Skiing

Hi readers!

I'm at Lake Tahoe right now. I like to ski, and usually, when we go, I rush right down the hill. I'm more a beginning intermediate level person. My problem is that when the snow gets icy, when people almost hit me, anything like that, I get REALLY scared. During this ski trip, it was kind of crowded. It was also a little icy. So, naturally, I froze. The first two days of skiing were frightening. But on the last day, it was amazing. I guess I got over it. Here are some tips if you ever get scared:

1. Keep telling yourself that you can do it.
2. Concentrate.
3. It might also help if you do something you love. Sometimes, when I'm skiing, I sing quietly. I have more fun that way.

Try these the next time you get a chance. Also, in the comments section, answer this question: Do you ski or snowboard, or do you just like to go sledding?

Fun Fact: Lake Tahoe is the second deepest lake in the U.S. It is also the tenth deepest lake in the world.

Happy Thanksgiving 2013!

It's Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving from Tween Blogger! I just want to say thank you to all of you who read my blog. I hope you have a good dinner with lots of food! My dinner has mashed potatoes with gravy, cranberry apple sauce, stuffing, rolls, pumpkin pie, and, of course, TURKEY! I can't wait to eat. I'm eating with my family and friends. I just got back from swimming and still waiting for dinner.
If you want to see the fun facts for today, scroll down to the post Thanksgiving. The fun facts are in there.

Be thankful!

Poem

What's up!

I have another poem to share with you all! Here it is:

Seasons

There are four seasons,

Fall, summer, winter, spring.

Some of the trees sway,

Others have birds that sing.

I really enjoy writing short poems about nature. Thanks for reading!

Fun Fact: 29% of Americans perfer fall, which makes it the favorite season among America. 

Adios,

Thanksgiving

Hello again!

Tween Blogger here! Thanksgiving is coming up, and I just wanted to share some of my feelings on this. Sometimes, we can be a little ungrateful. I know I can! When you catch yourself, think about what you already have. I haven't told you guys this yet, but I have a peanut allergy. It really sucks to see people all around you eat candy or chocolate or something that you can't eat (I'm a chocolate lover. I got a big sweet tooth, too). I learned to count my blessings. A good little activity to do during Thanksgiving feasts is to make a list of things your thankful for. It helps open up the dinner!

To celebrate Thanksgiving, I would like you to comment below on things that you are grateful for. Tell me all about it!

Fun Facts:

1. The original Thanksgiving feast lasted for three days! Nowadays, there's just a dinner.
2. There was no turkey. They ate ducks, geese, and deer.
3. No pumpkin pie. Pumpkin, but no pie.
4. No women or children. Just men. 50 pilgrim men and 90 Native Americans.
5. Pilgrims didn't wear fancy buckles or anything like that. They most likely wore rags.
6. There was seafood. No one would imagine that they ate seafood. 

Those are just some. There are lots more!

Thanks for tuning in,

Tween Blogger

Fun Things to Do

Hi readers!

You know how sometimes, you've finished all your homework, housechores, etc... there's nothing to do? Don't turn on the TV. Find something else. Here are some ideas:

1. Read. It doesn't matter what you read. Magazines, books, comics... they all work!
2. Find a fun craft. You might be a true artsy person at heart.
3. Paint or draw. Again, a little art never hurt. 
4. Call a friend and chat (with a parent's permission, of course). I just love to talk about random stuff with my buddies.
5. Make up stories. Occaisonally, I lay on my bed and start daydreaming. Then, if you want, you could write down the story and share it.

These are just a few suggestions. There are lots more that I'm sure are great! Try these out, and tell me which one is your favorite!

Veterans' Day 2013

Happy Veterans' Day!!!

I'm Tween Blogger here again with a poem. I wrote this for my school's Veterans' Day Chapel. I hope you like it!

We Thank You

Honoring those who fought in war,

For those who hid among the roar

Of gunshots and cannons on the shore.

We thank you!

Risking your life on land and air, 

You battled to show you care,

For America you did your share.

We thank you!

Now in our beds we lay,

Thinking of how you helped in so many ways,

Freely we can say,

"Happy Veterans' Day!"

I've been told many times that I have a writing talent. By teachers, by parents, and by friends. What do you think of this poem? Tell me in the comments section below!

Thanks for tuning in,
