Reaching for the Stars

Author's Note: Everyone is able to succeed only if you try, trying is the key to everything. It's like opening a new door and your ready to explore. I like this post the most, it says a lot of what I think. So if you enjoy it please comment on it, I like to see what others believe.

    Lily Sanderson is a regular girl that lives in Sea view with her Aunt Rachel and goes to school like every other teenager, but in the ocean she is a total different girl. She is the becoming Queen of Thalassinial which is the Mer world of Sea View. No one knows except her best friend Shanon and her new boyfriend Quince. Tera Lynn Child's does a good job with making sure all the characters have their moments to shine in the book Fins are Forever. Mermaids are very appealing; because of them they can change the way we see the ocean and all the life within it and you need to work to make that happen. Reaching for your dreams is a great way to help you succeed in life.

    Like all kids Lily has school everyday, but when her bratty little cousin comes to stay. Lily is so overwhelmed and afraid that she will fall behind. She is trying to become a Marine Biologist to help her Kingdom for above. But she doesn’t know that Dosina and a guppy hod friend have a plan to stop her from staying on land. In the end she decided to become the Queen. Her boyfriend Quince became a merman and all is marvelous.

    My goal in life is to become a Veterinarian, I have lived and worked with animals all my life. I have chickens, turkeys, one dog and a bunny at home, I go turkey and deer hunting too. As you can see, I have learned about animals through books and the knowledge from my parents. This is a big goal for me, it means that I will have to put a lot of effort in my grades and make sure that they are always pleasing.  

    If anyone can succeed in life it would be Albert Einstein, he proved everyone wrong about life itself. He was a full blown German boy, and so were is parents. When he was little and went to school he was one of the smarted kids. But when he was trying to prove his theories later in high school teachers would shatter his dreams. Despite all that he was the one who developed the theory of general relativity, effecting a revolution in physics. 

    If you ever had a doubt about anything forget that, live life to the fullest and get out there and reach for the stars, it’s your destiny don’t let anyone get in your way!

Being A Middle Schooler

Author's Note: Have you ever just put people in your own categorize. From my point of view these are the categorize that I view people in. My opinion is that we all are different and unique but we all are the same too.

In Middle School your either a hallway roamer, an class rusher, a do whatever person, or a normal person. I believe I fall into the hallway roamer category. I have a nice easy live with tons of friends, I'm the most popular person in the in the school. Everyone knows me and wants to get my attention sometimes it can get a little crazy but, it’s worth it. My name is Ella and here is my life story.

My room is my savior, it can be bright or dark on good days I open all of my windows and clean my room, but on dark days I keep it all closed-up and wrap myself in the darkness. I’m always in my room rather than being outside. My brothers know to leave me alone when I'm in my room only if it's an emergency. Life is good for me.

School, different types of people, crazy ones, colorful ones, bad sense of style ones some many names and faces and numbers sometimes it is hard to keep track of! I love being a middle school er though and when II have to go to High School it will be really interesting.

Inspired Art Piece

Author's Note: Finally the snow has come and this picture has inspired me in so many ways! One of the ways is writing this piece and  fun stuff to do outside. I can't believe that whom wouldn't like the snow! ESPECIALLY a snow day, but if we just had summer all the time animals and people might die. But of that note. Here is my favorite type of topic to write about.

This piece reminds me of our cabin up in St.Germain, the great outdoors are really beautiful! My grandparents own the cabin and we stay up there to either snowmobile in the winter or swim in the lake in the summer time. Obviously this painting is different from our cabin but when I look at it memories come flooding back to me.

In the winter time we snowmobile, the scenery is even more beautiful than here at home. Everything is covered in snow! Down the main road of were our cabin is, there is a little bar that we like to go to named Fiber’s, when you are sitting at the bar or the restaurant area you will see all different snowmobiles go bye. It is so much fun and I love having the need for speed so snowmobiling is my kind if thing!

Favorite Quote

Author's Note: We all succeed in life weather it's a big or a small succession. I wrote about this quote because it is completely true.Like another quote "big things do come in  small packages."

“A person with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds.” -Mark Twain

I like this quote because it is true. When a person has an idea they are a crank until the idea succeeds, it happens all the time, do you ever think what it would be like if you felt like the world was on your shoulder?

