FINAL EXAM REFLECTION ESSAY
Creative Writing has been one of my favorite classes I have learned so much about so many different things. I have also learned a lot about myself as a writer. This year in creative writing started out exciting and it was something new; it was a new style of writing that I was not used to writing in. I was used to writing in a type that was very informational and gave facts. So when I came into creative writing it was nothing that I had expected at all.
In creative writing I learned how to express myself in a different way. I learned to write what I wanted to write and not just what I had to write, I found out very quickly that writing did not have to be something that was awful, it could something that was very useful it is a way to express myself that was very different from the other types of writing that I am used to.
One thing that really helped me with my writing was writing in our blogs. Writing in the blogs really helped me because I was not given something to write I had to come up with my own ideas to write about, and after a while it came natural and I was able to write about what I was feeling. Whether I am sad, happy, excited, or mad I am able to express myself in a different way, rather than just keeping it all inside, I am able to write about it and express it in a different kind of way.
One writing assignment that I really liked was writing the memoir. I liked writing this because it was something different, and I had to write about myself and one of my own memories of the past, this really helped me because I was writing about myself and the more that I wrote about that single memory the more I was able to recall about what had happened.
I also really liked writing the poems. I thought that the poems were really fun to write and it was something different and new and something that I have never done in an English class before. Writing the poems really helped me use my own ideas, and come up with words and different sayings to put into the poems that I wrote. I think that writing the poems was one of my favorite things that we did this year, just because it is a different style of writing and not something that you would do every day.
Our very last project was the video project which was a really fun project to do because no only did we get to write our own scripts, but we got to film what we wrote after we finished writing our scripts. I thought that this was really cool because it was a new way to be creative and it another thing that we would not have done in a regular English class. I think that the video project was also one of my favorite projects that we did this year in Creative Writing class.
I think that overall Creative Writing class was an excellent class to take. It really helped me with my writing because it was a style of writing that I was not used to writing. I really think that creative Writing should be a class that everyone should consider taking, and I think that by taking this class it is going to help me a lot next year in college and in the future.

Summer
I'm so excited for summer vacation. This will be the first summer since I was four that I won't be at the gym practicing new skills. It's kind of sad, but yet exciting. I will still be at the gym, but not as a gymnast but as a pre-school coach. I'm very excited to give the love of the sport back to the little girls just beginning. This is a whole new beginning, and one I'm looking forward to.
Memorial Day
Every Memorial Day weekend we go to my grandpa's house. This is the time of year we decorate my grandmothers grave. The first couple of years after she died were very hard, but as the years have passed it has gotten easier. My grandpa gets lots of pretty flowers and we take them out to the cemetery. I wish she was still here to see me graduate, but I know she is watching me from heaven.
Fishing
I have a new hobby, it's fishing. I have learned how to cast and reel it back in. I haven't caught anything big, but I have caught a small sun fish. It was so exciting, it made me want to fish again. Over the weekend I went up north and went fishing, there were some big fish on the lake, I didn't catch anything, but I think it was because it was so cold and I was shivering so hard. The next time it's warm I'm going to try again.
American Idol
The end is near and the final two are Blake (my favorite) and Jordan. This was the final I was hoping for. Blake brings something entirely different to the final and Jordan is young and definitely the American Idol type. I think that whoever wins will be successful, although I really hope that Blake wins. Last week when Melinda got sent home wasn't all that surprising. She is a good singer, but we have had no big shockers this season so I was kind of suspecting that she would go. I'm so excited for Tuesday and Wednesday night!!!!
Senior Skip Day!
On Senior skip day me and Kara went to see Shrek the third, it was pretty good but I think I still like the first one the best. I thought the movie was really cute, and at the end of the movie Shrek had babies and they were so cute, I also like the flying donkey babies, they were cute also. after the movie me and Kara went to applebees for lunch which was nice because I love applebees in the end I had a really good Senior Skip Day!
I Can't Wait
It is almost the end of the year and I can not wait till it is done there is so much to do and so little time to do everything that needs to be done. With finals coming up and all of the end of the year activities I am really starting to feel stressed out. I have also missed so much school because my aunt was in the hospitla and it is just really hard to stay in school right now, I just can't wait to be done it is so close and I can taste it yet, it still feels so far away.

