Kelsey

Kelsey Osucha is my best friend. I love her so much. She is just so cool. She has some nice pearly whites and beautiful blue eyes that I just love. We always have the best times together. We are always laughing together. We have many unforgettable memories together, I am going to share a few of them with you.  We have gone on a few vacations together. Allegheny, Jelly stone, and Lake George. Each time we had a lot of fun. In Allegheny we took a bunch of bike rides we also seen a black bear. When we saw the black bear we began to follow it to watch it as a whole group was staring at it he turned around and looked at us and we screamed and ran. I was in front of Kelsey running away and she grabbed my shirt and pulled me back, running in front of me.I didn’t love her at that moment because I thought I was going to be dinner.  In Jellystone we rode a four person bike with Mike and Lindsey. Mike actually ended up splitting his pants in half. It was pretty funny if you ask me. Lake George was also a very good time. Me and Kelsey went to the beach, and jet-skied and we also had a lot of fun just riding our scooters around the campground. We met three friends there and we would hang out with them every night. Every-day me and Kelsey would take pictures in a photo booth. Now them pictures are sitting on my dresser and I always look at them and think of all the fun times we had together in Lake George. Other than Vacations me and Kelsey have good times just at sleepovers. We have made up a bunch of dances and made some videos. We also spend our sleepovers pranking people back in the day. I love Kelsey she is just a great genuine friend.

new years

New years is on its way and that is really exciting. New years are always a good time. Every new years since I was a very young girl my parents have a party. It can be stressful because my parents always want the house spotless before we get company and my mother has to cook all the food. Around 7 o clock people begin to arrive at my house. My parents have their friends over and I have my friends over. It is a great get together. When people arrive the parents go out in the garage and have a washers tournament in the garage while the kids are inside either playing a game or watching movies. Around 11:30 pm the parents begin to file into the house and get ready for the ball drop.  The parents get champagne and the kids get sparkling grape juice and we all stand in my living room waiting for it to be time for the ball drop. We all count drown from ten and when it has finally drops the younger kids pop poppers and blow horns and everyone goes around hugging each other. Which I don’t really understand why we are hugging each other but I guess it is because they congratulating on them for making it another year in this world. I probably won’t be at my house this new years though but maybe I will. Hopefully not though because I’d rather go to other people’s party but my parents will still have a party no matter what. My mom loves having New years party, I don’t know why but she really does. She says it is nice to be able to be at home when bringing in the new year. I love New Years it is such a fun holiday. I can not wait for it!

h20

I am going to tell the story of one of the best days of my life. One day last summer Holly came on Vacation with my family to Ocean City, Maryland. The whole vacation we were having tons of fun shopping, swimming in the ocean and walking the boardwalk. One day just started out like a normal day of vacation. We woke up and got ready for the day and got suited up for the beach. We then made our way to the beach. At the beach Holly and I walked the board for about an hour and then went by the water. We tanned a little bit but spent most of our time in the water jumping waves and boogie boarding. After the beach me and holly had to catch a bus back to the campground so we could get cleaned up. Holly and I had to run all the way to the bus stop because we were so worried we were going to miss it. We caught the bus just in time before it drove away. Right when we got to the camper we showered right away and got ready as fast as we could so we could catch a ride back to the boardwalk so we could go to the 21 and under club. Fortunetly we made it and was able to catch the bus back. Once we got to the boardwalk we got in line for the club. We had friends meeting us there that we met from the other night at the club. When we got in the club me and holly had tons of fun dancing with our friends and some other people. The club was extrememly fun and i honeslty never experienced anything like it and wish that there were sweet clubs in Buffalo for teens like the one in Ocean City. I would definitly advise every teen to hit up H20 21 and under club if they ever get a chance to visit Ocean City.

poem

http://www.poets.org/viewmedia.php/prmMID/19286

I chose the poem “A Visit from Saint Nicholas” by Clement Clark Moore to write this blog on. I chose this poem because It is actually a poem that I have read to me everyday. Ever since My sister and I were little girls my father would sit us down on the couch with him on Christmas Eve and read this poem to us. My dad is a Carpenter so it was always funny to see him reading to us on the couch because he isn’t really a lovey dovey man that cuddles up to us. Well anyways he reads this poem to us and it has because a Christmas tradition. Another reason why I chose this poem is because it is like Christmas in like 8 days which is pretty exciting and it gets me into the holiday spirit.  I really like this poem because it is very cute and fun to read especially to the little ones and it’s about the best Holiday ever Christmas! It also use a great amount of wonderful adjectives which makes the poem even more interesting. This poem makes me think about Christmas. It makes me think about how it was always such a fun exciting holiday especially when I was a youngster and  believed in Santa. I just thought it was the most amazing thing ever but it is still exciting even though I no longer believe that. Not only is it a great holiday because you get presents but it also gives time for families to spend time with each other and be jolly together.   I honestly am counting the days till this Christmas and it is almost here. I know on December 24 my dad will be reading this poem to me right because we go to sleep. I love Christmas and this poem so much and hope everyone has a Merry Christmas.

online pub

Online Publishing is soon coming to an end which is very upsetting because it was such an enjoyable class. It was always a good time but we were also always improving our writing skills. We improved our writing because Mr. Currin decided it was a real good idea to make us write so many pieces in one little week.  We had to write three blogs a week which I really enjoyed because we could make them fun and entertaining to read and only have to reach a total of 300 words and sometimes only 250. So that was a lot of writing there and on top of it we had to write two articles every two weeks which was extremely difficult. The most difficult part was to think of two topics to write about. I always had a hard time with that. Those are the ways that this class has affected me. Now what I like to write about would have to be personal stories. I loved answering the blogs about something that has happened to me because they were extremely easy to write about and could sometimes could be very entertaining to right considering most of them I am making fun of Holly, Tori or Kelsey. My least favorite thing to write about would have to be writing a story on something that is going on here at Alden High School. I find it extremely difficult to write these types of articles. One reason I don’t like writing about them is half the time I don’t even know what is going on in our school so I have no idea what to write. Another reason I do not to like about that type of stuff is because there is usually not a lot of information to include in the articles which makes it difficult to hit 300 words. I don’t really have a major writing process. If I had to explain one I would say that I try to get the readers attention early on and keep it throught my writing and then after writing it I proof read and send it to editors after the editors are done I post it up on the bulldog.

