What if...

Purple was really green
The dinosaurs turned into animals
The world was seen in different colors by everyone
Your backyard was your front yard
A car was a truck
A truck was a car
Flowers were Venus fly traps
Aliens exist
The planets names were all switched around
College wasn't here
School didn't exist
Your ABC's were backwards and it was ZYX's!
Your pencil was really a pen
Sharks could walk on surface
Colors are perceived in different shades of blue and not seen the same in every eye
Oompa Loompa's do exist
There was no fast food
Everything you learned was a lie
The sky was fake
We are just like barbie dolls for someone to look down on and play with


Everything you learned was a lie
If you ask me I think that the human mind is a extremely intriguing thing because it's like what if someone was seeing pink but in different tones... There is color blindness and I mean maybe that's just a cover up... In High School I read a book about a Utopian society and it always made me think... What if we have a Utopian society? I mean what if when we die it's because someone injected you with some kind of killer fluid...?  In the book they would have ceremonies for the old people and they'd pass on to paradise but what was really happening was they were killing them... There was no such thing as twins and if there were twins born they'd kill it and toss it down the chute or they'd send it to another little place.  This boy learns all of this and he was pretty much taught that there was no color and when he was finally shown it because he was a special person (I'm not saying the title because it'll ruin the book for you) and he finally gets a baby brother, they also have breeders that do nothing but get injected and have babies for everyone else... Then that's what they do for their whole life...  Anyways back on topic he ends up realizing that everything he learned was a lie.... He finally takes his brother because I think if I remember right they were going to end up killing his brother or something dramatic like that so he took his brother with him and they escaped to a new place... They ran away and all sorts of people went after him it was an AWESOME book.  But the point is that he finally learned that all the stuff he knew was completely wrong...  It got me thinking what if that's what is going on in our society..?  And Also the Truman show he was in a TV series and thought that it was real life his WHOLE entire life and the people in the real world were just sitting there and watching him... He finally started catching on and I'm not going to say what exactly happens because again I hate ruining books and movies for people... But it's just like what if that's what is going on here? What if there is more to the world than what we are saying...?  You will never know. and it's one of the most scariest things to me, what if everything was just staged...?  I mean what if everything we knew actually was a lie to form a perfect society in the views of our government?  It's insane to think about because I mean what if we are just being watched and someone is giggling at everything going on....  It's kind of freaky too, what if someone is waiting for the perfect time to pounce on us and surprise us by being like TADA this was all a lie, everything you once knew was a lie! It'd be a huge shocker and then we'd end up finding out oh hey there was a whole other island we were told that everything was connected together and these were all states but we just found out that we are being kept in here and there is so much more out there!

The earth was actually a giant marble that has been played with giants.

I think that giants would be playing a game of pin ball or something like that with the earth if we were actually a marble... I could see us being like the eight ball when they played pool or something and they'd try not to hit us to much....  I wonder how big that would make the earth though I mean like they'd have to be HUGE giants living in outer space or... on a bean stock...  but it'd have to be pretty big unless what we were told about how big the earth was was a lie...  I think it would be awesome if like you were looking up in the sky and then you just seen this huge hand coming after you and then it just like covered the whole thing... Maybe that's why it turns dark outside... Maybe a giant is sleeping with us in his bed like a little teddy bear....  I would probably try stealing a rocket from NASA and like go up to where the giant would be and be his best friend... I'd just hope he didn't sit on me or anything and then maybe I could get my family and friends in a rocket to prove to them that I wasn't crazy and them sending me to the looney bin was the worst choice of their lives...  Then we'd be like the little midgets walking around with the giants and instead of driving cars we'd like drive a shoe....  Then we'd have some magical portal to go back and forth to earth... And the crumbs of the giants would be a crumb for us... And the mice would be like horses to ride around, I think that it'd be pretty darn awesome to be best friends with a giant... We could like climb up on stuff and it'd be like climbing up a huge cliff...  I wonder if they would have a sun, or if they'd end up with a flash light thing as a sun.... Or if the sun would be HUUUUUUUGE!  There's a lot of what if's....  I bet they could like use a toilet paper roll as a house and if we'd be as tiny as a house....

