I am poem

I am a smiling girl
I wonder about the world
I hear rain
I see animals
I want a laptop
I am a smiling girl
I pretned to be on vacation
I feel happy
I touch silk
I worry about my friends
I cry when things are sad
I am a smiling girl
I understnad that life isn't fair
I say encouragement
I dream about the future
I try to dance
I try to dance
I hope for peace
I am a smiling girl

Break!

I wish we were still on break.  It was so fun! My dad hurt his back on Christmas eve so he stayed home and we went over to my aunt's house to have lunch with my grandparents; it was a lot of fun.  We stayed home and watched movies and played board games then, we had cheese and crackers for dinner.  After dinner, we opened pajamas and me and my sister stayed up all night! I don't know why we did we just did it was so fun!! On Christmas I got a piano keyboard, new running shoes and a new pair of headphones. After we opened presents I got a popcorn maker, clothes, a new camera, a new phone, a cheap printer( I don't even have a computer!) and Just Dance 2!
        Thursday before New Years I went to a New Years stake dance with my friend. It was so weird at first but, I got used to it. They had really good songs and almost everyone was dancing! We met up with some of other friends but, still stuck together in a big group. The most I remember it about it is that it was so hot! Everyone was sweating and you would leave the room just to get air it was really stuffy.  We would go outside in the cold probably fifteen degree weather to escape the hot air.  They also had a ton of food. A chocolate fountain, water jugs and red vines. I can't believe I danced for four hours! We were so tired after we went to my house and she slept over we basically fell asleep on my couches.

Utopias

       Utopias are counter intuitive.  They limit choice and agency and they are choosing the path of someones  future.  They are supposed to be paradise but, instead they are complete anarchy! They are going no where they will always stay the same; since there is no choice there is no progress, and without progress there is no paradise.  Of course they have predestination and  predestination is the reason why people rebelled; no one likes their future decided for them. Most people believe that they make their own destiny with the choices that they make. There hasn't been one utopia that has survived.  Each and everyone fails in some unique way.  Like the one I researched was Harmony, Pennsylvania. They had equal pay for everyone of the citizens; and the citizens rebelled as some wanted to be rich and above everyone else.  Some got sick with chicken pox and you can guess what happened; they burnt the place to the ground and the rest died from sickness.
          I like an imperfect world.  I never realized how lucky I am until I read "The Giver".  So there is sickness and death and sadness and loss but, I know what true happiness is and what good health feels like and I now whats it like to be alive. An imperfect world is an ideal living for most because most of us life is hard. I love this quote I heard" If life was easy, it wouldn't be hard." That goes without saying, we have to have imperfection to have perfection so when you remove the imperfection there is no perfection. No paradise. Nothing. I hope there is no more utopia attempts in my life or after my life. Because if life was easy it wouldn't be hard........

My review of Harry Potter

I already don't like Harry Potter too much.  I mean, the books; they were so boring (well the first book anyway) so I kind of had low expectations.  But, when it started out it was ok.  But, they were constantly running from one place to another it never seemed to end!  They ran away from the Ministry of Magic and then, they ran to an arctic environment and next, a forest; kind of hard to follow at some points.  I won't give away the ending or anything, but I will tell you that the movie was non-stop action through out the whole show. Even the end.  I want to give it three out of four but, I think it in the end deserved a two or a two and a half.  The reason?  I just thought for people who haven't read the book, wouldn't understand a lot of it.  And the action got a little boring at times but, at least  there acting was good. No cheesy smiles or anything.  I liked it, I recommend seeing it, it is something to see. ( Something pretty exciting)

My poor cat!

         I have six wonderful pets. I have one dog, Drake and  three cats, Shadow, Poss and Elly then, I have two birds; Rocky and Kiwi.  Unlike, my dog and birds our cats are wild!   They  go outside constantly and, have many adventures of their own; however territory is a big issue with cats.  And they have one enemy. He's a vicious predator that tries to steal territory from other cats! Our cats don't just hand over their hard earned land to some  cat, just because he's a male.  This cat seems to go by the name Bo and he means trouble! He has wounded our cats heavily they have been bit, scratched, chased and just about about anything a cat could do.   Don't think my cats don't fight back because they do. We've seen him, and it isn't pretty.  Well last Saturday my little Siamese Elly came up the stairs.  Limping.  She was in another cat fight and her leg was bitten, right on her left paw pad.  We let her inside and in a nice blanket; she was fatigued and slept soundly.  We let her in the garage, were she usually sleeps but, this time she slept in and old wagon that was deep in the garage. 
She had been even lazier than usual and we finally saw a good look at her foot it was swollen, to twice it's size.  She had  barely moved in days and we became worried.  She hadn't ate much and she was getting skinny, which is usual for cats this time of year. We finally took her to the vet on Wednesday, and the vet confirmed it was an animal bite though, Elly was so fussy he had to sedate her to get a good look at the infected leg.  Luckily, they cleaned all the infection out and now she is healing and well!
