«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 658 Newer› Newest»wow this is a new record over 400 comments. reminder i will proof some peoples papers if you ask
How should I set up the page number on my broshure? and my broshure in general if I'm doing a journal type thing?
ill chack in in about 10 minutes or so
I just double spaced my interview and it is 6 pages! Alot of it is dead space, like lines between sentences. Is it Ok because of that? OR should I get rid of them which would make it kind of run together?
Yeah, I had the same problem.
I just left it at 5 pages.
Mrs. P wanted it double spaced, so that's what she's getting.
so yeah i have been thinking all day of a story to put as my lead and I just cannot do it. I don't see like how exactly or wht story to pick. nor how to tell it.
Well this is what I mean
Kevin-sdkfjas
O'Brian-asdfaaaaaaaaaaaasdfsdfasdfsdf
sdfa
Kevin-sdaf
or should I after O'Brians line skip a extra line so it is easier to read or should I let it run together to save space?
Drummerdude66,CNN, good luck proof reading mine. Luckily instead of 9 pages, I trimmed it down to 5.
Michelle: ok so pick one of the things you carry and go into detail about it. Like for me i chose my Ipod and I went into how my mom always yells at me to turn it down, and other stuff. Like you could say where you got it or who gave it to you.
ok tyler i look foward to the challenge
See like the problem that keeps coming up with me is that I either want to incoorporate sports or my childishness into it but i cannot think of like an acrtual story. All i can think of is the description
Like i can say i carry my phone everywhere and my parents think i text too much but what would that have anything to do about my personality
Kevin, never try to save space, even if it makes sense. Try to space it out as much as possible. I tried to save space on one of perrin's papers once, and lets just say I'm never going to do that ever again as long as I live. Not even on another teacher. So if there is a possibility to space it out more, do so. Try not to test your luck with mrs. perrin
Michelle, try and think of a specific time in a sport that you were the hero and everyone loved you for it, or like a time when you were escecially childish, and your parents might have taken it away and you got angry, or idk. Were somewhat trying to impersonate o'brain (If that is his real name) who isn't exactly the most truthful person so yours can be a little fibby. (or completely made up)
Michel said: Like i can say i carry my phone everywhere and my parents think i text too much but what would that have anything to do about my personality
It can say a lot of things about your personality. Think about why you are texting. Is it because you like to be social... or for different reasons?
Just a random comment, a lot of people are posting on here just to help people out, but I'm just doing it so mrs. perrin freaks out when her inbox is filled with 500 messages that people commented her blog.
Tyler: I proofed your essay and it was pretty good. I liked how your entire essay was a story. However i didnt see too many physical things that you carry. I saw the mention of your cell phone, but i was surprised that you didnt mention your guitar or something else. ohter than that it seemed ok
(also if you ever need another opening band talk to me but ill need notice because most of my band lives in medina)
If anyone else needs me to proof anything just email it to me and ill give it a look in about ten or so minutes
lol tyler you are absolutely right
Thank you guys soo much! I love you Tyler and Greg ( not sure if i know who you are greg but i love ya!) It actually really did help! :)
Thanks perkins, the thing is, I don't carry my guitar everywhere I go, that why I didn't include it. although, that day I did carry it now that I look back at It. I'll be sure to keep you in mind for an opening band. Im sure your better than copy cat crisis.
Your welcome Michelle! Thanks greg!
So yeah i have a lead that i don't really know if its a story. My friend thinks it a story but i feel like i am just ranting because I cannot think of like the perfect story to go in it...
hey how do we do the format? idk wat that even is??
Tony said:hey how do we do the format? idk wat that even is??
Tony, we use standard MLA format which is upper right hand corner (header) this should include name, date, teacher, and period. You do not need this for all the pages though only for the prologue and maybe the first page.
sweet i had that question too! well like about where to put it! thanks again greg!
Lol, try not to rush it michelle. Lol you still have like 10 and a half hours till it's due. Hmmm...sometimes it helps me to do the story first then the lead and conclution, but if you can get a good lead right off the bat your home free. Could you post it?
Tyler: yeah i think i might be, also i know what you mean about ron, has he actually come through with anything?
Greg: hey greg what is this, like your first post? welcome to the blog
anytime
so greg r u done yet?
