My Four Day Weekend!!

Where to start..
The only thing that I did this weekend was eat!! This weekend was a little fun because of my brother and his girlfriend came down from Kalamazoo to help celebrate Thanksgiving. Then on friday, I went to my nieces third birthday party. She was really excited because she got all spiderman toys, weird, I know. Then after that we all had a nice family ping-pong tournament, I absolutley sucked, which I thought was funny, but my partner didn't.

Thanksgiving!!

Thanksgiving means to me that the whole family gets together and has an awesome time... Every time we have Thanksgiving at our house, usually the whole family doesn't come but we still have an awesome time.  We don't really have special food but we have this awesome dessert that we call "Pink Stuff" it has pineapple, cottage cheese, cool whip, and strawberry jell-o.. It's amazing. In our family, we don't really have a tradition. Also, the reason we celebrate Thanksgiving is to celebrate everybody coming together and celebrating all that you're thankful.

Veterans Day!!

To Be Honest, Veterans Day means a whole lot to me! My grandpa served in the Army when the Vietnam War was going on. We recognize veterans because of all of the brave men and women who are willing to serve the country, which to me means risking their own lives in the process of protecting their own country. I personally would never join the Military mostly because the thought of killing someone makes me sick! I hate to say it, but I've never participated a Veterans Day parade. But maybe in the future, I will!!

Election

If only I could vote.. I would probably vote for Barack Obama! Though Romney has views on some issues that I agree with, he has more issues that I don't agree with! Mitt Romney wants to pretty much take away women's rights and health care screening for cancer, as a part of a family that has a bad history with problems involving cancer, I do not think that Romney has the right to say what we can and can't do with our bodies. Also, with the job rate, I believe that the economy is going up, slowly, but it's still going up. And last but not least, the overplayed commercials about the election are getting really old, and when the elections are over and so are they, I will be the happiest person alive!!