beauty

To me beauty is just such a beautiful thing. A person, place or thing could all have beauty. I will give you a few examples of beauty and some opposites of beauty to better your understanding. When you want a real definition of beauty just take a look at Kelsey Osucha. Man does that girl have it att. From her baby blue eyes to her twinkly toes she is pure beauty. She also is a beauty within. She is always doing some kind of community service, helping out a friend or her family. Now that is what I call some real beauty. I always have looked up to Kelsey beauty. Sometimes I just thought it was impossible for someone to have some much beauty but I guess it’s not cause. Another thing that has an awful lot of beauty is the beach. Oh it is just so lovely, the baby blue skies, the soft warm sand and the sound of waves crashing are just all so beautiful.   The opposite of beauty would be this one girl in our class with the name of Tori Delzer.  She doesn’t have much looks but on top of that she is a cold-hearted person.  She doesn’t care about anyone but herself.  So when you want a good example for beauty do not mention Tori Delzer, or everyone would get the wrong idea of what beauty is. Another Antonym of beauty is the Nile crocodile. Wow, is that a nasty animal or what!? First of all I don’t think it get much uglier than huge lizards with a pointed nose and huge teeth. But the fact that they will actually eat a human being is just ugly itself. I don’t care if they are hungry they should just go eat some more grass, not my little friends. Beauty is something a person wants to portray.

garden gnome

So one hot summer day I was outside playing with my new puppy sneakers. We were playing fetch and having a good old time. Sneakers was wagging his tail with joy because he just loved to be outside and play fetch. So we were playing and all of the sudden my neighbors garden gnome came over and began to tell us a little secret. This secret was that my neighbor was a killer. He explained how he would kill a person every night and them drag them to his house and cut them up an eat them. It was quite disturbing and scary thinking that we lived right next to a killer. So I freaked out and ran away screaming into my house and sneakers was right behind me. Right when I entered the house I grabbed the phone and called the police the police came to the mans house and knocked on his door. When the man opened the door and acted like nothing was wrong The police told the man how he received a call saying that his garden gnome said he was a killer. The man denied it and shut the door. Soon after the police knocked his door down and started to search the house. They ended up finding some human finger and toes in his refigerater. After they seen that the man was arrested right away.  Now I have taken the garden gnome and placed it in my garden. Sneakers, the gnome and I are now best friends and play fetch together every summer.

haka hakabean staka

I have a few favorite childhood games that I have always enjoyed. Well I was younger I used to basically live at the Eggert’s house. I would go there every morning before school and when it was summer I would spend the whole day there. We always had the best time together and I was basically part of their family.  We used to play this game haka haka bean staka. It was always a fun thing to do when we were bored.  In order to play this game you must have at least three players.  The way the game is played is two people go in the bathroom and wait while one of the players goes out and hides the tin foil ball. After the tin foil ball is hid they tell the other tow players to come out and look for it. It is usually hidden very well so they will have to use the clues of hot and clue so it doesn’t take forever for them to find it. Once someone finds it they scream haka haka bean staka and then it is there time to hide the tin foil ball. It is kind of stupid but it would keep us kids entertained. Now sometimes we will play it just to be stupid but not the often because I’m not at the Eggert’s house that much because we are all busy with school at work. It is very unfortunate because they were like a second family tome and now I barely see them. Well anyways haka haka bean staka is the game I used to play when I was a youngster.

Rocket Power

When I was little I didn’t watch much television. I was always busy doing something like going to cheerleading practice or a soccer game. However I did watch some television. My favorite one would have to be Rocket Power. Rocket Power was always a fun show to watch. I used to sit on my couch with some chips and dip and a glass of Dr. Pepper and watch this show. I would think it was so darn funny. I thought there life seemed so cool. The lived on a beach and went skate boarding all the time. What a wonderful life! That group of kids was so chill. They didn’t have a care in the world and just did what they wanted to do.  I wish I lived that type of life. I also really liked their handshake it was so stupid but sweet at the same time. My friends and I always used to do it after we didn’t something cool or just because we wanted to. We would all get in circle and put our hands in the middle and wiggle are fingers screaming “WOOGIE WOOGIE WOOGIE” We would think it was hilarious and just die laughing everytime we did it but we obviously though we were cool doing it. If it was still on I would watch it all the time. It is kind of upsetting that I am unable to watch it now a days. I would still probably watch it all the time. I love Rocket Power and hopes it comes back one day. Rocket Power is so chill.

story of picture

There once was a woman named Suzy. When Suzy  was just a young woman she was always looking for love but she could never find any because she was so unattractive. She didn’t have much friends and would just go to school and come right home and sit in her bedroom everyday. She never came out of the room other than for meals, to go to the bathroom and to go to school. Her parents were so worried for her because it is really not normal for a person to not socialize with anyone. She wouldn’t even talk to her parents. At first they thought she was deaf but they look her to the doctors and she got tested but the results were just that she had selective hearing.  The parents just let her be and continued to just cook her food and provide her with her necessities. When she was sixteen years old she came home from school with a huge smil on her face. Her mother asked her in hopes that she may talk why she was smiling about. Surprisingly Suzy replied with joy, “I just talked to the man of my dreams and he has asked me to go out with him this Friday to grab a bite to eat.” Her mother was ecstatic because she was finally able to hear her baby girl’s voice and she was happy to see that her daughter was happy. Suzy went on the date with the boy. They ended up having a great time and the date ended with a dance by the clothes line followed by a sweet kiss.  Years later they got married and has five beautiful children.  The children grew up and the couple got older. They are now eighty years old and still love each other as much as they did when they were just high school sweethearts. Every night that couple goes by the clothesline they danced by on the first date and dance following it with a sweet kiss.

