One of Those Days...

Have you ever had one of those days? You know the kind that are just wonderful no matter what! That is my day today. No matter if my little brother yells at me. My day just can't go wrong! I got to talk to my teacher Ms. Eddings. I e-mailed my friends from Entheos. And I've been listening to my music. You can't get any better than that.....

But wait it does!

My older brother and I are going to the temple today! You want to know why?..... Because it's friday and that is what we do on Fridays!

But wait there's more!

I don't have school today! And yesterday I learned that after one very hard week of very hard work! I have a 3.3GPA! instead of a 1.4! WOOT! GO ME!!!!!! :)

And yet again there is more!

I went through my portfolio and I had forgotten how much I love my Entheos! But I'm just so happy to be at high school!

YES there is more!

My best friend Katie Abbott and I texted eachother all morning! I love my best friend! As a friend you know!

MORE!!!!!!

It is pink and yellow friday! And I am wearing my "new" Sharpay skirt! That my mom so graciously bought for me last saterday! (THANKS MOM!!!)

It just can't get better than today!!!!
I love life! And I love the people in my life!

Thanks for being so Spectacular!!!!!!!

Love,
Da Bow Baby! :)

Grandpa A. and my History Project

It has been a while since I've bloged and I feel like I should. In my history class we are writing eight page research papers. FUN!

N-O-T!!!!!!

But lucky for me I have a wonderful grandpa who has helped me a ton. I'm writing about WWII. But I chose that subject because my great grandpa served in WWII and I thought that it would be cool to learn about what he did and what it was like durring the war. I have always been scared to ask great grandpa A. about the war stuff because if you ask my mom or my grandparents or my aunts or uncles... Talking about the war gives him nightmares. So my spectacular grandpa fish has most willingly given me all the info that he has gathered over the years from grandpa A.

It is all very interseting and I have loved the stories that grandpa fish has shared with me. I hope as I go futher in depth that I will learn more and be able to write this paper.

I have come to the conclusion that my grandpa A. is a hero. Not because he did some amazing things in the war and lived, but because he doesn't believe that he is a hero. He has taught me that sometimes when you don't feel like what you did matters to someone else it does. Because of what my grandpa A. did I want to be momre like him. He is my hero and I hope one day I will get up enough courage to tell him so.

I hope I can tell his stories well. I hope that when I write about him and the war as a whole I can do it with respect.

I'm so very greatful for my grandpa A. and for my grandpa fish who has so willingly shared grandpa A.'s stories with me. Thanks Grandpa! I love you lots and lots!
