Week 32: English 3 Honors Memories

Most interesting part: Our reactions to stupid things/situations that happen in stories we read. We all think differently and sometimes we come up with stupid stuff just to make each other laugh (and sometimes it's not on purpose). I love it!

Least favorite part: When some of us don't follow along with the stories. It is really frustrating to have to update people with what is happening cause they don't know what happened! but i am happy to help them understand and hopefully get a good grade!

Thing(s) I learned or improved upon the most: I think I have improved on my grammar. Although I got a bad grade on my grammar test, I made stupid mistakes on it. That is something I really need to work on. I just rush through tests, I don't pay attention to the instructions or words that make the answer completely different, and I beat myself up for it afterwards. I will try my best to fix this.

Favorite memory: Hearing Hudson's laugh everyday, I love it.

Best thing about Hudson as a teacher: I love her LAUGH!!!!! She teaches me grammar, so that's great! I like the stories she shares with us, even if they do frustrate the whole class. She wants the best for all of us.

Things Hudson could improve for future classes: Make different options for the drawing assignments. I really don't like drawing and it is a challenge for me. It really takes me hours to do a mediocre job. I hate it.

Any final comments for Hudson: I love your class! I'm going to try to take both composition and novels and creative writing next year. I love writing! As long as I have enough time to do it. I love reading stories and I'm glad that the ones you share with us are interesting! Thank you for being a great English teacher!!!!!! 😀

Week 31: Advice from Someone Who Went Through It

1. DO ALL OF YOUR ASSIGNMENTS TO YOUR BEST ABILITY AND ON TIME. Please do all of your assignments when you get them. Most are easy. You really need the points, especially if you aren't the best test taker. Do them to your best ability. Don't half ass complete your assignments and projects. That shows you don't care. Turn them in on time. You won't get penalized for it being late. your #1 priority should be your health and then school work.
2. KEEP TO YOUR OWN BUSINESS. It is best for everyone to stay out of drama. You don't need to share information that is not yours to share. Even if it is your friends' drama, it isn't yours. there is no need to get yourself into it. 
3. STAY OUT OF TROUBLE. Drama. breaking the rules/laws. looking for a fight. that is what life is for losers that get no where in life. Be a good citizen and give to those that give to you. 
4. BE KIND. No one likes stuck up people that only care about themselves. Be kind to those around you. You will be rewarded in one way or another.
5. DREAM BIG. It sounds cliche, but the sky is the limit! Pursue what you want to pursue. Please don't feel like there are limits, because there are none! Work hard to make your dreams come true, because you may regret it if you don't. 
6. DON'T TRY TO PLEASE EVERYONE. It is impossible, so don't even try to. Just be yourself and be respectful. Everyone has different opinions and ways of life. They have different interests and attitudes. There are people that are different than you, and it is not your job to please them. 

I have much more to say, but this is just a blog. This is getting too long.

Week 30: A New Beginning- Almost

Apparently, I have amnesia. I had to choose 5 people to council me to remember every aspect of my life, but I didn't add people that hate me. (I wonder why.)

My favorite person, My dad
He knows me like no other person. He is my number one favorite person! We share almost everything with each other and I love him sooooo much. It would suck to forget all that we have done together. That is why I chose him.

My little sister, Elly
She sees the side of me that a lot of people don't see. I can be REALLY weird and act like a kid. I LOVE IT! We have grown really close.

My big sister, Sarah
Even though we didn't get along a lot when we were younger, we are pretty cool with each other now. She has spent the most time with me as a child and I would want to know how I was when I grew up. She remembers the most funniest things about me too so in a way, it is great to have that to look back on.

One of my best friends, Shania  
Shania and I have told each other about a lot of our struggles. I wanted her to be a part of my council because she can remind me of them. What makes us the people we is what we go through in life. I can also be weird around Shania, and it's pretty fun lemme tell ya! Shania is the kind of friend that will be your friend for a life time and I hope that she would have fun with rebuilding my memory (; and what our friendship would be in the future.

