Minocqua
Ove mid-winter breakI am going to Minocqua. We stay at the Waters Resort and have a blast!! My dad has a client up there, so when we go up there my dad meets with them so my dad doesnt have to drive 4 hours with no one. I can't wait for this weekend. We are going to rent snowmobile's and ride them on the trails. My dad's client said Minocqua is dead in the winter, meaning there is no one there. Last time I went to Minocqua Michael Jackson died! I hope nothing bad happens again this time. Im soo Excited!

Before I Fall
How would you feel if you kept waking up to live the same day over again? Would you feel angry, helpless, confused, or panicky? Would you tell your best friends that you love more than you family? That is how Sam felt in the story Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver. You could be the most popular person in your grade and something like this still happen to you. Even though this is a total fiction story it teaches us the importance of making good decisions.
Even if the beginning of this story is happy and normal, the story takes a quick turn and turns sad. I could not picture what I would do if I would wake up after dying and relive the same day over again. What would you do? Would you freak out or be calm? I would be so confused, it would feel just like déjà vu. I would tell my parents, but I don't think I would tell my friends I would think that they would think I'm crazy. If my parents thought I'm crazy then I have no clue what I would do. I guess I would just think I was dreaming and thought I would wake up the nightmare that I was in. I would try my best to try and figure out what was happening, I would read up on it and if that didn’t work I would go to the doctor. I would try to make it better and stop. If none of that works I would sit and think, if I could get out of dying, just like Sam did and then it stopped. Sam jumped for joy with her friends, I would too.
Although I wouldn’t know what to do or how I would tell, Sam got out of it. Sam didn’t tell her friends, but I think Sam's friends were getting suspicious of her. Sam's best friends are the best ever, but they lead each other to make bad choices. Almost everybody at this high school drinks alcohol and/or smokes. Every body goes to parties and get drunk. In fact at this party is where Sam and her friends all die in a car crash and then wake up the next day. Do all of Sam's friends have the same problem that Sam does? Then after Sam didn’t go to the party she didn’t die so her life went on. But that night they woke up from phones ringing of the hook. It was the neighbor of one of the girls that Sam and her friends hated and bullied, she killed her self. She shot herself in the head. They cant believe it. What would you do in a situation like that? Would you still be their friend? Would you tell them to not be so mean? What would you do?
If I could achieve all that Sam did I would be very happy with myself. In this story Sam achieved many things, such as making better decisions by quitting smoking and not accepting alcohol at the age of 18. Over all I feel this book left a great impact on me. It taught me what harmful things alcohol and smoking can do to you. Also it taught me just to have fun in life and cherish what we have. I believe everyone should read this book. Just think, close your eyes and think, what would you do if you lived the same day over again?

The Best Summer Ever
It's summer vacation and your parents say "If we could go anywhere, where would you want to go? It's your choice where you would go. Pick. Make it a good one." I responded "Let's go to Florida, no Hawaii, or Belize, maybe Jamaica." All of the places are the most beautiful places ever. In the end of it I choose to go to Hawaii because I have never been there.
The plane ride was longer than ever! When we got off, I screamed and stretched out. I look up and my mouth dropped. I saw the biggest and most beautiful volcano ever!! I couldn't believe I was here. I went into my hotel and my room was huge. It was the best ever!! I whirlpool and also a great view. I jumped on the bed like crazy and got all happy and then we went out to eat.
The next day we went hiking and it was so awesome. I couldn't believe I was there. It was the prettiest thing ever and then I saw it the volcano. It was steaming and it was so huge!! I was technically on the bottom of it! I wanted to climb it but we had reservations so we had to head back. We ate and the food was better than ever!!
The next day we left. the plane ride was very long, even longer than the way there. I loved every minute of it. Best Summer Ever!!

PACKERS!!!!
I am so excited for the superbowl! Packers are going to be amazing ( I hope). Why should you cheer for the Packers? Because they want their trophy back, the Vince Lombardi trophy. Vince Lombardi and Earl "Curly" Lambeau lead the Packers to win the first two superbowls. Green Bay is named #1 for the biggest homefield advantage. What else is so amazing about the Green Bay Packers? Curly Lambeau lead the Packers to win 6 championships, a record. The Pitsburg Steelers and the Green Bay Packers are tied for 1st in the NFL ranking for the best fans, and Green Bay has a populoation of only 101,025 people, with Pitsburg having 308,689 people.

Snow day
We had a snow day yesterday! It was so fun, I watched movies, ate a lot, shoveled and played in the snow! I built a fort but it was all drifted in by the end of the day :(. It was pretty cool and the had chairs and little cubbies. It was so fun to make and I was disapointed to find out we couldn't even have fun in it. Anyway, I had so much fun yesterday, but I had to shovel with my brother. My brother has a job at the neighbors house because they are in the Carribean on a cruise, but they had so much snow we had to scrape off like 6 inches of the snow on the top. We had to do that because our snow blower wasn't tall enough. It took us like three hours to finish and my brother was getting paid. All and all I had an awesome day yesterday and I didn;t want to come back today. Atleast it feels like a monday and its friday.

Snow Day
I really want a snow day tomorrow! If i had a snow day i would for sure sleep in. After I get up I would make pancakes and eat them as slow as I can to savor the flavor. After my delicious breakfast I would hang out all day. Playing Wii or XBox 360 with my brother. would not want to sit around all day inside, I would go outside and play in the snow. I would have to make a snowman and fort with my brother. I can't wait for tomorrow. I really want a snow day!!
