11) A Way To Remember

"Take care of all your memories. For you cannot relive them" - Bob Dylan. Mr. Dylan is right unless you have some sort of machine that lets you relive your memory like Inception. It is hard to appreciate each moment for what it is worth. It is even harder to try to remember what you did last week. I found a way to remember and appreciate each moment better . . . (Read the bottom)

Today I came across something cool called a memory jar. For those of you who have never heard of a memory jar, it is a great way to store your most cherish moments that were special to you. All you need is a medium sized glass bottle, a black pen or marker, and construction papers. Each day you would write one sentence or two and put it inside the jar. It could be about anything. It could be about something good that happened that day, something you thought about, your dreams or goals, or anything that is on your mind. The only rule is you have to write something everyday. I suggest that you should start a memory jar on as soon as possible. Before the year is over, open the bottle and read all things that happened that year. I'm going to try to make a memory jar this year and stick with it. Good luck!

10) Don't Worry They Said, Senior Year Will Be Easy They Said

Who is ready for Christmas Break? I know I am. I'm sick of senior year already. The teachers are giving way too much work before vacation. Don't they have a life? Or are they trying to make us have no life? Instead they should be rewarding us and themselves by giving the students no homework, tests, or quizzes. It would be the best Christmas present they could give us.

A weekend wasted on studying :(
This is what I have to say
about senior year.

This week is going to be crazy for me. I have one chemistry final, one calculus final, and a test for English. Do they really expect me to study for all of that? I don't know if it is my senioritis talking but I say screw that. Don't you guys feel the same? Not just the seniors but also the juniors and sophomores.

9) White Blanket Of Snow

Don't you get excited when you look out the window and see white, shiny flakes covering the ground and transformed the landscape making it a magical place full of wonder and undiscovered mysteries? Maybe I am exaggerating about the "magical land" or "mysteries" part but this is how I feel when it is snowing outside. 

As a senior, I am hoping that it will snow as much as possible. If a freak snow storm comes and drops three feet of snow, it wouldn't hurt anyone. 
I remembered last year when we had three feet of snow. I couldn't even see my dad's car at all. It was covered by massive amount of snow. The snow went up to knee. It was a struggle trying to shovel all the snow. By the end of the day, I had fun throwing snowballs, making snowangels, and pushing my sister into the snow. Just kidding about the last part... or am I?

If Santa really does exist, I just want a week of snowdays for Christmas. I am not asking for much.

8) The Danger Of Black Friday

Mob of people
Stacks of iPad mini
After being pushed and trampled on Black Friday last year, I came back once again to test its mighty sales. I had a game plan this year. It was a divide and conquer strategy like always but this time I'm going with my cousin just to safe. It is a very dangerous time of year if you don't have a buddy. This year I'm waiting on an iPad mini while my cousins are in line for a TV and a laptop.

I still remembered last year when my cousin and I got pushed once they rang that the sales have begun. We were pushed left and right. The boxes that held the games were demolished. Black Friday's keep getting crazier and crazier each year. My worst fear on Black Friday is some old grandma hitting me with her cane so she can get her grandson an Xbox one.
