My Dogs

      So today for my writing prompt I am suppose to write about an animal that I love. I have two dogs they are both white with brown patches. So it only tells me to write about one animal that I love but, I have two. You can not leave one dog out of the picture that is just not nice.
      My oldest dog is Nola she is the best. She is probably the best dog you will ever meet. She is like a giant teddy bear. She is an American Bulldog, which by the way is my favorite type of dog even though I love them all. She is white with a brown patch on the top of her head. She is missing a few teeth in her mouth because she likes to go out into the yard and chew on rocks. Don't ask me why, she is kind of crazy like that but you've gotta love her. I tell her not to chew rocks because she does not need them. She is a little on the heavier side, like I said she is like a giant teddy bear. Everyone likes to call her fat, but in my family we like to call her healthy. We picked her up in Missouri and some people had bought her before us but they brought her back, which is something I do not understand. Where she lived before her home now was not the best place and she was in a metal fenced cage and the laundry line kept hitting it. She is a really shy dog and scared of a lot of things, so we baby her because she is a big old baby. But she is great I will love her forever.
      Now the other one on the hand she is so great but I still love her because she is ours. Her name is Diva. She is a spaz, crazy, what ever wanna call her but she is nuts. She is pretty weird looking but then sometimes if you just look her in the eyes she can be kind of cute. It is crazy it is almost like she was breed between and boxer and a goat. It is crazy how much she look like a goat but she wasn't. She never shuts up even when we give her the fullest attention. She has a hole in her tongue from getting run over by a car at her old home. Anytime she gets super excited and you touch her she pees, but I guess that is from when she got hit it messed with her bladder. But through all of her flaw we still love her to death.

The 4th of July!

I am sure I am not the only blogger out there doing this topic today, but I felt like it was a good fit. With today being the 4th of July, mostly everyone in the country was probably celebrating in some fashion. Some people buy a lot of fireworks and have big parties, and others simply have family over and enjoy each other.
With me though, I would say I had an amazing 4th of July. I had went over to my boyfriend's house, and we made a lot of food, and cut up a lot of fruit and made some fruit trays for his neighbor's party. We all went over there and they cooked a crazy amount of food. They cooked hot dogs and hamburgers, and had so many chips and snacks and drinks to go along with them. After we all ate, everyone got into their pool and swam until they could not swim anymore.
After everyone had gotten their fill of swimming and food, they all packed up everything and went next door to my boyfriend's other neighbors.
By the time we all had gotten there and set up, it was just about dark so some of the adults started to get all of the fireworks rounded up and set up. There were so many fireworks; it was ridiculous. They were going off left and right, and it seemed as though they would not stop. My favorite part was after all of the big ones ended, and all of the little kids started to light off their fireworks. My boyfriend's little niece was the cutest out of all of them. She is only about 4, and is so adorable. She had sparklers in each hand, and she was twirling them around in the air and was laughing, and having such a great time. I would definitely have to put this as one of the better, if not best 4th of July's that I have ever been to. I can not wait to see what all with happen next year!

Vacation!

