My Family!!

I'm going to talk about my family abt to you. My family is the most important thing to me in the whole world and I wouldn't be who I am today without them. First off we will start with my parents. Lars, my dad is an amazing man and I have learned so much from him. His is a DJ and runs his own business. He usually DJ's on weekends at local bars and also he does a lot of weddings in the summer. My dad was a diabetic his whole childhood and by the time he was in his twenty's he had to have a transplant there was no way he would survive without it. So being a transplant patient he was luckily choosen o DJ a transplant picnic. He told me it was amazing to see and meet all these people just like him. But my dad has a lot more to him than that he has been my rock throughout my whole life and i don't know what i would do without him. My mother and him decided to divorce when i was about 13 years old and I stayed with my dad and we both leaned on each other for support throughout these hard times. He and I both know if we need to talk or even vent to anyone its gotta be to each other. The next person in my family I'm going to talk about is my grandma Ros. Grandma Ros is my dads mother and I understand from her how my family is so close. She is always there with open arms no matter what the situation be. My grandma is a reading teacher at West Salem Elementary. Which only fits her well because she loves i mean loves to read. When I was a young girl I remember I would pick out books and my grandma would read them to me one after another. The next two people that are really important to me are my uncle Erik and my aunt Cindy. Erik is my dads brother. Those two have been there for me for everything. They also have two little girls that are pretty much like my sisters since I'm an only child. My dad ,myself, and their family spend so much time together on week nights we will just go over to there house and stay all night just watching TV. As you can tell we are so close and I don't know what I would do with out them!!

aaaaaa.....Finally Done!

So this week I had to give my first speech. I was more than nervous, I was terrified. The speech we had to do was on one of our classmates and luckily my best friend was in the class with me. My speeches info and size was not lacking at all I knew a lot about her, Miranda and I have best friends every since I can remember. The thing that scared me the most was the whole getting up in front of the class thing....YIKES. So the whole week before this speech was due I'm writing my note cards and memorizing what I'm going to say and still I went to class that day very nervous. The day finally came I walk into class and I think the whole world can see the fear on my face. I was especially scared because I have never had a speech class I never took it in high school. Well back to when i walked into the room, I sit down at my computer start looking over my note cards and my teacher says we will be starting at the end of the alphabet. I panic, WHAT? WAIT? My last name starts with a W. Luckily two people decided they would offer to go first. Once those two were done no one wanted to go so we started right there at the end of the alphabet and guess who was first, yes its me. I get up there stand in front of everyone and take one more big breath and away i went. Before i knew it i was done, I was so relieved. After all that time i spent worrying about it and preparing I did I was done. Once I gave my speech and seen others give theirs I realized I don't have to worry so much, it all turned out just fine.
