The Life of Gina

Well, I've recently been re reading all the cringey things I had written as an 8th grader lol. I noticed that I had matured greatly from my years of being in middle school. Being a freshman is a big responsibility! But that's no problem for me, since I manage to do my work on time with effort. Im pretty sure my GPA will be a 4 or 3.5 when it comes out. I actually love some of my new teachers. One of them is extremely strict, and I just can't stand him! Im passing with a B in his class since I forgot about one measly homework assignment. Oh well. I miss Heritage. I miss my English teacher Ms. Brezek. She was the one who introduced me to blogging. It is extremely soothing after a long tiring day! If you're all still wondering, yes I still love Michael Jackson! No, I do not like my best friend Bob anymore. He's still my friend that I hang out with almost every day! I just recently started skateboarding 3 months ago. Unfortunately I lost my skateboard at the mall...

      Hey guys! I was debating whether or not to post this, because it's kinda private..but then I was like "I won't put his name in it." So I'm fine with posting this blog now. I'm just going to tell you his nickname, "Pooky." He hates being called this, so of course that would be his code name.      You're probably very confused as to what this blog is about, so I'll just tell you. It's about my crush!      I have a BIG crush on him, and I'm pretty sure he likes me back. He would always want to spend time with me, and loved to go walking with me. Mostly everyday, before school started. Now we just see eachother at school, and he's always hanging out at my apartment.      Let me tell you the clues. He's touched my hands before. Like when we're playing around with eachother, we'll playfully hit eachother. Just the other day he kept trying to take my phone. He knows that I have a password on it, so why did he want it...

    In the movie "Life is Beautiful," there were some examples of a beautiful life. The mother had a nice beautiful house. Nice furniture, vases, and flowers. Second, when the mother and father weee dating, they went in a horse ride. Birds were chirping and singing, trees leaves were blowing through the wind, flowers were blooming, it was nice and sunny outside. It was a pretty nice day out, and that's what was beautiful about it, Third, there was a scene where the parents were bonding with their child. The child hid inside a dresser with flowers on top. The father said "Do you want your flowers Dora?" (Dora is the mom) Then the child started walking towards them, causing the dresser to lift up. They were laughing and having a good time with eachother. Lastly, at the end all the camps were liberated and the kid reunited with his mother. It was a very happy and graceful moment, as the mother landed kisses all over her son, and hugged him.  Since they were kept ap...

     Hey guys! This post is about one of my favorite movies of all time! My grandma had this movie for me, and every time I watch it, all the memories start flowing back. I haven't watched it in a couple years, but I do plan on buying it again.      I just love everything about it, it's sad, but then happy. I can relate to it, a girl disrespecting her parents when she doesn't get her way. It touches me deeply. I love sad, heartbreaking movies, lol. I know I'm crazy, but have you watched it? It might hypnotize you too!

     Hey guys! These are some song lyrics from one of my favorite songs, I Can't Help It.   It's a really sweet, beautiful song. Please listen to it! Anyways, here are some of the lyrics, my favorite lines. Take your time reading, and just let the lyrics sink in.  Looking in my mirror  Took me by surprise I can't help but see you Running often through my mind, girl.  Helpless like a baby  Sensual disguise  I can't help but love you.  It's getting better every time.  I can't help it, if I wanted to I wouldn't help it, even if I could I can't help it, if I wanted to I wouldn't help it, no

     A good speech needs to have some type of emotion. Whether it's sad, happy, or funny, emotions is the way to get to people. You can't have a straight face through the whole speech, that would be pretty boring.      You should include some things that stood out to you, and will most likely stand out to others. Like some advice. Such as "you only live once, so spend each day like it's your last," or "Hard work leads to immense success." Things people should know or be aware of, things that people should be doing. Such as being respectful and kind. So include some things that will touch other people.      Lastly, include your ideas and your thinking. Say what you think about your topic, don't use others quote. In fact, create your own.     

     Hey guys! This blog post is about this amazing quote. You only live once! I absolutely love this saying, but I'm never taking it to my knowledge and using it. I'm always too scared to take risks, or try new things. I shouldn't be, right? I mean, nobody else in their lifetime gets to say, "I jumped off a huge cliff into a lake full of flesh eating alligators!" I'm just kidding, but you get my point.      There is so many little things that I'm afraid to do. One being telling my crush how I feel. Its just so scary to me! Like, what if he doesn't want to be my friend anymore? I can't live without him! I must know if he likes me or not, because he's really giving me mixed signals over here. I think that I am, going to tell him how I feel. If he doesn't like me that way, then we'll stay friends. We're inseparable as it is, so it wouldn't really change anything. Sometimes I really do think he likes me, but then again I could be...

