For our grade's field trip we went to the aquarium and to see the play A Christmas Carol. At the aquarium we went to the Titanic exhibit where we saw various things found on the titanic after it sunk. It was awesome. There was perfume bottles, cloths, dishes, furniture. When you entered to doors you would be handed a card that had a name of a person that was actually on the titanic, and a little about themselves. In the end you would get to find your name on a list and see if you lived or died. I lived.
The play was a wonderful performance and it was defiantly worth seeing. The young actors seemed to bring London to life. The typical told story of Scrooge and the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future was all understood by the audience. The scene transitions were very uniquely done with out curtains. The characters who played several people were never mistaken. I think that every family in the local area of the play needs to see this show.
Photography is my passion. Here you can experience my view of the world from behind the lens of a camera as I try and learn new things. As well as what the Lord teaches me through my walk with Him. He is guiding me every step of the way.

There once were to young men with the same breathing disorder. There lungs were clogged up with fluid, so there whole life they were forced to lye down in order to keep breathing. The two men were able to share we a hospital room together so they would not be alone. About everyday at the same time the nurse would come in and open the window for some fresh air. The man in the bed closest to the window would always describe what he saw the the other that could not see. He would say stuff like: "I see flowers", "there is children riding bikes down the street", "a man mowing the lawn" and so on.
The two men got to know each other very well from spending every moment of every day together. The one man that was unable to see out of the window was getting angry because he was not able to see everything too. The man by the window had a coughing fit one night because his lungs were filled with fluid and he could not breath anymore. But because of the man's jealousy he chose not to help his friend by pressing the button to call the nurse. The man in the bed farthest from the wall was thinking that if his friend dies then he might get to have the bed by the window and see outside.
The man died after hours of trying to breath. The next day the nurse came in the room and moved the greedy man's bed over to the window and opened it. Outside the man saw a brick wall. This goes to show that no matter how good something seems to be, it might never be what you think, and it can end with some bad results.

Rules?
When your parents tell you not to do something, or tell you to do something that may sound a little strange, I hate it when your friends "egg" you on not to do it, or say that it a stupid rule. When friends say that the thing you want to do is agree with them and completely disregard the rule.
One of my friends was told not to watch a scene of a certain movie before she went to a birthday party. Most of the people around her ere telling her that is wasn't a bad part, and they were trying to encourage her to watch it. Something that I did not expect to happen was for my friend to say: "Well, my mom told me that it was not a good part to watch, and I trust her." I was very happy that she stood up not only for herself, but also for her parents and their rules. I think that this is what we should do all the time. Sometimes what we want to do is not always the right thing. Plus parents have already taken the road that we have.
