Visiting the Moon?

If I had the oppotunity to visit the moon I would take the offer. I would want to see what it is like to be in a pkace with no gravity. See how high and light I am with no gravity. I would also want to do different types of flips because i know that the only way i would be able to do them. I want to see what our universe looks like, i want to see all the stars and planets from a closer view. I would want to be able to take pictures of all the beautiful things surrounding our universe.

10 Haikus

As the wind does blow
Across the trees, I see
Buds blooming in May

-------------------------------

I walk across sand
And find myself blistering
In the hot, hot heat

------------------------------

Its cold and I wait
For someone to shelter me,
And take me with them

--------------------------------

Silence around us
Our watchful eyes see the world
Hands do the talking

---------------------------------

I love Winnie the Pooh
Winnie the Pooh loves to eat honey,
Bees chase Winnie the Pooh

------------------------------------

Fall has just arrived
I like the colorful leaves
Come watch them with me

----------------------------------

Fall is leaves falling
Munching on juicy apples
A warm fire burning

---------------------------------

Snow falling slowly
blanketing the trees and grass
Beauty and silence

---------------------------------

White light shining through
Patterns along my green wall
Brightewning my day

--------------------------------

Rain falls, seeds sprout
Continues life is something
Samll but strong it grows

Earning Money

There are several ways someone my age, a seventeen year old can earn money. For example they can invent or produce a product that is inexpensive to produce and make profit out of it. Another way is by helping their parents or family with a big chore they might have. You could also ask your paretns for an allowance every week or month. One common thing people my age do to earn money is getting a job. By the time anyone turns seventeen they want to get a job.

"The Baby Dragon"

Once upon a time a little boy that was playing with his brothers and sisters in the woods came upon an egg. he was not sure where this egg had come from and how it got there. The little boy took the egg back to his village and showed his parents. His parents did not believe that it came from a harmful animal so they decided to keep the egg. they kept it warm and in a safe place so it can  hatch soon. AS days went by, nothing happened, but as a few weeks went by one day the little boy noticed that the egg had a crack. He immediately called his family, they witnessed how the egg hatched and were anxious to see what was inside. To their surprise they saw it was a baby dragon. They did not know what to do with it, but as soon as the baby dragon was able to walk it went to the little boys mom to seek for affection and the baby dragon won her over. They decided to keep the baby dragon and lived happily ever after.

Fall

My favorite season is Fall because it is a season where there are a couple of holidays. The first one is Halloween in the begining of October everyone gets into the Halloween spirit, they begin to put up Halloween decorations and during mid October people begin to buy Halloween costumes. Halloween is a Holiday to dress up as anything you want to be, scare people or get scared, go to parties, and most importantly have fun. The next is Holiday is Thanksgiving , after Halloween everyone takes down their Halloween decorations and puts up Thanksgiving decorations. Thanksgiving is a time to be spent with family and cherish what you have because not everyone as fortunate. Also during the Fall the colors of the leaves change and become brown, orange, yellow, and red. Nature develops beautiful colors and transcends to a new era. During the Fall it is mostly chilly and the perfect season to cuccle with that special someone. Fall is composed of a lot of things not just these, this is why it is my favorite season.

Game Show

If i could be on any game show i would be on Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? On this show the contestant is aked questions from 1st grade (being the easiest) up to 5th grade (being the hardest). The questons are separated into different subjects and have the advantage of having one of the 5th graders help you answer the questions when ever you may not know a question. Depending on the level of the question and if you answer correctly you win a certain amoun of money. I tihnk this would be a fun game show to go in because you get tested on how much you actually remember from being in the 5th grade and the more questions you answer right the higher the amount of money you will win.

My Home

The best room in my home would definitely be my room. I choose my room because it is my get away whenever i want to be alone, or when Im having a bad day. My room gives me comfort and satisfaction of knowing that i do have a place to call my own. Another reason i chose my room was because it is where i spent most of my time when i am home. I watch television, do my homework , listen to music, and have me time in my room. In my room I like to have alot of sentimental things to surround me like my virgen mary, flowers or bears that are given to me, and anything that brings back a beautiful memory.

