As many of you know our economy really is in a down fall. I recently found out that my dad lost his job. They decided to shut down his facilty in Port Washington. They did however offer him a job in PA. I am not sure what his decision will be or what will happen. He has till March 13th to decide for sure. If he chooses to move out there me and my brothers will not see him at all, or very rarely. We would have to fly out every once in a while, and maybe not even at all. I live with my dad and i do not have a room at my moms anymore. I would either have to move to PA with my dad or figure out something and move in with my mom. I am just really sad that this happened but i do know some people got it way worse and i am trying to tell myself that but its hard already when my parents are divorced and than this happens. I am really close with my family and i would hate to have my dad a thousand miles away from me. I wouldnt be able to see my little sibilings grow up and be around them like i am now. I know this decision is going to take a lot of thinking and such, but my hope is that they dont move. I know everything will work out and everything will come together.

I am the type of person that likes to listen to music, exercise, talk to someone that will listen, and write poetry to get rid of my stress or anger. I find it extremely relaxing to exercise when i am upset or just in a bad mood. It relieves all my stress for the most part. When i listen to music it also relaxes me but i listen to the lyrics more so than the beat of a song. The words make me think and the stress drifts away as i listen. When i talk to someone it helps to get it out but its not always the best idea to do because usually with me the person i talk to just gets mad at me for coming to her with my "problems". I tend to go to other people now. I talk to my mom a lot. I use to never talk to my mom about anything. Than last summer i moved out and moved in with my dad. She was not very happy, she was more hurt than anything. Ever since i moved out i became so much closer with her. I am not afraid to tell her anything. I also go to my high school softball coach a lot. She is a very wise person and she has helped me through a lot these past years of my life. I could not thank her or my mother enough for what they do for me. Lastly, i love to write. If i had the time to jsut sit and write all day i would. I love to express my feelings through poetry. When i do have time i do write. I mostly write about how i feel or about love and happiness. I also write about sad things as well. I just feel that these ways of releasing stress and anger help me realize that everything is going to be okay.
