Writer's Block: Six-Word Story

  • Aug. 14th, 2008 at 10:09 PM

Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” He is believed to have called it his greatest literary work ever. Can you write a story in six words?

Family

  • Aug. 10th, 2008 at 9:49 AM

As far as family I do not have the perfect one, a long with every one else. I grew up living with my Grandma and Grandpa; at first, it was just my sister and I. She's a year younger than me and technically shes my half sister, but I don't see it that way. For kinder and first I went to live with my aunt without my sister. I hated living  there because my three cousins were boys and they'd always pick on me. I felt so alone over there and I was just a little kid lol. Finally, I moved back with my sister and Grandparents. I forgot if I was unaware of my mom or what, but I would see my grandma as my mom, I even called her mom. Ocassionally my mom would be home to take care of my sister and I, but she would sleep, so me and my sister just took care of ourselves. My dad was also see me once in a while, but I wasn't much aware of him either. My mom was always in and out of jail ever since I was little because she had drug problems. And, unfortunately, she didn't care about her kids at the moment. Too bad for her, because she had twin boys. We all grew up with our grandparents raising us and It wasn't a big problem. Now my mom is improving, stopped the drugs so far, and she is living with us. My grandma got kind of sick but she is improving too. I don't see my dad a lot, but I don't mind, I don't need a dad. My brothers, or one of my brothers is now currently the problem. Hes about nine and he has a huge mental problem or something. If he doesn't get his way he goes psycho path seriously. He gets hammer, knives, yesterday, he hit my mom in the knee with a hammer. My mom thinks he has a psychological problem. Me and my sister just think he was born evil. Today, his nina from Arizona came to take him for two weeks, but he ran outside and won't come back in. They want to figure out why he's so angry..Idk ,but he causes a lot of problems....

Why is this Happening?!!

  • Aug. 7th, 2008 at 11:33 AM

I am starting to become farther away from my bestfriends. I barely even talk to them. In fact, I haven't talk to one since summer school. The only person I've been talking to is my boyfriend! Do they think I'm boring or something? We use to have so much fun times together since like eigth grade. Now its starting to break apart, they don't even call me anymore. What if they're doing a bunch of fun stuff over the summer without me? Hopefully when school starts this will be better....

Do you miss anyone right now? What past experiences with this person, or these persons, make it easy for you to miss them?

 I miss my boyfriend since he lives two states way. We met freshman year and we hung out all the time at school. Everyone thought we like eachother because we were always talking, but we were to scared to admit it. Finally, on the last day of school he attacked me with a giant, unexpected hug. I was so happy, but it was his hug goodbye because he was moving and he thought I wouldn't see him again. We were wrong and we talked all summer and tried to hangout at every moment we could. One day, I ditched summer school to hangout with him. It was the first time it would be just us two. I thought it would be awkward, but it wasn't at all. We kept walking and talking, not knowing where we were going. We arrived at the park, but got bored so we went to the market. lol Then we went through this shortcut I knew that would lead us to another park. We were swinging on the swings and playing on the toys like little kids. Then, we climbed a tree at the park and sat up there for a while, just looking at eachother. We jumped down, and headed towards a friend's house that was close by the park. We visited, the left and I walked him tothis crosswalk where he would have to leave after. I don't know why but we were right in the middle of the crosswalk and he hugged me goodbye. Then we had our first kiss, but neither of us remember how it happened. lol We hungout more times and we couldn't last a day without seeing eachother. He asked me if I would get with him even though he is moving and I said yes because at the moment I didn't even think about that. At the end of August he moved and that first month or two of school I was depressed because he was no longer there. That school year I got to see him in October, December,March, and this last June/ July. It was really hard for me to get used to, and we've had some problems that made both of us cry. But we can say we're really strong because we've made it through a lot.Before that him, I never knew what it was like to miss someone that much. Even now that he is not here I miss him more than anything, but I know in December this will all be over and we can go back to normal again....I hope.

As far as music....

So music keeps me sane. I LOVE acoustic, I love the way it sounds and it makes me feel happy. :) My favorite band would probably be Daphne Loves Derby. Although Im in love with acoustic, I still like all kinds of music. Usually, if it has meaning, and a nice voice I'll like it. I Do not like rap, hip-hop or any of that. But besides that I'm pretty open-minded.
Some bands im into
Daphne Loves Derby
The Scene Aesthetic
The Spill Canvas
The White Stripes
Chiodos
Owl City
Boys Like Girls (kinda)

Cleaning

  • Aug. 3rd, 2008 at 6:00 PM

Today my whole family cleaned the house. My sister and I got rid of the clothes we didn't want and I swear there was like a hundred! lol We also had to clean our two little brother's room. It was so hot!! This weather makes me want to jump in an ice cold Pool!. I'm just laying here and there is sweat dripping down my neck. It sucks because we don't have central air conditioning and my grandpa always wants to conserve power and doesn't let us turn on the air till night. So I'm stuck here with my fan blowing hot air on me. At least I feel accomplished because the house is clean. :)  I really want to go to the beach; Im going to ask if i could go this week. Also, were going to medieviel times; I've never been there but I heard its cool. I also hope we go to Sea World....before the vacations over; I haven't been there in a while.  I need to get out! so far this summer I've only been to six flags when my boyfriend came to visit for a month. Then we went to a dodgers game and of course they lost. And suprisingly I only went to the beach once and I don"t live far from it. Its all because I had summer school =/. But hopefully fun stuff starts happening :).

GoodMorning!! :)

  • Aug. 3rd, 2008 at 10:47 AM

Sunday...Probably not going to be interesting. I used to go to church on Sundays, but I don't go anymore, because I'm not forced to. Church isn't really my thing. I don't even know if Im Catholic or Christian(protestant).Anyways,last night was horrible because I was waiting for my boyfriend to call. He called while I was sleeping lol. But we had a Hilarious conversation!! And I realized that it is August, lol. Only 24 days left till school starts! Im so excited to be a Junior because sophomore year sucked!  

Today...

  • Aug. 2nd, 2008 at 9:14 PM

 Was boring =/. Someone cheer me up?

Old cupcakes =/

  • Aug. 2nd, 2008 at 1:56 PM

So I looked through my backpack and found some old writing of mine.

Our first Kiss
"The bushes are my friends." I walked towards the half beaat up bushes that divided the small street from the main street. "Nope, they're not!" He said as he grabbed my hand back towards him. My heart rushed; we both secretly knew we wanted to hold hands, but shyness threw our hands apart again. I wanted him to grab my hand again, so I would go farther away, so he could pull me closer. The street came to a small crosswalk and we both stopped and stood right in the center of it. "Well, I guess I'll see you later." He gave me a hug goodbye. I closed my eyes and when I opened them again I was surpised to still be in his arms. I must have blanked out because that next moment his lips were on mine, and I never wanted it to end.

hehe i loved that day

  • Aug. 2nd, 2008 at 10:39 AM

Just woke up. Stood up late on the phone with my bofriend like always. We had a pretty interesting conversation last night. He doesn't like traveling as much as I do. I've never traveled before and I told him I wanted to go all over Europe and to Japan. He wasn't really interested in visiting places. Although he does want to go to New York and Tokyo. Hopefully we can go when we're older. :)

Its Alright...