I think book club is cool because, we get to discuss questions and comments about the book. You know, things we're wondering, or thinking about. We also have this blue sheet. There's four boxes. One for book, head, heart, and questions. It's like a graphic organizer, for us to organize our thoughts. I think that writing is an excellent way to keep track. I am enjoying book talk because ever since we started, I've been getting closer to my friends. I like book talk! I just hope that next time, we can do a book of our choice! Right now we're reading "Anne Frank," a very depressing book. What book are you guys reading?

Hey guys! I was bored the other day, so I started writing down things. Just lyrics that rhymed, and popped into my head. Song lyrics. The train goes goes by but you're still on my mind The sun goes down but you still come around Everyday I see you, everyday you look better Still can't believe, still can't believe all these haters 'Cause when you're walking down the street I see those feet clicking Wearing those shades you always wear Still can't believe the way I stare... 'Cause baby I love you And baby I want you I love you more each and everyday What can I say? You're just so perfect x4

I AM A JEW by Franta Bass I am a Jew and will be a Jew forever. Even if I should die from hunger, never will I submit. I will always fight for my people, on my honor. I will never be ashamed of them, I give my word. I am proud of my people, how dignified they are. Even though I am suppressed, I will always come back to life. I'm feeling a lot of pride and honesty coming from the author. 

     Hey guys! This blog post is about my new Michael drawing! This one took me a while to draw, because I was debating whether to keep it or not. I messed it up under the lip. I was a little too excited while erasing. I erased really hard, and it made a mark. Its okay though, because I can just draw another one.      I think I did really good on this one. Maybe the face shape was a little too big, but its okay. Artists make mistakes, and I'm one of them. Comment what you think, did I do a good job? Things to improve on? Any feedback is fine. Goodbye💖     

     Hey guys! This blog is about my journal. I just bought it at Walmart last week. I've been writing in it ever since. Please, don't call it a diary. This is definitely no where near a girly girls diary. Yeah, I write about what I did today. At least I don't say I went to the mall and bought these super cute earrings. Like they're totes adorbs! Ew no! That is not me at all. Its more like Today I went to hot topic, and bought this awesome deadpool shirt!      I write about a lot of personal things that no one knows about me. This journal knows a lot about me. The only thing I can open up to is this journal, if that makes sense. Things I would rather not talk about, because its too much to take. I'd rather write about it. This journal is my get away place. My other side, which I'd rather not share with anyone . Nothing personal, its just who I am. So if you try to talk to me about personal things, you're not going to get anythin...

     Hey guys! I had a very fun spring break, and I'm about to share with you what I did. So the first couple of days were boring, or just a normal day for me. I stayed home, in my room mostly and watched YouTube. I read stories on WattPad. Wrote some chapters and updated my stories.      As you can see the pictures, I ordered some mj cd's in the mail and got them on Monday I think. I already had off the wall, thriller, bad, dangerous and the Michael Jackson essentials. I recently got the rest of his cd's. Well not ALL of them, there's a lot more for In which I plan on ordering. I just got all his later cd's, after off the wall. I'm so happy because now I can listen to his other songs, not just the original ones I had. The HIStory album/cd, (I don't know why, but I like to call them albums) has two cd's. One with all his greatest hits, the other with his new songs. So that's why it was $16.99! The others were so cheap! Like $5 to $10. I was so happy...

     Spontaneous, spontaneous. Deliberate, deliberate. What am I typing? Just a couple random words that pop in my head.      Writing, love, heart, soul, beauty, faith, truth. Truth. Some true statements. Love is worth more than all the wealth in the world. That of a good heart, is true beauty. When someone lies once, the trust barrier can be broken easily. So fast you wont even notice it. Faster than the blink of an eye.      Blink. I personally blink every four or five seconds. What would humans do without the ability to close our eye lids? Lets just say that our eyeballs would be pretty dried out. Imagine that. Ugh.      Birds are currently chirping their heads off outside right now. Probably yelling at each other. Who took my worms? I was going to feed my babies and now they're going to die of starvation! I hope you're happy now!! Believe me I am, now my babies are going to be healthy and strong. You...

