Governer: Sarah Palin, R (to Dec. 2010)
Alaska accounts for 25% of the oil produced in the United States.
Located near Prudhoe Bay, on the northern Alaskan coast, is North America's largest oil field. Every day, millions of gallons of oil are removed from Prudhoe Bay and pumped through the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. The pipeline, maintained by Alyeska Pipeline Service Company, snakes its way from Prudhoe Bay on Alaska's northern coast to the southcentral port of Valdez where the oil is pumped into tankers. One of the largest pipeline systems in the world, the Trans-Alaska Pipeline moves up to 88,000 barrels of oil per hour on its 800 mile journey to Valdez http://www.johnnyseastriverlodge.com/alaska.html
I learned in Sophmore economics that the oil tankers go up to Alaska and take oil from Alaska then bring it back down to the West coast states (Washington, Oregon, California)

Things that are happening in my life
Some stuff that is challenging in my life is:
My family
Relationships
My family is challenging right now, why? Because I got myself in trouble with my mother on Tuesday night I went to my ex boyfriends house and I was supposed to be at my place no later than dinner time (five or six.) I walked in my house at eight because I missed the bus. My mother didn't believe me that I missed it. We yell a lot when I am not responsible for what I am needing to do. Me and my mom go at a lot and we're like jail cell mates. I told her that her comeback was, "If you don't do stuff that I tell you to do then we won't fight like this everyday!" I love my mom dearly in the heart. I just hate it when we fight it's not really fun. My mom and father want me to change my life and let it be easier for me as well as them. I need to do what I am told, be mature enough and handle my responsibilities.

Scary or Embarrassing Moment
Me and my friend were getting ready to go to her house in Keizer. I like to walk around and go back and forth to my bedroom and grab stuff. She likes to follow me wherever I go and I forgot that she does that. So I headed back to the bathroom and I dropped a pair of my panties on the ground. She went to pick them up and I didn't realize it and I screamed because she was in front of me and I didn't know it. To me it was scary/funny, but she was just cracking up a storm. I hated her about ten minutes because she scared me for the second time when I was blow drying my hair in the bathroom. She walked in and scared the living crap out of me. Now I usually lock the door so that doesn't happen again.