Well so what if it is =P i mean really if you look at my full name you could guess it (full name is "gregneedshelponprojects")
thx for the welcome perkins
I know we don't need to formally cite The Things They Carried, but when we quote it do we need to put page numbers?
No i'd say not even close still got 2 to do and the rest to perfect
sure so what kind of help do you need?
Emily i dont think we do, but i would just play it safe and do it anyway
well first off I cant find my book so most of the stuff i use is off of what i can remember or what i can find online
Emily: i dont think so, remember in class she said we dont need to cite it, and i think she even said we dont need page numbers
alright so here is like the begining i guess? I feel like i am ranting and not telling a story like we are supposed to. I don't know what to do and am just listening to tyler because he said post it. if u can help great if not oh well :)
Everything I carry revolves around my crazy personality. I am a fourteen year old who is a freshman at Brunswick High School. Although, most the time, people do not get the chance to see the real me, instead they see a complete different person. People need to dive deeper if they want to fully understand me. It is like I am wearing a mask over the real me. In school, I act relatively shy and quiet, but anywhere else, the beast is unleashed. I am actually a five-year-old trapped in a teenager’s body. I am crazy little kid that gets entertained with the smallest things. I also have the tendency to freak a lot and worry about literally everything. For example, I am always replaying situations in my head thinking about what I could have and should have done. Luckily to get me away from continuously replaying circumstances in my head, I get distracted easily. When I get distracted I do not finish my thoughts, nor do I remember I was even talking. Because of all of that, I need to carry a couple specifics.
Prologue????? What is that???
to all of those people still needing quotes from the book, this site is an index for anyhting you need (pg # and what not)
http://www.brtom.org/tttc/tttc1.html
tony chill. the prologue is the letter of reflection tellin the reader how to read the project, background of it and what you learned about yourself as a writr and student. you mght also want to add what grade you think you deserve just to be safe.
Michelle, honestly that is a very good lead. You set it up perfectly. Now, I'm just curious to see where you go from there. Good start though.
-Tyler
Tony don't freak out it is just the same thing as the reflective letter that you did for the research paper but for this project instead
Michelle i thought your lead was very good
does anyone else need anything proofed?
awww thank you tyler! I was kinda freakin out a bit on it and it was fine all along. jeez. I was just kinda afraid because it didn't sound like a story lol and also thank you very much perkins!
I'm going to be rocking this blog all night. Who wants to stay up w/ me?
most likely i am. lol and i wanna see how mad perrin gets when there are like a million posts about nothing
are you really stayin up all night???
i doubt i will. i had to get up early all weekend and im really tired. I think im gonna go to bed soon. so if anyone wanted to have me proof anything you missed your chance unless you post in the next two minutes or so.
I'm gunna try to stick it out. My parents wont be too happy, but it will some what be for my project.
c'mon lets try to get over 500
Ahh somebody give me a third opinion I have one "yes, put page numbers" and one "I don't think so". What is everybody else doing??
WOOO! we are almost at 500!! :) tyler we should get some mountain dew and make this a party!!
well Perkins is exausted so hes gonna hit the sack. I bet when i log on tommorow morning there will be like 1000 posts or something
can anyone tell me some of the things to do in group 2?
Michelle: you forgot manly in your lead lol jk. And, YOU ARE NOT QUIET. Are you stupid?? lol jk jk. It was a good lead.
Anyone: I understand what to do for the prolouge, but I don't understand how. Could I read somebody else's and see what they put just for ideas? *THIS IS NOT CHEATING*
Greg: Newspaper article, magazine article, pamphlet, manual, brochure, encyclopedia article. That's it.
lol just for you i will add manly. ha. "Michelle you have no say in this, your manly!" "I know I am!""what? you don't just agree with someone that your manly!" ahhahahahah!
thank you
srry cant help you on that letter. i still need to write mine =/
yeahh cant help you on the letter either. still working on the actual project! :/ besides im too manly lol
Yep no prob.
Michelle: thanks. =)
OH. And if anybody wants to see my video on war becuase it's awesome, here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQeTis3aKU4&feature=channel_page
I know it's lame and concieted but I watch it every time I lose inspiration lol.
We only need to put the header thing whatev on the first page, right? The:
Emily Dushek
Language arts/ period 1
Mrs. Perrin
18 May 2009
thing?
I'm pretty sure that's what she said but I'm just double checking. And we number the thing as a whole, right? Becuase mine is 17 pages lol.
heyy guys! question: for the things i carry, do we need to use seperate paragraphs for each item or what?
