Respect is a very important aspect of life. Respect means being able to show consideration, kindness and politeness towards others. Someone who is respectful does not intentionally try to hurt another individual and tries their best to put others feelings before their own. I have respect for many people in my life. I mostly respect adults because I look up to them for guidance and for inspiration. I also respect my family for always being by my side through the thick and thin and helping shape me into who I am today. And of course, I respect my true friends. I respect them for always considering my thoughts and feelings and always being there for me when I just need someone to vent to. There are many individuals of whom I look up to, but each of them for different reasons. It is important that respect is not lost in a relationship. Lying to someone is the biggest way that respect can be lost. Gaining respect for someone is difficult to do, but trying to respect them after they have disrespected you is even harder. In my opinion, in order to make achievements in life and to succeed, respect is much needed. Not only do you have to respect others but you need to respect yourself as well. Having self-respect really shows people the person you really are. If you lack self-respect, chances are that you are not going to get much in return from others. All in all, respect is being polite to everyone by simply showing them you care.

Dream Job!
I can think of many jobs out there that would be a very fulfilling career. However, my ultimate dream job would be to someday open my own Daycare Center. This would be the perfect career for me. I absolutely love children and being around them. I enjoy making them laugh and hearing the funny things they do and say. Anyone who knows me well knows that this really would be the perfect career for me. Not only is opening a Daycare Center my dream job because I love spending time with children, but also because my personality fits in with this career better than anything else. My personality is often similar to a child’s due to the fact that I love to laugh and enjoy life. If I were to someday pursue my dream job, I am confident that I would not regret my choice and that I would actually look forward to waking up for work. I have experience with children from my job this past summer. Every week day during the summer I did fun activities with small children and entertained them in order for them to participate in fun activities during their summer. I absolutely loved waking up early in the morning to go to work. The happy spirits and crazy things the kids would say are priceless and made me actually enjoy my job. Another reason why I would love to open a Daycare in my future is because someday when I have children of my own, I will be fortunate enough to be able to be at work and spend time with my children at the exact same time. In my opinion, this is a huge advantage of this career. Owning my own Daycare Center would be the perfect career for me.

My Best Friend.
There are many people who have had an influence on my life, or impacted it in some way. There are also many people of whom I look up to as role models. When I think of someone that I look up to, the person that first comes to my mind is Mike Kueker. Not only is he my boyfriend of over two years, but also my best friend as well. Before we started dating, we were very close friends, and even then he was already someone that I looked up to. As each day passes, I continue to find more and more things about him, and also things that he does, that come as an inspiration to me. Michael is a very intelligent individual, therefore he inspires me to want to receive good grades and work even harder towards doing so. He also has an amazing work ethic. For Mike, school comes above mostly everything else in life. He has high hopes of becoming an anesthesiologist in the near future and he knows that in order to succeed he has work extremely hard. Homework comes before all activities although it is not at all what he constantly wants to be doing. Even though he has a ton of his own homework to do, he is always there to give me guidance with my trigonometry homework which comes as a struggle to me. Aside from the school aspects of why Michael is someone whom I look up to, he has also influenced me in many other ways. He has taught me to look at all situations in a positive manor, because having a negative attitude will not help to change anything. He helps to get me through difficult situations and to keep my spirits up. Mike also knows exactly how to lift me up when I am down. If I am having a terrible day, he always has the perfect things to say that clear my head and make me smile. A lot of who I am today is due to the significant impact that Mike has had on my life. After being in a relationship with him for such a long period of time, he has influenced my life in so many ways that I never thought possible. I am so thankful that the person who I look up to most in life, just so happens to be my best friend.
My oopsy
There have been many incidents in my life where I was forced to deal with intense pain. However, the worst pain that I have ever experienced was when I broke my collar bone during the summer of ninth grade. It was a gorgeous summer day and my friends and I decided that we wanted to take a bike ride. Being the camera freak I am, I insisted on bringing my camera along with us in my bag. While I was enjoying the wind blowing through my hair, I captured a picture of my friend Mary and I riding our bikes, smiling and have a great time. Further down the road as we were approaching a steep hill, for some reason I felt that I could capture a candid image of Mary riding her bike down the hill. As soon as my finger clicked the button and the picture took, I realized that I was flying down the hill at a high rate of speed, and immediately pulled the left brake without even thinking. Of course, my bike sent me soaring through the air with my bike as well. I landed many feet down the road, harshly on my left shoulder. I am so thankful that there were no cars coming from either direction, because seeing how I landed in the middle of the road, my accident could have been a lot worse than it was. After I landed I immediately grabbed my bike and my camera and dragged myself to the side of the road and lay in the ditch. I was too scared to cry because I was just so scared that my mom would be mad at me. After I called my mom and she arrived, she knew that I had to go to the hospital immediately. After all, my bone was almost poking through my skin. At the hospital it was decided that I absolutely needed surgery. Two weeks after this occurrence, I went in for surgery and came out all fixed up! That entire summer I had no choice but to sleep in a recliner chair and was not able to participate in many sleepovers. I now and always will have a metal plate and five screws holding my shoulder together and also a four inch scar on the left side of my body. Although sometimes this bothers me, when it comes down to it, I am thankful they were able to fix it as well as they did.

