My Blog....

So far I have written a total of 35 posts over the school year. Most of these were school based because they were assignments but some were of my own interests that I had written for my English class. I have a total of 13 comments from my teacher, other students, and people from overseas. The two posts that had the most comments were "My Main Concern" and "Hmm, Cows!" I think this is because those were my two most interesting posts and the people that commented on them could relate or disagreed with. My favorite post to write about was "Hmm, Cows!" This one is my favorite because my grandpa's house is my one escape. It's practically where I grew up and I have soo many memories on that farm. I liked that post because it was the easiest to write about. For my blogs that I have written I would say I have a huge variety of themes with by blogs because I go to serious and about the climate to my memories at my grandpa's and school dances and things I've been to and experienced. I aslo have four widgets on my blog. I think that's enough because I don't really need a ton of stuff crowding up my posts.

        I had my friend Kaela read my blog and several of my posts and she thought it was interesting and I made some good points. The blogs about school had captured her attention the most because it had brought back some memories and her experiences since she is in the same grade as me. She said that nothing was really distracting about the blog and it look pretty good how the layout was set up and what not. But she said if I wanted to improve my blog I could get more pictures, colors, fonts, just more of my personality in it to spice it up and become more appealing to my readers.

CC

I think that I should have a Creative Commons liscence. I don't want people spreading my pictures and stories around the world. I also don't want people making changes to the things I post. I don't want people to make copies of my work or make a profit on it either. Unless I were to give consent, I'm the only one that can change and do what ever I like with whatever I post. I really don't like to share and I don't want people taking credit for things I might've done, even if they make changes to it. I like things to be 100% origional. What do you think?

Beasts of England

For our English class we had to sing Beasts of England which is what all the animals sing in the book, Animal Farm, by: George Orwell, after the rebellion. The book is about how the animals don't like the poor treatment they get from their owner, Mr. Jones, who is a drunk, so they gang up and kick Mr. Jones off the farm. They then take over all the chores and responsibilities equally but then when a certain pig, Napolean, starts to take more control over things and gets more power, he becomes their leader and ends up telling the animals exactly what to do. This song was sung to enspire the animals on Animal Farm and to keep them together and have the same beliefs.

What do you do in the DARK??

If the lights went out for about an hour, what would you do? When our power went out we all go and get flashlights and candles. We usually all gather around the table with a million candles we didn't even realize we had and then my mom reminds us not to flush the tolilet. After that we just go off on our own thing. My mom will usually read, my sister usually goes to bed, my brothers go on their laptops if they happen to be charged, and I usually go to bed or text on my phone. That's about all we do if the power goes out. Or if we are all in the same room and someone starts telling stories all of a sudden we will all be saying all the stories that have happend to us at work or school. What do you do when the power goes out?

Wisconsin!!

I live in Wisconsin! Home of the Hamburger! Also known for it's snow, dairy, and drinking =P. If you were to come visit me you would probably notice a lot of farms and cows and cheese. There's a lot of hicks here; I like to think that I'm not one but I'm sure compared to other schools I am. I love cheese and I love farms. So Wisconsin is a good place for me. I hate the city and I love riding my fourwheeler in open fields with the hot summer sun and the freshly planted corn.

Using Pics..

When is okay to use pictures of yourself? I don't know. There is no right or wrong answer. You just have to remember that pictures and messages you upload onto the internet will always be there. So it's definately not something you should regret later on! Do I care what pictures you use? No. Not really. I would just say that any picture you use you want to make sure you wouldn't care if your friends saw it and then think if this is something you would be willing to show your parents or future employers. A picture can say a thousand words. Sometimes that's good and other times not so great. You have to be the one to decide.

Myy Blogg..

I have been blogging for quite sometime now because, well, I have to. Every blog I've posted is because they were graded assignments. Do I care? Not really. Is my blog interesting? Ha. Depends on what you like to read. I usually just talk about what I have to. Most of the topics I've blogged are interesting I just couldn't tell you what I will be blogging in the future. Do I like blogging? I guess it depends. On some topics I like to voice my opinions and be heard; but for most I'd rather keep things to myself. I don't really like everyone reading all the things that go on in my life. But it doesn't really matter because I gave up caring. So I guess what ever floats your boat because it doesn't matter to me.

ScHoOl

My biggest hurdle in school is people that piss me off. It's hard to do my work and learn when they're obnoxious and won't shut up. I know there is nothing I can do so I just try and get through it and try to enjoy learning about music or math or small animal management. If I could learn anything right now it would be things that will further myself in being a veterinarian because that is what I want to do as my profession. If I could choose what I learned about in school it would be just about animals. When I get out of high school I would like to go to college at Iowa State University for my vet classes and all the other stuff I need. Five years from now I see myself living in a dorm room at Iowa State college making new friends and what not and trying to visit home when ever possible. I figure I would probably be studying a lot but definately finding time to party with my friends and take a break from school.

writing skills

Have I grown in my writing skill? Since then beggining of this year I think I have improved my writing a lot. I have definately gotten better with using writing techniques and have learned how to order my thoughts to create a better more suspense full story. I may not like writting papers, but I think I'm not that horrible at it and have definately improved!

Cozumel, Quintana Roo, Mexico


View Larger Map

If I had to choose one place to go I would go to Mexico. I picked Cozmel because I asked Karlet, my best friend who is from Mexico herself, what is pretty and that's what she told me. I just want to go to a pretty beach in Mexico and realax by the ocean. All I really need is the sun and the sand and I'll be happy!

Creeper Cueren

So we have to right a blog about anything in English class and since I have no clue what to right I'm going to tell you about my creeper. There's this kid in my class and his name is Cueren. He is always creeping me and doesn't know how to right click on a mouse. He thinks he's talking to me but when he asks questions he answers all of them himself, so I don't know what he wants me to say. He is weird and he got a girl pregnant in our Biology class.The kid isn't born yet but when it is they're going to name it Wyatt Jr. He's really weird and I have to sit by him and I don't know what to do. So I'm just writing this blog and he's reading it and being...a creeper. That's my story about my creeper!

Goals!

What are some of my goals for school? Probably my biggest goal is to get straight A's and the highest GPA level I can acheive. Sounds lame, but for the college I want to go to it is extremely important that i succeed in high school. I hope to attend Iowa State straight our of high school, but it's really hard to get in right away like that. So if I don't, which is very likely, I'm going to attend a nearby college for four years and then hope to get in to Iowa. Getting straight A's can be very important for my future so I hope I can achieve some of my goals the best I can.

Christmas Break (=

What did I do over Christmas break? Well, let's see here...I worked, hung out with friends, spent time with family, and decorated our house. I work in a bakery at a local grocery store, and we had a lot to do because of the holidays. With friends, we worked out, watched tons of movies, and spent the night at each other's houses. With my family, we had Christmas, and I had some birthday parties to go to. Break was so much fun and I'm sad it had to come to an end!
