Morning

Today I had to wake myself up so I could get myself off to school. The alarm on my phone wasn't working so I woke up a little late. I woke up at 7:34, my mother woke me up by throwing water at my face. It was really cold water, so cold it almost could of been water from the Antarctic.
After I woke up I took a really hot shower so I could wake up. After my shower I brushed my teeth, then I put on my shoes. Then I left from my house up at south Salem at 7:48.

Privilege

I only have one privilege. The only privilege I am able to do is hangout with people I have known since middle school. The way that I have earned to do that is by building a trust relationship with my parent. I build the trust relationship by doing chores. Chores such as cleaning, babysitting, going to church. There is another way I am able to build the trust. I am not to swear, be rude, and impolite to others.

If I knew I had only a short time to live I would do nothing. I wouldn't try to complete a bucket list. I wouldn't do something really extreme or out of the ordinary. I would not tell my family. The only real thing I would actually do is just go to the park and sit in a shady area. I would sit in a shady area because I do not like to sit in direct sun light.

My family has owned a lot of pets. We have 3 dogs right now: a wiener dog, mix breed, Australian cattle dog. The only animal that I had ever owned was a basset hound I named Tia. I first got Tia when I was 6 and a half. She was the laziest dog I would ever have. I had Tia for one year. She got a tumor inside of her right next to her heart. My family and I took her over to the Veterinarian office to see what could happen to help her. The Vet told us that Tia only had a year or so to live. Tia died when I was 15.

The next animal I plan on having is a German Welsh Corgi. I am planning to call him Ein. The other pet I am going to get is going to be a Basset hound. I am going to call the Basset hound Spegal.

If I were in the same situation as the miners in Chile, I would miss my family the most. To me my family has been there for me. They have helped me out where others couldn't. They have help me with so many things. I couldn't stand being 3 months away from them. It would kill me to find out something has happened to them that I could'nt do anything about.

Weekend

This weekend I am going to skate from South Salem to Keizer. I am skating that far as a test run for a race me and my friend's set up for this up coming spring break. We still have quite a few obstacles in our way. We still need publicity for our race, Spotters, and safety contracts.

Night race

Every year on the last day of October there is a long board skateboard race a company called Long Board Larry makes the race possible. Every year it's from top of Boone Rd. off of Liberty St. to the bottom of High Street. At the bottom of High street there is Bush park. And that is the finish line. The first on to get to the bottom of bush is the winner.

Last year I entered in the Long board Larry night race. We started to move inch by inch until someone just took off. The race started right after him. All 129 long board speed happy skateboarders went down Boone. I was in a giant chain of people. We made it past Liberty. We rushed onto Commercial dodging traffic, bicycles, and pedestrians. All of us had to turn on Ratcliff we were all going easily 20 miles per hour. We turned onto Ratcliff going that speed so by the middle of rat cliff we were all hitting about 36 Miles per hour I am guessing. There was a pot hole in the road that we didn't see. I hit the pot hole and flew off my board while going as fast as I was. More than 20 people were behind me. I covered my face with my knee, and elbow pads back to everyone. I was really scared of being hit by a board going 20 miles per hour. That would really mess someone up. I didn't get hit by anything some how. Unfortunately my friend broke his arm, 4 finger's, 2 toe's, and he broke his nose. The good thing about these races is there are spotters out looking for some one that gets hurt. so when he fell he had an easy 8 people help him to the Hospital.
