“Education make a people easy to lead,
but difficult to drive:
easy to govern, but impossible to enslave.”
by: Peter Brougham

1. ‘It is today we must create the world of the future.’ Eleanor Roosevelt
I think that this means that we have to create the world and make it our own and fix our own problems. We have to do things for ourselves, not make other people do it for uzs.
2. ‘Those who do nothing are never wrong.’ Theodore de BouvilleI think that this means that they are never wrong because they never do anything! They just sit there and make people do things for them.
3. ‘Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail’. Ralph Waldo Emerson
I think that this means that you have to do things at your own time and pace. Also, let loose and do something else than what others are doing.
4. ‘Slow down you are going too fast’. Simon and Garfunkle
I think that this means that you have to do things at your own pace. You have to time things just right and let it go, do things your own way.
5. ‘You see things and say ‘Why’? But I see things and say ‘Why not?’ G.B Shaw
This means that you have to look at things and say, “Hey, why can’t that happen? Why can’t we do that??” You have to look at things as though they will change the world.
6. ‘Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss it you will land amongst the stars.’ Les Brown
I think that this means that even if you don’t make it, you can still try.
7. ‘Coming, ready or not!’ Childhood game
This means that life isn’t always easy and that it is going to throw things at you every now and then. Most likely when you least expect it.
8. ‘Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are going to get.’ Forest Gump’s Mother
Personaly, I think that this means that you are never going to know what is going to happen to you in life, that day, year, month, etc. You have to take a risk.
9. ‘There is no risk less way to the future, we must choose which set of risks we wish to run.’ Jay Ogilvy
I think that this means that we have to take risks, even though we don’t want to.
10. ‘Plan to be better tomorrow than today, but don’t plan to be finished’. Carol Ann Tomlinson US Educator
I think that this means that we have to better ourselves, but even when we do that, its not over. You have to keep that up or bring it back down. You have to better yourself.

**** Below is a situation that happens in the lives of middle school students. Read through the whole piece, then reflect and answer the questions at the end.

Mary is an eighth grader and, until recently, pretty popular at school. Lately, she started finding notes in her locker and in her backpack that were really upsetting. The notes were unsigned and mean. They said things like: “ We don’t like how you’re treading on our territory.” “ You act like a bitch.” And even, “ You better watch out because we’re watching you…”
Mary had no idea who might be sending the notes but she had an idea why. In the last few months she had started accepting invitations to high school parties. She had also fooled around with a couple of sophomore guys. She had a feeling that the notes were from some of the high school girls. She knew how gossip got around and how mean other people said the sophomore girls were.
What was she supposed to do? Almost every day this week she received a note. She felt angry, scared, and hurt. She showed the notes to two of her friends. One of them said that whoever is sending them was probably just jealous and she should just ignore them. The other friend said she should show them to a teacher.
Mary felt like there was no good choice. If she tried to ignore the notes she was afraid they would just continue, and she was not only scared, she was mad. She wanted them to stop. But if she turned in the notes, she was sure the whole school would find out and she would probably have to name names as to who she thought was sending them. If the gossip was bad now, wouldn’t’ it be worse then?
First off, I think that she should tell her mom, teacher, etc. No one deserves to be put through that. I would someone because I know how much it hurts and I would be angry and would want someone there to help me. I don’t really know what would happen. Yeah, people would probably gossip about her but I don’t know if she would get backlashed… Gossip hurts and it can hurt people too. Gossip can make people commit suicide or even worse… Yes I have been in a situation like this. It really hurt too. When it happened to me, we moved out of my school but I still talked to people about it… I think people gossip because they are bored. They want some action. Yes, I have gossiped about someone and I regret it now because me and that person are very close friends now. I think I did it because I wanted to fit in, I was new to the school and I just wanted a friend.

