Week 1a What a Fright

The scariest experience of my life was actually neither a fun scary or a scary scary. It was more along the lines of a mysterious scary. This event was staying the night at my cousins house that was haunted. Even though there was a ghost there, it really wasn't that spooky. A psychic had already been to the house and declared that the ghost was not there to harm us. She had been killed by her brutal husband who lived in the other part of the duplex. I remember my cousin telling me that when the psychic walked into the other part of he duplex he felt a sharp pain in his ribs. When he looked over, he saw a guy punching him in the ribs according to my cousin. He couldn't come into my cousins house though so it really wasn't too bad. It was weird staying in the house though. I remember being in my cousins room watching TV when all of a sudden it just shut off. I was only about 9 or 10 at the time so at first it was kind of creepy. When I thought about it though, I realized that if it was in fact the ghost, then she might have been acting as a motherly figure and might have been trying to tell us to go to bed by shutting the TV off.

week 8 gothic garb

I have had many memorable Halloweens. Over the years I have had many different costumes. I remember being Harry Potter one year, Spiderman another year and my last year of trick-or-treating I just dressed up as a balla' because I was too old for a costume. My most memorable Halloween however was last years. I was just going outside to go find my friends and create havoc on the town when I noticed someone sneaking along the bushes in my front yard. I recognized the huge silhouette as my friend Aron. I darted back inside the house and grabbed my airsoft gun. When my mom asked me what I was doing I simply said "homo hunting." After a short game of cat and mouse i returned my airsoft gun and walked outside. As we started walking out of the yard however my mom came out of the house and proceeded to shoot at us with the airsoft gun. We all ran back to Arons house and grabbed some toilet paper. We the T.P.'d Arons aunt and uncles house, then proceeded on to my house. as we were T.P.ing however, my mom came back outside and started throwing eggs at us. One of the flying projectiles hit Aron on the arm and then hit the ground and didn't break. He then snuck around behind my mom and busted the egg on the ground behind her. The next day when I went over to Arons house he showed me a huge bruise on his arm from where the egg had hit him. We have an even bigger prank planned for my mom this year though. I told her to remember that payback is a well, you know what I mean.

week 7 Grizzly Me

If I could choose to go anywhere in the world that was a quiet part of nature, I would choose to go somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. This would allow me to learn about different plant and animal species that live their lives up there. I expect to find more animal life than plant life in the mountains. I chose this place because it is peaceful. There would not be many things there that would disturb me. Some of the hardships that I would probably face would be the lack of food and the water would be scarce. I would not really have any philosophies that I would expect to change.

week 6 offend nobody

I don't agree with censorship. I think that it's the parents responsibility to censor things for their kids. I don't really think that it's fair for some kids who are mature enough to handle uncensored content to have to put up with censored material. For example, why should kids have to listen to censored music on the radio? Kids don't listen to music to hear half of the song. If you want to buy a CD and the only place that has it in stock only carries edited music, then they only have half of a CD. Edited music basically cuts out half of the song on every song with censored material. That is why I disagree with censorship.
