3 Crime Fighting Abilities

The three crime fighting super powers/abilities I would choose are teleportation, adaptation, and kung fu. I first chose teleportation because it would be similar to having super speed and I could travel anywhere in the world; this means I could use the power to fight crime by not being restricted to just local criminals. I could instantly criminals to different places if necessary, such as jail, or isolation. If Im in trouble or the criminal is about to hurt me, I can just teleport away. This could also cause distraction as I fight them and make for more of an epic battle. Which brings me to my next power- adaptation. I could teleport them underwater but still be able to breath and comfortably fight because I can adapt to any environment instantly. Or I could teleport to the sky and sprout wings. My last super power is kung fu. I simply chose this skill so I can actually fight. If Im not a skilled fighter than a lot of the other powers would just be useless to have. Plus, kung fu is just a boss fighting style.

Texting and Driving

"Ma. Stop."

I keep driving, continue typing

"Can you put your phone down?"

I look ahead, the light turns red

I slowly break

My eyes become occupied

No time it will take

Another text to make

"Ma, it's green"

I drop my phone, I look at the road

"Dling!"

I reach, she steals it from me

I feel disrespected

Although I know I was corrected

"You need to pay attention,

both hands on the wheel."

So silly I think, paranoid belief

Multitasking is no big deal

Her feet push on the car floor

Like a bolt tightened too much more

"Let me see."

"No, it stays with me."

"Would you quit it already!"

She gives it back reluctantly

As soon as I check-

"Ma, watch out!"-

I am filled with regret

Over in the next seat

Was an unconscious body

For one simple thing

Texting and driving.

Magical Smartphone

The first standardized app I would put on my magical smartphone is the ability to transport me anywhere in the world. All I would have to do is pull up the picture and destination and BAM. I am there. I also think it would be super convenient if I could pull anything I wanted out of pictures like food, outfits, etc. Certain apps could allow the phone to turn into special gadgets during emergencies, such as scuba masks, a pocket knife..... a fork, etc. The games on this smartphone would allow me to virtually play inside. I could play as if it were real life but still be able to come out whenever I pleased, died, or the game ended. The same could go for movies and stories. I could be added to the story line and play my own role as a character in the movie or online book. 

Dolla Dolla Bill

Peaceful greetings. Im about ready to share my psychedelic day with all you rad souls. Can you dig it? So I was like chilling in the man's pocket, when out of nowhere I see this radical afro. He passes me to a cashier with blood shot eyes and a fab beard. Before Im placed back into darkness, I catch a glimpse of record filled crates and far out posters. A few hours later, he pulls me out and Im stuffed into another dudes pocket. Next thing I know, I start hearing some real groovy tunes. When I come out, I see a whole bunch of funky lights and plenty of cool cats getting down. I was totally feeling all the good vibes but then everything changed. I wake up and to find myself lying on the side of the street. I couldnt like remember anything. All of a sudden I feel a hand grab me. Wide eyed, she looks at me and says, "Swag".

Shark Infested Woods

     Yimmy and I were laughing and fooling about in the woods; but what was a nice walk through the forest, would soon be a deadly trap. This, we did not know. For although we were aware that we were lost, we didn't mind because we had each other. We would find a way out and return home safely. Unfortunately, things didn't quite go as planned...

  "Sarah." Yimmy suddenly stopped and leaned closer to me. In a very low tone she whispered,"Look." I followed her eyes. There I saw what looked like a selarestial. A shot of adrenaline rushed through me. Selarestials is what we call the sharks that have been found swimming in the forest. They were recently found in other states but we had no idea they would be here. We had to find a way out. 

     What were we supposed to do? I gently pull Yimmy and slide over to a tree, attempting to block us from the Selarestial's field of vision. 

     "Stay here and watch for selarestials nearby. Im going to climb this tree and see if I can locate a way out of this graveyard." 

      "No! I don't want to stay down here by myself!" Yimmy whispers in a panicked tone.

