Lesson Learned

A lesson that i've learned is, when i'm at a store and i want something so bad, i'll just get it, one time my sister and i were at a clothes store, don't remember the name of it, i found this really cute shirt, that i wanted to get, but i kept thinking i don't needed, so i bought something else, when i left the store, i thought "i've should of got it." So next time i'm at a store and want something i just get it.

Comma What?

My father had left our house in the midst of a fight between Lindsey and my mother. My mother was trying to get Lindsey to go with her to the Y to swim. Without thinking, Lindsey had blared, "I'd rather die!", at the top of her lungs. My father watched as my mother froze,then burst fleeing to their bedroom to wail behind the door. He quietly tucked his notebook in his jacket pocket, took the car keys off the hook by the back door, and snuck out.

Gossip Got Your Tongue?

How would your conversations be different if you 'triple filtered' everything?
It would be a totally new conversation, because if you triple filtered every gossip you hear, instead of talking bad about some one you might just make it a habit of saying good things, and gossips that are not taken as an insult of hurting someone's feelings but instead are gossip that is just something nice to say, would turn around and make someone's day.

I'm sure you have been the victim of gossip at some point in time, even if you aren't aware of it. Knowing how it feels to be gossiped about, why do you think people choose to do it anyway?

I would say that those people that choose to gossip are just hateful persons that just don't know how to forgive some one. And they just like to keep on picking on someone, by gossiping bad things

The long scar just below her left knee looked like that lady had been in a bad accident, as I quickly look away, the road seem to lead to no where, the bus was pack with people, there were children crying, people laughing, people reading, and me just being bored, my parent had plan for me to go to Paris and visit my aunt Lulu, who was a wealthy lady, and stay with her for a couple of weeks, this would be my fourth time to see her this year.

As the bus driver announce to every one that we would arrive to Paris in about 15 minutes, "boy was i glad," we were almost there, because it seem that it was taking centuries. As the bus finally arrive my aunt rush towards me and squint, taking a better view of me, she just turn and told her limousine driver to carry my bags to the car, I hated when she did that not even welcoming me, she would just take a look at me and walk away.

We got in the car and drove away, we went to her house and pass by a garden full of beautiful smelling roses, then out of no were my immature childhood, crept into me, my aunt Lulu gave me a look that made me scare. We arrived at her fancy house and "boy it was gorgeous," by credentials of my aunt she was one of the wealthiest lady in the whole town, i was just happy to be related to her so that when she died she leaves me something cool.
