day! not only did i have a sub in math..(no offence to my teacher casue she's great but it's a nice break) i got to help grade papers for all of 3rd hour and than all i did in 5th hour was finish my arachnophobia project...the only bad thing about today is scrambling to finish blogs and script..>.<
Rain
Why is it raining!!!! It was so nice last weekend, the sun was shining, it was over 80 degrees, ahh, it was gorgeous...and now it's raining!!! and raining !!! and raining!! with no end in sight!! i hate rain..-.-...can't even get from my car to the house without getting soaked....hate it... i can't wait fr summer...
project
somhow are talk show has become a stage show for people with psycological problems...we have a split personality...a person that thinks she can talk horses and a crazy video gamer with an alter ego from a video game... and the host id the craziest of them all!!! we all have serious issues..>.<
Root beer
is it that weird that i have never had a float? when my boyfriend asked if i wanted one i told him i had never had one before and he looked at me like i had suddenly started growing a third arm....<_<...>_>... i can't help it if im picky about the food i ate...and drink.. so later that nightr we made root beer floats...they were ok.. i suppose.
Microphone
If I had a microphone i would tell the world!!! that ONLY IN KENYA,WE HAVE LIONS!! because Helana has been saying that constantly for the past 3 days and it is stuck in my head and will not leave and is driving me crazy!!! gee....thanks Helana...
King and Queen
Yay!! King and Queen are back!! they are the ducks that return to our swimming pool everyspring. my dad doesn't really like they becasue they poo all over the pool...but their nice company..and Cookie (my dog) loves to chase them...^_^

Job
OMG!! im goign to quit i swear!! I have been 18 for over 2 months and i requested to become a sever way before that but the manager said we needed more hosts first. yeah ok that's understandable but after she hired 3 new hosts why is Morgan going thouhg her sever training and im still stuck hosting!!! i asked first!! i have been working there longer than her!! i turned 18 before her!!! -.-
Psych
i started a new project in my psychology class and me and my partner have chosen to research arachnophobia, and the best part...I get to bring in Kiaba!!! yeah!!! though hopefully nobody has a heart attack...after all 1/2 of woman and 1/4 of men suffer from arachnophobia.
Tigers!
Last weekend i got to go to my first tigers game. I'm not a huge tigers fan but it was better than i excpected. ad the food there was pretty tasty, though i think it made me sick later that day..-.-...but it was worth it!! too bad we lost...:(

creative writing goal.
Every writing test I remember taking I have done well on though I don’t think I deserve it. I’m lucky enough that I having good test taking skills that I can get a decent grade by writing about a specific topic without really writing a fantastic piece of writing. Although the score on the paper says it’s a good piece of writing I can never shake the feeling that I could have done better, added more detail, made it flow better, or improve on the central idea. In the next 6 weeks in creative writing I would like to be able to learn how to make my writing more complete, how to add more detail and to be able to create a story that flows together instead of sounding choppy. Sometime before the class ends I would love it if we could write a piece that had little or no restrictions and expectations so that the students can experiment with new writing techniques and have a chance to write purely about what interests them. I have a very over active imagination and when I read books about far off places that exist only on paper and in my mind I’m awed by the exceptional detail and ability of the writer to convey exactly what they want the reader to see. I want to improve my own writing in this way. I know I’m no famous author but to be able to improve my writing skills to be able to more accurately convey my thoughts onto paper would be an incredible goal to achieve.

What to write?
hhhhmmmm...what to write? what to write? i would write about my pet tarantula and how it's been acting weird, but than Lena will just comment about how mean and ugly he is...-.-...and i love Kiba. Or i could post about how close it is to spring break but than i might just drift into hopeless daydreaming about the coming days without school. I guess i could write about how i'm going to have to work a rediculous amount during break because all the other hosts have requested those days off....prolly going away to some far away beach...relaxing....while i'm stuck here working. NO...gotta stop writing about that...much too depressing...I could write about how I'm looking forward to a new episode of Survivor tonight! though that perhaps may not be a good idea either...after all, my favorite charachter was just voted off last week. Now who am i sposed to cheer for? hhmmmmI could write about Easter, but what's Easter if your stuck at home while the rest of your family is gathering and having an easter feast without you there? not much fun. Maybe i'll write about not having anything to write...after all, there is always something to write...even if it's about having nothing to write.... that is a starnge topic, though i spose it could be a good thing after all, if something drastic happened that would give me something to write about but it might be something bad....which is an interesting thing to consider...is it better to just cruise through life with small ups and downs never really feeling true heartache and pain, never really feeling wonder and joy or is the opposite better? taking the bad with the good? Loving with your whole heart...leaving yourself vunarable...feeling as if there is no greater joy, but than later regretting ever having met that person for the heartache it brings?Is happiness worth the price of tears?

