Rumors
Jessica, What an odd person. We never used to be able to have a civil conversation with each other. Now we can actually talk and not hate each other. See some people let all the rumors and drama get to them and ruin their chance to ever have a friendship together. Do you let drama get to you? Do you listen to all the rumors? Do you spread the rumors? If you didn’t know most drama really affects a person’s life. It can hurt someone really bad and make them feel very bad about themselves. It can really get to someone’s head and not let them be happy about they’re life.
In my opinion I think everyone should be civil. I believe if you’re nice to a person they will be nice back. If you don’t start or sped rumors you can have a lot of friends. Being a good person can make you a higher know person also. See if and Jessica and I didn’t listen to all the rumors that people were saying that we were saying, we would have most likely have been friends.

Visual Representation of Me
Hi! I’m Abbey. This year I had to decorate my English binder and present it to the class. On my binder I have four pictures. The first picture I have is a picture of my friend Sommar and me on a teeter-totter. I chose that picture for my random one, I like it because it was one of the best memories me and her had. It also reminds me of how much fun we use to have. The second picture I chose a picture of my swinging on a rope jumping into water, it represents me as being crazy and daring. The other two pictures are of me one is my cheerleading picture and the other one is my tap picture. I chose these pictures to show that I like to dance and cheer. On the back of my binder there is a book that my aunt wrote, I chose that because my aunt wrote it and it is special to me. Thank you for reading about my binder!

Have you ever liked a rainy day? Or do you just normally like them? I like rainy days because they’re boring and it's wet outside. They give me a reason for being inside. Then I can text all I want. Also be even more bored. WOOH!
Rainy days are just a blast aren’t they? I actually enjoy the way the world looks when it rains it gets foggy, just plain pretty. Truly the real fun thing about rainy days are when I get to bug my mom. Then we just argue.(:
They are really calm also and relaxing, as if there’s nothing else making noise in the world. Just the rain drops on the pavement, roof or even your window. Or the bangs and booms from the thunder.
Have you ever sat there and thought about what is going on in the sky? I know I have. Like if angels are having a water balloon fight? Or if the clouds are sad and are crying? Or do you wonder if the thunder and lighting is just a simple bowling match between the angels in heaven? Or is the Devil and God fighting back and forth?
Do you like rainy days? Do you ever think about whats going on up in the sky? Maybe next time when it rains you will.

Cheerleading.
Cheerleading is my sport. It’s the sport for me it takes strength and power. It involves spirit physical strength and a loud voice. In cheerleading we have to have strength for flying basing and backing we need strength for tumbling and building our bodies.
Some people may say cheerleaders are snotty, dumb, and self centered but we really aren’t we are actually very nice and smart. Some people may also think cheerleading is not a sport but it most defiantly is. We have to use every muscle.
Flyers use upper body strength and they pull up themselves using their arms. They hollow out their stomachs and stiffen their bodies. Bases hold the flyers up by using all of there arm strength. Bases they make sure the flyer does not fall. Backers support the whole stunt. They catch the flyers if they fall and they also pull up on the flyers akles so the bases don't have all the weight.
I am a flyer, a base, and sometimes a back. My favorite position would be flying. When I fly I feel strong and very important to the stunt. (:
Cheerleading is deffently a sport for me. I love it and I enjoy every little part of it.

Are you ever angry? Are you ever sad? Are you ever happy? Are you ever in love? Do you know that moods can be more than your feelings? They could be represented as colors. This blog will demonstrate how some colors represent people's certain moods.
Therefore, colors can be more than just colors, they can be how you feel. Like red, blue, black, and white can represent anger, sad, depression, and peaceful. The next time you see a color, think of all the moods it could represent. Also, all the symbols of a certain color!

If I didn’t have my phone I don’t know what I would do. I live on my phone I never put it down. It’s the only thing I ever have to do. It is a very confusing little jigger mabob. Unfortunately I broke it!!!! One night I was at my friend Sommar’s house and we were playing guitar hero. We really get into that game. We throw, punch, kick, and scream at things when we can’t beat a song. :) Before we went to bed I plugged my phone in the charger and turned it off. Then I put it in a crack between Sommar’s bed and the wall where nothing could happen to it.
When I woke up in the morning I went to turn on my phone so I could check in with my parents. To find a cracked screen. My whole screen of my phone was cracked and I didn’t even do anything to it. It still works though. My phone is also a touch screen so when I saw it cracked I was afraid it wouldn’t work, but it did. That’s what happened to my phone.

The thing I love most is to listen to people. I like to hear people out; I like to be able to let someone have a listening ear. I know that in my own personal experience that having someone to talk to can make a person feel better about them self. I guess what I’m saying is that I like helping.
One time I listened to someone and I found out a lot about them in just a little conversation. With me being there to listen I know I have helped this person. I feel trusted. When I need to talk to someone my best friend is always there for me, she listens to whatever I say and tries to help out with the problem as I would for someone else. Listening makes me feel like a good nice person when I know someone is feeling better.also being a listen can change someones life, as if someone is thinking about suicide just having someone to talk to they can feel totally different.