It is How it is

If you can't fend for yourself in this world and your on your own unless you have gobs of money to get maids you are screwed.  Now you have to have money for EVERYTHING, if you don't have money then your out cold.  Very few people help others in need anymore.  You know why!? Because STUPID people who HAVE money are sitting outside with no job but money and a home and POSING as a homeless person!  Really, that's what society has come to...  You can never tell who is actually in need because there are SO many people who are like oh I need money for this and that and then you find out they didn't need it they just wanted to get more money.  It's a disgusting thing that people do...  It's really sad how people are, I mean seriously there are a lot of people in need out there and nobody wants to help because so many people are lying about being homeless.  Then again, now there are homeless shelters that let people in and they are feeding them and everything else.  People don't really have to be homeless anymore and they can actually try, the world has changed and I've had a family friend who was once upon a time homeless... It's sad because now he doesn't even want to get out of a home because he is so scared that he's going ro end up homeless again... Sad part about it is he served for our country... All of those people walking around thanking the vets for serving but they don't realize some of those people you see walking the streets.... are vets too!  I mean seriously that's what it's come to in this world everyone goes for themselves. When are people going to see the shame in which they do?  It just infuriates me SO much!  There are people starving themselves to feed their little ones...  It's a depressing thought and I wish that if I was a billionaire I'd just create a homeless shelter for people to stay in and get more of the shelters on the map.  We have to take a stand, people shouldn't be out on the streets begging for money when they HAVE the money.  Homeless people, some of them don't even think when they get money... They could be going to a booze store for all we know!  OR they could walk over to Walmart, but you know what the smartest thing would be to do?  Go to a discount store!!!! Yeah it's close to expiration but it's better than nothing! And you will get more that way, and be able to provide better.  If you ask me this world has gone to complete crap.  When your going down 13 headed toward bolivar just before the kum and go in Springfield, there's typically ALWAYS a homeless person there.. I look at them and they are clean shaving', have nice shoes on, and raggedy clothes and I'm just like... Seriously..?  I mean come on if your going to act homeless then actually dress like it... I understand there's donation shops for the homeless too... But not that nice of a shoe, also since when did homeless people have a cell phone?  It's like my god is it so hard to just let the people that actually need it GET it!?  You are sitting pout there and taking away from nice and kind people...  I just wish that the people who did that would just stop, I understand the whole part of GREED, but there comes a point in time when you should realize OH hey this is wrong!  I should not be doing this!  And STOP.  I wish that someone who does this crap would read this and be like oh god.. I am STUPID I shouldn't do that!  And maybe then slowly people will stop and the homeless people will get what they deserve... My mom one day seen a lady crying in a store because she couldn't buy canned goods because she didn't have enough money.... My mom went outside after the lady and handed her 20 dollars to go back in and get the food she started crying and hugged my mom thanking her...  That's what the real thing is... When they are literally crying in thanks because they cannot believe someone could be so nice.  I will never forget that day... Not till I die.