art

What is art? Well there is  a lot that can be considered art I think. There is many types of art. Painting, sculptures, drawings, architecture,  and um web design are all pieces of art. Art is a subject in school that children take. I used to love art because I basically took it as a socializing class. I had it with holly and we would always talk all the time in that classs. Well enough with what I used to do in art class and back to what the question is that I am suppose to be answering, What is art? Art is something that people hang on their walls. I have a view pieces of art in my house. For example I have a painting hanging in my living room I have a painting that was done by Thomas Kinkaid.  There is also a lot of photographs in my pictures. Most of them are of me and my sister, some from when we were little and some recent ones. Photography is also works of art. There are many artist in the world. I don’t really know of much though because I am not really into art that much. I mean sometimes  ist nice to look at art but other than that I don’t really think it is important. For some people it is their world, sort of boring world if you ask me.  Art is something some people go to school for. The probably are going to school to be an art teacher. Being an art teacher could probably be really easy. All you have to do is tell your children to draw something. Art can be fun sometimes though. Sometimes I do art in boring classes such as economics, I will doodle on my notebook whileMr. Wild is talking. Therefore it does benefit me sometimes.

I decided to choose this picture because it is kind of crazy. I cannot believe how close the plane is to the beach. If I were those people I would be freaking out. It does look like a nice beach though. I love the beach it is so peaceful and relaxing. It is the best place to go when you are feeling stressed out. I mean look at the crystal clear blue water  and the palm trees in the back blowing in the wind. There not much better than that. I wish I was at a beach right now with my toes in the sand and enjoying some fun in the sun. The sky is also very pretty looking the clouds look so fluffy. I think that what attracted to me to this photo was the people’s reaction it is kind of funny. Like that girl in the black bathing has her mouth wide open, I can’t tell if she is laughing or if she is scared, but I’m guessing that she is laughing because she knew that she was going to have planes that close to her because that beach is the best for sitting planes. Then there is the little kids with the woman are funny as well. The look like they are ducking for their lives which is pretty understandable.  I don’t even know why anyone would even want to go to this beach if the planes were so close. What if that planed crash? Then all of them people would be smooched and die right there on the beach. That would be a disaster.  When I see this picture it makes me think of crazy people in California that has gotten way to much sun. The woman taking a picture of the plan is the one who got the most sun where it is actually making her lose her mind.

Fear

The students of Online publishing class have to write a blog on the statement "Fear builds walls" and what their opinion on this is. To me I can really relate to this statement because fear often gets in the way. For example, this year if you didn’t know I didn’t try out for the varsity soccer team. I didn’t do this just because I feared sitting on the bench of my senior year. The thought of sitting on the bench watching the other girls play just didn’t sound cool to me so I just decided not to do it. I don’t let fear take over my life though like some people. For example, Kelsey Osucha really has a problem with fear. She actually will sit out of vacations that she is invited to by her best friend Morgan Dulski just because she is afraid to ride on planes. Now that is kind of ridiculous I think. She also won’t let her parents ride on trains or subways even if it would be very convenient. She needs to get over this stuff because it is really running her life. If I were her parents I would drag her on that train, subway or plane and make her ride it until she got over it. I would love to do that I think that it would be so funny. Kelsey is basically just a living freak and I tell her that all the time. She is actually sitting right next to me right now reading this and thinks I am a terrible person but she really needs to know this kind of stuff.

Winning

By definition winning is the act of a person or thing that wins. To me winning is the best thing ever. I don’t think there is any better feeling than winning. I mean who could possibly have fun without winning, I mean seriously? Winning also mean achieving your very best. Winning is being victorious in a competition. You can’t spell victorious without Tori which explains why she is so good at whatever she she does. So winning is a word of champions so be in it to win it. A saying that holly groth goes by is go big or go home? She goes big on a daily basis and never goes home. One team that knows nothing about winning is the Bills. They suck so badly which explains why they know nothing about winning. Maybe if they actually knew how to play football they would know a thing or two about winning. The drink of winning is Gatorade. I drink Gatorade er day. That probably explains why I am a winner. Winning also could mean just trying your best. A line I once heard was, “Winner, winner, chicken dinner.” This line shows that if you are a winner, you will be rewarded with something great, such as a chicken dinner. This motivates people to win er day, er night. Like my good friend D.J. Khaled says “All I Do is win win win no matter what got money on mind i can never get enough and everytime I step up in the building everybody hands go up and they stay there and they say yeah and they stay there Up down, up down cause all I do is win win win and if you goin’ in put your hands in the air.” This song kind of reminds me of this kid in my school who is known as Nate The Boss Bailey. Yeah he is a real winner in this school.

Thankful

Thanksgiving Is on its way and the question at this time of the is always what are you thankful for? There is a lot that I am thankful for. Some things are family, food, shelter, and some luxury items. My family is great they are always there for me to talk to. I can’t forget the really cool people that I call my friends. I have a few friends including Kelsey, Holly, Tori and Mary. We always have the best times together. We are always laughing about someone or soemthing. But I must say im the most thankful for Holly Groth. I mean what is not there not to love about holly groth. She may be the coolest girl in town with her he coug. When I wasn’t able to drive holly was always there to pick me up and take me home from school. What a nice girl she is? Holly also doesn’t leave me for her boyfriend like my other friends. For example, tonight actually Kelsey was with mike, Mary was with Alex and Tori was with Liam. And you know what, Holly was here right by side eating some chips and dip. When they were all having fun with their boyfriends me and holly having fun together thinking of a master plan to scare tori and Liam, which might I add worked very well. Holly is also the one who takes me on vacations. This year she took me to California with her which I was very grateful. We got to do a lot of things there such as going to Disneyland and walking down Hollywood Boulevard. I also met my future with her in Ocean City, I brought holly with me to Ocean city and she made me go to the club. There I met Connor, the most good looking, nicest lax bro whom I also am thankful for. Holly Groth is also always there to talk to. She gives the best advice. I hope I never grow apart from this wonderful girl. Thank You Holly so much you really made a difference in my life.

