Love


there are many ways to say i love you. English- I love you. German- ich liebe dich. Italian- ti amo. Spanish- te quiero. Portuguese- eu te amo. and the list goes on and on! one thing many people don't know..is how to show someone you love them. people ask, "How much do you love me?" well, that isn't always an easy question to answer. "More then the moon loves the stars!" well thats a good one. "More then life it self." well that's a little drastic. the point is that they are all just words. words are only words. they mean nothing. Now i'm not saying that they don't mean what they say. i'm only saying that you shouldn't just throw yourself at any guy who says they love you. it's only high school and we won't even see most of these people after we graduate. there are very few 'chilhood sweathears' anymore. so don't just settle on one guy. don't give up anything for any guy. and persue your dreams full force! We shouldn't need to worry about getting our hearts broken at 16, 17, 18 years old. it's all one big game. sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and other times you lost. miserably. i don't understand why us girls put ourselves through this. we find a guy and fall in love with him. only to be hurt. we fall in love to quickly. it is the biggest mistake a girl can make. Live life. don't just live it for a guy. live it for you. live it to persue your dreams. live it to see the world. live life and make yourself happy. when we are in our 20's we can worry about love. right now. live life to the fullest. and it doesn't matter who says what to who about anything. are you happy? THAT is all that matters. :) <3

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1)Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Harry Potter was an orphan living with his horrid aunt, uncle, and cusin (duddley). On his 11th birthday a man comes to the house to tell harry that he is a wizard and takes him to go to school at Hogwarts. Here harry meets his two best friends (Ron & Hermione) and learns about how his parents didn't die in a car crash like his aunt and uncle have led him on to believe. Apparently, when harry was young, his parents fought against a dark force naed Lord Voldimort (an extremely powerful dark wizard). The love Harry's parents showed when fighting against the Dark Lord in order to save Harry made it so that when Voldimort tried to kill Harry that night; a peice of Voldimort attached itself to Harry leaving only a lightning bolt shaped scar on Harry's head. Now Harry is the only one who can stop him. However, Voldimort lost his body and is now forced to find someone to attach his soul to. There is something called the sorcerer's stone and if voldimort gets ahold of it, he can get his body back. Harry fights a 3-headed dog, a human/deadly chess match, and vines that will strangle you to death if you don't relax your body. When he reaches a magic merrior it shows him what his heart desires most. He wants the stone befor voldimort gets it so he can't hurt Harry or anyone else again. The merrior puts the stone in his pocket as harry turns around he sees his defense against the dark arts teacher (Quirll). Voldimort has attached himself to the back of Quirll's head. When Voldimort gets close to Harry, Harry's scare begins to cause him drastic pain. Harry fights off Quirll but sadly becoming unconcious in the end. He wakes up to the head master by his bedside in the hospital wing. The head master explains that the stone has been properly distroyed. In the end everything is ok.....for now..

confusion


Left or Right? Up or Down? Good? Bad? This? That? These are questions we face everyday in life and sometimes we answer them like it's nothing. Little do we know that some questions cann affect our entire lives. We need to take the time to think, "how will this decision affect my life?" ometimes the deciions are miniscule such as,"should i eat a cookie?" if i dont- i dont i taste it's sugary goodness. and i don't gain weight. if i do- i get the yummy taste and i get fat. However, some decisions are majorly important and can change your whole life if you aren't careful even though it may not seam like it at the time. Such as, "should i study for the SAT's?" if i don't- i get a ow grade and get into a bad college and get a bad job and ive in middle class all my life and hang out with my friends right now. or i do- i get a good grade, get into a good college, get a good job an don't hng out with my friends till after the SAT's. so you see, the decisions we make in everyday life can affect our entire futures. so think bfore you act. and becareful when making decision. becaue you od end up regretting alot an being pretty unhppy.

different yet the same?


