What Up Peeps!!!
Poem Background:This poem is about me finding out and learning from my Dad, that there's music everywhere!!! I had written this poem when I was in the 8th grade!!! So, BARE WITH ME, Peeps!!! LOL!! In this poem, I give you a hint of what I wanted to be when I get older!! Now, that I look back on it, to this day, I still want to fulfill that dream!!! So, here's my poem, Music Everywhere, where you'll hear the unfolded truth when I was in the 8th grade!!! Enjoy!!
`````````````````````````````````````````````
Music Everywhere
Today, my dad told me that music
is everywhere.
It's made everywhere.
For examples;
Water dripping,
Wind blowing,
Pots and pans banging,
Doors slamming,
And those are just a few.
I've been think'n about it all day
today.
Somethin's tellin me that that advice
dad told me,
is gonna be with me for the rest of
my life.
It's like a message to my life.
I've been think'n 'bout it long and hard.
Do you think my music career will
strive on?
I could be.....
famous one day for my musical
talent.
I think I am gonna strive to be
famous.
Wouldn't it be cool?
I'd meet Stevie Wonder,
Alicia Keys,
Beyonce,
India Arie,
and even Sanjaya: I'm madly in Luv w/
him!!
But, until then.....
I gotta do the basics.
I'm gonna stick with playing the
trombone.
And maybe,
even go into singing.
Until then, I'm gonna lay low.
Then I'll become famous.
You'll see!

So, what are you're thoughts from this poem?! I think, after writing it, that I really did {and still do} want to prove to people out there, that I WILL be famous!! I have something to prove to people, and I'm not afraid to show it!! This was also the time when I had a HUGE crush on Sanjaya, by the way!! LOL!! This is also a great poem to show that you learn something new everyday!!! And some things you learn, may stick with you for the rest of your life!!!
Oh!!! Peeps, before I go, I must tell you this: School Football season is already here!!! And {groan} I have to perform on some of those football games!!! So, if you don't hear from me on a Saturday, just know that you'll hear from me on a Sunday, or possibly a weekday!!! (I will be having SOME Saturday rehearsals and Competitions at Marching Band!!) So, don't think that I've forgotten about you, Peeps!!! Because I most definitely didn't!! Well, I best be going now!!!

What's Really Behind My Smile......
What Up Peeps!!!!
Can you say, "D-I-V-O-R-C-E?" The word, Divorce, is a word NO kid wants to hear!!! No matter how old they are!!! Well, just last night, I had heard it. I heard the word, "Divorce" coming out of my Dad's mouth........
My head is spinning, Peeps. What does divorce mean again?! What does the word custody mean again?! What does the word love mean again?! These words that I once knew, have now been forgotten. These words, "Divorce and Custody"......I have heard those words from different teenagers. But, I never thought that it could happen to me. These words has lied to me. They told me that this was NEVER going to happen to me......and I believed them. And love?! I think love has betrayed me as well. They told me that there's only one kind of love. But, that's not true. There are many different types of love. How do you really know when someone loves you?! How do you really know when someone has stopped loving you?! Well, I guess the perfect answer, is to look at my parents. :-(
Just last night, Dad had announced that he's already had a place to stay, and he'll be moving out in a month. I know what you're thinking, "Didn't he say that he wasn't going to move out again?!" I asked myself the same question. But, I guess he must have meant out of state, because he's already talking about how we're going to have soo much fun together. (Excluding Mom) When I heard this, I started to bawl like crazy!!! "What happened to when we used to go to Wal-Mart altogether ir de compras? (to go shopping) What happened to when we played Rummy on weekend nights?!" I screamed in my head as he was saying this. Those little things, or activities, we used to do may not have made a difference back then....but, it does now!!! I miss those things we used to do together. Now, I'm faced with the harsh reality that we (the family) will never do those things together ever again. And, there's NOTHING I can do about it.......
It hurts. I feel, actually feel, a piece of my heart breaking and leaving an empty space around it. And nothing can fill that empty space, BUT, for the whole entire family to get back together. And, sadly, it looks like that's never going to happen. But, the sad part about this, is that this tragedy will STAY with me for the REST OF MY LIFE!!!!! It'll never go away!!!