My wonderful step-grandma, Julie
My grandma thinks a lot of me. She knows how much I try. She knows I struggle, and she reminds me that there is hope. She comforts me and makes me feel loved. I thought I wouldn't know what the love of a grandmother felt like until I married, but now I do know. Her farm is an escape from things I don't want to think about. I love it there. She is here for me and I am here for her. I think that is why I chose her to be on my counsel. Everyone needs a trust worthy and loving grandparent in their lives!!!!!

Week 29: The Worst Trip EVER.

Hudson thought it was a great idea to get a submarine, and the junior class took an undersea trip in it. I didn't think it was such a great idea, but I went along with it because people were really pumped about it. Hudson, Devlin, and Rowold went along with us. We all wanted to go to Paris. So we took a train to Delaware and Hudson's submarine waited for us at Rehoboth Beach (bordering the North Atlantic Ocean). It took us 5 days to get to France. When we arrived, we rode a train to Paris. We stayed in Paris for 4 days. We saw the Eiffel Tower (yes, we did get to the top), Notre Dame de Paris, The Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Musee d'Orsay. The sight seeing was great and I had a blast. But the worst part of the whole trip was when the submarine broke down and we had to ride a fishing boat back. I got sea sick during the first few hours we were riding on the boat. I remained sea sick the whole time. I couldn't keep food down. I had a bad migraine. I couldn't shower. No one could shower. It sucked trying to use the bath room. No one had phone service out in the middle of the ocean. All we could do was enjoy each other's misery. There were a select few people that weren't sea sick the whole time, and they bragged about it. It pissed me off soooo much! I just wanted to feed them to the sharks. We got to Delaware after 10 days of being on the nasty fishing boat. It felt sooo amazing to finally be on land! I was so ready to go home and sleep! When we made it to Washburn, I didn't even want to wait for my dad to pick me up. I stumbled home and went straight to bed. I slept tried sleeping for over 20 hours, but my dad woke me up because he thought I had slipped into a coma or something. My dad surprised me with some delicious chicken, macaroni, and fruit! I was so happy it wasn't fish.

Week 28: To My Best Friend

Jesus,

Thank you for dying for our sins. You have saved me and many others. You understand me like no other person does. I love you.

Dad,

We have gone through thick and thin together. You have been the best dad I could ever ask for. You understand how I feel 99.99% of the time. I love you soooo much and I don't want to grow up because I will miss you and spend lots of money on gas to come see you all the time. I will miss you every second of every day. Thank you for being all I have needed.

Shania, 

We have been best friends since 7th grade. We have held each other up and helped each other out. I'm here for you when you need me and you're here for me when I need you. You allow me to be weird and vent my feelings. I feel like I can be myself around you. I love you the most for that. Thanks for dealing with me for all of these years. (: 

Taylor,

We have also been best friends since 7th grade. We have been through some hurtful things together (not with each other) and we also help each other out. I love that we both are in love with Kellin Quinn! <3 Sometimes I hide my true feelings from you because I don't wanna ruin your good days. But its okay. I do it cause I love you. ^_^ 

Week 27: If I'm James Dean, You're Audrey Hepburn

East Gaston High School is the perfect place to whitness all of the stereotypes of highschool and the cliques that roam the halls. There are

• The popular kids
• The cool kids
• The jocks
• The fringes
• The nerds and geeks
• The emos
• The loners
• The strays/outsiders
• The skaters
• The rebels
• The preps
• The thespians (obsessed with musicals and singing everything)
• The mean girls
• The rockers
• any others that you could possibly think of

Anyways, I have very few friends. Kate, Ashlyn, and Brooke. They are the best. I know it sounds cliche, but I guess you could say we do our own thing. Just like all of the other cliques. But unlike the other cliques, we are the really nice ones. The peacemakers. We try to help with anything we can. We all fight for the attention of others, to be in the spot light. But I never cared for the spotlight until I was shoved into it... literally. Here is how I got there.

