whoa! weird...

haha... This has nothing to do with College English but this is just too funny. When Mrs. Starhia was talking about how a Bryan called her phone at 1 in the morning and when his voicemail was described as, "Hey. Its Bryan..." (in a very deep voice) I instantly knew who it was... It was my boyfriend, the Mr. Bryan Bell. But, I think that his phone is possessed. His phone was dead! Weird huh?! Well, I thought I better clear that one up! Cracks me right up!

1984: Quote

The quote I choice was, The past not only changed, but changed continuously.

I hope you all have a wonderful christmas break.

Cant wait to get back to hear the first controversial issue on friday.

1984: Quote

My quote for today was Freedom is Slavery, because freedom has no value if there is no counter part. I was really upset we didnt get through the whole circle today im also excited to come back from break and see the first presentaion. I really found it interesting that our reality kind of relates to our lives today. Also if anyone has any ideas for there senior portfolio please clue me in!

50 Years From Now...

50 years from now I realize how much I have missed throughout the years. I am married now with four children. Three boys and a precious little girl. They're all starting there own families and I now have grandchildren. I tell them stories of their parents growing up and how much the remind me of each other. My husband and I are retired and living in a beautiful waterfront house in Florida. We sit in our chairs on the beach talking about our first date and the day of our wedding...how times have changed.

Technology is everywhere now, is a necessity by all -- almost like the air we breathe. So many things have developed that I couldn't even have imagined occurring years ago. They have even found a cure for cancer, a miraculous discovery! But through all the technology family is still the core of my life. My husband, kids, and grandchildren are what keep me going each day. They're what put a smile on my face and keep laughter in my voice. And for my husband and I, we're still as in love as we were in college....

I Really Don't Want to Procrastinate

So I'm the typical teenager, I always say that I want to get my projects/homework done early so I have nothing to worry about. But then I get really lazy and about one-two days before something is due I decide to start. I should really stop doing this though, with college ahead and whatnot-so I already have started on my senior portfolio and I think if I stay on top of it and give myself deadlines that I'll do a great job on it! I have already asked one person to do one of my letters of recommendation and I started writing my introduction letter!
Good luck to everyone on their senior portfolio!

Another 28 years later...the movie!

This was my free write, but I decided to fix small grammar errors and post the idea.  If you ask me, it would make a bit-...cool video game or movie.

I see myself walking down a dirt road, then I wake up.  I'm in a hospital.  I can barly move, but my arms look well preserved.  The room is colorful, and my bed is centered, not in a corner.  I fall as I get out of bed.  My mind is that of a 18 year old, but my body is much too frail to be normal.  I leave the room, and as I leave, the colorful patterns vanish and the room is blank white.
The halls are plaid and dull.  NO paper anywhere.  A man in black walks over to me, (an android?) and touches my hand.  Then states my name.
Doctors and nurses rush from the doors and tell me to breath slowly.
They tell me that I fell and hit my head on concrete, and have been in a coma for around 50 years.  (I don't recall and concrete, or falling for that matter.)  They say the only reason I've  been alive is that my parents have been paying for me to be on life support.  However, they both recently passed on, and with no one to pay my bill, a new experimental procedure was preformed to make use of my body.  The [surgury] was a sucsess, and now I was to be studied for two weeks.
After one month, I was moved to a homless shelter, just outside of the hospital.  Apperently, America had nuked all of Korea in a defensive move to stop a nuclear war between North and South. The U.N. was very displeased, and now the third wolrd war is in effect.
The city is very segregated.  The center is full of lights and power, with very few people (civilians).  And everything surrounding the center is slums, most of which have no power.

Thats it... time ended and I stopped writing.
Maybe I try to stop another nuke from going off and become a "hero" or find a typical government base with secrets.  I'm not sure, but I think the whole concept is pretty neat-o.

questions?

I have two questions so far. I dont want to sound dumb but on the controversial issue I have found a good site and I would like to use it but it has more than one author and this website I asuume pulled information from their work and made it all in one. Im not sure how to set that one up because there is more than one author.

Second question is it said it posted my blog on 1984 but I can not find it no where.

Help Please. I dont mean to sound dumb.
