Thump drag, Thump drag.

One fire in the cabin going out, one kid sent out for wood, and one psychopath in the woods with a wooden leg that makes the noise of thump drag, thump drag. The kids in the cabin sent out a kid to get the wood knowing there was a psychopath somewhere in the woods, so they made a secret knock. The kid went out in the forest with an ax to get the wood. The kids here a thump drag, thump drag. They start panicking, so they go to the door and start piling stuff up to hold him out. All of a sudden they hear a bang bang bang bang bang on the door, and tell themselves not to open the door, since he's not using the secret knock. In the morning they tell themselves to open the door together, but when they open the door they see their friend lying on the ground with his legs off.

Spring Break.

It's spring break, and I'm so flipping excited it's not even funny. At the end of the week my family is going to Zions national park, and it should be super fun, but the one thing is every time I hear more about it, I don't want to go. I really would like to spend a whole week down there, but at this moment I'm just going to be staying for 3 days. That really makes me kind of mad because I wanted to hike Angels landing, but my parents say that's a hike that you hike when you're down there for a whole week. What a bummer. For those of you that don't know what Angels Landing is, I'll tell you. It's a hike at Zions National park, that has cliffs on both sides of you, and you have to hold on to a chain mounted on the cliff. Now when I say there's cliffs on both sides, I mean it. It's a four foot path, sometimes as narrow as 3 feet, and on both sides of you are cliffs, like 2000 feet down cliffs. Now if you're a girl you are probably thinking that's the dumbest idea you've ever heard of, whereas if you are a guy you probably thinking that you want to go hike that cliff. It's a really fun hike, but I heard that it's like five miles long, so you want to have more days down there than just 3, which is why I'm ticked. I want to be down there for like the whole week or more because there's a ton to do in Zions national park. I'm starting to think that this trip is going to be one of the more dumb ones because since my grandma is paying for it. We are staying at the biggest dump of a hotel ever. It has a swimming pool, but what hotel doesn't. The last hotel that we stayed at had a pool, but it had cement on the bottom that had been warned away to sand. The water tasted so nasty I thought I was going to die from getting it in my mouth. I think it's safe to say we didn't spend much time there. See, I just don't want to have a miserable time in Zions over spring break because of dumb things. Well, that's my spring break, probably miserable.

Sunburns.

Sunburns suck! There is nothing else on the planet earth that sucks worse than getting sunburn. My friend was working on his eagle project, and me being nice I went and helped him. I put sunblock on my face, but didn't even think about putting sunblock on my neck, arms, and legs. I was only outside for 3 hours, but I got it just as bad as any person on the planet earth. I hate the feeling of your arms burning, stinging, and burning. There is nothing you can do! I had to take a cool shower, I had to use a lot of Aloe Vera, and I had to use ice packs to cool me down. My arms are burning so badly right now, I'm tempted to go jump in another cold shower. I want to drive myself up to the mountains, and lay in the snow. The weird thing is my skin is releasing so much heat where there is redness that everywhere else on my body is completely freezing. It's hard to find a point where my bodies warm, but my sunburned spots are cold. I wish I could find the perfect spot. I hate not being comfortable! I hate sunburns, they suck!

Done but still more to go.

During my life I've noticed that after you finish your work, somebody comes and piles more on you. I've noticed this many times throughout my life. For instance school, work, and chores. What happens when we finish a term in school? Well, they give us a day off, but then it's back to work. You get your new term projects, new assignments, and new objectives. What happens when you finish cleaning your room? Your sent to clean the living room, or the bathroom, or the garage. What happens though when you want to do something fun? Well, you do it once and it's over for a couple of weeks. You do something fun, want to do it again, but get thrown down to "more important things." I'm not saying this because I don't think those certain things are more important, but because it annoys me when somebody tells me what to do. I know I will get told what to do many more times in my life, but it's when somebody dictates my life. For instance, in the movie called Zombie Land, it says, "enjoy the little things." I wish that some people would let people obey this rule because I'm sick of those people telling me that I can't fill my glass with as many ice cubes as I want, or that I can't stay up til 11 o'clock, or that I can't go to my basketball game if I don't have all my homework finished. All of these rules that are put on me in, my opinion, should be decided by me. What does somebody else care if I have more than five ice cubes in my cup? Well, anyway I'm tired of being close and then being loaded up with more. This drives me nuts, especially when I can't even enjoy the little things.

One of those days.

My life seems pretty repetitive. I go to school, come home, do homework, go to bed, wake up, and go to school. My monthly schedule seems to appear this way just about every day, but what I really wanted to talk about was my attitude during some days. Theirs always those days that you either feel so embarrassed, feel like crap, or just want to go home, that you can't wait for the day to get over. For instance, I went swimming in gym one day, and the rest of the day I felt like crap because I smelt like chlorine, my eyes hurt from swimming, and I was kind of tired. It was a miserable day where I really just wanted it to end so that I would be able to start the next day off a little bit better. Just a few days ago I was telling my friend that I just wanted it to get over because I had a band concert, and my pants were 4 inches too short. It was an embarrassing day, and to top it all off, I had two solos. That was one of those days that I really just wanted to get done with. There will probably be many more of those days throughout my life; I really hope there isn't another one. I hope that tomorrow isn't one of those days because I have big plans to go skiing with my cousin. It is going to be awesome, unless it turns out to be one of those days. My life is pretty repetitive.

