Amber Meade # 1 Bad Girl

I love Amber Meade aka Cookie who was on the Bad Girls Club Season 3! And I am so happy that I am not the only one who does. She is a super sweet girl who always stands up for herself.  Now others may think that she is a dumb blonde who says offensive things and pokes at people. But that is why she was in the Bad Girls Club in the first place. 

Anyway, watching the reunion is the best part of any reality TV show. All of the people on the show take out their claws and are ready to fight. Although on this season of the Bad Girls Club was a bit too crazy on the KC and Ashley end. They don't know each other at all and yet they find ways to bring out the body guards. But I think it was Ashley who really wanted to get into it with KC. Making comments that weren't true. At least what KC said was true!  But you know what! I really don't care because Ashley had to do something. So that she wasn't on the back seat of the whole reunion. 

To those who hate reality TV shows and think they are fake. I for one do not care what is real and what is not. When it comes to entertainment! All television shows is the same for me and I love drama and the Bad Girls Club did it for me. So you could say what you want to say. 

Humane Society Volunteer

I signed up for the Kennel Program, Small Animal Assistant, and DBS.

I just got back from the Humane Society after being there for about an hour and a half. The orientation was scheduled for 2 hours but I am guessing that was supposed to be an estimate. Anyway before got started on the presentation and tour of the Humane Society... My mother and I saw a sparrow flying in and checking the place out. This is a rare deal for us to see indoors and I wish I had my camera but I didn't. Anyway here are a few things that I have learned. 

• The Humane Society that I went to began, September 14, 1897.
• 6,500 to 7,000 animals come in. 
• Over 90% Get a home! Why? Because of Foster Parents! Take a pet home with you for 2 weeks, one month or two months. 
• The Humane Society stands alone! And is not a chapter of HSUS, AHA or ASPCA!
• They take pets from other places that are out of time!
• In this Humane Society there is no such thing is out of time! 
• Spay/Neuters are at a low cost and encouraged. 
• There is a grooming spa for cats who are too stressed to groom themselves. 
• Microchip Identification 
• Vet
• Humane Teen Club
• Dog training-Kindergarten Class for puppies and for anything dogs need training for. 
• People and Pets workshops-Yoga with dogs! 
• Campus tours- Talk and show around. Girl Scouts come often. 
• School Program-Yellow Mobile with pets inside go to schools. Can adopt from the yellow mobile. 
• Pet Food Bank-Always needs food. There was a huge storage of food when I went to the shelter. But by the time June comes around. It needs to be restored. 
• Pet Project- For people who have aids. 
• Pets are good for senior citizens. 
• Visiting Pet Friends
• There is a limit to what kind of pets are allowed to stay. But they never turn a pet down. Once they held a pig for three weeks. Then had to send it on its way to a place that could provide help for the pig. 

PLEASE VOLUNTEER, APPLY FOR A JOB, ADOPT A PET, GIVE FOOD TO THE PET FOOD DRIVE OR PUT A BIN YOUR GROCERY STORE,  BE A FOSTER PARENT, AND TELL EVERYONE ABOUT THE HUMANE SOCIETY. DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO HELP! 

The Whole Swan Statue

Battery was fully charged this morning! So for those who wanted to see the whole statue. Here it is! 

Home is where my heart is

[Model Poem]

I belong here. I belong in this big house filled with memories. I have lived here all of my life and now I don't want to leave. I have grown attached to this home as much as a baby gets attached to the womb. I have everything I need right here. I have a mother who loves me, grandparents who care about me, and a father who misses me. I have the luxury and the loneliness of being a only child. I have a garden and a deck in my back yard, that no one else uses except for me. I have many dead gold fish and butterflies flushed down the toilet. I have thirteen year old throw up stains on almost every carpet down stairs. I have lived on this island for what it seems like a blink of an eye in time. I belong here. I have been reborn into an already Christian life. And I pray everyday so that other people's lives become better. To risk everything, I have learned to listen to old quotes, to find that home is truly where my heart is. 

This model poem was an assignment I had last semester in my Creative Writing class and I thought I would post it up.  So anyway, a model poem is a poem where you choose a poem that someone else has made and make it your own. I don't remember who I modeled this poem from or the poems title. But the subject and format is all the same. So anyway I hope you like it.  

Driving

I didn't really do much today except take a few photos while my mother was driving. I just like pictures that are blurred together. It brings something new to something that is usually plain. I hope to take more pictures and better ones of course. This was a short ride and so there wasn't much to picture. Anyway, the rest of the day was spent sleeping in, reading a few more chapters of Magical Thinking, eating, taking a walk, and  listening to music. I know that might seem boring but I had a good time just relaxing. Everyone needs those kinds of days.

But tomorrow will be different. I am going to go a two hour training at the Humane Society! I love animals and so I can't wait to learn how to take care of them. To manage them and help them out. I have no idea what I am going to learn but I will blog about it tomorrow. And hopefully someone out there who might come along and read my blog. Will get interested into helping out at the Humane Society. Cause it is always needed. Well, buh bye!