Peeps, I'm a wreck!!! Just look at me!!! I'm doing ALL Honors Classes, Marching Band, and Dealing with stuff and issues here, at home!!! This is hard to maintain!!!! There's way too much things happening at once. This is what's really behind my smile when you see me!!! Peeps...I'm in a quandary. How am I going to survive this year with all of this drama!!?? Peeps, if there's one thing you can learn from me, learn this:When you look at someone, and you think that they have a perfect life, or a better life than you, really take the time to look at their smile!!! Is it true...or just a mask to hide all of the pain?! For me, it's a mask to shield all of my pain and suffering!!! So, next time you're feeling green with envy because you think that a certain person is prettier than you or has the perfect life, take a look at their smile and really get to know them. Because 9 out of 10 times, some people's lives are not what they seem to appear.
Like me and my life!!! My parents are actually getting a divorce and will be taking turns having custody over me and my baby brother and sister!! I simply wish that I could change back time and tell my parents that I didn't want to move to Arizona when we were in Indiana. Because this incident of mom having a boyfriend here would have probably never happened in Indiana!!! Plus, back in Indiana, we were actually a FAMILY!!!{Chuckle} I mean, I knew that my mom and dad were dealing with problems, but DIVORCE?! That makes everything OFFICIAL!!! I actually miss those glory days. And, to think, I'll never get those glory days back!! Peeps, please don't feel sympathy for me!! I didn't mean to pry this news upon you!! It's just that, well, it's nice to tell you how I actually feel....since I don't really have a "Best Friend" here at North Canyon High School!! So, really, you're all I've got!!! Well, thank you Peeps sooo much for listening to me!!! I actually feel a little better since I had expressed myself!!! I'll talk to you guys next week!!!
*Remember*~Look what's really behind peoples' smiles. You never know what their life may be like unless you get to know them better.

The Lies.....The Sneaking....The Affair......
What Up Peeps!!!
Well, remember when I told you that my dad had came back and I thought that my family would be back to normal?! That everything would be the same?! Well....NOT QUITE!!!! In fact, since my dad had came back, things has gotten even WORSE!!! And, this time, it's not my dad's fault.......
Lately, my parents have been acting "strange" towards each other!!! Whenever my mom had called from work, Dad would get ME to get the phone!!! And whenever she wanted to talk to him...he refused to talk. Which made me stuck in the middle because I had to tell Mom that he was "asleep" or "busy". And, of course, I'm BAD at lying. So, it made phone conversations very awkward. And every time I heard mom and dad talking, it was either business-like, or they were arguing!!! Come to think of it, I've never heard my mom and dad say, "I love you" in a while. But, soon to come, my dad told me why they were acting this way.....
The reason?! My mom has been "seeing" this guy from her work. (Not naming names!!!) And when I'm saying, "seeing", Peeps, I mean "seeing"!!! She has went on, so you say, "Dates" with this guy!!! Now when Dad was telling me this, my mind went NUTS!!! My eyes were blurred with vision...and I was confused!!! This is NOT what a 15 year old girl, who wants a boyfriend sooo bad, wants to hear!!! Not at all!!! So, I took this seriously!!! I was in complete SHOCK!!! My Mom...CHEATING?! I couldn't believe it!!! This wasn't even like her!!! But, then there was a twist in this story.....
What was the twist?! My mom's so-called "Boyfriend", has a FIANCE and didn't even tell my mom at all!!! So, this so-called "plan" had back-fired on my mom!!! It was just getting worse and even MORE worse!!! And now, my mom's so-called "Boyfriend's" Fiance is ticked off, which, I would be, too, if I were her!!! And now, they are trying to bring my dad into this whole fiasco!!! To tell you the truth, I feel sooo bad for my dad!!! If I were him...I'd be CRUSHED!!! But, instead, my dad just LAUGHED it off in front of me!!! Which makes me even MORE sad because I think that's just a cover-up from crying about this whole situation!!!