It is almost time!
It is almost time for american idol results show, i can not wait. I hope that phil and blake stay on the show becasue they are my favorites, other than that i really don't care who gets voted off of the show today.
Prom fashion show
Me and Kara went to the prom fashion show today and it was okay. It gave me something to do since I don't do gymnastics anymore. I think that all of the dresses that they had in the show were really pretty. I really liked this one dress that was pink with these straps that crossed in the back. I actually got my prom dress from the place where all of those dresses were from, and I tried on the pink prom dress that was in the show, but it really did not fit me to well. But I like my dress it is yellow and low cut in the back, it is really pretty.
School is almost done!
I am so happy that school is almost over i can't wait to graduate from high school. I am going to CMU next year and can't wait to go. it is going to be so much fun up their, and I am going to meet so many new people and can't wait. I almost wish I could go right now. But what makes it even more exciting is that I get to go with Kara, we will have alot of fun up there next year I really can't wait.
AMERICAN IDOL
American idol was so good last night, I hope that Blake wins the whole thing. He was amazing, I voted for him at least 20 time, he is my favorite out of all the top ten contestants. But I also like phil, I think that he is really good also, but I really think that Blake is better than phil.

*Regional Weekend*
Over the weekend I had my regional competition in midland. I did ok it was not one of my bests meets. I did not make nationals which is kind of upsetting, but in a way it is good also becasue I have so much to do in the next few weeks like finals and so much other stuff. So now I am done with gymnastics, which is kind of wierd and different becasue I have never had so much free time before. Well anyway at regionals I did ok, but I did not make nationals and that is ok.

Board Prompt
"if you had a microphone and could make the whole world listem to you, what would you say? Why?"
If I had a microphone and could make the whole world listen to me I would tell people that They need to stay out of other peoples business, because really it is none of ther concern. If everyone was to mind their own business I think that there would be so much more peace on the world. There would be less peopel getting shot and killed erery day.
I would also tell peopel to be nice and not mean and crule to others and think that is very important to be nice to others becasue there is a thing called karma, and what goes around comes around.

~GOAL~
My goal for the next few weeks of school in creative writing class is to get my video project completed. I would like to keep my "A" in this class, and not to slack off to much before the end of the year. You could help me by keeping me motivated and not let me talk to much. You can tell me to "Shut Up" if I talk to much because that is what my mom tells me when I start to talk to fast and she can't keep up with what I am saying. You could also help me keep a good grade in this class by not giving any homework, because at this point in time i am having a hard time staying focused and I seem to be forgetting to do my homework, and i don't know why. I think that I will accomplish my goal as long as I do good on my video project.

Last Weekend
last weekend was statemeet, and if you don't know it is one of the biggest meets of the year, because it is against all of the teams in michingn and everyone wants to win. By winning state meet you get alot of recconition from the whole michigan gymnastics community. At state meet you have to have a least a team of 3 girls in order to be considered for team awards.
Well on saturday our level 8s competed and that is what my sister is, so I did not have a choice I had to go and watch, but it was fun i enjoyed watching, but I made the mistake of bringing my boyfriend along, becase he was board out of his mind and we had to sit in bleechers and my back started to hurt really bad. So being the good guy that he is he said why don't you sit in front of me and I was not going to say no so I did, and my back started to feel better, but he had his hands on my shoulders and I did not thinking anything of it, there is nothing wrong with someone touching my shoulders, well i guess there is this one mohter that thought Jake was touching me in a innappropite way, well Jake got mad and told the lady to F*** off, really loud and then alot of peopel just looked at us which was actually sort of funny. I just think that people need to mind there own business and be more concerned with their own lives rather that what I am doing in my life, peopel like that just really make me mad.
Well now that I have that out lets go back to state meet. Krista did really well she ending up taking 3 in the state all-around, and ended up taking 2nd on vault. She was really happy with how she did, but she was still mad because she really wanted to win an event, because our coach told us that if anybody won anything at States, Regionals or nationals, that you will get something special at the end of the season. But I thought that Krista did really well She ended up qualifying for regionals, and if you don't know, which you probably don't, as a level 8 in order to qualify for Regionals you need an all-around of a 34.5, and krista had a 37.625 all around. Krista team ended up taking 8 place overall with a team score of 111.325, which you are probably thinking that is really high, its not made and that score might win very small local meets but in order to win a state meet you need about a high 113 in order to win, but that was good for their team because it was their high score of the year and they really wanted to win.

Harry Potter
Yesterday me and Kara watched Harry Potter in creative writing class because we are doing our project on J.K Rowling, she is the lady that wrote Harry Potter. it was really cool because we got to go into the hall and watch a movie while everyone else had to sit in the class. I wish I could sit in the hall and watch movies in every class, or I would just rather stay home and watch movies all day, either one would be good, but I am excited for tomorrow because we get to finish watching Harry Potter, that means we get to sit out in hall again and do nothing while everyone stays in the class room, this is the reason that creative writing is my favorite class.

If I could take it back I would
Have you ever done something that you really wish you could take back, if you could go back and do it all over again would you? I would, I would take back something of mine that I gave to someone else, what it is does not really matter, what matter is that I gave something of mine away that I should not have given away and I would really love to have it back, but I can't, I just can't. I keep replaying the same thing over and over again in my head, and I think to myself why would I do that, it is so unlike me to do something like that, I guess that is why they call it a regret because it is something you know you have done wrong, but you can't have a redo, you can only learn from your mistakes that you make, and that is what I am going to do. I am going to take this mistake that I have made made and turn it around, and next time when this same situtation comes up, I know there will be a different outcome, and hopefully won't happen again for a long while.
GRANDMA
When I was nine my grandma died of cancer, it was a type of rare cancer that affects your blood. I remember when it happened. We were down in mexico and we had only been there for one day, the phone rang at 1:00 in the morning and it was my grandpa saying that my grandma had just died. even though I was still young when it happened I remember so much about her, and how she would do anything for me, Rob, and Krista, considering that we were her only grandkids. We all adored her and I remember sobing, and throwing my body down and crying on the floor at her funeral.
Now almost eight years later I find myself going through the same thing, my other grandma is not doing to well, she has lung cancer, and only has 5 months to live, put this time when I loose a grandparent I am not going to feel so bad, I know that sounds mean, but you would have to know my grandma to understand. I have only met the lady 4 times in my life and it happend all when I was little, so I have grown up knowing that I have a grandma that lives in Florida, and wnats nothing to do with her only grandkids, how can I feel sorry for someone like that, I guess I really can't. When the day comes that she is gone and my mom tells me, I will feel bad for my dad becase yes he has lost is mother, but other than that their was no emotional loss for me, and their will be no morning becasue I have lost something that I never really knew I had, Something that means nothing to me, and has no emotional impact on me.

Math Class
I am not doing to well in math class right now, I am having a lot of trouble and I am almost failing the class, my dad is usually here to help me with my math, but he has been down in Florida visting my sick gramdmother. I really wish he would come back so he once again could help me with my math. I think that if I was to work really hard during the next marking period and study a lot before my tests, I just might be able to pass my math class, I just hope everthing works out okay and I don't end up failing math like I did my freshman year, that would not be to good. I think that if I did that I would be in some trouble
The Time of Year
I really hate this time of year, but I also love it. I hate it because it is moving to slow, and this is the time of year that my life starts to spin out of control and I feel I am going to have a mental breakdown, with everything that is going on, like school, final gymnastics competitions, and my grandmother is not doing to well, everything in my life is just so stressful. But on the other hand I also love this time of year because the school year is finally coming to an end and things are starting to pick up pace a little, and move a little faster, which is good. I really can't wait for the end of the school year, I am finally a senior and I can't wait to be done with school.
Psychology
I really dislike psychology class, I am not going to say hate because I hate math class and I would take psychology over math any day. I just don't really understand what is going on in that class it is all so very confusing to me, and I don't know why. It is not like it is a boring class, I am not just doing to well in the class. I just don't do to well on the tests, its not like I don't study for the tests, because I do, but when I go to take the test I just sort of blank out, and then I forget answers to the test I should know, this is why I almost have a C in the class

Running out of ideas
I know i should have done all of my blogging earlier when i was supposed to, but i was just so busy with gymnastics and school that i had no time to write on my blog i know that is a lame excuse but i am telling the truth, that all i really wanted to say, and i just wanted someone to complain to, and since you can't respond what anything I am just going to keep complining
My B-day
My Birthday is coming up in three weeks and I can not wait to turn 18. Right now my life is finally going good and I hope that my birthday will just make it better. My mom says that she is getting me a really cool present for my 18th birthday, but she won't tell me what it is so I have been trying to figure it out but I really can not guess what it is which is becoming really annoying, but it is also a lot of fun trying to figure out what my mom has planed for my birthday, and if you already knew what you were getting for you birthday then it would not really be a present.
Level 7 State Meet
This weekend coming up is level 7 state meet, and is a pretty big deal for the level 7s because it is their last meet of the season, because they no don't have regional or nationals like the 8s, 9s, and 10s. But you want to know what makes me mad is that those little level 7 brats think that they are the best and that they can't be beat, they have sticks shoved so far up their butts that their is no possible way that they could ever pull them out, and you want to know what puts the icing on the cake is that my coach, the owner of Oakland Gymnastics, is making us go to one of the level 7 session and watch them compete which is going to annoy me so much, I really can't stand watching them, and their competition is somewhere past Lansing and that is a really far drive, and my mom can't drive me because she has to work, that means I have to drive me and my sister to the meet and we are probably going to get lost along the way, but that is okay, because we just have to go watch the level sevens compete, nobody really cares if I am not good with directions and don't feel comfortable driving that far away, I am just expected to be there, and if i am not I will end up getting in trouble, and that is the last thing that I need right now in my life.
Boyfriend Stealer
There is a girl who I do gymnastics with, her name is Nicole. Nicole is a freshman in H.S. and thinks she can steal my boyfriend. Everytime my guy is visiting me at the gym, she is staring at him with these big puppy dog eyes, it's so obvious she wants my boyfriend. I'm surprised she dosn't have drool running down the side of her mouth. I feel like smashing her face in, but of course I would never do something like that. The girl needs to get a life and quit checking my cute boyfriend out.
My Sister
As I am sitting here trying to catch up on some of my blogs before tomorrow my wonderful little sister said i should write something about her in fact she wrote herself an interview and then answered the questions and gave the paper to me and said "here please put this in your blog so everyone knows who i am". So here is Krista's interview.
1. What is your name: Krista Renee Niess
2. What is your favorite color(s): Pink, Green, and Orange
3. What is your favorite Movie: How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
4. What is you favorite food: I like a lot of different foods, but i hate pop
5. What is your favorite TV Show: The Hills
6. What is your favorite animal: I like baby tigers that you can hold, I like all animals when they are babies, but i don't like them when they get older.
7. Do you have any pets: Yes I have a dog, her name is Elsa and she is so cute
This is the end of the interview I hoped you like my little sister Krista.

1/2 Day of School
Well I planned on coming to school today, but some things happened and i was not able to come, I really can't say what happened because i am pretty sure that it would be inappropriate (Kara I am really sorry, I know I told you I was coming to school, but I could not come, please forgive me, I will tell you more tomorrow at school).
On to other stuff now. I was really happy because I did not have to work at all. I got a call saying that they did not need me to come in after all. So I picked my boyfriend up from school then went and got my sister from school. The three of us went out to lunch at Applebees. I had chicken, and Krista had the cowboy burger, which i do not like because they put to much stuff on it. Then I had to go to practice, which is not really fun for me anymore because everyone is so much younger than me, but that is okay because i will be done with gymnastics in a matter of a few weeks, which could be a good thing, but could also be bad because a lot of people think that i am going to get out of control and start doing things that i am not supposed to be doing. I just wish that other people would worrying about my life and what i am doing because really it is none of their business, and start focusing their attention on their own lives and start worrying about what their children are doing and stop focusing on MY LIFE so much.

MONDAY
Today is Monday and I am very excited for tommorrow becasue it is a half a day of school. You have no idea how excited i am because i only have to go for half of the day, that means half of the class time, half of the work, no dressing for gym class, and less homework. The worst part is that i have to get up early for school, it would be alot better if i could not go to school at all, which is not going to happen becasue my mom will make me go to school, but after school i have to go to work, but if i am lucky i will not have to work, which will probably not happen.

JOSEPH
On Saturday I had to work and that was just a joy like it always is, it is just so much fun and I just love what I do, not really, it is OK for a little bit but then it starts to get a little boring. Well after work Jake came over and we watched the movie Bewitched, well only some of it, off and on. and then all of a sudden it was 5:30 and i had to meet Kara for dinner, and Jake decided that he wanted to com to dinner as well so me, Kara, Jake, and Kara's cousin went to Leos for dinner. and then me and Kara went to see Joseph at Northern, and it was really good, i liked it a lot.
FRIDAY
Me and my Boyfriend, Jake, went to see Ghost Rider on friday night after i finshed gymnastics practice. I end practice at 8:45 so he came over to my hour at about 10:00. Then we left to go to the movies, but we forgot to look online while we were at my house so when we got there is was about 10:25 and all of the movies had already started at 10:20 or 10:15 and the last show playing was Ghost Rider at 10:30 which I really did not want to see, but the movie turned out to be ok its not a movie that i would choose to see again just becasue the ending of the movies was so stupid becasue he has the choice to be normal again but instead he chooses to keep his power and leave the girl he loves.

What Dreams may come quotes
"Sometime when you win you lose"
When a person is so consumed with winning they no longer care about anything but winning. This is when winning has become an attiction that they can't get rid of. They have to win they really have no other choice. Becomming go attached to winning is when your body takes over and you are no longer thinking, you no longer care or necessarly like what you are doing, but you just have to win. you really don't care who you step on or over in order to win, even if it is your best friend of even one of your family members.

My Wonderful Weekend
Over the weekend I had a gymnastics competition on Saturday. This was my best meet of the season so far, which made me really happy. I ended up taking second place overall, and i won beam with a 9.175, which is really good. Our team also took second place overall, but we really wanted to get first. I also got my highest bar score of the year with a 8.775. Then on Sunday my sister had her gymnastics competition, she did really well, she ended up winning the whole gymnastics competition, she took first on Vault with a 9.5, first on Bars with a 9.35, first on Beam with a 9.225, and fourth on Floor with a 8.85, she also took first on all-around with a 36.825. Then after the competition we went to Mongolian barbecue which was really good because you can get as much food as you want and it still costs the same amount of money. Then when we got home Krista wanted to go out on the lake before all of the ice melts off it, so my mom made me go out there with her, while we were out there i ended up slipping and falling, and then Krista put her leg through a fishing whole that she did not see when we were walking along, then she started to cry because we could not get her leg out of the hole, so I had to run across the lake and get one of the ice fisherman to come over so we could cut her leg out of the hole, so the ice fisherman cut a circle around Krista's leg, and it popped out, but there was still a chunk of ice stuck around her leg so we went home and my dad spent two hours carefully scraping away 9 inches of ice away from her leg, after he got it off her leg looked like a red cherry. That was my exciting weekend.

There is Nothing to Write About
I always thought that i had an exciting life until we starting doing blogs, but i guess I don't have a very exciting life at all. I never realized how boring my life was until I had to write about it. Now don't get me wrong I love my life and the stuff i do but lately it just seems very routine. I get up in the morning go to school, come home, pick up my sister from school, come home again, go to gymnastics practice, come home once again, eat dinner, do my homework, take a shower, and then go to bed, then i will wake up the next morning and do the same thing the next day, and after a while this routine starts to get old. but i guess it is what i have chosen for my life, but i can't really complain because i love doing gymnastics and i would not give it up for anything in the world, but as my mom has told me time and time again and i am finally starting to understand gymnastics is what I do and not who i am. I have finally realized my senior year in high school that there is more to life than just gymnastics and my whole world does not have to revolve around gymnastics. I only wish i would have known this sooner, because in the long run it would have made my life a lot easier.

Elsa My Dog
You are so cuddly and warm
You get so happy when I come home
When I call you to the kitchen you happily swarm
You love to chew on you bone
You get so happy when I come home
Your little ears perk up when you hear the door
You love to chew on you bone
And when you sleep I can hear you snore
Your little ears perk up when you hear the door
You are so very small how cute you are
And when you sleep I can hear you snore
You are the best dog by far
You are so very small how cute you are
You don’t like other dogs
You are the best dog by far
You are so small you could fit in my clogs
You don’t like other dogs
You are so pretty
You are so small you could fit in my clogs
I know you would like to go on big adventures in the city
You get so happy when I come home
When I call you to the kitchen you happily swarm
You love to chew on you bone
You get so happy when I come home
Your little ears perk up when you hear the door
You love to chew on you bone
And when you sleep I can hear you snore
Your little ears perk up when you hear the door
You are so very small how cute you are
And when you sleep I can hear you snore
You are the best dog by far
You are so very small how cute you are
You don’t like other dogs
You are the best dog by far
You are so small you could fit in my clogs
You don’t like other dogs
You are so pretty
You are so small you could fit in my clogs
I know you would like to go on big adventures in the city

Shopping Mall (Villanelle Poem)
The mall is so very fun
There is so much to do there
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won
Everywhere I look people are having a blast
Families and children all shopping together
The mall is so very fun
There is shoppers here and their I can see them everywhere
My hands are full of bags and stuff I have bought
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won
Going from store to store takes a toll on my feet
It makes me feel as if I need to sit down and eat
The mall is so very fun
I use my brain power and shopping skill
Trying to find that perfect pair of shoes
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won
It seems if I will never go home
The mall is so very stressful at the end of the day
The mall is so very fun
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won
There is so much to do there
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won
Everywhere I look people are having a blast
Families and children all shopping together
The mall is so very fun
There is shoppers here and their I can see them everywhere
My hands are full of bags and stuff I have bought
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won
Going from store to store takes a toll on my feet
It makes me feel as if I need to sit down and eat
The mall is so very fun
I use my brain power and shopping skill
Trying to find that perfect pair of shoes
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won
It seems if I will never go home
The mall is so very stressful at the end of the day
The mall is so very fun
Especially when I find a great deal, it means I have won