Christmas

My favorite holiday is Christmas. This is probably not much of a surprise considering most kids are a fan of Christmas. Overall Christmas is a great holiday not only because of the presents. Yes, the presents do have a big part of why I like Christmas but I do have other reasons as well. I like how everyone us so joyous when Christmas rolls around. The kids are making their Christmas lists and behaving because they want all the presents they can get. I like the delicious treats that come with Christmas time. I love making Christmas cookie cut outs with my family and decorating them and you got to love them candy canes. Oh, how they are so yummy. There also many fun activities that take place during Christmas season. For example, tubing is something that I love to do during winter break and obviously shopping is another thing that I do all the time during Christmas time. I have to make sure I get presents for my mother, father and sister. My family always gets a real Christmas tree every year. We usually go the day after thanksgiving to get our tree. We go out to breakfast with the Scutt family and they head off to the tree farm. Me and my sister get bored with it real fast but my mother makes sure we stay there for as long as it takes to get the perfect three. A week after we get our tree we decorate it. When I was little I used to love decorating the tree but every year it becomes less and less exciting. We fill the tree with ornaments, tinsel, candy canes and of course Christmas lights. I love going on drives before Christmas looking at everyone’s outside lights. Christmas eve is always fun too. We go to my grandmas and eat and socialize and then we go home and hang out then go to bed. I love Christmas.

quotes

There are a lot of quotes that I find very inspirational and agree with. One of my favorite quotes is by Charlie Chaplin. The quote is "A day without laughter is a day wasted." I have always like this quote and think it is so true. I am the type of person who follows this quote and really does not go a day without laughter. I just love to laugh and try to do it as much as I possibly can. I just think that laughter brightens everyones’ day and life would be boring without it. The second quote that I really like is "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."
The author is unknown. I really like this quote as well. I think that it is so true and life is really about the good times people have. I will never forget the times that would just take my breath away which are basically all my years in high school. I don’t think that life can be described any better than this quote. The third quote that I really like is actually my senior quote this year. The quote is “we laughed until we had to cry, we loved right down to our last goodbye, but over the years we'll smile and recall, for just one moment - we had it all.” The author of this quote is unknown. I really like this quote because I really feel like it describes my high school career. I honestly feel like I am living the best days of my life and I do have it all. I think this is a good quote for those who are in a rush to grow up because it really does make people realize especially those in high school that they are really living the good life.

dinner

One question I feel is very hard to answer is the question, if you could choose three people to have dinner with who would you choose? First of all no doubt about it I would love to have dinner with the one and only Justin Bieber. I don’t really know anyone who could possibly turn down a dinner date with Justin Bieber. Justin Bieber is an extremely attractive boy and I would love for him to take the time out of his very busy life to share a nice meal with me. Another person I would love to have dinner with is My grandmother who died. My grandmother died before I was even born so I never met her before. I think that it would be so nice to actually get to have a conversation with her. My parents always tell me about her but I don’t think that is good enough, I actually want to meet her and be able to hug her and talk about things that I talk to my other grandma about. I always wondered what she would think of me and what I would think of her. The third person I would want to have dinner with is Stephen Colletti . Stephen was on one of my all time favorite shows Laguna Beach. Laguna Beach was always the show I never missed an episode of but now it has come to an end. Stephen was always my favorite character he was so good looking and I was always jealous of his girlfriend and was always wishing was her. If I got a chance to have dinner with the three of these people I would be an extremely happy girl.

thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a wonderful holiday that my family and I spend together. Usually my family comes to my house for thanksgiving so we have a lot do to get ready for it. My mom and dad usually clean up the house the night before. I don’t participate in that because cleaning is just something I do not do. Thanksgiving day my mom wakes up real early to put the turkey in the stove so it can cook all day and it is ready for dinner time. After my mom puts the turkey in she begins working on the desserts and sides. She doesn’t make all of them because usually my aunts and grandma make the sides. When it is around three o’clock my family members begin to arrive. It is usually my mom side of the family but one family from my dad side comes as well. When everyone arrives we all just hang out in my living room watching the football game and eating snacks such as vegetables and dip. This is the time where everyone catches up with each other because we don’t see each other often with our busy schedules. Around 5 o’clock we all sit down at the table and eat dinner. My favorite part of the dinner is the cranberry sauce. I just love it, it is so delicious. The mashed potatoes and corn are also really good. After we eat our main course we go on to the desserts. Desserts are usually every ones favorite but not mine. We usually have pumpkin and chocolate pie. Even though I love chocolate I always go to for the pumpkin pie. After everyone’s stomachs are nice and full we go back into my living room and watch some more television and continue to chat. Around 9 o’clock everyone goes home and I try to get to bed early so I can get up the next day for a fun filled day of shopping.

respect

Respect is something that I feel everyone should have. It is something that every child is taught to at a young age by their parents and even teachers. Everyone should respect the people they are around and their environment. Respect is something that is really big in Alden Schools. In every teacher’s classroom rule respect is usually number one. Respect to me means being nice to everyone and treating everything the way you want to be treated. My parents are the two people that I first learned respect from. My parents are always thinking about others before doing the things they do. I always have envied that and decided that respect is an essential thing to have. Most people have respect but there are those who loose respect for certain people. People who do not show the characteristic of respect seem to be rude. I think that everyone one deserves respect right from the beginning but I will obviously lose respect of them if they don’t give me the same treatment. Talking when other people are talking, vandalizing something, putting others down, and even littering are all things that people do who have a lack of respect. I know I wouldn’t want to be around those types of people. They just make the environment so much worse and unhappy. Those who have respect are always people that everyone loves to be around. I don’t think I would be able to be around people who don’t have any respect for anything or anyone or else I would just be so annoyed.

dream job

My dream job would definitely be in the medical field. I don’t know exactly what I want to do yet for sure but I am leaning towards becoming a physician’s assistant. Science and math are my favorite subjects and I think that I really excel in these areas. I really want to be in the process of diagnosing people. I am someone who I will work at something till I figure it out and won’t stop until it is done or else it will drive me crazy. So I think I would really enjoy doing that. I would also like to actually treat the people. I don’t think that you can get any more personal satisfaction than actually helping someone out with their health problems and maybe even saving their lives. I really want to work with younger people because I just get a kick out of the things they say sometimes. With that being said I would want to be a physician’s assistance for a pediatrician. I don’t want to have as much responsibility as a doctor though because I do not want to have to worry about being sued if any mistakes occur. My sister is currently in her fifth year of the physician’s assistant which is mostly rotations at this point. When she comes home she tells me what she is doing and it always seem so interesting to me. I like the fact that every day would be unpredictable and anything can happen at any time. I think that doing the same thing every day would get so boring and I don’t think that would be the case for this profession.

