The Joy of Spring Break


I am super duper ready for spring break!!!!! I can't wait until the day is over! Even though it's only 10 days, I am going to cherish these days like there's not a Summer break. The joy of not having to wake up tomorrow at 5:30 in the morning, and sit in class all day is terrific...!!!!! On Saturday my brother and I will be flying to V.A. I can't wait!!! My sister and my little cousin will be driving down there today. I'm so ready!... It's going to be warm too!!! So no winter coat for me!!!...
I love going to V.A because it's so beautiful, and totally different from being up here. It's 'soothing'---except for the plane ride-- The site seeing is amazing! and I get to go to Washington D.C all the time! People are nicer (times 10)
I like going to the restaurants, the food is no different, but much better.
I thank the people who had the thought of spring break. I truly do love them! I just wish it was at least 2 weeks instead.
The joy, the Joy, the JOy, the JOY of SPRING BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully I get some batteries for my camera, because I will be taking lots of pictures!

Invisible Children

There's a program called "Invisible Children" , regarding the children in Africa that has been kidnapped, killed, or forced to become a soldier. "The Rescue of Joseph Kony's Child soldiers", is based on what's happening in Uganda, then spread into the Congo, and the Central African Republic.

There's a man named Joseph Kony, who is the leader of the LRA(Lord's Resistance Army). The LRA is against people from northern Uganda, and they have abducted about 20,000 children since its rebellion }1987{.

The Invisible Children program is trying to find ways to help the children who have been abducted to get back to their families. Also they have been trying to get Kony to sign for peace. They have came close to success but Kony has been very rebellious. As of today Kony is still abducting children. He still hasn't signed for peace, he's still out there getting away with these horrible things, but the program is still trying.

On April 25,2009, come out and abduct yourself. Join the walk for a change.