Emily: I wouldn't because not many genres do that, matters which genre you are doing :)
Michelle: Your lead is fine but you are talking to the reader/ audience don't do that, just state the facts.
OH YEAH, done with the enitre writing part, OH YEAH, uh huh! And, I was in Canada all weekend. OH YEAH.
Would somebody please respond I feel lame just typing comment after comment all by myself.
James bond movie has ended so I'm going to sleep, I have a test tomoorw!
yo daisy. its kinda hard not to tslk to the reader though because personally i don't talk to myself about the things i carry
thanks emily i don't count??
heyy guys! question: for the things i carry, do we need to use seperate paragraphs for each item or what?
Im having a huge problem. I am trying to upload it to a blog, and first the picture is not working right and it is messing everything else up. Second The pages are not numbering. HELP PLEASE!
In my opinion she not really talking to the reader, she TELLING the reader what she thinks her personality includes
leanne, what i did was for the really important ones i gave them their own separate paragraph while for ones that had very little about them or had to do with a certain topic (like a bunch of ones dealing with school or etc) i bunched them in one paragraph. hope this helps!
does anyone want to answer my question!
ha yay someone is on my side! lol
kevin:are you uploading or pasting it cuz whichever you are usuing just try the other
thanks michelle. =)
Leanne: look in the book to see how O'brien does it, it is suposed to be an imitation piece so just use w/e he does
MIchelle: You do count, though you are a tad manly, lol.
Leanne: What I did was put things that flow in the same paragraph and then start a new paragraph with something totally random.
Kevin: What are you even talking about?
Daisy: What? And, goodnight. =)
ooh any time leanne lol
Greg I tried both and neither are working and that still leaves my # problem. Should I just post it as is. And email her a verison that isnt messed up becouse this is beyond my control here?
Upload what you can, it would be better that way so she takes that grade instead of a late one, im sure she will understand if you just talk to her a/b it
she prob won't count against u
greg how much more of your project do you still need to do??
may be off topic but im starting to really hate those little words you have to type to send ur post!!
Well so far completely done w/ 2 but all of them are close to being finished, kindive...
ha that's alright. I'm only 100% done with three of them. and kinda close to being done with my things i carry essay. Just gotta write about basketball and a couple other things.. i think...
Gregg im proly gonna rock this blog site all night wit u but first i need to know how many pictures can we use for the photo thing about change???
Alright now I am getting a HTML error message. Did any one else get this?
kevin: no im sorry you are beyond any help i can give
Tony:if you are doing the take a photo one then only use one, if you want to use more then just make a collage of more pictures
wait kevin what are you trying to do?
tyler i thought you were rockin the blog with us?!?
tyler isnt even gonna be here for the 500th comment
aww dude! tyler get your butt on here! i would call you but then i would feel like a creeper! we are gunna get 500 with out you so nah nah nah nah boo boo!
I am trying to put it on a blog. I have it as one huge word doc. When I try to cut and paste it the graph doesn't work and it wont work if I upload it either. The Page numbering wont work and I am having problems with the HTML. Does any one besides Greg think I am ok, if I upload it even though it isnt right and I just email the part that is working right?
ok i think im just gonna draw one pic... but if you suck like really bad at drawing can you have your sister draw something for you and you tell her how to draw it and everything?
yeahh kevin I think you should do that. It isn't your fault if it doesn't work right and mrs. p will understand
three more comments
Wow I don't know wheather I should feel special or totally lame becuase I will be here for number 500. ...
P.s. Michelle, I totally hate those letter things too. There should be a thing where you can turn them off after you've done it a thousand times like we have lol.
o btw this whole blog thing was my idea ;) i told mrs. p that she should set a blog up for the ppl that have q's but thanks for setting it up mrs. p
uh tony that's kinda cheating. It's your project and mrs. p would prbly rather have a sucky drawing by you then an amazing one that you made your sister do. You can always have your sister like scetch one up and you just draw basically the same thing.
hahahahahaha score i was the 500th commentor!!!!!
