Swine Flu

This whole Swine Flu situation is really scary. The symptoms are just like the regular Flu and it could be easily caught if you don't wash your hands and avoid people who are coughing or sneezing a lot. So my advice is to wash your hands constantly and just stay clear of all the symptoms.

Most Influential Teacher

The teacher that I would have to say that has influenced me the most is Mrs. K. When I was in athletics and so down on myself she made me strong and taught me to never give up. I never had a coach that really told me that I was a good athlete or that I was improving but she did. She made me want to work hard and show everyone that I could be be an athlete.

Senior Quote

There's a month until

Graduation and moving away

But time is standing still.

I look at the calendar and now it's April.

Everyone is sad about that May date,

But I just can't wait.

If I stay
I'll be just the same,
just as my family that went with unconquered dreams,
unconquered goals, and unconquered future.
Staying behind to take care of the kids,
take care of family matters.

Just let me free,
and let me be.
For I want to start a dream.
A dream not left unfinished,
a dream made and not forgotten.

Dear Church and Community,

I know you all believe I am a witch but I swear i'm not. I love God and when I die I want to be in heaven with him not hell. The Devil is working in your heads to make you believe I am a witch. Please just give me a chance to prove myself a good person, I have a family that needs me. I will not let you down.

God bless,
whitney mithlo

Maid goes mad and stabs baby!!!

SHANGHAI — A 20-month-old Shanghai girl was recovering Thursday after her family's maid, angry at her employers, put her on a chopping block and slashed her face with a kitchen knife, police said.

Police in the southern Shanghai district of Nanhui confirmed the attack, reported in the state-run newspaper Shanghai Daily. They refused further comment.

The baby's mother was also injured while trying to wrestle the knife away from the maid after she heard her daughter screaming late Tuesday night, the report said.

The newspaper carried a photo of the baby showing her with a long gash running across her chin from one jaw to the other. Doctors used 130 stitches to close her wounds, it said.

Police arrested Zhang Xuexia, 47, who was said to be angry because she believed the family was planning to fire her.

Many Shanghai families employ domestic helpers from the countryside, and relations can often be tense, especially around the time of the Lunar New Year, the country's biggest holiday.

The report said that Zhang, who like many maids in Shanghai was from nearby Anhui province, thought the family planned to send her back to her village because they bought her a ticket to go home for the holiday, which begins Jan. 25.

The family said they gave her the ticket to let her go back to see her family.

Through the Eyes of Fancy!!

Hi my names Fancy I was born April 17 and was the only girl out of 5. My brothers picked on me all the time and would never let me play with them. Then one day this girl and her mother came and looked at us. She seemed really nice, she always wanted to hold me. Her name was Whitney. That day was the greatest day ever because she took me home with her, it was a little hard to leave my brothers but not really. It was a long drive home so I just played with whitney, I was really starting to fall in love with her. Finally, we made it home and went to this big store and she had to hide me in her purse because I wasn't supposed to be in there. She bought me all kinds of different things like food, a bed, clothes,and toys. I felt like I was having a dream but it was only better than chasing rabbits. Then we finally made it to her house and I met all of her family and it was pretty tiring because they would not put me down, but whitney saved me. I loved my new home except the cat Cowboy, he was rude and always tried clawing me. But eventually he treated me good and I live happily ever after with whitney and her family. :)