Ryan

What does Ryan Pinkowski do on his free time? I know exactly what he does! When Ryan Pinkowski is not at school or working on his homework he is rapping downtown. Ryan drops beats every day after school with his fellow homies. He meets them a restaurant on the West side of Buffalo and just rap their hearts out. He raps are usually about his dog Charlie who is his best friend. He always wears baggy pants, a white tank top that is very long and a huge gold chain. He always never walks out of the house without his bling in his ears. Most people around that area know exactly who Ryan is and actually stops him on the streets to ask him to hit them with a beat. Being the nice guy that Ryan is, he is always willing to put on a nice little show for the locals and also sign some autographs. Ryan just keeps this on the down low here at Alden because he still wants everyone to treat him like an average teenager and actually live a normal life of a teenager. He doesn’t want people to constantly ask him to rap for them, he only enjoys to do it occasionally. Most wonder where he writes these amazing raps that become music to the Buffalo people’s ears. Whenever he is at his home in Alden he just looks at Charlie and words just fly out of his mouth and he then writes them down. He will sometimes even bring Charlie downtown so he can show everyone his inspiration. He only does is once in a while though because there are so many other dogs outside downtown and he doesn’t want Charlie to run away. Yes, I know it is very hard to believe that the Ryan Pinkowski that is in our online publishing class is a true rapper but it is in fact true.

sister

There are many people in my life that I feel are very inspirational but I would have to say my sister is the one I look up to the most. My sister was always one I looked up to ever since I was a little girl. When I was little I always wanted to be just like my sister. I would try to dress like her and would get my haircut like her. I just wanted everything about us to be the same. We would always argue when we were young but that’s what siblings do. Now I would have to call my sister my best friend. I can go to her for everything and if I need advice on anything I know she will have some for me. She is so fun to hang out with. My sister has a lot of good qualities that I always envied. She is very caring and puts others before herself which I think is amazing. She volunteers her hours to community service. She also has a great work ethic. She always puts all her effort into whatever she is doing. She always got good grades in school and I always was determined to get as good as grades as her or even better. She influenced me to try my best at school and put in long hours of studying because it will pull off. She is now currently in her fifth year of college where is she is going for a Physician Assistant. Seeing her go through it and hearing her experience she inspired me to want to go for that profession. She also has a great sense of humor. Whenever we are together we are always smiling and laughing. I don’t think I will ever stop looking up to her. I really think by looking up to her made me the type of person I am today.

Bee Sting

When I was just a little girl I was at the park because my mother coached cheerleading for my sister’s team. I went to the playground with a babysitter while my mom was coaching the girls. I was having a good old time swinging on the swings and going down the slide. The one time I went down the slide I felt a sting right above my eye around my eyebrow. I my eyes automatically filled up with tears and I started to scream because it hurt real badly. My babysitter picked me up and ran me to the pavilion where my mom was and told her what had happened. My mother than took me to the AJF shed to get some Benadryl. After that she took me to the pavilion and I was sitting on the picnic table with everyone crowded around me. I began to itch my leg and a started to swell up. My mother immediately freaked out and decided that we needed to go to the doctors. Mrs. Wimmer told my mom that she would drive my mother and I to the doctors. When we got to the doctors he said “She is definitely allergic and you better get to the hospital quick.” My mother was frantic she couldn’t believe he wouldn’t call an ambulance for me. Mrs. Wimmer then drove us back to my house real quick and my mom called my dad telling him that he must call an ambulance immediately. When we arrived at my house an ambulance arrived in a matter of seconds. At this point my face was so blown up that I couldn’t even see out of my eyes because they were swollen shut and my throat was beginning to close up. They started working on me right in my front lawn. Hooking me up to oxygen, putting in IVs and gave me an epi-pen to stop the allergic reaction. My mother rode with me in the ambulance and I couldn’t crying because I was so scared because I didn’t know what was going on because I still couldn’t see. When we arrived to the hospital the swelling went down and they started to do tests on me. I was waiting for everything to be done with my parents and grandparents. When I was sitting on the hospital bed I began to itch my leg again. My mom recognized the fact that, that is what I did right before I swelled up last time and told my grandmother. Within seconds after telling my grandmother I started to blow up again and the nurses came rushing In. They then gave me more medicine to stop it. After everything was set I was prescribed an epi-pen which I have to carry with me at all times just in case I get stung. Later my mom explained the story to be of how when she looked at me all she seen was three little wholes which were my nostrils and my mouth. She also tells me how I was so close to not making it and that it is a miracle that I am still here today. I hate it when she talks about it and tells me the story because It scares me. I never want that to happen to me again.