One day, I was following my normal morning/afternoon routine: Go to 1st-4th hours and then to lunch  to see my friends. I have to wait until lunch to see them because we all have different interests, but we are close friends because we carry each others weight and have fun. I love them soooo much. We love each other. well anyways... there was a new girl. sitting in my spot. Being the jealous, pathetic, insecure girl I am, I stormed out of the cafeteria pissed off and not caring what is in my way. I flew through swinging doors (who the hell puts swinging doors in the doorway of a cafeteria?!) and I collide with a brick wall.. at least that is what it seemed like. buuuuuut nope. It was a hunk of gorgeousness. I tried to look pissed off when I pulled my food-covered self up off of the floor and stood there waiting for him to say something. But when I looked up, he was searching for my pissed off gaze. We stood there staring at each other. It was really awkward and I got frustrated so I broke the silence. "Well I kinda thought I needed to spice up my wardrobe a little too but this is a little extreme, don't you think?"' And in that moment, I was glad that I am that kind of person that comes up with the right things to say in the moment because we both die laughing. and we kept laughing even when a teacher comes to witness the mess that was being gawked at by a crowd of students I didn't even notice before. I was just so lost in him. And his gaze never left me....... We spent the next hour cleaning up the doorway and ourselves. we both received after-school detentions.

Fast forwarding to the detention...... Everything was awkward and silent until Mrs. Bagel left to flirt with our young PE teacher. She is such a cougar it is just so sickening! anyways, he kept looking out of the corner of his eye to look at me. It was a pain to be in that room knowing we had something between us... so I swallowed my insecurities and fears and stared straight at him. He blushed and then I did. He stared back at me and we sat there smiling and staring and staring and smiling. After about 2 minutes of this, he shifted his body to turn towards me and his angelic voice slices through the air and hits me like he did the day before at lunch. "I'm sorry for hitting you with the door and causing such a mess on you and dragging you into this and stuff... I feel like a nuisance to everyone for what happened..." I swear I died, was re-born as a different girl, and now was starting my life. This was a girl that attracted genuine boys that liked her for her weird sense of humor and food-covered self! A girl that was talking to a guy that seemed to be falling in love but still is respectful and not flirting hardcore! We proceeded to talk about what happened and what we were thinking after it happened and during clean up. What people asked us and things like that. We chatted our way to the end of detention and said goodbye.

Long story short, the new girl replaced me. So I decided to eat lunch with food boy and made friends with his friends. he plays guitar and is in a band. He loves nature, music, adventure, active things, food, and other things i like as well. To everyone, we are the picture of a perfect couple. I call him James Dean because people first love him for his looks, then fun personality, then a great appreciation for his talent. Then after I started calling him that, he started calling me Audrey Hepburn because I tend to be too kind to people, i am too humble, and everyone is attracted to not only my looks but love my kindness. We lived our happy lives until after we graduated high school. I went to college and his band got sooo popular that they had tours every month. We keep in touch and catch up with each other in between tours. He wrote this song for me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71SvPulAyZI
If I'm James Dean, You're Audrey Hepburn 

Stay for tonight
If you want to
I can show you
What my dreams are made of,
As I'm dreaming of your face
I've been away for a long time
Such a long time
And I miss you there
I can't imagine being anywhere else
I can't imagine being anywhere else but here

[Verse 1:]
How the hell did you ever pick me?
Honestly, I could sing you a song
But I don't think words can express your beauty
It's singing to me
How the hell did we end up like this?
You bring out the beast in me
I fell in love from the moment we kissed
Since then we've been history

[Chorus:]
They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
Please stay as long as you need
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
Please stay forever with me

[Verse 2:]
It goes to show, I hope that you know that you are
What my dreams are made of
Can't fall asleep, can't fall asleep
I lay in my bed awake, in my bed awake at night
As I dream of you
I'll fall in love, you'll fall in love
It could mean everything, everything to me
I can't imagine being anywhere else

[Chorus:]
They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
Please stay as long as you need
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
Please stay forever with me

[Bridge (2x):]
The way that we are
Is the reason I stay
As long as you're here with me
I know I'll be OK

[Chorus:]
They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
Please stay as long as you need
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
Please stay forever with me

(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one baby)
They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one girl)
Please stay as long as you need

(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one baby)
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one girl)
Please stay forever with me

Week 26: I Hold Back the Mean Words

I think of things, funny things, to say all of the time but I hold it back. I try to avoid being the bad guy that did any wrong in a situation. It bothers me sooo much when people think they need to put their input into everything. Or they are immature and share their immature thoughts all of the time. People's pathetic drama makes me want to smash my head against a wall. They can't control their mouths... This is making my chest hurt just thinking about all of this. I really need to work on that. I can't stress over all of these things that aren't important.