Maria was worried about her good friend Pam. Pam was always talking about how fat she was and what she was trying to do about it. But the truth is that Pam was not at all fat. In fact, she was downright skinny. Since their freshmen year Pam had lost at least 15 pounds. Now, they were juniors and Maria was afraid that Pam had an eating disorder. Maria was also getting frustrated. Where were all the grown-ups? Who was watching out for Pam besides Maria and her friends?
Maria knew that someone from their school had talked to Pam’s parents last year, and that Pam’s mom had gotten angry about the school poking its nose into family business. Pam’s mom claimed that Pam had a dancer’s body and a high metabolism. That was last year. Now things were worse and Maria felt like she was literally watching her friend disappear.
Finally, one Monday afternoon Maria had had enough. As she watched Pam take three diet pills and eat four grapes for lunch she decided she had to do something. As helpless and scared as she felt now, how would it compare to how she would feel if Pam actually ended up in the hospital…or worse? Pam would be furious if she found out the Maria had talked to someone behind her back. So, Maria had two problems–should she tell someone how bad things were, and if so, whom should she go to?
I think that she should tell someone about her concern. She should tell her quidence counculer or someone she trust. She should tell Pam. If Pam was a real friend, she would understand Maria’s concern of her friend. Pam could end up in the hospital or die from not eating enough! I don’t think that her mom should let her daughter not eat that much. It isn’t far. The mom and other people and other parents should get involved. Pam is suffering. I agree strongly with Maria about telling someone. Her friend could DIE!! I think that she should tell other people like students, family, friends, etc. so they can get involved. Pam’s mom could be arrested because this could be something like child neglect. I think that if Maria told someone and Pam asked her, she should tell the truth to her. If Pam was her friend, she would listen and take it into concederation. I used to think that I was fat. I am now 12 years old and weigh 96 pounds. I am so lucky that I had my friends to help me out. I would NEVER make the same choice again. I am happy with my weight, but maybe I should add more on to me. I am under the weight limit. Well, thats what my doctor said!

http://gardenofpraise.com/leaders.htm
I think that a leader should be someone that has power but uses it wisley. Like, instead of building a McDonalds, should do a charity or food/ money drive for the poor. They should help the poor people by providing jobs for everyone so then those people can make it on their own.
I think that a leader should have qualities like… helping people, listening to the people, helping them out, providing enough for the whole country or whatever they rule, etc. They should be able to gain the trust of the people.
Even though he died, I look up to Steve Irwin. He showed people not to live in fear of animals. He taught us that we should do our best in the world to rescue them, and help them. They are helpless and need our help. He taught ME and alot of other people, to see the beauty in everything. He was a great person. R.I.P. Steve Irwin! ![]()
Hmm… If I was a leader…. I would try and help the people. Like, providing food and shelter for them. I wouldn’t look down on other people, you never now what they will become or do in the future that might be great. I would try my very best to get people to trust me and do my best. I would try and be a leader of somthing small at first, like Guam. Then, move on to greater lengths. Something bigger. More of a challenge! ![]()
i think that I would be a pretty efficient leader. I wouldn’t make promises that I couldn’t keep. I would try my best. I would do everything in my power to make my people happy!!

In computer class, we had to do a project on leaders in history. I did Harriet Tubman, John F. Kennedy, Steve Irwin, Susan B. Anthony, and Spyros Kyprianou. I think that this was fun and interestion way to learn. I really think that this would be a fun way to learn, if we did it in groups of 2 or 3 and had more leaders!

In study skills, we are learning how to do research on the computer. Our computer teacher gave us 3 research links for our blogs. ![]()

I recommend these sites to people who need help with research!
Today started out like any normal day… well, not so normal. I woke up in a bad mood, found out that one of my friends was upset by something, was late for my Paws-4-Life meeting because my little brother forgot his lunch at home! In study hall, I was really mad because I didn’t eat lunch and was being teased. Then computer came. I was coming up from study hall and when I got to the room outside, started talking to my friend. Then, I heard our teacher yelling for us to form a straight line. I then found out that some of my classmates were hiding peoples bags and stuff. When we got inside, our teacher talked to us about apathetic and people who ARE apathetic. He told us storises about apathetic people. Thankfully, I didn’t see!
As many people know, Steve Irwin died September 5th, 2006. He was stabbed through the heart by a stingray. He was doing a dive research thing underwater when he got stung. It is really sad and I cried when I found out. At least he died doing what he loved, I though. Steve Irwin was 44 years old and had a wife and 2 kids. It was a tragedy that will probably effect the lives of many people.
In computer class, we watched this DVD called Animusic 2. It was…. Interesting. Two guys(Wayne Lytle and Dave Crognale) produced Animusic to show what you can do with animation and music. You can put the two things together and produce something nice. There were 8 different musical pieces on one DVD! Some of them were proformed by robots, some were just musical instruments. I thought it was really good. I was… different and not something that I would have EVER thought of doing. For me, it is really hard to do those things. I think that animation and music DO go together! Well, that is if they do the animation and music together!![]()

