the end of summer

well its that time of year again. thats right summers over and school begins. kinda makes me wish i was an adult now.

and what a perfect way to end summer with your car breaking down. now i have to take the bus. joy.

but my summer was fun. thanks to Lizz, Lisa and my cuzins i was able to have a fun time this year.

this is definetly going to be a summer im never going to forget. mainly because of my grandfather. he was a good man.

i enjoyed my summer even when i was having a tought time doing something (like finding Lisa's play.) i enjoyed hanging out with the Beaulieus this summer. i still think the whole justin bieber thing is funny (even if the cut out scared the life out of me)

so thank you guys for an amazing summer!



i hope this will be a fun school year. maybe not. i dont know.

and i am also looking forwards to going back to my orphanage soon. its been a while since ive been there.

good luck in school and have fun!

where is the love?

today i was listening to a song from the black eyed peas called where is the love, and it got me thinking

where is the love?

nowadays you see more things about violence, destruction and death than anything else. there are video games, tv shows movies and many more things that children read or watch and it ends up influincing them alot.

theres also the fact that no one is at peace. there is never a time when no one is fighting someone else. and when a war is in place, guess who gets punished the most. the people who are innocent and never wanted the war.

now how does that make you feel knowing that innocent kids are dying and getting killed just because our leaders are being stupid and hate each other.


why cant we get along? why cant we lay down our arms and become friends?

we are one in the same. that is to say we are all human. we all come from the same place. the only thing that makes us different is what we do in our lives. the only difference between me and a russian soldier is that i am not shooting innocent people. the difference between me and a rich japanese man, is probably that he is a father, other than that we are the same.


so ask yourself, where is the love? why cant we be friends? why cant we throw our weapons away?

why cant we love?


********for some positive part of this blog

this is the song that gave me the idea.

Dreams vs Reality

last night i had a dream. i was in the hospital before my grandfather passed. but this time he didnt die. insted he ended up getting better and survived. i thought this was real and had dreamed up his funeral. wish it was this way.

but anyway to get to the point.


dreams are things we want in life. what we want to do, wut to buy, how we want our lives to be. you could dream about anything and youd be happy. you could be owning half of a country, your favorite sports car ect. but these are just dreams.

reality is what actually happenes in your life. it may not go as planned at first but if you are persistant and motivated, you can end up living your dream.

everything is alot harder to do in reality, but its also fun to dream.
im not saying i dont wanna be a ninja (that would be awsome!!!) but nowadays we have to be practical.



so keep dreamimg and live life to the best you can.

and lets hope hurricane irene is a softie and dosent hurt anyone.

Visiting Years Past

So this weekend my family and I are going to Mt Washington to watch my uncle race up the moutain on a bike. And on our way home we are going to go to Storyland.

Its been a long time since ive been there. In truth, I cant wait to go there and go on all the rides. Last time I was there was with the orphanage I lived at.

Speaking of which im hoping to go there on memorial day. Its been so long since ive seen the nuns and the old building. Everytime I go there, i stop and take in memories that have been left there. And when I claim to go to the "bathroom" Im really walking down the halls to try to relive my ghost of christmas past. Ok maybe not Christmas past lol but the gost of past years if this makes any sense.

But the best part about the visits is making the kids that are currently living there, happy. I love seeing the joy on the faces of the younger kids as they steal the soccerball from me and make a goal. And also teasing some of the nuns about future things like my liscense. Which now im gunna show Sister Maxamilian and see if shes willing to go for a ride. Id love to see how she prepares herself for the ride.(Last time she wore hokey gear when driving with another kid)


This is gunna be a fun and interesting month.

Sincerely
A use to be orphane


****Annelise- about those Beatles items. my mom will only let me give them as a present. So ill give them to you on the day we go to the beach and kimballs. consider it as an early birthday gift.:P
and if your interested ill bring you to my orphanage on memorial day. theres gunna be a bbq and a 5k race i think.( but you dont have to race if you dont want to) :)

Sincerely your friend Dippindots.
oh and i just realized Dippindots is those sphere shaped icecream things lol

what to do when your bored in the car

a lot of peopl can easily get bored in the car on long road trips. but alas, i have some ideas to make it more interesting!

1) play the wave game. when your at a stop or stuck in traffic start waving to random people. best thing is if they wave back or have a confused look on their faces. and start a game to see who gets the most waves back.

2) if your driving a fun thing to do is pump the pedal to the beat of what ever song is playing. do the same with the brakes just for fun.

3) if your all alone on a long streach of road, honk the horn like crazy and if someone comes around the bend, wave inoccently.

4) sing along. sing to your favorite barney songs. ok maybe not barny but anything playing. and stuck your hands out the windows and wave to anyone you see.

5) multiple phone calls in the car. haha its fun to listen to other phone calls while your on one yourself. make jokes about the others in the car and see what reactions you get :)

6) just for kicks use your wipers on a sunny day and while driving in parking lots, change parking spots every few minutes.

i have done done all of these and many more but im drawing a blank on the others. and as i read number 6 it really isnt making sense to me.

sincerely
one who has tried all the above.


