Most important thing I believe.

I don't know what I believe but I know what I don't believe.
I don't believe there is absolute truth , I don't believe half the things we learn in history from like thousands of years ago, I don't believe religious stories and I DON'T believe in dinosaurs.

Job

If the pay was the same I would definitely choose a challenging one. If it was comfortable, you'd just get too used to it and it would become boring. Also it would be like you're taking your self and abilities for granted because you're not pushing your self and you're wasting away your potential.

If today was my last day to live...

Well a day isn't long enough to do what I'd like to. I'd want to travel everywhere but since I only have a day theeeen shuckss.
 I'd spend it with my mommy, daddy, grandma, grandpa and Will and I'd entertain the heck out of them with my hyperness as a last nice memory of me. They like when I'm crazy, jumpy ,singy ,dancy, talky, obnoxious and annoying. They loooove that. So I'd please them with that. 24 hour entertainment finale of Kristi. Frick yeah.

Elementary School

Uhh... Elementary school wasn't exactly the best. I had terrible luck.
When I look back at elementary school I think of 5th grade when I passed out at school and was taken to the e.r. in an ambulance. After a lot of testing and whatnot I was diagnosed with Hunningtons Chorea and Rhuematic Fever. The Chorea went away after time but I still have and always will have rhuematic fever. I was on a lot of medication and gained A LOT of weight. I was suuuper chubby and I got really ugly. I also spent most of 5th grade in the hospital and even before any of that I missed a ton of school and I don't know why. I just never wanted to be there. There was a lot of bullying and depression. But once I hit middle school they took me off of most of my meds (besides the shot I get every 3 weeks and that I'll have to get until I'm 21) and I lost a lot of weight, got prettier and everything got better as soon as I got to middle school and then I was never absent because I wanted to be at school for once.

Deadbeat Parents

I have no idea why or how people become deadbeat parents. I can't fathom how they let that happen. Luckily neither of my parents are that way. A lot of the time, the young dead beat dads are because they're still growing and even though they think they're so manly, all they're displaying is how immature they still are. And a lot of couples that have kids young tend to give up so easy. But actual matured people and people old enough to take responsibility of being a parent should do whatever they can to be the best parent possible. I don't know how someone could walk out and give up. All that does is ruin the kids life. And I would always think that those episodes would always want to make the kid work hard and use the hurt and absence of a parent as motivation to always be better. But for some strange reason they just follow in their footsteps which is literally one of the dumbest things ever. They always complain of their parents and then end up the same way. Its retarded.


There are so many qualities that could make someone a good parent. And they could even be little things. All a kid really wants is for their mommy and daddy to simply just BE THERE and STAY. I don't understand whats so hard about that. I'm not saying you can't abe a good teenage parent, but most of the time you'll be a better parent if you wait until you're older. That way you have a stable life and enviroment for your child to live in. The more time you wait , you develope more maturity and a sense of how to live securely. Playing with your kid and simply paying attention are huge in being a parent. There are so many other things like teaching, laughing, spending as much time with them as possible... just so many simple things that some people just don't want to even put effort into. But I never had to worry about those things so yay to me.

TED Talk 6

1. Who gave the talk?
Seth Godin gave the talk and he explained how things are so
''broken'' and complicated these days.

2. Summarize the talk.
Basically the talk was about ''broken'' things in society.  If you really
take the time to pay attention to things, it'll be obvious of all of the crazy
things wrong with almost everything. Our world today is too complicated.
Life could be so simple, but people are making it seem so much more
difficult than it really needs to be. And all of this is happening because
of a small amount of people who felt the need to make it hard, made the
problems so much bigger, so then all these stupid things just blew up. Now
too much time is being spent on fixing stupidity in the world.

3.Did the talk change how you thought? Did you learn something?
It didn't change how I thought because I always think critically like him. And I
didn't necessarily learn anything but he opened my mind and made me realize
little specific problems in detail.

Yesterday :)

Yesterday was awesome :D
Will and I had to go to dance rehearsal for the musical right after school. When that was over, I had to go get my weekly stupid shot. Theeeen we went to dinner together and then we went to my grandmas and were being stupid, obnoxious and hyper. The highlight of that day was plucking Wills eyebrows ahahahaha. I've never done that to anyone and he was forcing me to do it and I didn't want to but once I started, I ended up really enjoying it hahaha. It was weird:) Then we watched American Idol and he went home. Weeeeee! It was fun. :) <3

Retirement

I don't know about other people, but every retired person in my family TRAVEL. That's ALL they do. They're always somewhere exciting and on cruises. Always always always. I think other people do that too. But my retired family members are always on the go. Well on my dads side. I can't think of a place where they haven't been. I plan to do the same when I'm old. :)

Presidential Election

Well. I don't think things will change right away if any at all. We're already tipping as a country and it'll take a lot longer than another 4 years to fix us. Sad but true. There's not much hope for us at this point .

