Top 5 Haiku :

1. Dead roses.
First petal
falls.

2. Sleepless nights.
Coffee cravings
Fuel the body.

3. Yellow sun,
Red skin,
sun burnt.

4. Snow falls.
Bitter breezes
bites toes.

5. Gloomy skies overhead.
Dreadful mourning
for days to come.

Well, my haiku's aren't all that great. Feedback would be nice. Thanks!

Haiku Guy Response





Hmm....I'm not quite sure what I thought of this book. It's definitely not one of my favorites. The book was confusing in some aspects. One thing that confused me the most was: I had no clue as to what the point of view of the story was. Some chapters spoke as if it was Buck-Teeth speaking while other chapters, the author was speaking to the reader, directly...I think. I also didn't understand the point of the story. Usually stories have a purpose or a message that's trying to be told to us. Maybe this book was supposed to help us write haiku's. I don't think it really worked for me. It just showed me that haiku's can be written about anything. Overall, I was confused by the book and I became frustrated very easily, leading to my endless breaks.

10 Questions:

1. Who are the most important people in your life, and why?
My family are a few extremely important people in my life just because they've done more than I could ask for. They're my best friends that I could never lose. My friends are important but I have very few CLOSE ones. Djana Sefo, Ashli Giles, James Kegler, and Teodoro Santiago are important to me because they've been through everything with me from the start. And last person- my boyfriend Ray Rivera because although we've had our ups and downs, he's done nothing but love and protect me throughout the time that we've been together. Don't know where I'd be without these people!

2. When do you feel most afraid?
I feel most afraid when I feel that I'm around danger. Thus, the reason why I hate arguing, fighting, killing, stealing, etc.

3. What bores you, and why?
I get bored with dull things. I like color. I get bored with people who talk about themselves or about one topic a lot. To tell you the truth, I don't care. I get bored with not having anything to entertain me. And although I am a cheerleader for basketball, I get bored with basketball too.

4. How important is money to you?
Not that important. Even though it gets me everything I want, I'm easily entertained like a child. it doesn't take money for me to have fun.

5. If you could accomplish only one thing in your life, what would it be and why?
I would want to...Um make a positive impact on the world. I don't know how, though...

6. How important is food to you?
EXTREMELY. Food is what keeps me entertained, food helps me when I'm sad, food is there when I'm happy. There is absolutely nothing wrong with food. I would marry food if food was a person! :)

7. Do you have any bad habits?
I used to bite my nails but that habit seems to be "going away" so I guess not anymore.

8. Do you have any tattoos or piercings? If so where?
Ew. No tattoos. I don't find them appealing. On the other hand, I love piercings. I have 2 holes on each ear, an industrial on one, a cartilage piercing on the other, a belly ring and one more is (hopefully) on the way!

9. If you could be an animal, what would you be?
I would LOVE to be a tiger. They're fierce, cuddly, and gorgeous!

10. Do you believe in ghosts?
No. Only in the Super Mario game.

Texting Takes Over?

 
Don't get me wrong, I love texting. It's one of my main hobbies. However, texting is becoming too much of a problem in our society today. Laws have been passed regarding this issue, but it seems that laws are just not enough. Not too long ago, a law was passed stating that texting while driving is illegal. Many accidents have been caused by drives who have not been paying attention to the road, but have been paying attention to incoming text messages. Various injuries as well as deaths have been caused by this handheld device. Texting has also become an issue for pedestrians. People walking across the street are also distracted by texting and this causes accidents as well. They become distracted while crossing streets and walking on the sidewalk which causes car accidents and collision with humans. Not only has texting become an issue in the streets, but in school as well. Texting has been a cause of distraction nowadays. For someone to be focused on the lesson or what is being taught, the person must have no distractions. No talking, no games, no texting. From my experience, I can say that texting truly has an impact on our grades and our concentration. However, there seems no way to get around it. Soon, texting is going to be the base of our society. Texting is taking over the world.

Venting Session?


Yeah, yeah. I know these blog post thingies are supposed to be "thought-provoking" and what-not but I really need to get my mind cleared off before going to bed. In the beginning of the year, I was passing all my classes with all A's except for two B's. That's normal for me. Then, the second marking period came along and I had straight A's and I was on High Honor Roll With Distinction. Now, having this happen showed me what I was capable of. Third marking period comes along and I have 3 B's! I'm angry with myself. I'm not really sure how my grades dropped but they did. I'm overwhelmed with keeping up with school, cheerleading, my boyfriend, and my social life. I feel like I'm overdoing everything. On top of that, at home, there's a lot of pressure on me. My mom knows what I'm capable of and B's aren't really acceptable either. I feel like everything I do isn't good enough right at this moment. I wish that I could take a step back from life and take a breather just for a few seconds. I need to catch up with everything. Ugh, anyways, I'm gonna stop boring everyone so, goodnight. Any advice or suggestions would be GREAT!

Farewell Post...As Ms.Gamzon calls it.

Well, to tell you the truth, I really don't wanna be writing this at all. I'm lazy and anxious today. So this post is kinda pointless. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be saying in this post. I think I'm supposed to say goodbye. But what for? I'll be posting at any time I please! I'm just typing and typing random thoughts because...Well because Ms.Gamzon wants me to. Seriously, this is a pointless blog and I don't want to bore anyone to tears so GOODBYE! :)