Our computer class had to go to a website called personalitylab.org. It was really wierd, but we had to take a personality test. The quiz is called, “The California Child Q-Set”. There was 5 different basic dimensions called Extaversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness to Experience. There were two “scores” that you could get, High and Low. I got high on all of mine.
In the Extraversion part, I new some of what it said was true, just like for my other ones. The Extraversion part said that I was outgoing and sociable, perfer to be around people, more popular, etc. It also said that I was more prone to cigarettes, alcohol, and stuff like that.
Agreeableness, I got a really high score which surprised me alot because I didn’t think that I was that agreeable!! I am willing to help people, strangers, etc.
Conscientiousness, It means that I am responsibe and organized. I am NOT organized. I think I am responsible…..
In Neuroticim I also got a high score. Neuroticim means that I was sensitive, emotional, prone, etc. I new about the sensitive and emotional part! The reason I am like that is because I have had a lot of bad things happen in my life…
And finally, Openness to Experience. It means that I like new experiences, am imaginative, getting better grades, etc. I don’t think that I am at the grades part…
Well, I learned alot about myself!! I didn’t know that I was more prone to cigarettes and alcohol and stuff!!
Should Students be aloud to bring cell phones to school?
I think that it should be because if students are in an emergency, they can contact there parents right away. Or, if they need to go somewhere to work on a project, they can call and say, “I need to go to ***** house to work on my project.” Then, parent know where they are. Also, if a parent gets into an accident, someone can call the cell phone and tell them, that way they know. Also, if their parent is going to be late picking them up, they can call and tell them. But, it would be bad too. People could call the students phone during school or someone could steal it. Cell phones could interupt classes. I still strongly believe that cell phones should be allowed in school.
In English, we had to read a short story called “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi” and I personally didn’t think that it was all that good. It was about animals that fought all the time and I don’t like it when animals fight. Even though they were mostly snakes….
Today in English, we went over our homework. We also read a story. Well, the story was about the homework. We had to do a plot diagram on the story, “Riki-Tiki-Tavi”.
It was about a mongoose. It was a really weird story. We also had to do vocab for the story. It was… really weird.
Well, It all started out on a very long and boring plane ride. It was 6 A.M. in the morning and I was saying good-bye to my mom and brother for the first time. I was going to be gone from my mom for 2 months. It was the longest time I had ever been away! I was going to Virginia to see my family. I had been living on Guam for 1 year. I was very excited and scared. I was going to be on a plane for like, 26 hours!! It was very, very, VERY long!! I had a lay-over in Hawaii for an hour, a lay-over in Houston for 3 hours and 30 minutes, and then, I had to go to Baltimore. I’ll explain it all later.
Well, in Guam, I was saying good-bye to my mom and brother. Then, the flight-attendent called me to bored the plane. I was so freaked out. I was crying until the plane took off from the ground. The plane ride was like, 9 hours long. There was a lady who sat next to me because she would have had to move away from her family. I slept most of the way, but when I was awake, I played some games like Caveman and listened to music and watch T.V.
Then, I finally got to Houston and was picked up by the flight lady. Then, I went to a kids room and “watched” Pirates of the Carribean. I called my Aunt there and fell asleep. Well, my plane came early so I couldn’t sleep for long.
My next stop was Baltimore. You might be thinking, “Why are you flying to Baltimore if you are going to Virginia?” Well, it is because I was going and surprising my cousins. I was supposed to go June 27th but went June 7th. Well, the plane ride to Baltimore was very tiering. And when I was asleep, someone poured there drink into my seat!!! It made me sooo… mad!! Well, we finally got to Baltimore. I saw my aunt and she ran up and squeezed me soo… hard!! Then, my aunt, her best friend, and I pilled into the car and went home to Virginia.
When I got to my aunts house, my cousin didn’t recognize me until I said “Hi Britney!” then, she squeezed me.
The rest of my summer was pretty boring. There is nothing to talk about in it…!
Well, my plane-ride home was pretty… weird. I sat next to some weird people…! On my last flight, I sat next to this little kid and we talked for a while. Then, he played my Nintendo DS. So, I slept!!
When we got to Guam, my mom did’nt recognize me. I was looking for her in the crowd and I thought that she forgot. :( Then, she came running at me, just like my aunt. I got to sit on the baggage thingy. In the car, I slept and had Taco Bell! Anyway, there is nothing else really.
Thank you soooo… mucho for that nice post! I can’t find good icons but I hope this one will cover for it!! I can’t get it! I’ll show you later!

