                        An odd to the Ocean

The big blue
You cover 3/4th of the Earth

Deep below the surface
There are many creatures.
That live in the big blue
from Whales to coral and everything in between

Some of these creatures are still unknown to us.
The lochness monster is one of the mysteries of the Ocean.

We must protect our waters.

From trash and oil spills  

Let us all Protect our Ocean

I am really back, promise!

I am really back, promise!

Hello! Sorry for the silence again. A lot has happened since my last post in October. So I would like to give you an update on what is going on.

1. As a new years resolution, I made the decision to start my spiritual journey. Since then I have done two groups Alpha and CRHP. I am signing up for a bible study at my church and have started my own routine with prayer and reading the bible.
2. I have a new job! I am now a Pre-school teacher in a daycare. I love being with the kiddos and working through all the struggles that go with working full time. As that being said I am no longer working at the children's museum on the weekend to give me a day to breathe and relax after a long week of fun with the kiddos.
3. All that being said I hope to be able to come back and post regularly. I am still working out the time line but, I hope you will give me a chance.

With all that, I would like to ask you a question and please leave a comment on your answer to this post. What would you like to see me do on this blog?  Some suggestions: poetry, short stories, just weekly update posts like this or something different? Let me know by commenting below. 

Thank you for being awesome!

I am Back!

I am Back!

I am back! After a long time focusing on school work and my job I am back for more. I hope you will take my apology for not writing in some time but, I plan to come back stronger than ever! 

You may be wondering what I have been doing. Well, I am working at my local YMCA doing the before and after school program working with children from grades kindergarten-fifth grade. Over the summer I did the Summer camp through the YMCA as well and really enjoyed myself. I am continuing to get hands-on experience to become a teacher.

Even though I have not been posting on here I have been working on my writing skills I still have plans to publish many more books in the future. 

Thank you for your support!

I Want Your Thoughts about a Video Blog!

 

Should I Start a Video Blog?

Ok, it has been a few months since my last post sorry guys. I have been busy with work and hanging with friends and Pokemon Go that I have not had time to post. I have been watching a video blog of a guy who lives in the UK, and it made me think. Would it be easier if I just did a video blog and uploaded to youtube? It would be cheaper for sure. I would not have to worry too much about hosting and stuff. And I could video my Pokemon hunts and some exciting new with my book and things like that. So I want everyone to comment either on my blog or facebook, twitter, google plus. Where ever and let me know your thoughts if I stop blogging and try a video blog. Or just try a few video blog and see how we can go from there.

Let me know in the comments bellow,

The Home Run

"Rub...Rub"

As the batter slides his feet

to home plate

"Ban...Ban"

As the bat

taps on the

plate

"Whoosh...Whoosh"

as the batter

swung the bat

"Whoosh"

The ball flew

out of the pitcher's

hand

"Crack"

The bat made

contact with

the bat

"Aww"

The crowd

reacted wide-eyed

"YA!"

the crowd

screamed

as the ball

flew out of

the park
