STORY SPINER

As I regained conscientiousness, I remember asking... where am i? All of a sudden all i saw were two bright headlights shining in my eyes and then a dumpster on my right. I was cold and couldn't seem to get warm. My hair was sopping wet. As the car pulled away i could no longer see. I could hardly remember what had happened; however, in the back of my head I could picture exactly what happened in a weird way. I looked around but found no one to blame for the happening. It was when I suddenly realized I was laying in a dark alley in this rainy night. I suddenly noticed I was in great danger and I needed to get out of there. I jumped up as quickly as I could and ran to the nearest vestibule and then realized it was locked. So I looked for the other option out when someone came speeding out of the corner, me being how stubborn I am didn't run, and stayed to see what was going to happen even if I was in any danger.

FABSUGAR

Bella the Beast

Ok, well since I'm the only child in my family I'm extra spoiled and always get what I want; however, lately there is something totally wrong going on. My owner, Regina has been very grippy at me, its like she doesn't care for me anymore. To top it all off she has been giving me CAN FOOD! Can you believe that?, thats just outrageous and I can't believe she would ever do that to me. I seriously don't know what her problem is..I haven't done anything wrong I still go outside to use the restroom and I hardly shed anymore. She wakes me up so early now and doesn't even take me to get my pedicure and manicure! How CRAZY is that! So I don't know what to do anymore and instead of being happy I'm always in a grippy mood just like her!

Letter to Me

Dear Me,

As I freeze frame time in this moment of my life I wonder many things about my life. Some are good and some I don't even want to know the answers to. However, as I'm reading this in 13 years or so I hope that all my questions and all my dreams have been answered and all my dreams came true. I know when I open this letter I will have memories of writing it just sitting behind Seth looking at his hair because I didn't know how to start it and sitting next to Tanner watching him type like its nothing to him. That rush of adrenaline at the time I open this wishing I could be back in time.

I know right now I wonder about many things I wish to know at the moment like, who will I be married to? How many kids? and where am I gonna live? At the same time I still have many other things I ask myself that I don't want to find out...am I gonna be fat? Will I be happy with my life? I think that time will tell what happens and I know that right now I think I'm going through some hard situations and that I'm working hard for what I want to achieve but when I look back and read this I will know it was all worth it. Right now I plan to graduate from high school and go on into college to pursue my career as an x-ray tech hopefully it will all work out the way I want it to. Well I guess that for now I just have to live my life to the fullest and see what time has in store for me!

Coach Rhodes! (:

Hmmm....what can I say about Coach Rhodes, well first of all i love him without him it wouldn't be the same here what-so-ever! But I think that my favorite memory was when one day i was chewing my gum like crazy poppin bubbles until he told me to stop. I automatically stopped but then 5 minutes later he caught me again. This time he was serious and with a straight face said "Duran...what did i tell you about that gum..? know go get the dictionary and copy a page any page out." At the time i didn't really like it but now that i think about it, it makes me laugh!

The Fairy Tale (:

Far, far away from any civilization except his own kingdom lived a young, drop dead gorgeous prince with the most perfect shiny smile and sky blue eyes that can make you daydream like no other. In his own little kingdom people knew him as the most kindhearted one of all, their Lord. Prince Ian had everything anybody could ever wish to have from all the ladylike ladies to the biggest fortune in the world. However, all this didn't change the way he felt about his life: depressing, lonely, insufficient, and even rejected. Although he could have any gal he wanted it seemed like they had made it impossible for him to find his true and only one. Prince Ian always had many affairs with different kinds of women but there was never a spark that could make him weak to his knees, speechless, butterflies in his stomach, and make him smile whenever somebody said her name like he had wished for. Until one day he was walking down his long, wide bridge down by the lake when suddenly he saw somebody that caught his eye at the other end of the bridge. It was somebody he had never spotted before, she seemed so perfect like a diamond on a ring. "Who was she, where, why?" Where his immediate questions that came to mind. After finally deciding to go talk to this diamond fallen from the sky Prince Ian realized that for the first time his knees where shaking like crazy that he could barely keep walking straight. He loved the feeling that maybe this wonder-women could be his long lost love he had been searching for eternities. When he finally arrived at the end of the bridge he stared deep into her clear like eyes that made him have the biggest smile ever. Introducing himself as Ian she introduced herself as Abby. Together they took a stroll through all the kingdom talking and talking about their life and their families was when Prince Ian knew he finally had everything any man can ask for.