If I don’t stop posting(or writing this) I will ramble on and on and on. *Laughs* I can’t wait! Today… we are going running on the beach! I am going to have so…. much fun! *Gets to happy…*![]()
As you all probably know, it is almost Spring Break! Thats right! That means more mall time, friends, and maybe, I might go to the state(or Hawaii to visit my best friend!) I think that it would be soooooooo…. cool! I hope that the pie day will be fun! Oh… That is were we get to Pie Our Teachers! Tomorrow, we get to go running on the beach! That is for cross-country(which I am in), then we get to go to tapioca world! I hope it is fun because I have never been there before! It is also… St. Patrick’s day! Going to a religious school, it is very big! I hope it is fun! I have my whole spring break planned out! So watch out people at the mall and everywhere else I go… Because Fawn’s coming!
This was made up in my head. Well, not the spring break, pie day, or St. Patricks day, or the Cross- country thing!
This is a test post! It is just a little thing with cute anime!

O.K. They work! For more… Well, I can’t tell you the site so…. Sorry!
1. What has been your experience so far in this one quarter of computers?
Well, we have all basically had the same experience. The bad commens, post, etc. We have basically all been through the same thing!
2.What have you learned so far about computers and blogging?
I have learned that it is still good to use manners on the computer and internet. I know alot of people in my family who don’t use manners when on blogs or writting e-mails.
3. What lessons in life have you learned during our blogging activities?
To stay nice and polite on the internet. And if you post something bad, people can trace you and hunt you down.
4. What do you think blogging is for in your life as a 6th grader?
I think it is so we can learn about how to be polite on the internet. We can also use it to express our feelings and tell others how we fell, in a nice way.
5. Will you be using blogs even after this class? Why? Why not?
Yes. I think blogging is important and that it is really good for us. We are learning to use manners on the internet and etc.
6. What can you tell others about what you learned in this class?
I can tell others that I have learned to be aware of what people do on the internet. I can also tell people that I can blog with out hurting other peoples feelings.
7. What has been your experience so far in this one quarter of computers?
People do bad things. People can post bad comments and post and stuff.
8. What have you learned so far about computers and blogging?
Well, really, not that much. I have done alot of blogging assiments in my other classes back in the states and I have my own blog site. I have been around computers my whole life so…Really, not that much.
9. What lessons in life have you learned during our blogging activities?
Again, nothing much. My mom has taught me to be polite… Even over the internet. She has given me examples on how much it affects the other person if you put somthing rude!
Thanks mom!
10. What was a memorable moment for you in the class?
When we found out who posted the bad comment. It was really surprising!
As you all probably know, the end of 3rd quarter is coming up. You have seen my other questions(and answers) and if you haven’t… It is titled “Experience with the Computer!” Here is one question that was not included:)
Okay, well, the advise that I would give(Well, the 3 things of advise!) would be, one: Don’t post bad comments unless you really want to get in trouble!
Two: Always be honest! Don’t make up lies about someone just because you can.
And three: When you write a post(like this is), always make it something that won’t get you in trouble!
I am going to add a fourth one. Always use manners! DONT WRITE LIKE THIS! That means you are yelling at someone! Also, don’t use symbols like this in scentences!: Yelling @ some1 is bad! LOL! GTG!! That is just annoying and no one understands what it means!
That is some advise that you should follow!
