I admit I don’t really take care of my teeth, but I want to. How do you turn a want into a driving passion? If I learned to do that I could finish any on my little list. Maybe if my teeth are clean then The Tooth Fairy might give me a little cash for the effort. Mmm… Something to think about.

How I did it: I did it naturally, my mother her mother and my brother and sister all write poeticly. I'm the only one who does it on a daily basis. As a girl I always wished I could be smart like my sister and hoped I could have something in common with my family (being the odd one out). When my Grandmother died after a time my mother wrote a beautiful poem about her mother, and it only made me want to write beautiful things like that even more. M… Read how I did it…
I don’t know what’s wrong with me (since everyone I know says I have problems), I just can’t feel all the pain others do. I say mean things but to me it’s just the truth. I know the truth can hurt, but it doesn’t hurt me. All I think is “Well, that’s true, I do do that” when I do open up though I cry and people think I’m being emotional and that means danger or really not understanding behavore from my brother. I want to be a strong black women and stay away from crying when ever need be but tears just come out sometimes. I’m just a kid and I admit I have the heart of a finished stuborn bull, but I’d like to understand my matadors instead of just fighting them.
Some time this week I plan on sticking to at least one of my short stories and keep it crisp and clean. Can you believe I only have four completely finished completely edited short stories. And the ideas keep flooding in. Well I doubt I’ll be all alone on this goal; I plan on taking a writing course soon (if my parents agree to pay) and that should help.