Anybody can do anything if they put their mind to it.

I've learned through things that if you put your mind to something that it will happen. Today my church ball team just won another game in regions, and if we win on Thursday then we will make it to the championship. Today I was nervous, but I put my mind to the win, and we killed them. We beat them by over 40 points. It was definitely a big and important game. I've also noticed that through homework sometimes I feel over loaded, but if I put my mind to it I get it done. Sometimes I will be thinking, "I really don't want to do any homework," so I procrastinate it. Then I realize that I'm going to have to do it sometime, so I had better just get it started. I've been told a lot by my friends that I suck at basketball, but my church ball team just made it to the final four in region, so I must be doing something right because I made 10 points today, and I made a buzzer beater at the last second of the game. The game was really only like 4 against 5 because one kid on the other team just stood in one spot the whole time, and didn't move plus they didn't have any subs so we just wore them out. This instant just shows us that if you put your mind to something then anything can happen.

Donuts are the perfect meal.

I truly believe that if you were to have a year supply of donuts, and water of course you could stay alive. You know about that guy that tried to go a long time on McDonald's food? Yea, well I want to see somebody do that with donuts. The thing is that there are different types of donuts, so you could have a jelly filled donut, a pudding filled donut, and if you know a person, or make your own donuts, then I bet you could add protein and other things to your donut kind of like Jamba Juice. In health we learn that you need vegetables, fruits, dairy, proteins, and fats. I think that the only one that you might have trouble getting is the vegetables and proteins, but if you had a jelly filling made out of vegetables, and you added protein supplements, then I think that your donuts for a year would be pretty sufficient. The reason why I bring this up is because my math teacher always brings donuts for our math competition practices. I don't really have much time for breakfast in the mornings, but when I eat a few donuts in the morning I feel super energized the whole day. Donuts give you a whole bunch of energy. They have quick burning energy from the frosting, but then they also have bread, so you've got some longer lasting energy too. Maybe I'm just craving donuts right now, but I really think that you could do it. Personally I'm not going to try it because I'm still in my growing stages. I think on Fantastic Mr. Fox there is a guy that lives off of donuts that are inserted with chicken or something, so I think that you could do it. Now here's the thing though. You are going to be in pretty sick health, but I think if it came down to it, I think you could do it. If you read this let me know what you think because I think that you could do it. Now you would probably want to kill yourself since you could only eat donut after donut, but let me know what you think.

A Tale of Two Cities

I just barely finished a Tale of Two Cities, and let me tell you I am super relieved. That book is a pretty interesting book, but it takes so long to read. It took me just about an hour to read a mere 20 pages. I thought that the book was very good, but I hate all the French names, and all of the big words. I was telling my friends that I am actually pretty excited to read another book that is a lot easier just so I don't have to spend an hour reading 20 pages. I think that I'm going to finish the Percy Jackson series because that's an easy series, and it's a good one. Well, I really just wanted to acknowledge my accomplishment because I feel as though that book has really made my reading comprehension a lot bigger.

I wish that peoples' schedules would piece together like a puzzle.

I wish that peoples' schedules would piece together like a puzzle. My cousins and I have been trying to plan a skiing trip now for over 2 months. This is a very hard thing to do though because every time that we schedule it, something comes up and throws off our plans. Hopefully this will be the last date that we have to change it to because we are sort of running out of time to go skiing. It's kind of weird that everything happens at once. Some days you have nothing, and some days you have so many things that you are legitimately being driven insane. I just wish that peoples' schedules would piece together like a puzzle.

The smell of cookies, but yet I can't eat any.

Whenever something awesome is happening I am always the one that can't participate. Right now I smell cookies; however, I can't eat any. "No," is what my mom said, "There for the cousins." This really sucks. Not only that, but I won't even be able to play with my cousins because I have to read, write, and do tons of other homework. This is a big mess. Not only am I tempted to go hang out with my cousins instead of doing homework, but my cousins don't understand that I can't hand out. Every ten minutes or so my cousins will pop in my door and ask if I can come hang out. Sadly, I have to say no because my homework will never get done otherwise. This weekend is going to be sure misery, and I think that some of my cousins are going skiing. This sucks. From now on I'm going to stop procrastinating my homework, and do some on the weekdays so that I won't be so packed on the weekends. One thing that I will get to enjoy is the food though because we are having hoagie sandwiches, desert, and some other stuff that just adds on to the meal. I think that I can probably finish my homework in about an hour and a half, so if that happens then I will be able to go hang out with my cousins. Hopefully just hopefully.
