If there is one person who I could meet dead or alive, it would be one of my favorite country music singers. The only kind of music I listen to is country. So, my one of my favorite artists is Taylor Swift. A few years ago, I went to see Taylor Swift in concert with one of my best friends. This was one of the best nights I have ever had.
One of the reasons that Taylor Swift is one of my favorite country artists is because I believe that she is a very inspirational person. I love the music she writes and I think that she has some very catchy music. From what I know about Taylor Swift, is it seems like she has been through a lot during her lifetime. One thing I have learned from her, is that through any hard or tough time you are having, if you have the right friends there for you, you can get through anything. I think that this is so true, too. Taylor Swift is young and when she was around thirteen she never thought that she was going to make her dream of becoming a singer come true. But, from where she is now; the huge message that everyone can learn is to never stop dreaming about what you want to do in life.
Taylor Swift has written many songs and she has earned so many award for all of her accomplishments. To repeat again, but I strongly believe that this is true: If you follow your dreams they will come true...eventually. There are many instances in the world with other people that this has happened to. Even if your dream is small or large, it will come true someday--even if only in your sleep!
Therefore, the person who I wish I could meet-alive-is Taylor Swift. I wish to meet her because I believe that she is a very inspirational country music writer. She is also one of my favorites.

If I were President......
If I was President of the United States and I could change something I
would change the alchol rule. I don't know the exact law on this, but
I do know that it is illegal for anyone under the age of twenty one to
buy, sell, or have possesion of alcohol.
The parts that I would change on this law is that if you are going to
a public place-a bar service-for example, it would be illegal for a
person to walk out of the doors of the bar drunk. This would
eliminate the cause of death by drunk driving or the death of others
by drunk driving.
Another part of this law that I would want to change is the times that
bars close. I know that recently, there was a change in the laws that
bars were able to stay open until two a.m. When I found out about
this I did not think it was right. Ater all, who needs to be out at
two in the morning?? You should be sleeping at that time! The change
I would make in this law would be that bars should close at a sooner
time, but if they are to close at that late at night, the bars need to
stop selling alcholic beverages at around eleven thirty. I think that
even eleven thirty is a little bit late to be out at.
To finalize, I don't think that bars should be open as late during the
night and I also don't think that people need to be driving around
town at two in the morning. To repeat, I don't know much about laws,
and I'm not certain about the law pertaining to this topic. But, I
just strongly dislike hearing stories all the time on the news about
accidents that relate to alcohol, and drunk-driving, that could easily
be eliminated.

A Movie Character I am most like..
One of my favorite movies is The Note. Not very many people I know have heard about this movie. It is about a reporter who finds a note that washed up to shore after a plane crash. On the note, it said something along the lines of:
T.-
All is Forgiven.
Love, Dad
So the reporter, who writes a column called the "Heart Healer" decides to go on a hunt and find out who this note belongs to.
On the reporter's adventure, she doesn't find anyone with a name that starts with T whose father was on the plane that crashed. Suddenly, she meets up with a young lady who believes that the note belongs to her. Although, her name did not start with "T"; the nickname her dad called her was Tag or Tag-a-long.
I think I am most like the girl who the note belonged to not because of the people that were or were not in her life. I think I am most like her because of her great respect for others and for how caring she was towards everyone/everything. I would consider myself caring and I really do care about other people. This is an important part in my life.
To repeat, I believe that I am most like the young lady who the note belongs to. She lives a good and solid life. She also has some qualities that I see in myself. Many of these similar qualities I see in her and in me are ones that I think are important in every person. One of my favorite movies is The Note, so this is the reason that I chose the owner of the note as the character I am most like.

