Two Truths and a Lie!

Can you spot the lie? In this blog assignment I will be writing two truths and one lie.
As you're reading, try to figure out which one is which.

I have a beautiful tattoo on my right foot. Before I left for college my mom and I decided to get tattoes together, sort of a bounding experience. My mom already has three of them, and I fell in love with each one. To show how much we care about each, in a different way, my mother got my name on her right foot, and I got pink and purple Lilly flowers with swirls and leaves. My mom's mother passed away when she was twelve years old from cancer and her name was Lillian, so my mom has a purple Lilly flower on her left ankle. So mine shows that my mom and her mother will always be together and the swirls are me putting them together.

One of my favorite hobbies is to rock climb. I am an avid 5.10 climber that sometimes attempts and succeeds 5.11s, but not often. One experience I had was far outside Kalispell near Canada at a place called Stone Hill. There is a 5.10 overhang there that I attempted. It had a small base to belay from and past the base was another cliff that went down a few hundred feet to a lake. The climb started with an overhang which took awhile to get past. After the overhang were moderate holds and past that was a small 3 foot shelf that I rested on before jumping to the overhang above me. I finally jumped after much delay and grabbed the hold I needed. I finished the route and got to see the beautiful view at the top of the climb. It was a very challenging route that I now would do over and over again.

For Valentine's Day my super cool roommate handcrafted a card that was 12" by 20" and had cut out foam letters saying "You're the BEST roomate ever. I love you. <3 Sarah" on the inside. She even spelled roommate wrong. On the front has my name in large foam letters and says "Happy Valentines Day" with multicolored hearts. There is also a large white heart with a T in the center and squiggly white foam cut outs projecting out of the hear in the center of the card. There is nothing on the back, but that is okay, because it is still the best card I've ever gotten. It is now hanging infront of my desk on my bed and makes me happy every time I look at it, because i know that she loves me. :]]]]

CSI Las Vegas

So this next blog assignment we have to write about is our favorite television show and why we think it is a great show. My favorite television show is CSI Las Vegas. I have watched this show around the time I became a teenager and have been attached to it ever since. When I first started watching it, certain episodes really scared me and I got nightmares from them. As I got older, it became more easier to watch. I enjoy everything about this television show. The drama, the crime scenes, the different methods people use into murdering someone. It is quite interesting, but also creep at the same time of how much I like this show. My favorite part of the overall show is how they determine who actually committed the crime. In the beginning you think it is this certain person, but then almost at the end they get you with someone random or someone who was involved with the investigation.

I think that everyone should watch CSI, not just Las Vegas, but Miami, New York, or where ever. It is a great show that is exciting, mysterious, creepy, and scary all at the same time. I would not recommend it to little children, but around the age of a teenager is great if someone was interested in watching this show. I love all the different ideas, themes, they use for this show, because they all are quite amazing to watch. It is incredible to see how people come up with over thousands of ideas of how to kill/murder someone. If you carefully watch the different episodes, it is scary to say, but true, that someone could create the perfect murder. I know after watching this show so much, that I know what and what not to do!
