I think my journey begins in the West.  From looking at the descriptions, this most sounds like me.  I look within myself to make sure I’m being the best I can be. My strengths are confidence in my beliefs and being independent.  These strengths help me on my journey because I always look to be myself, and that entails keeping my morals and I think a big part of that is being independent.  Yes, I think I am a partial person.  I do not possess some of the other qualities of the North, East, and South.  I think I lack critical qualities from the North, where I would have a great understanding of life.  Wisdom is more then just book smart.  This is the area I’ll be focusing on.  At the beginning of my journey, my goal was to find all of them but then I realized that the point was to look for medicines that would make me a better person.  I lack qualities from the North, so the medicines I looked for were Courage, Discernment, Wisdom, Strength and Insight.  I knew right away where I could find courage after reading the clue… Mr. Hicks.  I think courage was important for me to find because even though I am confident in what I believe, it’s hard for me to say it out loud.  Next, I looked for discernment, which I found with Padre.  Discernment is defined as the ability to comprehend what is obscure, which is an important part of wisdom. Obviously, my next medicine I had to find, wisdom.  Wisdom was found in the library, where knowledge is obtained. I had a little trouble figuring out the person who carried strength until I went to math class right after english.  Finally, I looked for insight.  Insight is having the power to act on a certain situation.  I think if I had more insight, I’d be able to understand why things happen, which comes along with having wisdom.  So this was my hero journey.  Over all I thought this activity was the best one we’ve done so far.  Not only was it fun, but it had real symbolism on what I actually am looking for in my life.  There’s parts of me I wish were stronger, wish I could keep hidden, and wish I could find within myself.  Everyday I work on these qualities to try and make me be the person I’m meant to be.

one time a friend of mine had the most embarrassing thing happen to her. last winter, we were going to the sean kingston concert (haha) and we decided to get something to eat before.  so we ate and then my friend decided she needed to use the restroom before going to the concert. the line for the ladies room was long, so i told her to go in the boys.  she told me and my other friends to guard the door while she went in, worried that a man would walk in.  in just a few seconds, that fear would come true.  see you should probably know that this bathroom was a one-person room.  anyways it happened in a matter of seconds, the man bursted through the door and it was so fast that my friends and i totally spaced on telling her. the man figured there was a girl in the stall within the bathroom, so he left.  my friend was incredibly embarrassed and almost killed me after, but it was worth a good laugh. bye bye

I saw this live and i thought it was so scary because he had never done the jump before! i’m not usually into this kind of stuff, but this was sweet so check it

NEW YEARS EVE 2008

this has been such a good week! i love spirit week, it makes the week go by so much faster. monday we had steve urkle day. that was really fun because i got to wear suspenders and my pants really high which was very attractive. tuesday we had twin day. i was twins with nicole and we dressed up as the bubblemint twins.  no one probably knew who we were but it was still fun. wednesday we had a SNOW DAY and i was so happy when i woke up. i went sledding all day!! today is thursday and we’re having 80s workout day. i really like this day cause we wear a ton of neon and really cheesy stuff. i’m looking forward to this weekend because its the brebeuf/chatard game and i really hope we win. so long

my favorite time of year has always been winter, but lately i’ve just been getting tired of how cold it is, which really has never happened. I still love when it snows, and how beautiful everything looks, but it’s always hard going into the cold weather.  sometimes i wish that winter would be just one month, with snow on the ground the whole time.  because i feel like i hate the cold weather even more when theres no snow on the ground.  winter just puts you in a bad mood sometimes, but it does make my day waking up to snow on the ground.
