Hey Everyone!
My brother was watching America's Funniest Home Videos last night and this morning he told me about one of the movie clips:
A mother was encouraging her little girl (about 6) to practice her cheerleading routine and her spelling words. To help her she would make up spelling cheers. Here is how it went.
Her mom sang, "Give me a C!"
Daughter "C!"
"Give me a A!"
"A!"
"Give me a T!"
"T!"
"What does that spell," sang her mom.
"DOG," shouted the little girl!
Hope you had a good laugh! LOL
Blessings,

A picture
This is a picture from Mackinac Island. Beautiful isn't it. You can see the victorian style homes too! I espcially love the look of the water. : )

Hey all,
Sorry I have been gone so long but gosh it has been really busy here! I am taking English 2 Literature and Arts so I have to watch older movies like; Lord of the Flies, Diary of Anne Frank, Romeo and Juliet, etc.. and read books like; Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen (so far a great book), Moby Dick, and many more. Then I have to do a complete Shakespear profile and report on some of his greatest works. Then I have to do tons of book/movie synopsises, book reports, and much more! In total, I have to have 120 hours done to equal 1 Credit! ! ! And it all has to be done before this fall!!! I didn't start until January 2008 so I have to work on a bit of it through the Summer but that is fine because I love reading and watching movies! LOL It should be really easy in reality. It is silly how some High Schoolers dread this kind of work.
Well besides English, I just got this AWESOME High School Success Deluxe 2008 software for our PC and I am going to take up a new language. I can already speak a bit of Spanish but I am either going to take up French or Italian since that is my heritage. My grandfather on my father's side came from Italy when he was only 12 years old and my great-great-grandmother on my mom's side came from France when she was a young girl. I am also Czechoslovakian becauase my great-grandmother on my father's side came from Czecholslovakia when she was a young woman. So I am 40% French, 20% Czechosovakian, 25% Italian, and the rest is American and possibly 5% Polish. Goodness, that is an interesting mix huh! LOL
Also, I am reading "The Beginning of the Republic 1775-1825 by: Clarence B. Carson. It is a great book of information from date to date of what happened during the Revolutionary War, when George Washington becames president and how many other things came to place. You know, many people assume that after the Revolutionary War, we had our freedom and we were done fighting but really, the war continued a few years afterwards and more so because we had only won 13 states after the Revolutionary War! : )
And also, I watched a video a couple days ago called "Case for Creation" and in that video, the speaker was James Kennedy, a former preacher for the Coral Ridge Church. He said that in the early 90's, a poll was taken on how many people wanted Creation or Evolution or both taught in the public schools. It turned out like this;
10% of American parents wanted ONLY Creation taught in public schools across America
8% of American parents wanted ONLY evolution taught in public schools across America
and 76% of America parents wanted BOTH taught in public schools so the children could decide which one they want to believe in and yet still today, only evolution is taught in public schools and the government is trying their hardest to rid every place in America of God's HOLY NAME!!! They took the Ten Commandments out of the schools and now practically every week you hear of a teen taking a gun into school and hurting or attempting to hurt innocent students! Now you can't pray in school over your lunch, you can't talk about God or Jesus Christ, you can't read your Holy Bible and are forbidden to take Bibles into schools! ! ! What is this country coming to??? Now even worse, they want to take IN GOD WE TRUST off of our money! They better not because that would be just like basphemy against God! But here is the good part, we can make a difference! Goverment will change as we, young teens and preteens, continue to grow with God's wisdom, and we, if God is calling, can take a stand and vote for a godly president, we could even run for president or governer or whatever you feel God is calling you to! And if you don't think God wants something quite so large, then PRAY. That is one thing that no one can stop us from doing. Be like Daniel from the Bible and pray three times everyday (grace over meals don't count : )
Be a pray warrior and at every oppurtunity you see, be a godly example shinning God's light in your speach and actions. Remember, actions speak louder than words!
God bless you all and have a wonderful day,

Dentist Visit ; )
Hey Everyone,
Today I went to the Dentists office and had a filling because my molar tooth on the left far back had a small indentation that could possibly get a "future cavity"! It was quick so I guess I can't complain about that but at least I got a free toothbrush! LOL It was kinda creepy when the dentist was sticking these sci-fi wierd tools in my mouth and I felt awkward having my jaw feeling like it was about to break from having my mouth open for like 10 minutes straight! JK It was fine. : )
So that is my exciting story for the day. Besides that "possible" cavity, my teeth are doing great! YEA!!! No cavities or plaque build up. : P Well I hope you all are well and I will write something more interesting later! ; )

Crazy DAY
Well my family and I just survived another crazy week! Babysitting jobs were cancelled and rescheduled, after school activities canceled, cleaning, chores, and school work made it an extremely hectic week. Shopping was accomplished yesterday and taking baby made it more of an adventure! Everything has been extremely busy and tiring but that is life for you. Not a day passes by that I can say I didn't do anything! LOL To show the weather forecast in my part of the world here is a picture that just about sums it all up!
Well I need to go and take care of more chores, reading, practice of my instruments and so much more, but before I go, I pray that God will bless you all and keep you safe and warm if your weather is like mine and nice and cool if you are in a more tropical place! May God's blessings be on you all!
Until next post,
Social Butterfly