Movie!
I went to the movies last weekend for the first time in quite a long time (and I went to emagine, because it’s so much better than UA, right Lena? : P) and I saw Premonition. I thought that it was a pretty good movie altogether but there were a lot of small aspects of the movie that didn’t add up. I don’t wanna spoil it for anyone who might see it but, in the movie the days are experienced out of order, and what happened one day that should have been there the next wasn’t there. It was really strange, but it was still over-all a good movie, I think, worth seeing.
.....
I guess the only way to tell this story is from the beginning, and it starts way back in elementary school when I met Kirsten. We became friends and manage to stay friends until we went off to different high schools. After we didn’t go to the same school it was ard to stay in contact with each other. But for some odd reason we still got together for Christmas. We went about our normal lives, going to school, hanging out with other friends, working, but we never talked to each, not for a whole year, but every year around Christmas time we would get together and it was nice to see her again. It’s interesting to talk to a friend that you haven’t talked to so long. It also brings up a lot of memories, After all filling in someone about what’s happened the last year takes of bit of effort. But recently I ran into her parents while my family and I were dining at Big boy and she told me that Kirsten (would had never before really liked the idea of having a boyfriend) was on her first date. weird I know that she’s 18 and on her first date, but I had to know about it, so I broke tradition and called her in the middle of march and we got together and hung out for the day and we had a great time.
another new pet!
I don’t know why my parents won’t let me have a snake. I have always wanted one, a Ball python, more specifically. I guess my mom doesn’t like the fact that they eat mice. But I did find a pet that she will let me having, shockingly. I never thought that the sane person that has refused to let me own a snake for the past decade would let me get a spider that’s bigger than my brother’s bird. Yup that’s right since I couldn’t get a snake, I got the next best thing, a tarantula! And he’s not, creepy and ugly like most people think… he’s cute! and still nameless so if anyone has any great name ideas please comment.
Long night
(warning: this post may make little sence to those not familiar with RPG video games)
I’m not sure why I was compelled to drink 3 cans of soda yesterday, one of which being at 9:00 at night. Not to mention, I had cookies, candy and Cheez-its for dinner. So needless to say I was up ALL night, so that makes this Monday far more tiring than usual, which is saying something. Though I can’t say it was all bad. After failing to fall asleep I made a fair amount of progress on my game of Final Fantasy IV advance for the game boy advance. Brilliant invention the game boy, small, not noisy, compact, no need for an additional light source, perfect for mid-night playing sessions when everyone else is fast asleep. So from 10:00 to about mid-night I discovered a cave that I had never previously known existed (I have played this same game on the SNES before) And so I was compelled to explore every nook and cranny of this newly discovered dungeon only to discover that it was a cave devoted to improving the equipment and ability of the playable characters that I never use. I do however have a rather annoying habit of complete as much of the game as I possibly can, no matter how completely useless it may be. So regardless of these items being completely useless to my completion of this game I still had to get them all. By the end of this dungeon, that I had to travel about half a dozen times, I was ready to cast Edward into the depths of the magma well and bid him farewell forever. I mean its bad enough that he pathetically runs off screen whenever his ridiculously low amount of HP drops below 400, but it’s required that he be present for the hardest Boss battle in the cave, of course maybe it was only the hardest because he was there… I’m not sure. After having completed the useless item gather (with the exception of finding two megaelixers, YAY!) I headed for the moon to try to defeat Bahamut…again. I think I did eventually fall asleep, some time around 5:00 am so needless to say, am I bit sleepy today…

movie quotes
I have never seen this movie, so these quotes, to me, our completely out of context which leaves a lot of room for many different interpretations for these quotes. People can easily relate to quotes, songs and poems. Somehow they have meaning other than just the words the're spoken or written with, although they can still be interpreted many different ways. What one quote, poem or song means to one person could mean something totally different to another person, and there is no wrong way of interpreting quotes. It’s what it means to you in your mind and its meaning is unique to your own interpretation.
What’s true in our minds, is true.
This quote, to me, is saying that that the ideas that you have and the person that you are, is more important than the world around you, the actual physical world, and not to let the physical world limit your goals and dreams
Thought is real. It’s the physical that’s the illusion.
This quote and the previous one are, in my opinion, very similar, trying to convey that the real, physical world isn’t everything, and that a person’s ideas and dreams are more important and should not be limited by the confines of the physical world.
Sometimes when you win, you lose.
It’s not just the outcome that matters, some people say, “all’s well that ends well” but I disagree. The way that you get there is as important as the end result. I think life is a perfect example of this, because there isn’t really a goal to life. You can set goals for yourself, but that’s just something to aim for and something you can achieve. But once you have achieved it than you have nothing left to strive for, until you set a new goal. I think that you should relax and take life as it comes and not too seriously, because if you take life too seriously and take the little, wonderful things for granted than reaching your goal will have no meaning and you’ll have only wasted precious time. That’s what I think this quote means.

