Ryan Pinkowski

In online publishing we were asked to write about what Ryan Pinkowski does in his free time. I might not know for sure but I could take a guess. I’m sure Ryan does go to work and make some good money but other than that he has to do something else. Indeed I heard he has a band. His band is very popular and very well known throughout the Alden community. Most of the kids in High school always stop him to get his autograph. In fact he once signed someone’s neck, stomach, leg, arm, hip, etc. Ryan’s band practices every night in one of the guitarist’s basement. His band consists of a drummer, lead vocalist, and three guitarists. Ryan is the lead vocalist. Everyone in school never knew Ryan would be so skillful and know how to sing so well but truth is his voice is so powerful people go to sleep listening to his music. Ryan and his band are known as The Hero’s. They like to play country music and some other sorts of music. Ryan and his band try to play every weekend in the town hall. All sorts of children and even adults come out to support the band. Sometimes in the hallways I can hear people talk to each other about how good his band performed and how happy the crowd was. One day I did attend and the music was so powerful it stuck in my head and I couldn’t stop singing to their music. I got a chance to talk to the band and they told me every week the crowd gets bigger and bigger. Some day they hope to be famous and hold concerts consisting of millions of people. Everybody does like to dream but I do say they can make it as far as they want.

Sprained ankle :/

One time in my life that I was injured very badly and that I will never forget was my JV year of soccer. It had to be about four practices before our first game started that I had sprained my ankle. This awful accident occurred when Joelle Schwab and I were running after the ball and somehow I tripped on her foot and all we could hear was a big pop. I fell to the ground and was in shock. When everyone came over and asked if I was okay, that’s when I started crying even though I couldn’t feel any pain, because it was numb. I remember getting walked over to the bench by my teammates and looking over at the modified field and seeing my travel coach, Mr. Boling. When I saw him coming over I think I started to cry again because I thought I was out the whole season. Mr. Boling asks what I did and I told him and he responded by saying I’ll be back out on that field in no time! I told him I couldn’t feel my foot and it looked like it was getting bigger. He got me some ice and I think he called my mom. Later, when I got home my dad was at the kitchen table and my mom was cooking dinner , my dad looks at me and goes “What happened lyss?” all I remembered was limping away to the couch and bursting into tears. They came in and told me I’ll be back in no time. I really didn’t want to listen, all I wanted to do was cry and say my JV season of soccer was ruined. After about 3 weeks or so, I was back in action out with the girls and finished a very strong season with the JV girls.

Cindy Eggert :)

One person that i look up to would be my mom, Cindy Eggert. My mom is probably one of the nicest people, someone could ever meet. Everywhere I go with my mom she knows someone or will meet new people. She is so talkative she could probably write a novel everyday on what she talks about. I remember one day after church we went to tops and it took my mom about two hours because she talks so much. It was kind of funny because my dad, sister, and brother were all getting mad and I was too. I look up to my mom so much, she is my best friend. My mom also has a very big smile too, it’s so pretty! Some of her good friends usually joke around about how she smiles when she sleeps or talks in her sleep because those are the two things she always does. Not only is my mom the nicest person on this planet but she also is a very good cook and baker. When my friends use to come over they would come around dinner time and all they would say is “are you having a thanksgiving dinner?” I think Morgan said that one time. Now my friends usually come over later because of my work schedule. My mom and I are not really alike but her kindness rubs off on me, which is good. Since my sister, my brother and I were little my mom was a stay at home mom. My mom was very lucky to be able to stay home with us kids but now looking back I’m very glad she did. When we were all little my mom would also babysit other kids. One of those kids was Morgan Dulski. All of us would have so much fun because my mom would think of games, crafts, and songs to dance to before school. Overall, I’m proud to say my mom is Cindy Eggert.

Short story

During a fall / Halloween night when the wind was blowing, the leaves were falling, and the youngsters were getting ready to go trick -or-treating a young boy named Nate decided to dress up as a monster. His parents didn’t really care what he wanted to dress up as, so they indeed decided he could. When they took him to the store he was out of control, he didn’t listen and started to throw hissy fits every ten minutes. Both his mom and dad had no idea what in the world they should do. So instead of putting Nate in timeout they allowed him to run around the store and be very obnoxious. After leaving the store on the way home Nate started to act like a monster, yet his parents still had no clue what was going on. Finally when they reached his house, they let him out of the car and he ran straight to his room. That night Nate wondered around town with his parents jumping out at other kids his age, thinking he was a monster. His parents did not like it that much because Nate was being rude and made some of them cry. In fact, his dad decided to hold his hand for the rest of the night so he wouldn’t misbehave. Finally at the end of the night it was time to go to bed, and Nate vanished into the dark somewhere outside of his house. His parents did everything to find him but they couldn’t, all they did know was a monster who they call their kid was lost.