Tony: She'd count that as cheeting and you know it. Just do it yourself, it wont matter if it's really bad as long as you still know what it is and it still portrays what you want it too. You need to write a paper on your drawing anyways, so just draw it as best as you can and it'll be fine.
well thank you tony. haha and emily we should be able to they are driving me nuts and i didn;t know if i was the only one getting annoyed with them or not lol
happy 500
k thanks michelle but what if i just traced over hers?? still cheating?? well i want to do this one where like i draw this normal kid but when the sun hits him his shadow comes out and the shadow is like holding a gun or something but the whole thing is that i can only draw stick figures cuz i completely blow at drawing... like seriously
wow emily i just looked at what you said and that actually made me laugh... but im feeling more on the lame side :(
Tony: I think you just drawing it would work best and I think that that's a super cool idea. Like mega.
OH dear I'm getting soo nervous I've been done with the writing for a while and I don't want to print it becuase what if it's screwed up but I can't just not print it ohhhh dearrrrr.
How is everybody else going to put it all together once it's done?
Scrapbook (well binder only in a prettier way) i'm not talented enough to do anything else :)
I drew this normal kid just sitting back, because this is his personality. The sun represents the Vietnam War and it is impaling the boy with exposure. This is exactly what happened to the guys at Nam. Then when the sun is hitting the boy his shadow a.k.a. his second personality just explodes and goes on a rampage, his second personality goes insane. This is how O’Brien shows change in the book. He shows how the normal people that were there were fine, until exposed to true war and than they start to lose it, which is what the little boy is doing.
That was my paragraph im putting under the pic!!! o and im done im just gonna throw it into a binder and put some super ultra deluxe mega bright violet omega gamma rays of colors in it and call it a scrapbook im shooting for an A but i think im gonna wind up with a B or a C i did really strong in my poem and my things i carry essay
is anyone still posting? i feel like a loner.
that's really good tony!!
Yeah I'm just doing a binder... I'm using construction paper to separate the things... I don't know how to make it any more creative though, which is odd becuase I'm a pretty creative person...
Should I put the names of each catagory on the construction paper, or the title or the thing, or...???
Wow Tony I never knew you were like... deep. The only thing I would change is saying Vietnam instead of Nam becuase Nam is more of a casual nickname thing and Vietnam is more proper. Can I read your poem? I did one too, only I did it for change.
Michelle: I'll be up for a while trying to get the balls to print and then putting it together lol.
lol I have writers block atm... been staring at the computer for 10 minutes and i wrote 1 sentence that makes no sense >.<
lol you already know i have the balls to print it lol c'mon. be like me. it's alright to be manly sometimes! (wow sounding like dr. phil here!)
ooh wow greg that is not good.
just want to get an idea, how many pages are your guy's
things i carried
Michelle: I do not have balls.
Greg: Try distracting yourself for ten or fifteen minutes, just watch TV or listen to music or text somebody. Then try again. That happens to me all the time when I try to focus too hard on something.
Lol my word verifictaion thing is noggen this time. That's a funny word. Noggen.
like how many pages total or for one topic?
i know you do not. niether do i. Maybe you should grow some.
haha noggen. i had a really funny one but i forgot it!
ill try that
btw its the thing i carry essay i need to kno
Greg: My the things I carried is 4, my vid response is 3, my poem is 1, my character article is 5, and my survey response is 3, which makes up 16, plus one end-notes page for 17 total.
mine is like 4 or 5 i don;t know i am not completely done with it yet. and emily..what do you use endnoted for? Like what section would you need to get extra information on?
wow. are you guys really staying up all night. you'll be dead tomorrow =) get a good nihgts rest...=)
Michelle: For my poem my first line I quoted Fall Out Boy and I had to cite it because it is copywrited.
ooh i understand. I just didn't get that before lol
thank you for all that
An end is finally coming to my the things i carry essay...how do i end it?
(Rambling) I feel lonely. I wish other people were awake doing this. I feel unprepared. I hate feeling unprepared. But, can you blame me? I was in Canada! And, I still got the parts that weren't done finished. Now I'm going to print it soon...
