I made this using images…

I am open minded and teachable, I am open to new experiences.
I wonder how many friends I will make in my new school.
I hear in my mind their voices, I think of what they will say to me.
I see them playing with eachother, having a good time.
I want to be their friends, even though I am always abit scared.
I am open minded and teachable, I am open to new experiences.

I pretend that I can bring people together.
I feel sad when I see someone all alone.
I touch their hearts by speaking kind words.
I worry that I won’t find any friends to talk to.
I cry whenever I feel rejected or when people don’t like me.

I am open minded and teachable, I am open to new experiences.

I understand that many people are intolerent and deceitful.
I say that we can all change for the better.
I dream that we can all live together in peace.
I try to be respectful to other people’s ideas.
I hope we will all make the world a better place to live.
I am open minded and teachable, I am open to new experiences. ]]> http://www.pebbledtoes.com/moncarnet/2007/12/18/i-am/feed/ 0 http://www.pebbledtoes.com/moncarnet/2007/12/15/thumbs-up-cookies/ http://www.pebbledtoes.com/moncarnet/2007/12/15/thumbs-up-cookies/#comments Sat, 15 Dec 2007 15:29:21 +0000 pascale http://www.pebbledtoes.com/moncarnet/2007/12/15/thumbs-up-cookies/ ThUmBs-Up

Those blue turquoise waves gives me a shrill every time I see them. I vaguely remember that day I almost drowned while swimming.
About a year ago in France, I went to a beach with my mum, my brother, and my sister. The weather was really nice, the sun shining brightly, and the wind was cool. Walking, down the stone steps, the smooth, soft sand touched my feet as I began to race across it. Setting my towel down on a spot by a bumpy rock, I wiggled my way across the umbrellas and towels, and then, I stopped when I reached the beautiful turquoise waves. I stuck my toe out, putting it in the water to check if it was cold…it was perfect. I beamed off, the water splashing behind me, running until my feet could touch the bottom no more. The waves drifted me back, but I swam further, as hard as I could. Then, seeing my mum waving her arms and yelling to me to come back, I paddled like a dog. I liked being out at sea when it is deep, because it feels like I am lost somewhere.
Then, all of a sudden, I felt the water behind me beginning to rise. It felt really strange having a wave behind u go up all of a sudden. Looking back at it, I saw it was massive. Feeling scared, I tried to swim faster than it, but it caught up to me and pulled me down. I couldn’t get back up, but my legs were to tired to swim up to the surface. The salty water stung my eyes so I closed them shut. I couldn’t see anything. I twisted, turned and churned all around. Opening my mouth and all this water entered it. Suddenly, I couldn’t breath, I was dieing.
Several seconds later, finding myself on the shore, I began to cough up water. How did I get back to shore? I probably floated back…or maybe I fell unconscious…who knows… I shook my head and wiped my eyes. I was alive. I could feel the water against my legs. I looked at it with fierce eyes.
Anyway, the next time you go swimming at the beach, make sure you don’t get caught in a wave like that cause I’m telling you it ain’t pretty. Drowning at sea is something I will remember forever.

THE END

I think I have MORE singers and actors but I guess I have no more room… lol… I can’t even remember their names…
