one moment in time

Ceara Harris
One moment in time

As I am sitting on this big red cart I stop and think is this really what I want or is this just an easy way out. Feeling like a piece of chocolate surrounded by sand I feel quite uncomfortable. All these new faces looking around at me like a fish out of water. I sit by a huge old man that smells like sour but and toes, I didn’t move because there was no were else to sit.
Screaming babies, tiered moaning people, nasty scents, and the whole situation just makes me want to roll over and die. Wow does any one else feel this horable? Buzz buzz buzz goes my phone feels like a bee stinging me. No no its mom again, one missed call.
Rain drops start to hit my checks but wind shields just wipe them away. I feel gum on the bottom of the little red seats I jus take my hands away. I can hear the director saying 25 and commercial next stop. Every time I hear her talk it just gets louder and louder.
People getting on and off on and off left right open close open close. It just made me go even crazier. By the time we closer to the place i'm trying to go every body has mostly gotten off. The only people that were left were people going back across the line to get home from a long day of work. So I hear my stop san ysidro next stop.

I stop and think to my self again am I really doing this what are people going to think of me after this . Will I be loved or out casted who know. Now’s my time to get off I’m shaking crying and scared,
I find a near by bench and just take a seat. Buzz buzz, buzz my phone goes again. Dozens of missed calls from my mom, uncle, brother, and sister, I decide to answer my moms call for the first time. Hello’’ ceara were are you please let me come and get you I want you to come home.
No thanks I don’t want to get in trouble id rather just stay away and avoid the trouble. Let’s just rationalize please act your age.

baby

The nice sounds of cooing , warms my heart like a cake in the oven. Various memories of caring for kids warms my heart. This sounds like little sounds crying out for attention, love care maybe a diaper change, or just simply a hug.

These sounds make me think of a puppy trying to get its moms attention so it can simply drink milk.I also think of times when i just want something from my mom and i make cute noises.

Then i make her give in to my ridiculous demands.Gurgles, giggles, drool, you have to love it all
. Why because it coming from a beautiful little baby which really is a beautiful music box. http://margaretnoble.net/blog/24-hours-old/

Locker problem

Locker problem
Ceara harris

How many lockers are open? Me and my classmates figured out that there are 31 lockers open. This was very hard to figure out because there are so many ways to get answers to this problem. But once you get at least one equation it is very easy to follow the pattern. This also had to do with figuring out the perfect squares or you wouldn’t be able to figure out the lockers that were open. Which lockers are open? This was the really hard part to figure out in the problem. We all worked together and figured it out. I used square roots to figure out which lockers were open. Which lockers are perfect squares? We came to a conclusion that the perfect squares are (1*1), (2*2),(3*3). So you use perfect squares to figure it out. They have an odd amount of factors they will change there state to opposite (o, c, c ) These lockers were open because the students came through and opened and closed them, so some lockers were never touched again.

line across= closed

no line =open
