My Snow Day :]

Since we don't have anything to blog about I will proceed to ramble on about what I did yesterday on my day off . Well .. I slept in . Because I had the house phone in my room and I heard the phone ring and 5 AM and it was Olympia . So I figured that was the no school call so I rolled over and slept . I finally woke up and decided to go into Bloomington . I went over to Jake's house and watched ghost hunters .. and sponge bob . and I had jimmy john's . which was amazing . Then I went to Heartland to talk to an advisor about graduating early . Which .. is looking good . And then I went home to eat . And then I continued on to be lazy for the rest of the evening . And I took a bath . While listening to Michael Buble . Which again .. amazing . But that is all .

My Childhood Fear

When I was a child I was always afraid of being alone in the dark. I live in one of those big old houses were everything creaks. When I used to go to bed at night I would have to jump onto my bed because I was afraid that if I just walked up to it then I would be pulled under by a monster. When I was downstairs by myself at night and all the lights were off and I'd be going upstairs I'd have to start singing a song to keep my mind off of some kidnapper catching me. That was another thing I was scared of, getting kidnapped. I used to watch Law & Order when I was a kid with my parents. And usually they were about people getting killed and people getting kidnapped. So before I went to bed I'd think of a case scenario of me getting kidnapped and how I would get out. But back to being afraid of the dark. I would have to keep my closet door open. Because if I kept in closed I couldn't see what was inside of it .. like kidnappers . So, over all my biggest child hood fear is being alone in the dark.

Definition of a Poem

I think that a poem is like a short story . I think of poems being about one subject . And usually the author goes in the great detail about the subject . It's more like what that person thinks about the subject, but usually everyone can relate to it . I'm not much for reading poems unless I have to , like in school . Besides the poems I read inclass the other day , I don't think I've read a poem since .. English 2 ?.. I don't like poems because there is never much dialouge . And usually when I read books I skip the parts when the author goes on about nothing . Another reason why I don't like poems is because they usually consist of really big words .. and sometimes they rhyme . And for some reason poems just do not appeal to me .