Taking Risks

There's a risk to whatever you do, you have to realize that NO matter WHAT there is always a chance of something happening... Being in class writing this there is a chance of someone breaking in and killing me and everyone else in this room.  Walking across the road there is a chance of someone running straight into you and killing you on impact, people don't realize what a risk they are taking just to take a walk or go to school... I mean really fear can be scary but eventually you overcome it.  I was TERRIFIED of heights but then I realized what I could be missing out on so I started getting over it and I've made so many memories from it.  I rode every single roller coaster in Silver Dollar City, other than the Outlaw ride because it was the grand opening and it broke down with people on it...To me from my views I'm not absolutely terrified to do things that are insane... Your looking at the kid who found a huge pile of dirt at a old trailer park took her best friend to it and then they found a wet floor sign, and started sledding down mud on a wet floor sign...  We were going to make this EPIC sled out of a broken lawn mower, some other stuff I forgot exactly what and when we made it I was going to be the test dummy... Then the next day there were workers out there so then everything was canceled because all of our stuff was taken away... I've experienced a lot of things and it's just made me stronger through out the years, I've had near death experiences a lot... At my little sisters birthday party my other little sister wanted to go out to the booee so I told her okay because she had a life jacket on, I made sure that she knew it would make her float above water and I even showed her, I asked her if she was comfortable and she replied with a yes...She then held onto me and as I reached where I couldn't touch and I was swimming with her holding onto my neck she started screaming and freaking out, she then got on top of my shoulders and I went under the water... She was on top of me screaming for help and when my feet would touch the bottom of the surface I tried to jump up out of the water to get a breath, I was able to and when I went up I looked and seen everyone staring at me and just watching... NOBODY was helping me....They were all just staring at me and I started thinking after that day... Nobody was helping me and all they did was just watch carelessly as I was drowning... Finally when I was about to pass out someone pulled her off of me, I knew I was about to go because I lost all feeling in my body and everything was literally starting to go dark I exhaled with the last bit of air I had and then I felt my body go back up to the surface, when my face was out of the water I was gasping and coughing still trying to get air back in my lungs, after I was out of the water everybody started showing concern... It honestly made me feel like crap that I wasn't worth saving.  I've witnessed a lot of near death experiences but I feel that was the worst one... I've been in about four lock downs because of someone having a gun or threatening to shoot up the school.  I've looked death in the eye and now I'm not scared the way I see it is if I die, it was for a reason.  I don't allow things to get in my way anymore and I think the lake was a huge part of that, I realized that when it comes down to it you are on your own there is no way out.  If you can't fend for yourself in this world and your on your own unless you have gobs of money to get maids you are screwed.  Nobody wants to really help anyone anymore unless they get something out of it.  There are few left in this world that will help you.  You have to take a risk in order to feel accomplished, I'm not terrified of taking chances, I won't go on a 40 ft tall cliff and jump onto a bunch of rocks however, sorry to burst your bubble (Haha) but my whole point is that you have to take at least some risk.

Fear

My biggest fear is that people will end up trying my food and they'll be like OH MY GOD THIS IS ETHE WORST THING I'VE EVER TASTED!  I am always scared that my cooking won't be good enough... I'm afraid that when I'm cooking in culinary the chef is going to taste test and then be all like IT'S TERRIBLE! And like the whole class will point and laugh in my face... That's probably a bit extreme... but that's seriously my biggest fear, or one of them... My very first one would be losing my mom, I love my mom and I don't know what I'd do with out her.  She's the one who inspired me to go to college and get on living my dream.  She has always been there to give me advice and I thank her so much for it.  When I was going into competition she always told me text me when your there when your on your way back when you wanna talk, update me on what's going on, just let me know your okay.  She's a worry wort but it's because she cares.  I think that my mom is the biggest role in my life because I do everything I can for her, I remember she was REALLY sick when I was like 14 and so I walked all the way to Walmart just to get her a sprite which Walmart was about four miles way from my house... I hope that my mom knows how much she means to me... I know I can be obnoxious and so can everyone else it's just who we are I mean come on nobody can be 100% perfect...  I love myself the way I am I mean yeah sure I look at myself and I'm like I need to lose weight... I need to put on make up and I just go on but I like myself for who I am on the inside...  I am not completely sure what my future holds but I do know one thing, I will live the best I can and I will try as hard as I can.  I know that eventually my biggest fears will come true but honestly the way I see it is yeah when I'm driving it's kind of terrifying when you have a huge semi coming after you on a road with a TON of S turns... It's happened and I was freaking out and almost in tears because there was nowhere to turn but inside I also knew that if I die I die, it's something meant to be.  If you live your life in nothing but fear your not going to go anywhere in life... Sometimes you miss out on wonderful things, views, people and who knows what else because your just to scared to jump in...

