My Dream Vehichles

Ever since I can remember I've always wanted a truck. The main reason is because I had a friend who used to have a monster truck and I have always loved it! So I figured that I didn't want a monster truck because it is lifted to much off the ground. But instead I want a truck that's lifted a little and have nice tires and rims also it has to have a good body frame and color.

This bike is a Yamaha r1 and it is my favorite bike because its nice and fast. I also like it because its red and red is my favorite color.

{{....Colombia....}}

Somethings that I learned about Colombia is that they are a very poor country with a lot of problems. They have major gang violence over there and are also still in war. Another thing is that they have to pay for schooling.

~Taco Bell~

We were at Travis' house and we were all hanging out and unloading things. Then Sub got hungry and wanted to go to Taco Bell. We all got in the limo and started driving down Commercial, while driving we saw one of their friends and we started racing. The ex cop car smoked us in the limo by barely and we later got to Taco Bell that night. After we were all done eating we decided to go back to Travis' house. Kc and I were in the back of the limo while Sub and Sheen were in the front. Sub was driving really bad cause he was still racing the ex cop car. We were flying everywhere in the back of the limo, he had to hold me down so I wouldn't go anywhere. It was a really fun night, but the next day I realized that I had bruises all over my legs and arms.

Yesterday I went to Souths football game with my family and Chris. I'm not really sure who we played against but we won big time! In the process though we got 2 injured players. My buddy Justin got hit pretty hard and he got a concussion. He got carried off the field by a go cart, while the other guy got carried off by an ambulance. He got hit really hard and he couldn't move or anything, what happened was that his neck was sprained really bad. They both ended up in the emergency room that night.

First starting out it was very confusing, but it got easier because the teachers walked us through it. The part that I didn't like what so ever was typing the character letters. I typed the letters at least 10 times. All together though I think that it is going to be a good project because we can write about basically whatever.
