Hello V.I.T.s, I saved my Letter from the Editor Edition for today because today we take time to reflect on what happened eight years ago. I remember where I was eight years ago when I learned about the Twin Towers going down in New York. I was sitting at my design table designing and listening to the news. I saw the 2nd airplance crash into the tower, I saw all the |

 Hey Everybody!
from [carrotspeak.]
I started Making a Difference Mondays as a way for me to use my once miniscule blogging voice to try and change the world one kind deed at a time. Each Monday, I'll post about something I've done to make someone's day a little bit better, and I invite you all to play along by doing the following:
- Make your own Making a Difference Monday post, explaining to your readers these rules, and sharing the story of some small act of kindness you've performed in the past week. It could be anything...holding a door, helping a little old lady cross the street, or even just stopping at a red light...
It is with one person and one action at a time that we change to world. Why not try to change it for the better?

 This week's book reminds me a lot of the book I gave a lot of love a while ago, Guitar Highway Rose. They both have an interesting variation of styles within the novel. Criss Cross is about several teens living in the small town of Seldem. Debbie wants something to happen to her, something good. Hector starts taking guitar lessons, and meets Meadow, an interesting and pretty girl with stars in her eyes. |

Hey Everyone!
I hope you're feeling happy & healthy!
Here a 10 tips to help you feel just that!
1. Start everyday with breakfast.
I know you hear it all the time but it's true -- nothing can help you better and improve your growth than eating a hearty and healthy breakfast. It's the most important meal of the day for a reason. A snack bar and a glass of juice on your way out to the bus will not cut it. Take the time to eat a bowl of cereal (the healthy kind -- not the ones filled with sugar), eat an orange (it's packed with Vitamin C) and a glass of water (good for your body and your skin!).

 Hey everyone! Hope all of you are having a fabulous weekend so far!! Did you all have a great Halloween? Can't believe it's November already...before we know it, the new year will be here (and I will be graduating :D)!!!
I was looking through my collection of cd's and decided to dedicate this post to a very special collection and tell you a little story. :)
I was walking through my local Target store a couple years back, music section of course :P, when I noticed a specific stack of cd's in one of the racks. The cover immediately caught |

 Hey Readers,
So, I know I’ve neglected you for the last two weeks. I truly am sorry : (
It was completely unintentional, I promise. See…I had this little thing called Swine. (I always squawk when I say that word, like it’s associated with death or something, so if you could hear me it would sound like SWINE!) Really, it’s what I get after seventeen years of unhealthy eating and sleep deprivation. But still, I’m here to tell you: Swine? NO FUN.
But anyway, on to more important things. Like movies!
I had a lot of TV-watching time while I was lying on my sick bed, so I have a couple new BlockBuster suggestions for you.

 Hey, guys! Ready for this week's book review? In S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders, we meet two rival gangs: the Greasers, and the Socs (pronounced so-shees). While the Socs are rich and popular, the Greasers are poor, and looked down upon. Among the Greasers is 13-year-old Ponyboy Curtis, an orphan, who lives with his older brothers Darry and Sodapop. Unlike the older, tougher members of his gang, he often lives in fear of being cornered and beat up by the Socs; the same thing happened to his best friend, Johnny. |

Yesterday, our women’s ministry at church (Girls Like Me, any woman 7th grade through age like 100 haha) put on our annual Girls Like Me Tea! This year it’s theme was “Sugar and Spice” (to show how each and every girl has a little sugar and a little spice)! The young teen girls (us haha) are considered “Spice”…and the older generation of women were “Sugar” haha =D! ANYWAYS…we also have this life-group at our church for girls 7th-12th grade called “Girls Guiding Girls”…and all of us (about 18 girls in all) served a table at the tea! Each table had a hostess (older woman who served the tea to their designated table) and each table had a teen server (pretty much waitress type thing) =) AAAND me and my bff Abigail performed “One and The Same” by Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato with two of the “Suga’s” hehe =) SO me and Bgail had to be there at 8 am. It was crazy!! But soooooo much fuuuunnnnn!!!!! Us girls got a bunch of videos, but couldn’t fit them into the craazy gangsta video last night….so I’m putting them up tonight!

| November 14th, 2009 Hey yall!! I so badly miss my sister!! She is spending the night at a friends house, and I really miss her not being here at home with me!!  I have gotten so used to hanging out with her and making cool videos over the past 33 days, that I really miss when we arent together. I seriously would rather have my sister, than any cellphone, myspace, facebook, whatever!! Shes so much fun, and super funny, and cute. I totally dig her laugh, and love how she says the most randomly funny things!!! I hung out with my pets tonight..Princess my kitty, and Pedro(Lil P) my doggy, they are the most rad pets ever. Pedro is a spaz most of the time, but hes so darn cute..with his big ol ears, and eyes. Hes so tiny..only weighs like 2 pounds…but he is such a bully to my big fat cat Princess. She is so precious..she is 5 years old(I think) and I have had her for almost 4 years…we adopted her. The family that had her previously was not very nice to her..they abused her. So sad. But she is the happiest most chill cat I have ever seen. She is such a sweet mama..she has had babies before and actually took in a litter of kitties that wasnt even hers and fed them because their momma left them:( She is gigantic and loves to eat..but the coolest thing is she talks…when you say hi to her..she meows back…If I ask her a question, she always answers me..not sure what she says..she could be saying, “leave me alone, I dont really care what outfit you wear”..who knows..:)haha its just cool!! So I am so stoked about my day tomorrow..I get to go to a cool church event for “Girls Like Me”! We are having a tea for mothers and daughters and I am going with my mommy and I get to sing a duet of “One in the Same” with one of my best friends..and hang out and serve our mommies tea!! It will be cool..I also have a piano recital tomorrow afternoon..I am playing a really pretty piece!! I will try and do some cool videos tomorrow!! |
