Sites I've stumbled across...

This week I have stumbled across a couple of sites that I love going to.

The first one I read all the time! LoveGivesMeHope is a site that has very short love stories on there, and I have read every single post in my spare time.





The second site I got from a friend. This site allows students to submit their own stories and to see if they make the showcase. Inscriptions: Aspiring Writers is a great site, and the first showcase I read was really good!

These sites are on my good list, and I will probably still go to these sites every week. LoveGivesMeHope is my favorite site of all time. Especially when I'm not in a good mood; it definitely cheers you up!

Journalism

This year I am taking a class in journalism, and it is my favorite subject by far! I was so excited to see a 100.45 as the course average this week. Of course, that doesn't always stay the same. :( But, it hasn't dipped that far, which I am very grateful for.
Both my journalism teacher and my English teacher are so impressed by my writing. Since I do want to be a writer when I grow up, that is something I love to hear. My journalism teacher says I'm doing so well in journalism that he has decided to let me observe the yearbook class, and next year or next semester he would really encourage me to take the yearbook class. I am the only person to be in yearbook that I know about, and that is really something that I would love to do.
Observing the yearbook classes have been so much fun. I get to see all of the processes and decisions that are being made by the students and teacher. I also got to participate in some voting for the theme of the yearbook. This year's theme is: Our Journey. It's going to be really awesome. We have the cover of the page in the school color: purple, and the writing is silver. It will say "Our Journey..." and in the next page it will say "...begins here" with a picture that Jacob, a student, created. Jacob is very creative so he created a purple picture with different shades of a pathway, because of our theme. It was a great picture! Jacob and I are the only ones in the journalism class that have been asked to participate in the yearbook classes. And we are very excited to be involved! And very surprised that our teacher asked us to join!

The BSU Game and Halloween

A couple of weeks ago, Megan, Shelby, Dad, and I went to our first BSU football game. It was so much fun! The only annoying thing about the game was one annoying guy who would yell at the refs whenever BSU got a penalty. This was actually the first game that I have ever watched the whole way through. My favorite part of the game was when BSU would get a first down. Everytime they would get a first down, the announcer would say, “…And that’s another BSU…” and the crowd would yell, “FIRST DOWN!” That was way cool! While we were at the game, Mom and Whitney went to see Toy Story 3 and said it was very good!

This Halloween, we didn’t go trick-or-treating (again). Instead we went to a movie. We saw The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and it was so good! Although I have liked every movie they have made, Eclipse is my favorite. It’s my favorite because of the rivalry between Edward and Jacob. My favorite character in there was Emmett, though. He definitely had some good lines! Overall, it was a good Halloween, and we got to spend it with each other. Megan and Shelby were home, Dad wasn’t working, and Mom wasn’t in class! J