Villanelle
This was harder than i thought it would be, it's hard to find words that rhyme and fit together.>.<.
The salty water licked at me as I watched the sea
the waters dance in perfect time
and in the night I turn and flee
I take shelter by a nearby tree
and I settle in the grime
and in the dirt, fall to my knees
Screams erupt like a flight of banshees
the silence broken like a crime
I hide from this world were so many disagree
Will no one come to aid thee
is there nothing left to find
is there someone here that holds the key
is there nothing you can give me
to be free from this, is there time
what will help us to agree
the future, what is there, no one can foresee
and we can only know in a future place and time
and maybe in this world one day we won’t have to flee
and we could be together in this world and all be free.

Happy Birthday to me!! well kinda...
This weekend i got my birthday persent!! even thoguh my birthday isn't untill March 2nd this weekend was sorta a window of opotunity to actually get my present.
You see for as long as i could remember i always wanted to go sky diving and do many other crazy things like bungee jumping,scuba diving, and rock climing :P..but sky diving more so than anything else. So after asking for years and years my parents agreed that for my 18th birthday they would pay for me to go sky diving, but they always figured that i would grow out of it or change my mind by the time i actually was 18...but i didn't. Though after a lot of thought on my part i realized that i would rather have something more memorable for my 18th birthday present, and not just a memory plus i didn't want to drain my parents of $300 either. So i decided to trade in the promise of a sky diving experience for the promise of a tattoo!!
After getting permission from my parents i jumped online and did some research and found out that you have to wait 2 weeks after getting a tattoo to go swimming...which is a problem since im in lifeguard training. so i could either have gotten it this weekend or wait untill summer....and i couldn't wait that long...so my mom took me and my best friend to the tattoo parlor that i had been too previously to scope out and talk to the tattoo artist. I wanted a tattoo of an image that i found online of a white tiger so Scott(the tattoo artist) agree to draw out the image for me! ^_^ So when we got there we printed the image and he made a quick sketch, than reduced the size of it, than made some modifications, than made the actual stencil. now all this took about an hour so whileme,my mom and my friend were all waiting we were looking at the tattoo samples that were in the lobby and there were A TON! and while my mom was looking at some of them she just randomly comes out and says " you know, maybe i'll get one too." i was like "OMG! are you serious?!" and yeah she was... so she found an image that she liked, a little butterfly like thing, and so while i was waiting for scott to finish up the stencil.. my mom went into one of the tattooing rooms and another artist got started on her tattoo. When scott was finished with the sketch it was my turn. i saw my mom on the way back to scott's room and she said that it didn't hurt all that bad....SHE LIED! it did..-.-...but i survived and now i have the tattoo that i wanted!yeah! ^_^

Happy birthday! ^_^
today, February 9th is my mom's birthday! last time my friend's mom had a birthday, they ordered chinese and Courtney,my friend, had to ask me to not only lend her money so that she could get her mom a small gift, but also had me buy it too. In my family I like to try and make birthday's special! it only comes once a year and unlike other holiday's this holiday is unique to you(yes i know other people can have the same birthday as you but not many other peopel, and the focous is still on you, for the most part). so, as i do with even single thing that i possible can, i procrastinated untill the very last possable minute to do all the things that needed to get done. Wensday i had to go straight from school to an apointment than straight to work, and i didn't get back untill 9:00 at night, so i didn't have time to shop like i had planned, and yesterday i tried to get a preemptive strike against my brother by not even letting him on the computer because i knew if i let him on i would never get him off, and we had to go shopping!! so after a quick after school snack we went out to go shopping, but of course, my brother has no money for a girt-.-. *sigh* so of course it's up to me to lend him some money for this special occasion. So after stopping at the bank and cashing my check with the intent of spending all or most of it in one day of shopping. So we finally made it to wal-mart, our one-stop-shopping store for just about anything and we were looking around for a few of the things she said she wanted when i saw their valentine's section and i relized that valentine's day was slowly creeping up on me and i still had no idea what i was going to get my boyfriend. But it's so not fair! i mean, guys have it so easy! Flowers, candy, cute stuffed animals, jewlery, are all perfectly acceptable, easy, apropriate gifts for a girl for valentine's day. But what are we supposed to do!! it's so not fair. But my brother and i did manage to fine several birthday gifts for our mom than all the essentials like, ribbon, wrapping paper, candles, ballons, streamers, and birthday cards. we were heading out of the store at last with the $70 worth of gifts when we had to, of course, stop to play the "trophy hunting game" in the front of the store. My brother totally creamed me-.-, but it was totally unfair! the does were jumping into my line of fire, like "shoot me! shoot me!" stupid does..-.-. But we got home and hid the gifts in my already incredibly cramped closet, and waited untill after diner for our parents to leave for their weekly bowling game so that we could get some of the things ready. Well...like i mentioned before, i'm a bit of a procrastinator so of course i was being lazy watching t.v. and complete one after another " one last song" of guitar hero, and before i knew it, it was already 9:20 at night....20 minutes before my parents return. so i ran upstairs, pried my brother away from the computer, and we had a speed round of ballon blowing uping ( that sounds weird) and let me tell you after blowing up these annoying little ballons for 20 straight minutes, it gets pretty tiring. We finished blowing them up just as out parents got home. so we had to quickly round up all the ballons and hide them. then we all watched surviver, one of several "family shows" that we watch every week. And it's only at 11:00 that i realize we still havn't wrapped the presents and that i forgot one major componet nessesary for every birthday... yeah the cake. Got the candels,forgot the cake. So today after school I have to somehow, get home, make a cake, wrap all her presents and then i have to work-.-. of all the days that my boss decides to scheduale me even though i have requested the day off he picks today. then after working in a restuarant for 4-5 hours i have to go out with my family...to a resturant, my mom's favorite, Fridays. Ok, so it's now 10:30 at night, we eat diner, moms opened her lovly gifts, and everyone's happy, now i can relax and get a good night's sleep.....Ha yeah right, of course not, i still have to meet a few of my friends to go glow bowling, at 11:30 at night....for 2 hours....then i have to drive all the way home while my best friend will probably sleep the whole way. Bur if i can manage to stay away for the drive home then maybe i'll be able to get some sleep...though, i doubt it...