Just like, sum it all up all powerful like.
michelle: in the rubric it says to not state the same thing you had said in the begining of the essay so stay away from that. maybe go over the way the items change you make sure you make it creative though
sum it up all powerful like? huh???i just mentioned everything i carried in my essay
alright ill try tht. thanks greg
oh dang! how do you vary the sentence beginnings? most of mine say i carry....
start off by telling a story, it doesn't take much effort, just a little change in order.
example : I carry a phone because i always want to talk to someone.
switch it up to something like...
i love talking to people, i just get so excited when i have a good conversation going which is why one of the things i carry is my phone
oooh your good! Ha
Well, becuase it is immitation and that's how O'Brien starts most of his, that's what I did too. For everything else I know we need sentence variation, but because we have to do immitation, I don't think it can count against us that we're writing in the same style as O'Brien lol.
srry to ruin it but you do actualy need varried sentences look at #3 in the body section of the rubric
i really think i should have looked at the rubric a little before i believed i was done with this section!
my word is tashai! its fun to say it out loud! try it! TASHAI!
Greg you are freaking me out. I used "I carry" 55 times in my 4 page essay. I tried to change some of them but most of them I really can't! Oh dear!
Okay, which rubric are you guys even looking at becuase I totally believe you and everything but I can't find where it says vary sentences. Like, I know we need to and all, I just can't find it. I only have the rubric for where it says each thing we need to do to get whichever grade. And on the back it shows the steps to a hero journey. Waaahhhhhhhh.
>.<
we are looking at the the things they carried rubric. the front says the things you carry and your assignment and steps and the back is the rubric
OH! Found it! Thanks Michelle!!!
no problem!
wow writers block on the conclusion.
hahahahahahaha My word to post the comment is shipabig! i dont know why but i think that is funny. shipabig.
lol that is a pretty good word
just noticed we broke 550 =[)
word post is yawsecal?
hmmm...
Almost finished ;) getting sluggish though
Im still in this..............kjjdnasgdgf ow. head hurts, lol jk. What do you think for my ad: Vietnam war: now with 25% more agent orange!
Shipabig. Shipapig. Ship a pig. To africa. And let it run free!
Wow Greg I kinda hated you for a few seconds just now but thanks for pointing that out for me. BUT NOT IM NOT DONE. Grrrrr. But, everything else is PRINTED! WHOO!

Tyler
Why did you use so many r's??
lol wow i missed alot
Yeah, I've been "officially" done since 10:30, I kinda was done at around 5, but just before I went to print I found that my The Things I Carry was soo not varied and now I'm frusterated and mad that I have to redo it. I'm so wired. I ate an entire pack of Sour Ice Breaker mints. My tongue burns.
omg those things are amazing. lol im eating some dessert my mommy made. lol she shudnt have left it out knowing im the only one awake
my post word: coolit
I am typing in the dark, well, was typing in the dark. The light above hurts my eyes! But, yeah, I need to vary the things I carry a bit more to.
How about if something is cool, instead of cool its like kablamo! I sould youse that in my essay and see what mrs perrin does
i jusst got done doing that.now i still need to think of a conclusion
kablamo sounds more like a sweet explosion... KABLAMO!
Omg just noticed... out of paper, i better be able to find some
oh my gosh i would be sooooooo mad if i ran outta paper!
I would cry if I ran out of paper. I'm almost crying right now because I've been staring at a computer screen all day and I slept with my contacts in for two nights in a row. Danggggg.

The Things I Carry
I sat in class with my eyes closed and my palms facing up, breathing deeply trying to de-stress myself, at least for a little while. I could hear some stupid kids across the room snickering and making fun of me. I shoved some awful thoughts out of my head. I did my best to ignore them as I resumed a regular position to watch and listen to the teacher’s lesson. I tried to focus on the material, instead of the weight of everything in my life crashing all around me.
The things I carry are usually things that either I or somebody else uses every day, or every other day. I carry things I care about, things that are necessary, and things I like. I am lost without my cell phone, I carry it always. It is my clock, my calendar, my calculator, my connection to people, especially my very best friend who lives in Tennessee. It keeps me organized and on track and in step. It is my alarm and my reminder. It is small and fits in my pocket, weighs about two ounces. I have 20/180 vision, so the eye glasses I carry are a necessity. I have contacts too, but usually I wear my glasses. They are plastic framed and a reddish-maroon color. I like to wear the contact lenses though, because I also carry sunglasses. I love wearing them when it is sunny because my eyes sunburn somewhat easily, plus they are super cute.
