8. 5 websites help me

http://www.wikipedia.org/

This website will be successful in my life because I swear wikipedia has all the answer you will find. It has all the definitions you will need of any topic that I came across. As of everyone knows and surely agrees with me that this site is a strong site and quote popular and I think it should keep going.

http://www.peta.org/

On this website, this is one of my absolute favourites because it is extremely against animal cruelty and testing. Which as I am strongly against so for this site I plan to keep in mind if I ever need help to come across this site and help support them too. As well if you are interested in to what products they have that they use animals tested on. Every product should say wether it's been used for animals, let a lone the site helps out your questions on it.

http://www.blogger.com/

Blogger is a great source to put up how you feel towards something strongly and to help others learn big things across the world. Which I think is great because for one I'm strongly huge for animal testing and I believe this is a great way to show people how I feel towards it and also to educate everyone who visit my blog.

http://www.gmail.com/

Gmail is another great way of keeping contact with everyone and keeping everything important safe. I am new to gmail but I'm satisfied with how it works and the layout is terrific.

Seriously?

Scratch & Dent Dreams--Slam Poetry

I think this subject covers a lot towards what we are discussing in English. Dreams are your own choice I do believe we should make the right choices and possibly reasonable choices. But you should do something You want to do and something you will Love to do.

Ryan Tedder Interview

Ryan Tedder's Animal Birth Control Ad

9. What I want to do but may not

One thing that I've been wanting to do so very eagerly is STOP animal testing. It would be a miracle to stop this situation because I cannot stand hearing and seeing these animals being tested on for products that we already have enough of. What gives YOU the right to USE these animals and to TREAT them like their a piece of nothing. Just because they have no words to speak our language WILL never give you the right to kill these animals for money. It would be a huge dream to stop this cause, not only is it all over the world for one which would be crazy to travel everywhere but also how I would get very popular with the media which isn't what I'm aiming for I would only try to stop this to save the animals who have NO choice whatsoever to live and they are tortured and used for products and what not. As I'm sure it's obvious to why I want to do this because I am a huge animal lover yes but also I believe animals have their rights like I said just because they can't speak our language doesn't give us a right to kill them and be used for products. I would try my best to save the animals and put them out of their misery.
I don't know why I would want to be the one out of everyone to stop this because its legal to do this kind of thing but I can't even understand why... now I'm not saying this because animals are cute and fluffy. I would save ALL animals no matter what condition or what they look like, looks should never come first I hope you know they poor thing has a heart and has feelings just like we do. And this is a problem where doctors think animals don't have feelings.
Here is my questions for those doctors out there who don't understand how animals have feelings..
If a dog or animal have any feelings why do they yelp if you step on their tale?
How could you kill an animal? Isn't that next to killing all things I mean to kill is a big thing to do ending a creatures life. Next thing you know they're killing humans.. hmm?
Yes they are scientist but if I was a scientist I wouldn't use a living "product" I'd go find something else to use.
Common' .. seriously now?

1. Journal

      The word of the day today is 'Life' and when life comes to mind I automatically think green. Life reminds me of wilderness and how life can actually be perfect. But knowing it isn't is not very satisfying and what is underestimated with life is people think life is great when we live in our homes only worrying about ourselves when really there is over a biollion things to worry about. But none of us seem to care. Life comes to this as we should really looking at life and realizing what life and reality has done. Reality is what the life has come to and life should be a lot more to it, but we all just don't see.

      What I learned new today was when trying to forgive someone while they keep repeating what they do wrong is very unlikely. Now you think it probably be the correct way of trying to talk to that person that continues the wrong idea.
Remember that sometimes people have tried to talk to them but they actually don't listen to you and think that they are right. But I learnt to forgive anyways but that person lost a really close relationship and they need time to think to themselves about what they have done. Some times it takes patience and knowledge to let them know. Yes. But you can't always give them knowledge when they just don't cooperate.

      Connections that I have made to my own life is I drastically changed from grade 9 to grade 10. I use to be all about me which we all are including me still. But I'm a lot less and I do listen to others not only me. I changed the way I think about others and I have completely changed from being so small in a box to think outside the box.

5. The way to Live my Life

To live your life is one thing but the way to live your life is another thing. I plan to live a life but I don't really know how my life is going to turn out I have things that I'd love to have set in my life to happen. But you don't know if they are always going to happen.

I plan to graduate as I know of which is this year at the end and finish, I hope to work before I graduate to raise some money for schooling if I can if not I'll just keep saving. I really want to continue doing missionary work because I love doing them. Not only for the good cause of doing them but to meet people all around. I hear it's a religious thing but non religious people can do so to, my mission trip last year in Mexico someone asked me if I'm Christian or Orthodox and I told them no I'm not, then they told me straight up I don't belong here. I asked that person..then why am I here? They didn't know what to say.
I want people to understand that we are given all these opportunities to experience this huge events and plan we can make. And to create such ideas that really reflect on other humans lives. If people had idols that were clearly reasonable rather than "Paris Hilton" I think everyone would get to the point that there is more to life than what we think.

