My choice!

I'm going to Portland to my Aunt Malia's house today and coming home on Sunday. My Uncle Mike is going on a business trip to Seattle. She asked me if I'm doing anything for Halloween. I said no. Today I am going home to pack to go to my aunts house. Then my dad is going to take me to the GreyHound station to buy my ticket. This morning my mom told me (like a worried parent she is) "You don't know people on the bus, so just read your book and listen to music."
I responded, "I already know mom." I love my mother, but sometimes she needs to know that I am not her little girl anymore. I'm growing up.

Formal letter

Dear Rebekah,

I would love to have confidence to be successful and to be smart. I've been in read 180 since seventh grade. None of the read 180 classes has helped me, until I went to Roberts Downtown Learning Center. I never liked to read books because I never took my time to look for books I enjoy. Now I can't get my nose out of books. I've improved my lexile, reading score, and comprehension all thanks to this school that gives undivided attention to every student that hasn't done great throughout high school.

Sincerely,
Mackenzie Rowley

My two loving dogs

We just got Bella on Memorial weekend. She is a pitbull and a lab. Bella is full of energy, play full, happy, and smart. Bella always likes to be scratched on her bottom (she goes nuts when you do that to her). Whenever she has a toy in her mouth she'll drop it in your lap (I try to ignore her), but I give in and throw her toy. When I pick up her toy her energy level is so high in the sky and she is happy that someone is paying attention to her. Bella is determined to catch her toy. Its funny how when you're about to throw her toy, her facial expression always makes me laugh.

Megan is a long haired daschound. She is orange with white paws, white chest, and freckles on her feet and nose. Daschound's are always loud, barking, and wanting attention seven days a week. Megan can be a spoiled brat, steal food on your plate and try to attack Bella when she gets near her and me. She is attached to me. I've went to California for a week came back and she wouldn't get out of my hair. Megan kept jumping on my legs and trying to get attention like she was a squid suction cupped on my leg (that's not the first thing I want to come home too). Megan doesn't fetch. Only Bella does. I tried but she just looks at me like what are you trying to say and do.

Poem we read in class (This be the verse)

The author wrote this poem to tell people not to trust anyone in this world. I like this poem because it is very truthful. It's true about parents when they are mad or drinking they tend to blame you for their faults.

Poem about hair

Hair is long and shiny
Hair can go down to your hinny
It can be curly or straight
Appreciate and don't hate
Be nice and donate

This weekend

I have an interview with Aeropostale. I was suppose to go to my aunt Malia's house since my uncle Mike is out of town for a business trip, but I can't because of the interview I have going on this weekened. My parents are interested in doing a 5k with me, we're all athletic. I wish I could see Kyle (my boyfriend) but things aren't going well. Today i'm going home and sleeping.

I love this song by Easton Corbin

The main idea to this song is. There is a black and white side to everyone (nobody is perfect). You don't get everything you want from someone you care about.

"I'm a little more country than that". I have a boyfriend that is a little bit older than me. We have gone through the same issues with relationships. Kyle told me listen to this song and it would tell me about his feelings towards a women he cares about. The song made me speechless and it made sense how he does feel about a women he cares about. Kyle doesn't want to say those three little words to a women and then take it back.



"I'm a little bit more country than that" lyrics:
Imagine a dirt road full of pot holes with a creek bank and some cane poles cathching channel cat im a little more country than that picture your small town with and old hound laying out front of the court house while the old men chew the fat im a little more country than that i just want to make sure you know just who your getting under this old hat cuz girl im not the kind to two time or play games behind your back im a little more country than that think of a hank song from days gone where the steal ride is so strong it sends chills up your back im a little more country than that if you want a brick home in a school zone with the doors locked and alarms on girl your way off track im a little more country than that i just want to make sure you know just who your getting under this old hat cuz girl im not the kind to two time or play games behind your back im a little more country than that yeah' im sure that you herd those three words from others but they fell flat but this ring aint something that i mean to give you then take back im a little more country than that im a little more country than that im a little more country than that.