Trips to Cuba

My sister wanted to go see her girlfriend(Ex now) who lived in Cuba, MO.  It is about a four hour trip there and back.  On our way back we were on 44 and a trucker hauling a bunch of cars in the back was swerving all over the road... So my boyfriend is like dude this guy is SKETCHY we need to geet out of here! So he hurried up and got passed the semi...  The semi then goes into the lane we just went into after passing him and turns on his brights and it's SUPER bright right into the mirrors... So then the semi goes back in his lane, our exit is coming up in about 9 miles and finally we reach the exit and we are yielding to all the cars going by, the semi pulls up right behind us... I hear Meghan go "What the hell!?" As my boyfriend stomps on the gas and burns out off the ramp I hear a strange voice scream"YEAH YOU BETTER ****ING RUN!"  Come to find out the trucker had got out of his semi... Walked up to the car and tried pulling my boyfriend out of the driver seat... After we are going out I look out the back and the semi is coming after us... My boyfriend is speeding like hell trying to get away from this semi who for some reason HATED us... We did nothing but pass him because he was swerving in the two lanes on 44... We finally get to a bank that was really run down and just hid for about 5 minutes...  We finally headed back to 32 to get back into Bolivar and on the way we reported the trucker and we haven't heard anything of it since.

My Role Model

My mom is the biggest role model that I have.. Growing up I didn't really have a dad because he left when I was little, my mom provided for us all the time and she did it by herself and with my grandma.  My mom has sacrificed so much to make us happy, she's gone through some extremely rough patches and just kept going.  The only thing that stood between losing my nephew was my mom... My sister wasn't deemed "Fit" to be a parent so my mom took guardianship of my nephew so we wouldn't lose him and went through all sorts of stuff to get him.  My mom works so hard to provide for everyone and my whole life I've seen her struggle... Even when things were tight and someone needed help my mom always jumped in and helped.  One time someone posted online that they needed to get some money because their father was dying and nobody helped him, my mom met up with him at kum and go and gave him money, he went to go see his father before he passed, then the guy posted a thank you to the lady who met him and helped him on his why after that my mom didn't hear anything about it since.  One day I was going through McDonald's drive through with my mom in the passenger seat, a guy leans out the door trying to peak in and goes is your mom in there? I answer yeah, and leaned back he looked at her and thanked her so much for helping him and then we were informed that he didn't even get to say goodbye, he was on his way there and then his father passed away.  It was sad but touching, I wish that more people could be like my mom... She has her moments but then again everybody does.  I love my mom so much, she has given everything she can to make her family happy.  She sacrifices her own happiness for others.  When I look at my mom all I can think about is I hope that one day I can make enough money so that she can retire and have nothing to worry about anymore.  My mom works a full time job plus takes care of my nephew... She has her hands full, he is only two right now... My mom has a bunch of time ahead of her.. Hopefully though, I'll get an AWESOME job and be able to buy her her own house and she'll be relieved.  She tried buying a house but then the payments went up and up and up, it turned out it was a huge scam and then it messed up her credit to where she couldn't ever buy a house... If you ask me we should have got something out of that whole thing! We put thousands into that house and it ended up being a scam... There were houses across the street catching fire due to electrical issues, the doors could be opened with a credit card, heck our back door would just fly open even though it was locked... I remember having to scoot a couch in front of the door so nobody could get in.  People have been using my mom and I'm just fed up with it, she fell in Dollar General and they said they'd pay her bill and yet they still haven't...  It seriously infuriates me that those stupid people can't do their job right...  My mom has gotten cheated on so many things... I just hope in the future she will finally be able to retire and settle down... My mom is my role model...