Working at a Football Satdium

If i was given a job at a football stadium i would probably choose the ticket seller because it is the easiest job there. I would just be in a booth calling next and asking the customers how many tickets will they purchase and where in the stadium they would like to be seated. I would return change if necessary, if not just call next again. Besides it being the easiest job there another reason I would choose to be a ticket seller is because if my friends or families ever want to go to a football game i could probably give them discounts or give them preference on where they want to seat in the stadium.

Four Years ago

Four years ago i was thirteen, it was my first year being a teeneger. At that time i was attending Crozier Middle School. At the age of thirteen i didn't have the freedom of making alot of my choices, for instance i couldn't stay up as long as i wanted, i had a bedtime, but now it's my choice when my bedtime is even though i dont have a bedtime i could go to sleep whenever i want. Another thing i could't do at thirteen was have a boyfriend my parents thought i was too young and thirteen wasn;t an appropriate age to have a boyfriend, but i saw that almost every girl had a boyfriend so i didn't quite understand why parents would tell me no. At thirteen i also wanted to drive because my brother was taught to drive at a young age ,but my parents didnt want to teach me, they didn't want me to be independant just yet. Now at 17 i can do all these things and so much more.

Monkey as a pet?

I personally think that a monkey will not make a good pet. Sure some people think they are cute to have around because some people would like to dress them up and treat them as if they were their own kid, but a monkey is a wild animal it cant be domesticated. Ive heard some gruesome stories on monkeys one for example wa when a lady was going to her car and her neighbor had a monkey as a pet, while she was walking to her car she noticed that the monkey wasn;t its usual self that day. All of a sudden she saw that the monkey was running toward her angry, the monkey then got on top of her and started to scratch, beat and bite the lady. All the ldy could do was scream for help because she couldnt get the monkey off of her, then an officer came and the monkey started attacking the officer. The officer got a bad injury on her arm but the other lady got he faced disfigured.After that attack she no longer has a face her eyes are gone, her nose was moved to the side. She now lives wearing a mask for the rest of her life. This is one reason why i think monkeys do not make good pets.

The Youngest Person I Know

The youngest person I know is my three year old cousin. My cousin can be cute at times, like whenever he see's me he runs up to me and gives me a big kiss on my cheek. At other times he can be a real troublemaker, he likes to throw things whenever he doesn't get his way and he imitates all the bad things his older brother does who is a really bad influence on him. He teaches him what to do, say and act. Whenever his older brother isn't around though my little cousin is a pleasure to have around because he is quiet and obedient.

Oldest Person I Know

The oldest peron I know would have to be my dad's aunt which is i think also my aunt. my dad see's her lik as second mother because when he was little she would always look after him and the rest of his brothers and sisters. Out of all of them my dad was the one who has been closest with her. Because my dad see's her like a second mother I see her like a third grandmother. She shows so much love to my brother and I that we always want to look out for her,especially now that she's very ill.

My Bedroom Artwork

If i was a wonderful painter and my parents let me paint anything I wanted on my bedroom walls, I would probably fill my walls with flower paintings. O would have every beautiful flower you could think of. My main goal would be that my bedroom looks like a beautiful field filled with flowers. As soon as anyone walks into my room i want them to feel a sense of serenity and be blown away by all the beauty that will be painted on my walls.

"The Bat Who Couldn't Fly"

Tom Tom was the only adolescent bat who could not fly. All his little friends where the same age as he was and they all had the ability to fly. Whenever Tom Tom would see them fly he would get sad and hop to his mom saying "Mommy why cant I fly?" His mom sadly did not have the answer so she would tell him"Tom Tom you can fly you just have to try hard and believe in yourself that you can do it!" As days went on Tom Tom would try to fly everyday, sometimes he would fall from the tree nest and his mommy or daddy had to fly down and carry him back onto the nest. Whenever this would happen Tom Tom would not want to fly anymore, he would give up. Tom Tom had a friend who's name was Clara who he really liked, but the only way he could get to Clara was by flying to her. Clara became Tom Tom's motivation and before he knew that motivation took him far because as days went on Tom Tom could fly farther and saty in the air longer. Before he knew it Tom Tom could fly like the rest of his friends and the first thing he did was he went flying to Clara to show her what he had accomplished because of her.