***for more fun

i learned the hard way not to try to turn around on a hill with a 3 wheeler. i ended up rolling it a couple times sideways and may have injured my leg. haha im happy you didnt get to see that Anneliese. :P

and also im thinking monday the 29th or tuseday the 30th for the beach and kimballs since school starts for me the 31st. :)

and have fun and be safe on your vacation/trip next week.

Sincerely Dippindots

That Perfect.....Scene

have you ever had that moment where everything seems...perfect?

where it feels like, well you died and went into your dream world.

well just today i was thinking about a snowmobiling trip i went on last year in vermont.

i was taking a sharp turn at a high rate of speed on a mountain when i found myself in a fairytale setting. all of the trees were perfectly covered with snow.the sun was showing crystal clear in just the right spots. there were some deer jumping around to my side and i was the only one there. my first reaction was, am i dead? i thought i had fallen off the mountain and died.

so i turned off my snowmobile and sat there for a few minutes listening to the chirping of birds the sound of deer and other animals running around, and just staring at the most perfect winter scene i had ever laid my eyes on.

to my surprise however, my grandfather came around the corner and scared all of the wildlife away. and of course my perfect scene came to an end.


**** for something that dosent have to do with this,
thanks again Anneliese for inviting me to go with you to boston. but unfortunatelly i was in laconia with no way to get home.

and i was wondering if you wanna hang out sometime next week. ill bring you to kimballs too. its on me :)

...

so i have been moody persone the last two days. why? because i asked someone out and was told no, again. so now i feel like a compleat idiot. one of my friends told me that she decided that she may go on a date with me then not 10 minutes later i got the official answer. i fell pretty stupid right now. at work we always listen to the radio and guess what type of songs were on today. thats right, anything that had to do with not being able to get a girl and how bad it was. this really dropped my mood. i was ready to throw the radio off the roof.

why is it girls only want to go out with only one guy. why dont they give others a chance? h\i may not know everything but i know enough to handle what ever is thrown at me. this is one of the things that still throw me off.

*****and of course i ended up feeling better after i listened to my favorite song. Live Your Life by T.I. and Rhianna. thank you guys for making this song.

My Most Prized Possesion

so today i had to clean my room because someone is comming to inspect the house. so i got to picking up whatever clothes and trash and other miscellanious things were in my room. then i noticed a shelf to my book case was dusty with some of my favorite cars on them. and one of those cars is my prized possesion.

why you ask. well its because ive had it as long as i can remember. it has to be at least 15 years old. ok its 21 years old. i just cheacked the bottom of it. but anyway, it was given to me by my foster brother dan when i was about three. how i managed to keep it all these years throughout the many moves and houses ive been to is still unknown. all i know is that its one toy car i hold above all other things. and now its dusted and proudly sitting on TOP of the book case between a 2006 camaro and a 2010 corvette stingray. now i just have to keep it shining.

No One Likes Bullies

So today on facebook i was looking at some comments on a picture i was tagged in and saw lots of jokes and stuff about it. But then i was reminded of one kid who seems to hate my guts for no reason.

In 8th grade i couldnt go one class without him saying mean things about me being adopted. I would come home and lock myself in my room and ponder over everything he said. Then came the day when i thought enough was enough and that i was going to say something about it. As it turned out i didnt say much but "shut up" and throw a book at him and walk out of class to the office. Not very mature now was it?

Now everychance he gets he trys to cyber bully me. And my replies are usually like this.

You know what _________, i am adoped. so if you dont like it just leave me alone because nothing you say will do anything to me. Im not stooping to your imature levels any more. im not going to say stupid things back to you or make rude remarks. Im too mature for that. When you feel like growing up maybe ill talk to you then. Until them stop picking on people.

so far its been a month since anything has come up with this kid. hopefully he did grow up and relized that bullying is wrong.

Furthermore i would like to say that i think bullying is immature and oviously very mean. So people stop being bullies!

And for a little more fun:
If you havent riden a bike in a month do not attempt a long bike ride on an up hill road. it will kill your legs. litterally!

and my arc fighter blew up. oh well :P

The Time Of year Everyone Dreads......School

So i just found out that school starts in a few weeks. My first reaction, NOOOOOO. Im not waking up early just to sit in a chair all day.

But i do have ideas on how to make school interesting.

1)drive in circles in the school parking lot.

2) do number one except backwards.

3) pass notes around saying random things so that when the teacher gets it, well make it funny.

4) make giant paper airplanes and throw them around the halls till you get yelled at. then do it again till the teacher rips it up.

5)Food Fight! (need i say more?)

6)Fall out of you chair randomly and frequently.

7) make a lightsaber out of markers or grab a ruler and have a sword fight.

8) play basketball with the trash bin and some paper or a plastic bottle.

9) in the gym, befor the teacher give attendence, jump onto the basketball hoop and sit on top scoring baskets with your feet.

and my favorite...

10) jumping off 3 story staging onto cushions. (warning dont get caught doing this. it will result in confusion of the teacher lol)

follow these 10 items and school may not be as boring.
