Remembering Those Around You

We often let our life slip threw our fingers 1 by 1. We often forget about the memories we had that are good. People may think that nothing good happens in our life, we have no good memories. Well here is  the thing, no matter how horrible your life is, their is always someone out their who has a worser life then you. People in the world have absolutly no food or money. tehy lie on the streets in the gutters. Just think for a minute those who have had relatives in the army, navy big organizations like that. Think for a moment about the families that have had relatives die protecting our country for the wonderful citizens of it. If we ever think that our lives are horrible, think about the people of Haiti, New Orleans, those who have suffered tragic times for their country, or city, town whatever. We as Canadians haven't had any real big tradgedies that killed thousands or even millions, yes we do have the army that is risking their lives to protect us, but nothing happened in Canada. When students think "Ugh, another lame assembly" for Rememberance Day, I think of it as remembering the ones that risked their life for us. So if you are in this school next year and we have the rememberance day assembly, just think of it as a tribute to the brave soldiers that risked their life for uus. Even if you are out of the school still take the time to remember the ones who risked their life for you, and not just rememeberance day, yo should take the time to remember the ones around you who have faced worser turmoil in their life, then you have. there is always someone who has a worser life hen you do...remember that.

Remembering Those Around You

Am I a Who...or The Grinch?

Sorry for my other posts not regarding school, I have been bored on spares and at home so i kinda have been posting other posts on my blog, I ahve a lot of creativity built up in my short outer appearence. I did though make another blog on google blogs so if your bored of seeing my school blog, go to my other school.


Now for today's school post, am I the Grinch or a Who I am a Who.


In the lovely movie that everyone knows about "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" the Grinch hates christmas but the Whos love it.


I am a Who because I love christmas. It does take a bit of time for me to get into the christmas spirit sometimes depending on how I am feeling, and what is going on in my life, will determine how slow or fast I get into the chirstmas spirit. This year it wasen't until one of those good snowfalls we had. I was walking up my lane and I sniffed the air and each season has it's in particular sent that is all similar but their is those little smells that make the season. So when I smelled the air of winter...I knew it was winter and christmas was coming. Now back on topic, I am a Who because they like christmas for multiple reasons some of me reasons are: it is a time to spend with family, it's a time to give, and it's a time for NO school. I love christmas also because of the presents. What you can get depending on whether or not it was store boughten or hand made by a family memeber, it just feels great to recieve gifts. It makes you happy you get the sense that someone cares enough about you to get a gift for you. I also love the family dinners. Turkey, corn all that good food that family makes for this time of the year. The weather, when their is a white christmas I am extremely happy, when their is a green christmas I am happy, and it feels like christmas but it doesn't really feel like christmas. Christmas to me is a joyful time of the year. It is actually one of my favourite holiday's of the year. Also what I like about christmas is I know that when christmas is hear,December 25, I know my birthday is in 15 daysthat's including December 15, so my birthday is January 8. I love the traditions that come with christmas. My family always get's christmas chocolates for the tree, candy canes, and obviously presents. I am the one in the family who organizes all the presents. So I know all the weight of the gifts for my family, I know the quantity of how many gifts my family memebers have, and I have to to figure out what my gifts may be. I also love to decorate the tree. Seeing all the ornaments that my fmaily has brings back ememories, also memories from times with my family. The one year me and my cousins, family friends and siblings where tobggoning  on the one field hill near my grandparents house, where cows used to be. I was on one of those saucers that spin when going down a hill, I was one that and their was a fence I think it was an electric fence(luckily it was off...I think) and I was going right for it. It was nearing the end of the hill and to this fence and I knew I was going right threw it, but I ended up ducking my head, and going under the fence instead of threw it. Chistmas is also a time for remembering when the grandchildren in my family including myself, were young and we used to always get a christmas tree togetehr. We were all bundled up and it was just fun. We stopped getting a tree togetehr liek that when my grandmother died on January 15th 2003 or 2004.  Also the one christmas their was like this massive snow bank that me and my fmaily would climb on...well not the adults they would be inside.


I like Christmas because it's filled with memories and traditions I love. So that makes me a Who and not the Grinch because I love Christmas.

My Sister Amy

I am in spare right now, on facebook, and talking to my sister Amy Schieckoff. So what I am going to do is blog about my sister...beware it could get ugly.


For some who may not know that I have a sister, you will guys will learn about her today.


My sister is a year older then me, we were born pretty close together I can't remeber the exact length that was. When I was younger i looked to her as my role model and sometimes I ask her for fashion tips in the present time. My sister's full name ias Amy Kathleen Schieckoff, she works at Mcdonald's and became employee of the month(sssssshhhhhhh...I didn't mention that). Me and my sister used to fight all the time...we would have our little tiffs here and then but nothing major. Me and my sister have just goofed off nights when I can stay up later then my usual school time, and she has work off. We have a blast and we do all kids of things that very from watching a movie together with popcorn, to having a fashion show, with a purple fuzzy blanket as a back drop(pictures are on facebook, don't say anything about any of this to other friends not in this class...or else). Another thing we would do together is when my parents and brother are gone, we would put in one of our ipods into the cd player at our house, and blare it(we live in the country it's okay) Whenever we are together we always have a blast. I always love the time I ahve with my sister. We don't know when it will end. Soon enough, she'll be in college, I'll be in college(eventually...I just have to get a job...grrr so hard to get a job these days) we will start drifting apart. The possible only thing that would bring us together is a family memeber passing away, and it's not the time to catch up. We have to make memories with eachother because you never know what will happen in the future, something can happen that will keep us apart forever. Anyways...This is about my sister..I know there will be more to come I just can't think of anything right now...stay tuned to see what else I post on this blog and others.

A Teenage Novelist?

I looked at some blog sites but non are extremely appealing, but they are not bland, or full of history stuff. I was looking at different blog sites and I came across a blog that interests me beacuse, person is writing novels the link is as followed...

http://www.thoughtsofteenwriter.blogspot.com/

It is a blog site on our very own google blogs. This person has finished writing a novel, and is writing another, I am actually not sure if it is a novel or somethign else becasue their is like a soundtrack. I will warn you, if you click the link tumblr if you notice it, it will not be veiwable becasue it is not found. The other blog site that is part of this one, which I am understanding the writer went to is as followed...

http://lnlee.wordpress.com/

This site has a lot of information on stuff. This website is interesting because, on the blog it snows, click on it to see what I mean. The creator of this blog ahs pictures so it isn't just all bore, and some things are interesting that has been said. If you read the blogs, I don't think you will be bored like other history learning blogs. I was actually quite amazed that the creator is writing two novels being a teen. Just imagine an unofficial novelist wehn you're a teenager...that is my dream...either that or a poet.

Letters of Note Blog

If you haven't guessed already, I chose to look at the Letters of Note blog. I did look at the other site, but it was way to complicated, it is an easy way to get information around the world or country, but it has to be easy to read and understand. So I choose to write my blog on Letters of Note.


At first, when I first opened the blog and read the first post I was like "this is soooo boring," but i read on and even thoguh it was still boring it was actually interesting at the same time. I am not much for History or anything like that, but I found this very interetsing. It was like a history lesson in letter form. Each piece of writing I read(I read some fo them) was very interesting, and I learned something, like what time period it was. For example the first post "All ladies like whiskers" I learned that it was in the time period when women didn't have the right to vote. The posts are just an interesting read. I will admit though, the site could be more appealing. I opened it and thought right away "this is going to be a really lame blog. Blogs need to be appealing to get viewers ibnterested, if the makers of this blog want more viewers they have to amke it more appealing, and possibly depending on their targeted audience add more to get that particular audiences target interested.
