creative hour.

My ideal place would most definetly be a tropical place on the beach. The beach is the most relaxing place a person could ever go. I would have a bed right on the water, with a male servant dressed in a grass skirt. He will bring me whatever I want, whenever I want. The water would have to be teal blue, with doplhins giving me a show, every half hour. There will be palm trees surrounding my cottage on the water. The sun will be up and shinging 12 hours a day. There will be no storms, or hurricanes at my island of dreams. There will be an unlimited amount of food and drinks to go around. Money will not be a problem, the towns people won't have to worry about anything. The sand will be the color of dark flour, and soft as the clouds.

sleepwalking/hallucinations

Sleepwalking is also known as somnambulism. The sleepwalkers arise from a mental state, in low consciousness and do activities that usually one would do under full consciousness. A person could do normal everyday activities, like: doing the dishes, driving a car, cooking, and even grab hallucinated objects. Sleep walking can last 30 seconds up to 30 minutes. Sleepwalking is most common in children, and is usually outgrown by teen years. As we sleep we go through 5 stages: 1,2,3,4 and R.E.M (rapid eye movement). One complete cycle lasts 60 to 100 minutes. On average a person experiences four or five sleep cycles in their sleep. During the steps 3 or 4 is usually when your mind is in a deeper sleep. It is much harder to wake a person up at this stage. The person might feel groggy or disorientated for a couple minutes. Some causes for sleepwalking are : lack of sleep or fatigue, irregular sleep schedules, illness or fever, certain medications, and stress.
Hallucinations come from Latin, and means; to wonder mentally. Hallucinations have been defined as the perception of a nonexistent object or event. Hallucinations involve hearing, seeing, smelling, touching, and even tasting things that are not real. Hallucinations are often caused from schizophrenia. A sign of a hallucination is muscle stiffness in the back and neck. Drugs are also a key factor to hallucinating. Use of ecstasy, LSD, and psilocybin often trigger the effect. Drug withdraw can induce tactile and visual hallucinations. Intoxication's or withdraw to the drugs; cocaine, marijuana, LSD, crack or heroin will cause hallucinations. Electrical or neurochemical activity in the brain is a hallucinatory sensation. Having brain damage will also alter the affect of hallucinations.

Theres a beautiful cornicopia of color, surrounding my body. My life from then to now; how did I get here? Where did this scense of emotion so powerfull and bright come from? Here I am, moving so swift and elegantly, everything depends on me. I remember being attacked by the beautiful people that made me look this way. I was sitting in a gaudy tattered white chair, remeniscing while the exauhsted people painted my face. Daydreaming would be the worst thing to do. I was scared, bewildered, i didnt know what to do. Should i just sit in this horrid chair, or run back to the place that makes me feel good? I hear feet scattering around, the sound gets louder and louder, piercing my ears with the sharp screetches. It just stops, my heart is no longer beating as fast, I calm down. I dont know what just happened, The beauty and warmth I see when I look in the thin sheet of reflection. I look deep into the flowers that cover my face, I look past the paint on my eyes, I no longer see my lips as a puddle of poison. I am beautiful, I no longer feel scared, or nautious. Every breath I take is soft and silky, I hear clear and soft objects moving around me. I can smell the essence of color everywhere. Yellow is a summers morning waking up to a fresh day. Blue is the waves of the ocean crashing upon the shore. I smell the aroma of freshly cut grass on a rainy day when I look at the emerald green lerking on my face. I hear people shouting everywhere "Its show time! ", the beautiful people then fix everything they possibly could get their hands on. I feel a scense of relief that I can now walk briskly on the catwalk, and not feel any hatred. The music starts, I walk forward taking the smallest steps, the lights are bright and shining through the curtains vigarously. The curtain opens, the crowd is clapping, and I walk out onto the platform, no expression. Just dead.

aliens

what if aliens decide to finnaly come down from their center of  life.. what would people do.. like its aliens, we dont want this to happen at all..what will the aliens do to us?.. what if they have a whackload of weapons and decide to kill off the human race? .. what would the humans do?.. i dont think we would have a chance against them. what if the aliens become friends of the humans and the population on earth will increase too high and people will have to die? thats a scary thought.. i mean it would be cool if a human and an alien mated and had little alien humans running around.. we could have super powers.. but what if the superpowers were only bad..and were meant to be used to do bad things. maybe the whole 2012 scenario is just aliens descending onto earth. what if they bring their dominions with them? think of it.. one night your all alone in your house just about to fall asleep and an alien and his little friend show up by your fireplace and start attacking your house. There are many things that we should be worrie about. I dont think aliens would be one. What if the aliens were just minding their own business.. and the aliens are sketching about humans coming to their planet and disrupting their area. That would be cool. But what if we dont have enough oxygen and the whole human race gets dominated. That wouldnt be cool. Their are alot of " what if's" in this situation.. but the real question is.. Do aliens even exist.. or are they a figment of our imagination.

3 best things.

The top three holidays would be Christmas, Easter, and Valentines Day!! :)
First of all.. in all those holidays..you recieve some gifts from people =)
second of all.. you get closer to the people you love
and lastly.. no school!!

So christmas is pretty cool.. you wake up early in the morning and get to rip open wrapped up boxes! ..yay!! ..everyone gets together in your family, and watch everyones glee and cheer light up their faces. Christmas is the time for happiness and no tears! ..unless they're happy tears. Everybody is just so happy on Christmas. During the 2 weeks that you  wont be going to school, you will be throwing snowballs at the little ones and singing christmas carols :)

Easter is pretty much the same thing..but you dont get 2 weeks off school... we only get usually a day or
two..blaahh.. but you get to wake up and look for all the chocolate that the "easter bunny" ... laid out. At the end of the day you will be feeling sick and nautious.. but at least you have enough chocolate to last you more than a month ;) after all of the chocolate eating and the relaxing, the family comes over and sits down at the big table and either has ham or turkey...these holidays just love to fatten us up.

Valentines Day will be my favourite of all.. all of the love going around..you walk around town and you see all of the cute little couples :) .. even if you dont miss school..well you can if you want..but its not scheduled, you get to spend the day with your loved one. This lasts all day!! .. its so romantic, all the roses and chocolate and romantic dinners. Its just so cute! Elementary school is the best for valentines day.. all the little kids get to make little valentines cards and envelopes for all their classmates.. Valentines day will never get old.

time travel

If i could travel back in time and go back to any historical event it would probably be... DINOSAURS! I mean how awsome would it be to hang out with dinosaurs..of course i would have invisibility and I wouldnt be able to get hurt..The dinosaurs would love me like their own mother:) I would find a way to train the dinosaurs to be household pets :) NO MORE EXTINCTION! These dinosaurs that I will be training will be top of the line.. No whining, No Back talk, and definetly No More Carnivores!! ..well they can eat meats..just not the human type. I will only be training the dino's that are in need.. The ones that are already nice.. ( herbivores) ..don't need any special attention.. I will make humans their friend and i will train them to attack anyone that i want them to :) My hardest dino to train will be the T-Rex..but the end results will be world dominating!! ..not literally. At the end of my 1 year training session my new buddies will then be able to be sold by me, to a new family.. but the dino will have to choose what family it would want to go to..the family will not be able to choose the dino unfortunatly.. it will be very sad to watch my dino's grow up..but they will no longer be extinct and I will have a tracking devise in all of the dino's so i can see them whenever i want to..and if the family that has the dino doesnt like this decision..well..just remember..i have control over them :)
Love Rachel