What would you do if a friend pressured you to write a nasty comment? How would you react? What would you do? I know that I wouldn’t do it. I would stand my ground and tell them flat out “NO!!!” Well, how would you feel if you were told that someone in you’r class broke you’r “Golden Rule”? Your golden rule was that you could no post a bad comment on anyones site. So how would yo feel? Betrayed if that person was your friend, angry because you couldn’t post anymore comments, or anything else. I would feel a jumble of emotions. Some, I couldn’t even explain! And what would you do to stop it? Tell your teacher? Talk to all your class mates about why it is wrong? Keep an eye on them? I would keep an eye on them. If they started posting a bad comment, then I would tell them to stop and tell my teacher. That is what I would do. You might be thinking, “What if they tell me no to tell? What if they say that they will hurt me if I do?” TELL ANYWAYS! It is better to tell than to keep it all bottled up. If you keep it all bottled up, then it will just want to explode in you! You will want to tell everyone! Tell when it happened, who did it, what name they are using, etc. Follow these and you will be able to keep a happy blogging time! ![]()
In Social Studies… we are doing Podcast! My group is really working hard! It is really fun! We are having alot of fun!
What we are doing in Math… GEOMOTRY! Triangles and that type of stuff! It is really fun!
Well… we are basically doing chemicals. We are also doing things like magnets and stuff. We are doing a science project. Me and my partner are doing ours on “How much salt will it take to make an egg float?” It is really fun cause we get all dirty and stuff. Some people just don’t see how fun it is to play with eggs, water, and salt. *sighs* We just had a test. I hope that I got good! *prays* Um.. we are also doing magnets. Oh. I already said that. Opps!
In English, we are learning about words that sound alike. We are doing some work in class. We have our spelling list to do over our… 4 DAY WEEKEND! Whoo! That felt good! Just had to scream it out! Well… thats about all!
Well… yesterday was….. Valentines Day. I don’t really like Valentines Day. I never have. I just like the candy. Oh well. A late Happy Valentines Day to you all!
This is so cute!
I think that its an imposter!!!!!! It is still cute!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello! This is a wierd picture of me. We didn’t put our faces! It is really wierd.
The site is www.splashblog.com/stjohns2012 and there are more pictures! Cool huh?
I just want to say sorry to Mrs. Naz. I was really disrespectful. I feel really bad. I don’t want my group to feel bad. Bad mood! I was really having a bad day. Thanks for understanding! Again, sorry Mrs. Naz! Sorry for the way that I was!
In Science, the wonderful world of science, we are learning about chemicals! We can make things explode, add things to other things, etc. It is so fun! Our teacher,Mr. Pavesic, always has something to explain. He is basiclly prepared for any question that we throw at him!
Well, in Social Studies, we are learning about Canada. We are learning about Toronto, Nova Scotia, Quebec, etc. We are learning about thier natural resources, how poor they are, etc. We have to do outlines and test. MAN! http://www.anikaos.com/0034-purple-kao-ani/purple-hikaouin.gif
Well, we are learning about geometric shapes. Well, kinda. It is angles, points, line segements, etc. We are learning how to draw these things. That is about it.
Well, in Language Arts, we are learning grammer. We are learning about verbs, nouns, linking verbs, etc. We have had alot of homework on it. We are still doing spelling. There are some really easy words and some hard words. We get spelling words every week. Anyway, this is what we are learning about. We are learning about were to place verbs, nouns, and how to find them in a scentence. Some say that it isn’t important but the truth is that it really is! If we didn’t know were to find verbs and stuff, we wouldn’t be able to explain what we were doing. Action. That is what is mostly in a scentence.
Families in the Gill-Baza Subdivision in Yigo there have about fifty days now to comply with Guam Environmental Protection Agency sewer system rules.
If they don’t, they’ll need to move out. Residents have met many nights since they received the notices of violation last month, and Tuesday evening they met again to hash out their options.
This is really surprising. If they don’t comply with the Enviornmental Protection people, they will have to move out! Where will they stay? How will provide for thier familys? I don’t think that it is far. Of course, I don’t really understand what it is about but I am thinking about all the poor people. Anyway… more later.