My dad is a patent, he is someone that looks over new inventions that people are trying to push onto the market. Sometimes we will bring his work home so we can some inventions. It is cool to think that maybe someday we might be able to get a hold of it. Or use it in some way, shape or form.

I enjoy this quote, it reminds me that the world keeps on moving and that you need to be patient until the right time comes.

Ponit of View Story

Author's Note: How would you feel if you were an electronic, but you could hear, see, and feel things. That's how Charlie feels so read this and give me feedback, I like this story the most.

I am a Barns&Nobles nook, I have just been opened up and it feels good to have my screen be touched after suffocating in this stupid box. I mean really why do humans have to do that? We can see feel, and hear, just like them!

I was born in a big shinny factory with about 2,000 other nookies (nook babies). I took a while but when I was made I was trained and ready to go, but I had one slight problem. I was put on the shelf and sat there for about a week till I was ordered to leave for a store. I had a heard about them but never really could picture what they looked like. The elder nooks that really didn’t work so well would tell me that I was never going to leave, but I didn’t listen to them. I was one of the better looking nooks but then there were the joks, (Kindle Fires) that would come to steal the nook girls away. I was jealous but I knew by tomorrow I would be happy and find the girl of my dreams.

In the morning we were boxed up and packed into a big truck, I was surrounded by my buddies and anxious and ready to go. After a day or to I believe we made it, we were unpacked again and immediately set out in the store were everyone could see us. I was one of the ones on top, my friend was next to me and we were both excited to be picked, a couple of hours later a women with curly brown hair came and looked at us for a while finally after 5 minutes she reached out for me grabbed my face, I could not see and I was a little scared I heard my friend screaming good-bye and wishing my good luck. I was happy but nervous. I wanted to impress my new owner so I would not go back to the factory. I was purchased and wished good luck again by the price scanner, and then shoved into a bag. Also with a beautiful green case, I had never seen before. She was nice to me and happy that we would be together for a while. Ms. Spring Green (the case) and I (Charlie the nook) were stuck in that bag a long time, we got to know each other more and had an instant connection.

We were in that bag forever, finally we got wrapped up and shoved into a closet for about 2 weeks roughly I believe. Finally we were brought out and set under the a Christmas tree the night before Christmas, we both new we were going to be opened by a child, I was excited but nervous I hoped that whom ever it was would be nice and treat us gently. That morning, we could here kids screaming and hands grabbing our box. We laid there for a while but finally it was time. Wrapping came of and the first thing we saw was a huge smile.

Snowmobiling

Author's Note: I love to snowmobile it truly is my favorite outdoor activity. I have to need for speed! speeding down the grass, pushing about 40 mph. That is what I'm talking about. 

My favorite outdoor activity is snowmobiling in the winter, I always have the need for speed so this is when I get to go as fast as I want, I feel like I can fly. Especially when we I am racing my dad down the long stretch! We go up to Saint. Germaine, my grandparents have a cabin that we stay at, there are 2 snowmobiles and I sled that my use of our brothers. Since I passed snowmobile safety I can drive my own snowmobile, he has two at our house. There is the crotch rocket, and the old hag which is the older one. It is a pain in the butt to start, so I drive crotch rocket. I love snowmobiling and will never stop driving. It is hard to survive without snow!

Favorite Vacation

Author's Note: Vacations are a fun time to get away with family and friends, especially to a beautiful Island! How about JAMAICA! Like everyone else we need a vacation to a beautiful beach, being able to lounge around and get a tan at the same time, isn't that what every persons dream?

My favorite vacation was when went to Jamaica, we stayed there for a week and it was awesome. We went snorkeling, swimming, played on the beach and a lot more. We would stuff our faces with food in the morning and lunch time and dinner. At night time they would have performances, one of them was a Michele Jackson performance and it was a lot of fun. People could participate, but the guy that acted like Michele was my favorite character. His other “brothers and sisters” were cool too. It was all really cool, one afternoon we walked down the beach and met some men that said we were in the Office of Nature, which means people come and sell stuff they find to people that come and look. We bought a giant shell while we were there and we had someone go out and get us a starfish. It was a lot of fun and we are going again this coming February.