Nate Bailey

If you ask me, Nate Bailey is for sure the BOSS. By definition a boss is a person who exercises control over workers. Nate Bailey definitely has control of the school. When walking the halls he acts like he owns the place, which he probably could because he is full of money. Everyone knows his name and what he is all about. He doesn’t let anything or anyone get in his way and he makes sure it is clear to everyone that he is good at what he does and no one will ever be better. Nate also is always looking good when coming to school in his stylish clothing that extenuates his large muscles and the ice in his ears. Nate is not just the boss at school he is also the boss on the sports fields and courts. He puts his amazing skills to work and shows everyone up. Scoring touchdowns is a daily routine for this kid. Nate is also very slick with the ladies. All the girls love his big muscles and his confident attitude. People say that he is too cocky, but personally I think he has a reason to talk highly of himself. Nate really does have all the qualities that make up a boss so I don’t know how anyone could possibly disagree with the statement “Nate is BOSS.” Most people who say he is not the boss are really wishing they had his talent, and confident attitude. Soon they will realize that they will never be able to live up to him and finally say that Nate is boss.

scary moment

Just a few weekends ago I had plans to go to a haunted house with some friends. Because of the fight and fright world we had to go to House of Horrors which we thought was located in Cheektowaga. We got all the way to where we thought it was located and it wasn’t even there anymore which was a pretty big upset because we all wanted to go to a haunted house. We decided that we would go to Tim Hortons get some snacks and then decide what we wanted to do instead. So as we were eating some doughnuts someone pitched the idea of going to the movies to see a scary movie. We all agreed that was a good idea because watching scary movies is another fun Halloween activity. We decided to go see the movie “Let Me In.” The movie was about this family that was Vampires. They would go out and get into the back of peoples’ cars and would kill them as they were driving. After they would get all the blood out so they could bring it home to eat. Sometimes the little girl would just attack people because she needed blood so bad. The little girl ends up becoming really close with her neighbor and they begin to like each other. The boy was unaware that she was a vampire until he poked himself with a needle and she went crazy over the blood. Because she liked him so much she controlled herself and didn’t eat him. The family ends up moving because they realiz4e that the police are linking them to all the killings that occurred in the town. I was so scared the whole movie. I was sitting next to Holly and we were jumping out of the state of fear constantly. Now every time I get into my car I make sure that there is no one in my back seat.

scary story

There once was a boy named Nate Bailey, who lived in a small town, Alden, New York. Nate and his two friends, Chris and Mitch, decided to go out one night and be daredevils. They wanted to do the scariest thing they could because they we craving an adrenaline rush. They decided they were going to go to a man’s house who was known to be a serial killer to check him out and see if he was really killing and eating people. Nate decided that he would walk to the window first and the others would follow. As they were walking up to the window of the man’s house they noticed him eating a person whom he killed. Even though they were disgusted, they continued to approach the window. Just as they reached to window Nate stepped on a stick breaking it which made a loud noise. The boys ducked behind a bush right away and then they heard the man come out of the house screaming “Get out of here or you will be my next meal!” Nate and his friends were so scared their hearts were pumping so fast and they just froze. They didn’t know what to do. They then decided that they better leave because they knew that the man knew they were there. Nate lead the pack once again and they started to walk back to their car that was parked a block away. As they were leaving the man seen them and ran after them with a knife. Nate ran so fast ahead of his friends just leaving them in the dust. Mitch wasn’t to in shape so the killer caught him right away. Chris tripped on a log so he went down next. The man decided that the two would be enough food to last him at least 2 weeks so he didn’t bother running after Nate. Nate ended up getting to the car and driving away as fast as he could. Nate told the police what happened to his two friends and the police then went to the man’s house and arrested him.

singer

I really love music. My favorite type of music is country. I just love how each song has some sort of story. I have a few favorite country singers but my absolute favorite would have to be Brad Paisley. Brad Paisley is a wonderful artist. His songs are usually comical but he does have so serious songs. He is also extremely good at the guitar which is understandable considering he got his first guitar at age eight. Brad has had a ton of hits. Some of his hits were “Celebrity”,” We Danced”, “Mud on the Tires”, “Letter To Me”, “American Saturday Night”, and “Water.” Those were just a few of his hits, he has a ton more. Brad Paisley songs are so catchy and fun to sing and dance to. He comes to Darian Lake just about every summer and I make sure I am there every time. He really puts on a good show. He has a good way with getting the crowd involved and everyone up on their feet dancing. My favorite song of his is “ Letter To Me.” I really like this song because I can relate to it sort of because he talks about his high school days and I am currently in that stage of my life now. Brad is married to Kimberly Williams and has two sons named William Huckleberry Paisley and Jasper Warren Paisley. If you haven’t really listened to Brad Paisley’s music, I would really advise you too because they are so good.

class

I have had a lot of classes that I really enjoyed. My favorite would definitely have to be Studio and Art I took Studio and Art my freshman year. . I was originally in Intro to business but I dropped that so I could go into Studio and Art. I don’t really like art but I did it so I could go to New York City with the other art students. I didn’t expect it to be as fun as it was. I was in the class with Holly Groth, Kelly Truppo and Nicolette Gaeta. We did a lot of talking in that class; we would always have conversations going on while we did our artwork. My favorite thing about the class was the two seniors that were in there, Josh Sklener and Ryan Wawrzyniec. They were so funny, and I miss them very much. They would always crack jokes which made the class so much more enjoyable. I also really liked the class because it was a stress free class. I hate it when classes are stressful. Studio and Art never had any homework and there were no tests and quizzes which was a major plus. I basically like any class that doesn’t take too much work. Another fun part about this class was we were able to use our creativity in our artwork. The projects were actually fun and not boring. It was also easy to get a good grade in so it would bring up my average. I am so happy that I took that class and will never forget it.

favorite meal

Dinner time is my favorite time of the day. I love being able to sit down with my family. Dinner is the best when we order my favorite meal. My favorite meal would have to be chicken wings. I don’t know why but chicken wings taste so good to me. My family always orders them from the same place, Town Line Pizzeria. The wings there are just so delicious. I order them the same way every time, medium, extra crispy with medium sauce on the side. The thought of the crispy breading drenched in medium hot sauce makes my mouth water. I could basically eat chicken wings for every meal hot or cold. I don’t usually bite the meat right off of the bone. I usually tear off the meat and then dunk it in the blue cheese and then the hot sauce then it goes in my mouth. I think that’s the best way to eat time because u get that delicious taste in every bite. I make sure I have some Dr. Pepper to drink because with all that hot sauce it is nice to have a drink in between bites. The chicken wings also come with some celery which I also enjoy. It is so good to dip them in the blue cheese. This meal often gets messy so I make sure I always have a good supply of napkins near me while eating. Although it is my favorite food I don’t eat much of them when I get them because they fill me up real fast. Chicken Wings are by far my favorite meal, and if you have never tried the wings from Town Line Pizzeria I would definitely advise you too.

