Amelia poem
May 29th, 2009
So Iran banned Facebook and Twitter from use. The president even had no clue why there was they were banned. The banned was lifted Tuesday morning with wonderment people were not given a reason for the block. Here in America we should be grateful with the rights we have. Ya, we might complain but we might not have all the freedom in the world but….. Think. What countries in the world have barely any freedom? I can name a few: Indonesia, Papa New Geuinea, China, North Korea. Those are just a few.Think about it.

Hope. Hope is something that we hold on to. Maybe a dream far away. Hope, is something that is to come or will not come. We wish, we dream, we learn, we believe. That is what hope is. I wish that my family will change what will happen soon but it won’t change. Don’t take that the wrong way but its probably not what you think it is. I wish that I get to jump off the cliff in a place far away. I learned that it will probably happen soon as well. I dream that my mom will change her mind and let me go to cedar point. That dream might come true.
HOPE


“* How has this challenge improved your communication skills?
* How could blogging become an integral part of your school’s curriculum?
* Would you take part in another challenge and why?”
These are the bullets.
The challenges have barely improved my communication skills. But improve is my ability to write and work on the computer a little.
I don’t really know how blogging could become an important part of the school. But it could let us see that maybe we are not all just hateful and stupid and we could actully get along with one another.
No, I would not take part in an other challenge because I do not have the time the only reason I am ding this blog is because it is our assignment and we have to do it.

The year for me has gone by like well when you ride a bike. You start off fast then get tired and go slow. Then the process repeats itself.
The biggest suprises of this year for me was my life, friends, and family. My life because well I really am not allowed to talk about it my parents won’t allow me too. My friends because some turned and stabbed me in the back and other people came to be my friend that I barely knew and they are my friends that I talk to dayly. As for my family I can’t really tell you again I’m not allowed.
The thing I am, most proud of is when I made it to state in swimming. Or it could be the time when my friends wee back stabing me in the back and that I got through that.
The wackest moment this year for me was when I was just myself. I know it doesn’t make sense but that is my wackiest moment this year.
The think I will miss most is my friends. Most of them I will never see again but I can dream. Again I am sorry I can not explain.
The thing that I will look forward to the most in 8th grade is jumping off a cliff again I can not explain sorry.


The reson I traveled the world is because my parents were missionaries to Indonesia. The thing I most can rember is when we gave out food to the poor. The way we did it was that we held a service were they came to know God. After the main message then they would send them out into different litle groups and there they talked to leaders. The leaders would go and talk to the people that came and see if they can talk to them and help them in some way. Then after they do that then they will talk about the message and finish with prayer. After that it is a MAD RUSH to get out to the doors. At the doors there was food, clean water, and a desert. We had people giving the food out so they wouldn’t take more than the are supposed too. We would probably have about 5,000 people come to these things. But we did them evey saterday and thats it so it worked out really good. What would you do if you would have done this? Next I’m going to be typing about my vists to the jungle in the remote regions. Check it out!

I like competative swimming beacuse you can get really fast and meet lots of new people. I lovw the 200 yard free and 100 yard back stroke. The 200 free because it is a endurance race and I have endurance. I almost went to state in it as well. But i didn’t
… In the 100 back stroke my time was a 1.17.2 and I needed a 1.30 go to states but they only took the top 35. I almost made it I think I was like two away or something like that. I have been swimming for about three years. I started swimming at Trenton Swim Club. I miss that place. Do you swim? In my next post I’m going to talk about my experiences from traveling the world. So check it out

Cyberbulling is really bad and I know that you probably know too but still. Today in one of my classes we read about this girl name Megan. Megan was 13 when she killed herself. In the article we read about her there was her friend Sarha. Well, what happened was that Megan and Sarha got in a fight. Sarha went home to her mom and told her mom what happened. So Sarha’s mom went and created a fictional myspace called Josh. So Megan and “Josh” were chatting, and “Josh” said that she was a waste of space or something close to that and she should not even be alive. Well it turns out Megan was all ready being treated for deppersion and low self estime. So “Josh” was going and flirting with her so “he” said that on the day that she hung herself in her closet with a cloth belt. Now Sarha’s mom is in jail.

I have been thinking about the story hero’s for a while but then what is a hero? Most of us don’t know what a hero is. I think a hero is someone who does a good deed for someone like just getting a cat down from a tree. I am pretty sure that we have all been a hero before. My hero is my sister. My sister’s name is Elizibeth but likes to be called Ellie. In fact she won’t even responed to any other name. Anyways she is my hero because she is always there for me.I love my sister! When I grow up she says that we will have to travel the world together. I’m looking forward to that. My sister is my hero, thats all I have to say.

When I was little I use to have weird pets. I loved having weird pets but the only reason I was allowed to have them was because I live in Indonesia, (apenrentaly it was also because my parnets wanted to help them). So anyways I was happy and had lots of pets. I mean these are not the kind of pets you could just go out and buy you wouldn’t want to get them any ways( not that the government would allow you to anyways). The pets I had when I was little were a dog, cat, 20 birds, three monkeys, two oragutans, 20 rabbits, a lot of coy fish, five guinea pigs, five turtles, five snapping turtles, two catfish, and seven hamsters. I love all my pets… I hope I can get some of them back some day.. Oh, here is a picture of an orangutan ![]()
