Inverse Christmas List.

Here is my "inverse Christmas list"
A list of everything that I would LOVE to get for my friends, and family... if I could get them anything I wanted.

Dad - A membership to the Masters Course.
Mom - Peace. haha.
Emily - A Julliard Scholarship.
Caity - A "Vans" Factory!
Chandler - A Library. hahahh.
Josh - A computer that let you make any kind of shirt you would ever want, and it had an endless supply of shirts... so you could make a new one every day! hahaha.
Samantha, Carley, Mandy, Haley - Alpine. Villages. hahaha.
Whit, Emily, Maiah, Monica - an un-dying knowledge of the Spanish language.


Now it's your turn...
I tag... Caity, Aubrey, Erin, Chandler, Krista, and Brooke. :))

I went broke believing, that the simple should be hard...

Dare To Dream

Let nothing hold you back from
exploring your wildest fantasies,
wishes, and aspirations.
Don't be afraid to dream big
and to follow your dreams
wherever they may lead you.
Open your eyes to their beauty;
open your mind to their magic;
open your heart to their possibilities.

Dare to dream.
Whether they are in color
or in black and white,
whether they are big or small,
easily attainable or almost impossible,
look to your dreams,
and make them become reality.
Wishes and hopes are nothing
until you take the first step
towards making them something!

Dare to dream,
Because only by dreaming,
will you ever discover
who you are, what you want,
and what you can do.
Don't be afraid to take risks,
to become involved,
to make commitment.
Do whatever it takes to make
your dreams come true.
Always believe in miracles,
and always believe in you!

~ Julie Anne Ford ~

I love this Poem.
I love the Song "All we are" by Matt Nathanson.
I love life.

It's Christmas time! I am so exciteddd for the holidays! I am MAKING my friends partake in my favorite holiday passtimes... baking cookies, sledding, ice skating, caroling, secret santa... EVERYTHINGGG! So be stoked, because you have to do it anyways. haha. I am finally just about caught up on Homework, and it feels SO good! I can go to sleep at 10:00 without having to worry about all of the homework that I didn't do! hah. Such a great feeling. I hope it snows! I don't even care about a "Snow day" I just want it to snow... things seem so much more magical when the world is white.

I'm just now realizing, that I need to dream now! Because... later, is when I'm supposed to make my dreams happen. I'm so worried... about everything. I'm a huge worrier. I need to go with the flow, but be responsible at the same time. Junior year has been such a great, uplifting, changing year of my life. I'm so grateful for the friends that I've made, the memories we've shared, and the many times to come.

Only a few more days until the quarter ends! Only a few more days than that, until Christmas! And only a few more days from Christmas... is the New year! Oh good golly gosh! It's so close! 2010 has gone by so fast! I don't know if I'm ready for the new year! I... always get so sad, on my Birthday, and New Years Eve, because... it's an ending to a Chronological chapter of my life! ... but my storybook is just beginning... I have lots more to write. And I can't wait to write chapter 2011. :))

"In the end, the words won't matter. In the end, nothing stays the same. In the end, dreams just scatter, and fall, like rain."

7 reason's to hate DBQ's...

1. No one ever wants to write them.
2. 5 words, Thus one can see that...
3. I don't even understand the documents!
4. Outside information? NO!
5. Economic, Social, Political.
6. Assess the validity? Don't wanna..
7. [Document D]

Hi. My name is Nicole, and I hate Document Based Question's.
For A.P.U.S.H. we have to write these stupid papers called "Document Based Question's" I hate them with a passion. actually... I'm writing this post, instead of writing one right now. hahah. So what you're supposed to do, is take... about 10 documents that you are given, and turn them into an essay. But you can't directly use the documents. Noooooo why would you do that? I mean... Document Based... isn't in the title or anything! You have to base your paper from outside information... I hate D.B.Q.'s. They are another Truck in my life.
Kbye.

Quote of the Moment.

