This vacation was unlike any other! I remember it like it was yesterday.
I was on a cruise for my first time. I don't normally like being on the ocean but a cruise....well that's different.
It's like a city on water. There's people everywhere and I mean everywhere. You can shop, eat, tan, dance, play games, you name it. Doesn't sound like being on water now...does it?
The cruise was a week long, but it the days seemed like hours to me. Too short.
There were so many different fun things I did there, such as swimming in a pool with my family. I know.... swimming in a pool on the a boat! Such blast. That vacation was full of Great memories that will last forever!

Real or Fake....YOU decide
It was one of the most exilerating moments of my life! Never had I done something that gave me such a thrill....I felt like I was flying!! Normally I don't have the courage to do such a thing, because these types of things.....flat out scare me.
Waiting in line, I believe, made me more nervous. Thinking about whether I should go through with it not. The constant..."What if" questions running through my brain.
My friends being there definitely helped. I don't think I would have gone on "It" if they weren't there. I actually chickened out earlier and once it was my turn I had turned it down.
Once I got to the top, my friends trying to convince me to go on....I knew there was no turing back. This was it....the "One."
Riding "this" Rollercoster was one of the greatest thrills in my life. I don't normally go on big rollercoasters because they scare me. It was a Great Memory. This rollercoaster made me feel like I could fly. The Raptor.

Good Writing
After Reading Stephen King's memoir, I learned many of his insights about good writing vs. bad writing.
I think his idea of the first thing you have to master is the fundemantals such as grammar, vocab., and the styles of writing is very true.
If King didn't have the correct word useage and grammar then I wouldn't want to read his work because it would be sloppy and unorganized.
Many times Writer's know what they're saying but.....if they're using bad grammer and the wrong word usage than what the writer is trying to get across won't be as effective to the audience.
Readers don't like seeing the same words being repeated in what YOU have written. Stephen King wrote about a book he read where the author kept using the word "Zestful" as many times as he could in his book. King hated the book and he learned many lessons on how NOT to write from reading it...not to mention King said will never use the word zest in any book.
The only way that YOU are going to become a better writer is to write and read A LOT!!

Persona
It’s such a beautiful day out today! I couldn’t have imagined a more splendor day.
This warm breeze feels so good on me, much better than the air last night, which was cold and brisk. I was on the green side it seemed not that long ago but now I am quite colorful.
I just love my colors; something about them just brightens my day. I love that I’m red, orange, and brown. All these colors just make me so happy. I hate it when my colors go away from me. Then it’s just so cold that I don’t have any colors on me anymore.
A bird was singing today. She actually landed on me and gave such a beautiful song. I saw two squirrels chasing each other day. One actually hid behind me...but that didn’t work out too well, the other squirrel almost immediately found the other squirrel.
I feel like my spirit has been lifted because the sun is shinning brighter than ever on me.

SuperPower
If I could have any one superpower it would be to Fly. I think it would be so incredibly awesome to be able to fly high above, soaring through the clouds. I couldn't imagine what that would feel like. I went on the Raptor at Ceder Point for my first time ever this year. I'm normally scared of roller costers but I made myself have the courage to go on it and this ride....I think it resembles would it would be like to fly. It's hard to describe but I've never felt such a thrill in my life before. To be able to Fly....Gosh I wish I could try.

Things I love
Music is one of my biggest passions, I love it so much. I absolutly love to sing, I don't think I could describe in words how it makes me feel. Rock climbing is just so much fun. I love to laugh, it makes me feel great and I also love to make people laugh. I love writing, it's always been a passion of mine. Dancing in the rain, it makes me feel free and like a little kid again. Those are just a few of the things that I LOVE.
