My lack of sleep.

These last couple of days are going to be the death of me. I have stayed up all night for the past two days and havent been able to accomplish anything. I am starting to feel myself nodding off right now, or, riding the bull as Brother Livingstone calls it. Anywho, I will probably go drink my other two monsters so that I can be alert enough to write this intense paper. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving week!:))

Issues Paper

This is a very stressful paper that seems to be hanging over my head 24/7. It feels like it is never going to go away. I am arguing against gun control but am not really sure where to take my paper mainly because the gun laws where I live, and where I grew up have completely different views... I have never written a paper that was more than 5 pages long and am not really sure how to go about doing a paper of this magnitute. Once again, my life will be muuuuuch better once I tame this beast...

Haha...my personal narrative?

Since school started I have been stressed out of my mind. I have tons of homework and extra-curricular things to do and this darn thing just added to my load. I must say that as fun as it was to wrack my brain trying to single out an important event in my ever so exciting life...well it wasn't. Some of the problems with my paper: not much dialogue, very childish, I probably could have used better built sentences and also could have made the story flow better than it did. In fact the paper is probably going to make poor Professor Elliott cry and have nightmares for some weeks to come. Sorry Professor. Sooooo not looking forward to writing another paper..

Narrative.....

Ugh...all that I have to say about this narrative is that it is stressing me out like none other. I have been wracking my brain all week to try to find sufficient words to put on the paper but nothing seems to be coming out. It seems like everyone else in 150 has just the easiest little time doing things like this but not me. No. I choose to do things the slow and stressful way. After today it will all be over though. THANK GOODNESS!!

Exerpt from "Night"

This is one of the most powerful excerpts I have ever read in my life. It is about Elie Weisel, the author, and his father and their imprisonment at Auschwitz. The mother and younger sister had died previously and the father, son, and two sisters were the only ones left. They were called out of bed and told to walk in a line to a man who would either point left or right. The father and son were both directed left and soon realized that they were going to the crematory. As they got closer and closer to the flames the father started to break down because his only son was about to be burned and he didn't know how he would be able to bear that. The son, however, had different plans. As soon as they got to the ditch, he was going to throw himself on the barbed electrical fence, a much quicker way to die. As the moment of truth presented itself, a guard pointed them to the left yet again and they were led off to another prison.... What courage these two individuals must have had in order to overcome something as tragic as this. I can't imagine how I would have ended up in life if I would have had to endure such a thing. The struggle being both the fathers and sons, makes it so much personal and makes you realize some of the things that we as people living in this great country take for granted on a day to day basis. . . Think about what you take for granted, and change it.

Abbreviated Me....

So…me in only a hundred words? Well to start off, I’m awesome. I love to shoot and swim, and I do both competitively. Things that make me happy are food, friends and music. Things that make me upset are lots of homework and ditzyness to be cute. Things that happen on a daily basis are extreme lack of sleep, excessive facebooking, texting and daydreaming. What I want to become in life, a music teacher. Something that not everyone knows is that I had a brain surgery when I was young... Anything else you want to know? Feel free to ask!