So, how long has this been going on?! Since my mom had "invited" my dad to come back!!! I know, Peeps, it's hard to believe that this is happening to me!!! I had asked my dad on how he had felt about this!! He said that he wasn't going to leave the house again!!! He loves me, Hanifa, and Jabari!!! And nothing was going to change that!!! He said that he had to come back!!! He didn't want mom's "Boyfriend" to be our new Daddy!!! When he said this, I nearly cried!!! He lived and breathed for us!!! HIS CHILDREN!!! We are the ones that are keeping him smiling everyday!!! We are the ones that he will never stay away from!!! At that very moment, I understood what being a parent had meant.....
Life.....Unpredictable in soo many ways!!! You had your bad days...and your good days!!! Sometimes, you feel like your life is the WORST life ever....sometimes, you feel like your the luckiest person in the world!!! But, what I have learned is that FAMILY IS IMPORTANT!!! Sure, you'll hear teenagers say, "I can't wait until I'm 18...so that way I won't be in this house anymore!!!" But, we all know, even the teenagers, that we'll miss our family dearly!!! No matter what!!! And, when the time does come...we don't want to leave!!! So now, our family has changed!!! We don't go shopping ALL TOGETHER like we used to!!! We don't ALL ATTEND to family nights like we used to!!! Everything has changed...and it's quite unfortunate!!!
One thing I have known, is that NO MATTER WHAT, my parents will be there for me when I need them the most!!! And that's what I'm thankful for!!! So, now, I guess, Mom and her so-called "Boyfriend" aren't talking to each other!!! (I'm not sure) And now, mom and dad talk about that subject in a low profile!!! So, that's all I know Peeps!!! But, I do ponder on this, now that I'm getting older: Will my future boyfriend or husband cheat on me?! Will/Would we break up or have a divorce?! I surly do hope not!!! Because I will love my mate dearly!!! And, I will not cheat on him!!! (THAT'S FOR SURE!!!) Well, Peeps, I hope you've learned something from me, because that's what I'm here for!!! Be thankful for what you have!!! You never know what you got, until it's gone!!!

Play'n Solo:

Throat dry,
And sweating;
All symtoms of nervousness.

I ask myself.
This is a big risk.-
I scare myself.
Here I go......
Each note I played......
silence......
Each pause I made.....
silence......
All I can hear.....
is my heart pound'n hard.
As I played, I focused on each
note.
Once I finished.....
applause!!
Everyone loved me!!
Throat still dry;
Hands still shaking;
And heart still pound'n hard;
I head back to my seat.
Yes!

A Surreal Blur.....
What Up Peeps,
First off, I would like to wish my baby brother, Jabari, a Happy 3rd Birthday!!! His birthday was this past Wednesday!!! To celebrate, just yesterday, we went to a place called Amazing Jake's: Food & Fun!! Let me tell ya, Peeps, their buffet was AMAZING!!! Especially their pizza!!! It was delightful!!! And Jabari had a lot of fun as well!!! He had actually went on a carousel with my dad!!! (There's rides there as well!!) Of course, I didn't want to go on ANY ride!!! Between you and me, Peeps, I'm scared to go on roller coasters!!! Even the little baby roller coasters get me a little queasy!!! If you put me on a roller coaster, I will SCREAM AND YELL like Freddy Kroeger or Jason is chasing me!!! Seriously!! But, anyway, "Happy 3rd Birthday, Jabari!! Welcome to another year in this world!!!"
O.K Peeps!! So, the first day at North Canyon High School, was a blur....a surreal blur!!! First off, this school starts 10 MINUTES before Shadow Mountain High School, and yet, ENDS at the same time as Shadow Mountain High School!!! {Chuckle} So, basically, I'm staying in school for 10 EXTRA MINUTES!!! I like to learn as much as the next person, but, 10 Minutes can feel like a long time!!! Another thing I have noticed is that, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have Marching Band Practice from 6:30p.m-9:00p.m!!! (These are on school nights, may I mind you!!!) And, just this past Tuesday, I had gotten my Marching Baritone, and two, count 'em, two trombones!!! (One for home, and one for school!!) When I was trying to hold up my Marching Baritone on Tuesday, while outside, it was HEAVY!!! I know I had played a Marching Baritone last year....but, I don't remember it being THAT HEAVY!!! Which is making me nervous!!! Do I have enough stamina to pull this off?! I don't know!!! We'll see!!