I got this quote from blogsaftey.com:
“Avoid getting together with someone you “meet” through a blog unless you are certain of their actual identity. If you do meet them, arrange the meeting in a public place and bring some friends along.”
I really like this quote because my friend met with someone like this without a friend or family member. The man lied and said that he was 14. She agreed to meet him despite the warnings that her family provided. Luckily, they met in a bookstore that was really busy. She is also really good at hurting people so she broke his nose and got away. He is in jail for meeting a minor. It is good to follow this guideline because if this happens, you know what to do. I thank blogsaftey.com and safeteens.com for these guidelines. I hope you visit those websites and learn about the safey!
This post is about abandoned cars that were moved from Nimitz Hill here on Guam. We found this out on www.kuam.com which is the news of Guam. There were 75 cars moved in just three days! This also clears tires and batteries. It is good that the goverment is taking time to do this. Maybe since it is election year, he wants people to elect him again. I don’t think he will though but that is just me! I hope that this trend continues. I think that it is good because there is alot of cars on Guam and it is hurting animals and people when it is here.
”This is just a scenario to illustrate the difficulty that sometimes accompanies choices in our lives. If you have the chance to only save yourself and two out of three other people in an accident (other people: your father, your mother, and your brother or sister), then who would thoe two people be? This is just a scenario and not a real incident. But you have to choose and explain why you made that choice. There are no right or wrong answers, but think about how you explain your choices.” Say that you and you’r family were going down a river on a really nice boat. It is you, you’r mom, you’r dad, and you’r brother or sister. For me, it would be my brother. Then suddenly, the boat turned over. There are only 3 life jackets. You are the only conscious person. There is a rope that can reach the shore so you throw it over. You can only give 2 life jackets to 2 family members. You have one. Who would you give the other 2 too? Me? I would give them to my mom and little brother because my mom has been with me through good and bad times and because my little brother is to little to die. I would attach the life jackets to the rope. Then, I would be holding on to the rope with my mom and little brother with me. I would put them on shore and take of my mom’s life jacket and then go back and get my dad. If I was to late, I would use my mom’s cell phone and call for help. Luckily, I know CPR so i would do that to my mom and little brother. If my mom didn’t have a cell phone, then I would take off my life jacket and my brothers life jacket. Then, do CPR again. When they woke-up, I would give them whatever food and water I could find and then let them sleep. When they woke-up again, we would leave the bank and go home.
Today in Computer Class, we had 3 races. One was to log on to the computer the quickest. The second was who could sign in the fastest. Now there is this one. We have to write the post as fast as possible with no spelling or grammer mistakes. I hope I don’t make any! I lost the first two, but maybe I can win this one! I felt o.k. when I lost the races. They are just for fun!

Guess what? It is the year of the dog! I love dogs! I was born in the year of the dog! *sigh* It is so nice to have it be my year. Well… alot of people were born in the year of the dog. But still! The reason that I love dogs is because I am an animal lover! Even though I have 7 cats(not all mine!) I can still love dogs, right? Some of the things below resemble me in alot of ways! Some of them are not true(cough cough)! I am not stubborn or shelfish! Am I?
Chinese Zodiac - Year of the Dog
The Dog
People born in the Year of the Dog possess the best traits of human nature. They have a deep sense of loyalty, are honest, and inspire other people’s confidence because they know how to keep secrets. But Dog People are somewhat selfish, terribly stubborn, and eccentric. They care little for wealth; yet somehow always seem to have money. They can be cold emotionally and sometimes distant at parties. They can find fault with many things and are noted for their sharp tongues. Dog people make good leaders. They are compatible with those born in the Years of the Horse, Tiger, and Rabbit.
You are honest and faithful.
You can worry too much.
You will make an excellent business person, teacher or secret agent.

