To Be A Dork

A poem by Jessica M. (Me)

To be a dork can be many things
Like being smart and randomly sing
Embarrassing yourself can connect to that too
But no worries, no one is going to sue you

What type of books you read is a contribution
Anime, mythical, fantasy - now that can be a situation
How you express things and how you do in sports
Also if your laugh has a snort

Those are just some characteristics
But there is more
Like doing a magic trick
Or being a bore

Know I have nothing against being a dork
I consider myself one too
But don't go suicidal with a fork!
'Cause people love you

Remember this:
Whoever judges you
That's their loss
'Cause to be a dork
is BOSS

Rain

Just a haiku that I wrote over the weekend.

Rain

Rain - how sweet it is

Cold, wet - just so calm to me

Rain can make my day

STOP BULLYING NOW!

Hey y'all!
This is a post about a major problem all over the world. That's right. BULLYING.
Okay, why am I posting this. Here are 3 links about two similar stories. These stories, have become huge! And of course, is is about bullying. The first one, recently just happened. And the writing isn't that long but the video is long.
The first link is about 14 year old girls who committed suicide at their sleepover.

The second one is probably one who have heard because it have gone viral. To me, this second one, is like the one above, but this one happened last year. The links are below.
These links are about a girl, named Phoebe Prince. She committed suicide because of cyberbullying.

Bullying comes in different ways. There are:
cyberbullying
physical bullying
social bullying
verbal bullying
indirect bullying
intimidation & etc.
You can find the definition of the ones I just mentioned here: http://library.thinkquest.org/07aug/00117/typesbullying.html

This situation is big deal. Especially in middle school through college. That's probably the worst times of being bullied. Because you can commit suicide. While on the other hand, you can't really do that while you are in secondary school. But I am not saying to kill yourself cause you can. I am asking you to help stop bullying in the world. You can make a difference.

Here is a song by Selena Gomez and the Scene that I think is a wonderful message especially if you are being bullied or know someone who is.

I hope this entry will make you think twice about bullying.

And I will like to know if you would like to make a difference in the world by stopping bullying, like me. So comment!

And let me leave this question for the bullies. Do you REALLY want to be responsible for some one's death?

Random Cat I Like To Call 'Kitty!'

So, this post is obviously about a random cat that I like to call 'Kitty'! Well, she wasn't my cat and had no name tag and she is a cat so the best name in that situation, is Kitty. lol.
This is what happened...

My mom went outside to walk our friend to their car. Then she called me and told me "There is a cat outside our door! Come see!" So I came really excited! The cat was so cute and big! But still so sweet! I really wanted to pet her but my mom said I shouldn't. So I didn't.

My sister overheard me talking to the cat so she came downstairs to see herself. She and the rest of my family, except me has seen that cat before. They have seen it because it always walks behind our house in the evening but I always miss it. So this was the first time I saw her.

As I mentioned, the cat was big. Big that my mom thought it was pregnant. ha! But I don't think she is.

Also at one point of looking and talking to the cat and my sister at the door, I said, "It could be rabid! And jump up at us and attack us!" Weird right? Weird because my sister replied, "There is no foam coming out of its' mouth so no, it is not rabid." (Take note that I know that rabid animals have foam coming out of their mouths before, way before this situation.)

'Kitty' (the cat) meowed at us and wanted to come into the house but my mom said no. I really wished she could of though, she seemed super sweet. But we figured that she belonged to someone because we live in an apartment right now and there is a lot of more apartments and all around us so she could belong to one of the residences here. And she looked very healthy and obviously domestic. I loved that cat! She reminded me of my own cat back home, Piggy. I miss Piggy! And I miss 'Kitty'!

Oh! And 'Kitty' wouldn't leave the front door! It was really cute! And when a residence pasted by,s he hide in a bush next to our apartment. When I came out to see where she went, she came out. She is a super sweet kitty! I hope to see her again! :D

Here are a few pics of 'Kitty' that I took!

Quick Notes --May 15 & May 16

This post is about my flight (May 15 to May 16) on the way to the United States. I will try my best to make it make sense because the notes I took doesn't really make sense but let me try.

• Mayonaise was invented in France
• Baseball, in Latin, means 'the gentle way'
• Ian Flemming created James Bond (probably everyone already knew that)
• The play, 'curveball' is in the sport baseball.

The notes below this is from the flight from Joburg to New York.

*About 3 and 1/2 hours till we reach destination- New York*

Movies I watched:

• Over The Hedge (haven't seen that movie in ages!!)

Music I listened to:

• A Year Without Rain by Selena Gomez and the Scene,

• abit of Disney's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1

Random notes:

• I got some sleep on the plane but I was ver ncomfortable. Oh! And there was even a whole moon! Very pretty!

May 16- Less than 60 minutes till reaching New York!!

• I saw the sun rise! I was thinking of taking a photo but I wasn't sure if I was aloud to to take one or not..so I didn't take one. But the sunrise was B-E-A-U-TIFUL!!
• We were probably about 2000 meters (in altitude) and all we coud see wa clouds. But it still looked pretty!! Thanks for reading my random notes that I took while flying! Blog more later!!

Sorry I haven't written in a while. But I wanted to make a post about my friends. So here it goes!

I am thankful what God has blessed me with. My family and friends. I love the friends He has blessed me with! I am soo thankful for them. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have them as my friends! That's how much I love them! I don't care if other people make fun of me for being their friends, that is their problem..I'm not going to betray my friends for someone else who probably is not my true friend. But I know I have true friends. I love them! They are too awesome! ;) But they are. Thank you GOD for blessing me with them! ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD! GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!! So, that is all I have to say for now. But I know I got my true friends right here. I know they always got my back and I will always have their back! Thank you guys sooo much!!! <3

Proverbs 10

This is just a random post about my 5 favorite verses in Proverbs 10.

Proverbs 10:8- "The wise in heart accept commands, but a chattering fool comes to ruin."
Proverbs 10:12- "Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers over all wrongs."
Proverbs 10:27- "The fear of the Lord adds length to life but the yearsof the wicked are cut short."
Proverbs 10:25- "When the storm has swept by, the wicked are gone, but the righteous stand firm forever."
Proverbs 10:17-"He who heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray."

My favorite one out of these 5 and why:

I like Proverbs 10:12 because even if you dislike someone, you should still love them. It might be hard at first but if you ask God for help, He will help you. And by also loving your enemies, you are glorifying God and making Him happy. Isn't that what God wants from us?

I am posting this because:
1) I wanted to post on my blog :P
2) I did this for Science class and I thought I would post it :)

2010

2010 was a great year

But sometimes, there were fears

But in the end, it got great

But I think this came to late

During 2010

Some tears came out

Sometimes, it was great

And there was no doubt

Of course tears came now and then

But really, who doesn't do that?

But that was way back when

And no, that's FLAT

The GREAT times

Came at the last minute

But I still cherish those moments

And they were a hit!

No matter what happens

I will remember 2010

They are written in my heart with a pen

I love you friends!
