Movie Adaptations

Grey's Anatomy:

If anyone has ever watched this show on ABC has to like it a little bit! I love this show cause there is so much going on that it leaves you wondering for the next episode. Becuase this is a TV show, it would be hard to include everything in it. But there are certain parts that I would keep to make this into a movie. For example the whole love triangle with Meredith, Derek, and Addison at the very beginning. Meredith ends up with him at this point, but goes through a lot of rough times and they split up time after time. In my movie I would make them finally get married, build thier dream house and live happily ever after (mostly because I love things like that happy ending fairy tale stuff!). I would also include Izzy's brain tumor that is making her ill. She goes through a couple scares but pulls out of it, and ends up with Alex because just before her scare they were getting close. Then obviously there would be multiple different cases of patients through out the movie because they all work at a hospital so it's kind of a given. I couldn't recast this because they all fit their parts really well. Someone spent a whole lot of time matching the characters with actors, and I wouldn't want to change it for a movie becuase now I see them as thier characters.

Looking Forward

There are a lot of things that I could possibly look forward too, but then again I don't want to waste away the time I have now. There are always other sides to everything. Right now I'm looking forward for summer to be here, I love warm weather and sun. I have three more days of school left and I will be graduating. I can't wait to get out of school because that means no more homework for a few months. The downside to that is that I'm a senior this year, I'm graduating and going to college four hours away and that scares me a little. It is exciting that I will meet new people and make new friends, but I also know that there will be many that I will never see or talk to again. I have been with the same group of kids for six years and to know that it's a little sad to be going away. This summer I plan on working a lot and then being lazy and being with friends for some of the last times. I love laying out, and swimming so I can't wait for that. I am also going to the Ozarks in August and DEFINATELY CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT!! I absolutely love the Ozarks.

Favorite Candies :)

1. Tootsie Rolls- These give you the satisfaction of chocolate but not as much calories as say a Hershey bar or something.
2. Starburts-There are 4 original colors of starburst and I like them all, but my favorite is red ones, then yellow, then pink, then orange.
3. Sour Patch Kids- These make me make funny faces sometimes!
4. Reses Peanut Butter Cups- Whoever thought to put chocolate and peanut butter together is my hero. This is probably a girls best friend at certain times :)
5. M & M's- I like to split these up by color then eat them one color at a time!
6. Twix- I have to be in the mood for caramel and chocolate, but I like it when I am!
7. Red Twizzlers- Makes me think about baseball games for some reason...
8. Pull and Peel Twizzlers- My cousin got me hooked on these, so that is what him and I ask for with our christmas presents from our grandma.
9. Skittles- I like the red ones the best out of this bag.
10. Fun Dip- The sugar is the best part of this, I don't like the sugar stick plain, that they give you to eat it with though.

Cast of my Life

(Some names have been changed for privacy)

Kent is my little brother. He is 3 years younger than me and is the most amazing brother anyone could ask for. We get along great a lot of the time. Sure we have our little fights but we get over it pretty fast. He is an athletic and smart kid and is very energentic and can be humorous in whatever he does. I would probably get Adam Sandler to play him because they can be ridiculous sometimes but always knows how to bring the fun into something that is not.

Nicole has been a close friend for almost my whole life. She likes some gossip but nothing really bad and she can sometimes be high maintenance. To me that reminds me of Beyonce Knowles because even though Nicole isn't as materialistic, she can remind me of wanting things her way.

Renee is one of my best friends and has been for six years. She is more laid back, doesn't really do much of anything. She plays sports, but doesn't go out much besides with close friends and her boyfriend. The actor I would choose to play her would be Katie Holmes because she is the down home girl type that just goes with the flow, never really has a plan.

Colleen is like my older sister except she isn't biologically related to me at all. But I grew up around her and even though she is 30 and I'm 18 now, it' s like we are closer in age. She is one of those girls that never have really grown up completely. She knows how to act professional when the time is serious like at work, but outside of those things, it's almost as if I have a twin sister to talk to and goof around with. I would choose Kristie Alley as her actor, because she is so funny and childish sometimes that they just remind me of each other.

The actress I would cast to play me would be, Lindsay Lohan because I have been told that I have a few similar facial looks. And besides all the partying and stuff I am fun and energetic like her.

Perfect Boyfriend

My perfect boyfriend would be someone who doesn't lie and is always truthful about what is going on. They need to be able to open up to me and still be able to listen to me. I wish that this person would always know what I wanted without me saying something, for example when I just want to be left alone, or when I need a shoulder to cry on. Their interests would be just athletic and in shape. That will also push me to be a better person. He would have to be a little taller than me, but not like 6 foot maybe like... 5.5 to 5.9? Their build would have to be not fat, but not really skinny. His muscles on his arms are the best part! Um, I don't want to be mean but ethnicity would never be asian...possibly white or black. Brown or blue eyes. A singing voice and be able to play the guitar would be great! As for names...I like the name Lucas but he can't go by Luke, it has to be Lucas. I also like Kevin, and Matt as names, but whatever it's not like I have a preference like set in stone. We would meet through a mutual friend and start off just completely hit it off and would talk all night about everything like we have known each other a long time. That is just one possibility.

Apology

Dear best friend,
I'm really sorry about all that has happened recently. I was always there for you and you were for me. I always thought of you as just a friend that I could tell everything. Likewise you tell me everything too. Then you decided to throw things off and tell me that you think of me as more and have for a very long time. I didn't know what to say and I feel bad now that I didn't say anything. I'm just afraid that you will be angry with me because I have not thought about you more than just my best friend. And I just so so sorry about that..I just want you to know that I'm scared to lose you as a best friend. And I'm sorry that I don't want to be more. I hope that you don't take this as bad as I think you will...and that you will forgive me.