You've got to keep the faith . Why? Because its just a matter of time. G on' keep it brotha, you got it. Gon' keep it sista, you got it. He's kept the faith his whole life, so why shouldn't we? Be god like, be a grateful human being. Stay calm and loving. Love is the key. So keep the faith, baby, yea. Don't let nobody take you down. Go for your dreams, no matter what anyone says. Just don't pay attention to what people might say about you. Don't let anyone get in your way. Just keep your eyes on the prize, and your feet flat on the ground. Strive, strive, strive until you get to where you're going. Focus, and concentrate, until you have it. Don't play the fool for the rest of your life. Work on it brotha and you'll make it someday. Why act stupid when you have all that it takes? Apply yourself to everything you can, just do it. Before you know it things will start going your way. But ya got to keep the faith.

     Hey guys!  This is the last slice of life post for the month! Thank you to everyone who commented and read my SOL posts!      This blog post is about what I have planned for spring break. So I haven't gone roller skating in a while, so id like to go this weekend. I'm not an expert at roller skating, but I'm not bad. I cant skate really fast, but I'm not really slow. I'm just an average skater. Seth (brother) is also going to come with us. He loves roller skating just as much as I do.      We also plan on going to the little red school house. My family and I would always go here, also with my dad. Its like a childhood thing, I've always gone there as a kid. Its kind of like a shed aquarium, museum place. They have fishes, snakes, spiders, frogs, birds in cages. Fake deer, squirrels, foxes, in small glass departments. The cool thing is that its kid friendly. Right when you walk in, there's little Indian t...

     This is so true. I've seen a lot of other quotes about trust. One of my favorites was, "you know how a plate falls and breaks. Saying sorry doesnt fix it."       This is relatable to teenagers. I'm just going to make a connection to a teen I know. Once you break someone's heart, or hurt their feelings, you mess up everything. So when the person who did it feels guilty, they say sorry. Sorry doesn't always fix everything. Yeah, you regret what you said but maybe you shouldn't of said it in the first place, right?       Once you hurt someone, it leaves a mental scar on them from you. They will always remember what you did to them. Be careful with your words because you will most likely regret it later on. It depends on what the situation is because sometimes you can forgive them. 

     Hey guys! This post is about what I did yesterday. So half of the school went on a field trip to the Holocaust museum, including me.      The bus ride there was pretty fun. It was about an hour or longer, and the whole time I was talking with my friends, listening to music, and playing games on my phone.      When we walked in we ate our lunch, then the docent talked through a mike, which we could hear through our headphones. She showed us a lot of interesting facts, and things I did not know about before. I thank her for teaching me stuff I wanted to know.      My favorite part was the little diagram of the oxygen chambers. When I hear oxygen chamber I picture a big gas tower. Actually, it was like a small cottage with two areas. One showed the gas and people trapped, the other area showed the dead bodies.      The Holocaust is an interesting topic to me. I'm interested in things such as death and consp...

     Hey guys! This post is about some cool Michael drawings I recently looked up. So one day I was looking up pictures of him and I saw this really cool one. Then I took a closer look at it and realized it was a drawing! Somehow I dream of meeting the artist. Maybe they can teach me how to draw. I'm just kidding, they probably don't want to nor have the time.       I mean just look at them! They look JUST like him! The third one is the one that fooled me. Just look at his curls..      I want to be as good as these artists one day. I guess I got to keep practicing and practicing. I'm probably going to get into art class in high school. It's so much fun to draw, it really is!

     Yeah, some girls have really pretty hair, or a nice body, or a pretty face. Most of them are not pretty on the inside though. In movies, the pretty girls are always the mean girls. So when I see people like this in real life, it's just so cliche. They think they're better than everyone else just because we don't look like them. They're pretty on the outside, but ugly on the inside.      Same thing with guys. Yeah, they have nice hair, or a gorgeous face. Most guys aren't as nice as they look on the outside. Find yourself a sweet, caring, loving guy. Don't go out with a guy just because you're attracted to them.  If you truly love someone, it has to come from their inner beauty. The heart. That's why most high school relationships don't last, they think they love eachother because they're physically attracted. Some high schoolers actually love their partner. Goals!
