Impressions of Emma

I entered a writing contest today. and holy moly I am nervous!  Especially after reading my entry, because I saw thing i want to change but I've already sent it in! i will give you the story exactly like it was when i sent it in though  I really want to get 3rd place or an honorable mention , ( there is no way i can get 2nd or 1st ) I have never had my writing judged by real judges before so i am kinda dying. But I think my storey is good.       Anyway, here is the link to the monday minute challenge, you guys should enter! Okay, so they give you things you have to incorporate in your story, you can use one, or all of them, but you have to have at least one in your story. I only used one, a mirror. My submission is 225 words Revealing Reflection        In its reflection, I saw myself as I really was. I remembered as I looked at my myself now, how I used to feel when I looked into a mirror, I was always left dissatisfied, and hurt. “...

Heyo! Here are the links to the play I was in! There are two nights, I am in both nights, but they have two people playing some of the girl characters, so thats why i am giving you links to both nights!        I'm so sad it's over! Putting my script away was harder than ever before. I actually put it off for a few days. I love taking it out and looking at everyone's signatures. You see, after every play we all sign scripts. It's one of my favorite parts about being in a play. I love it when the directors write little notes when they sign your script! I just LOVE acting! This year I had the most lines i've ever had! I guess that why it was harder to put m y script away!?!?!! Anywho, this play is long, but you should watch all of it!  Please do!  Of course not both ( unless you want to) But watch one to the every ending of curtain call! There are so many cool dances and even singing! It's so worth watching! Saturday night: https://www.youtube.com/w...

      Whoever is still reading my blog after i haven't posted in months, i thank you so muchly! So, idk what to post about really, i just felt it was time to start blogging again! well, i guess i could talk about what's going on in my life right now, lol!         My sister Gabi is leaving in 4 days, on september 6th to go to a formation house called ' Mater Redemptoris House of Formation ' while there she will have a whole month home for Christmas vacation. After a year there she will stay home for one summer and then join the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne. We are so happy for her but we'll miss her a ton! Its so cool to know that i'll have a sister who is, well, a sister! xD It makes me wonder what the rest of us will do.       Other than that, my brother and sister ( Noah and Bethany )  are at college, freshmen year. So once Gabi is is gone, I'll be the oldest girl at home, with only two older siblings at home, one working a...

This is my quote of the week! It's really true! Especially right now!                          

Doing simple, little, easy,and nice things can make a world of difference to your life and others. And sometimes we all need a  reminder to do the 'little' things. Because, really, they  aren't that little. Sometimes the things that make us feel the happiest and most loved are the small things people say or do for you. So here is a list of 'little things' you can do around the home and in public paces. (1) If you notice someone looking nice, or singing beautifully, or drawing a pretty picture, tell them. Maybe that person you just complimented really wasn't having a  good day,and your nice words may have made them feel so much better. Words have a lot of impact. (2) If you're at a restaurant, and your waiter really isn't being the nicest they could be, don't be mean or unpleasant back. You have no idea what's going on in there life, Who knows? Spread positivity and you'll find lots more positivity around you. (3) Offer to make a tea fo...

            You know what makes me happy? We have these sunflower seeds that we got for the chickens we have. Sometimes I take a handful and throw them around the yard near the window beside the spot where I do almost all my school, that way birds will come and eat the seeds. So when I look out my window during school hours I sometimes see 1 to 8( or some, idk xD) birds there, and it's so lovely.they are so brightly colored, and sometimes they sing.       I wish I could whistle like a bird, one of my many brothers can whistle a lot like a mourning dove. Anyway, the birds just kind of fill me with happiness and peace.and if I look up from the ground I see the  neighbors yard. It looks so beautiful with all the new, freshly colored leaves and the flowers blooming there. it's all just too wonderful. Spring is an amazing thing.      Isn't it nice that God has made so many beautiful things for us to enjoy? Imagine a world wit...

Hey friends, I'm alive, even though I did seem to have fallen off the face of the earth! ( if you want to see what I've been doing since you last heard from me, cheek here https://the3musketeerssite.wordpress.com/ )  Okay, I feel so so bad! I haven't posted since November 3rd. I promised that I would keep posting, and I didn't. But I am going to try my best to start posting way more! To help me with that, I have made a schedule. I find that having a deadline really helps me get things done, even if I'm rushing the day before, I usually get my blog posts finished. Anywho, My new schedule will be On Mondays, and whenever a really good idea pops into my head! For my next post, I think I'll share some poems I've written! See ya in a week! Have a great day, week, month, year and life! Love,    ~Emma
