 There are many things I would do with 10 extra copies of myself. At first I would play a game of volleyball with myself except I would have five on five instead of six. Then I would want to go sky diving out of a plane at its highest point, but of course live. My clone would also build me an indoor volleyball court that I have always wanted. I would never do this because one I am too lazy and too broke. I would also make my clones go to all of my classes for me so I don't have to. Each one could go to a different class. After that I would them come home and have dinner and my bed ready for me to come lay down to be lazy. When it starts to get to be night time I would make all of my clones sneak in to the play boy bunny house. I have always wanted to get in, but I know for a fact they wouldn't let me unless I snuck in. I think having 10 extra copies of me would be a huge advantage on my behalf.

Is It Worth It?

Is it worth it?
Putting a life on the line?
Is it worth it?
You're only setting up yourself to get a fine.
It can wait.
The text is not going anywhere.
It's okay if you are a little late.
Oh well if it's important.
Like a bear, you better keep facing front.
Is it worth it?
Putting your life on the line?
Is it worth it?
All the fallen from this, isn't that a sign?
I promise you it can wait.
It's not really that important.
Who cares if you're late for your date.
Pull over to the side if you want to read.
In order to save many, this is a good dead.
Is it worth it?
You will have nothing to gain.
Is it worth it?
Putting their families through so much pain.
It can wait.
Pay attention to the road.
If you don't, you might feel nothing but hate.
It is not worth it.
All you have to do is wait.

If I had to design a perfect get away island just for my self that would be pretty cool. First I would make sure the whole island is covered in sand and a few trees. The trees would be outside of my huge get away mansion that is partially the whole island. On the beach I would have a couple of volleyball nets that take all the craziness away. I would of course have some animals on my island, but they wouldn't be wild ones. They would have to be trained in order to come on my island. The trees that surround my house would be coconut trees and pineapple plants. Giraffes would have their own little area to walk around because I really do love giraffes. The island would also be very warm because it will be right near the equator. As you can see this would be the perfect island for me.

 I'm one hundred percent against the new rule. There are many reasons why I am against this rule. The main reason is because this is a safety hazard. Our teachers stress that this is a public campus and anyone is allowed on it. Since it is such a public place you don't know who is going to come on it, which is why we need our phone in case of emergency. Also, the only time students really study is technically in school, such as on Quizlet or even to just check angel. I believe that we should be able to keep our phones in our pockets if we are not on it. We should also be allowed to have our phones in study hall also because listening to music helps me do my work and I need my phone to look up things that I don't know. Finally, I believe that just because one person got in trouble that not all of us should get it taken out on. The student that did it should of got punished and that would be the end of that.

 As I opened my eyes, I suddendly got freightened. I noticed I was surrounded in water. The crazy thing is, I don't know exactly how I was breathing, but I was. I peer around the dark place with a lot of trees. I am so scared. Where am I? Next thing I notice is a big black glob in a far distance. Maybe it's a person! I start to believe that this might be true, so I start screaming! Nothing comes out of course because I am under water. I start to swim towards the glob when all of sudden I realize this is no person. This glob is in fact not a glob nor a person, but a giant fish. I again start to try to scream but nothing comes out. Only this time, this fish must've heard something because it turned around so quick and started charging toward me. Somehow I ran faster than the fish and his behind anything I could find. While I started to run again I tripped over a stick and cut my leg open! It hurt so bad I couldn't get up. When I looked up from my leg I saw the fish right before my eyes. It opened its mouth and rushed toward me.. I then opened my eyes. Thank god it was just a dream

 There are many people and items that are very comforting to me. The main thing that is comforting is of course volleyball. When I'm in a bad situation or a bad mood all I have to do is play a little volleyball and I'll be fine! Another thing that is my comforter is my best friend Norae. She's always here for me like the one time I was nervous for our history test. She gave me a long speech about how I will do great I just need to stop thinking about it so much. I felt so much better going in to the test because of her. Food is also a comfort. I mean, who doesn't love food? When you're sad or mad all you have to do is eat some of your favorite foods and you're instantly happy. It just makes me feel good to eat something delicious. It has never failed me. Last, but certainly not least, music is a big comforter. It helps me take my mind off of everyone and everything. Music also makes me focus much more when I'm listening to it. What would I do with out these things? I don't want to ever know.

my name

 Sarah is what I'm named.
 I often feel ashamed.
 Though it means I'm a princess,
 it does not cope with my senses.
 Millions and I have this name.
 And its not that I don't like being the same,
 I just like to be unique
 like my sense of style, which happens to be chic.

 Alena falls in the middle
 although it may be little.
 I, like my name, stand tall and strong (personi.)
 since I've been hurt for so long.
 Uh-lean-uh, as it is pronounced.
 I'm not ashamed for this to be announced.
As the song "Lean on me when you're not strong,
 and I'll be your friend. I'll help you carry on."
 As Bill Withers would sing.
 I'm only a phone call away, so give me a ring.

 Last, but certainly not least.
 My last name is the final piece. (Metaphor)
 It has 10 unique letters
 that wrap around you like warm sweaters. (Simile)
 Leighliter is different 
 But yet I'm very content. 

Chickens, Horse, or Cow?

