mmmmmmmmmm turkey!!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone! I am so ready to eat a lot of food. =D yay!!!!!

Haha!

The other night I was talking to my friend Tyler and he started saying something about my brother..... Shall we think about this for a second? I don't have a brother!!! So naturally I exclaimed, 'What??' Then he started over and said it again. 'I don't have a brother...' I told him. Now it was his turn. 'What?? Adam isn't your brother??' (Here he is referring to Adam McMillin) 'No, we aren't even related...' I responded as I giggled. I thought it was hilarious because I pretend I'm related to them and then someone actually thought we were! It made my night. =)

The Flight

Stepping quietly over the brook,
She sniffs the air for a sign;
Nibling the blades of dew-sweetened grass,
She then looks up to the sky.

The flight of birds tell her danger is near,
So she looks for a place to hide;
Her movements are quick as she startles at sounds,
Her heart near explodes inside.

Her feet fly fast as a speeding bullet,
Her eyes dart this way and that;
The hedge she calls home around the next bend,
She shall make it home tonight.

To home she flies faster than ever before,
Then she shoots for the clearing ahead;
All the way back to her soft, warm bed,
She knows she'll be safe for the presesnt.

The flight of the deer has ended,
And we look upon her with joy;
There she lays with her two small fawns,
Home is the place she belongs.


This was a project for my writing course last year. Hope you like it. I had fun with it. =)

The Sad Life of a Pencil

I am being picked up again. How rude these people are. They pick me up, squish me between their fingers, and then they press my head against the white stuff I now know as paper. They drag me around until my head feels flat and then they put me inside a great twirling saw to sharpen me up again. Oh how I would love to do it to them. My annoyance at these strange beings is too great to measure.

My Best Friend

I watch him as he interacts with different people. He has a smile and a hug for each. His kindness is beyond anyones. Not a word of malice or anything just plain mean passes through his lips and if ever they do, its rare. He is medium in stature, though as I watch him he looks ten feet tall. His gentleness is genuine and his love for his friends and family is pure. When I am upset he knows just what to say.

He is my near perfect friend.

Writings of Mine

The feel of the rough leather ball under my fingers makes my heart pound with excitement. The rush of adrenaline coursing through me causes me to overheat and perspire. The cheering crowd and shouting coaches cause the excitement to mount. As sweat drips down my face, I pass the ball to my open teamate. The smell and taste of sweat puts me in my comfort zone. I move with ease up and down the court, focused and determind. My shot is on and my passes firm. I block out the cheers of the crowd and all other distractions. This is my game. This is my floor. I and my team shall dominate. The thud of the ball hitting the ground and the swishing of the net as we make the point flood through my senses. My instincts kick in and soon I am blocking shots and stealing passes. I am on tonight! The crowd roars, my teamates cheer, and the coaches yell. This night couldn't get any better. Basketball is my passion and no one will take that away from me.

Party!!!!!

Ugh. My computer is stupid. But anywho, the party was fun. =) I actually felt somewhat pretty. =) The ladies were beautiful and the men were handsome, and everything went well. I'm tired. Goodbye. =)

sigh.....

After this weekend my life will be boring. The past two or three weeks have been filled with parties, activities with friends, rollarcoasters, adding like 2o new friends on facebook..... My my my.... I was a busy little bee. So, this weekend is going to be AMAZING!!!!! Hannah's party is on saturday, I get to spend the night and then I get to see Aron on sunday! Could my weekend be any better? Yes. But thats beside the point and its never going to happen. So I'm going to stop living in my dreams. Back to real life and all of its brutality. Blech... Hannah told me that she thinks there are a lot of guys that like me. But if they like me, why don't they show it? Because what if I like them back? I mean, do I scare people that bad? I know I'm a bit weird, but.... Sigh....

Facebook

Facebook is addictive.

Facebook is fun.

Facebook is where you can find anyone.

From family to friends to long lost strangers,

from badgers to babies laying in mangers....

(Not really..... =P) Hehe! Anyway, I have over 200 friends on facebook and there are a few I've never met but they are in my church so it makes it ok.... I love finding the people I played basketball with over the summer. That summer was one of the best summers ever. When else do you get to play basketball three days a week for who knows how many weeks? And I got to play with a lot of guys which really improved my skill for I didn't want them to regret choosing me for their team. Anywho, My week has been very busy. We started basketball this week and we worked really hard. So naturally I was tired and sore from that, and then on friday I went to six flags. =D yay!!! It was so much fun!!! We saw a lot of people we knew, and the rides were amazing (tatsu was the best) and I really wish I could go back. I wish my friends and I could afford a six flags day, but its so expensive!! And I have no idea who would drive us. Well, I shall move on. Yesterday I went and watched the bestie play volleyball. (great job, bestie!) That was also a lot of fun. =) Today will be EXTREMELY fun. It's the volleyball party so I get to see everyone again! yay! And I get to hang out with some AMAZING people. (aka Kelsi, Maddie, and whoever else wants to join our fun little group.) Well, I shall bid thee farewell for I must go. Adios!

Why am I scared of Obama?

Here's why. Obama wants to raise taxes. Raised taxes= more money to pay which means less money for the family. Obama wants to pull our troops out of Iraq/Afghanistan. Pulling our troops= possible terrorist attacks... Plus I really just don't like him. McCain was more soft-spoken and quieter as to where Obama has a powerful scary man voice. Its not very calming and it doesn't give me any good feelings. Now Bush on the other hand, I always relaxed when I heard his voice. Maybe I'm just scared Christ is going to come before I'm ready and I think that Obama being president is leading up to that. Don't get me wrong, I can't wait till Christ comes, but like most people, I want to live my life. I dont want to leave this world at 18 and not experiance some of the best things in life. Like love, marriage, children, growing old with the people I love.... Obama being president is just a scary thought to me.

So yes....

Obama does scare me. But lately people have been telling me God knows what He's doing and I realized that I wasn't trusting him. So now I'm going to trust him more completely.

Halloween night!!!!!