Away From Home.

The farthest I've been away from home was being in Hawaii. I've been there twice but the last time I was gone it was longer. I went by myself on the plane and I stayed with my other family there for a little over 2 weeks. Surprisingly I didn't miss anything whatsoever and I really didn't want to come home. I'd like to go back actually and just stay there. Not just because its Hawaii but because of how differently I feel and how I'm treated by my family over there.

Closet Relative

I would say my grandma, mom AND dad but I don't see my dad as much as I did and when I go to his house him and his girlfriend just fight. we're close but we're not close close. I live and go back and forth between my mom and grandmas house. We never ever fight and we're all close, happy and we get along. But I don't tell them anything and I'm not open to them about feelings. Or anything. I'm very introverted but they probably think I tell them everything.

Student Goal.

Last semester I think I was fine so personally I don't have too many expectations for myself because I've been doing okay. But of course you can always improve yourself sooo I could obviously theres a few small things. As a student, in general, I want to slim down on being so hard on myself. I get too caught up on my mistakes and don't give myself enough credit for my little achievements. Also I'd like to be a little bit more careful and spend more time on work. I do dedicate time to my school work but sometimes I do it just to get it done and not try by best.

Goals for 2012

I didn't think I had goals because I usually don't but then I realized I do. I feel like I'm way behind in life. I feel like at 17 I should already know what I want to do after school and what I want to be when I grow up. I feel like I should have a job, a car and a lisence. Sooo maybe I should figure those things out. I also want to stop hating everything about myself and stop being so insecure all the time about everything.

Winter Break

On Christmas Eve I did something that I'll never forget. First I need to give you a backup story.

Back in October I heard a story about a girl from Anthem. Her name is Katie Wagner and she is a 16 year old sophomore at Boulder Creek High School. Early October she was diagnosed with stage 4 bone cancer. Not only that, she had many tumors and other cancer in her bladder, lungs, and pelvic area. Her proper diagnosis is called rhabdomysocarcoma and only about 1 in 5 million kids get it. Because of that, the prognosis is very low. She started chemo, lost her hair but with THOUSANDS of people and prayers with her story shared worldwide, her and her family have not lost their hope and faith. With a lot of medicating and chemo, her cancer had shrunk and the tumors have gone away 80%. They insist it's all the love and support received.

But couple of days before Christmas she had to go back to the E.R because her ANC level was at 0. Normal peoples are over 8000. Basically she had nothing at all fighting for her body and so she had to go to rely on machines to fight for her. They told Katie they wouldn't let her go home until her level was at least at 250. This was on Wednesday night, Christmas was on Sunday. Chances of her going home for Christmas were very slim.

I knew what hospital she was at. But I've never met Katie. I don't know Katie or her family personally. But I knew enough to care. Everyday since October I've checked her support page for updates on how shes been doing. I feel like I know her and her family enough. So the night before Christmas Eve , I planned that I would go drop of a present to be sent up for her. I didn't plan to meet anyone, just drop it off.

I got to Phoenix Children's hospital the evening of Christmas Eve and the lady at the front desk said there were no volunteers to take it , so she told me to go to the 7th floor to the desk there. The lady on the 7th floor desk asked me if I'd like her mom to some out and take the gift. I was scared, but I told her yes. She called Katie's room and told her ''there is a 17 year old girl here with a gift for Katie...'' and told me her dad would come get it.

About 5 minutes later 4 familiar faces were in my presence. Katie's mother, dad, brother and cousin came to meet me. I told them for my Christmas I wanted to do this for Katie. There were a lot of tears (of joy), hugs ,and good vibes. Understandably Katie was not well enough to be visited. I don't know what I would of said or done if I got to meet her anyway because she's so inspirational.

But what her mom and dad did was take a picture of me with a present, and her dad took the picture and present in to Katie, He came back with a picture of Kaite and the present. She had her little mask on and her hat. Katie, and anyone in her presence needed a mask because any germs could be so harmful. From Wednesday to that time, her ANC level was only 36, but it was better than nothing but chances were still too slim to be home for Xmas Even though the doctor promised if she got to even 150 he'd let her go home. From her chemo she also had a lot of sores in her mouth and wasn't talking much that day but her dad told me that she said ''tell her thank you.'' It was so heart warming and I really can't explain how it felt being there.

More of her family showed up and I met about 9 people that night. Even though I didn't meet Katie it was really one of the best nights ever. And her family actually sat and talked with me for a long time. They were the nicest and most positive people I have ever met and I love them for staying so strong though everything. After leaving I had a feeling that I never had and I felt like my life just changed. It was an incredible feeling.

The next morning was Christmas. I looked at Katie's page and read ''ANC LEVEL FLEW TO 176.'' Katie got to go home for Christmas..... <3





















And the rest of my break sucked and I did nothing.