We all belong somewhere in this HUGE world we just got to find the right spot. I believe there is more than enough options out there and especially the opportunities we have not even seen!

I plan to have a family of my own but I plan not to get married till in my late 20's or even early 30's I believe they last longer because when you run off and get married you don't really realize what you are actually going to have to do while you are married. 

Mission Statement

The life I plan to live is learning through peoples mistakes and I am not perfect; therefore, I do make my own mistakes. But that is how I hope someone else will learn to live and follow. I have passion for creativity from the abstract mind I was given and I plan to use it for others to gain inspiration. I would love to make a difference for those who suffer because I can relate in a small sense and I'm sure we all can. But a part of me hates to see others suffer so I intentionally plan for myself to make a great impact for those who suffer by using the creativity I was given to inspire. People deserve to be happy and to realize that, they need to find it within themselves and when they find that true happiness inside that will fulfill my happiness. 

6. 5 things I wouldn't do to you

1. I plan to try and never judge him/her without knowing him/her. Why?
If you are going to judge someone because they smell or wearing certain clothing or their typical style and then leave them and never talk to them I don't think that's right. I know we all do it but there is a lot to a person than what they look like. For instance someone looks fantastic they dress in style they look great and you want to be their friend so bad that you do anything but yet they are the meanest and rude person you have ever met. Would you do that? You know you've done it.
2. I don't think I would cheat on my best friend as much as I might love him dearly I honestly believe I wouldn't cross that line with a friend that I should keep forever rather than just a boy.
3. I will always support my family no matter what condition they are in and what mistake they make. Family is family and always will be. Unless they turn out to be a serial killer then possibly things would change.
4. I don't plan to ignore any animals that come my way if they are lost on the streets. I know it's not my responsibility to take care but I can take responsibility towards saving a life.
5. I don't plan to run away and fall in love and get married at a young age and have children so young because I've seen enough of that happen in this world and I think I've realized the damage and affect it caused on other people. Also I plan to have a family and to be a great mom.

4. My last one minute of my life

So my life is over and in this one minute of my life I get to replay something. That something would be with my dad, honestly I'd have to say many summers ago my family and I went camping out at Texada Island. And on one night I just couldn't sleep and I was afraid I came out of my tent and I went up to my parents and asked if I could stay up for a bit. Intending that they did was great but rather than me just sitting there listening my dad took me to the beach at night and we sat there together and just listened to the waves crash and the crickets cricketing and the grass was whistling. He stayed there with me until I feel asleep. That for one is one of my most memorable memories with my dad that I will never forget.

And right now in my time of life I don't do anything like that anymore even when I'm older does it really matter? No I don't think so whatever age it is I can still do things like that with my parents. 

Why I chose it? Well I chose it because I never do things with my dad..and he changed into someone else I don't even know. 

I actually have a second one out of these two I really have no clue which one would come first cause they are both equal. But in 2009 I went on a missions trip to Mexico and I met a young boy at an orphanage named Oscar. He meant over the top to me and out of everything I did with him the one memory that stood out was when we were sitting around the campfire and he came and sat next to me and cuddled up to me. Then he said something like this in Mexican "Puedes ser mi mamá?" 

I asked "pardon?" even though I think I somewhat understood. He said, "you my mom?" 

I wanted to take Oscar with me you have no idea what it's like to have a orphan boy who lived through poverty and his parents through him on the street and now lives at an orphanage and now is asking YOU to be his mom..to take him.

But I promised him I would come back to see him so if I could I would repeat that in my life just to see him again. 

11. Inspirational Song

One republic - Say all I need                                            

Do you know where your heart is?
Do you think you can find it?
Or did you trade it for something
Somewhere better just to have it?
Do you know where your love is?
Do you think that you lost it?
You felt it so strong, but
Nothing's turned out how you wanted

Well, bless my soul
You're a lonely soul
Cause you won't let go
Of anything you hold

Well, all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

Do you know what your fate is?
And are you trying to shake it?
You're doing your best and
Your best look
You're praying that you make it

Well, bless my soul
You're a lonely soul
Cause you won't let go
Of anything you hold

Well, all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

I said I all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

Do you think you can find it?
Do you think you can find it?
Do you think you can find it?
Better than you had it
Do you think you can find it?
Do you think you can find it?
Do you think you can find it?
Yeah, better than you had it (Better than you had it)

I said I all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

I said I all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

Whenever the end is
Do you think you can see it?
Well, until you get there
Go on, go ahead and scream it
Just say it

This song has stood out a lot to me and not only do I say that but if you read the lyrics and understand what he is saying it actually makes a lot of sense. This song means is what we all really have is what we really don't need. Ryan Tedder the singer is saying he only need the things we get for nothing things to help us survive. And I love that about him and this song because he is quite a famous band but he sings great songs that relate to this. And I wish for people to acutally understand that we have all these things but we really don't need them all. Here I wrote an reply to this song.

If everyone heard your voice
Especially the way I do
We would all here this noise
Instead of acting like fools

I'm not a very good poet
but I really want people to see what you wrote
so we need to stop being so morbid
and be thankful for what we have
