Last Blog

Well I guess this is the last blog that I have to do for this semester. I first of all would like to say GOOD LUCK, to everyone. I hope that you all have a great summer.

Well I thought that I wouldn't be happier to see the end of this semester, but I was wrong. Now I am completely spooked. I have emailed a teacher of mine twice now about a question that I have. Well, I have yet to get a response. So now I have no idea if I am even close to passing my math class. I have finally got all my homework done and only have the final left, but I do not know if I will be able to get a grade high enough to pass. Mainly because my teacher will not respond to my emails.

I understand that the teachers are busy, but after three weeks I would of thought that he would of answered me something. A simple yes or no would work. Do I sound like I am being unreasonable? I would like to know if I am.

I will just be glad when the final is over and I know if I can continue on next semester. That way maybe then I can get a response from the teacher on if I passed or not!!

Well anyway the best of luck to all who are dealing with finals this week. Have a great summer.
See you all around!!!

Oh yeah and last but not least thank you to Mrs. Chism for answering our emails even when they are petty :) Thank you.

My Crazy Life

Well another week has come to a close. So let me tell you I am worn out. Here is what I am facing now.

Two of my boys are playing baseball this season. Which I think is great! But the running nonstop and studying for finals is crazy!!!! They both had their first game on Monday one started at 7 then other at 7:45. I missed them both because while they were playing their first games I had to study for a History quiz. So I sat in the car and studied while my husband got to try and watch two games at the same time. Which was sad that I missed it but I got an 80% on my history quiz so good that I studied.

Well as you may recall the two that are playing baseball are the same two that are in boy scouts and cub scouts. So before the game Monday we had to take the youngest one to cub scouts to have his picture taken for the paper and to find out what he would be missing because his meetings are on Mondays. Anyway, made it through Monday then Tuesday thankfully nothing was going on other than Math homework. So there went Tuesday. Then Wednesday, the other one had boy scouts so we had to take him to the middle of no where because they were meeting there to pick up trash. Good for the kids!! Great for the environment. Well to make matters worse Wednesday I came done with a major ear infection, nothing new get them all the time, but this time my ear was bleeding. Ouch!!!

Then Thursday gets here, another baseball game didn't feel good at all but I got to watch the game and it was fun, their team won 15 to 6. It was almost 10 when we got home. (The first time I got to go home since I left for work at 7 that morning, so I was ready to be home.)

Then today Friday gets here, and thankfully the office was closed today, but still had to be up to take the kids to school. Then I had to run my mom on errands, didn't get home until after 3:30. Then of course starting to relax and bam, time for another baseball game. It was so cold with the wind blowing, and of course my ear is still painfully there, so it was hard to sit there in the wind, but I must say I would do it all over again to watch my boys play there baseball games.

Now I know that some people are probably thinking that I am crazy, for doing all this but what they may not understand is that it makes my kids happy to be doing all this so that makes it all worth it. This my friends is why you should finish school then have kids. It makes for a crazy life if you don't. But worth every bit of it for me!!

12-year-old Killer

In Detroit a jury has found a 13-year-old boy guilty of murder, armed robbery, felony armed robbery and curfew violation. The little boy Demarco Harris was 12 when he attempted to rob 24-year-old Trisha Babcock. She was sitting in her car when Harris attempted to rob her at gun point when he shot her in the chest.

This was Harris' second trial the first one in January ended in a hung jury. This time he has been found guilty. The prosecutor has said that they do not know what type of sentencing they will be asking for. They have two options they can ask for him to be sentenced as a juvenile or they can try him as an adult. They said they will not announce that until they go in for sentencing.

Babcock's dad was at the trial and stated that he, "cried like a baby." He also stated, "everyone knew he was guilty." He said that, "he feels like the best thing would be a life for a life, but that they do not have the death sentence in Detroit."

What I do not understand is what this 12-year-old was thinking? He was only 12 when he murdered a 24 year old women. Why was he trying to rob someone and where was his parents?

I feel that he must have something wrong with him mentally to be thinking of murder at the age of 12. Hopefully he will get the help that he needs while spending his life in prison. At least that is what I feel that he should have is life in prison without the possibility of parole.

(I was completely shocked when I Googled 12-year-old killer it brought up a ton of them so the second two websites that I pasted to this one are of other stories about killer kids. The first one will take you to the web site for this story.)

My Weekly Rant

Well here we are at finals again. I cannot believe that it is already here. I am concerned about my math final. It is one of the course compass classes, and it doesn't really show your grade. Well I have struggled all semester with this class. I am behind and slowing catching up. I am just hoping that I am able to pass that class.