If I had to choose between a cow, a dozen chickens, and a horse 2000 years ago, I think I would choose 12 dozen chickens. One reason I would choose the dozen of chickens is because since you have so many of them you can breed them and make them have more. Also, they hatch eggs. Not only can you have chicken for dinner, you could have eggs also! Another reason that I would choose this is since 2000 years ago they used to sell their child's marriage to someone with chickens, I could get a husband. All I would have to do is give them 6 chickens. If I had the dozen of chickens I could also sell some of my chickens to get another animal to eat or other supplies. If I chose the cow it would not last very long. If I chose the horse, it would only help getting around because nobody really wants to eat a horse. The only bad reason about choosing the dozen of chickens is that in the middle of the night if you put male chickens together they might create a clamor and cock fights. Besides that negative fact, there are many reasons why I would choose the dozen chickens.

  There I was, happy as could be, hanging on the store's wall. Whenever someone walked through the doors we knew our fate was in their hands. Today, I had a strange feeling that it was my time to leave this wall. I didn't want to leave my home. I also didn't want to be hammered by little kids. I actually love my life and want to live. As the lady  was trudging through the halls towards a couple of my friends and I, I knew this was it. This was going to be my last day on this wall. The last time I'm going to see my friends. The last time im going to be happy. I wish I could grow legs and run away from this mess. The lady came to a stop and started to look around at all of us with a confused look. At first, she grabbed my friend, but she put him back because he was too small. She then grabbed me quickly off the wall and walked me to the cash register. I was so scared for my life that I fainted. When I woke up all I saw were kids running around screaming "Piñata time! Piñata time!"  The next thing I knew, I saw a bat come towards me and all I saw was a bright light and my life flash before my eyes..

    There are a lot of things that I will never do or do again in this world. One thing I would never do is go skydiving. The reason I would never do this is because I'm super scared of heights and I would be the person to freak out while falling and mess up when it's time to pull out my parachute. Amother thing, that involves heights, that I would never do is ride the dragster at Cedar Point. I am terribly afraid of heights and I am so scared that it will come backwards down. Plus, it's straight up and down and that is another fear of mine. When I play volleyball I will also never not wear ankle braces again when I'm playing in a game. The last time I did not wear ankle braces I sprained my ankle pretty badly. I was out for 6 weeks and I was was walking around in anguish. Since I sprained my ankle, during JO season, I never got to play at OVR's and I was pretty upset with that. As you can see there are many things that I would never do or never even think about doing again.

If I could have any three people to come over and have hot chocolate with it would be Michelle Obama, Jesus, and Justin Bieber. The reason I would coose Michelle Obama is because I would try to find out why she's making us eat nasty diet lunches and try to change it. Also, I would try to find out any information that could help our country out. I would want to also have Jesus at the table with us to have hot chocolate because I would like to actually find out what really happened with the creation of earth and his story of how he died. Finally, the reason I would want to invite Justin Bieber to be at this hot chocolate date is since he is my favorite artist, I would love to spend any time with him I could. We'd all have a really interesting political and life discussion. Michelle would get the best boss cup, Jesus would of course get the history buff cup, and Justin Bieber would get the king cup.

 Before I die, there are many things I want to accomplish. My number one thing I would like to do before I "kick the bucket" is to play on the Penn State volleyball court, or even better on the team. When I get older I plan on going to Penn State, but they are the number one ranked volleyball team and that is my goal in life, so I believe that this possibility is very likely. Another thing I would like to do before I die is to travel the world. I don't want to go to every state and/or country, but I would like to see most of it because there are amazing things in this world to descover and I want to see most of it. The chances of this are very likely because I believe I can do anything I put my mind to. The third thing I would like to accomplish before I die is to just hang out with a famous person for a whole day. I want to do this because I have never met a rich and famous person and I want to know what it's like to be with someone that doesn't have to worry about how much money they spend and actually get to see how they really act. The chances of this happening is probably a negative two, since you never see any famous person in Ohio just walking around. My fourth and final thing I would like to achieve before I die is to go to France and see the eiffle tower. I would like to go there because it's supposedly the most beautiful place in the world and I want to experience that. The chances of this are high because like I said, I want to travel the world.

If I had to pick one shirt to wear for the rest of my life..

 If I had to pick one shirt to wear for the rest of my life it would probably be my white jersey. There are many reasons why I would pick this shirt. One reason I would chose this shirt is since the color white makes me look dark, I frequently wear it. When I put on my jersey I feel like I have the fortitude to do anything since volleyball is such a tough sport. My jersey is my favorite thing to wear because it's not only comfy but it's the perfect size. Also, the color white goes with every color and every type of shoe. It's the perfect easy combo shirt. Another reason why I would choose this shirt is because it carries my second favorite number on it, the number 6. Personally, if I could change to a 5 that would be so much better. When I put on my jersey usually that means that it is game day. When game day comes I am always happy and elated to wear my jersey. My jersey is short sleeve so I won't be too cold or too hot. If I get too cold I can just throw on a simple jacket or two. The only thing I would dislike about wearing my jersey every day is that yes, it's easily stained and let's face it, I'm a pretty clumsy person. As you can see, there are many reasons why I chose this as not only my favorite shirt to wear, but a shirt that I would wear every day of my life.
