I Am

I am honest and outgoing,
I wonder if there is life after death
I hear the breeze in the air
I see the world becoming a better place
I want memories to last forever
I am honest and outgoing.

I pretend that I am awake during math
I feel many different emotions
I touch the clouds in the sky
I worry about the years left until I graduate
I cry when I am lost and confused
I am honest and outgoing

I understand that we are not all perfect
I say how I feel
I dream bigI try things that I'm not sure I will be able to do
I hope that I can always be happy

My Favorite Hoilday

Although winter is my least favorite season, Christmas happens to be my very favorite holiday. It is during the winter break, so we do not have school which means I can relax and enjoy Christmas. One of the things that I look forward to are the Christmas songs and carols that set the Christmas mood. The thought of staying inside the house, baking and drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows makes me feel like the Christmas season is not long enough. Besides getting amazing Christmas presents, spending time and having a wonderful time with family and friends is one of the very exciting things about this holiday. Before Christmas, what I really enjoy doing is shopping for gifts and picking out presents for people. Besides the outrageous and beautiful decorations everywhere I go, the atmostphere is surrounded by Christmas cheer.

The Prey

Walking through the dark forest, she felt someone following her. Fear rose inside her bones as footsteps crunched the dry leaves behind her. As she quickly turned her head around, the last thing she saw was the horrifying man holding a knife that would soon be slashed across her neck.

This Is How I Remember It

In the dining room of a house in California, a little baby girl nearly reaching age one was crawling about, accompanied by her grandmother and her dazed four year old sister. Everything was mellow, while the parents were next door in the kitchen. Just as the grandma entered the kitchen for barely a minute and a half, the thoughtless baby crawls from a few inches from the carpet towards the hard, cold concrete stairs. Her sister moved her eyes to the right and watched cautiously as this happened. ...Truth be told, she was probably too caught up in her own world to actually care about what was happening. At the exact moment the grandma came out 0f the kitchen, the tiny baby fell down the three steep stairs, and hit her head. The rest of the family runs out and panicks, while he sister claimed, "I didn't do it! I DIDN'T DO IT!" As all this was happening, the piercing cry of the baby echoed through the house, and bounced off the ceiling. It was complete chaos. While waiting for the ambulance to come, the child's voice slowly rose up, until it was literally the size of a round lime green tennis ball. When the ambulance finally arrived for what seemed like hours later, the doctors hovered over her as everyone in the family continued to hyperventilate. Fortunately, the baby wasn't vomits, which meant that it was a good sight. When the scene was over, the huge ice was placed on the baby's head, the ambulance left, the cries slowly faded away, and lastly, the tennis ball gradually went down.

Favorite Baby Posession

Out of all my favorite baby posessions that I think back on throughout all my baby years, the one that I specifically loved most was a stuffed animal, which I called Baby. I am not completely sure what exact animal she was, but I do know that I absolutely adored her. I always happened to carry her wherever I went, and she would always be in many of my baby photos. Basically, I could never go anywhere without her. :D
However, one day when I was at the Walt Disney Store with my family, I was so concentrated and fixed on buying Pegasus, the unicorn from Hercules, that when I bought it, I left Baby at the store by mistake. When I eventually realised what I had done, we searched for hours trying to find her. Unfortunately, I never saw her again. :( As the years went by, I tried asking Santa Claus if he could give me Baby back. "He" sadly told me he was not able to do that. Although I no longer have her to remind me of old memories, I still can remember my favorite stuffed animal very clearly.

a vivid memory from kindergarten

Being in kindergarten, there are many memories that I always long to remember. However, one of the things that I distinctly remember is not liking eggs. At all. I especially disliked the shiny yellow circle in the middle that just stared at you. This then leads to the book "I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham" by Dr. Seuss, which I loved to read, along with all his other fascinating stories. While reading all his books, I sometimes imagined and truely thought that I could enter and be part of "Dr. Seuss' world". But I later came to realise that I couldn't, simply because it was non-existent in the real world. I have to admit that I was quite disappointed at first, but I still continued to read his unique stories that made me like books even more. :]

Is someone there?

As I climbed the stairs of my empty house, I had an eerie feeling as each step creaked. I reached the top, and walked down the pitch black hallway- someone was lingering here. I stared towards the door that slowly opened...
and saw my pet cat looking up at me.

Mikan. Seed. Spacestation.

There once was a mikan who came to life. Her name, was a name you would not quite expect from a fruit like this- Mikan :). She was small, round, orange, and very sweet.
One sunny day, as she was walking down the street she crossed paths with a peach who offered her a seed. Mikan ignored the useless offer, and started to walk away. However, the peach stopped Mikan and told her that this seed would take her to space, which was where all the vegetables and fruits longed to go. She instructed Mikan to head towards the spacestation, where the seed would simply take er to space to explore all the planets that were shaped as fruits. Mikan contemplated whether she should take it, and finally made up her mind. She took the seed in her hands, and began to make her way to the spacestation.
When she finally reached her destination, she took the seed from where she kept it. She carefully placed it in her orange hand. She then inhaled, closed her eyes, and got ready to take off into space.

Future Problems

Future Problems...
What have I done to make you come my way?
I certainly did not invite you to tag along while I get through each day.
So tell me, why do you barge into my life uninvited?

It is not like I don't have enough problems to begin with.
It seems that once the old ones are gone, a new set automatically heads toward me.
Occasionally, one or two problems linger with me,
because they cannot bare the thought of leaving me in peace.

Do you all stand patiently in line?
One by one, waiting for the attack?
Oh, future problems,
please just let me be.