House History

I really don't know anything about my house history. I know my parents bought it as their first house. It originally had a back porch, kitchen, living/dining room, a bathroom, and 3 bedrooms. It was a one story house and was very small. When my brother came along they decided to add on to our house. I was 6 my brother was 3. They built on to the living/dining room and kept that the dining room and the new part was the living room. They bulit theirselves a new bedroom with a walk-in bathroom and closet. Along with a basement. I still think my house is small, but it is bigger than it was..
Nothing crazy or scary has happened inside my house at all, so I really have nothing on my house.

My Odd Habit

At first I really couldn't think of an odd habit I had. I'm sure I have one that I do I just have never really paid attention because it is obviously a habit. So it is just something I do. As I sat here a little longer I would have to say that one that I thought about that is kind of weird considering that I am 18 years old and still do it is I check my closet before I get into bed. I'm not scared of the dark anymore, and I certainly know there are no such thing as monsters that hide in my closet. So why do I still do it? I'm not really sure. After my nightly routine of brushing my teeth, taking my contacts out, and washing my face, I turn on my fan. Turn the lights out and go to my closet, turn on that light, open the door and look, before hitting the lights out and getting into bed. I'm really not sure what I'm looking for or anything, I just do it and always have.

I Hate My Job

I work at a gas station right now on the weekends. I absolutely could not stand it for the rest of my life! For the most part I think I hate it because I'm a senior in high school and I have to work every Friday and Saturday night and don't get off until 9:30PM. But there are also some pretty rude people that take things out on you even if you did absolutely nothing! And I can't stand people like that. I understand that you may have had a rough day, but that is no reason to be rude. Like one time this lady came in and tried to buy cigarettes with her debit card, and it got declined the first time. There was a line behind her ready to check out and she made me try it again. Once again it got declined, and she yelled at me and said that it was our system that was down and that it was bull sh**! But then the guy behind her used his card and it ran through perfectly fine!! I was so angry! There is also really nothing to do at the gas station when there aren't people there to deal with. I just sit there, stock the cups, and cigarettes, and chew. I absolutely hate my job there and am probably going to quit when softball starts in a month. And I most definately cannot see myself ever doing that again!!

"Urban legends"

Have you ever been told that if you shave your hair it will grow back darker and thicker? I have always thought that because that is just what I heard and I just took it for what it was. I never questioned it. But now according to the website of snopes.com it says it is false. Now you and I both know!

Beloved Toy

My favorite toy when I was little was my doll. It was one of those "feel so real" baby dolls. I got her when I turned 2 and my parents really didn't understand that she was so heavy. So when they got it out of the box and handed it to me I could barely hold on to her. That is when she adopted the name Brick Baby, thanks to my dad! And that name stuck, I never named her anything else. But I loved it to death! The inside had like what felt like bones (plastic) and jelly-like stuff, with a tough rubber-like skin. She was all mine and I didn't have to share her with anyone. At this point in my life, my brother wasn't born yet, so my baby doll was my best friend (along with an imaginary friend, but that is a whole other story). I talked to her and, and put her to bed. All the things a little girl can do with a baby doll. One day one of the fingers ripped a little and the gooey, jelly-like, sticky from the inside started coming out. I had to wash her up and then I made a little cast for her. It was just paper towel and scotch tape, but it did the job. I would periodically change the cast when it got too much stuff on it. I felt like I was actually taking care of it and I wouldn't let my mom throw her away. After a while I obviously grew out of this baby doll stage, but she is still in my room to this day. She was my first and only toy that I have kept around so long, so she means a lot to me.

Letter to Future Child

Dear future child,
I am your mother and I am writing you as a senior in high school. I am getting ready for a lot of hard decisions, like what to do with the rest of my life and where to go for college. I still am undecided and this is my second semester, I have a fall back plan for community college in case a university falls through and I can’t decide. So just know that you don’t have to know what you want to do immediately. You always have options and time. I play softball now, but tried many sports over the years, there are so many things you can do. I hope you will turn out better than me because every parent wants better for their child. Mostly I want you to have as much fun as possible, I want to let you do things that I never got to do. I don’t want you to look at your childhood when you grow up and regret it. It’s hard to predict what exactly the world will be like when you come around. Right now there are so many bad things in the world, but don’t get me wrong there are a lot of good things too and the United States is making progress every year. We just elected the first African American president that is a big step as you will learn throughout school.

Love always,
Mother

Childhood Fear

Do you remember what you were afraid of when you were a child? Was it monsters? Or swimming? What about getting lost in a big store, all by yourself? When I was little I was afraid of the dark, but just during the night. I was fine if I knew it was day outside and I was in a dark place, but it was something about it being night outside and me being in a dark place. When I would go to bed, I always would put my covers over my head because that made me feel safe. I used to let myself think that if I had the covers over my head, no one or nothing could find me. I would not go to the bathroom during the night I would just hold it until the morning because I was afraid something would get me if I were to step a foot outside of my bed in the darkness. I absolutely hated the dark, I always felt like there was something there just waiting for me.

Definition of a Poem- January 9th, 2009

My definition of a poem is a piece of writing someone uses to express their feelings, or past experiences. There are so many different emotions that people feel and of they are writers or like to write, they will discuss the things they feel. Such as happiness, sadness, anger, love, hate, and physically hurting. They can also write little instances in their life they have experienced. It can be a big or little event that has taken place. For example we read a poem during class where a mother wrote a poem about her son growing up. This is just one example of the many things a poem can be about.