Creative blog
Ryan Pinkowski is pretty much known as a big deal in this school. After all, he is part time student, part time super hero. This is probably the main reason why he is so busy all the time. Of course, he has to go to school daily, catch up on his homework and try to fit time in for being with his friends. In fact, the only time that he really gets to spend time with his buddies is during school, Monday through Friday. After school, there is no time at all for Ryan to goof around, there’s not even time to study! He is constantly “on call.” This means, whenever danger calls, Ryan must be there. He must keep his pager on at all times, just in case danger strikes at any hour of any day. He even has no choice but to leave because of a call in the middle of school. I have witnessed this for myself. I am currently in block four with Ryan and last Wednesday his pager started going off. I have never seen someone react so fast as Ryan did. He immediately sprung right out of his chair and that was it, it was out the door. No one really knows exactly what kind of missions Ryan is sent on. All we are aware of is that he is in fact a true super hero and is involved with super hero actions. Such actions include, soaring into the air to quickly transfer to a person in need of assistance and battling evil villains. I am positive that being a super hero involves many more responsibilities, however those responsibilities are demanded to be kept confidential. All in all, I have no idea how Ryan Pinkowski handles all of the stresses that he is held responsible for. He is not only busy in school as a student, but also outside of school as a super hero.

Scariest moment ever!
In my life I have encountered many scary and creepy experiences. However all were minor scares. Some include watching scary movies, and attending haunted houses during the Halloween season. In fact, my scariest encounter occurred at a very scary haunted house called Freight World. Last year during the month of October I went to Freight World with some of my girlfriends, and also my guy friends. We were having a great time and had just finished going through all four houses. Of course, being the scardy cat I am, I was the only one screaming and hiding behind people trying to avoid the creepy workers coming up to me. Little did I know, the people hired to dress freaky and scare everyone, love to come up to the individuals who seem most scared. Lucky for me, a man decided to chase me around the entire building with a chain saw. I have never ran so fast in my life and never have I ever screamed so loud. Eventually they stopped picking on me, probably because they couldn’t even find me when I darted into a crowd of people and hide in between them. After I met up with my friends I was so relived to finally be back and not have to worry about them harassing me; so I thought. Little did I know two workers were sneaking up being me, a creepy clown and a 7 foot, 400 pound man dressed as a baby, with all intensions to scare me senseless, and boy did it work. I began to run away, however there was nowhere for me to go to, besides a corner; stupid mistake on my part. The two men pinned me in the corner, saying my name over and over again and would not let me go. I had never been so scared in my life. As I began to cry because I was so terrified, every single one of my friends stood back, laughing and videotaping me. Just goes to show you who your real friends are I guess! This was honestly the most terrifying encounter in my life.

Horror Story Starring Nate Bailey
One Halloween’s night, a boss named Nathan Bailey was trick or treating with his friends. They all decided to dress up together as Power Rangers and do a little bit of candy gathering. The boys were having a blast, running down the streets yelling “Trick or Treat!” Snickers, Skittles, Reese’s, you name it! The boys were collecting candy of all kinds. As they were going from house to house, they soon approached a street that was dark and seemed to be abandoned. Together they decided that they were going to take a walk down that road. After a rather long walk they finally approached a spooky looking house that was the only one on the street and all the way at the very end of the road. Seeing how decorations were up and lights were on Nate persuaded his friends that it was okay to approach the house. As they yelled “Trick or Treat” the door slowly creaked open, with no one standing there. As they peered inside a bowl of candy was sitting on the stair case. Being the boss that Nate Bailey is, he decided to run in quick and grab the candy for him and his bros. However, Nate was not quick enough. As he went to go reach for the bowl, the door behind him slammed and locked shut, as he screamed and cried for help. The old man inside took Nate and gassed him. Nate immediately passed out. Just as the old man was about to take an axe to his head, his Power Ranger pal Ty Stoldt kicked down the door. The creepy old man ran as fast as he could out the back door, and no one has ever seen him since. After Nathan woke up from the gas he was given, he was so thankful for his life and for his friend Ty saving him. Throughout this entire experience, Nate Bailey and his friends definitely realized that Nate can’t always be the boss for all situations.