      "If any sharks come, let me know without being too obvious and you better catch me when I jump." Im trying to take lead but Im shaking like a dysfunctional wreck. I begin to sweat as I climb the trunk, carefully grabbing each branch as I make my way to the top. All I can see are trees, but how else are we supposed to find a way out? So I look harder. I then noticed the red blinking dot on top of the fire house. That was where we were running to. I start to make my way back down when Yimmy frantically says "One's coming!" Immediately I jump and of coarse she fails to catch me. 

     "Sorry, false alarm." I slowly turn my head to give her an annoyed look.

     "We're heading north."

     

For Comfort

Depending on the situation of coarse, I might use different things/tactics to comfort me or allow me to relax. If i'm stressed or angry, I take deep breaths and just slow down. If i'm able to, I also might get my record player going, light incense and lye down. If I am sad, I would most likely just hang out with my dogs and watch a movie or something, because movies are great. A lot of the time I will simply go to sleep if I can; and that is for almost any situation. I am constantly listening to music as well, and I can pretty much use it in any situation to comfort me. It can get me into any mood I need it to, depending on what kind of music I play. And food. Food can always make me happy. Sometimes when i'm eating, I start dancing. Something else I really think helps is to right down whatever i'm feeling and then putting it away to never see again.  Combining and mixing up some of these comforts usually get me back up and going.

Or I just sit like this and think about life.

I Am From Everywhere

I am from 

No where

Because where I stand

My destiny is my plan

I look before to look ahead

But dare I dwell in the past

I will stay there

Ever so safe

So I am from 

The future

Where fear creeps down your neck

And attempts to disable your feet

The unknown instigates me

Never lets me breath

Somewhere I can't see

But I am from

My mind

Where imagination flourishes with creativity

Moves where I feel I can't reach

Knows nothing, but thinks everything

Confusing but right

Cannot tell if this is the light

Still I am from

The world

we connect through our weakness 

Guided by our strength

Do not separate

This is all we have

Going through blinded motions

Waiting for the next revolution

See I am from

The rebellion

Nothing is the same

The meaning is changed

For it is lead to peace

Running with vision

A hope that many

Will not understand

And they will say

I am from

No where 

Everyone else is an alien

If I woke up the next day after finding out that everyone else in the world was an alien but me- I honestly wouldn't mind too much. If Ive gone my whole life with them being aliens then everything would go on just as it had before. It might seem a bit repugnant  and overwhelming at first but it doesn't matter that they're alien, because they're still my friends, family, etc. I would still love and cherish them. So many people tend to immediately freak out and assume somethings bad just because they don't understand it. Maybe it's just because they're not used to it (which can be understandable). Whatever the reason, Im not going to be one to judge them so quickly. And technically if everyone one else on earth was an "alien" but me... then wouldn't I just be the alien?? I know I might feel lonely at times being the only human, but I will still continue to live my life and fulfill my plans. Although this would affect me emotionally or mentally, it's not the end of the world; just the beginning of a new one.

A Piñatas point of view

4:00-They still don't know

4:30-I am put into position

4:45-The children have gathered and I can see the anxiety in their eyes. (If I could smile, I would have the most evilest of smiles.)

4:50-They have begun to beat me as I am raised and lowered; harshly swung to and fro. I am in anguish but I know the pain will all be worth it in the end.

5:00-I open. Cheers turn into disappointment. The happiness is drained from the children's face.

5:01- Dumbfounded, the adults begin to panic as the children wine, complain, and question the perplexing absence of sweets.  

I have avenged my dear old friend and I hope that my sacrifice will not be forgotten. That it would be cherished as the day we, piñatas, stood up for ourselves. We shall no longer be taken advantage of and used for childish game. I recognize that I will not make it, but I do not regret my actions to keep the human from their victory.

Hello my dear old friend.

Spartan, Viking, Knight, or Roman Solider?