This summer I went on vacation to Destin, Florida with my boyfriend and his family. It was my boyfriend Chatang, and his sister and her family. It was one of the best vacations I have ever been on. We went to Destin, Florida. We stayed in an awesome house, it was so beautiful. It was a two story condo with a huge kitchen and awesome sized bedrooms. I stayed with my boyfriend's niece. Her name is Logann. She is one of the cutest four year old's you will ever meet. She is also quite hilarious because she is super smart and also has a high pitched voice. One of the best parts about the vacation was how we were driving down the main road of Destin, and we had all the windows rolled down in the car and we were yelling random stuff. We also called it our "best Missouri calls". We joked about this almost all of the vacation just because it was so funny at the time. The funniest thing about that night was Logann. She made some of the best noises and also some of the loudest ones as well.
On vacation, that was not the only fun we had. Actually to be precise, close to every second we were there was amazing. Some of the nights we were there, we would wait for the sun to go down and we all would grab our nets and head down to the beach. We would scour the shore and look for sand crabs and other crawly things on the beach to catch as well.
Another thing that was great about Destin was the quality time I got to spend with my boyfriend and his family. There were several different times while we were there that him and I would go to the different shopping malls or outlets malls and walk around for hours, and then maybe get a bite to eat. Also a couple of nights we were there for dinner, we would go out to eat, and would try out different places. Most of them were very good, but there were a few that we could have skipped. There were also the few that were extremely good, but the were definitely over priced. Overall, they were all so good.
Last but not least, I can not forget to talk about the beach. That was where we all spent most of the time at, and I was not complaining at all. Most of the days we were there, there were red flags along the beach, which meant that the water was dangerous to be in, but not so that you could not swim in it. Other than that, we all were in the water most of the time, or we would be on the beach. My favorite spot was right in front of our tent. I would lay my towel down on the sand and just let my body cook in the sun. Tanning is one of my favorite things to do when I am outside by the water. Even though I do not normally burn, the sun was still so hot that everyone did end up burning pretty bad beside Logann. The worst of all was my boyfriend though. It seemed like every day after we got back from the beach, no matter how much sunscreen he put on, he would still be a lobster.
Vacation this summer was by far my favorite vacation I have ever been on though, and I hope we go back year after year, because it will only get better each time.

A Perfect Vacation

My idea of a perfect vacation would probably be to travel all of Europe. I have wanted to go to Europe for a long time. I would love to travel to Italy and see all of the old Italian buildings. I have always dreamed of riding in a gondola boat under an Italian bridge in the city. Art is my thing I find it very relaxing and it frees my mind. So with that being said, seeing all of the old art museums would be amazing, seeing all of the famous painting form forever ago would be a dream of mine. Also in Europe I would like to see the Eiffel Tower just as many others do. I am a big Italian food eater, so I would love to try their Italian to compare it to ours but I mean we all know would win there. Paris, France is like every girls dream, I mean it is shopping central there. But if I really had to choose between shopping or the art I would definitely choose the art that is just more fascinating to mean.

Other places I would like to travel in Europe would be Spain, Sweden, Greece, and Germany. I would have a full trip ahead of me if I ever did something like this. But just all of the culture between all of these places is so great. I know I can learn about it all in school, and I have. But just to go there and actually to see in person all of the stuff that you read, and see pictures about in history class would be so unbelievable. Just to feel like you are in a different time period is would would be so interesting. Being away from everything that we have now and seeing everything that they had back then but with a different culture is so amazing. This would definitely be my ideal of a perfect vacation. But to be completely honest to go anywhere would be a perfect trip.

The Life as a TV Remote...