My Hero..
It seems like it took me a while to figure out who my hero is. It just came to me as I was walking up the stairs to start my other homework. Once it came to me I felt like wow, that was really obvious. Right now, I'm sure you're thinking, just tell me who it is already! I know that's probably what I would be thinking. Well, I'm going to make you wait just a few more minutes...
First, I'm going to describe my hero, towards the middle I will reveal who my hero actually is. My hero is someone who I see every day and talk to almost everyday. She is one of the nicest people I know even though we both have our arguments. My hero is someone who is extremely caring, compassionate, loving, and funny. I have spent so much time with her in the past year, more than usual. Even though she isn't the best at giving advice yet in life we both talk out our problems to each other. We share many memories and have done so many things together. I am going to assume that once I tell who my hero is you are going to be very supprised. I remeber all the times we have hated each other, all the times we have helped each other, and all the fun times we have had with each other. Honestly, I don't think I would be able to survive if I didn't know my hero, and I know that is saying alot but it is very true.
Here it goes...my hero is my younger sister, Megan. This is so true, but I also think that many people would be suprised. Even though Megan is younger than me she is a great person to talk to and to have fun with. Although one down side of her being younger is she can't give the best advice no matter how hard she tries, but this is only because she is three years younger than me, and has not expeirenced what high school is like. She has helped me through some of my problems and believe me, I have helped her through many of her problems. Over the summer (last year) Megan and I grew very close in our relationship. We got the house to ourselves every morning until about noon. There is so much that you can do in just one morning. I don't even know how to explain all the fun things that happened that summer with her. All I know is that so far, last summer has been one of the best summers I have had.
Even though my hero isn't my best friend, a team mate, my mom, or my dad. My hero is my sister, one of the most important people in my life. My sister is someone who I can tell ANYTHING to. Megan is one of the most special people in my life and I Love her so much!

My $1,000,000 Job...
If I could do anything and be paid $1,000,000 a year for it I would want to be a teacher. Ever since I was young, I have always wanted to be a teacher. The idea of working with kids and teaching them sounds like fun to me. Whenever I was bored, my sister and I would always go into our basement and we would play school. Most of the time I would play the role of the teacher and Megan would play the role of the student. Sometimes Megan was the teacher and I was the student, I hated playing it this way so much! Although, most of the time when we played school I would be the teacher and Megan would be what we called the "helper" teacher.
When I was in eighth grade, Matt, my brother told me about a club at Roncalli-FEA-Future Educators of America. He told me about what they did and I was really excited about it. This year, I joined FEA. My favorite part about this club, is every few months you get to go to Pinewood, an elementary school, to help out the teachers and sometimes you get a chance to interact with the students.
My Mom used to be a teacher, because of this she had so many posters, activity books, worksheets, ect. left over. I thought that all of this stuff was the coolest thing in the world. For Christmas one year, I got a gradebook. I made up a class list and would use my mom's leftover worksheets and activity books to make assignments and tests. Then, I would 'grade' all of these assignments and tests and put the grades into the grade book I had. At school, sometimes at the end of the year the teachers would sell old books for 25 cents, whenever the teachers sold these books I always had to get one or two of them. After I had gotten these books I would make up my own notes, worksheets, and tests based off of the chapters in these books. I always had so much fun doing this!
In conclusion, if I could do anything for $1,000,000 I would be a teacher. This has been my dream ever since I can remeber.

My Birthday Month: July
My birthday is in July. There is one major holiday in July. This is Independence Day or also known as the Forth of July. July is the national month for a lot of things. Some of these include: National Blueberry month, National Anti-boredom month, National Unlucky month for weddings, National Cell Phone courtesy month, National Hot dog month, and National Ice Cream month. On my birthday, the 'national holiday' is Tapioca Pudding Day and Cow Appreciation Day (go out and give a cow a hug).
There were two number one songs on my birthday. These were: How do you want it and California love. The Ruby is the gem for July. The flower for July is the water lily. In July, Idaho became the 43rd state. My zodiac sign is cancer. July is also the national month for Baked Beans, Hitchhiking, and Read an Almanac.
July is also neighborhood/stranger awareness day. Many neighborhoods during this month have different social activities sometime during this month. July is one of the summer months that most everyone enjoys. School is out and you usually don't have anywhere or anything important to do. On my birthday, it is also national Gummy worm Day.

Summer = My FAVORITE Season!
My favorite season is summer. I love summer because there is a nice and long break from school during these months. I also love summer because my birthday is in the summer. I really enjoy the warm weather and all of the fun things you can do from June to August.
Some of my favorite things to do in the summer are: going to the zoo, hanging out with my cousins and friends, swimming. I also like to play tennis and basketball with my brother and sister. Another reason I love summer so much is because you can sleep in late almost every day.
Sometimes you can have boring days in the summer, but it's not very hard to find something to do, considering the weather isn't cold. During the summer is also a great time to get alot of reading done. You don't have to worry about other homework or finishing a book in time to make a deadline.
I think summer could be known as a worry-free season, for the most part. I believe this because you really don't have to do anything for school that you could get 'bad' grades on. Another reason that summer is my favorite month is because my birthday is in the summer! I love having a summer birthday because you don't have school and you can have the whole day!
These are just a few reasons of why I love summer!
