" Panic Attack"
My other therapist called me and asked me, "Simone, Do you have an S.T.D ?". I was silent and started to cry. I answered Why? He told me that he just wanted to know because my files said that I had an S.T.D. I said yes.She came to my house and told me that I had to go into a crazy home. She said that it was the only thing that would help me get over my thoughts. I didn't argue because I didn't want to get into deep Sh**. I went into the crazy home and a bunch of mentally and physically challenged people were staring at me. I was scared out of my mind. They put me in a cushoned room by myself and put me in a stray jacket. I Stood in a corner and started to go crazy. All I saw was bloody words and pictures popping at me of my baby.

Sample Chapter 2
" Mommy Why? "
Today I couldn't take the way this baby, My baby? was getting to my head. I went to a therapist and they told me to write everything the baby was saying and give it to him tommorow.
He handed me a note pad and a pencil to use and told me good day. That night when I got home, Karen's house, I took a shower and as soon as I got out I noticed that I was bleeding. "Why is this? Why am I bleeding?" I cried out. I went into the room Karen let me sleep in and on the wall was words written in red letters, Mommy Why?. I smelt the words and whiped some on my fingers, and yes, it was blood on the wall. I ran to get Karen and as soon as we returned to the room the letters were gone.
I took the note pad went into a corner and started writing. I wrote on the aper everything the baby was saying to me. When I went to the therapist the next day I gave him my paper and he was really suprised. I was the only patient of his that has/had this specific problem. I did not only write about what the baby was saying to me, I wrote about how I tried to kill myself and what happend that same night. He told me that he could not help me with this problem. He told me that he was going to send me to rehab and I begged him not to send me there. He told me nothing would happend and that they would put me in a nice quiet dorm/room and I have nothing to worry about. I believed him and went along with it. That night he took me there and something happend. He took me to his house. He asked me to do the same thing and I told him that I wouldnt because of what happend to andrew and he begged me. I did it. It was way better. My baby got to me again and said to me " What about Daddy mommy and I felt like Ohh Sh**. I loved my therapist. I made out with him for a while and he told me I was too young. I told him no and that I loved him too much and that age is just another number. He did'nt send me to rehab and instead of that he helped me by treating me to good help :) .Until he found me one night trying to commit suicide and he helped me and I told him that she's back. He put her in rehab the next night and that night someone sneaked into her dorm and almost raped her. She was so scared. She called he "lover" /therapist and he didn't believe her. The people in the rehab center put her in a stray jacket and in a cushoned room. Simone was so scared. That night Simone had a panic attack and they had to put numb needle in her nd cuff her up and put her to sleep. Back at home the therapist was looking at Simone's file and find out that she had an STD..........................

Experience is a Hard Teacher
I got pregnant when I was 17 years old, I was so happy due to the fact that it was from my first love in high school. I had dreams of us being together forever, through thick or thin. But I was wrong! We broke up after our third child and after 10 years of being together. I struggled alot and had gotten evicted many times due to the fact that I didn't have a high school diploma. I was depressed all of the time, and I tried to commit suicide, because no one likes to see their child hungry, and I was just a kid myself or at least what was left of one. I was fortunate because my father caught me and called 911. After they pumped my stomach I was sent to the crazy house (NO REALLY). There I was counceled and they kept asking me why I was trying to do something so permanent for a situation so temporary. I told them over and over my reason,but they kept saying that it would get better. I am 30 years old, I have 5 kids and it is still hard for me. But I count on no one, I struggled through all of my 20's and I was in and out of abusive relationships starting with the one with my kids father. He is in prison and my kids are just fine. I am in college now typing this story. Because, I want other people now what I experienced in hopes that they will not make the same mistakes that I did. Never let anyone ruin your life. I mean if you are not ready to become a mother, never let anyone talk you into it. Because it is not fun being poor and uneducated. Its not fun watching your kids go to bed without eating or not having enough to eat, and its not fun when your kids want something and you are not able to get it. I am the only one that stuck around and struggled with my kids. I am the one they come to when they are happy and when they are not. I am a good mom but it was hard!

single and aloneI am 19 and have just found out that I am pregnant. I am alone now because my boyfriend of 3 months has got back together with his ex who he also has a kid with but he doesnt want to know and has basically ignored me even though I have told him that I am pregnant and i think he will want me to have an abortion if he even acknowledges me and my baby. I am scared to tell my family because I am the responsible one and should not be doing this.

