The Lovely Bones

I think that when Susie's father said, "it's trapped in a perfect world," he meant that nothing could go wrong inside the snow globe. There wouldn't be any problems inside of that globe that could make the penguin feel lonely or sad because it was fake and nothing was wrong. In Susie's heaven I think that her world is pretty much perfect, knowing that heaven is the most perfect place you can be. Susie may feel like it's not exactly perfect because her family isn't up there with her, but i think it is pretty amazing to her to be up there in her near perfect heaven.

It was the summer before we started college so Chelsea, Kinslie, Campbell, Shelby, and I decided to take a road trip. We were all excited for the big trip to check out the campus and head out to Colorado. As I drove around Childress to pick everyone up they jumped into my car and started talking about how much fun it was going to be. Now that everyone was loaded into my car we were leaving childress and heading out for the first stop, the colleges. All of a sudden I head Kinslie yell from the back seat, "Ugh!" She had forgotten to get her camera and thought that she couldn't live without it so we turned back and got it. Walking out of her house she gently put the camera into her purse and then, finally, everyone was ready! After we had made it to the college campuses we were ready for the ride to Colorado. As soon as we pulled into the ski resort where we would be staying we saw so much white from all the snow. Since we hardly got to see snow this was amazing to us. Later we went skiing and a couple days after we went back to the big city of Childress, Texas to finish out the summer with our families and friends.


THE END :)