I am horrible with math. I am so concerned about not passing this semester, that I am freaking out about what to do about it. It is all I can think about. When I am at work all I can think about is I should be home doing math. Then when I am home and trying to work on my math I feel like I am neglecting my other classes. I am just so worried about it.

Then there is the fact of this last paper. I am trying to finish it, and whenever I am working on it I have a hard time concentrating on it thinking that I need to be doing my math. I feel like this math class is taking over my mind.

I am just glad that this is supposed to be the last math class that I need. Maybe that way I can just be done with math. I don't understand when in my life I will need to know how to graph a problem like 7x +5y is greater than 2. I do not think that in any field I will need to know that. I would not ever consider a field that I would have to do that. I am horrible at it.

Well anyway best of luck to all those getting ready for finals. I will pray for everyone to do well. I will be praying extra hard for those like me who are struggling. :)

Search For Missing Mom

In Austin TX police are searching for missing 21-year-old Julie Gonzales. She was last seen March 26th by her estranged husband. She had went to his house to pick up their two year old daughter and then changed her mind, according to her estranged husband George De La Cruz. He states that when she showed up she looked sad and was out of it. Then he says that she told him, "never mind I'll come back later." He also states that he will take a polygraph test.

The police say that they are looking for her to the fullest extent of the law, but without probable cause they cannot search her abandoned car. They found her car located outside of a Walgreen's store. Julie worked at another Walgreen's in Austin as a pharmacy tech.

Her mother and aunt both say that for the last two years Julie has been the type of mother that is always there for her daughter. They both say that she is not the type of mother that would rather be out partying.

It is said that there has been no activity with her bank account, but that her mother had to go and look at a servalence tape from a store where one of her daughters credit cards was used. Her mother has said that it was not her daughter and that she didn't know who it was. Her family has fears that something terrible has happened to her.

I feel that maybe her estranged husband might have had something to do with her disappearance, but there is a bit of dought that he did. I guess he could of but how do we know that someone else didn't. Maybe she did come to his house the way he said and felt or knew that something was going to happen to her and left her daughter there so that nothing would happen to her. I hope that they find out what has happened to her for the sake of her daughter and her family.

My weekly rant

I cannot believe people, mainly celebrities. Heidi Montag as the whole world is aware recently got a boob job. Well, it is all over the press about her boob job. I say who cares. What I also do not understand is that she not only went big she went DDD. I think this is ridiculous. Who wants back pain and neck pain? She is asking for problems later.

What promoted me to even write a blog about it is that this evening while in line at the grocery store, I was looking at the tabloids and seen a story about her. It said in the story that she is not happy with her DDD's she is now wanted to get them redone to an H. I think she looks awkward now I cannot even imagine an H. That is crazy. I think that she felt like she wasn't getting enough publicity so she decided to get a boob job that was crazy big so that she would get attention. Now I think that she likes the attention that she is getting and doesn't want to loose it so she wants to get a bigger set.

I cannot believe that she would really want bigger than she currently has. I understand people getting this done because they want to feel better about their bodies and that is fine. But hers is getting ridiculous. If she goes to an H she will not look right. They will not match her body. They already don't look even. and when she has on something like a tight topped dress they look like one giant boob. I guess because I am not made of money and a movie star I do not understand this kind of stuff.

If I have offended anyone I am sorry I did not write this to do that I just feel like this is a crazy money making move on her part.

Man Tortured 4-Year-Old Boy

In Michigan a man has been charged with 9 charges, all of which involved his girlfriends 4-year-old boy.

Brandon Haynes 24, is accused of killing and torturing 4-year-old Dominick Calhoun. He apparently beat and tortured little Dominick for days. His mother supposedly had tried to cover him from the abuse but got beaten herself. This was all done over the little boy wetting his pants. This is such an awful tragedy. I feel that the mother should also be charged with murder. She put the child in that situation and did not remove him from it.

I understand that she tried to cover him from the blows but this is ridiculous. Brandon Haynes apparently had also burned the child. In the autopsy he had burns on his knuckles.

This kills me to read things like this. This young child is gone from this world and for what for wetting his pants. Something that most children do. This was such a heart breaking story to read. Then to know that it had went on for days. I cannot even fathom what that little angel was going through.

I truly hope that this man gets the death penalty. He doesn't deserve to live. How can a human do this to another human. Then to know that he did this to a child. If that were my son I would be in prison for killing that sicko for laying a finger on my child. I cannot believe this child's mother let this happen to her baby. How can you sit there and let this happen? I would of died trying to get him out of that situation.
