Hmm...
So me and Mrs. Steif made a little bet. Well it's not really a bet but we both promised to write a post by the end of the week. I don't really have a lot of time to write so I kind of have to type quick. I was thinking earlier this week about how I can make myself a better person. I think I could give people a chance before I say something rude. I think I could forgive and forget. I got to go but I promise that next time I will write a longer post. I love all of you!!

Something about St. Patrick's Day!!
Okay, I didn't write this one... my friend Kristin wrote it and she wanted me to put it on for her... this is her opinion on things. Enjoy!
Many people don't know the story behind Saint Patrick. When he was sixteen he was taken as a slave by Irish raiders and and forced into slavery. He lived there for six years before returning to his family. He entered the church and returned to Ireland as an ordained bishop in the north and west of the island. Saint Patrick drove "snakes" out of Ireland and it was said to be a miracle. What a lot of people do not realize is that serpents was a metaphor for early Pagan religions of Ireland. Christianity was brought to Emerald Isle by Saint Patrick. He nearly eliminated Paganism. As Pagans, we need to take a stand and refuse to observe this day which gives honor to the man who eliminated Paganism. All Pagans and Wiccans wear some sort of snake attire instead of green clothes. Show support and let's start a new tradition... All Snakes Day!

Enjoy The Little Things...
My dad loves this movie called Zombieland. I watched it and I think it's pretty funny funny. Anyway, there is this guy in it named Tallahassee (I'm not sure how to spell it.) and he is OBSESSED with twinkies. He lost his son and his son loved twinkies. He learned how quick and suddenly your life can change. So his new motto was "enjoy the little things." Like tonight, my dad and I were watching the news and they said that the planet Saturn was going to be visible tonight. We took out our telescope and spent about twenty minutes trying to find the moon. Soon we found the moon and turned the microscope a little to the left. There was this tiny bright circle shining really bright in the sky. My dad focused the lense and you could see it perfectly. It was very small but you could just make out the tiny slanted rings surrounding the bright planet. It was so amazing to be able to see something so far away that not very many people will ever get to see. I'm glad I got the chance to see something that incredible. So I do owe a big thanks to my daddy for helping me... I LOVE YOU DAD...(even though it doesn't seem like that sometimes!!)