If I had to chose to be one of these four, I might choose to be a knight. I feel that this is a good choice because as a knight I could go on epic journeys and quests. Knights live honorable and courageous lives with integrity- fearlessly facing any challenge placed in front of them. I think that I could be a good knight as well because I bear these knightly characteristics, and I would most likely enjoy most of the dangerous activities knights must encounter daily. Although I considered being a spartan because of how impressive their military and interesting their culture was, I realized how rough their lives were even as infants. As a knight I would've been raised in the court of the lord, exposed to the ideals of chivalry. Again, I believe being a knight would be a better choice because of how fitting a knight's lifestyle is for me. However, I do still find that being a spartan would be absolutely insane and just really cool. 

Write This Story

Tulip started down a grassy path into the dark forest. It was a sound night as she walked to the crunch of leaves and waking crickets. She finally came to the place where all this trouble began. She was sure this was where he disappeared- or maybe he never left. All that visibly remained was a shallow, empty hole. Tulip thought to herself for a moment, when suddenly she heard a faint thump. Startled, she quickly looked in every which way, hoping to see the answer. She saw nothing. Tulip cautiously turned back around to continue her investigation, keeping a vigilant eye to her surroundings. Flashbacks ran through her mind of the few but mysterious encounters she had with the boy. Tom, was his name. "What could even be kept in here?!", she thought. Anxiously, she tried so desperately to remember any little detail that could help her understand. Then, again, she heard a thump.    

What kitchen item would I be?

I would be a coffee machine. I love coffee and a coffee machine isn't used as harshly as other kitchen items might be. As a coffee machine I would rarely be ignored and  could wake up to the taste of coffee almost every morning and throughout the day. Coffee makes people happy, starts their day, allows people to connect with each other and etc. So I would technically be providing that for them because you cant really have coffee without a coffee machine.

Gardening (kind of) Thing!

Well, I helped out with the children's garden at LCCC earlier today and it was really cool- I had a lot of fun! Unfortunately this one (myself) over here doesn't have a smartphone or any phone that takes pictures well, so I'm going to write a little about my experience...

Being able to go out there with some of my friends and just help out in general was definitely a great feeling. I laughed and actually enjoyed myself, even though I never doubted that I wouldn't, it was something I would certainly do again. Although we were just pulling out vegetables and grass, having others there that were also enjoying themselves, created an awesome, positive atmosphere. I love volunteering to do stuff like this and the fact that it got me extra credit and out of success lab makes it like 10x better!

So there we have it #yaaschewbaccaa#volenteerwork#LCCC#gardening#helpingothers#friends#fun#teamnosmartphone#lamebutokay

Deckhand Or Librarian?

If I had to choose between being a deckhand on a ship or being a librarian at a prestigious university, I would choose the deckhand. Id rather be the deckhand because I feel there would be more adventure involved and it wouldn't be as boring as a librarian might be. I would love to be able to stop at different places around the world and venture into more experiences. Being the deckhand on a ship could allow me to see more places, meet more people and etc. This, I feel, might even open more opportunities for learning and gaining new knowledge. It will also increase my fortitude. I have commonly thought about what it would be like to be a sailer as well. I am aware however, that as a deckhand my job would bring about many troubles; I could question whether those troubles would be worth my wanderlust but I guess it just all depends... 

My #1 Rule : Don't Get Comfortable

My #1 rule applies in many different aspects of life and I believe it is important because it allows more opportunities to be fulfilled-as well as being challenged daily. By not getting comfortable in one situation or where you stand in life, you are pushed to grow, learn and experience much more. This rule can also be helpful at home. For example, say you come home from school with homework and chores awaiting you; if you decide to sit down and relax for a while (although there is nothing really wrong with that) it makes it harder to get back up and accomplish what needs to be done. You tend to become lazy, procrastinate and/or waste time. I advice not to stay in your comfort zone but to strive and reach for more. Sometimes when we become too adjusted, any little change can be intimidating-preventing us from doing certain things. A lot of the time this can cause regret. This is why I believe people should follow my #1 rule. We should all get up, move, explore, etc. because it might just take us where we need to be.