But on the other hand, I wish I could have told people more positive things. I wish I wasn't so caught up on my own thoughts and problems to see the beauty and joy in moments in the past. I wish I said "I love you" more and took more chances to appreciate people. I wish I wasn't scared to do what I wanted. I wish i said all that I wanted because the words I could have said would have made a big difference in EVERYTHING. Words I can no longer share...............

Week 25: My Life's Theme Song Would Be A Long One

a theme song for my life? wow. that would be really hard to think of. my song would talk about going through rough times but it all gets better to remind myself to look on the positive side. I would probably have Kellen Quinn sing it cause I LOVE HIS VOICE! OOO or Williamette Stone cause his voice is pretty dreamy too! OOOOOO or Justin Timberlake!!!!!!!!! I can't decide!!!!! anyways, it would always make me happy to sing it and it would encourage me to stay strong and keep moving forward! I'm always looking for inspiring things cause im the kind of person that needs constant reminders that everything is going to be okay. i need constant reminder that im worth something. that someone cares. someone loves me. I haven't found the perfect song yet.... i might write it myself!

Week 24: Inside Jokes Are The BEST!!!

I HAVE SOOOO MANY INSIDE JOKES WITH PEOPLE ITS RIDICULOUS!!! but i can't think of a lot on the top of my head which sucks. they just pop in when ever and make me laugh so hard i cry and might pee myself. most of the inside jokes are of stupid stuff that me and the person said or did. like i sleep talk and walk A LOT. its crazy! so people make fun of me for it and have a good laugh. I do stupid stuff that people recall all of the time. i mess up sentences and slur my words and that is also glued in their head for a while. I love making fun memories with people!

Week 23: Australia is My Dream Vacation

Australia is a beautiful place to visit! And the exotic animals are really interesting! I dream of going to Australia and touring their national parks and doing many things! I love wondering in nature and swimming and there are many beautiful and exotic places in Australia to do those things! Here are only some of the places I want to visit in Australia!

Great Barrier Reef: 
beautiful blue! beautiful sea life! but unfortunately, i will only see dead reef cause almost all of the reef is dead.



Trekking in forests and many other places (and of course staying for a few weeks):
I LOOOOVE HIKING AND EXPLORING THE WOODS!! soooo fun!


Royal Botanic Garden:
If i was rich, I would have gardens like these!

Sunshine Coast:
This giant picture of sunshine coast makes me want to dive right into its blue water! I love swimming!


MORE AWESOME PLACES TO SEE IN AUSTRAILIA, BUT THERE ARE STILL MANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Darling Harbour
Jenolan Caves
Noosa National Parks
Lamington National Park
Nitmiluk National Park
Whitsunday Islands
Sea World Gold coast
Dreamworld
Lake Eyre

Week 22: Rapunzel and Flynn Are Truly The Best Disney Couple EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know I am supposed to mess up the happily ever after of a Disney couple to make this blog interesting, but I just can't. That is too evil.
My favorite Disney couple is Rapunzel and Flynn/Eugene. I'm just going to call him Flynn. Here are the reasons why I love them so much!

• They meet when Flynn breaks into her tower and Rapunzel knocks him out with a frying pan. How crazy is that?! and their love for each other grew as they got to know each other and go through an exciting adventure! It totally goes against the whole "love at first sight" thing Disney normally likes to use.
• They both love using the frying pan as a weapon!
• They helped each other out of their bad situations.
•  Flynn is able to have a sense of humor with Rapunzel and she brings out the good side in him. The good and sweet side. She is the only person he can be himself around.
• Even though he jokes with Rapunzel a lot and is best friends with sarcasm, he makes cute little gestures of affection like gazing into her eyes or pushing back her hair. 
• They both protect each other and are willing to make BIG sacrifices in order to save one another.
• They can express their feelings in song, and this ability isn't over-used! 
• He accepts all of her little quirks and loves her weirdness and enthusiasm.
• Their relationship changes the way the kingdom's subjects see him. he saved the lost princess! and THEY ARE IN LOVE!!!!!
• They also can be spotted in Frozen so they must be going strong!

