me :)

When my life started out my father was addicted to meth, He never really loved us kids or my mom for that matter. It made me not able to trust any man before I met Elton Taylor, he is three years older then me, and he is my best friends brother. Everyone says that its romantic that I fell in love with my best friends brother, but he is 20 and its against the law for me to be with him. Nobody knows how is feels not able to be with the man you love, because he can get in trouble and go to prison. He is going to Afghanistan in 6 days, he is a national gaurd he deactivates bombs. I promised him ill wait for him for a year till I'm 18 so we can finally be together with out anyone judging us. On novenber 18th 2010 will be one of the best days of my life, And I have my best friend Kaitlyne to thank for setting me up with the man of my dreams aka her older brother.

the most embarrassing moment

When I was hanging out with Kaitlyne and Justin in my bed room, so we were just sitting there and I started not to feel very well. So I turned off my light and laid in bed and talking to Kaitlyne. Then i stood up and walked out my room looked down the stairs and puked. Kaitlyne came running out, laughing, calling my brother, and telling him what happened. So I sat there and started laughing and my mom made me clean it up. It was also a carpet staircase.

my future in this class

10/29/09
Dear Rebekah,

What I want to learn in this class is how to read poetry better and how to read through the lines, and understand what the author means. I also want to improve my understanding of words and also improve my vocabulary. Also I want to find more books that I like because I usually only read biographies or about our environment and hopefully I can get into fiction.

Sincerely,
Morgan Long

cooper


Cooper is my fishy he has a beautiful array of colors
purple, blue and even some pink.
He swims around in a really big tank
because I know he will be happy.
He has a huge plant in his tank some pretty rocks
and even a little mushroom.
He likes his food flaky so it will float on the water
I know when he is hungry because he just swims a around.
He is my favorite fishy by far
nobody will be able to replace him in my heart.

this be the verse

Its about how parents mess you up when your a kid. Its not really there fault they don't do it on purpose, because there parents did it to them. The moral of the story is don't have any kids yourself or the cycle is going to keep going. I do like the poem because it is a very random subject and it seemed really dear to him.

my epic weekend

Kaitlyne's and I are going to have a halloweiner bash. I've never been a host of a party before and this is going to be the best party ever. We are going to have Kaitlyne, her boyfriend, Deza, her boyfriend, my brother, my sister in law, Sean, and myself. We are going to be listen to music and watching scary movies. The house is going to be decorated with streamers and large pumpkins. First we are going to carve pumpkins then eat and the party's on. Its going to be out in the middle of nowhere at my grandfathers farm. There is a huge forest in the back so we might go explore that. Then we will come back all wet and cold, sit next to the fire, and then watch some movies. This is going to be the best party ever, just because all my friends will be there and I couldn't ask for more.

Its been awhile

This song is about someone that just broke up, and he is remembering everything they did together and that he can't get her out of his mind and then he thinks about blaming it on someone else but he can't. In a way this theme could be love or heart break, and I can relate to this because I've felt heart broken before.


Its been awhile Staind

it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and fucked things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem to be, I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry

poetry

People write poetry because they are trying to tell a story. They do not want to say it directly so they can try to make you guess what they are trying to say, like when they write about a tragic incident, about falling in love, or just simply about everyday routines. You can pretty much write about everything. It captures the readers attention because they are trying to read between the lines and try to get the moral of the story.

Kaitlyne Maria Cox

Kaitlyne is my best friend. I have known her for about two years now and I think she will stay with me forever. We have the same sense of humor and all we do is joke around. As soon as I get me G.E.D I am going to move up to Washington with her and her mother for a year, and then I'm moving back to Salem. She was gone for a year in a rehab and i really found out how it feels to be alone. Thanks to her I will never feel that way again. I mean we try to fight and it doesn't work. Everyone says you will most likely not keep your friends from high school, but this one I don't think so. We are like sisters and you cant leave your family behind.

my hero

My grandfathers been there since I was born, he is like a father to me. But one late night the family woke up to the phone ringing and it was my grandpa saying he can barely breath, he thinks he is having a heart attack and that we need to hurry and get there. He has had his far share of heart attacks, so I knew he was okay and if something was really wrong that he would call me. My grandma, my mom ,my sister , my brother and I all jumped in the car at once in pajamas and all. When we got there we all ran inside and saw my grandpa sitting there and we rushed him to the hospital. He lived but his heart only works at 30% now and if he died then, I am not sure what kind person I would be today.

talmadge

When I was in school most of my school experiences happened in the south Salem school district, kindergarten through 7th grade but that was all about to change when I hear my mom saying we are moving to Independence and that I was going to be attending Talmadge middle school. That rang through my ears most the night.. It was so hard to believe I was going to be switching schools I was really popular and everyone knew me, my favorite teachers were there like Mr.Smith he was my favorite. But a week after that conversation went on my mother came up to me and said "get packing Morgan we are leaving." I cried for a couple days then I went to school had to tell everyone I was leaving. Soon after we we're packing and moving into the new house. I knew right off the bat i didn't like it I had to share a room with my sister. The school was one of the worst places I have ever been. everyone was so different then me and I couldn't relate to anyone. But after a year you sort of get used to things and then we moved agian to a place that was better than Independace but not as good as South Salem, West Salem and thats where I am till this day.

my home

The place I consider home is my best friend I knew for ten years she is pretty much a sister to me, her house is all the way in south Salem so I can barely make it out there most the time. But I know that I always have a place at there household. Her dad is my dad. Her mom is my mom. Her siblings are my siblings. There is so many memories in that house, ill never forget them. When i think house I think of when you look at one corner in the house and remember something that made you laugh. Every where I look in that house I break out in laughter because of the stupid stuff that we all did when we were little kids, nothing can take those memories go away they will be with me till I die and I'm pretty sure that my family will be too.

my visit with the god of music

if i was to go somwhere out of the United States it would be Paris. I've walked by the Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. Its a beautiful morning, I look over and see the grave of my hero Jim Morrison's statue just staring back at me, this is the only reason why i came here was to see the grave of my dead icon. Bringing my ipod ill be listening to: Light my Fire, Peace Frog, The End, Break on Through, and so much more. Just admiring the grave before me. Waiting for my friends to show up and look at this master piece with me, I can picture him on stage in leather pants singing his inspiring songs not really caring about what everyone thinks about him. his voice rattles through my ears i would do anything to live this day again. just sitting next to the best artist ever and a man who influanced my life so much.