Hannah Montana The Movie

Another one of my favorite movies is Hannah Montana the Movie starring Miley Cyrus. Hannah is ruining her relationships at home. For example, she is late for her best friends sweet sixteen and she forgets to say goodbye to her brother when he went off to college. Hannah goes back to the place where she used to call home, Tennessee. When she arrives home she is no longer that rockstar that everyone loves she is back to being Miley. Miley Falls in love with a boy named Travis that was once a childhood friend. However, She keeps it a secret from Travis. In her hometown in Tennessee a developer wants to soil her beautiful hometown and place a shopping mall in town. In order to stop the developer the town has to raise enough money which seems impossible Travis asks Miley to ask Hannah Montana to put on a benfit concert. Miley says okay and “Hannah Montana” agrees to it. While singing at the concert she stops and realizes she should be lying to the town about who she is. She then took off the wig and revealed her top secret that she was really “Hannah Montana.” Also throughout the movie country stars made appearances such as Rascal Flatts and Taylor Swift. It was a reallly good movie and taught that it is important to be yourself.

Fever Pitch

One of my favorite movies would have to be Fever Pitch The main characters of this movie is Lindsey who is played by Drew Barrymore and Ben who is played by Jimmy Fallon. Ben is a major Red Sox fan who is looking for love. He meets a woman, Lindsey, who is very pretty and falls in love with her. Ben sort of lets Lindsey know that he is a big fan but she doesn’t think anything of it because she was currently competing for a job promotion and this was she does not have to worry about Ben being affected by her work. Everything is good all winter long. The two continue to fall deeper in love and are always together and having a good time. But when its baseball seasons things start to change. Lindsey finally realizes how crazy Ben is over the Red Sox and everything starts to go downhill. Lindsey is constantly feeling like she has to compete with the Red Sox team for Ben’s heart. She is definitely not to thrilled over how he is choosing the team over their relationship. Ben is faced with a very difficult decision when Lindsey makes him choose between their relationship and his childhood love of the Red Sox. I really liked this movie because I thought that it was extremely humorous and I also am a fan of the Boston Red Sox.

movies. Sisterhood of the traveling pants

I am not one who is big on watching movies. I don’t usually have time to watch movies because I am usually busy with things such as work and school work. But, I have watched some that I really enjoyed. One of my favorite movies was Sisterhood of The Traveling Pants. The movie was inspired by the book by Ann Brashares. In the movie there were four girls that were best friends and always together through their childhood. The girls’ names are Tiby, Carmen, Bridget and Lena. The four girls were going their separate ways for the summer and they needed a way to stay connected with each other. Lena was going to Greece to visit her grandparents, Carmen went to her dad’s house in South Carolina, Bridget goes to a soccer camp in Baja California and Tiby just stays home in Bethesda, Maryland. The girls find a pair of jeans that magically fit all four of them when all the girls are different shapes and sizes. They decide that each will keep the pants for a little bit and then send them to one another with a letter on what they did when they had the pants. When Tiby has the pants she meets a young girl named Bailey who she becomes really close with and they make videos together. Bailey ends up dying at the end of the movie because she has leukemia. When Bridget has the pants she starts to gets to know the soccer camp coach named Eric and starts to fall in love with him. When Lena has the pants she falls in love with a boy name Kostas. Both the grandparents of Kostas and Lena did not get along with one another which made it difficult for them to be seeing each other. When Carmen has the pants she realizes that her father is now living a new life with a fiance who has two children herself. She thought her father was going to spend more time with her than he actually did which upset her. Once they get back home they all write their experience they had when wearing the pants and wrote them on the pants.

interview

I have gotten the chance to sit down with a young girl with the name of Alyssa Eggert and have and exclusive Interview.

Vacation

This summer I was quiet the traveler. I was lucky enough to go on two, one week vacations. One was with my family and the other was with Holly and her mother. Early in the morning on July 14, Holly, Mrs. Groth and I were jumping on a plane on our way to Santa Monica, California. We had a layover in Chicago and arrive at the LAX airport and we went down to baggage claim to get our bags and meet Holly’s aunt. When we got to the baggage claim my luggage was nowhere to be found. We were off to a rough start. They ended up finding it five hours later on a different flight. After that the fun began. We did so many fun exciting activities. We went to the beach a lot where we went boogie boarding which was hilarious. Disneyland was a must. We had to go, there is no place better than Disney. You just feel like a little kid all over again. We went to Hollywood and got our pictures taken with the stars and Los Angeles to go shopping. While shopping at the mall we saw one of the Backstreet Boys, A.j. McLean. After a week in California we flew home and the next day Holly and I were heading to Ocean City, Maryland with my family. Ocean City was more of a beach vacation. We went to the boardwalk about every night but there were some days where we just stayed at the campground. There was also a teen club that me and Holly hit up three of the seven nights. We met some nice friends there as well that we keep in touch with. It was definitely a summer to remember.

favorite season

My favorite season would have to be summer. There is nothing better than waking up to the sun shining and the birds chirping. It seems like everyone is in a happy mood in the summer because it is just a bright season. It always nice because school is out which means more and more time to spend with friends and family. Being able to sleep in is a plus that comes with the summer months. Without having to worry about school sleepovers can happen almost every night. It’s the best time to go on vacations because you’re almost guaranteed to have nice warm weather to enjoy yourself. I usually travel to a new place every summer. There are also a bunch of summer activities that I enjoy which add to the reasons why it is my favorite season. I love to go to the beach with friends to just relax and play in the sand. Building sand castles is the best. Another summer activity I like to do is play soccer. There is nothing better than getting on that field again with all my friends. Another thing about summer that I love is going out for ice cream. Nothing tastes better than a nice big cone of chocolate ice cream on a hot summer day. The fair is also a place I like to go on my summer vacation. It is fun just to go and look at the animals, watch the shows, eat the delicious fair food and ride some rides. Summer is definitely the best season in my eyes.