They truly live happily ever after. They have together made the kingdom a tourist attraction by providing a little of everything to do there. They have sports teams, festivals, new schools, orphanages, a resort, and much more! They are investing in buying an island as well as about 500 acres of forest to expand their land. They have had twin girls and a boy so far. The twin girls are named Grace and Ella. The prince is named after his father Eugene. They live an exciting and love filled life and rule the kingdom better than anyone else ever has. Everyone is much happier now and they are all hoping it stays that way.

Week 21: Tom Welling!!!!!

ALL OF YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT I LOVE SMALLVILLE!!!!! (SUPERMAN TV SHOW)
Tom Welling is Clark Kent in this show.

i love his square jaw and his eyes and nose and OOOOOOOOOOO HIS LIPS!!!!!!!!!!! They are perfect. HE IS PERFECT!!!!!! <3 And his character in Smallville would make him the best husband EVER!!!!!!!!!!

by the way, I'm in love with him as Clark Kent. NOT as a person.
I'd love to meet him and get to know more about him than just his tabloid cover. He seems like a pretty cool dude. Watching him in Smallville while I was down on "young love" really helped me realize what is needed and necessary for me. Also, it made me realize what I truly want. So i am very grateful for Smallville. Listening and seeing him on my tv comforts me. he is really great!

on the contrary, his image in Smallville is unrealistic. at least in the world that i live in. so sadly, i probably won't meet a decent guy like Clark Kent to call my own.

Week 20: Second Shot At Junior High and High School!

If i woke up on the morning of the first day of 7th grade and what i thought i actually did was a dream, it wouldn't be that hard to believe. my dreams are very vivid and i remember lots of details. First off, I'd be late to school cause my alarm clock didn't go off that morning. Second, I wouldn't take peoples dirty looks and whispers personally when I walked into the library to get my schedule. It really hurt my feelings by the way to those of you who remember.... ANNNYYYWWWAYYYSSSS........ Third, I would make a lot of different choices. Like not having stupid crushes or trying to be friends with people that were a waste of my time. Or taking opportunities I had before but didn't take.... I would get better grades and not let other people keep me from doing sports (I didn't and still don't get along with the team mates that play(ed) the sports i want(ed) to play and my dad wouldn't want me to be away from home when he wasn't home)............... there are sooo many other things i could list but i have learned to limit how much of my opinion I share sooo....... I'm going to conclude that I wish, if this all really was a dream, I wish I had it before I started 6th grade.

Week 19: I don't Even Know What People Know About Me SOOOO......

I don't Even Know What People Know About Me........BUUUTTTT......

• I was a very bad kid in 6th grade. That was my rebel time. then i moved here to Washburn. 
• I have a pink electric guitar that i have given up on
• I have a chinchilla! she looks almost exactly like this! ⤑              learn about them at http://www.livescience.com/28131-chinchillas.html
• I want to be a pediatrics nurse and maybe even a pediatric doctor because i love children and i am fascinated by the human body!
• I LOVE TAKING QUIZZES!!!!!
• I had 3 years of junior high because East Peoria starts junior high in 6th grade
• I have a low self-esteem
• I am somehow not capable of keeping a best friend that can call me her sister.....
• I like a little bit of every genre on movies and music
• I could care less about fashion
• The three things i want more than anything is to start a family, get closer to God, and spread good throughout the world. (I have high hopes and expectations)
• I have a car and her name is Piney because she is an ugly pine green color.
• I LOVE to sing even though it sounds terrible!
• I am very jumpy.
• I get excited over little things.
• Like I listed previously, I ALWAYS GET MY HOPES UP HIGH AND I HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS, cause why not?
• If I "take a nap" its bedtime cause I am not waking up.
• I most of the time am depressed but i hide it. until i blow up or make a Facebook post about it like i did recently. shouldn't have done that. 
• If you haven't noticed already, I'm hard on myself. 
• I have very vivid dreams and I am able to remember lots of details from them if i care to recite details in my head after I wake up.
• I ABSOLUTELY NEED SOMEONE TO SLEEP WITH EVERY NIGHT. I love the comfort and warmth of cuddling. its great.
• I get very attached to lots of things and people very fast.
• It is my biggest pet peeve when people disrespect nature, people, animals, or basically anything. and when people lie/fake themselves.
• I have had 4 family overdoses. So thats another pet peeve of mine is when people enjoy drugs and think its just for fun or take it as a joke. you're STUPID.
• Another pet peeve of mine is when people are lazy.
• i think if is the cutest thing when a woman is happy and pregnant.
• moderate PDA makes my heart melt <3
• lots of people anger me but i don't always show it. It just causes sharp pains in my chest. and my head hurts. 

