Right now I'm reading this really cool book called, Ghostgirl. It's about a girl who chokes on a gummy bear and dies. Yeah, I know that's kind of a pathetic way to die of. Though, she doesn't remember dying until she sees her body lying there lifeless. She can see everyone and hear them as well, but nobody sees her. Only one girl, Scarlet. Scarlet and her spend a lot of time bonding and Charlotte, the girl who died, posses Scarlet to accomplish her mission in life. Which is to stand out. They go through a lot of problems, but at the end they end up going to the Fall Ball, which is where Charlotte was supposed to be at to accomplish her mission and kiss her crush as Scarlet, but that didn't go as expected. Instead, she didn't get the kiss to help out Scarlet who was in danger. Though that was her mission, to stand out and help a friend in need. She didn't have to be popular or fit in, all she had to do is stand out.

"R. I. P. 'Rest In Popularity'"


"Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
And if I should die before I wake,
I pray the popular attend my wake."

9/16/08: North Texas Foodbank

Being at the North Texas Food bank was fun. We all had a goal set to ourselves and all of us together made it. We made over 130 boxes which each box had 7 bags to feed children that need food over the weekend. So in total we helped feed over 900 kids. Just knowing that you've done that makes you feel good. Though what probably helped us reach that goal was working together. At first you start out slow, but after getting some practice you start working at a better pace. Though, after knowing what you've done for other people, it makes you feel better that you've helped other children that need the food over the weekend.

My Faveorite: 9/10/08

My favorite things to do during my free time is either write, listen to music, talk to friends, or read. I've liked writing ever since last year that my friend Kristina got me into it. Right now, I have about 7 stories written so far. Three of them are done, and two of them are sequels. The rest aren't finished, but are in the process of being finished. The types of stories I like to write most are, One shots. One shots are stories that are only one chapter but tell a whole story. Usually what I do to get that short story, is listen to music and whatever theme comes to mind, is what I write. Like I said too, Music is my other favorite thing. Every time I have a bad day or something, I just plug in my headphones and listen to my favorite bands, which would consist of, The Maine, Every Avenue, Tokio Hotel and Jonas Brothers. They each have songs that usually fit your mood. It's just fin listening to music and writing at the same time. It may be hard at times, but afterwards you get used to it. If you like doing both, I recommend you do drabbles.

September 2, 2008

Three day weekends are the best, especially since you have an extra day to do anything you want. Saturday consisted of going to the mall with my friend Astrid. I got a new shirt from Hot Topic, which I adored, even though I don't really listen to the band that's on the shirt as much. Basically, that was my Saturday. On Sunday, I didn't do much, but stayed home and help my mom around the house. Now Monday was a bit more exciting. My mom bought some of the things to make what we call, 'Frijoles Charros.' We invited all of our family members, except two of them, since they decided to go to the lake. All my cousins, aunt's and uncles were there, including my grandma. We ate some 'Fajitas,' which were really good. Afterwards, I smelled like the smoke of the meat, since my dad put me in charge of the meat, so that it wouldn't burn. My cousin, Lissette, bought me 2 new shirts. They were both PINK... a color I'm not used to wearing, but I actually liked the design on it, so I wore them today. That was pretty much all my weekend.
I heart Bill! (:
