My favorite cartoon character is Sponge Bob. I like him because he is really funny and he is really energetic and always doing silly things. I have always watched his shows since I was a little girl, and every now and then I sit down and watch it on my own or with my boyfriend who loves cartoons too. I love the cartoon Sponge Bob.

My Vacation/Awold

I know many people are confused on why I left SPA. There is a lot to it, but too long to write. I guess that one of the main reasons why I left was because I was tired of being ignored and treated like an animal. Not by everyone that’s for sure. Beth had allowed me go have little dates with Lebari, which made things fun. But, coming home was what I hated. Having to deal with the disrespect in the house towards staff and students only made me sick. During a week period, I had been treated like an animal by girls in my house. I felt like when I told someone, they just didn’t listen or didn’t care. I got stressed out, mad, anxious to hurt them, but I knew that wasn’t a good way to deal with things. After I got in a big argument, sort of a fight, I was being blamed for everything that happened. When I was only defending myself after being pushed, the staff chooses to say that I was instigating the whole fight. Supervisors didn’t let me say what had happen but when the manager came by I said everything and still made no change to me. I was crying and irritated, went back in and got sweaters and left. I walk for about an hour and a half and asked for help. I went all the way to Downtown and stayed in places for the night. During the day time, we walked and walked and then stopped to rest. The day we chose to come back, it was a hard decision for me. I knew that coming back was just going to heat things up for me a little more. But I realized that Lebari wanted me to be safe and in a little better condition than I was out there. He called and asked for us to get picked up and so we did. It wasn’t too bad being back home, the consequences were fair and having a house change for e really made a difference. Now I’m back, we are back, and I am happy to be back with people that care for me. Being back in school, ha-ha, it really makes me happy. Now getting caught up in my work is another story. I am a little disappointed because of things staff had said about me and the way I been treated by the staff, but I am trying to ignore it and not let it affect me. I know that even when I get older I will find myself in similar situations. Overall I am glad to be back home.

If my friend told me she was in an abusive relationship, I would tell her to tell an adult. If she decided not to tell anyone because she is scared I would tell an adult for her to make sure she is safe.

This weekend has been really hard for me. There is so much drama in my house that I just hate it now. I don't know really why but I don't feel like I am part of the house anymore. My house parent left about 2 month's ago and everyone has changed. Most of the girl's are disrespecful towards everyone. I don't understand what's trully going on but i don't se the point in talking behind peoples backs and then when the person is there they act like nothing happen. It hurts me to see girls in the house...my house acting like 3 year olds. They are all older 16, 17, only 1 freshman. I do my work and i try to be good and stay out of trouble and I feel like no one cares.

When I was a child my favorite song was “Rebelde.” The artist of this song was a pop Mexican group called RBD. They were 6 of them, 3 boys and 3 girls. They group started out in a college in Mexico. They were just like foster kids but they were in a college and they lived there. Some were rich and some were lower class. Two of the girls hated each other, one was rich and girly and the other one was more like whatever or a little gangster. After a while they started a group all together and became really popular in all around the world. They also eventually made an English CD. I always been in love with this group but not they have separated and now they are on T.V acting.

Rhyme Zone

I never knew that I could ever love you. You were my best friend and nothing else. Now, looking back I remember feeling lust for us. Sometimes I felt like I had something more than just lust in my heart. I really didn’t plan for you and me to ever start to date. But things did what they were meant. Every day I get to know, something more about you. Now things seem to be better than before and every day things seem to get even better. Now that I have you I don’t plan to loose you. You became more than my best friend, now you are also my love one and my soul.

The rhyme scheme of this poem is AABBCC

My Love For You
© Matthew Dusfim


The Bit by bit and day by day
In such a special lovely way
Do not know why or how to say
But I shall try to... If I may

And thus I shall try to explain
That despite heavy pouring rain
In times of sorrow and of pain
My love for you was not in vain

When I was down and even sad
If I felt angry rather mad
If I was in tears feeling bad
My love for you I did not dread

I was insulted even mocked
My same own life I feel was blocked
The doubts that came and often knocked
My love for you was safely locked

Until the day you came to me
The love in me you did not see
Without you dear how could I be?
My love for you I could not free

And yet you know I still love you
A love that’s strong and oh so true
Wher’ver you go wher’ver to
My love for you will follow too

Today I am not feeling good. Last night I was running a fever and I was really sick. After we went home we didn’t get to go out until 7:30pm. I was sleeping all day and I didn’t even eat dinner. Finally, at 7:30pm Lebari called me to let me know we were going to be able to see each other. Later, we saw each other for a little because I was thundering and lightning so we had to go home. I was really sad and then I went to my room and he called me and we talked all night. We went to sleep at 10pm because I was still not feeling to good. Finally, this morning I was better and running a low fever but I was able to come to school. I am a little irritated with my house and with a person in my group too. I just think that she has decided to not care about school just because of her new boyfriend. I think it’s ridiculous!

“Figurative Language Games.”

The best figurative language game I played tonight is "Fling the Teacher", because it shows good examples of words and phrases to do with what we are learning. In order to play this game, I had to try to answer 15 questions correctly and if i fail to answer one i started all over. My final score on this game was 15/15 correctly. If you want to play this game, go to this link http://www.newton.k12.ks.us/tech/fling3.html

Another enjoyable figurative language game is "Drag and Drop Metaphors", because i had to put sentences together for it to be a metaphor. In order to play this game, I had to put sentences together in like 60 seconds. My final score on this game was 100%. If you want to play this game, go to this link http://www.kidsonthenet.org.uk/dragonsville/metaphor1.htm

My least favorite figurative language game is "Paint by Idiom", because it was more for little kids and it takes too long. In order to play this game, I had to identify the idiom by its literal meaning. My final score on this game was 8 correct and 3 wrong.

My Winter Vacation

My winter vacation was mainly spending time with my boyfriend. During the first week of vacation my boyfriend and I went to the movies together and we also went out to eat to panda express. We got a chance to get off campus and do some fun things together. During the 2cd half of my vacation, my boyfriend and I hung out on campus and watched lots of movies over at my house. Things went really good, we got a chance t speak about our thoughts and feelings to be able to understand each other better. Overall, my vacation was mostly about hanging out with my boyfriend and learning a little more about each other.

Saturday, 12/26/09: Looking back at Christmas, is it better to give or receive? Explain

Looking back at christmas I think that giving is so much fun. Knowing that you are making people happy by the things you give is so cool. I also like to receive things because I get to ask for things that I want or wish to get. Either way I think there both fun.

Tuesday, 12/22/09: Write about your comfort foods.

One of my confort foods is pasta salads. I always loved all types of pasta as long as I thought they looked good. I love spaghetti, and like macoronni pastas.

Monday, 12/21/09: Write about a time when you and a friend or family member bonded.

The first time I bonded with a friend was when I was in 6th grade and I went to Montgomery Middle School. I was a new student and soon after me this girl named Vanessa Sanchez came into my class. We were both new and so we decided to hang out and spend time together. After a couple months we became the best of friends I new I could always count on her. She moved schools a little before the end of the year and we still always kept in contact. Up to this day we talk about everything and we try to visit each other, every now and then.
