I remember waking up crying hysterically. Knowing that my family died because of the nuclear bomb. But I survived. I started yelling, hoping there would be more people who had survived too. But all I heard was the echoing of my voice. I stood up and started walking, there was nothing else I could do. I kept on walking trying to find a place where I can sleep. But everything was destroyed and crumbled on the ground. It was darker and darker. I didn't have anywhere to sleep. Finally I found a building. It's torn down but not as bad as the rest oft he buildings. That is where I spent my first night alone.

The next day I was starving. I knew there wasn't going to be any food to eat since the nuclear bomb destroyed everything. So I decided to walk again, and yelled at the same time just hoping that there would be at least one person alive in the world besides me. Out of no where I heard  something that sounded like light whispers. It was coming from another building. I slowly walked inside just in case it was a crazy animal. But I heard the whispers growing louder and louder. There were four people in the corner crying and whispering everything is going to be okay. The four girls were re-leafed to see me too. But they looked so familiar to me. It was Vanessa, Kayla, Mallory, and Kiara. gave them the biggest hug I ever gave anybody. I squeezed them hard enough that I could fell there rib cages. We all started walking together. We didn't know where but we hoped we would end up getting to food and water. But nothing.

Today is our third day without food or water. We couldn't get up, we didn't have any energy left in us. So we wen't to sleep. But the next day we didn't wake up. I was okay with dieing in my sleep because now I could be able to see my family where ever I go, and hopefully they'll be there too. But I know it's better than trying to survive in a world where there is nothing left to use for survival.

My Great Grandpa...

I still remember the most depressing moment in my family's life. We heard the news through a phone call. I can still see the image in my mind in slow motion. Everyone was in the living room crying.  I kept asking my parents and sister what was going on. But it wasn't until later they told me the words I never imagined I would hear. My great grandpa has moved on. I had a hollow feeling in my heart. I felt empty inside. But what was running through my mind just made it worse.

I still cry about it when ever I hear the song that reminds me of him. I also think about how my family and I were here in the United States, and he was in Mexico when my great grandpa had died, and had to hear it through a phone call. But the worst thing is. I was a baby when he saw me. I don't remember what he looks like, what his voice sounds like. I don't remember anything about him and I hate the idea of that. But it's still nice to know that when he did see me. He loved me, and that's all that matters to me.

Even though my great grandpas passing happened a few years ago. I still get very emotional and cry when ever I talk about it. He will be in my heart always.

Tsunami Disaster In Japan/ Warning of Tsunami's in other locations

We all heard about the terrible tsunami that occurred in Japan on 3/10/11. Well first it was the earthquake then came the tsunami. Can you imagine that even happening. Well when I heard about it in the news I felt so scared for those people having to go through that terrible disaster. But I was relieved when I also heard some people LIVED THROUGH THAT! I really wished I could do something to help those people but for now i guess I can just pray that they will be okay, like my mom told me. On Saturday morning ( 3/19/11 ) my mom told my sister and I that when her and my dad were watching the news the other night on TV. The news reporter person said that there might be a tsunami in New York City and probably in New Jersey!!! The reporter said they don't know what day or what time, but that we need enough food for 3 DAYS!

I got so scared when my mom told me that. The reason why I got really scared was because the things that came to my head when she said that. The first thing that came to my head was 2012. The second thing that came to my head is how when the tsunami happened in Japan, not many people survived or lived. But I guess we deserve it too. I guess it's kind of like now we get a taste of our own medicine because of all the damage that WE'VE been doing to Earth, and Earth is giving it back. My mom was also thinking of running somewhere so we wont be in the tsunami if it does or when it happens. But the thing that my sister told me made me feel better. She said " But we can't just keep running away, because eventually it's going to catch you." Those words that my sister said made me realize that maybe it's for the best if the tsunami's happen, and that we shouldn't run away because even if you don't want to believe it, it going to catch you anyways. But I guess we'll just have to find out on our own when it happens one day.

Students Should Get More Passing Time In School

Us students should get more passing time, when going to our different classrooms. Reason One. In the periods that kids go to their lockers in passing time, they lose more time putting books in taking books out, etc. Which makes us rush to get to class on time. For example when we rush we forget things and teahcers now will not let us go back to our lockers and get what we forgot. This is also a bad thing with not having enough passing time, lets say Bobby forgot his math notebook in his locker with his homework in it! Now he wouldnt be able to get it because he doesnt have enough passing time and his math teacher wont let him.
Reason Two. In between some periods we are allowed to go into our lockers in passing time. Well lets say Bobby had papers in his hand and he just shoved them into his locker because he would be late to his next class. If we had an extended time in passing time he could put the papers into his binder or notebook neatly where his locker wont become a hot mess, and Bobby will never find time to clean up his locker. But if we had a longer passing time he would have enough time to put his paper or other extra things he doesnt nedd in his binder instead of throwing it and crumbling them up in his locker.
Reason Three. Lastly, if we had more passing time we could lock our locker locks really good so other students wouldnt flip them. These are my reasons why students should get more passing time in school.

Turtles... Turtles... TURTLES!





About a week ago, my uncle called and asked me if I wanted a pet turtle. Immediately I said YES. After I hung up, I noticed I don't know anything about taking care of a turtle. So I had to do allot of research. One thing I learned from my research is that female turtles grow twice as large as a male. For example a Painted turtle male can grows up to at least six inches... Imagine how big a female Painted turtle would be.

I also researched what type of food they eat. Turns out it's allot. But the sound of some of them, doesn't seem that appetizing to us. Anyways, after I finished my research. It looks like a bunch of more work than you can think of, for example, how much water they need, what temperature, if it's a Basking Turtle it needs a basking are so it can totally dry off, the food they eat, etc. But hopefully once I get my turtle. I'll be able to handle it.

               Examples Of What Turtles Eat:

•  Lettuce
• Turtle food from store
• Worms
• Waxing Worms
• Dog Food Can... But only for a treat once in a while
• Squash
• Strawberries
• Banana's
• Berries
