The following post is in response to this question..

If you could make one wish, just one, what would it be?

Of course you cannot wish for more wishes, and you also cannot make a wish for yourself.  The wish has to be for someone else.  Who would it be for?  What would it be?  Why did you chose that person?  How will the person benefit from your wish?  Why do they need your wish to make their dream come true?

Here we go.

If I could have one wish, it would be for my mom.  She works hard everyday for me and my siblings.  She sacrifices her own happiness and well-being to make our lives better.  She can get very frustrated and sort of upset because me and brother don’t always show her how much we really appreciate her. She works nights so that she can go to me and my brother’s many basketball and football games and practices.  Sometimes she goes a few days with only a couple hours of sleep a night at best.  She has mastered humility as well as self-less-ness to perfection.  I wrote this to show her how much I really do appreciate all that she does and tell her that I think she deserves this wish to get a break from her hectic life. I also plan to show this to my mom, so that she will know just how much I really do care.  She absolutley is the one person that is most deserving of this wish.

Okay..

So if you are trying to change the world you first have to change yourself. This is because you, being everyone, all have prejudgices for certain things even if those prejudgices are of different levels or hatred or strength.  No one is perfect and everyone has some aspect of themselves that they can improve upon.  It is important to become knowledgable about what you are saying, before you are going to tell someone else about it, especially the world.

Here’s a short little question and answer for you to look at.

What do you look for in friends?????    I want friends that share similar interests and that can relate to me.  I want to be able to trust my friends.  I chill with my friends, so they have to enjoy sports as much as I do. — Jeff

ok so hey

for our bloggin competition.. http://studentfriends.edublogs.org/ .. we have to write about pets

My only current pet is a dog named Cody (past pets in clue 2 cats named Gabbie and Joey, like alot of fish i think 4.. two and then two more when the first two went bye bye .. both sets were named Chris and Randy, and a hamster named Callie).  He is a rescue dog that we got from Tennessee, which means that we adopted him to get him away from the bad environment he was in.  He is very cute, loveable, affectionate and playful because hes still a pup.   He is black with dirty brown or copperish sploches.  He loves to run and is always fun of energy.  However, this is probably because he never misses a chance to sleep either.  I also sort of have another dog.  His name is Nomar and he belongs to my next door neighbors.  He has always thought he lived at my house and always comes over the second he is let outside of their house.  He has been doing this since before we had any pets, so he has still stayed in the mix.

Here is some picture of my dog..

Now here is some pictures of my cats Gabbie and Joey.  (They might look lke the same cat because they are the exact same type of cat).

HEY.. SO,

Our teacher asked us to write about the most powerful thing we could say to someone??

I’ve thought about it and I have come up with this.  I think the most powerful thing you could say to someone is to say to them is, ” You know (name), you really have an impact on my life”.  This is such a powerful thing to say in my opinion because it tells them that you think very highly of them. It shows them that you care about them alot and care about what they say and wat they do.  By saying this, you can include a lot of other options other people might think are powerful and it is short simple yet meaningfull and thought-provoking.  If you said this to someone, they really think about it and take it to heart.  I have had similar things said to me, and I know it sure made me think long and hard.  It happened a while back, yet it was so powerful that it has been remember the whole time.  So, if you really care about someone, take the time to say this or at least something else to them to let them know that you care.  It could make all the difference, and that is especially important because no one knows if you will have a chance to tell that person how you feel tommorow.  You just don’t know if you will be there to say it, or if they will be there to hear it so let people know how they may impact your life.  It doesn’t have to be a speech, it could just be something short yet meaningfull like the phrase I said before.

These each area brief 20-30 second summaries of a 4 articles.    

Across the River (27 seconds)

Meriwether Lewis and William Clark set out to cross the Mississippi River to explore the West. President Jefferson has had Lewis as a presidential assistant and is the person that sent Lewis and Clark with a group of frontiersmen to see what is on the other side of the Mississippi. Their main objectives include learning about the people of the West and its land as well as figuring out if there was a river route to the Pacific Ocean. Jefferson had been trying to get someone across the Mississippi River to explore, and now his dream is made possible by the Lewis and Clark expedition.

Crossing the Plains (26 seconds)

Lewis and Clark encountered many things on their trip across the Great Plains. Indians were both helpful and harmful. These Indians knew their way around the Great Plains and Lewis and Clark receive some of their most important information from them. Lewis and Clark also deceived them by telling both the Mandan and the Sioux tribes that the Americans now own the land they live on. Nature also had an effect on how Lewis and Clark could travel because there are raging rivers as well as steep mountains and terrible storms that became constant danger.

There and Back Again (27 seconds)

With the Great Plains behind them Lewis and Clark now tried to follow the Columbia River to the Pacific Ocean. Indians both powerful and friendly provide Lewis and Clark with food and horses as they travel onward. Lewis and Clark traded many things with the Clatsop and Chinook Indians before heading back home. For six hard months they traveled back across the West and were welcomed gladly and happily by hundreds upon their arrival home. No river route to the Pacific was discovered but useful information on western lands and paths across the Rockies were.

Pike’s Exploration (30 seconds)

Zebulon Pike set out on an exploration similar to the Lewis and Clark expedition. One thing he wanted to do was to reach the Rocky Mountains and climb it. Pike then heads south for a few expeditions in present-day New Mexico. Many treacherous mountains stood in their path yet they eventually reach Rio Grande. Pike continued to follow the river throughout Spanish lands and so the Spanish thought him a spy. He was captured and imprisoned but eventually was released and returned home to the U.S. He reported back with the information he had learned and was grateful for the opportunities he had doing business with the Spanish in the Southwest.

Mr. Bogush asked us to fill in the following.. The quality of my life is determined by the quality of my _____ ?

This is what I would put.

The quality of my life is determined by the quality of my attitude!

I think this is a really good answer and I’m the first to come up with it. Hopefully, no one copies me 😀

What would your answer be?????????????????????????????????????

Well, here’s another new year, and again people want to lose weight and whatnot.  All sorts of new year resolutions are being made, but how many actually make it past a month or two, forget the whole year.  People are just too busy.

Now here’s my new years resolution, that I will try and follow up on.  I want to become a more determined person.  I usually just let things happen, and that is not always good.  I will try to set goals and then to keep those goals.

So if you make a new years resolution, remember that it is a promise not only to others possibly, but to yourself.  If you break a promise to yourself, then it a lot to put things off and do it again with bigger things later. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND 2009 WORLD
