What I Love

The first picture is Bethany Baptist and the second one is east Side Baptist, and the third is me getting baptized


What I love more than anything that I can think of at this moment is my church. I attend Bethany Baptist Church and I love it so so so so much. I love how I can go there every Sunday and Tuesday and even if I am having a bad day it will be a whole lot better once I get there. I know I have friends there and I do not have to worry if they are paying or if they are my real friends. I know if I need advice then I can ask them. I value there love and friendship. I never want to lose them. I also attend East Side Baptist Church when I am with my dad. My dad is the other person I love and value. I know this blog is a bit shorter then others but it is hard for me to put how I feel about these things into words.

Identical Twins

I know many twins weird huh? Well I just happen to know that just because your a twin does not mean your the same person. Lets say that twins are born and are separated at birth. You with me? So one twin goes to a wealthy family and the other goes to a dirt poor family. Are they going to be the same as if they were still together? Well no they won't. You could have twins who where not separated and still not be the same. Just because you look the same does not mean they are the same. One twin could be smart and outgoing, but the other twin could be dark and angry. So as you can see just because you are separated at birth and in different living situations does not mean you are going to be just like your twin or nothing like your twin. Something else I wanted to add was that I have a sister who is five year younger than I am but we are just the same in many many different ways. So everyone is there own person weather your a twin, triplet, sextuplets, or an only child does not make you who you are. Only you can say who you are and are not.

What Do I Value?

The above picture is a picture of my dad and sister Nakya caught off guard. Well I do value my life but I am not going into that whole speech. I mostly value my relationship with my dad mainly because he is the closest thing I have in my life. My dad has been with me through think and thin no matter what the circumstances. as most of you know I almost died this summer in a tragic ATV accident. If it was not for my dads quick thinking (which for him does not always happen LOL) I would not be here today. All I wanted while I was in the hospital was my dad because I knew what he felt and I hurt too. If I am to loose my dad before I get married have kids and do all that adult stuff I think i would die myself. I don't know why but I can feel when my dad is in pain and I don't even live with him. My dad lives in Springfield, Oregon and I live in Salem, Oregon and that is hard enough on me not being able to see him everyday. There is two songs that represent my dad and I. Buckcherry's Sorry. Not the whole song that would be a little weird but just this one part. Oh I had a lot to say was thinking on my time away
I missed you and things weren't the same
Cause everything inside it never comes out right
And when I see you cry it makes me want to die I picked this song because I think about how much I love my dad at least once a day and, when we see each other cry or in pain it hurts us both and we want to die a little bit inside. The whole song that represents my dad and I would have to be. How You Remind Me. Mainly because we had a rough life and if it was not for my brother sister and I he would still be sitting in Prison I think. I love my life so much and I know parts of this song might sound weird for my dads and My song but it really does fit us to a T. I have embedded the song in here for you listening. An object that I value would be a porcelain doll I have. The reason I value it is because it belonged to my great grandma when she was a child, and she means a lot to me. Value can mean a lot of things. To me it is something that is close to me and I never want to loose it.

The Three R's

When you hear the three R's you think of Respect Responsibility and Readiness to learn right?? Well you right but not in this case. Yes we have Respect and Responsibility but the other one is Reality.


Respect- something I need to learn on myself is respecting myself. I tell everyone that they need to respect them selves then they can respect others more accurately.
We also have to learn to respect others right opinions and beliefs. If you can learn to respect the fact that everyone is different then we can learn to respect our selves a little bit more.
We also have to respect our elders and yes that includes our teachers. (not that I am calling you old Ryan and Eric). But if you want the love and respect that they give to us then we have to learn to respect them also and that includes how they teach and what they are teaching. Everyone is going to encounter someone they do not like but as long as you can respect them when they are near you then you can learn how to respect them when they are not near you.



Responsibility- Responsibility can mean more then remembering to when you have to be at the doctors or work it also means to be responsible to your school work. If you remember to come to school and have you paper, pencil, pens, etc.. then you can learn responsibility outside of school and apply it more successfully.
You also have to have responsibility when it comes to your grade. By coming to school prepared and following directions then you can be in control of your grades.


Reality- I feel that if I am not Respectful or Responsible and I say that I am then that makes me a lier and I do not want to be a lier. I could be held accountable if I am a lier and that would not be a good thing at all.

Shellburg Falls

I did not like the trip for more reasons then I stated. I had a feeling before we left that someone was going to get hurt, then it happened and it ended up being me who got hurt. I felt pressured to go and I do not do good under pressure. I also felt that everyone was laughing at me because it was hard for me but that is for more reasons then one. I felt that my teacher wanted more out of me then I could give him and that i was a huge disappointment to him. I also feel that I can never live up to what he wants me to be and that hurts me more than my knee hurt yesterday. I am sorry that I let him down so he could not see vary much of the hike. I admit the waterfall was beautiful and was fun to look at. I just hope that one of these days I will be able to go up and not feel pressured. I felt that I could have done better but I did not want to go because I get ridiculed by everyone for it and I am tired of it and I just want it to stop. I almost did not come to school today because I know they are going to talk about it when I am not around. One of these days I am going to go back on my own and make it but until then I don't know what I will do. I am sorry Ryan for disappointing you and making it so that you could not see everything your first time out there.

Should Housewives Be Paid?

I do not feel that housewives should be paid mainly because it would not be responsible of the state. It is voluntary work, because you are not hired to be a housewife. I was your choice to have sex and get pregnant. Now I know a lot of people think well what about the ones who were raped or was not trying? Well there are still lots of other options. Daycare sounds like a lot of money but if can be or can not be. If you are a teen mother you would not be a housewife but you would be a house mother. Most schools have a program for teen mothers that are free. But back on track if you are afraid you will not have money then you be the daycare facilitator. Then in a way you would get paid. Okay think about the fathers who stay at home with the kids do they not count?? If something was to happen and the state decided to pay housewives then would the house fathers get paid also? Some one from the International debate education association said,

"Even if we agree there shouldn't be overt gender discrimination in the workplace, it is not the role of state to enforce its conceptions of gender roles on the household. Many cultural and religious groups base their societies squarely on the traditional family unit. Many of the women involved in these are comfortable with that. To enforce a subjectively 'progressive' model both violates their cultural rights, and risks causing havoc in these established structures."

This agrees with my statement about how gender would be a huge problem in this case. well every one has there own opinion and this is mine.

Should I Be Dreaming Of A White Christmas?

I feel everyone has the tight to dream what they want to dream? I dream for a "white Christmas" every year. I also feel that everyone should have one thing to dream about every year. Like I want to get engaged on Christmas, or Valentines day, or a white Christmas. I look forward to Christmas every year. I want it to snow but unfortunately were I live it does not happen vary often. Now I have read that dreaming for something as simple or complexed (depending on your thinking) is completely unorthodox. No might I add that is there opinion. I also feel that dreaming should be a part of every ones life. It has been stated that if you do not dream about any thing whether it is Christmas or that "ring", can cause some people to go crazy. So take it from me dream and dream big. The bigger the dream the more you will accomplish.
