cliff

story time every one this one is the story of the day that i feel down a clif. it was painfull and my fault too, but hey it makes a good story.


ok it happend this month last year. my friend natasha was staying with me because her mom and her step dad were off on their honey moon. it was a sort of rany affternoon and my mom told me and natasha to go and walk the dog. so we put on her leash and headed off. i was telling her tthat their was a beach acesess around my neibourhood. but there is a clif that we would have to climb down to get to it. (can you see were this is going). but there used to be a rope and i thought it was still there and i thought that we could climb down .....with the dog...well wearing shoes with no grip...on a rainy day...well i forgot my cell phone at home (can you say dumb idea!!). any way natasha thought that we could give it a try.

so we walked down to the beach acess. and natasha looked down the clif and she was the smart one who told me that maybe if we are going to climb down the clif we should tie the dog to a tree and see if we can make it without her before we try well taking her down. (i have a small sketched out dog so we would of had to carry down because she would be to affraid to climb down by her self). just to give u guys an idea of the cliff that i fell down. you know when you go on the bc ferrys heading to vancouver and you look to your left as it is pulling out and you can see that big sign that says cable....ya that was the cliff that i fell down. anyway the rope was no longer there so natasha decided to go down first. she got down easy did not trip or stumple or slid at all. seeing her do this i thought well that looks easy i can do this.

so i started to climb down. i was sliding down the dirt a little bit, and then when i was about half way down a lost my grip and i started to fall. oh and to make things worse i was more on my stomach then anything and i could not see were i was going. and there was a board with a nail sticking out of it on the bottem. luckaly natasha was fast she managed to slow me down and prevent me from landing on the board with the nail in it. oh sounds like the story is over but nope its not. once i wiped off my hands and made sure i was ok. me and natasha realized two things one it was impossible to go back up the way we came and two the tide was comming in. we ended up walking along the beach untill we saw an easier way up but this way was coverd with bushes. we ended up bush wacking our way up but first we had to take off out shoes because they had no grip at all and we were passing them up to each other well we climbed. we finaly go up and got back to the dog and walked home.

we were both wet, tired and pretty dirty. and i learned something from that experience. never leave without a cell phone, were shoes that you can climb in, and just becasue your friend can do something that looks easy does not mean that you can. ok hope you enjoyed this

love

love...we all have experienced it in some form or another, well all would agree that love is a good thing.. but i was thinking what is love, what does love mean. that word seems to be thrown around too much and these days. its signifigance is starting to wear down and the true meaning of what love is seems to be forgoten.
i looked it up and according to the dictionary love is :

1 a (1) : strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties
(2) : attraction based on sexual desire : affection and tenderness felt by lovers
(3) : affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests b : an assurance of love 2 : warm attachment, enthusiasm, or devotion 3 a : the object of attachment, devotion, or admiration b (1) : a beloved person : DARLING -- often used as a term of endearment (2) British -- used as an informal term of address
(4) a : unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another: as (1) : the fatherly concern of God for humankind (2) : brotherly concern for others b : a person's adoration of God
(5) : a god or personification of love


so my question is what does love mean to you?

re post street cone

so umm i took this off because i was dumb and thought that i was introuble...jezz i really need to learn how to take a joke, silly me. no andrew you cannot have my street cone go and find your own. anyway here is the story once again.


it happend this month i think around the 14 or something, around the middle of the month. any way first off the reason why there were street cones there was becasue there had been a car accednet and a car took out some of the overpass. so untill there was a replace ment part there for the overpass the north saanich guys had put a bunch of street cones down to warn people. every day when i would walk home i would see the street cone and i would find my self having the hurge to take it, i wanted that street cone. so one day well walking home i decided i was going to do that. i picked it up as i walked passed it but then half way across the bridge i chickend out and was unable to do it.

for the next couple of weeks my mom drove me to and from school so i had no chance to try and take it. but then soon i was walking home again. on the weeks that i was getting rides i notised that my cone was gone i thought some one else must have taken it (luckaly there were two.). so as i was saying i was walking home again and i saw the one street cone that had not been taken so i decided today is the day i am going to take that street cone and i am not going to chicken out. so i walked to it and out of the corner of my eye i saw the orginal stree cone that i was going to tak thrown in the bushes by the overpass. so i ran and got it.

feeling proud of myself for having my original street cone i walked across the overpass with pride. but then well i was almost done crossing the overpass the north saanich guys were driving underneath me and they saw me caryying the cone. so i boked it up the road. it was quite a work out considering i had most of my books in my back back (stupid heavy biology text book). i did not stop running untill i was convinced that they were not following me. but the path up to my house is by a hight way so every one who was driving bye could see me (this 17 year old girl with a street cone in her hands).

i decided to cut through this smaller but longer path that goes through the woods to my house so that i would not be seen. that was long. finaly i got home and now the street cone is siting in my bed room. which makes me happy. i told my mom this whole story and she thought it was funny. she was just happy that i am not tall enought to steal a street sign or anything of greater value (which i do not think i would do.. street sighn maybe).



so ya i am sorry about being lame and deleting this..it is back up. so does any body have any original ideas about what i shoud do with the street cone. i know that i am going to get everyone to sighn it for grad but then i am not sure if i should keep it, or put it back were i found it or even if i should make a times capsule with it..if anyone has any cool ideas let me know.
