"My" Blank

Since I moved I’ve learned that I called everything in my old town, “my”, for example
My Library DPL
My Church UCD
My minister Elven
My Choir Director Jill
My Hometown
With moving, and being in limbo, I’ve been able to drop the My blank, I now say “My old minister Elven” etc, but I’ve only been able to replace one “my” in the new town, and that’s been the library, I now call WWPL “MY” Library. I was recently informed by the director of the library, that I talk less and less about DPL (my old library). In between my real life and the life I’ve been portraying in my story, I have written myself a four year contract as a volunteer to the library (even thou they don’t know it). Since I was entering H.S. I was debating if I should go back to school, and it ended up being between the Publc School, a Private school, and being homeschooled. One day in Kentucky on our way back home I called my mom, she said that she stopped at the library and talked to the director, and the director told my mom that she didn’t want to give me too much work, for fear that the library will lose me, and I would decided to go to school. Needless to say, that made my decision. I figured that if the library loves me that much, I don’t think that I could watch myself “give up” on my library. The moral of the story, for whoever is reading this is well, go to the library in your town, and make you “your” library, not the town’s library.

The Boy Within Me

I am far from the girly girl, who needs to plan their outfit out for the week, needs match nail polish to their shirt, it's just not me. I'm usually one of the guys. I'll be the one playing with the guys playing football, and I'm good at it, or I'll be the one who will complain when dad takes my brother, but not me hunting or to the gun range. I'm also the one who will be in the car and see a Corvette and yell "CORVETTE MY BABY!", that's only a few things that I'll do that most teenager girls (none of my friends) don't do.

Me

1. Talking about Cars

2. Playing with Fire (In a Safe way)

3. Hunting and Competitve Shooting

4. I'll watch Football and Hockey

5. I carry a pocket knief

Most Girls

1. Talking about the new hot boy in the school

2. Won't play with fire, let alone be with it

3. Shopping, and Why would you kill an innocent animal and eat it!

4. Ballet and Horseback Riding

5. Knives are bad

So as you can see I am on of the guys, but when I don't want to be with the guys, I can just go hang with my main friends. The four of us are all one of the guys.

Luv Ya,

C =]

A Week in a Homeschooler's Life

I had an idea today! That I will photograph my weekly life, what I do as a homeschooler, I’ll take pictures throughout the next week starting tomorrow and ending on the September 17th. After each day I will write and post pictures of what happened throughout the day. I hope this explains what I do as a homeschooler. I hope you enjoy reading the blog, and what my life consists of :)
