My Childhood Neighborhood

As the old man approached my friends and me he seemed very mad. You see me and my friends were playing cops and robbers and we were all barefoot, so we had no way of running away very fast. He has told us numerous times to not play cops and robbers because we disturb the peace with the fake guns which we used flashlights for. When we would shoot we shined a light and then you were injured. The old man always seemed to be napping when we played and hiding by his bedroom window was the best because you could never tell that someone was there; but when you shot the light reflected into his bedroom and made him wake up. :/

He thought the lights were headlights, so he didn't move as much. Soon as he

heard us talking he moved a lot more. we didn't know what to do. So we took the

Bicycle , that was in his room and decded to ride it around the house. It didn't seem like he was awake. As soon as my friend turned around there he was. She thought he was sleep walking and talking gibberish, but to me, it didn't seem like he was. She started to scream.

I was so scared I couldn't do anything but stand there and and freak out that he was going to hurt us after I got my breath back I took off on the bicycle with out my friend and hit a big rock and flipped over the handle bars I was all beat up but I got up yelled for my friend and went far from that creepy guy.

The story of Betty Jean:)

Hi, my name is Betty Jean. I am a photographer for all the monkeys in the rain forest. As you can see I am struggling to take a picture and I'm not really sure why.. It won't take a picture. Well there's this monkey and she always starts drama and she's just trying to ruin my rep by messing with my camera. They colored my lens so all I could see was green and while I was trying to clean it, that girl took my picture and my rep was now known as the monkey that is very unprofessional.:(

Dear Me,

Dear Me,

First to prove it's me; remember when you were told to never cross the main street in Dumas and you and Alex did anyways and you seen your mom and dad pulling up to the Allsup's and you tried to hide and ended up falling over the bike and crying and your dad getting you and loading up your bike and you were grounded for a week but actually got let off the hook by Wednesday cause you sat at the door and cried?

Right now your in English in Coach K's sitting behind Ashley. It's going to be hard to let your mom go but you've got a phone and I hope you call/text/visit her all the time. Your job ha your workin at John Deere right now and you stay as busy as possible so you don't have to answer those stupid/complicated phones.

How'd you do at Tarleton? Are you in Florida pursing the BIGGEST dream you have ever dreamt of in your life? Who's your husband? Any kids? There are so many things that you want to do and I hope you get them all done because I know you can.

Even if life gets harder it'll just make you stronger. I hope you remember your password to read this in thirteen years to show how much devotion you need to put in everything you do. Cause sittin in this desk your dreams are to big to hold in this school or even in this town. In May of 2010 it will be time to put your big girl shoes on and take the next step in life.

May all your dreams become reality.

Love Me

Coach Rhodes

Coach Rhodes is a great role model. He defiantly does have a way with words and staying in your heart. My one memory that I remember really well is when he told us about his dream. He dreamed that Jason off of Freddie Vs. Jason, was chasing him and he was telling him to come on and he climbed in a tree. He said he kept out running Jason. Silly Coach. He had the whole class laughing and ask us if we ever dreamed of that. Couldn't say I have but he defiantly made my day with his one story. Well, I guess that's all I have oh wait!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COACH RHODES!!!

Second Thoughts

The closer time gets the more scared I get of graduation. I can't wait but at the same time it's just hitting me that I am going to be on my own. Like holy cow, we are about to be adults! It's really going to kill me to leave everything I have lived for and with for my whole life behind. I know I'll be back but I have to leave my mom and my dogs. That kills me because my mom's my best friend and I told my mom that I would have to buy a fish that way I could have at least one animal..

But on the plus side of this blog.... I DID GET ADMITTED TO TARLETON STATE UNIVERSITY!!! I WILL OFFICIALY BLEED PURPLE IN THE FALL OF 2010!!! I am so excited!!! Gunna get me a cowboy!! haha!! JK!! maybe... haha Anyways I will be in the Pre- Veterinarian program after my first year in the dorms, I am going to get a house near the school because it's cheaper only if I hate the dorms. After my 4 years there I plan to further my education into becoming a Marine Veterinarian. I reallllllllyyyyyyy want to do surgery on a whale, shark, dolphin, or fish!!! REALLLLLYYYY BAD!!! But anyways, that's all for now.