Bein a Boss

When I saw that question I didn't really know what to say because I never thought we would have to right a blog on what a boss is but if you insist I will. Being a boss you are in control of a lot of people. In order to be a boss you have to take care of your business that you’re running and make sure they are doing everything in the right way. Some people who are the boss shouldn’t be because they don’t do a good job of it. I’m sure being the boss you get blamed for a lot of your actions because you have a majority of people against one person. At work I get called a princess and one day I walked in and they handed me a princess pin. I honestly don’t know why but they do and I think that’s what people do to Nate? I don’t really know because this is a really weird blog in case you didn’t know. Mr. Currin maybe you should get him a pin that says boss. Then we can all right about when you gave him the pin, how excited he was, just another crazy/exciting blog like this. Writing this blog made my head want to blow up; such a crazy question to answer and then keep writing about is very hard. Especially when you don’t really know him and you wonder why he calls himself the boss. If you do not know most people call themselves things like that because it’s fun to do and to joke around with. I don't know all i know it its more than 250 words :)

So creepy!

When being asked to describe the creepiest or scariest thing I’ve ever done I honestly never thought I would have to answer a question like this because most people think whatever I do I am still a creep. Totally just kidding but on the other hand I would have to say knowing where Daniel Paille lived and saw his wedding pictures online which are on his family’s website. The only reason I knew where Danny lived is because Morgan my best friend since three years old, her father was working on the house right next to his. I guess her dad saw the dog and it was very big. When her dad told her she texted me immediately because she knew I was obsessed with him. I literally died when I heard that and wanted to go to his door and sell cookies or something to him. Since then I never got the chance to because he got traded to the Boston Bruins. That was a very depressing day  I remember it was after a soccer game and I scored two goals or I think I did and I end up getting twenty texts from different people saying Paille got traded. The other reason why I would call myself a creep is because I found his wedding pictures somehow. To be honest that was another sad day!! I showed just about everyone and all I could hear was “awe there so cute” but then again they are. Finding their wedding pictures is also kind of creepy on how your life can be so known on the internet for the whole world to see.

Best Classes

I don't really have a favorite class but if i had to pick between a lot of classes, i would probably choose two of my classes now which are Environmental Science with Mr. Domino and Online Publishing with Mr. Currin. I think Environmental Science is such a fun and exciting class. Mostly every week I think we get to watch a movie about exciting new things. Mr. Domino is a very exciting teacher so overall the whole class is a total blast. Also to top the class off my best friend is in there so it makes it ten times better. When you have friends in your classes it makes it a lot better because you will always have someone to talk to. Mr. Domino will always make the class fun in some sort of way even if it takes him to dance or sing it is still a fun class. Especially when we do our labs, instead of them being boring they are actually very fun to do because he makes them exciting. The other class I like to be in is Online Publishing with Mr. Currin because he is also a cool teacher. This class is also very fun because of all the freedom you get. Even though you get certain deadlines it’s also an easy class to keep a very high grade in the ninety’s. Every week we get to write three blogs that have to be a certain length. I actually like it and don’t mind it at all because we don’t get graded for our thoughts but except for how many words it contains. In conclusion, both of these classes make my day go by very fast and I love it!

Favorite Meal

I don't really have a favorite meal because my mom is a very good cook and makes the best food out there, but if i really had to make a choice i would have to say her spaghetti dinner is really really good. To me pasta is so good I could have it every night. When my mom makes her spaghetti dinner she makes garlic bread with it and an Italian salad. Whenever she asks me what I would like for dinner I reply by saying spaghetti! The taste of the spaghetti is so good I always wonder why something so simple like that tastes so great. Then after eating the spaghetti and moving onto the Italian salad just makes the whole dinner so good. My mom knows how to make a good dinner. Whoever knows my mom they know she is a good cook/ baker. People who hang out with me, my sister and my brother know they will get fat because of all the goodies she makes. During Christmas she makes these delicious cookies that literally are to die for. Sometimes if my friends are lucky I will bring them in a cookie or a delicious brownie. After any dinner she will sometimes make a treat but she usually doesn’t only when people are coming over or friends. Since us kids all work it’s hard for us to all eat together but when we do it’s kind of fun. Since I’m the baby of the family I’m usually the one who gets picked on of course. Overall, I love the way my mom cooks and she amazes me on how her food can taste so good!