learned

There were many times in my life that I have done something wrong that I have regretted but then learned from. One incident that happened with my dad made me change my ways of living. For a week my dad was telling me that I better have my room clean or else he was going to be extremely mad and there would be serious consequences. I decided that I wasn’t going to clean my room and just sit on my computer. That idea didn’t turn out to well though. When he came home from work and seen my room he was furious. He started yelling at me and i just tried to ignore him and just stared at the computer. He got so mad that he took the computer away and continued to yell. After that he took all the clothes that were lying on my floor and threw them outside in my backyard. After that I still acted like he wasn’t getting to me so he then took my phone and told me that I cannot do anything the next weekend. After that I decided it would probably be a good idea for me to go and pick my clothes back up and start to clean my room. I ended up getting my phone back the next morning and I had another computer in my room so I just used that one. My parents ended up letting me go out the weekend too. I learned that when my parents tell me to do something I better obey them. Now when he asks me to clean my room I make sure I do it so I don’t get screamed at or my privileges taken away.

blog future

I am having a tough time with planning my future. It just stresses me out having to pick a placer to attend school and figuring out what I want to do with the rest of my life. At the moment I am planning to go to college for something in the medical field. I am thinking of becoming a pharmacist but I am worried because of the extremely hard schooling it involves I am not going to make it through. I have some back up plans such as going for physical therapy or physicians assistant. I know I am going to have my work cut out for me when going for professions such as these but I think in the long run it will all be worth it. I actually want to go out of state away for college. I am thinking about either going to Massachusetts, Pennsylvania or Maryland. I think I will be good for me to do this because I will be able to meet new friends and actually live on my own. I am excited to live the college life and go out with new friends while still concentrating on my studies. I am extremely nervous about starting college after seeing my sister go through it. Constant stress is not something I want, which makes me rethink my plans. I fear a lot of things with college. I am scared that I am going to end up flunking out or not getting along with my roommate. I am excited to see what the future will bring me and hope I end up succeeding in whatever I chose to do.

present blog

I feel like I’m living the best days of my life these days. I honestly wish I could freeze time and stay this age forever. It doesn’t get much better than being able to drive, hang out with friends and having only school and work to worry about. School can get stressful at times with test, quizzes, and having to plan for the future; however I actually enjoy going to school. Work is also something that I don’t like. I feel that I have my whole life to work so I shouldn’t have to work at this age. It’s nice to not have to worry about stuff like paying bills and worry about building a house. My friends and family are what make my life so good though. My friends make sure I don’t go a day without laughing with their bubbly personalities. I know I can always count on them and they will be there for me if I were ever to need them. My family is also great as well. I can go to them for support and advice for anything. I love the fact that I am able to travel with my family and see what else there is in this wonderful world. Being able to go to places like California, Tennessee and the Bahamas is such a privilege and I really appreciate being able to do that at such a young age. I really like the fact that I am able to be involved in sports such as soccer. I hate the fact that in such a short time I will be off to college maybe never seeing any of the people I attended school with again. I may complain that my life is terrible and hard but looking at other peoples’ lives I am so thankful for what i have.

There once was a girl name Lucy. Lucy had been married to her husband for about seven years and they seem to be madly in love to the public eye but at home it was a totally different story. Whenever they were home they ended up getting into an argument over something. One night it just seemed like just a normal night for the couple, they get home from work watch television together fighting over what they would watch and then try to come to an agreement with what they were going to eat. Lucy’s husband, Chris, told Lucy to make turkey sandwiches and corn for dinner but instead Lucy made ham sandwiches. When they went to go to sit down at the table and began to eat. As Chris bit into his sandwich he realized it was ham and spit it right onto the floor and ran to the garbage can, throwing it right out. Lucy was very upset and couldn’t believe that he would just throw it out after she worked so hard to make it for him. After he came back into the dining room and picked up his plate and started eating it violently. Lucy was so scared because she never seen him get violent till then. She ran out of the house right away in fear that she would be the next victim and the two filed for a divorce the next day.

Blog number two

One summer day in the sunshine state of Florida a sailor named Bernard decided he wanted to take a day off of boating and enjoy some time on the land. He started the day with just relaxing on the beach reading one of his favorite books, enjoying a cup of coffee in his beach chair. He would occasionally step in the water to cool off because the palm trees did not provide much shade. After he lost interest of just sitting on the beach he decided to get up and do a little bit more of an active activity. He decided to go rollerblading on the boardwalk along the water.  As he was rollerblading he noticed that there were two beach balls just lying on the ground with   a note written on one of them.  When he read the note he couldn’t believe his eyes. The note read, “Whoever finds this beach ball will receive a thousand dollars and needs to report to the bank with the ball to redeem your prize.”  Bernard was so excited that he was the lucky person who found it and jumped with glee throwing the beach ball up in the air. When the beach ball went up in the air the wind took it and Bernard was never able to retrieve the ball. Bernard was so upset about it that he went back to his boat and sailed away and never returned to that beach again.

There once was a boy named Connor who lived in the state of Maryland. He was a normal teenage boy going to school and active in sports such as lacrosse and surfing. He was on a cruise with his friends to the Bahamas.  Every night when Connor would go to bed his mind he would take him on a new adventure. One night he was taken on the craziest adventure ever.  He was on a boat in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean when a storm came. The rain was coming down violently making it hard for the captain to maneuver the small boat. Connor was trying to do all that he could to make sure everything on the boat was secured, when all of the sudden a huge wave came fully submerging the boat under water. The boat was a goner and so were his fellow sailors. Connor was so afraid because he knew there were sharks everywhere in the ocean and he had no way of communicating with anyone because all of the devices were at the bottom of the ocean.  Just as he seen a fin in the water the water swimming towards him he woke up and realized it was all just a dream.