On a positive note, this school has WAY MORE FREEDOM than Shadow Mountain High School!!! At North Canyon High School, you can go on YOUTUBE, check your e-mail, eat in the hallways or in classrooms, talk loud in the library, eat/drink in the library, and have 7 MINUTES PER PASSING PERIOD!!! (You can't do any of these at Shadow Mountain High school!!) When I told my sister, Hanifa, this, she was {playfully} upset!! She only has 3 MINUTES for her passing period time!!! The only bad news about this "Freedom" here at North Canyon High School, is that we only have 30 Minutes for LUNCH!!! And trust me, Peeps, 30 minutes is NOT long at all!!! It takes you about 10 minutes just to go freshen up in the bathroom, and another 10 minutes to get your food and call a friend/family member!!! See, 20 minutes has already past, and now you have10 minutes to eat your lunch!!! See how fast lunch period seems to come and go?! In Shadow Mountain High School, I think they had about 40-50 MINUTES for lunch period time!!! I know, unfair right?! But, in a sense, it is fair!!! Look at all of the "Freedom " North Canyon High School gets and compare that to Shadow Mountain High School!!! See, what I mean?!
I must admit, Peeps, that I did get lost on the first day of school!!! Not "Lost-Lost"...just "Lost"!!! (If you know what I mean!! I was close to my destination, just not close enough!!) During lunch this whole entire week, besides Friday, I sat by myself and ate my lunch while listening to the songs on my cell phone!! {Sigh} I know, sad right?! So far, I don't have a best friend like I did last year!!! I have a couple a friends in Marching Band/Band class, but, they've all got friends to hang out with during lunch!!! But, as of right now, I don't have a BFF where I can share my secrets to, or even say, "Oooo...that guy is cute!!" to. But, that's o.k...I guess!!! I also don't see any guys that I would be interested in, yet either!! I haven't seen any guy that would look like, or even remind me of Ben Barnes!! But, I guess that's o.k too!! Besides, Ben Barnes is the love of my life!!! He is my true love as of right now!! I just don't see myself liking another guy as of right now!!! But, I have seen this one particular guy, not naming names, {I don't even know his name!!} in several of my classes, and let me tell you, Peeps, this guy, from the SIDE, looks JUST LIKE Joe Jonas!!! I kid you not, Peeps!!! But only from the side!!! Every time I see him, I kinda have a smirk on my face because I keep thinking that he's Joe Jonas!!! LOL!!! He has the same bushy eyebrows and face structure as Joe Jonas!! Again, ONLY FROM THE SIDE, he looks like Joe Jonas!!! And his hairstyle is just like Joe Jonas too!! But, anyway, I guess I don't mind that I have no crush on any guy from this school yet!!
My main focus, this year, is on my school work!!! No drama, no fussing....just school work!!! All of my teachers are really nice in this school!!! I do have one STRICT teacher, but, he's pretty cool!! As of right now, here's my schedule of classes I have:
First off, I would like to wish my baby brother, Jabari, a Happy 3rd Birthday!!! His birthday was this past Wednesday!!! To celebrate, just yesterday, we went to a place called Amazing Jake's: Food & Fun!! Let me tell ya, Peeps, their buffet was AMAZING!!! Especially their pizza!!! It was delightful!!! And Jabari had a lot of fun as well!!! He had actually went on a carousel with my dad!!! (There's rides there as well!!) Of course, I didn't want to go on ANY ride!!! Between you and me, Peeps, I'm scared to go on roller coasters!!! Even the little baby roller coasters get me a little queasy!!! If you put me on a roller coaster, I will SCREAM AND YELL like Freddy Kroeger or Jason is chasing me!!! Seriously!! But, anyway, "Happy 3rd Birthday, Jabari!! Welcome to another year in this world!!!"