Sometimes you find friends in the most unlikely of places. You befriend people who are nothing like you and your differences only bring you closer. She is TRAGICLY BEAUTIFUL and well, i guess you could say i'm BEAUTIFULY TRAGIC. She was Glinda when we did the wizard of oz. I was the wicked witch of the west. She likes pink. Ilike green. She is blonde and i'm brunett. She has long hair and i have short hair. She is Irish and i am Italian. She likes english and i like math She likes cheetah print and i like zebra print. She istall and iam short she is prissy princess girly girl and i am a punk rocker. We are nothing alike. Yet, our opposites attract. We love to perform. we have 2 ear peircings. We are major clutses (her morethen me). and we have a common problem. our loves...don't love us. we have agreed to help eachother no matter what. because we both know how the other feels. We are able to work together in ways we didn't even think possible. Who ever said opposites attract,they didn't know how right they were. Me and her usually agree on somethings but other things we dissagree making good conversation and interesting stories. This isthe beginging on a BEATUIFULY STRANGE friendship :)

Friends. Family. Happiness


Well, I was just in a show but what else is new? I've been in shows before. Well, this wasn't just a show. This show changed my life. This show was the Wizard of Oz. I was the Wicked Witch (the part suited me well I think). Not only did this show show me what is really important in life and set me up for a bright future, but it also showed me how many friends I truly have. Durring this show I realised that I wasn't truly happy with who I was with and what was happening around me with that person. I needed to stand up for my family and myself. I did and he didn't like it. So I left for the better. Sometimes it upsets me. But then I realise how much happier I am now that he is out of my life. Not to mention I met a guy who treats me like a princess, fragile china doll, he treats me like I am his world. It is truly incredible. Everytime he kisses me, I smile. He was the Lion in our show. The witch and the lion....weird.....I know. But he makes me happy, treats me well, and he gives me butterflies. I think leaving the one who disrespected me and my family, never appriceating what I did for him, was the best thing I ever did for myself. I am finally happy. <3

Leo

Leo isn't just a cat. He is my best friend. Not only is he my best friend, but he is perrrrrrrfect! "Leo came to us. Not the other way around," my mother likes to say. She went outside to water her flowers when she saw him sitting on our neighbor's pourch. "You don't want to go there. They have dogs!" she calmly exclaimed to the black and white, slim, feline resting under a chair. After he noticed my mother talknig to him he quickly ran over obviously begging for attention. My mother came in to get me and my sister. We gave the cat some attention as well as tuna and water. After we left the food for him we went inside. The cat however, decided to stay and spend the night on the pourch. Later that night, my step dad looked out the window to check on the cat and noticed a white cat sneaking up behind it. Pete quickly ran out the door to scare the white cat away. It worked and in fear for his safty, my step dad brought him in. We named (her) Mia. Supprisingly though when we took Mia to the vet, we found out Mia was actually a Leo. :/ oops.
Leo has always been by my side ever since we brought him in. He always wanted to be around my and on my lap and at the foot of my bed or curled up next to/on me. He is very loving and is always there for me when i need him. He is there through break ups and deaths. he is there durring the good and bad times and always with me. Mom says he is my cat because he took to me the best. He is very outgoing and greats guests in our home with a friendsly rub up against their legs. He loves attention and is no longer slim and slender. Nope. He is pleasantly plump and i love him! ^_^ . Leo is a black and white, long haired, plump, male cat and he is my best friend.

Darwin


Charles Darwin went to Cambridge to receive his Bachelor of Arts in 1831. In that same year, on December 27th, Darwin left on the ship 'The Beagle'. He explored the southern parts of South America. On Darwin's way to Bahia Blanca, he started to see a marvelous variety of wildlife. In the swamps, he saw animals such as black-necked swans, ducks, cranes, and colorful snakes. Darwin would draw the different plant and animal life he saw.

Darwin wrote in his notebook, "every part of this world is habitable! whether lakes of braine, or those underground ones hidden beneath volcanic mountains, or warm mineral springs, or the wide expanse and depths of the ocean, or the upper regions of the atmosphere, and even the surface of perpetual snow- all support living things." The Beagle set off again and stopped breifly at Port Desire and St. Julian. He noticed the different minerals in the soil here and layers on fossil rock far from the sea line.

Darwin spent fourteen months in the west of South America. He wanted to 'solve the puzzle' of the mighty Andes mountains. As he started his journey, up one side of the Andes and down the other, he started noticing birds. He noticed beaks, colorization, patterns, and the sounds they made. He also took interest in how the earth's crust was shaped.

Later, Darwin explored the Galapagos islands. He focused mainly on birds here. he sketched how the birds looked and acted. He noticed different breads and characteristics. In November of 1859, he published his drawings and ideas pluss his theorys in a book called THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES which explained what he calls, as we all know today, the evolution theory.
