8th Grade Social!!!

Okay so last night was my 8th grade social. I had a really pretty dress on. It was all different colors of green. My hair was put into a pony-tail and I put on fake nails & fake toenails. Yes, they have those. (:

When I got to the dance, I took pictures with a lot of my friends. But none of us started dancing til about 7:30(oh it was from 7-10). All the girls, including me, took off our heels in less then 25 minutes. We danced in bare feet.

The social was jammin! I fast danced with Ben and Brendon like a million times. I slowed danced with Ben & Kyle. And yes, I even grinded with Brendon twice. Sorry, but I'm a big girl now!

I guess you can say I'm liking someone new. ♥

Ahhhh Horirible Weekend.

Actually, horrible month of May.

On May 1st, this girl Kim died. I wasn't really friends with her but I saw the aftermath of the accident. It was yucky. My mom said I couldn't go to the wake because I was too young. But...

A few weeks later my friend's dad died. I am now going to the wake. Great.



Oh yeah,
happy birthday Alex!
a real happy birthday. :(

The ACI

As a field trip for no bullying, my school decided to take us to the state jail. There we went to the courtyard, through security, and heard stories from real prisoners themselves. The security, was crazy. It had so many rules. EX. Jeans may not be too baggy or tight, No V-neck shirts, no hooded sweatshirts, no jewelry, no under wire bras, etc. I was so nervous the alarm would go off on me. But it didn't, thank goodness.

When we went into the jail, 5 people led us to our seats. They wore beige color clothing. At first, I thought they were security but they weren't. They were the prisoners. I met 2 murderers, 1 ex-gang member, 1 robber, and 1 drug dealer. They were really scary, glaring at us and yelling and swearing at us. We weren't allowed to slouch, for they wanted us to feel uncomfortable and we couldn't touch the tables because that was where the prisoners see their family and friends for the last time and they cry there. They asked us some questions, like "How many of you, honestly, have smoked weed or cigarettes?" I closed my eyes, not wanting to know how many people raised their hands. When I opened them, I was surprised. Out of 105 students, 12 of them raised their hands. Twelve 14-year old raised their hands, most of them my friends. But they are trying to stop. It was sad. I DO NOT SMOKE WEED, CIGARETTES, NOR DRINK ALCOHOL!

We went out to the courtyard. Big fields, post office, school, offices, and other scary places.


STAY OUT OF JAIL YOU DUMMIES!

New President

We have a new president! Yipeee! Barack Obama is our 44th president, isn't it great? I got to watch it in school on Tuesday and missed math and lunch. It was great. Maybe Obama will do a better job then Bush, I have no doubt about it. I might be able to live a good life when I get older and not be homeless. That was the way it was going when Bush was president, no offense.

On Tuesday, at 12pm exactly, Bush was sworn out. When Bush was leaving the White House for the last time, people were singing "The Wicked Witch Is Dead". Well not exactly, but leave it up to one of them and he may be soon. Obama was sworn into presidency at 12:06. We went 6 minutes without a president! What could have happened in those 6 minutes? A nuclear war, etc.

Oh yeah and that night, the little Obama girls went on a scavenger hunt in the White House. And at the end of it, guess who was there? The Jonas Brothers! They got a private concert. How cool would it be to be their friend? But I wouldn't. They might think I am only being their friends for the opportunity and they need real friends, and if I got near them, I would be their for the opportunity.

Isn't it great?

Our 44th president is African American and I was alive to see it.