Why do people write poetry?

People write poetry for lots of reasons. You can write to get your emotions out, how you struggled with your life when you were young about a loved one, and your aggression. There are some really great poems that I have read. It reflects on some situations I've been in.

A place that I would want to visit again, but scary

I don't know if you've heard about Zena backwards church. I have been to many times to remember. I went with some group of friends at three a.m. at the cemetery. We parked our car in the orchards, walked through the orchards. I heard from people and did some research of my own about Zena church. That when you walk through the orchards you can hear a little girl and boy playing with their toys. They will follow you then follow you through rocks behind your feet and go to the maiden kitchen and continue to play. It was freaky. Another time was with a group of friends and we started walking towards the gate and my friend said "Hold on I don't feel to well, wait". So I waited for him he pucked on the side of the road. I didn't know where the rest of my friends went. Sixten and I walked up the gravel road and tried to find the rest of our friends. We decided to look in the church windows. We spotted a light and silhouette of a old man (FREAKY). We finally found the rest of our friends in the grave yard. They were taking pictures, laying on graves, and playing weegie board game. I have been there SO many times I can go on and on talking about Zena church.

A place that I call home

I label my bedroom as my apartment. It's a big room, but I live in a house (might not make sense but it does to me). My room is really cozy, warm, comfortable, and you can be yourself. I call it my own space to think and get away from my family and friends. My friends are always shocked by how many products I have in my room. I love it because I can spice up my style everyday. It's cool to me. In one corner I have all my things that belong to me including my bed, and in another part of my room I have a television with a play station hooked up to my t.v. I barely watch or play games on it. I wish I could add a cozy couch, but I would have to find one that is in good shape and affordable.

What I remember about Semptember 11th

I heard A LOT about September 11th on the news, people chatting, at school and whole family. It was devastating to me what these terrorists did. Why did they do it? Maybe some scientists know why they did it, but I want to know for myself. A lot of people were crying, people lost plenty of family and friends. People worked at the twin towers. I wouldn't know where to run to the nearest exit. People that worked at the very top of the building would die instantly because that is where the plan hit.

Where would I go outside the Unites States

I went to my aunt Jai's house last weekend I have two aunt's that are twins. I haven't seen her for over two years. I have only seen her three times out of my eighteen years. So I didn't know much about her. She was telling me a story about South Africa and how when you walk down path ways (they aren't streets just mud path ways), you see little children that look like they live in the garbage, peeing in holes, having barely any shelter over their heads.They didn't have a toilet like majority of people in the United States. They don't have shoes, no money, and killing pigs and lambs to eat just for dinner. Basically anything that has four legs that is living. I'm a person that likes to take risks and see different places out of my comfort zone, it's very interesting. It made me devastated what my aunt Jai was telling me about this country how people can still survive and live in the outdoors. We, the people in the United States, are so lucky to have shelter, food on the table, shoes, clothes, water to bath ourselves, and a toilet.

My ideal day

On a sunny day me, my boyfriend, my family, and his family would go to a local park, have a great BBQ, and play park games. My family hasn't met Kyle's family. I would love my family to meet his family one day. Just by me meeting Kyle's family it's clear that our families are similar. Both families are goofy and they don't care who judges them. My family has met Kyle and they love him for who he is. My parents told me he is a winner because I have found the right man that is some what like me (goofy, crazy, down for whatever, dare devil, always smiling, and stress free life.) That would be my ideal day.

My most embarrasing moment....

was when I was getting ready for school. I had an hour to get ready (do my hair, my make up, and pick out an outfit). I put on my eye shadow, later I put on mascara primer (which was white) and I walked to the bath room, to move on to do my hair. When I was done doing my hair I got dressed and ran out the door. When I got to school I was pulled aside from one of my friends and she said "Girl you need to fix you mascara. You have white eye lashes!" I got embarrassed and started laughing, cause it looked like I had a disease on my eye lashes. But now I look at myself in the mirror and make sure that I don't have white eye lashes, so I don't go to school looking all weirded out.