Favorite band

One of the best bands ever to me would have to be Rascal Flatts. I love Rascal Flatts, they’re amazing! Whenever I hear their music I want to get up and dance. The lead singer, Garry LeVox sings so well I can just tune out everyone and just listen to him. I went to two concerts of Rascal Flatts so far and can’t wait to go to more. The first time I saw Rascal Flatts was at the HSBC arena which is the home of the Buffalo Sabres and Bandits. The graphics they had and the music they played made me realize that was the best concert I ever went to. I attended this concert with Nicolette, Joelle, and Jessica, we all had a very fun time. Are seats were in the 100 section and we sat directly across from the stage. Rascal flatts always likes to please their fans they even put a little stage in the middle of the arena and walked across a little bridge to get there. The graphics they put up when they jam to their music is so cool. The other concert I went to of theirs was this past summer at Darien Lake. Rascal Flatts really rocked the stage and proved they are a very good band. This trio can perform such good music they are a crowd favor. I attended this summer concert with my cousin Jessica Hey. Jessica and I love Rascal Flatts a lot so we had a very fun time dancing and singing to their music. I can’t wait to get the chance to see Rascal Flatts on stage again!

Disturbia

Another movie that I love to watch is Disturbia which was released on April 13, 2007, many young kids rushed into the theaters to watch this thrilling and scary movie and yes I was one of them. Before the movie came out I remember a bunch of people talking about it coming out and can’t wait to be able to watch it. Disturbia is an American thriller film directed by D.J Caruso and executive produced by Ivan Reitman. Disturbia stars Shia LaBeouf as a teenager who thinks he saw his neighbor murdering a woman by spying on him while being on house arrest. Shia LaBeouf plays the character of a teenager named Kale who has a bad life which any teenager would envy. Kale is kept inside his house and soon he realizes this hot girl next door. Kale and Ashley then spy on the neighbor on who they think is a murderer. By doing this it not only raises tensions on them by lying but it also could risk their life of dying. Shia LaBeouf is a very good actor who plays an amazing role on being the target after the old man sees him spying. After seeing this movie it not only became one of my favorites but also kept me entertained and my eyes never drifted off of the screen. After my whole family saw Disturbia my mom decided to buy it so we can now watch it whenever we please to. I remember the one part when the guy was in his house ‘pretending’ to date his mom but really just to get back at the young boy spying on him. To me this movie is amazing and Shia LaBeouf being the star of the show makes it even better. Disturbia is definitely a movie I recommend to watch if you never have.

The Notebook

Another favorite movie of mine would be The Notebook directed by Nick Cassavetes starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. The Notebook is a love story about an elder man reading to an elder woman on a regular basis. The elder man brings alive the love story between a young couple who were separated between World War II who were then reunited seven years later. Both the man and woman have taken different paths because the letters he wrote to her never made it to her. Though she can no longer remember her youth or basically anything his words give her the ability to relieve her past and her uncontrollable love for him as a teenager. As teenagers, Noah (Ryan Gosling) and Allie (Rachel McAdams) go through a wild love/hate relationship. The young couple is soon separated by Allies rich parents who think Noah isn’t right for her. Years later, they both meet up again and Allie has to pick between her soul mate and upper-class man. This spectacular story has a special meaning to Noah as he is telling his aging wife Allie about their love story. Throughout this whole love story it gave me the chills and i thought it was so cute. How much he cared for her was so sweet and adorable. The Notebook truly is an amazing movie and if you never seen it i suggest you should, it's very good.

Hairspray

One of my favorite movies of all times would have to be Hairspray. Hairspray is a musical which is about a teenager who makes it on a local television show and tells Baltimore about integration. I can watch this movie about twenty times because it’s so interesting and i like the songs. Usually when i watch a movie it’s hard to keep me interested but when i watch hairspray it always keeps me entertained. I remember the first time this movie came out my grandma , my mom , my sister, my cousins and me all went to the movies and we didn't know which movie we wanted to see. My grandma goes let’s see Hairspray i heard it’s really good. My cousins and I all looked at each other and laughed because we thought it sounded stupid but really this show is amazing. When the show was all over we all looked at each other and said "Wow this show was really good, i want to watch it again". Ever since that day I most likely watched it about twenty times. Hairspray will always be one of my favorite movies and I can’t wait to watch it all over again.
