Love is what you make it...



What does the word, LOVE, mean to you? We all have many different answers to that. Love is a very strong word. So, I write, to find out what love is in my own heart and words.

Love is not only a word. Its a feeling. A feeling of trust, loyalty, respect and dedication thrown all into one. Its a mixture of feelings, so well mixed, it starts giving you butterflies, your knees get weak and your heart begins to melt.

While reading this, you may think that love is a beautiful thing, PERIOD. But! Like everything and everyone else, there should be a bad side. From my past experiences, love is so easy to get into, but hard to get out of. You may be so very happy, but love doesn't always lasts forever.

Here is a poem about love that I want you to take a look at.
For the first time I felt
this true love in my heart
it is buried so deep
and that I would always keep

All through the darkest night
you’re the brightest star in my sight
always been at my side
even in a grisly fright

You clothe me when I shiver
with your ever warm embrace
you’re the moon that lights my way
that makes me feel very gay

You wipe the tears on my cheeks
the tears of joy that I’ve seek
and it’s you, my love, my divine
That makes me shine so bright

You’re the sun in my sky
staring at me with all your might
guiding me with your ever shining light

For the first time in my life
I found my love and my life
without you I will cry
for you my love I will die!
-Sharmaine Pearl Seno
Now, I have a better understanding of what is love and how it works. I hope that somwhere in the future, I find real, sincere love. And remember, love is what you make it.

C'est La Vie

Rolling blackouts. Such a little thing,Yet causes so much insanity. We have these constant power outages that doesn't just affect me, but the people around me too.

The C.U.C keeps bursting my bubble! C.U.C, which is called The Commonwealth Utilities Corporation, has been the headline of the C.N.M.I for the past several years.

When the power goes off, it causes many catastrophes throughout the island. There are stores and homes being robbed and more and more people being under stress. At home, when the power goes off, it gets extremely hot. I mean, we live in a tropical island where it's a hot environment and why does it have to be hotter than it is now? It's so frustrating!

These power outages stop me from doing things in my life. For example, I am reading a book in my room, at night, for an upcoming book report. And then the power goes off! I lose track of what im reading and where was I. I think that there should be many changes to be done for all the resident people to live the life they once did.
But as for now, C'est La Vie!

Entering High School, A Big Stepping Stone.

Ten months ago, I first set foot on a high school campus. It gave me chills. Knowing that there will be more than what you expect was exciting yet scary at the same time. Compared to Hopwood, which was the previous shool that i attended,there were way more people,much more subjects to learn and the atmosphere was really different.

High school is so much harder than any other school. Epecially for the upcoming students. The original number of credits to earn in order to graduate was 24 credits. But as of this year, P.S.S raised up the credits to 28. Some advice to the future freshmen out there, do good the first and upcoming years. You wouldn't want to retake any courses.
Here are some of my guidelines. You may choose to follow:
1. Try your best.
2. Don't let any social life problems get in the way.
3. Don't do drugs in school!
4. Follow your school's regulations. (such as dress code)
5. Don't or try not to fail any classes.

At Saipan Southern High school, the school I attend now, I learn that there are no second chances. just keep trying or START trying as hard as you can. You may be having so much fun in High School, but don't get caught up in it. Don't do what you'll regret, but do the impossible!

charles lindbergh, an american aviator.



during the period of research, i found out many interesting facts. but only one certain question caught my attention. the question, who was the first man to fly from new york to Paris was amazing. not only did i find out who was that certain person, but i found out a whole lot of other great things he had accomplished , and the painful things he has been through.


Charles Lindbergh was the first man to fly from new york to paris. knowing that he was the first man to do that was very exciting to me. when i read his biography, he was in the height of his fame, but tragedy st rucked. his son, Charles Lindbergh Jr., was kidnapped for ransom.Charles was willing to pay the ransom but the poor child was never returned. 2 months later they found the baby's remains in a nearby park, called Hopewell woods.

Knowing that a father can go through tough times lets me know that he was a relly strong person back then. although he id gone now, he will live in everyone's hearts. I now learn that fame could lead to tragedy in life.
