Remembering Summer

So we are finish second quarter, and we have a lot of work, turning in work and midterms..or finals are coming up soon. We have to write more blogs. I was reading one of my friend’s blogs; I realized that one of the posts they have written about is something that I already did. He wants to skydive. Now if we get down to it, I didn’t exactly go skydiving because I didn’t jump off a plane, but I did go indoor skydiving this summer. Indoor skydiving means going in a little room where the walls are covered with a soft layer of….something. There is a fan on the floor and you lay on it; later, the person who controls the fan starts it and you start flying. At first, I’m not going to lie, it’s scary. Once you have started to fly a couple of times you get used to the feeling and start having fun. The best part of the whole experience has to be when the person that is teaching you to fly, grabs your hands and feet as he starts spinning in circles. One day i'll go skydivinf for real, and i'll take my friend with me. J

Friends

There are some people that we have relationships with, where we trust them enough to tell them every different detail of our lives. We sometimes call those people best friends. A best friend to me is someone that I can completely trust. That person has to be someone that I know; a person that…even if we fight ill trust that person enough to know that they won’t tell anybody the details that nobody knows. A best friend for me is someone that I can be completely stupid with and that person won’t judge me. Some one that will tell me if I’m doing something wrong or embarrassing myself or doing something stupid that I would not want anyone else to see. I would have to be able to talk to this person all day or for at least three hours straight on the phone, and not run out of things to talk about. When something bad happens I could tell this person and completely trust their advice or if they don’t have any they would sit with me listen and hug me. it would be someone that was like a sister; a person that you could eventually consider to be your family.

The Night of our Lives.

It wasn’t a concert, it was a night club. We had all thought that we were going to a concert on Saturday night to watch Flo-Rida sing. We watched him sing, we even took videos, but it was no concert. We were staying on a boat, when we went into town we saw that he was in town and decided that we wanted to go. We got the direction of the place where the “concert” was going to be held and just when there the night of. We bought entrances and went inside realizing that it was no concert, it was a club and he was coming to sing at the party. We were four, my sister, two of my best friends, and I. we didn’t know what to do…it was a party and we didn’t know anyone except for two people. We waited until 1 am which was when we got tired of just standing there, so we danced. At 2 am all the singer got to the party and sang until 3 am. We were in the very front row so we were even able to touch these people, my sisters and one of my friends also got autographed towels. We danced like crazy, we pulled an all-nighter. The same night at about 4 one of my friends had to leave for the airport and that same day we has to travel as well. It was a night I’m sure we will never forget. 

Tubing

We say it is fun, but we thought we were going to die. Sure we when tubing before but never like this. When we when tubing before it was fun…it always felt like we were going to fall off, sometime we jumped off just to scare the people who were driving the boat. We were in Dominican Republic because we had October break and it was the day before the last day, we weren’t very happy than the trip was about to be over so we tried to make it the best day that we were going to have. When 3 of my friends were on the tubes, I decided to drive the speed boat and I made the fly off the tube because I stopped then started so fast that they could not catch up with the speed, making them fly off backwards. When one of my friends got tired of being on the tube she switched with me, but she let the sailor drive the speed boat instead, my sister my friend and I we sitting on it and suddenly it starts moving. We got off the sides of the waves so many times that we started to sleep then we weren’t even on the water anymore, we were in the air. The tube stood up completely sideways, I ended up under water and my friend who was on the other side, she fell off, while my sister stayed  in the middle completely perfect and laughing. This was something that I believe scared us for life and we will never forget it.

Trips, Something Always Happens.

The Bahamas, Years ago

A couple of years ago, my family and I went on a boat to the Bahamas. All of my cousins including myself and my sister were pretty young, but we will never forget the day that it happened.  We had been going to beaches that were empty, the only people there was us. My cousins my sister and I were hiding things in the water close to the shore at one of the tiny, clean, and beautiful beaches. We had been wanting to see manta rays since we got there, but we had had no such luck. My closest cousin (that is three month younger than me) and I saw something dark in the water. We got scared so we ran out of the water as fast as we could. My sister on the other hand decided that she wanted to see what this dark thing was, she was so happy; believing it was a manta ray. But it wasn’t. Our aunts and uncles realized what this animal was and started screaming for the rest of us to get out of the water. My sister didn’t listen. She got closer and closer believing it was a manta ray, once she was close enough she realized that this animal in the water was not a manta ray, it was a shark. On her face you could see the panic that overtook her. To this day I don’t understand how she got out of the water so quickly. 

The Book im Reading!

The Story Sisters by Alice Hoffman

                Right now I am reading the book The Story Sisters. This book is very interesting. I am about 150 pages into it, and so far I like it. The book has three characters that are sisters and I think it is kind of weird because they have like their own little world called Arnelle, which also has its language. The sisters didn’t make the language up, they just knew it. I didn’t know who the main character of the story was, but as the story advanced the main character became Elv. Even though the other two sisters, Claire and Meg are still there the life of Elv and what she is going through is explained in more depth. This book is somewhat inappropriate because there is ugly language in it and because some parts are very vivid. Over all I think this book shows that Elv is a teenager that just when out of control and got sent to a behavior school. Meg isn’t very fond of her but Claire on the other hand loves her. They became inseparable the day that a man tried to kidnap Claire but Elv saved her. The man ended up kidnapping Elv, but she managed to escape. If we get to the point I am in (the middle of the story) I like this book. It is something that entertains me and believe it or not, I actually read it when im not in English class. I would lend this book to friends once I'm done reading it, but because I know my friends I would also tell them if they would like it or not. Its their choice to read it.

A New Beginning

A blog…..this is something that I would have never done if this were not my assignment. I don't think that people will read this blog because there are so many out there, but anyways I will write about what happens to me in my everyday life.

To begin with, I am currently in ninth grade. This is my second year at my school (which is international) and I thought that I was going to have trouble making friends, but I was wrong. Things that you should know about me are that I am very social; and even though I don’t like to do my work I take it very seriously. I am a person that has problems like any other person but I always try to make the best out of it. I like to listen to music, a lot; most of the time I have my ipod with me and when I can, I listen to music. My sister has a dog that I really dislike (because it is evil) even though I really don’t dislike dogs. Traveling is something that my family likes to do; we have been to many places even though we have only lived in Florida and Venezuela. We have been everywhere from New York to Singapore. I really love all of my friends and I always say that my sisters are so annoying, but I love them too.

I don’t really know what I want to write about in my blog yet, but it will probably be about my experiences. In my entries I think I will talk about crazy things that have happened to me or my family; most of what I will talk about will be my trips that I have taken, some with friends and some with family. I would also write about things that happened in school, it could be a class that was fun and that made me laugh or it could be about something that friends do that made me smile. I will write about things that are happening or that I find out about and if I agree or disagree with what has happened; if sometimes I am really stuck on what I want to write about then I'll use one of the topics that my English teacher will provide for my entire class.