THE GREAT ESCAPE :o

Once upon a time...

There were 3 Gremlins named Herman, Sherman, and Jose. Herman and Sherman were brown and Jose was white and black. They all had long arms kind of like monkeys. To get where they were going they used their super long toes to hold on the ceiling because they weren't allowed on the carpet. One day Sherman got a wild hair and he got on the carpet! His owner made him and his brothers go outside for their punishment and if you know anything about Gremlins they hate outside because they hate to get dirty or tan their skin! Ha So anyways they are all outside and the dog catcher comes!!! They started to panic and scream! AHHH!!! Their little hearts starting beating really hard like they were about to have a heart attack!! The dog catcher drove passed them and didn't seem to notice them. Jose took a sigh of relief. Then Herman like the big baby he is; started to scream AGAIN! AHHHHH!!!!!! The dog catcher backed up and got out of his truck. Sherman and Herman were all hiding behind Jose. Jose crying and kicking at the dog catcher got put in the cage. Then, Herman and Sherman got in different cages. It was soon dark as they laid on the cold hard ground, wishing they never got on the walls; they cried more. The place they were at is called BAD BAD ANIMALS, it is on this Island you have to get on a boat to get out there. There is lots of seaweed and fish in the waters. Anyways; Herman decided to sing a song so maybe his owner would hear him even though he's across town. All 3 sang jingle bells. It didn't work.:( So, the next morning after being fed horrible people food they decided it was time to plot THE GREAT ESCAPE.... Their plan was to let it get dark and they would swim the only problem was that Jose couldn't swim... Sherman said he would let him hang on to his toes if it meant they could go home. As nightfall came they figured out how to unlock their cages. After unlocking them and being really sneaky they got to the door they opened it and they got out without the guard waking up then, the door slammed and woke up the guard!! The 3 ran and jumped in the water; Jose nearly drowning grabbed Sherman's toes. As they swam through the beastly waters dodging the seaweed and gremlin eating fish, they made it to land. All tired from the 29 mile swim they began to walk home. They didn't walk for long because it was cold so they started to sprint home. They began to see signs of them being missing. They knew they were almost home untilll HONNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKK!!!! Screeching tires and the horn BLLAARRRINGG they turned and seen only head lights and wham!!! They got hit by a car!! No one survived the crash and the man in the car well... it was their owner, he died too!

But it's okay only because this story is a fake as it gets!!!

Homecoming

I love homecoming. I love getting a mum and giving a garter to the guy. My mum this year is sooooo pretty it's from Kolton Harris (Ko Ko). I made his garter:) This years homecoming is my very last high school homecoming. :( No it's all good and I'm super excited because my family is all going to be here. The only thing I am worried about is marching tonight. 2 reasons: Reason 1- it's going to be unbelievably cold and 2- I don't know my ending spot to the drum solo. Oh well I guess it will all work out. I hope this homecoming will be the very best.

Swine Flu Anyone?

Swine Flu is found in pigs. So, kissing a pig isn't the smartest thing to do right now. It's a big concern to people have no or low immunity to this virus.This means the virus has the potential to spread quickly around the world. It also may be more difficult to treat than the usual, seasonal human flu viruses.

Symptoms:

• Fever above 100.4 °F
• Cough
• Sore throat
• Headache
• Chills
• Muscle aches
• Diarrhea
• Vomiting

Treatment:

Most people can get over Swine Flu without doctor treatment. You will probably get prescribed to an antiviral drugs if you can not get well.

I think this virus is stupid. They made a huge deal about like shutting down the school to clean it because too many people were sick; now they are just brushing it off like it's nothing!!! Grrr... :/ It's stupid.

Beowulf goes Technical

1. Beowulf- Black Berry

2. Higlac- Itouch Ipod

3. Hrothgar- Dell Notebook (RED)

4. The Danish Watchman (the one who questions Beowulf and his men when they reach shore)- Tape Recorder

5. Grendel- Ipod

6. One of the Whitebeards (Hrothgar's men who stood at the edge of the lake waiting for Beowulf to come up from his battle with Grendel's Mother) - Google Earth

7. Grendel's Mother - Plasma Television

8. Wiglaf - Touch Screen Computer

9. One of the Soldiers who betrayed Beowulf when he was battling the Dragon - Twitter

10. One of the Soldiers who rode a horse around "Beowulf Tower" during the funeral of Beowulf - An indestructible phone

*The Wrath of Grendel

One late night Grendel was on jamming out to his ipod. He was so frustrated because he wasn't invited to the large get together. Finally, when Hrothgar got off his Dell, he fell asleep. Grendel had the nerve to go eat the ones that got invited.

