Love is easy to say
But not all that easy to show
It seems as though we always hurt the ones we love the most
We can't always make everyone happy
But we must always keep the ones we love close to are hearts
We may say it
We may mean it
But there is no easy way to say I Love You with out saying it

My Personal Metaphor
Authors note~ metaphor poem about me.
I am a friend that will be there for you when you fall.
I am a bird souring high through the sky.
I am a star shining bright making the night time sky light up.
I am a dancer moving to the beat of my heart.

Perfect
Have you ever heard of Bulimia? Do you actually have an understanding of what it is? Well in the book Perfect by Natasha Friend Isabelle has Bulimia. Isabelle is the main character in the book she is 13 years old. Her and her family are trying to get over there grief of her fathers death. Isabelle sadly turned to food. And now she has a eating disorder called Bulimia.
Although people with Bulimia try to keep it a secret Isabelle had gotten caught by her medaling little sister, who ratted her out to her mother. From then on out Isabelle made a "deal" with her mom and was forced to go to group, Once a week she was stuck in a " Eating Disorder and Body Image Therapy Group." I don’t disagree with her mother in the aspect of making her daughter go to group. I mean if I found out that my daughter was forcing her self to trough up I would of done the same, she obviously needs help. I also understand that Isabella is depressed because of her fathers passing, and she doesn't feel like she can talk about it with anyone but I really think that her mother should try to help her through it and not force her into group right away I think just have a talk with her and if she doesn't stop then go t a second solution such as group
Some people think that Bulimia is kind of like Anorexia but it isn't they are both eating disorder but they are completely different. For example one who maybe Anorexic doesn't eat all they completely starve themselves. While Bulimic people eat a lot. They eat almost everything in sight but after words they wood make themselves either through up or they would use Ex Lax to flush out there system. Most people with Bulimia try to keep it a secret because it is not something to be proud of. They just do it because all they want to do is eat but they no if they eat t much they get fat so then all they do is through it up so they don’t have to gain that extra weight.
It is quiet sad to know that so many girls my age are Bulimic. I would never think of doing that to my self but I guess you cant help it sometimes. It is interesting that the girls in the book that were Bulimic the problem had to do with family in a sense. I am glad that there are ways these girls /guys can get help it is just a sad thing to her about. I mean if you had a friend that you knew was Bulimic you would one be really grossed out and two you would be really worried and try to help them out. And just that might help just be there try to help them through it that’s all Isabelle needed and she go it through group. She was able to talk about her feelings and end up stop throwing up.

Childhood Memory
I remember when I was younger my dad had this one car. (i don't remember the kind) It was red. I was always bugging him to let me sit in the front seat. So the one time he let me we got in a car accident. Nothing two severe but it was still scary.I was not in a car seat either I just had a seat belt. From this experience i have learned that sitting in the front seat when you are around 2 years old is not the brightest idea. So now that when I am older I will never let my child sit in the front seat until they are older. I will also make sure that they are in a boaster seat.
I am not quite sure exactly why I still remember this event but I do. I don't really remember that much. I remember bits and pieces. Like I remember that my dad rear ended somebody. After that all I remember was my stomach hurt really bad like a boxer punched me with all there force. Then the police where there and i got a stuffed animal.( A koala bear) Then my uncle drove me home with all my cousins. That's all I remember. But thanks two my dad i have learned a few things. Such as don't rear end someone, also don't let your two year old daughter sit in the front seat, and keep your child in a boaster seat. Also where your seat belt. tisk tisk Dad.

Shoes
There are many different kind of shoes. My favorite shoes are Osiris. They are skate shoes. I like them because they are very colorful ad I like the style. One store you can buy them from is Journeys. Journeys is a pretty cool shoe store. They have all the new sickest shoes. I really like buying my shoes from there. All though I love going to Journeys I like going to Women's Footlocker and looking at some Nikes . I love the cool Air 2.0 Nikes. Use to have a pair of lime green Air 2.0s, they were so beats but than I lost one of them. Just one. I bought them when I went to Mall Of America the summer of 5th grade. I think I most of lost it when I changed for one of my cheerleading practices. But ever since then I never saw it again. I still have the other one though. I really want to get a new pair of Nike's but my mommy wont let me because I'm not "responsible". But now I have a pair of Osirs' and I'm happy.

Kitty
Hello my name is Billy-bob Joe-bob III and this is my pet penguin named Kitty. Kitty is an exotic blue penguin. She is the only blue penguin in the world except for her mom, dad, 5 sisters and 16 brothers. Her family was split up at birth and they live in all different parts of the world. You are one of the most luckiest people in the world if one of these penguins have choose to be your pet. I happen to be one of those lucky ones. Not only are these creatures super cool looking they have super powers. They can talk! And they can fly. It is so cool to have a pet you can actually talk to.(: I really like having kitty as a bet she is so fun. All though I am one of the lucky chosen ones Kitty has to stay in hiding because there are a lot of different exotic animals that are trying to kill her and her family . Such as the Chipacabra. The Chipacabra has been hunting down these Blu Penguins for a while now. So as a owner I have to protect her from all harm. I have Chipacabra traps set up all over my backyard. Also we have to keep the Blu Penguins hidden from humans because if they were to find out they might start hunting them down and try to kill them. And every year once a year we all come together and have a huge dinner and eat together all the owners and penguins. It's cool to see who the penguins decided to be there protectors. The age range is unbelievable it ranges from 4 years old to 87 years old. Okay well im going to have to go now I just caught another Chipacabra see ya later.

"The Third Wish" Essay Responce
Imagine if you could have three wishes. What would you wish for? In the short story "The Third Wish" by Joan Aiken, Mr. Peters the main character in this story helps untangle a swan from a bush. And carries it and sets it back into the canal. No big deal right. Then all the sudden the swan turns into a king and gives Mr. Peters three wishes as an award for helping him. He gave him three leaves to represent his wishes. Mr. Peters didn't really need to use his wishes but he decided using one and it ended up being two. Mr. Peters didn't want to use his last wish probably because he didn't need to and he was trying to show the king that he wasn't greedy
Mr. Peters used his one wish right away. He was happy with his wish for the longest time but than he felt as if his wish wasn't very happy anymore and he was questioning if he should use his second wish to make her happy again. As I see it he should use the second wish on her. His first wish was a wife as beautiful as the forest and that’s what he got. When he said that my first thought was that the king was going to try to trick Mr. Peters and give him a wife that looks like a tree or a bush. But he got a very beautiful wife. But over time she started to seem sad and Mr. Peters couldn't figure out why she was so unhappy. Shortly he found out why she was so sad. He felt bad and he wanted to use his second wish to make her happy but she refused to let him to do that. Probably because she was trying to be strong.
All though she was trying to show that she could be strong, MR. Peters new how sad she was, and against her wishes he used one of his wishes and he turned her back into a swan. She felt bad that he used the wish on her. It was obvious they where still both happy. Even though she was no longer human she would still swim up the river with her sister just to see him. They still had a strong relationship. Mr. Peters still had a strong passion for her and he still loved her.
Mr. Peters wasn't going to use up his last wish on a new wife because he still had Letia and he could never do that to her. I thought that was such a great thing for him to do. I mean he could easily wished up a new wife but he didn't because he loves Letia.
Mr. Peters didn't even use his last wish. He said that two wishes where enough for him . His life was already good he had a little taste of the magic and it brought happiness in his life but also it took it away and he didn't want to seem greedy. Legend says that he died in his sleep with the leave of the last wish and a swans feather in hand.
