Great/Horrible Weekend

Okay, so my Creamy Acres trip went from great and horrifying to dull and dreary. It all started when i wrongfully decided to bring my phone out of Joey's car. I thought it'd be safe in my sweatshirt pocket. CLEARLY I WAS WRONG! Up first on our grand haunted adventure was the Ride of Horror (haunted hayride). That was probably the scariest hayride ive ever been on. I even got touched by a chainsaw! At the end of our ride we were dropped off at a maze. It was pitch black the the only thing i remember was holding onto joey for dear life while walking through the very dark confined space. Upon exiting the dark hole was the dreaded corn field maze. Thats what i dread every single year adn i usually back out. I was so close to not going through with it but Joey and Emily made me! Getting chased throughout thr maze by so creepy chainsaw handling freak was definitely not the highlight of my night! And to top it all off Joey told him my name so he was screaming my name and telling me he was going to get me. After finally getting out of there i was literally about to pee myself! But of course that wasnt the end of our trip; the Frozen Tundra was up next and i was already expecting the worst of the worse! WE get in there and i could barely see a foot in front of my face because of the smoke! all i remember seeing were beaty red eyes glaring at me through a cage. (SCARY!) At the end of that we were free to do whatever we wanted so my friends and i chose the 3D haunted house. I automatically knew that i wasnt going to be wearing the 3D glasses that were handed out. Again i was holding on to my friends, prepared for the worst to come. The one specific room i remember had hanging people EVERYWHERE and in the midst of the hanging dummies were real people getting closer and closer to you without actually touching you. It was then that i realized i didnt have my phone. I went straight into panic mode! i went to the nearest security guy adn told him about my phone. He searched for it but couldnt find it. I gave my information to the front desk. Im still waiting for that call! :(

FALL

I cant wait to go to creamy acres this weekend!

Tyler Clementi

Before reading this article and talking about it in class I only thought that Clementi killed himself just for having his sexual encounters put on the internet. At first I though, okay well this kid needs to grow up its just sex and there would be no reason to kill yourself over it. But then I was informed that he was gay. The homosexual community already has enough hardships with the courage to come out and being accepted for being themselves. In the real world I know many families have become accepting of their childrens sexual orientation but on the flip side their peers can be very mean and even cruel to them everyday. This can put an unimaginable amount of guilt of teens just for being themselves. Thats obviously what happened to the teenagers in the article. Tyler Clementi was bullied to such an extent to take his own life adn unfortunately that is happening to many gay teenagers out there.

A Week in My Life

A typical week in my life doesnt consist of much except school, homework and work. Monday through Friday I attend school. After school i come home as usual and EAT (having to eat at ten thirty isnt exactly what i had in mind for lunch.) After I start making my food i log onto the computer and just goof off, listening to music, looking up stuff. I cant go on Facebook anymore because my Step-father blocked it for the school year (i hate him.) So then I start doing most of my homework. I usually dont have much because of the way my schedule's layed out with my study hall. Sometimes, IF IM LUCKY, i hang out with people or go out with my friends after school. Once again i say, IF IM LUCKY.

At around 6 my mom shows up along with the rest of my family and starts dinner or calls in take out. I eat some more then go up stairs to shower and just be away from my family some more. I come down at like about 9 and watch my shows, depending on what day of the week it is. I enter my bedroom for the last time to get in bed at around eleven. This cycle happens for FIVE DAYS. I have such an exciting life.

Once friday rolls around I sometimes have plans, sometimes i dont. What usually ends up happening is not note worthy so i shall end on that note. BYE.

HEY i remembered my password from last year. Wooh.

after reading jon meacham's newsweek article about threats on government and officials i realized that there are lots of issues surrounding our government and that its having a negative effect on our country as a whole.

In the article, Golfs marketing sizzle turns to fizzle by karen heller, Heller points out the golf industrys desire for hype around its players. With the entire Tiger Woods scandal adn the spilling of his past, Golf got what it wanted, sizzle. Now that theres so much drama sorrounding Tiger and his mistakes, golf has taken a back seat to his private life.
