response to maxine

maxine,
I really do like you and I dont want you to take this the wrong way baby but i feel like everything has changed. I really want us to be close friends again. I feel i need a friend more then i need a girlfriend and I feel that the longer we have this relationship the ferther apart our friendship is getting. I dont want you to think that everything I said was a lie because its not. I know i said i loved you for years and could never get over you but I am following my heart on this.

to my dearest love

to my dearest Maxine,
Eventhough we have had our rough patches we are still great friends and i am very happy about that. You help me through everything and i try to help you. We understand eachother better then anyone else can understand us and you are like my sister. We share the same views on almost everything and one day when we finally get fed up wit all those stupid guys and do what we always talked about. We have auch getat inside jokes kind of like that one and you can always make me laugh. I love how you and I can tell eachother everything and you always speek your mind,I swear thats where i get it from you are the one that inspires me to say what i want to people like Mr.Lunn. Yea like i said great times.

Macbeth

I do not think Macbeth is to gruesom. The language is semi difficult to understand but it helps that Mr.Lunn explains everything to us after we read it. So far i do not have any questions about Macbeth.

The Cathedral's history goes back to 597AD when St Augustine, sent by Pope Gregory the Great as a missionary, established his seat (or 'Cathedra') in Canterbury.During the 10th century, it became a formal community of Benedictine monks, which continued until the monastery was dissolved by King Henry VIII in 1540. Augustine's original building lies beneath the floor of the nave– it was extensively rebuilt and enlarged by the Saxons, and the Cathedral was rebuilt completely by the Normans in 1070 following a major fire. The Cathedral is both a holy place and part of a World Heritage Site. It is the home of a community of people who seek to make the Cathedral a place of welcome, beauty and holiness.

Writing

Writing has never come easy to me. I had difficulty writing as a freshmen and still find it difficult now. One of my worst struggles with writing is where to start. Once I have a place to start sometimes the rest falls into place and sometimes it doesn't. I'm not too sure how to write down the feelings I am trying to express. The right words to use never are easy to find. My thoughts run in all different directions. Writing just does not come easy to me.

My Hero

My personal hero is my mom. She has always been my hero and i am sure she always will be. I have looked up to other people also like famous soccer players and family members but my mom has always been my number one hero in her own way. Some of you may not know this about me but my parents are divorced and have been since I was about two and a half. My dad lives in Harlan Kentucky which is a small town about five hours away. Because of the distance I only saw my dad on some holidays and over some of the summer. As I got older I started going down there less because of my sports. So therefore my mom had me on her own for awhile and managed to work, get me to school, and take care of me. She had very little time to herself unless she had someone to watch me but she never complained. She met my stepdad when I was four and he was great. Throughout the years my mom coached my softball and soccer teams and was at all my games for all the sports I played. She has always supported me in my decisions and whenever I wanted to try new things she was there for me and helped me with whatever I needed. I now have twin brothers that are three and even when they were really little my mom still managed to find a way to make it to most of my games and tournaments. I don’t have my license yet I could have them but I just haven’t gone to all my classes. Since I don’t have them my mom still takes time out of her day and drives me around to where in need to or just want to be. I may not tell her enough but I really appreciate my mom and everything she does for me and I hope to one day be as great of a mother as she is to me.

About Me

My name is Alicia Marie Perkins but most of my friends and family call me LeeLee. I got this nickname because when my cousins on my dads side of the family and I were little they could not pronounce my name right. This was because my dad and his family live in Harlen Kentucky which is a small town in the middle of the mountains. People in Harlen have really bad accents and have trouble saying and spelling certain things. Therefor LeeLee was easier for them to say then Alicia. I love sports and have been playing them since i can remember but the two sports I have stuck with are soccer and volleyball. I have been playing soccer since i was four and volleyball since third grade. I have tryed many other sports like basketball and softball but never liked them as much as I like soccer and volleyball. I also love to snowboard in the winter and hope to have my three year old little brothers on a board soon. I am sad to say i don't see it happening though because they are only three. Also my step dad wants them to learn how to snow ski before they learn how to board.