Kill that bug!
seeing as how I slept for the majority of the hour yesterday, I thought it would be a good Idea to get some writing done today but I couldn’t think of anything to write about, and the whole manikin thing is just kinda creepy, so while I was sitting at the computer staring into the blank screen trying to think of something my computer decided that it was going to randomly make a really annoying beep/screech sound and it reminded me about something my brother told me a while back so I guess I’ll write about that.
So during a rare moment when my brother and I weren’t fighting he told me about a new cellular ring tone that (for the most part) could only be heard by people 18 or younger, The Mosquito ring tone. I was curious about this new sound so I did some research to find out a little bit more about it and learned why it’s called the mosquito…SO annoying. But I still couldn’t understand why only kids and teens could hear it so with further research I found out that as people get older they lose the ability to hear above 16 Khz, and the Mosquito ring tone’s is played at 17 khz. So even though I now knew why only teens and kids could hear I now of course I had to test it to see it works first hand. so me and my brother went into my parents bedroom, where my parents were watching TV, and got onto the computer to download the mosquito ring tone and turned the volume up pretty loud. Me and my brother flinched when the sound finally started to play and my parents didn’t so much as look in our direction, so we finally asked them if they could hear anything coming from the computer and they said that they couldn’t
People have used this newly found sound against teens and in turn teens have used it against the adults. Many shop owners and fancy restaurant owners broadcast this sound very loudly to repel teens from coming near their shop and teens, in turn, have downloaded this very same sound to alert them when they receive a text message, voice mail or get a call, so that in classrooms, teachers are unlikely to catch them because, odds are, they won’t be able to hear it.

I am...
I am a wolf
strong, majestic, and free
I roam the lands unchallenged
I run upon the open planes
and i can fly
I am dusk
I am both night and day
the end of something old
and the begining of something new
strong, majestic, and free
I roam the lands unchallenged
I run upon the open planes
and i can fly
I am dusk
I am both night and day
the end of something old
and the begining of something new

True color test
I feel that the true colors test that we took was extremely accurate. The test showed that my true color is geen, followed closly by blue, which is defenetly me. always following my head before my heart even when giving other people advice. And i'm most certainly convinced that my curiousity will be the end of me one day. When i was a kid my mother could never take me anywhere because at stores i was always pulling things off the shelves trying to see what they were and how they worked...actually, i still do that...>.<. I like to solve puzzles and when i come across one that i just can't figure out it will keep me awake at night for days.
though i feel that green does accuratly describe me there are some aspects of the green personality that i don't have. Im certainly no rocket scientict and i don't really enjoy math very much, though i do enjoy the fact that that there are clear cut answers and not just opinions. I hardly ever let my feelings get the best of me and i always try to look at things from a logical point of view and im very open-minded. I also find it to be easy for me to put myself into other peoples' shoes and see what life would be like as them.
Sometimes it's difficult for me to make dicitions because im torn between the logical thing to do and what my heart is telling me what to do. it feels like each half of me is being torn in a different direction. like visiting my boyfriend who lives in howell, my heart tells me that i really want to see him no matter what, but my other half is asking if driving 40 minutes there and 40 minutes back just to be there for a few hours and using up a half tank of gas is really worth it. But things usually end up for the best in the end.
