SO LONG SINCE I'VE WRITTEN!

Hello! So sorry, I've been busy with ending my summer and starting 7th grade. When was the last time I wrote, July? Well, I have to update you on the big 7. It's SO COOL! I love all my teachers, all my classes, and I absolutely love my homework! Just kidding. I am acually finishing up some homework now. Math, Science, and English. I wrote a poem for english and I thought you might want to hear it.

I Am...

I am beautiful like a rose.
I wonder if the world will bring peace.
I hear laughter in my head.
I see myself smiling in the frame.
I want my life to be a never ending line of laughs.
I am beautiful like a rose.

I pretend to be known throughout the world.
I feel the joy beneath my skin.
I touch my silky blonde hair as if it were the softest cloud.
I worry about my future, and how it will turn out.
I cry when I see other lives lost.
I am beautiful like a rose.

I understand I will not live forever.
I say life is like a song.
I dream of things nobody knows.
I hope I can be the best I can be.
I am beautiful like a rose.

What did you think? Comment with your name and state. Thanks guys! I'll try to write more often!

Busy Week: No Mexican Heat!

Sorry I havn't posted in a while, I have been busier than the shopping mall on Saturday. Just got back from Mexico yesterday, which was a great trip! I would have written from there, but there is no internet reception so I couldn't get on. Plus, we dont have a computer down there, aside from my uncle's laptop and fancy touch screen phone with internet. The first day was really gloomy. All we did was sweep, dust, and unpack. We played Yahtzee that night, acually we played every night. The mosquitos ate me alive that night, in the morning I felt like I had a minor case of chicken pox! The next morning after Eggs, bacon, sausage, and tortillas, we walked up in the hills (which was great, but tiring). Uncle Bernie and Aunt Megan seemed to like it. It was gloomy, but at 4:00 the sun came out. We alll sat on our beach chairs and drank Diet Root Beer (Only the adults added alcohol). We shopped the strip mall downtown and I bought a new toe ring to add to my collection. We saw these cute little baby lions and tigers and got to take a photo with them! They were so cute! If I can figure it out, I'll post a picture of one of the lions named Penelope. That night the mosquitos left me alone, so I was itchless in the morning. In the morning, we walked the SAME walk again only we went a lot further. 3 uphills! And they were steep (Like / )! I was about to die when we got home, but I drank some Power Ade and felt better. The sun was out all day that day, so we hit the beach. The water is ice cold there, but it felt good. We went home and played Scrabble. I took a nap, a long nap, while the adults chilled. No mosquiotos that night. Saturday was a lazy day. It was gloomy, so we all stayed inside. Sunday, we hit the road. I might go back in a month, so I said goodbye to it for now!

Michigan VII= Home