Surpise at 16I fell pregnant in November of 2008. I wasn't late when i found out but my mother said she thought i was pregnant and to take a test. Mothers intuition she blamed it on. I took 4 tests and in astonishment i discovered i was indeed pregnant. I was 16 years old. (Just) I told my boyfriend who was quite calm about it and said 'it doesn't surprise me now lets tell your mum/" i told mum and she said ' lets take you to the dr then and get a blood test to make sure' 2 days later it was confirmed and i was approx 3 weeks pregnant giving me a due date of August 25 2009. By this point i was excited but i still had no education so i enrolled in TAFE to get a school certificate. My pregnancy progressed smoothly and by 7 months i looked as though i was carrying twins. I was huge. We tried to find out the sex of the baby but it had its legs crossed in the ultrasound so we were told we had to wait. My due date came and went and on August 29th 2009 i wasn't feeling myself. I kept getting cramps but they were very irregular coming every 2 hours. I dismissed them as labour pains until later that night when my boyfriend and brother went fishing. I stayed with mum and later had to call my boyfriend to get him to come home as i was quite scared and uncomfortable. I laboured all night and the pains only got intense around 5am (August 30th) I spent the whole night watching TV and walking around and timing contractions. At 5.30am we left to go to the hospital. The Dr told me i wasn't in labour and to go home and take panadol. I went home quite angry to be honest and tried choking down panadol until i said to mum, I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!' and after saying that my water broke all over the lounge room floor. My boyfriend whisked me up and put me in the car and mum rushed me back to hospital where they confirmed i was 6cm dialated and was progressing quite quickly. I was told to expect a baby within the next 24hrs. The next 5 hrs were a complete blur to me, the pain was intense but not unbearable. I pushed and pushed for almost an hour and after having an episiotomy (which didnt hurt) my little GIRL was born. She weighed 7.6lbs and 49cm long. She had blonde hair, blue eyes and a very loud scream! I looked up and both my mum and boyfriend were crying. 4 hours after giving birth i went home because the midwives were cruel to me i assume because of my age. Xanthie is 7 months old now and is a happy healthy little girl. She rolls over, says dada and hello, goes to daycare 3 days a week and is the most precious gift ive ever been given. I am still studying for my certificate and i should have it completed by june.

I went home quite angry to be honest and tried choking down panadol until i said to mum, I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!' and after saying that my water broke all over the lounge room floor. My boyfriend whisked me up and put me in the car and mum rushed me back to hospital where they confirmed i was 6cm dialated and was progressing quite quickly. I was told to expect a baby within the next 24hrs. The next 5 hrs were a complete blur to me, the pain was intense but not unbearable. I pushed and pushed for almost an hour and after having an episiotomy (which didnt hurt) my little GIRL was born. She weighed 7.6lbs and 49cm long. She had blonde hair, blue eyes and a very loud scream! I looked up and both my mum and boyfriend were crying. 4 hours after giving birth i went home because the midwives were cruel to me i assume because of my age. Xanthie is 7 months old now and is a happy healthy little girl. She rolls over, says dada and hello, goes to daycare 3 days a week and is the most precious gift ive ever been given. I am still studying for my certificate and i should have it completed by june.