Lunch with a Famous Person

If I could have lunch with any famous person It would be with Jackie Chan. I would like to ask him how long he has to practice the stunts that he does. I would also ask him what percentage of the stunts are actually realistic. I would also like to ask him who was is favorite actor to work with. I think this lunch would be unique and interesting because I would learn what an actor has to go through on set.

My Sibling

I only have an older brother, he is two years older than me. Because he is a guy we dont really relate with most things and we cant talk about certain things with one another. My brother can be at times a very serious person and go straight to the point. Even though he might be like that most of the time theres times where we joke around and have fun. He helps me whenever i need help with certain things like get a ride somewhere, whenever im having trouble with the computer or other things that dont want to work, and he also lets me borrow his credit card but i have to pay him whenever the bill comes. Even though sometimes i do wish i had a sister im glad i have a brother like him.

My Pet

If i could have any animal for a pet i would probably want a dolphin to be my pet. I really like dolphins because you could train them to do tricks and they could take you for rides in the water. I would want to teach it how to clap, dance , and do flips. I think this would be a very unique expierence because people teach their pets to do tricks on land and not in water. And also i dont no anybody who has a dolphin as a pet. To take care of it i would buy a big pool where i would keep it, i would also have to buy lots of fish to feed it and also reward it with fish everytime it learns something new to do. I would always make time to play with it and not neglect it and maybe within time i would get another dolphin so it wont get lonely.

My Journey on a Pirate Ship

The smell of ocean and seaweed was in the air, the waves were calm. I didnt know what i was doing i was dressed up as a pirate and when i was looking around i realized i was in an odd looking ship with other people who were also dressed like me running around the ship. "Captain shore is near what are your comands?" I had no clue what he was tlaking about me? captain? This cant be real, this has to be a mistake. One of the sailers then explained to me that i was the captain of this ship and that we were pirates in search of a big treasure. At first i didnt believe it but i realized if this is true i have to take charge. Once we arrived at the desserted island we went in search of the treasure. As we were looking for the treasure i was thinking to myself this seems so unreal. "Captain, X marks the spot." Well what are you waiting for start to dig. As they kept digging they didnt find anything, hours passed and still nothing. Suddenly after digging for a long time i hear a big bang ,"Captain we found something." Take it out of the ground as we were about to open the treasure chest i hear a sudden sound that i couldnt quite figure out what it was it just kept getting louder and louder. Then i wake and realized that everything was just a dream and the sound i was hearing was my alarm.

My Deepest Fear

My deepest fear in life is death. Just the simple fact that i know we are all going to die terrifies me. I cant imagine not living anymore and never waking up again. Not being able to see the sunlight, or smelling the fresh flowers, not being able to see the ones you love any longer, just not being able to breath anymore asphyxiates me. In church we're taught that there is an after life where some of us are going to go but the truth is i dont know if it will be better than actually staying on this earth. At times when im about to go to sleep i think about that sleeping is similar to when you die because you go to sleep you dont know anything about whats going on in the world, you dont feel anything as if you didnt exist. I know we have to learn to accept the concept of death and know that our time can come at any moment but as for me i have not yet accepted the concept and dont know if i ever will.

My Own Restaurant

If i opened up my own restaurant it would be called Goodies. it would be a restaurant were we would serve any kind of desert that you could think of. The unique thing about my restauant would be that we would not only serve pastries from the US but also pastries from all over the world. We want to be a diverse restaurant so people can come in and enjoy pastries that they are not familiar with. By coming to our restaurant people will not only enjoy pastries from otther countries but also try a little bit of their culture and gain knowledge on what other people are eating in other countries to satisfy their sweet tooth. My restaurant will be run by me and my family and close personal friends only. I dont think my restaurant could be in better hands than thsese persons. My restaurant will have a very welcoming atmosphere with vibrant painted walls and also frames from the various countries from which our pastries originate from.

Dinosaur in My Back Yard

If i ever saw a dinoaur in my back yard i would think that the world has gone back billions of years because theres no possible explanation why a dinosaur would be in my back yard during this era. But if there was a dinosaur in my backyard i would only panic if the dinosaur was a carnivore because i dont want to get eaten by a dinosaur, but if the dinosaur was a herbivore i wouldnt mind if it was in my back yard because i know that i wouldnt be its meal. I think it would be a interesting and unforgettable expierence to have in your backyard something that was walking the earth billions or trillions of years ago. The way they ate, walked and interacted with its surroundings. But like i said only if its a herbivore i would be okay with a dinosaur in my back yard.