Above are the pictures of two competitions, the first one was at prostart and we were in black because we were Hospitality and Management, we won a pity medal... They are the best! =D

Reflection

My type indicator was ENFJ meaning; Extroversion, Intuition, Feeling and judging.  After reading through all of the information I completely agree on my indicator.  It explained how I am outgoing, enthusiastic, warm, empathetic and supportive. I also agree that I focus on all the possibilities and I try to generate other ideas, I try to make a positive change and overcome problems.  In the reading it mentions "Need to monitor the amount that they use I" and that is TOTALLY true!  I use I a lot that I have to erase so many of them and I just used FOUR I's in ONE sentence.  I am just really blown away on how precise this thing is, I mean pretty much everything I know about myself it said in the eight pages.  The majority of the time these little test things are typically wrong, but this one is almost right on the dot.  The only thing I didn't like is that it mentions nothing about going into the culinary field, though it does mention that they go for music, art, drawing and things that have to do with creativity.  I feel that I am very creative and that creativity is huge when going into the culinary field.When it comes to procrastination I'm not one that often does it I just typically forget about it and then end up doing it last minute.  I hate when I have to do things last minute because then it's a lot more stressful and it's just easier to get it done and over with.  I love getting freedom whenever it comes to tasks which is why I love planning things I think that it's extremely fun, especially when it comes to the decorations.  I was the person who decorated the military ball and received a ton of compliments because it was usually all boring with all the center pieces being the same.  I changed each center piece to something that symbolized AFJROTC.  I love to work in groups rather than by myself because to me I think that more brains together and more opinions are better than just one. Whenever it comes to communication at first I'm kind of shy but as it goes on I start making jokes and I get comfortable, the only times I really get offended are whenever someone disagrees or interrupts me.  I mean whenever your little your teachers are always like don't EVER interrupt someone, it's one of the rudest things you can do.  That's just me though, I just like feeling like someone is actually listening to me and it's like when they interrupt you, you know they had to of been thinking about what they were going to say so then you know that they were not listening and it is kind of offensive...  Overall, I think that the indicator got right on the money with finding out who I'm about and the things that really offend me, my creativity, procrastination and communication.

Free Write

When I was little and in day care we use to play with Lincoln logs all the time, I remember one time I built a huger tower out of Lincoln logs and someone ended up knocking it over.  I was really sad and I got put in time out because I started crying,  I think that Lincoln logs were one of the funnest things to play with.  You could pretty much build anything you wanted out of them.  I would always either build a tower or a cabin.  I remember when they first introduced the Lincoln log house covers where it's like the plastic roof that was green or something like that.  I remember always building all sorts of stuff with it I even build a fence around my cabins.  Sometimes people would come over and play with me but for the most part I got the Lincoln logs to my self.  When we had our little play time we mainly went outside so I didn't always get to play with the Lincoln logs, we had swings, a basket ball thing, a bunch of room to run around in and a little play house thing... It was boring, but when we went outside we had all sorts of games to play and all sorts of toys.  Lincoln logs teach a lot of things to kids I think because it's like you have to have some kind of creativity to build something out of the Lincoln logs.  It shows kids that they can build anything if they put their minds to it.  I think that when a kid has to look at just one little log with some indention's in it and they have to think about all the things that they could make with it it makes their brain start working and they end up building creativity and having some brain action going on.  I don't know what to write anymore, this is so much work and my fingers are starting to get angry at me and they keep hitting buttons but I cannot hit the backspace button and it's killing me seeing all of those spelling errors and my OCD is going off I hate not being able to use my backspace button.  Lincoln logs are not as popular as they use to be I mean not very many kids play with them anymore, you don't see them in day cares or anything like that and now they have other toys to play with they are getting phones and gaming systems and BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH I just think it's stupid that they got all the cool stuff. I am glad my childhood is how it was because I feel that if it wasn't I'd just be like uncreative... God these spelling errors are driving me insane and my fingers just got off the buttons that they were suppose to be lined up on the keyboard keeps moving forward so it's like a tight fit between the keyboard and under my computer desk.  I can't really keep the spelling errors anymore they are so annoying WHY MUST I HAVE SPELLING ERRORS WAHH WAHHH WAHHH I HATE SPELLING ERRORS :x I don't know what to write I don't know what to write, I don't know what to write I am very tired  I am very tired I had very little sleep because someone wouldn't let use go to bed last night.
