its raining men

i love to watch tv. i really really enjoy many of the tv shows that are shown on the television today. i watch way too much tv. i know that and i except that. i just cant help it. it is way too amazing. i mean you can watch tv while doing other things, such as drawing, your homework, or even reading (on the commercials or at the boring parts of the show). on monday, i watch gossip girl, tuesday, i watch ncis, the mentalist, and american idol, wednesday, i watch America's next top model and american idol, thursday, i watch bones and the offic, and on friday i watch psyc. however, everyday, on usa, ncis is on for three hours in a row and i occasionally see the episodes that i missed.

my family

i have a very close nit family. we do a lot together. my mother and i enjoy seeing movies together. we pretty much have the same taste in movies so we usually go see a movie every two weeks or so. y brother is 20. he is very nice to me. he helps me when i ask him, except if it has to do with school because he is not the greatest person to ask about that sort of thing. however, my sister is a good person to ask about school things. even so, she does not exactly help f i ask. she is more a person to talk to about other things, but i don't really like talking to her because she isn't a very good listener. sooooo that's my family.

my service project

during the past summer, i volunteered at st. marks school. my friend, heather, and i watched after three to twelve year olds. we helped the moderators teach the children for a half and hour. i also helped the children when they asked for it. from teaching one girl to ride a two wheeler to building a block tower to reading stories after lunch. i finished over one hundred and fifty hours. i worked every monday, wednesday, and friday from seven o'clock in the morning to two forty-five in the afternoon. i enjoyed this experience of helping the young children.

lent

lent is a very special time in our church. i will be truthfully honest. my lenten sacrafices did not work out so well for me. at first i gave up something, when that did not work i gave something else up, when that did not work, however, i dropped the giving stuff up thing and decideed to go for a different angle. what did i decide to do? i decided to be nice to someone. yes i know and understand how pethetic that sounds, being nice to someone. i mean how difficult can that be. well for your information IT IS HARD. no joke. i am having a hard time. however, it has gotten easier. you see, i realized that when your nice to someone who, say, is not very nice to you, they end up being nicer to you. now my being nice to this person is going well and i am proud of myself.