OPEN LETTER TO: CHOCOLATE
January 29, 2007
Dear chocolate
Oh how I do love you so, even though I know we should break up I find myself coming back for more. I really think that it would be best if we went our separate ways, but every time I try to leave you sweet talk me into coming back just for a little more, and the longer I stay, the harder I find it to walk away.
I remember the first time we met when I was a little girl, my mom handed you to me, and I saw your shinny wrapper, oh how you could be so intriguing. I remember unwrapping you and shoving you into my mouth. The taste was wonderful, it was filled with sugar and sweetness of all different kinds, and from that moment on I have been hooked, I guess you could call me your biggest fan.
As the years went on we stayed pretty close. You were always there for me when I had a fight with my best friend, always knowing how to make me feel better, and the best part was, you were always on my side. You always knew how to bring a smile to my face, all that I would have to do was pop you into my mouth and I would feel better in seconds.
As the years passed you started to gain some aggression towards me. When I was having a bad day you only made me feel worse about myself and not better at all. When I would try and be nice to you, you would make me feel bad and leave me with a stomach ache that would hurt so bad. I would not talk to you for long periods of time, but when I did our reunion was joyful. After a week or so we would slip back into the same old pattern we were in before.
This is why I am saying goodbye. We have started to take two different paths in life and have grown apart. I feel it is time for me to let go. So this is my final farewell to you, I hope you will be able to live without me, because I certainly will have a hard time living without you.

Texas Day 1
I got back from Texas on Monday and I had a lot of fun. We flew in on Friday and got there at about 12:30 in the afternoon. We got to our hotel, and when I looked out the window I saw a very large shopping mall, so of course I had to go. So me and my sister Krista found a cab and headed over to the mall. While we were at the mall I went to Abercrombie and Fitch and bought a new sweater and a new pair of jeans and then we went to Hollister and Krista bought a skirt. As we were walking around the mall we found a lot of different stores that i have never seen before, they were really cool with a lot of different interesting stuff in the stores. Then my mom called us and we had to leave the mall. I could have stayed there for another five hours.

I AM POEM
I am like an onion that has many layers
I am an elephant smart and powerful
I am like the color Green
Loving the Earth
I am like the wonderful smell of a daisy
I am like my birthday one of a kind and wonderful
I am like 7:45 loving to relax and be home
I am like the mall
Always buying new clothes
I am like Apple Pie sweet and tasteful
I am Tiffany

TEXAS
I am really excited because I am leaving for Texas tomorrow morning. The only bad part about leaving tomorrow is that we have to fly out of the Flint airport to the Detroit airport where we have to wait for two hours before we get on our next flight that will take us to Texas. This means that we will have to leave my house at about 3:30 in the morning which will not be so fun or exciting. So I will not be in school on Friday January 19Th or Monday January 22Nd. I am going to Texas, with my gymnastics team, because we are going to compete in a big competition that we are going to take part in. I am going to compete on Saturday and I am hoping that my team and does really well this weekend. I am also hoping that I am going to do well as an individual. This will be my last trip that I take with my gymnastics team because I am now a senior in high school, and I could do gymnastics in college if I wanted to, but I have made the choice not to continue to do gymnastics when I get into college. I think that I have the chance to do really well this weekend, all I have to do is concentrate and focus on what I am doing and I think that I have the potential to do very well this weekend.
Bye
Tiffany *I will let you now how I did when I get back from Texas*

TRUE COLORS
When we did true colors in class I was a ORANGE. People that are orange are active, opportunistic, and spontaneous. I can see myself as being a very active person because of gymnastics (I don't really know what the other words mean). I am also a very competitive person when it come to winning. I always wnat to to my best no matter what. I also see myself as a very fun person. I am also very courageous when it comes to doing new skills in gymnastics, I will try anything if it means i can be a better gymnast. My nxt two closest colors were GOLD and BLUE. I can also see myslef as a gold and a blue because I am more on the shy side and not one to talk alot (Unless I am talking to Kara). I am also very organized sensible and dependable.
Bye,
Tiffany
