Bad Ideas

There are many things that are pretty bad ideas. So, I am only going to tell you about one of the bad ideas that I ever had.

I was about 7 years old when my first tooth became loose. I wanted to get it out, but I was too afraid to pull it out myself. I went to my dad to see if he had any ideas on how to pull it out. That was when I realized that I had heard that taking a string and tying it around a door knob and your tooth, then shutting the door will get the tooth to come out. My dad got the string and tied one end of it to my tooth and the other end to the closet door knob. My dad asked if I was ready and I gave him the okay. (Note: DO NOT try this when you didn't tell your mom.) My dad slammed the closet door and the string snapped in half. At that time, I heard my mom scream. I looked at my mom and I started crying because I didn't know what else to do.

That same night my mom pulled the tooth out for me. From that ordeal, I have learned to never catch my mom by surprise, especially with ideas like that.

Love and Hate

I agree with the fact that love and hate are the two most powerful forces in the world. All our lives we either love someone or hate them. The two can have very powerful effects.

When we love someone, we feel happy and joyful. We feel like we are on top of the world. Love is the most powerful positive force that effects our lives.

Hate, on the other hand, is the most powerful negative force that affects our lives. This force is the one we hear and see on the news and read about in newspapers and on the internet. When hate takes over, our family, friends, or people we don't know can be hurt.

Many people want to know why the world has to be like this. Like animals, we are trying to survive, also known as Survival of the Fittest. That's life. That's the way the world works and has always worked. We need to deal with it.

Possibilities For The New Year

During this new year, I hope to see my family more. I hope that I make it through this school year with good grades. I want good things to happen for me and my family and to leave the bad times behind. Maybe during the year, I will get a job and get my license.

There are many things that can happen to me. I just have to keep an open mind and deal with the situations as best as I can. My family and I have been through so much, I couldn't imagine what could happen to one of us this year. We supported one another through those tragic times and have learned to be strong.

Most of all, I just want me and my fmaily to be happy.

Time For New Beginnings

In 2009, my family got our first dog, a pomeranian named Kori. I also want to remember all the fun times I have had with my family. We have also had a new addition to the family, my cousin Eric and his wife Krystal had a baby boy named Kaden. A few months after Kaden was born, we found out that my cousin Kara, Eric's little sister, will be having a baby that will be due on July 7th, the day after my dad's birthday.

Of course there are things that I will definitely not miss about 2009. But my family did get some very important lessons out of those experiences: Think before you act, Expect the unexpected, and Never give up on family no matter what.

The love from family is the most important thing in our lives that we can have. I love my family with all my heart and I hope I get to see my cousins and aunt again sometime soon.

My Favorite Christmas Decoration

My all time favorite Christmas decoration are the Christmas lights. I love going with my mom to walk our dog so that we can see the different Christmas lights.
My favorite one has blue and white lights and on the front yard there are deer made of lights.
We don't usually put Christmas lights on our house so it is always nice to look at how people have decorated them houses in lights during the Christmas season.

A Toy I Wanted For Christmas

Actually what I wanted is not a toy. It was an electric guitar. I begged and pleaded with my dad for them to get it for me for Christmas. On Christmas morning, after our presents were unwrapped, I was sad. I had not gotten the electric guitar. When my parents asked me why I was sad, I told them. Then my dad told my mom to go get something from their bedroom. I opened the box and inside was the electric guitar that I wanted. I was so estatic. Then when we went to my aunt's house to spend Christmas with my mom's side of the family, my dad told them about what had happened. That, in my opinion was the best Christmas I have ever had.

Do I or Don't I Believe In Santa Claus

I was about seven years old when my dad told my older brother and myself that Santa Claus is not real. I don't really remember how I felt when he said that, I just believed what he told me like I am always supposed to do. I don't believe in Santa Claus. I know it is really my parents who buy the gifts.
