Friendship

Friendship

Friendship is like a flower

It blooms with love & brightness

Yet it is tough like a rock

But fragile like glass

Even with the wind blowing, it stays still

But with one –PLUCK- it flies away

Friendship is the same

It stays together like pack

But with one slip, it can all come crashing down

The flower then plants its’ seeds & re-grows with beauty

Then our friendship comes back & stays strong 

Thirteen

I finished 2 books but here is one of them. Thirteen by Lauren Myracle. There are 4 in all but I have only read this one cause I turned 13 in Nov. Winnie Perry is a teenager-at last!! And it likes a really big deal. A ginormous deal, which, wouldn't know it, brings ginormous problems along with it! Winnie's BFF #1 is growing up too slowly, while her BFF #2 is growing up too fast, leaving Winnie stuck in the middle. Winnie's boyfriend, Lars, is fabulous-except when he's not. Oh how she wishes for it to be more like in her head. And as for Winnie's family, well, BIG CHANGES are in the air! This book was so great and funny. It really does help with all the teen drama that we as teens have to deal with. Plus if you just turned 13 (LIKE ME!) or will be soon...I would say read this! The next one is Thirteen Plus One...that will be good but I haven't read it yet. But I would say read this one! :D -Hannah 

The Symbol Of Beauty

 The Symbol of Beauty

 We watch the sun go down and the colors just burst out.

We see the butterflies spread their wings and fly

The sound of birds singing from tree to tree

All is still, all is right

We grasp its beauty in our palm for we wish it to stay

But once again it all disappears at once

Though we wish it all stayed...

We feel lucky to have seen the true beauty that is here

At First Bite!

I am the reading queen! Hahaha...I finished another book it is At First Bite by Ruth Ames. It is a Poison Apple Book. Ever since she became a full-fledged vampire, things haven't been easy for twelve-year-old Ashlee Lambert. After moving from New York City to sunny Los Angeles, she's excited to make a fresh new start. But Ashlee never counted on a clique of popular mean girls who won't let her in their group or awful sunburns. Keeping her huge secret is suddenly harder than ever. And when something-or someone- starts attacking people at her school, Ashlee realizes she's not the only vampire in town. It's up to Ashlee and her friends to figure out who's behind the attacks before her cover is blown forever! I loved this book! I wish it had gone into stuff but hey that lets you pick the ending. It shows some things that you may have never gone through or just ever thought about. I think you should read it! LOL :) & don't worry have a lot more books to read...

Bridge to Terabithia

I finished another book! And I have a lot more...haha!! It is called Bridge To Terabithia by Katherine Paterson. A secret world of their own...Jess Aaron's greatest ambition is to be the fastest runner in the fifth grade. He's been practicing all summer long and can't wait to see his classmates' faces when he beats them all! But on the first day of school, a new girl boldly crosses over to the boys' side of the playground and outruns everyone! That isn't a very good start or promising beginning for a friendship, but Jess and Leslie Burke become inseparable. Leslie has imagination. Together, she and Jess create Terabithia, a magical kingdom in the woods where the two of them rule as king and queen, and their imaginations set the only limits. Then one morning a terrible tragedy occurs. Only when Jess is able to come to grips with this tragedy does he finally understand the strength and courage Leslie has given him. I loved this book! It really  shows something everyone needs to know. I mean friendship is something everyone needs and it can be hard to do things without friends. Plus you can always make some place to where you can just be yourself. This book is really good! Its a must read. :) 

Coke(Coca-Cola)

We have heard of Coke! It has been around since 1886.(I think) At first it was used for medicine but then it became a soft drink!!! It was made in these kind of bottles...glass. I think that is cool! But the Makers of Coke made a new product of Coke but no one liked it so they had to take all the bad coke out of stores & put the one people liked which is now what we have today......Original Coke! My great grandfather, Granddaddy Jack, favorite drink was Coke and when we would go to his house, my dad, brother, & I would always get coke for our drink. I loved to drink out of the glass coke because I had never seen anything like it & thought it was cool that I got to drink out of it. Plus one my favorite memories would be Jack holding the coke bottle...Coke will always & forever be my favorite soft drink! Sorry Mellow Yellow...GO COKE! :) 

Secrets, Lies, and Algebra

I finished another book...Secrets, Lies, and Algebra by Wendy Lichtman. Tess loves math...(I do too!) because its the one subject she can trust-there's always just one right answer and it never changes. Plus if it isn't right you know its wrong and that doesn't change either. But then she starts algebra, and is introduced to those pesky and mysterious variables, which seem to be everywhere in eighth grade. When even your friends and parents can be variables, how in the world do you find out the right answers to really important questions, like what to do about a boy you like or whom to tell when someone's done something really bad?? Will Tess's life ever stop changing long enough for her to figure it all out?? I love this book. It is really good & everything starts changing you just can't keep up. It will get better along the way I bet though..this is good. Read or not..I think you should read it for those who just don't have the answers to some things.