Sample Chapter
" I was Forced"
I'm Simone. I am 16 and a I have a horrible reputation. I smoke , I drink and I am a very disobedient child. At school really bad rumors have been spreading about me. No one really cared about me so they didnt really think about everything I did.
The only one that cared was Karen and she couldnt change me if she tried her hardest.Karen is one of my friends that basically follows the right path and does th right things. She acts like my parent. I love her but she's always bugging out on everything I do.
On april 5th 2005, me and Andrew, My boyfriend we were drinking, smoking and talking about us. He basically went out with me because the bad rumor that went around the school. Andrew kept asking me to do something I kept refusing. Andrew kept telling me until he had enough. He pulled me to the room and pushed me on the bed. He said we were going to do this in a serious voice so I just went along because I was scared. We did it and although it wasnt that bad I regreted every second of it. When I got home my parents kept bugging me about how I was gonna end up on the corners as a prostitute and selling drugs and I didnt listen to anyword that they said. That night my dad notice my conversation. He came in the room and asked me who i was talking to and ofcoursed I lied and said that I was talking to Karen and I was really talking to Keisha .My dad walked in on me with a belt in his hands. He said to me"so you went to a party yesterday huh? ohh and did you tell me or your mom?" I said "No" He told me to take off my shirt and turn to my back side.He hit me 6 times with the belt and when I got in the shower my skin was burning and I had many nasty welts on my back.I refused to show my back to anyone because if they knew some how it would get to my parents and once it got to my dad he would beat me again. The week after i had brought a pregnancy test. I used the pregnancy test and aftere waiting a while the test read" Positive". My eyes widened and I was scared to death. That night I had left a note on the door of my house the note said " I'm leaving , you guys dont do nothing for me, you guys dont care about me. I have no one that cares about me in this house. Bye.dont come looking for me because you wont find me."That night I went to Karen's house.

Orangutans-Writers Response(non-fiction lesson 1)
(3) I think the MAIN reason Orangutans are threatened with extinction is because they are Valuable and rare in many places.Most of the time public zoos take in animals that are rare and extinct.I say this because zoos usually contain animals you wouldn't be able to find in the wild life,jungles or forests.Orangutans now in the day are very rare and are definently extinct.Orangutans have many reasons for being threatened with extinction.
(4)I think the purpose of Galdikas in the picture with the 2 baby Orangutans served many points in the article.1 point is to show how much he cares about Orangutans.Another point is to show that he is brave enough to go into a forest and keep Orangutans free from public places such as Zoos.
(5) Every now and then my cat,my very,very,very annoying cat purrs for water.It really annoys me but it catches my sister's attention.Sometimes I think she is just heating because she needs a boy-friend.I hate to hear her purr because it sounds like long fingernails scratching down a black board.screeeecchhh!!!! I hate it!!This illustrates to me that my cat really likes to annoy me and hates my guts.Well guess what kitty I hate you to so blahh!!!

Haiti Article found on Internet
When news of the deadly earthquake in Haiti struck, administrators at Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center immediately knew the disaster would hit close to home. The hospital lies in central Brooklyn—the city's Haitian stronghold—and many of its staff and patients hail from the Caribbean nation.
A Haitian pastor was brought in to comfort those who lost loved ones, leading a Thursday prayer service that drew more than 100 people. The hospital launched a collection drive for the American Red Cross and two of its doctors who had been planning a medical mission to Fort Liberte near Haiti's borer with the Dominican Republic shifted gears and prepared to leave for Port-au-Prince, where they hope to set up a clinic to treat fractures, lacerations and minor traumas.“I have so many patients from Haiti,” said Dr. William Lois, the hospital's chief of surgery. “I want to help.”
As it became apparent that as many as 50,000 people could be dead, that same desire echoed across the city, from radio stations and community newspapers in Brooklyn assisting desperate New Yorkers looking for family members in Haiti to companies big and small pledging millions of dollars in donations.
Money flooded into New York City-based aid groups at record clips. And leaders of the city's Haitian community—which numbers more than 122,000, including nearly 74,000 in Brooklyn—poured themselves into relief-organizing efforts via an extensive network of professional and community-based organizations. Small groups took off for Haiti to assess the damage and report back on the best ways to help.
“Everybody is geared up for a sprint, but this is not going to be a sprint,” said Dr. Stephen Goldfinger, chair of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at SUNY Downstate Medical Center, which lies in the heart of Brooklyn's Haitian community. “This is going to be a marathon.”
The Association of Haitian Physicians New York chapter had 60 volunteer doctors and 40 nurses at the starting block, but was waiting for word from an advance delegation before deploying them, according to Dr. Georges Casimir, a psychiatrist and past president of the group.
“People like me who are anxiously awaiting news and are not sure what to expect are getting involved in whatever projects we can,” said Dr. Casimir, who as of Thursday had not heard from five siblings in Haiti. “That's the only way I'm dealing with it.”
My Response:"Oh wow!! This is crazy Haiti didn't deserve this.