O.K Peeps!! So, the first day at North Canyon High School, was a blur....a surreal blur!!! First off, this school starts 10 MINUTES before Shadow Mountain High School, and yet, ENDS at the same time as Shadow Mountain High School!!! {Chuckle} So, basically, I'm staying in school for 10 EXTRA MINUTES!!! I like to learn as much as the next person, but, 10 Minutes can feel like a long time!!! Another thing I have noticed is that, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have Marching Band Practice from 6:30p.m-9:00p.m!!! (These are on school nights, may I mind you!!!) And, just this past Tuesday, I had gotten my Marching Baritone, and two, count 'em, two trombones!!! (One for home, and one for school!!) When I was trying to hold up my Marching Baritone on Tuesday, while outside, it was HEAVY!!! I know I had played a Marching Baritone last year....but, I don't remember it being THAT HEAVY!!! Which is making me nervous!!! Do I have enough stamina to pull this off?! I don't know!!! We'll see!!
On a positive note, this school has WAY MORE FREEDOM than Shadow Mountain High School!!! At North Canyon High School, you can go on YOUTUBE, check your e-mail, eat in the hallways or in classrooms, talk loud in the library, eat/drink in the library, and have 7 MINUTES PER PASSING PERIOD!!! (You can't do any of these at Shadow Mountain High school!!) When I told my sister, Hanifa, this, she was {playfully} upset!! She only has 3 MINUTES for her passing period time!!! The only bad news about this "Freedom" here at North Canyon High School, is that we only have 30 Minutes for LUNCH!!! And trust me, Peeps, 30 minutes is NOT long at all!!! It takes you about 10 minutes just to go freshen up in the bathroom, and another 10 minutes to get your food and call a friend/family member!!! See, 20 minutes has already past, and now you have10 minutes to eat your lunch!!! See how fast lunch period seems to come and go?! In Shadow Mountain High School, I think they had about 40-50 MINUTES for lunch period time!!! I know, unfair right?! But, in a sense, it is fair!!! Look at all of the "Freedom " North Canyon High School gets and compare that to Shadow Mountain High School!!! See, what I mean?!
I must admit, Peeps, that I did get lost on the first day of school!!! Not "Lost-Lost"...just "Lost"!!! (If you know what I mean!! I was close to my destination, just not close enough!!) During lunch this whole entire week, besides Friday, I sat by myself and ate my lunch while listening to the songs on my cell phone!! {Sigh} I know, sad right?! So far, I don't have a best friend like I did last year!!! I have a couple a friends in Marching Band/Band class, but, they've all got friends to hang out with during lunch!!!

- Honors World History/Geographic 1
- Honors English 3
- Concert Band 1
- Honors Chemistry 1
- Lunch 1-2
- Honors Algebra 3
- IB Spanish 3
- Marching Band
These classes are all in order besides Marching Band!! I only have that on Tuesday and Thursday nights!! I know, right?! I'm a busy woman!!! LOL!! Believe me, Peeps, on Wednesday, I couldn't wait for the weekend!! After Marching Band practice, all I want to do is go to sleep!!! So, overall, this week has been a surreal blur!!! Which only makes me curious about how the rest of the school year is going to go!!!
Well, Peeps, I best be going!!!

New School. New Kid. New Classes. New Rules. Am I ready for school?! NO!!!!
What Up Peeps!!!
To start this entry right, I would like for us to give a moment of silence to Bernie Mac!! I had gotten a text this morning that said that he had passed away just this morning!!! Weird thing is, me and my sister had just watched Bernie Mac's show just last night!! So, let's give a moment of silence to Bernie Mac to pay our respects to him........
To all of my Peeps out there who did not know this: I am going to a NEW SCHOOL this year!! So, instead of going to Shadow Mountain High School, I am going to North Canyon High School!!! And let me tell you Peeps, I am FREAKING OUT!!! Once again, I am going to be the NEW KID!! Peeps, I gotta tell you, when it comes down to meeting new people, I tend to get really nervous!!! And, when I say, 'really nervous', I do mean REALLY NERVOUS!!! My hands start to sweat, my heart rate thumps 10x faster than normally, my throat AND mouth gets really dry, it's hard for me to make eye contact, and between you and me: My deodorant can't even stand a chance when I get nervous!! So, basically, I have Nervous Breakdowns!!