It was so nice and lovely sitting on the arm of the couch. I was sitting there all alone when a big greasy hand came from above and picked me up. It was like nothing I had ever experienced before. To be completely honest, I was actually terrified and scared for my life. The big creature held me firm in his hand, and started to press all of my buttons very hard while he kept pointing me at the big square thing towards the wall. At first I thought that I was going to die. I was so confused and lost, that I sort of went with it and was hoping it would all end soon. 
The thing kept at me for a little longer, and then as soon as it started it had stopped. Whatever it was that had tormented me like that, had suddenly vanished from my sight. I could hear noises coming from the mysterious square in front of me, and there were also moving pictures on it as well. Just as I was finally settling down, the thing took me by surprise again, and did exactly what it had just finished doing. It did not seem to last as long as the last time, but I was still scared for my life. Although this time after it finished with me, instead of putting me down nicely, I was tossed across the room at breakneck speeds. It felt like I was going a million miles an hour, and I could not even tell if I was up or down, or even where I was going to land. When I did land though, I hit with such a violent force. Stars came across my sight, and the room slowly faded dark as I slipped down to my doom.
As I awoke, I was not able to move at all. I was not for sure if it was the fear from what had just happened, or whether I was actually hurt or not. Another thing that I noticed was the pitch blackness. I was terrified. I could feel something pressed on all sides of me. Then I realized that I was not in fact dead, but I was wedged between the coach cushions across the room. I remembered one thing in specific though before I was tossed, "GSN". I was trying so hard to think of what exactly that meant. I thought maybe if I figured out what it meant, then I would somehow find a way out and I would be free. I thought and thought, and when I almost gave up I heard it come from the talking square, and it said, "the Game Show Network". When I heard it, I was not for sure of what to think. I tried to say it, but nothing would come out. 
I soon came to realize that it did not actually mean anything at all. It had turned out that the giant beast had left, and I was stuck listening to the Game Show Network for hours upon hours. It was almost to the point to where I could not take it anymore when I saw a glimmer of light shine on me. It did not really matter to me what it was, just as long as it would let me free from this trap I was in. Just as I saw the light again for the second time, a couple of huge fleshy fingers came down into the couch and took hold of me and squeezed me. To my realization though, I learned that it did not scare me anymore, and it did not even hurt as well. I was so relieved to be rescued from that trap that I was willing to live with the giant. Now anytime the giant comes to pick me up, I am more than happy and willing to find anything that it might desire.

Things Worth Saving......

  1. Pictures
  2. Animals
  3. People
  4. Collectables
  5. Some of my clothes so I am never without something to wear.
  6.  Food
  7. Money
  8. Jewelry
  9. Water
  10.  Artwork
The thing that I would want to save more than anything are pictures. In my own opinion, pictures speak more than anything else. They capture all the emotions in that moment, and hold them for a lifetime. Anytime I want to get cheered up or think of good times, all I have to do is go to my photo album and look through and instantly I am filled with joy and I am flooded with all the memories. The great thing about pictures are that no matter whether they are of lost ones, they still make me very happy and also thankful for the times I got to share with them while they were still here. And very grateful that they were captured on camera so that whenever I feel like it I can look back to remembering those times that I can no longer have.

The second thing I would want to save that is hard, is people. I would love to be able to go save lives over in different countries because they do not have as much chance as we do. It is sad to see them struggle but yet I can not do anything about it. I am only seventeen so therefore I can not yet travel the world to do something about it. But since I can not do that and it is more of a hard thing to do, saving people here is definitely an option. That is why I have chosen to go into the medical field so that I can try to make a difference in as many lives as I can. That is something that I strive for in my life is others before me, I just need to get to that point in my life to where I can show that significantly.

My Fears

Well lets see I probably do not have thirty fears like the prompt told me to write but I can give it a try.
  1. I have a horrible fear of snakes. 
  2. I have a fear of heights
  3. I have a fear of being a loner because no one wants that.
  4. I have a fear of sharks.
  5. I have a fear one day the world will end.
  6. I have a horrible fear that we will be at war again here in the U.S.
  7. I have a fear of clean cut grass because then my allergies will go crazy.
  8. I have a fear of hurting someone without meaning to.
  9. I have a fear of losing people.
  10. I have a fear of losing my dogs.
  11. I have a fear of whats all in the ocean.
  12. I have a fear of what is in the dark. 
That about it, I can not really think of anymore fears. I am not really a fearful person I do not get scared that easily. But I can tell you one thing that scares me beyond anything in the whole world. I am terrified of snakes. It does not matter what type of snake it is if the name is a snake then I will be no where to be found. When I was a little kid I used to think that whenever I would see a snake that I would pass out and then it would eat me. I know I am crazy, I know they are not gonna eat me but I have fainted before. I do not know why they scare me so much but even like a picture, a book, or anything I just can not handle it. But snakes and sharks would have to be my two biggest fears. Snakes they are just nasty and sneaky. But sharks there is no help there if they wanna eat they are gonna eat and there is no stopping them that why I say within the two feet of water range when I go to the ocean.