COLLEGE AND LOVE FLOODS MY MIND......................

Week 18: My Siblings are All Different

Eden Gene Widner: Eden is my 1 1/2 year (or 18 month) old half (by my dad) baby brother. He is the light of my day! i love him sooooo much! He is a little brat sometimes but the cute and sweet things he does makes up for all of the annoying things. He acts like a dog and meows randomly. He thinks everything is a ball and takes everything and says "mine". He makes a smooch sounds when he gives kisses and he gives hugs at random moments. If you tickle him when he is tired he gets REALLY giggly and it is the best thing ever. <3 He  stabs his yogurt with his baby spoon and turns it upside down to put it in his mouth. His new facial expression is the mean look (his babysitter's 15 year old son makes that face a lot so it rubbed off on him) and he acts like he his mad. If you point to something and say "MMM!" he will grab it and say "MMM!". He is currently learning the word "no". sometimes, his no responses to questions actually make sense and are funny but he really doesn't know what he is talking about. It is the cutest when he says "No no noooo"... He is growing up too fast and it is sad, but it is exciting at the same time! I love him sooooo much!
Ellyna Ann Gravat: Elly is my step sister. She is 10 and in 5th grade. She can be SUPER annoying and weird, but i love being weird together. I bet if people saw how we acted together at home, people would treat me like im nuts. We are close and fight a lot, and i forget to tell her i love her. Its hard to will certain issues at home that i shouldn't share. I should tell her today. Actually, I will tell her today. It annoys me when she doesn't answer her phone and she is always ungrateful about everything and its a huge problem. But we all have our flaws, and she is working hers out. I hope to help teach her useful things in life.
Sarah Grace Streeper: Sarah is my half sister (by my mom) and she is 22 and will be 23 on March 3rd. Now that Sarah has moved out of the house, we get along A LOT BETTER. I used to be the annoying little sister and she was the bossy and bully big sister. She still hasn't figured out what she wants her career to be, which is completely fine. but she often crosses the line when she is in debt because of her indecisiveness. She has had a baby and his name is Camden. He is 3. He is soooo cute, despite his teeny tantrums and attitude he has at times. He does soooo many funny things! he has big ears for a 3 year old and for that, i used to call him my little monkey when he was an infant. Seeing Sarah, Camden, and Sarah's boyfriend Tyler together as a family makes me even more excited to have a amity of my own!
Kenneth Woodruff Widner: Kenny is my half brother (by my dad) and he is 27 or 28. I feel terrible right now cause I can't remember! anyways, my brother is awesome! He is so musically and spiritually involved that it makes me envious! he also can't figure out what he wants to do with himself. He better figure it out soon! he has also struggled with love. poor guy! he is a great guy, just can't find the right girl. He better hurry with that too because he will be bald in the next 5 years! (Widners bald at a young age, and yes i will too. Pity me.) I hardly ever see my brother so when we do see each other, i enjoy his presence even more! I wish he wasn't so busy all of the time! I have never lived with my brother so i think thats why we are so cool with each other. and we are years apart.

➤I love all of my siblings very much despite their flaws. I love them all in different ways though. The same with my parents and my friends. I hope that live doesn't separate us and lets us get closer to each other.

Week 17: The Future is Unknown

there are soooo many different ideas of what the future will be like. but for me, i hope that in the future there will be cures for all diseases and we treat Earth way better. but most importantly, i hope to see the work of God in motion on a big scale. it is told in the bible that God will end life on Earth when we least expect it but he also gave signs of when the end will come. All of the signs are stronger that ever and will only get stronger. we may not see it for another about 200 years or even longer but it is close. so when i think of a thousand years from now, i think of Earth being the way God planned it to be. And I'm sorry if you aren't religious and all of this bothers you but this is what i believe the future will look like.
