I’ve decided to try something new. I’m taking an online class so that I can graduate early this december. In this class I have to write Response Journals. I think that these jornals will make wonderful blog entries since i started this blog to write about anyting that came to mind. Here’s the most recent one. Let me know what you think.

Response Journal #7
I must say that my grandfather, Ken —–, faced death without even blinking. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He never acted like he had cancer, not even when he could only lie in bed and wait for God to call him home.
He lived his life as if nothing had happened; he was still the same old “Grampa.” He loved unconditionally, went to church, went to work, and helped Gramma in every way possible. We all knew what was coming but we never spoke of the end. It was too painful.
On Thanksgiving Day in 2005, my family was getting ready to go over to my grandparents’ house when my mother received a call from grandma….
Grampa had died. He wasn’t afraid and left with love in his heart. My Gramma had gone into Grampa’s room to check on him and see if the visiting nurse needed anything. When she left she said “I love you, sweetheart.”
“I love you, too,” was what he replied with his last breath. The nurse waited for my Grampa’s chest to rise again with the breath, but it never did. She waited and waited. Grampa was gone. She went down and gently broke the news to Gramma. She said that it was the sweetest and most peaceful death she had ever seen.
People say death is one of the scariest things to experience. But how would they know? They’re alive and have only maybe experienced it secondhand. I think that death must be a peaceful thing and that it does take a lot of courage to face it. I mean, no one wants their life to end because there is always much more to experience. No one knows when their time is and living or everyday life, to me, is very courageous in the fact that it can hit us and we won’t even know until we reach heaven.

Can You See Me?
Posted by: bratnick on: March 4, 2009
Today is a half day for school so i am sitting in the office *I’m an Office aid next hour* doing nothing but this….. Woo freakin hoo…. Mine and Mom’s best friend (she’s more like a sister to me) was fired from her job. It was the first time that she had been fired in her entire life…. Mom called me in hysterics…. I could barely understanfd her but from what i could gather Marissa had made a mistake on a report and she didn’t catch it. Mom got upset when they fired her and was sent home early. Hopefully things will be better today but i can only hope. Mom hasn’t posted a blog about it… It was very upsetting for her…. For both of us…… I’m just glad that it happened now instead of later and it being worse. I just wanna go home and go to sleep…. Please send Mom lots of love and/ or condolences. Thanks,
*Lauren*
ugh….

So… I guess today has been ok. I mean aside from having to sit next to my ex best friend and one of my exs texting me for advice and counselling constantly, I guess I’m doing alright……. I guess….. lol. Today is a random day and i would just like to blog them and share them with you.
*IF THINGS ARE TYPED WRONG IT’S BECAUSE I HAVE FAKE NAILS ON AND THEY DON’T WANT TO COOPERATE*
I just wish I could do my whole life over again. There are days when I DO wish that nothing had gone wrong with my parents’ relationship and that they were stilll together. Is that normal? I love Beth and I want her to adopt me as soon as we get the chance but i have those days where I can’t help but wish and wonder what things would be like. I remember one time when my parents first just initially split, my dad came over to the house that mom, Austin, and I were living in. He asked me and my bro if it would be ok if he stayed the night to try and fix things with mom. I straight up no. Every time I remember that, I get the feeling that I got when I told daddy that. My chest tightens up and I feel angry, annoyed, and I wanna cry…..
I get front row seats to seeing my grampa ( Mr. or Senor) slowly die. I feel like I’m losing 2 of my best friends… My dad seems a little more distant and Grampa is slowly fading away. My heart just breaks when my dad comes to pick me up and I can see the pain, the anger and frustration in his eyes. I want to fix it and I know that I can’t…. And even if I could, I wouldn’t know how. Well the bell just rang… I must go. Give me your opinions and good jazzy crap like that. I’ll try to get to a commputer soon.

Corey
Posted by: bratnick on: October 11, 2008
So if ya’ll read my momma’s blog, you know that I’m crushing on a guy named Corey….. Well now it’s not just a crush anymore……. We’re dating!!!!! It all started last week but yesterday was the”explosion” of our relatioship. We had a really big fight last night….. I was also 15oo ft. above the ground because of a loratab that I had taken…. Because of that one little loratab, I blurted out my feelingsfor Corey and how hard I was trying to let him see that I like him a lot……… I guess i got really mad because he told me that I was a girl who was a friend…… that got me a little mad….. The fight kept creeping up toward the climax of yelling. Well it got there…… I also cried because I was getting really emotional and Corey kept acting all nonchalant about everything………….
Today I really didn’t want to go to Algebra 2 and have to face Corey. My friend Tina dragged me there…… Literally. I got there and Corey had a huge smie on his face….. He was smilingbecause he was rememebering how high I was last night….. How nice…. That’s exactly how I want to remembered as….. a druggie…… I didn’t think that it was funny because I couldn’t remember anything that happened the night before except for me crying my eyes out……….. I hate crying whether people can see me or not….. I’m like a man that way lol…. But anyways, we worked things out and talked…… and kissed…… but mostly talked….. My mom knows the whole story…… lol…
If you have any advice on keeping a boyfriend, please let me know because i don’t plan on letting this one go any time soon.

Today i get to have a mother/daughter – relaxation day with mom. Today we’re going to go school shopping for supplies and clothes. we also getto go to a spa party. I really need that after the first week of school. lol. After that we are going to get our hair cut. Hopefully after that we will get our hair dyed by my aunt. I’m thinking that i want to dye my hair darker than it already is. Prolly dark brown or black. Hmmmmm….. So many decisions. lol. I’m very excited for today. I won’t have to deal with my little sister or brothers as tag alongs. I totally hate that. This weekend I’m also going to be an only child. yay!!!! I love hangin out with my parents all by myself. We have some good times. lol. Well my last post was about how I had a boyfriend. Here’s an update: I have been single since April. He broke up with me 2 days before prom! Two girls who were in drama with him and in choir with me had told him that I had been makingout withmy ex-b/f (Chris) on a choir trip. Of course, this is not true. One of the girls has been out to get me since 3rd grade. She has always tried to be my best friend because she was jealous of me. Shewouldbe really nice to me and hang out with me, but then she would stab me in the back. After giving her a second chance in 5th grade and her blowing it, I decided that she didn’t even deserve to be acknowledged by me. I have avoided her for the past 6 years and it’s worked out pretty good. Until April…. Now when someone asks if I know who she is, automatically say thatsomeone by that name does not exist. That has been working excellent. lol. But so yeah. I have been single since April. GO ME!!!!! lol. Well, I must now say goodbye to you,my loving fans. I must go and get ready for my fabulously busy day!
