Final

1. Some work I have done this quarter in class are lots of poetry, a couple journal entries  I have in my journal, and lots of "t charts." I like making those. I found out that poetry is my favorite type of writing, especially the free verse kind. I like that because I don't have to rhyme everything. I also enjoyed the journal entries because I could express myself without being criticized. I really like that.

2. A couple books I have read this quarter were Go Ask Alice for the hundredth time the Crank series again, and lately Cryer's Cross. It is really great so far! First book, Go Ask Alice is about a girl who moves away and starts using drugs. She says she won't touch them ever again but fails. and at the end she is dead from an over dose. No one is sure if she was drugged or if she did it on purpose. The second book I read was really a series of three books. Crank, Glass, and Fallout. These books were amazing, after I picked it up, I didn't put the books down. The series is about a girl named Kristina, or Bree. (she goes by both in the book) And she is introduced to meth. And this book explains the downward spiral of her life. The last book I read was  Cryer's Cross It was pretty good. I liked it, and it had some cool twists in it.This book was about a girl who's boyfriend went missing and she wasn't sure where he was, so she went out and found much more than she was wanting to.
3. Making this blog was pretty cool. I got to make it my very own and it looks nice. I like the way my blog is set up, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I like that I can go on this whenever I want, and even after I graduate, I can go on here, and type my little heart out. I like this very much! I came up with my blogs name because this blog is suppose to reflect me, and anything I have to say. So "My story as a blog" sounded good, because the blog is about me. I would like anyone to read the work I have done. I enjoy when people are correcting my work to make it better. It feels great when that happens. I definitely continue to use the blog, and I will write about anything that comes to my head. I like to think on the spot when I write, simply because I feel more creative that way.
4. Lots of things are in my journal, some very secretive things and some very open and I wouldn't care to share with some. I would let anyone read this journal as long as I trusted them and knew they wouldn't criticize it or mock me. I hate when people do that. I will use this in the future because I like to write out how I feel because it calms me down pretty well. I can write about anything and I certainly will. I enjoy writing, more than you know. 
5. This entry is one I did when I was really upset about a lot of things.
     
   
   The window is clear,
   nothing can beat this,
   much better than bliss.
   
   Something happened,
   the clouds cover the sky,
   my high is gone
   something went wrong...
   
   
   One little argument,
   led to all this violence,
   without a hero in sight.
    
6. i have found what you are like:
                             (the sunshine)
                                who brightens up my life,
   
   

   
   

                                        mornings are full of light and glee
                                (my love you) warm me up from a bitter world
                    (you are the) light that guides me through this dark cold world.
           (always) you are there (even when it is dark out)
   for you (my love) are my sunshine.
   
    

7. I don't really plan on having a career with writing creatively, but I might want to make a book down the road. I like the creativity this class gives to me. I feel like I can do any form of writing if I can do creative simply because I have to get my brain flowing when I write something creative, or anything in general! This form of writing differs from any other form of writing because there are no rules, no restrictions. That is wonderful if I may say so myself!
    
8. Thank you very much for this wonderful quarter Mrs. Fraser! It was amazing! Have a wonderful next quarter, and make sure you have lots of fun! This class was great, you all are GREAT writers, even when some have writers block!

Lost

Day 1

We left the baren land and now we are on our way to the great fruitful land that the leader was talking about.

Day 63

Three more died today... Heat exaution is getting us all. Everyone is wanting tio find this land now. We have been out here for months, and still nothing. Everyone is way too skinny and it is sickening to look at. No one believes that we made the right decision.

Day 87

I think the leader got us lost...

Day 109

There is only two of us left. We need to find help.. I don't know where we are, but I feel like we have been walking in circles.

Day 200

My best friend died... And so now must I

Perfectly flowing.

swimming fish in the water.

Peaceful and pretty.

Three more sleepless nights,

all because of you and me.

Three more dreadful fights.

Bed time is nearing,

cant wait to hit that pillow.

Cover your bodies,

with a giant blanket.

Sleepy tired sore, and more.

Music and Writting

My favorite song is hard to pick. It is between two choice, one, Float On by Modest Mouse, or two, Party Song by Blink 182. I love both of these songs because they have a lot of meaning to me. Float On became my favorite because that song always cheers me up. It makes me relax, and calm down when I'm about to rip someones head off. The second song Party Song is my favorite as well because I always pretend that they are singing to me. Especially when I saw them in concert. I almost died when they sang that song. I tuned out everyone and pretended that they were singing to me. It was great!

My taste in music has changed so much over the past couple of years. I use to only listen to pop and a wee bit of rap. But nothing offensive. Now all I listen to is country music and every once in a while I'll listen to pop.

Without music, my life would be quiet. I wouldn't be able to calm down by the grace of a song. I would be depressed and I'm sure all the artist would be depressed because that is a way they cope too.

 

The music I think needs to be off this planet is Rap. I hate it. I hate how vulgar it is towards women and how a lot of women are okay with it makes me want to scream. Women are more than a piece of meat, and women need to stop making themselves that low. Another form of music i dislike would be electronic. I hate that music because it has no talent what so ever. All it is, is someone on a computer making different noises. which is dumb and talentless.

Something that music can only do for me is mellow me out. I can calm down really fast with music but on my own to calm down it takes a long, long time. Simply because I'm not distracted from the reason I'm upset..

Daydreaming....

So what, I'm a day dreamer! Some day dreams i always have are what life will be like when I'm older and moved out with a husband and kids. My dream always consist of Benjamin, as my husband, and lately i've been thinking of ways we will have our wedding. I think of all the pretty flowers, and everyone smiling. I can't wait til that day. When i'm in a beautiful white dress and my hair pinned up very nicely. Benjamin would be standing there with tears in his eyes. Oh my goodeness I want that day to happen so bad. It sounds so romantic. I also daydream about having kids. I want them so bad. I want two or three. Two boys and a girl. I want the girl to be the middle child. I already know the names of two of the kids. The first boy would be named Robert Shane Edwards, and the girl will be named Caitlyn Faith Edwards. Something like that. I love that thought. Now I 'm in a great mood.

Dan In Real Life

Questions:

2) Three tips I would give parents are don’t be overprotective, because the child will either rebel or the child will be afraid of everything. The second tip would be act dumb, what I mean by this is if you see something that isn’t too bad, don’t say anything about it. The third tip would be never give into bad behavior. Never let them win because they are throwing a fit.

18) I know a couple funny pick up lines, not really ones that work, because they never worked on me. The first one I heard that was pretty funny was “do you know how much a polar bear weighs? No? Enough to break the ice. Hi, I’m Emily” Another one is “hi there, does this smell like chloroform to you?” How awful right, I mean they obviously wont work on a girl, or boy. I wonder if anyone actually use those lines to pick up girls or guys.

26) When Marty says that love is an ability, not a feeling I kind of sort of believe it. I believe it because love is difficult. I have to admit, I don’t always feel love for my parents (as bad as that sounds) but I always love them still. It is always hard to admit to the feeling of love for me, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have the ability to.

30) I am a terrible bowler. I am lucky if I get a 100. I usually get anywhere in-between a 50-70.  Which is really awful. I went bowling last night, and I never made it to 100, and my boyfriend got like 125 each game. We played like eight games too..