Family Meal

Im not really expierenced with cooking because ive only helped my mom prepare the family meals and not made anything by myself. So if i had to cook any meal for my family it would have to be simple but delicious at the same time. I think i would cook them breakfast, i would make them pancakes with bacon, toast, eggs, and hash brown. I wouls start with the pancakes and mix all of the ingredients, once i did that i would then put the bacon into the pan and cook it. After that i will then prepare the hashbrown and the eggs.After everything is ready i will put the bread in the toaster and start preparing the table. Then i will put everytihng on plates and call my family to eat to have a nice delicious breakfast made by me. (:

When i was brave

Bravery is one of the qualities that I believe everyone has within. Not everyone may show it often but when the time comes that person breaks out of their shell and conquers the situation. In my case I dont like anything that has to do with horror, for instance horror movies or halloween nights at theme parks. Last year one of my friends invited me to Knotts Berry Farm Horror Nights, at the begining I was unsure if I wanted to go or not because of the simple fact that all of the characters from the horror movies will be chasing me or either popping out of places. Eventually my friend was able to convince me to go, so i went. As the group of us were walking in, the first thing that I see were monsters everywhere and one of them decided to just walk around me, I was very uncomfortable. As the night went on monsters were popping out of anything and in the mazes monsters were in the corners blending in with the theme and it was dark so you couldnt really see teh monsters. As the night was almost over I realized that Horror Nights aren't frightening, the monsters look fake and they only chase you when they see that your afraid. After that night I felt that I had done a brave thing and now I'm not afraid of Horror Nights at theme parks and looking forward to horror nights this halloween.

Do you remember?

Do you remember the first day of our freshmen
How uncertainity and curiousity filled our thoughts.
The way Mr.Cain would walk around the school intimidating and supressing our freshmen class.
The look on our faces the first time we saw Mr. Rich act like Mr. Rich.
 How laughs would increase whenever Dr.Vaughn would bust out with his dance moves.
Freshmen year was definitly one of the most interesting and unique years we've had, but as days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, and months turned into years, its been four years and we are now seniors.
Its time for new memories, new expierences, and new adventures to have an unforgettable year like we did our ninth grade year.
Do you remember the first day of our freshmen year?

If i had a hundred dollars?

If i had a hundred dollars i would probably want to spend it on clothes like i do with all the money that i save up. Sure that would probably satisfy me, or not,but why spend it on something that i already have? Why not do more with that one bill that can change someone's life. Why not give it to a charity or foundation that can help provide basic needs for poeple that are not as fortunate as i am.
If i had a hundred dollars i would donate the money to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This hospital is filled with children patients that have different types of cancer. These children go through chemotherapy and so many diferent types of treatment. This treatment is both painful and expensive and these children need the treatment to be able to survive from this deadly disease. I know a hundred dollars wont be much, but at least I'll have the satisfaction of knowing that i contributed in helping a child become one step closer to retrieving their childhood.

This journal is not a personal journal, its a journal where i can jot down ideas and express my writing. A jornal where i write down things that can occur to everyone. This is a place where you can say whats on your mind without being criticized. This isnt an ordinary journal its your thoughts and ideas its your journal.

There was something about the way he caguht my eye, the way he made me feel, the way everything seemed to disappear when he was around. It was then that i knew this might turn into more than just a friendship. As days went by the feelings kept getting stronger, in my head all i could hear was make the move! Drop the bomb, ill catch it. And in fact he did drop the bomb he finally decided to ask me to be his girlfriend. Of course i said yes because there was something about the way he caught my eye.
The first thing i want in the morning is to wake up to a delicious aroma of pancakes being cooked. I could hear the clashing of pans, cabinet doors opening and closing. the aromas get stronger, bacon is sizzling in a pan, the smell of bacon is then followed by the smell of eggs being cooked. All these aromas have now came clashing into my room , the smells are irresistable. My stomach is roaring, i think its time to wake up!
