time to play catch up

Man i wish i would have stayed up on my blogs better..i thought i had aleast 20, turns out im at about 10!

I'm happy that my paper&presentation ended up going as well as it did. I was kind of nervous but i think i know how to work a crowd when given a chance! plus who doesn't love a presentations with Bill O'Reilly!
I feel like Arnold Friend was a important character to write about in my mid term because after all the character we have discussed in class, he has to be my favorite. We all can relate to an Arnold Friend that has come in or out of our lives and that part of the wonder of his character.
And we all can relate to Connie being that naive teen girl who thinks she can trust the world. Maybe these two characters go hand in hand. They work off of each other, mind sets.

We've suppose to blog about if we could ever or even want to step into the shoes of one of our enemeies. I would never want to walk in her shoes yet, alone put them on. I'm happy to be myself and wouldn't want be anyone else. I would not want to be seen as mean by my peers, nor have the strong hatred that she holds in her heart for people. I would never want to be that type of girl like my enemey whom holds grudges and hatred for unexplainable reasons. I feel like there gets to be a point when you need to stop wanting to be someone else and just embrace yourself.

John's I pad made me want one, so I went to the book store and checked it. They have them on display at the bookstore. They are pretty cool but there something special about being able to hold and turn pages of book.

days dont get much worst than this


My worst day is one I never want to relive.

Before I start off on the retelling of my worst day, I would like to fill the reader in on a few facts about my life. My family has always been really close, but my mom and I are by far the closest! She’s my whole, I tell her everything, is my best friend.
My worst day took place 3 years ago Feb 10th, my mom and I were sitting in the living with room, finishing the planning on my birthday party, which was the next day February 11th. I looked up at my mom and all the sudden her speech wasn’t sounding right, it started to come up all slurred and uneasy. She tried to get up and she wasn’t able to. My mom fell back into the chair in our living room, unable to talk clearly or move. An uneasy feeling set over my stomach and I immentaitley ran to get my dad who was down stair on the exercise bike.
“ Dad, Something’s Wrong with Mom!” I screamed. At first he looked at me with disbelieve but than I gave him a look of urgency, and he realized I was serious. We both sprinted back up the steps, my dad told me that he need my help to get mom in the car to take her to the ER. At the point my mom could barely walk, carrying her was struggle not only physically but emotionally. Upon arrival at the hospital my dad gave me the keys and I had me park the car. I sat in the parking lot crying, I just couldn’t stop because I knew my mom was sick. She had a stroke, Within the weeks to follow my mom had 2 more strokes and spent a total of 8 weeks in Milwaukee Hospital before surprising everyone, being the complete miracle she is and pulling through. My mom now does the ads for the hospital that saved her life.

Final Sonnet& Door Poem

Lights Lights,
Turn off,
Garbage Garbage,
Pick up,
Desks Desk,
Put Back,
Leave Leave,
Please


Your smile has a glow of a sunny day,
With plenty a warmth and a comfort glow,
That constant grin tells me everything okay,
Temperate is high and the days pass slow,

Your love fills a missing in my lone soul,
This kind of feeling only Disney can describe,
Happy, this has became a love I now know,
One look at you make every part of me come alive.

I pinch myself to know that this loves real,
Everyday I thank the angels up above,
The happy and the joy, that you help me feel,
For sending me you, and this great love

Your presence gives me a great desire wanting desire,
So come on baby and light up this fire.