Today, there was a Lion Dance at our school. It is a cultural dance that the Chinese preform. There were Chinese people and they dressed up like a Lion Dragon. Well… they put a costume over them. They ran around and music was playing. It was about 5 symbols and a drum. They ran around and then kids gave them red envelopes that had money in them. Then, Dr. Odi held a stick that held a piece of cabbage. After about 20 minutes of the dragon deciding to eat the cabbage, it finally did and then our headmaster, Dr.Odi, and our principle held out thier hands while the dragon was “eating” the cabbage. Then the dragon spit it out and everone(well, not everyone) got a piece. It was to give good luck to us all. And to the school. This happened during the P.E. time.
Today in math class, we had Mr. Ferris. Mrs. LG was sick!
So we played a game. It was boys against girls. The girls won of course!
We also drew pictures and wrote notes(haha!
) Well, thats all for know! More later! ![]()
I have alot of hobbies but if i had to pick one it would be… SINGING!! I love to sing! It makes me feel…. happy. No matter what time of day, how I feel, or anything, I have a song going through my head. And in my room, music is always playing(except for at night!). I love it! It fills me up with joy! I sing with friends, family, in the shower(not really), but I mostly sing when I am alone. I don’t like my voice. People tell me that its really good! I have a hard time believing it though. I like to feel different so I listen to music that no one has heard of! Like…. Bowling For Soup! People know thier songs but sing them so wrong! Others… have never ever heard of them! Wierd huh!? More later!
:)
This is Bowling For Soup. They are my favorite band. You may know thier song 1985. Many of you sing it wrong. They are my band and you can’t take them. Sorry. I love them too much! ♥♥

I was told to pass this on. The only reason the goths are the way they are is because they want to stand out in this world. They want to be considered different. They feel like they have no friends and deep inside, they are longing to have the life of a cheerleader. They want a billion friends and they want to be added into you’r social clicks. They want to get to know you and you’r friends. They want you to have thier back, and they want to have you’rs. They would be a really loyal friend. And when they say “I don’t care.” , look into thier eyes. You will see them jumping for joy. They may say no and if they do, you say “O.K. Well, if you want to later, we will have open arms for you.” Thanks for reading this. Know, comment on whos side you are on, and see how gothic people effect you’r lifes. Maybe you can bring them out of thier shell and into a really nice and sweet person. Everyone has thier soft side! Including them.
During my weekend, I had some really cool things happen. Jennifer spent the night(I hope she liked my mom!) and I went to Tarage Beach. Oh… that is on the Air Force Base. We had a really fun party there! It was so cool! There was food and stuff. There were not alot of people. We went to Bamboo Willies! It is so good! Anyway…. that is how my weekend went. Fun huh!?
:)
Even though my grandma is dead, we still hold memories of her in our hearts. Like her fried chicken! It was the best. She also knew a lot of really fun people. They are all sorry. Seeing that I live on Guam, I didn’t get to go to her memorial. I remember the time that she bought me a bike(in kindergarten), just for getting 2+2 right! I don’t only remember her love for me and my family, but she also held the same love for my friends. They are all upset that she passed. Well… more later! Got to work on my website! ![]()
As you all know, my grandma died during the weekend. She was a very caring woman who made the best fried chicken in the world! During the spring break, I am going back to the states. I don’t know if I am coming back. If I don’t, peace to everyone! I’ll miss you all! ![]()

Today in computer class, Jared got a really mean comment. It kinda freaked us all out because we don’t know who did it. Our teacher wanted Jared to reply, but in a nice way. I bet that it was kinda hard to do because of what the person said. Mr. Maqiuez warned us about these type of people. I guess that it over know, and Mr. Maqiuez told him not to delete it yet. He wanted people to see it and to tell them that it is not appropprete. He has warned us that if we were caught doing this, we would be kicked out of comuter class.
I hope that the bad comments do not continue. If it happened to me, I know that I would be very hurt! More later!

Then, I went to another website and saw that I had only one blog! We were than told to come here and post another post(phew! :). And…. thats it! ![]()