Home-Work #76
One non-fiction book I have read before was the book "Polyanna". This book is about a girl who goes to lie with her aunt because her dad has passed. She tries to help her aunt overcome her depression. She even start up a game called the glad game, a game that requires you to name things you are glad for. I read this book beacause looking at the back of the book and seeing what was written to talk about and I seemed to be interested into that stuff. As a personal indivisual I prefer fiction books because they show the readers what creavitivity the author has and how much imagination they have. I think that non-fiction books either tell a story about someone's life or your life. I would like to read non-fiction books about my life , my family's life and basically how spectacualar we approach to be.
I would rather not live with Kenny's parents because......(The Watsons go to Birmingham-1963)
As an indivisual,I would rather not live with Kenny's parents. I would not like to live with his parents for many reasons. One of the reasons isn't because they are bad parents,I actually think they're pretty good parents,they care for their kids,they love eachother and they care about eachother. One way I can support that is because in the book she keeps byron from playing with matches not only because of his danger,also because of the risks of him putting his family and his family's house in danger.
One of the things that are stopping me from wanting to live with Kenny's parents is all the work they would possibly/probably put on top of me.I say this only because on page seven on the book it says that Kenny's dad made them scrape snow and ice of the Brown Bomber's windows and doors. As soon as i heard that I said to myself ,uhmmmmm........ I'll guess I'll be leaving now. I was not going to go throught that trouble.
(In this paragraph^it foreshadows on why I don't like doing chores.You will find why in the ____________ paragraph*FIND OUT!!*)
Another reason I wouldn't live with Kenny's parents is because they are crazy. I say this because his mother threatened Byron saying that she was going to burn him if he did it on more single time. I also say this because the mother planned a whole plan on their trip to Birmingham and usually a NORMAL mother would just wait and see what happens on the way there. One other reason I say this is because the dad instead of beating Byron when he got the new hairdo he decide to cut and shave all of Byron's hair completely off.
As I have been writing so far in this essay, I have been talking alot about why i would rather not live with Kenny' parents,Wilona(his mother) and Daniel (his dad). I only say all this stuff because I believe they don't know how to handle me. Many people say that I am very nice,kind,different,funny,a good friend(that part is true),and such swet child.I bet only one third of that stuff is true according to my home life.I am actually according to my home life I am kind of mean,crazy,lazy,and I'm alsoa pain in the..neckbasically I'm different! His parents will NOT be able to handle any of that nonsense and I believe everyone know thats true. Other than that I think they are pretty good parents.

2010!!! THERES GONNA BE A CHANGE............
In 2010 I hope to change many things. One of those things are my grades. I want to change my grades because it takes a scholar student to get in scholar colleges.I plan on doing this by doing all my homework,behaving and participating in class and showing off examples. I also wanna change my mood and attitude. I wanna change my attitude and mood because I don't wanna be the only one in high school eating lunch,reading books and e.t.c in a bathroom stall. I plan on doing this by taking some sort of management class or learning to keep my cool. During this year also known as the start of a new decade,2010 I want it to be a different year and I want to be whole different person.

Reading Response
Reading Response : The Color Of Water-A Black Man’s Tribute to His White Mother
Summary: As I continue reading this book is getting more and more interesting. Right now in the book the main character is talking about his dad and how his mother was an immigrant. He talks about how hard life was and how having a mother from a different race was actually kind of hard. Reading this book so far pulled up many thoughts in ma head, it made me think a lot ,it made me wonder a lot.
Analysis: The one thing I don’t like about this book is that it is kind of scary to think that this guy who is here writing this book right now is actually telling us facts and statement about his life. Other than that this book is perfecto!!! I think that these are the type of books I would read and then say ,let me make a autobiography this sounds really good. ”hmmm”
