Writing

Writing to me is very complicated. Starting in freshman year my writing was very bland. I never added to much detail and would jump around from thought to thought. I now have learned to add much more detail but I still tend to jump around in topics. Writing is so complicated to me because I have so many thoughts in my mind and then trying to put them all on the page just becomes a jumbled mess. I have found that the toughest part of the writing process would be for sure the editing. Once again I know what I'm saying in my mind so I think that everybody else knows whats going on when in reality it makes no sense. “Be yourself. Above all, let who you are, what you are, what you believe, shine through every sentence you write, every piece you finish.” John Jakes

Hero


When I think of a hero alot of ideas come to mind.Their are countless people that come to mind that I greatly appreciate in my life and that i look to for insperation but when it comes down to it one person has made the greatest impact on my 17 years of living. Allie Riffle has become more than a good quality friend to me. Allie is a hero to me because when I'm in the process of making a decision I think to myself what would Captain Riffle do? Allie always has good intentions in life and stands her ground. She is like the strait and narrow path that i tend to wander off but she always brings me right back. In highschool everybody always loves their friends but to me Allie is more like family because we have such an enourmous comfort level and respect and trust we for each other. She isn't scared to tell me i'm being a big stupid but she is always there for me at the end of the day when I don't follow her advice. She takes me as I am and understands my views and can make me laugh so much. She is such a hero to me and i respect her so much that it keeps me improving myself and making the right decions.This makes a hero to me beacuse she has made such a positive impact on my life I know that i would not be the healthy happy person if she wasn't in my life.

My name is Maria Lucking. I like to do lots of hobbies and activities. I play laccrosse its a good time but i'm not very talented with the game. I am a big fan of the wilderness and am very fond of adventuring through it. I enjoying going to the library and i typically can't stand reading unless its nonfictional. Fellowship with my friends is my favorite thing to do and just in general having a good time. I recently purchased a 2004 Jeep Wrangler. It took me four years to get the money for it and I love the car. I work at Subway, I really can't complain much about it, I eat cookies and make people their sandwhiches. I look forward to summer all year and it is for sure my favorite time of the year. Going to concerts is up there in my top three favorite things to do.