I know, right?! Talk about embarrassing!!! And, on top of all of that, I signed up for ALL Honors classes, and Marching Band/Band!! (Just like last year!!) So, I have a lot on my plate right now!!! And it's making me nervous!!! If you asked me if I was ready to go back to school, I am (and will) say, "No!!" Plus, this will be a new school to me!!! With new rules, a new campus area, and people who I don't even know!!! And on top of it all, it's a BIG school!!! It's soo big, they even have a 2nd floor for the school!!! (It has stairs!!! Go figure!!) Which means a better chance for me to get LOST!! And with only 1 more day until I go back to school, it only makes the stress level even higher!!! (I will be going back to school on August 11th!! A Monday....Great!!! Hint: sarcasm there!!)
Ha!! You'd think that I'd get used to being a new kid and going to a new school....but, no!!! I'm just that type of person who gets nervous over EVERY LITTLE THING!! A test, a competition, meeting a new person, even getting up in the middle of class to just get a tissue!!! That's just how I am!!! Which is why I know I can be a great friend to everyone else!! Including you, Peeps!!! You know, I can tell you anything, and, you pretty much understand me!!! Which is cool, because I know you have my back!!! All I got to say, Peeps, is that there's going to be a scared Sophomore going into North Canyon High School!! (Me, of course!!) So, North Canyon High School, Here I come!!!

- The Dream~I Love Ur Girl
- David Banner/Chris Brown~Get Like Me

So, tell me Peeps: Is there ANY songs on this list that is your favorite?!
As The Secret Life of the American Teenager is progressing, the secret of Amy being pregnant is spreading around her school like wildfire!!! It's to the point where even Ben's DAD is even getting suspicious!! After Ben's Dad had a talk with Ben, Ben had decided to take action!!! He and Amy went on a picnic together, and Ben made Amy's favorite food!!! (Awwww...how sweet is he?!) After they made a toast,(with Ginger Ale, of course!!) Ben popped the BIG QUESTION!!! He had asked Amy to marry him!!! Amy was taken aback and then started to cry!!! She then kept saying, "You know?!" Ben finally had said yes...that his father had gotten suspicious about it!!! Amy then confesses to Ben that it's Ricky's baby...and she didn't know what to do!!! As of right now, Ben is trying to convince Amy to tell her parents!!! Speaking of Amy's parents, Amy's dad, George, is going to Las Vegas for a while because Amy's mother, Anne is suspecting that George is cheating on her!!! Come to find out, George IS cheating on Anne!!! But, guess, just guess, who's he's been secretly seeing?! ADRIAN'S MOTHER!!! Yeah..talk about your typical cheater!!! (Ugh...that makes me SICK!!) Speaking of Adrian's mother, she is going away, ALSO,for a couple of days to meet George!!! (Typical!!)She had told Adrian the whole story and had given her some money for food and etc. As this is all happening, Jack is with Adrian, not knowing what was going on!! He and Adrian agree to "Pretend" that they are going out so that way, for Jack, it can make Grace jealous, and for Adrian, it can make Ricky jealous!!! Ricky is now receiving news that he got a girl pregnant!! I'm not sure whether or not he knows who the girl is yet!!! Ricky is taken aback and is now talking with his trusted guidance counselor for advice!! Grace is starting to trust Ricky more and more...and making Jack the enemy!!! Jack then explodes and says that his either grandfather or great grandfather (Sorry!! I can't remember that part too well!!) told Jack to go out with Grace just to make her family happy!!! (OUCH!!) Grace is taken aback by this!!! Then, Jack tells Grace to ask Ricky if he got a girl pregnant!! That makes Grace confused, and mad all at once!!! Meanwhile, Amy's friends, especially Lauren,(I think that's her name!) from Bernie Mac, is trying really hard to convince Amy to tell her mom!!! As of right now, Amy doesn't want this baby!!! She wants an ABORTION!!! Ben's counselor is telling Ben to CONVINCE Amy to talk to her parents about her pregnancy!!! So, a lot has happened in just one episode, right?! If you've missed some episodes from this series, DON'T WORRY!!! There will be a marathon of The Secret Life of the American Teenager on Tuesday at 3/2c on abc family!!
Well, I better go!! There will be more from me soon to come!!!
*Remember*~You will receive an unexpected gift from an acquaintance.
