If I could live anywhere in the world, I would live at the house that I live at now. I have grown up there since the day I was born. Sure I moved a couple of times here and there but I always ended up right back where I started. My grandparents own the house, and it is my ultimate favorite place to be! Since I grew up here, I feel safe, relaxed and feel like this is where I belong. I love the house because I have so many amazing memories there. I know the area, and I know what my neighbors and neighborhood is like which makes me feel safer and secure. My family has also helped fix the house up with their own two hands, which makes the house even more special to me. If I look through photo albums, almost every photo would be in that house. This house means so much to me and my family and I could never picture my family without it.

If money were no object..
If we could benefit society without worrying about money, we would could all do what we are most passionate about. Of course, some of our jobs we could do no matter what. From doing these videos, I have learned that some people follow their dreams and others do jobs that could benefit them the most. My aunt, is persuing her dream job of becoming a nurse. Anyone could persue their dreams but it is up to them what they do in the end.

Chose 5 things you'd give up to save energy! Extra Credit.
I will honestly admit that I waste electricity everyday. I leave my cell phone charger and computer charger plugged in most of the day, leave lights on when I am not always in that particular room, take longer showers and leave my television on while I sleep. I want to change these habits because, for one, they are not habits that are good for me or the environment, and it can save my mother money. I leave my television on because, at first, I would just fall asleep while watching television. Now it is because I am so used to the lighting of the television and the sound, it is so hard for me to fall asleep without it. I always leave my chargers plugged in because I never really think about unplugging them. Leaving lights on when I am not always in that room is a bad habit, but I do it because it is very dark in my house already and the lights just help me see better. I already know that taking long showers is bad for the bill and the environment and I do not always do this but I do sometimes. I will change -or at least try to change- these habits and help save money and the environment.

My favorite book? :o
One of my favorite book would have to be Marked. I love this book because I believe the authors, P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast (mother and daughter), combined many different ideas, that are hard to maintain throughout the story. This is book one to the House of Night series. Zoey, a girl who attends a regular high school, is chosen by a "tracker"- someone who chooses vampyres- and marks her. "Marking" is when either someone attends the House of Night and change into a vampyre or the body rejects the change and dies. Her parents do not approve of her new lifestyle and believe she deserves this because she had been a "bad" child and deserves this. Her grandmother, although, helps and understand what she is going through and would do anything for her. The rest of the book and series is about the challenges she faces as she transitions into her new life as a vampyre.