New Post! New Post! New Post!

Alright world... I've come up with a new Weekly post that I can do!
QUOTE OF THE MOMENT!
Hollllls! :)))

Here's how it'll work...
Every time I hear, make up, see, ask for,
an amazing quote, I'll blog it!

P.s. I don't like "Quote of the Month" "Quote of the Week" "Quote of the Day" because ... they give me limitations. hahah. So moment... gives me so much more opportunity:))

Presidentially Pardoned Turkey....

Today I learned of one of the funniest traditions of our country... EVER! bahahah. Apparently... every single year the President of the United States is given a live Turkey... He could do anything with it. hmm... What would you do if someone gave you a turkey? I can think of a few shenanigans I could pull... muahah. No... he doesn't even... put the Turkey in the bathtub... or stick it in someone's closet... instead, he PARDONS THE TURKEY! bahah. YEAH! oh my word... just like you would pardon someone from jail. They give a Presidential Pardon to the Turkey... and they send it to some Animal Shelter or something.

I uploaded a couple of photo's of our "Presidentially Pardoned Birds" from past, and present. the Black and White photograph is President Truman with his Turkey... and the bottom is... well Obama this year I'm assuming... hahaha. I bet you that they go to the store, and buy another Turkey... awesome Presidents. You may have saved the life of one bird... but you are going to eat another! We know you're not vegetarians!
Welp... hope you enjoyed my Thanksgiving post!
Adios Amigos!

Find the Quadrilateral of the Tetra-whaaa?

Oh my frustration.
AAAAHHH!
Chemistry + Pre-Calc = the Trucks in my life.
They are RUNNING ME OVER!

I don't understand anything in Pre-Calc... And I don't think I'm going to begin to understand anything. It's so confusing, and I have no idea what is going on. I get in trouble SO much in that class, because I have so many friends. My teacher Isolated me clear on the other side of the room from my little social group... I don't enjoy this at all. Now I don't understand anything... AND I have no one to talk to. Awess.

Chemistry is not as bad as Pre-Calc. But... It's not as good as Orchestra. But nothing is. hah. Chem is difficult because it involves math.. I remember back in the day, I used to be GOOD at Math... HAH! So not true anymore. Sooooooooooo not true.

Life 6 - She got Shot twice by a Pellet Gun... Once in the Stomach, once in the knee.

Roads, Pathways, and Boardwalks.

"Once for Family Home Evening my family went out Four-Wheeling. It was our favorite thing to do when we were gathered all together. We had fun every single time. This particular time, we decided to go out at night time. It was very dark, but I thought I knew the trails that we took every single time well enough to go out on my own. I hopped on the Bike, and started off down a trail that I had been down millions of times before. I went about half way down, when I had the prompting to stop. I pulled on the break-handle, and came to an abrupt halt. I turned around, and began to go back. I started down the trail, but I got too far. I couldn't find the turnoff that I needed to take to get back to my family. I was lost. I hadn't a clue in my mind of what to do. I prayed. After praying, I did not wait. I turned the Quad around, and started back up the way I went, I decided that this was not a good idea, so I turned around once again, and kept down the trail. I started my way around a small hill, when I saw them. I saw the lights of my family's vehicle. A little shook up, I got back to my family. Heavenly Father answers every prayer, no matter how insignificant we think they are. Anything that means something to us, means something to him. Later, on our drive home, my father made one of the wisest comments that I have ever heard, ' There are a lot of roads out there in the night time. The good thing about it is that they all come back together. If you just keep following, you'll get back to the main road.'"

... A loser can win... because CIWWAF said so.

Having fun is something that I am very good at lately.
Doing homework is something that I have recently declined in faithfulness with... mehh.

Maybe sometimes we get in fights, we get jealous, or we just get annoyed!
But in the end, we can count on each other for anything:))
I love my school.
I don't care what you say. You're wrong. Your school is NOT better than mine.
