Week 16: 525,600 minutes!

2015 was certainly a great year, even though it went by in the blink of an eye. I finally graduated from eleventh grade and became a high school senior. Things have really changed a lot. I bought myself a truck, fixed it up, and started paying for insurance. My friends and I have been hanging out a lot more than we used to. I also loved the fact the Donald Trump started running for President. (I fully support him by the way.) I recently went to visit a great college in southern Illinois near St. Louis and found out that I had been accepted the day before we visited. It was the greatest day ever! (Besides visiting my dear old granddad in the hospital.(Long story, don't even get me started.)) So anyway, great year, can't wait for the next one!

Week 15: What's This?

Snow is amazing! It's really cool when little particles of frozen water fall from the sky and piles up into drifts five feet tall. Sure it gets freezing cold after a while, but there are so many things you could do with it. You could make a snow fort and fend off hordes of evil snowmen with snowballs. You could make an igloo and camp out like an Eskimo. You could go sledding down a steep hill and play 'Bowling for Friends'! Or when the snow makes a lake freeze over, you can go ice skating. Snowball fights with your friends and family are a lot of fun, too.
