My Day Off

Yesterday was a day off for the Festus school district. I decided to have one of my friends over at my house. The friend that I invited was Taylor. We spent the whole night downstairs in my room laughing and watching some movies that I had on DVR. We fell asleep at around 1:45 am the next morning. My parents left to go to work and we got to sleep in til 10:40! When we got up, we went upstairs and watched CSI Miami and Criminal Minds. After being bums for a while we decided to get up and cook lunch. We set the oven to 345 degrees and made some pizza rolls. We waited til they were done and got really excited when we took them out, but we both burned our mouths on them because we didn't wait. The rest of the day was a lazy day but it was worth it. I had a blast!

Earth Day

Yesterday was Earth Day. Earth day is a time to appreciate the planet by helping it out. Many ways to help the planet are to recycle, reuse, plants new trees, or pick up trash around your neighborhood. Recycling is probably the most popular. Most people will recycle paper, aluminum, and glass. They will put large green bins outside their house next to their trash cans. These bins have the nationwide sign for recycling; three arrows in the form of a triangle. My way to help out the world is to pick up trash. I pick up the trash that ends up in our back yard all the time, and I plan to do it more often. This prevents waste from seeping into the ground and destroying the life that it inhabits. Much of our earth needs to be cleaned. Many people can do it. You should join in!

My Sisters

Picture From Here

I do not have any biological sisters. I have two brothers instead. However, I do consider two very important friends to be my sisters. Their names are Catheryn and Stella Anderson. These two really do play a large part in my life. We spend most weekends together doing the not-so-smart ideas that most normal people wouldn't come up with. All ideas are fun, but some don't turn out the way they were planned. We have wrestled in home-made bubble wrap dresses with mustaches drawn on our faces using eye liner. The project was a complete success, but although we had an amazing time ripping bubble wrap dresses to shreds, we soon found out that mustaches made with eye liner were not the brightest idea. We have had dry skin on our faces ever since that day. (About two months!!!) We also go everywhere together. Last weekend we went shopping up at the Mills Mall. We had a blast. It seems that no matter what we do, we always enjoy each others company. Never once since preschool have we gotten in a fight. I have however broken up a lot of fights between my two adorable sisters. (Them being very close in age has a huge disadvantage on their relationship.) I never thought I would become so close to such a klutzy family in my life, but I'm glad I did. They always have my back throughout the middle school breakups, drama, and even the family issues. I couldn't ask for a better second family!!!



My Dream Vacation



This Picture From



If I could go anywhere in the world right now, I would go to the Great Wall of China. This is my dream trip because it is an important historical monument. It was built a very long time ago and is still able to stay strong, proving that all of the hard work that was put into this masterpiece really paid off. On my trip to the Great Wall of China, I would try to get to one of the guard posts. The long and tiring trip up the many steps and forty degree inclines would definitely pay off. These guard posts were patrolled by many brave soldiers trying to protect China. I believe that this is one of the greatest monuments in the world and deserves much more appreciation than it receives. Seeing this historical monument would be an amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience.

If I Looked How I Feel...

If I looked how I feel, I would be a dancer in a big tutu with my hair tied back into a bun. Dancing is my life and everyday at school, I look forward to my classes that I attend after school. People see me walking through the halls doing my tap routines or my individual combinations. When I dance, people normally say that I'm graceful. Therefore, every time dance pops into my head, which is normally about 90% of the day, I see myself in a pink tutu twirling on a big stage in front of judges, instructors, other dancers, and a large audience.

Quack, Quack!

I have the most amazing buddies! We always have so much fun and come up with the most insane stories and sayings. One of the more recent sayings is "Don't squash the quack quack!". This saying came up today when we were in Mrs. Bruns's sixth hour science class. Mailine, Noah, Alyssa, and I were all sitting at the same table. We were working on the current assignment that had to do with M&M's. Our job was to make a pie chart with them to describe what gases are in the atmosphere. After we finished our project, we all started quietly chatting. Mrs. Bruns gave us permission to eat the M&M's and told us that we could save the cups for ourselves. Mailine decided to make a joke and put the small paper cup to her nose. All the sudden, she shouted, "Look! I'm a piggy! Quack, quack!" Everyone just kinda stared at her until she realized what had happened. After that incident wore off, Alyssa took the cup Mailine had used for her pig nose and smashed it. I pointed at her hand and said, "You squashed it!". Nobody really knew where that came from but we all said, "Don't squash the quack quack!" at the same time. It was really funny and left all four of us red in the face for the rest of the hour.
