MY TRIP TO VEGAS!!!

Getting the chance to go visit Vegas, there are a few places I would most likely visit.

The first place I would visit is the Tournament of Kings. You get to whatch kings joust while eating with your hands! YUM!

The secound place I would visit is the Adventure Dome Theme Park. It is an amusement park with the world's only indoor double-looped, double-corkscrew roller coaster! AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

The third place I would visit is the Gameworks on the Las Vegas Strip. It is an entertainment strip with over 250 games, the world's tallest free-standing rock climbing structure, a full-service restraunt, and two snack bars! LET'S PLAY!

The fourth place I would visit is the Lion Habitat and MGM Grand. It contains waterfalls and lions in a 5,000 sq. ft. showcase! RAWRRRRRRR!!!

The fifth place I would visit is the Dolphins at the mirage. This 2.5 million-gallon dolphin habitat is home to a family of bottlenose dolphins.SPLASH!!!

The sixth place I would visit is the Manhatten Express. It is a ride that is 203 ft. tall! You drop down 144 ft. at 67 MPH. SWISH!!!

The seventh place I would visit is the Fremont Street Experience. It is a spectacular computer generated light and sound show. BRIGHT!!!

The eighth place I would visit is the Cinima Ride of Ceasars Palace. Using real military quality, flight stimulators for the motion systems,  all of your experiences feature a platented 3-D ride film system which makes you feel as though you are right in the middle of the action! BOOM!!!

The ninth place I would visit is the Shark Reef. Underneath is the " Deep Blue Sea" made inside a hotel! SHARK!!!!!

The last place I would visit is the Fountains at the Bellagio Hotel. The water is lighted up! SPLOSH!!!!

MY CACOON!

This post is on a writting we had done during Writting workshop. I chose "The Cacoon" writting because it was my favorite. Here goes.

My cocoon is a big room under the ocean. It's made entierly of glass. Really thick glass because so it won't leak. The bed is clear so you can sleep while looking under sea. There is a section with books up to the ceiling ( I love to read). I'll have a copy machine so that what money I have, I can copy it. In, my cacoon it is not illigal.There is also an elevator so I can go to surface to buy food.

This is my cacoon. I chose for it to be under the ocean because I love the ocean and always have. I've alwasys wanted to go scuba dic=ving so this way i can go under and not have to come back up.

"SOLID LEAD" WRITTING

Did you know Washington is the wettest state in the USA? It is also very cold. Now, Washington is not the only cold and wet place. But it is defiantly the wettest. How do I know this so well, you may ask? I lived there!
My dad joined the military when i was about 8 years old.When we moved to Washington, I relized just how cold it accually was. As time went by though, I was able to get used to it.

Although, not everyday was cold and wet. There were somedays where the weather was in the 90's. That was when you went around post and hang with friends or with family. Other day's when it wasnt pouring rain, we would go outside and run out back, we wouldn't leave the house. And then, when it was poiring, you invite your friends over and you spend the day in the house.

Even though it is cold and wet, I still encourage people to go. If you go, I hope you love it just as much as I did!

MY NAME MEANS.....

My name is Shayann. It was originally supposed to be Cheyenne. My mom had a dream that this little girl cam up to her and said it was "Shayann." That is how I got my name.

My name is unique. So I thought I could take my name, split it into the two words it makes, find the definition of both, and put them together to make one. The first part is "Shay," the second "Ann". This is what I found.

"Shay" means Hawk. A hawk is a type of bird that has good eyesight and also looks out for hazardous events. I believe that this does relate to me because I try to look out for people in need.

"Ann" mean gracious or merciful. Gracious mean pleasing and merciful means kind-hearted. I beleive this relates to me too, because I am try to be kind-hearted to most people, that is pleasing.

Altogether, Shayann means I am a pleasing and kind-hearted person who looks out for others.

I beleive my name fits me because I am a kind-hearted person who tries to think about others before myself. The pleasing part is not up to me. It is up to the people around me. Hopefully most people find me pleasing. But if not I wont let it bother me. It is just the feeling of helping someone that keeps me going. Another thing is some advice I've learned. " Don't sit and wonder what people think about you or how you look. If you do, your not living, just existing."

So in conclusion, I think my name does suit me. I've always like the uniquiness of my name, but now I can like the meaning of my name, too.

MY WEEKEND HOLDS......

My weekend is going to contain alot. First off I've got my sister, Remington, birthday to go to. She is turning 3 and this will be the first birthday of hers that I go to. Her first one was when I lived in Washington state. Second, I didnt get told about it till the day before and we had made plans for that day.

Then the next day is my brother, Andrew's, birthday. This will be his first and I hope he loves it just as much as we want him to.

Then on Monday, my family is going to Louisville to the water front to take family pics for our summer pics, facebook pics, and my blog pics. That night we are going to the OLD SPEGHETTIE FACTORY for supper. We found that we liked the place in Washington state while down at the ocean front.

We miss being able to go to the ocean front almost every weekend, so we are going to pretend that the water front is the ocean front and that we are back in Washington, or at least I am.

I hope my weekend is as much fun as it sounds. Well, wish me luck. :)

This Weekend!!!

This weekend was awesome. We had everything planned to where we was going to go to the lake and get some rocks and when we got home we were going to paint them and put them in Memaw's flower bed.

When my aunts and their children got here we went out back for a little while to let the babys run around before we went to the lake. After a while out back it was finnaly time to go to the lake.

When we got to the lake you could see how low the water has gotten. It looked like you could litteraly walk across the water and it come no higher than your knees. We didnt see any ducks to feed so we went to Alligator Dock 2.

We played at the park for a little while and then headed down the hill to see if we could find any ducks. My youngest cousin got stuck in the mud and strted to sink. He started crying so I went to help. When we got out, we were all muddy. i was muddy up to myv ankles. We ended up walking for a while so that way after we rinsed our feet we wouldnt get mud back on them.

We walked for a while and my Memaw thought she saw one. She went to it to throw some bread to try to get it come to us, when she did, she found out that it was a plastic duck.

Then on Sunday, we cleaned the vehicles. I got soaked doing so. It was fun though. anyways, this has been one of the best weekends ever.