Swine flu..??

Hmmm...the Swine Flu is causing a serious turmoil in our world today. Its something that can be very dangerous and needs to be seen by the doctor as soon as possible. This infection can spread rapidly through people without you even knowing. From just coughing, drinking after another person, and just even touching a door knob can make you sick. So I think that even if you feel like your getting some symptoms that you don't like you should go get it checked out...just to be on the safe side. (: And people just to be on the safe side to make sure you cover your mouth with a tissue every time you cough or sneeze, and WASH your hand often with soap and water.

Beowulf the Improved

The Wrath of Grendel

A mythical creature living down in the dimness, impatient as every day passes by he could hear the music ringing loud in the hall, as Hrothgar's men lived happy in his hall till the monster stirred, that fiend, Grendel. It was finally when darkness fell, that Grendel took revenge, pulling out his one of a kind iphone, whom he was really proud of, started locating on the Herot Hall. Grendel quietly slipped through the gigantic doors grabbed thirty men, violently smashed them and ran out with their bodies, every drop of blood dripping behind him. As day came and everybody in the hall was surprised to see the happening everybody's day was long lasting, filled with tears for the dead.

So Grendel ruled, fought with the righteous, One against many, and won; so Herot stood empty, and stayed deserted for years for Hrothgar, king of the Danes, with sorrow at his door he had to find something to get his mind off of it. So sitting in his room playing with his Wii was when he forget about the disaster, not for long though. As mankind's enemy continued his crimes, killing as often as he could, coming alone, bloodthirsty and horrible.

The Coming of Beowulf

In his far-off home Higlac was on his laptop and read on his myspace the terror that Hrothgar's kingdom was going through he quickly commanded a boat fitted out and would send help when needed. So Beowulf chose the mightiest men he could find, and led them down to their boat. When arriving the Geats jumped to the ground, pushing their boat to the sand and tied it in place. As a Danish watchmen patrolling along the cliffs saw the travelers crossing to the shore, wondering why they landed and who's soldiers where they. Pulling out his pager to page King Hrothgar's of the happening. It was when Beowulf told him everything about him, who his father was, and what they were here for. The watchmen were gracious for the answer to their prayers and took the Geats up to the castle.

The Battle with Grendel

It finally came to the night that Beowulf and his men take the place of Hrothgar and the Danes inside Herot. Beowulf laying there, ready to meet Grendel with his Bazooka. When Grendel arrived and snatched at the first Geat, ripping him apart, cutting his body to bits with powerful jaw. Drinking the blood from his veins and bolted him down, hands and feet. Stepping to another body, clutching at Beowulf with his claws, grasped at a strong-hearted wakeful sleeper, the battle was on! Beowulf banged and smashed Grendel until he finally got a grip of his arm and completely ripped it off to hang on the Kingdom for everybody to see his triumph

The Monsters' Lair

When Grendel's mom realized what had gone down with her son. She suddenly got furious and frustrated that her son was dying and his arm was hanging like a souvenir. So she quickly went to the castle and violently took it without anything holding her back.

The Battle with Grendel's Mother

Beowulf resolves to kill the “lady monster.” Considering that it might be the last battle he would fight in his life Beowulf fought with all his might. When he noticed that no sword could slice her evil skin for she had watched a DVD on how to fight with all her might. It was when Beowulf saw a huge sword heavier than anything before and maybe that would be the one to slice her. Picked it up with all his strength he had left, caught her in the neck and cut it through, broke bones and all.

