Ganna-Africa

         12. fang-like icicles that make your house look like monster mouths

         13.snow angels

         14.a cat purr vibrating through your skin

         15.vampires

         16.playing with the rubbery residue after you let glue dry on your skin

         

            It is impossible to keep up with this. :0 Anyways I should probably explain what don't eat the monkey means, It is about north Africa (where they eat monkeys) And a American family moved to Kenya and brought there pet monkey. The family went on vacation and left there monkey at there home. The village's chefs wife caught the monkey and cooked it, when the family got back they were devistaed. so it pretty much means dont assume until you know. Ganna is the place hanna was when she heard this in the book "Reasons to be happy".

Starting it all

1. A dogs smile
2. hiking by moonlight
3. making lists
4. ghost stories
5. winning a race

These are all things to be happy for. (if your interested, I have 120 and counting) ,"I saw so many reasons to be happy, I started making a list." The best quote ever. I got it from one of the best books that a 12 year old girl can read when she doesn't fit in. Praise to Katrina Kettle!

Now, because of that book, I'm on my own personal quest, a quest to find Happiness in all the little things that everyone will brush off as just fun. Well everyone except for me. I see those as fillers. Your personal happiness is like a gas tank, you fill it up with things that just make you happy A.K.A: Every thing on my amazing list. But things like school (and 7th grade) will ware your tank out and it will become empty, so my mission is to keep my tank full. Now I'm all for world pace, so I think that everyone should have there opinion. But lets face it, that's never going to happen, so all I can do , is Keep me happy and everyone I love and care about. Everybody has there own list, where I have a dogs smile someone might have "A cats pur" but my list it my own and, for example, my sisters list would be hers. (not that she has one)

       7. jumping on the trampoline int he rain

       8. Dark chocolate melting in your mouth

       9. the way frosted grass crunches underneath your feet

     10. big wool sweaters

     11. exploring attics and basements

I have trouble at school a lot, but remember, people like that will make fun of an thing, and I mean everything they can find that they don't have! I'm trying to find other people who will share my wish, so that my start can some day finish. (Im tired all ready ;P)

P.S: don't eat the monkey is an old African saying that bean don't assume something until you know, I'll explain more next time

Yours truly, LFH

P.P.S: LFH means Looking For Happiness