I absolutely adore shoes, I have many pairs and I love them all; I am a shoe-aholic. I have work-out shoes, regular skate shoes, moccasins, fancy flats, casual flats, flip-flops, and various high-heels that I wear on special occasions. It does not matter to me what my shoes weigh because I can barely feel them on my feet. I carry clothes because it is a necessity. I almost always carry a hoodie because I am insecure about myself and feel more comfortable wearing one, the weight varies from 8 ounces to 23 ounces. I carry a love for fashion and a harsh criticizing voice that nobody ever gets to hear because it is mean. I carry a meanness always, because I have a lot of hate inside, though I suppress it as much as possible. My struggle to always suppress the hate and meanness is difficult to have to carry all the time, but I do. That does not weigh anything physically, but it seems to be very heavy to me sometimes.
I love music intensely, so I always carry my iPod which weighs 2. I wear black nail-polish and carry the image that follows it. I my ears are both triple pierces and I usually have earrings in them. Unfortunately, I also have a slight allergy for nickel, which hinders me from wearing a good deal of the earrings I own. I wear other jewelry too, sometimes. Jewelry that I have made myself, has been made for me, or some that I have bought, jewelry that carries meaning or value to me. I carry hair bands on my wrists if I need to put my hair up, or if somebody else does. I am very self conscious, which is why I wear makeup on my face, concealer and eyeliner and sometimes mascara.
I carry a book bag that weighs around ten pounds fully loaded with a folder for each of my six classes, a spiral notebook for each class, and full binders for two of those classes. I love reading so I carry a reading book incase I get bored or have spare time during the school day which the weight varies on but is never too much. I carry a reputation and good grades and high standards, I carry the fear of being unprepared, all of which weigh nothing physically, but can hold a lot of pressure over me.
I carry a purse that only weighs about a pound full but I carry many things inside that I love or need. Inside among other items is a schedule that I try my hardest to write down everything I need to do inside, my iPod, which I would be so lost without and if I don’t have pockets on my outfit any day my phone. Also inside my purse is a comb and a hand mirror incase I or somebody else ever needs to see what they look like or fix their hair, and a calculator for math class, but I sometimes use it for other things too which is why I put it in my purse and not my book bag. I carry Band-aids and scissors and sunglasses. I carry women supplies for “that time of the month”. I carry pencils, usually, because I lose them always so I like to have back-ups. I carry a tooth brush and tooth paste; I have braces on my teeth and the expectation of taking them off every time I go to the orthodontist’s office. I am a random person, so I carry some randoms things with me such as a button and a yellow highlighter and an orange high lighter and a key ring that has my house key, a jump drive, a library card, a Tech Deck with no wheels, and a keychain that I acquired at a church retreat to remind me that Jesus is always with me on it.
I carry deep emotions and thoughts. I carry anger at myself, at the world, and at little things that go wrong. I carry happiness that I am alive and have a great life. I carry sadness of the world and the sorry shape it is in. I am a very fearful person and I have a lot of fears that I carry with me all of the time. I carry the fear of failure which is called atychiphobia or kakorrhaphiophobia and being unprepared which has no scientific name and some bugs which is called insectophobia but you cannot say I have insectophobia because I am not afraid of all bugs only big ones or scary ones like centipedes which is called chilopodophobia. I also carry the fear of paper cuts which is called pulpuslacerataphobia and getting on and off of busses which is a very unusual fear that I do not know where it stemmed from and also the fear of losing things, both of which do not have scientific names.
I carry good grades and a 4.2 GPA. Though it is strange, especially for a teenage girl, I carry a desire to know things and to learn things and a liking for taking notes as I am a visual learner. Also I have a drive for perfection which couples with my fear of failure and fear of being unprepared. I love acting and the theatre which I often convey in my personality. I carry a desire to be involved, to be accepted, to be known and wanted. That possesses so much power over me, if it were a person it could rule the entire universe. I also contradict that desire in the sense that I never feel wanted or accepted, though I know that is not true.
I carry myself, my being, and all that makes me. I possess physical things and emotional things but I hardly ever think about the weight of anything, besides my book bag which can get heavy sometimes and the weight of my body which I am so very unhappy about, the weight of my discontent outweighs all of the physical and emotional things I carry combined. I carry plans for the future, plans to fix things I am not happy about plans to do more of things I like doing. I have a good life and good stories and good family and good friends. I carry smiles. I portray hope, because I am young and the children are the future. I carry the future and all it holds, which can be very, very heavy sometimes. Though I carry a lot of things and sometimes they can be almost too much, I love all the things I carry because they make me who I am.