Swan Statue

This statue has been in my area for the longest time and I thought it would be perfect for this week's word "Bird" for Manic Monday. The whole statue has eggs and a green plant next to this swan. My battery in my camera was giving out on me. So I couldn't get the second picture of the whole swan. But I hope you guys like it.

Winter 2008

Snow is an unusual sight where I live and I am not sure if it will come again this year, 2009. So I thought that I would post up a few snowy pictures. And I hope that anyone who comes to this blog will like it. 

What can I do?

Sunday mornings! Are always good mornings especially when you get to go to church. Now others may be bored listening to sermons but not me. My pastor has a great way of making you laugh and getting you interested. He also explains every single sentence of the bible. He does not skip over the bad parts in the bible or put frosting over hell. He gives you what is written and doesn't care what you have to say. Because he knows what he says is the full truth. So that always makes me want to smile in the morning. And what else could I smile about is having a get together with my lovely grandmother and talk more about the Lord's word. I haven't had one of those moments for about two months. So you can see that I have much to look forward to. 

Anyway, the last thing that I will ever do today is read a few more chapters of Magical Thinking by Augusten Burroughs. The chapter that I read last night about the rat thing in Augusten's book was very surprising. I would have never thought that he would kill a rat in such a inhumane way. I just hope he thinks twice about doing something like that in the future. But this also makes me more intrigued with his life and his book and I want to read further. 

The Haunting in Connecticut

I just came home from watching this horror flick and I throughly enjoyed it. I was scared the whole time and I found myself praying to god as if my life was threatened. I knew that it was just a movie but when the movie begins with "based on a true story" it sends chills down my spine. I mean what if this really did happen? I know that most of it was fake or illusions that the boy made up. But some of it must be real. It just makes me want to research it and find out more about it. Don't you love films like that? Anyway I wouldn't mind watching this again and again if possible. Oh and the girl who played Windy! She sure does look like someone who could play Bella Swan in the fourth movie of the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyer. 

Wake Up

I woke up this morning wanting to stay in bed forever! My bed was so cozy, warm and comfortable. But it was time for me to greet the day so I forced myself up. Opened my bedroom window and smelled in that rainy air. I watched the light rain fall to the ground and listened to a lawn mower nearby cutting grass. This is my favorite time of the day. Simply because there is no one outside my window walking their dogs or driving their cars. 

So anyway after having my peaceful time I went downstairs to hang out with my mother. My mother and I have become really close friends over this last year. We got to know each other, fight, and talk. So do you want to know why our relationship blossomed? Well, it had to do with something really personal and it broke my mother's heart. I am not going to say what it is. It is up to you to figure that one out. But I believe that this had to happen. It brought my mother closer to god, her parents, and me. I am so glad that we no longer have a distance between one another. 

Anyways we decided to go to the movies today! Which move you ask? Well, we are going to watch a horror flick based on a true story called The Haunting of Connecticut! I love scary movies because it makes me scream like a banshee and gives me a rush. But not everyone wants to be around me when I watch these kinds of movies. Especially when everyone is staring at you, laughing, and making comments. But I really don't care. It is like a roller coaster! Your supposed to get excited, make noise, and scream. It is part of the experience. Well, anyway you guys better check out the movie yourselves! Not going to spoil it for anyone. 

Introduction into my life

This is my first blog and I thought it would be nice to talk about my life. So here it goes. I am a Chinese Korean Native American and I love being a mix. My life has barely started and I can't wait to see how these three cultures effect my future. Although a lot of people are surprised when they realize that I am not a pure blood (chinese). Because I really do look like I was born and raised in China. Especially since I have grammar issues and sometimes I pronounce words wrong.  But I swear that the only country I have been to besides the USA is Canada. Anyways enough about my nationality! I would love to talk about my love for pets and wild animals. I have owned hamsters, dogs, cats, fish, and butterflies. Most of them died and others were taken away from me. I miss all of them and I can't wait to get a new hamster named Morgtricia Addams! Now before you start thinking that I have bad streak with pets. I have to tell you that all of these pets have lived a wonderful life. I treat them like family and so when they die, my heart breaks. So anyways to talk about my love for wild animals I must tell you which ones are my favorite. Like lions, tigers, wolves, and cheetahs. These animals are fierce, beautiful, and loving and I would love to help them survive in this world. 

Now that you know some facts about me! Here is my day. This is the last school day before spring break and I am so happy. I can say goodbye to my stupid teacher who teaches Creative Writing. She is a controlling arrogant flip flopper! She told us that we had no homework this whole week and all we had for spring break was writing a play. But yesterday at the end of class she tells us we have a rough draft to do for that play. And of course no one in this class was prepared because they believed that they would finish the play over the 9 day break. But at least after she made that offense I enjoyed a whole period afterwards hearing them complain about her. And the more they talk about her, the more frustrated I am of her. Because this was not the first offense and it will not be the last. 2 months of school may not seem a lot! But when your stuck in a classroom with a teacher who makes everyone's life hell! She even makes people cry literally! The 2 months look a lot like 2 years. Anyways today had not events and nothing extremely exciting but my plans for the spring break will cure that. Movies, going out, eating out, shopping, hanging out and all of that good stuff. So that's it! Can't wait to write another blog later.
