-Every Russian and American space voyage has included chocolate bars.
- Bananas can set of radiation sensors in US airports.
- Potatoes can kill you. Potatoes have a chemical called solanine which can cause diarrhea, vomiting, sore throats, or coughing and wheezing. However, more severe cases include paralysis or death. But no worries there hasn't been a death due to solanine in over 50 years (in the U.S).

- Your teeth grow before birth
- Feet can produce a pint of sweat of day

- Left-handed people have a higher chance of dying than right-handed people. I believe this is because chainsaws are made for right- handed people.

I don't really know

what I've done to deserve this. I don't know why you've lied to me about her. I don't know why you texted her, talked to her, or even thought of her when you knew how upset I get when I think of her. You fuck with my head, way too much. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of crying and embarrassing myself in front of other people. I just wish instead of hiding it, you'd tell me the truth.​

Sacrificial Love by: Kam Huds

"It's amazing... the lengths people are willing to go for the people they love. From lovers, to siblings, to parents, to friends, to pets. When you're heart gets truly attached to someone, there's no telling what you'll do for them. My name's Kam and in the following audio you'll hear about the boundaries and lines that people cross and the risk and sacrifices people make for the one's they love."

No Bounds On Love

Sunglasses

The memory of that day
Still rests in my head
That hot, sticky heat
The calm water below

I still see her standing there
With him in her arms
Eyes shaded from the sun
Like a man in black

I return to the pond
Perhaps looking for fish
A cry, a yelp
As her covers pierce the surface

The memory of that day
Still rests in my head
The way she laughed
To keep him from crying

Maybe his eyes hurt
The sun's grin just too strong
Or he wanted her all to himself
Maybe

Or maybe that’s one of those cute things
Those things that babies do
That lets you know they’re ready to be put down

Alarm Clock!

My alarm clock really annoys me sometimes.  Usually, when it gets accidentally unplugged, it refuses to go off the next morning despite the fact that it is set.  When it gets unplugged, I anticipate it not going off so I make sure that I set my cell phone, also.  However, this morning it wanted to be completely rude and not go off even though it was never unplugged.

Thankfully, I woke myself up only eight minutes late.  I quickly jumped out of bed and stared at my alarm clock.  It was definitely set for 6:30 am.  It just decided it wanted to do it's own thing and be IDIOTIC.

Damn alarm clock.

I never know when your gonna show up, but I know you'll always come.
Even though you bring me pain I know I need you in my life.
Yeah sometimes you can ruin my whole day but I guess it's worth it.
But the thing I hate most is when you come at the worse possible time because you know when I'm in the middle of something important.
That doesn't stop you thought, you always have to make a statement.
Guess I should thank mother nature for that smh.
Wouldn't have it any other way though.

Someday

A week or so ago I wrote and recorded a song. Theses are some of the lyrics I wrote and thought I would share. They are not my best but I do like them and my friends said they absolutely adored it. This is also quiet big for me for I never share my lyrics I write outside of my friends. SO um yeah here they are.

Even though the road has been hard. Even if tears have fallen now there is hope for the sun to appear, to dry them all away and guide me on. Though there is the weight trying to be what others want I keep all my dreams tucked inside my heart. Some how I will find the strength to keep moving on past this pain. Following this secret dream in my heart. Someday it will lead me to where I belong. To a dream that is true and to love that is so pure

Alicia En El Pas De Las Maravillas

Natalie Sanchez
Alicia En El País De Las Maravillas por Lewis Carroll
​La historia que estoy leyendo ahora es Alicia En El País De Las Maravillas por Lewis Carroll. El genero del cuento es ciencia ficción, aunque algunos consideran el libro un cuento de adas. El trama se trata de una niña llamada Alicia que sigue a un coneja hasta que se cae dentro de un hueco en un árbol. Sigue cayendose, hasta llegar a un mundo misterioso, adonde se tomó un liquido para encogerse y se comió un pastel para crecer otra vez. Hasta ahora, está atrapada en un cuarto chiquito porque creció demasiada grande. Pienso que pronto, ella va a hacer amigos en este mundo misterioso y va descubrir más de este mundo. Alicia va a tener una aventura. La única personaje mayor que he visto hasta ahora es Alicia, y el conejo. También había mencionado Carroll a la hermana de Alicia, y a su gato, pero estos son personajes muy menores. Hasta ahora me gusta el libro porque es muy diferente a los otros libros de fantasía. Es muy divertido y puedo imaginar todo lo que está pasando en el libro en mi mente; como si fuera una película. Este libro se relaciona con mi vida porque hay veces cuando estoy tan estresada y tengo tantas cosas pendientes que siento que quiero tener una aventura divertida como Alicia lo está teniendo. Le recomiendo este libro a las muchachas adolescentes que les gusta soñar. Esto es un libro para soñadores y niños de corazón.