*The Coming of Beowulf

Beowulf got a text on his Black Berry Storm saying that the town was in desperate need of help. So him and his 14 soldiers loaded up and went to save the town. The Danish Watchmen at the tower ask who they were and why they were there. He used his new high tech recorder and recorded their every word. Then, he let them by.

*The Battle with Grendel

Grendel got one of their men and Beowulf ripped off Grendels arm and then he hung it from the ceiling, to show that he is dead. While this happened Grendels mom was watching her plasma screen television and seen what happened.

*The Monsters' Lair

During the night Grendel's momma kidnapped and killed Hrothgar's closest friend and carries off the arm of Grendel.

*The Battle With Grendel's Mother

Beowulf went to the lake to kill the Water monster. One of the white beards sat at the edge waiting for Beowulf, while waiting he decided to get on Google Earth and watch him. Wiglaf was on his touch screen computer surfing the web, too.

*The Last Battle

While Beowulf was king he got really old about 88 and this dragon came and he had to battle it. He had a solider that betrayed him because he was to busy on Twitter to help.

*The Spoils

Together, Beowulf and Wiglaf kill the dragon. Beowulf became very injured and wasn't going to live so his last wants and needs were the treasures that the dragon was guarding.

*The Farewell

It took 10 days to build the place where Beowulf's ashes would be. During the ceremony of Beowulfs passing there were horses riding around the place. While riding one of the soldiers dropped their indestructible phone and the horse stepped on it and surprisingly it was still just fine.

*The end*

Years from now..

Years from now.... I want a huge house. 6 or 7 rooms sounds good with 4 bathrooms. I want the master bathroom to have the claw feet bathtub. I want the kitchen to be tile floors with red and black appliances. I want my living room to be all brown, western things, with the big sofas and recliners. The rooms will be all different colors. I have 4 dogs so they will need their own room to tear stuff up and have all their toys because they have a million. Their room will be a turquoise with brown paw prints going around the walls. I want a 7 foot underground pool, too. Now my job, I will be a Marine Mammal Vet. That is someone who takes care of all the water animals, nurses them back to health, and then sets them free. I really want to become active in getting the Chinese to stop whale hunting their goal is to kill like 600,000 whales a year so I want to be active in stopping that. My family: I plan to be married and have maybe 2 kids. I don't really like little kids so I'm not so sure how well I would handle kids messing up all my hard earned stuff. My husband if I end up married will love me for me, he will be really cute, and have the best personality. :) I really hope I keep my looks and my figure!! I do believe that when I'm older I will still have the same morals: No drinking, no smoking, and No drugs. My parents have defiantly shown me how the real world will be, I don't expect to have things handed to me when I move away. I want to work for everything, that way I can say yes that's mine and I worked for it. On my weekends I may come see my family, swim at my house, or go out of town. One major vacation I want to take when I'm older is a cruise. Maybe if I get married we could go on a cruise. You never know what lies ahead so we will just have to see. This however, is my plans in my next 20 years.

Who packed my Parachute.

1. My mom

2. My step dad

3. Clay

4. J.R.

5. Ashley

6. Keitha

♥

Out of the six my mom has defiantly packed my parachute the most. She has taught me life long values. My mom always gives me reasons to not quit or give up on anything or anyone. She stands behind my every move, even if I am wrong, she'll still be there, and most importantly she hasn't ever left me for any reason. When the times got hard she was still there. I love her and she has packed the biggest portion of my parachute. :)

My expectations of being a Senior

My expectations of being a senior is that I will get good grades and be in as many functions as I can. I want to make sure my resume stands out to colleges therefore, I must do and get good things. I learned from my brother that being lazy your senior year gets you no where. I expect for myself to get as many scholarships as possible. My very last expectation is to make the last memories of high school the best memories.