When all the wise old warriors who surrounded Hrothgar, like him staring into the monsters’ lake, saw the waves surging and blood spurting through. They spoke about Beowulf, whispering together how hope was gone. When one of the Whitebeards knew hope was gone he got in his 2010 Challenger and headed back to the hall. While the Geats stayed, sat sadly, watching, imagining they saw their lord but not believing they would ever see him again. When out of nowhere the noble protector of all men swam to land, rejoicing the heavy burdens he was bringing with him. He and all his glorious band of Geats thanked God that their leader had come back unharmed. Walking into the hall covered in glory for the daring battles their lord had fought; he sought Hrothgar to salute him and show Grendel’s head. Brought it straight to where the Danes sat, and at the time it was a weird but wonderful sight, as the warrior stared.

The Last Battle

After being honored by Hrothgar; Beowulf and his Geats returned home, welcomed by the king, his uncle Higlac, and later becoming king himself. Ruling Geatland for fifty years until a dragon menaces his kingdom. Determined to slay the beast, he tells his men “I’ve never known fear, as a youth I fought in endless battles.” Beowulf fighting and showing all his courage noticed there was no possibility he was going to make it out of here alive. The soldiers noticed that to and didn’t want to stay there to be next, so getting on all there motorcycles they took off knowing they were betraying Beowulf. The only soldier that still stood as brave as possible was Wiglaf. He realized he had a hi-tech camera and he figured that the flash of it would make the dragon go blind, giving them a few seconds to attack him.

The Spoils

Together, Wiglaf and Beowulf kill the dragon, but the old king is mortally wounded. As a last request, Beowulf asks Wiglaf to bring him the treasure that the dragon was guarding. As doing as said he came back and found him bloody, gasping for breath. As the brave king gave the golden necklace from around his throat to Wiglaf, and ordered him to use them well; “You’re the last of all our far-flung family.”

The Farewell

Wiglaf denounces the soldiers who deserted Beowulf in his combat with the dragon. The Geats burn their king’s body on a great funeral pyre and bitterly lament his death. The Geats built the tower, as Beowulf asked, strong and tall. For ten long days they made his monument, sealted his ashes in walls as straight and high as wise and willing hands could raise them. As Beowulf’s follwers rode, mourning their beloved leader, crying that no better king had ever lived, no prince so mild, no mad so open to his people, so deserving of praise. It was when one of the soldiers lit the fireworks.

Future (=

Ok so yeah I know that right now I'm only 17 but I kinda already have what I hope my future will be like. Of course I'm planning to be a radiologist and be good at it but I also want to get married with the love of my life and have a family. For that first and foremost I have to find the right guy who steals my heart away. I would want him to have a good job, I consider that to be one of the main reason. Of course a little tall, tannish skin, drop dead gorgeous eyes, with light brown hair won't hurt to have either. ;)

For my future I also want to live in a huge house...well ok maybe not that big; however, it could be a two story house with more than 2 bathrooms thats for sure. I want my kids, only two of course that I'm going to have to like their lives and be proud of what their parents have worked hard for. I also think that my parents have a strong influence of what my future has in front of me.

Packed your Parachute

Six people that truly "packed my parachute" would have to be of course my mom and dad, the other four are my granny, my aunt, my cousin Yazmin, and my best friend in the whole world.

But one that really helped me in life and was always there to pack my parachute is my mom. She has helped me through so many situations in life that I would have no clue what to do if she wasn't there to guide me. Although sometimes we get angry at each other and we may not always agree on everything she is always there to catch me when I fall. I have learned so many things from here I just wish I could be half of what she is as a parent. I love her dearly and I know for a fact that she will always be there for me and I will never be to old to be her little girl. (:

Expectations of My Senior Year

For my senior year I have a lot of expectations but one of the most important to me would have to be to enjoy it with my classmates because you might never see them again. Of course I have a load of other expectations like passing all my classes, and to come out of high school as a better person in life. Senior year is going to be bunches of fun if you can have a blast without getting in any trouble. Hopefully my senior year will be way above my expectations.
