My Favorite Apps

5. iTranslate: iTransalte is so helpful to me not only for Spanish homework help, but to learn new vocabulary that I sometimes wonder about. Every word in Spanish that I ever need to know is just a touch away! Also, Spanish is not the only language this app has to offer! Any language you can think of can be found on this app!

4. Pic Collage: I love using Pic Collage to put my favorite photos together to create an awesome screen saver! It’s so fun and easy to put all of my best memories together in just one place!

3. Candy Crush: Candy Crush is so fun to play when I’m board! It’s so incredibly addicting. Candy Crush is so interesting and always offers a new challenge!

2. Twitter: Twitter is so fun to visit whenever I am wondering about what my favorite celebrities are up to. Almost all celebrities have a twitter and it’s also fun to interact with your friends on twitter!

1. Netflix: Netflix is so amazing and contains almost all of my favorite shows! I always visit. Netflix when I’m board or when I’m sick and need some entertainment.

Challenge Week 2: Paddle Boarding

If you are visiting Austin in the summer, there is one thing that you have to do! That’s paddle boarding.

My favorite place to paddle board is lady bird lake. It so fun to go there and see all of the boats and people passing by! I love going there with my family and friends ever summer!

The first time I went paddle boarding, I was so scared to stand up. Once I finally did, I realized it was really easy to keep your balance! Once I got the hang of it, I went all of the time!

One of the best things about Lady Bird Lake is the location. It is right downtown! So while your paddle boarding, you get to see a beautiful view of the Austin City Skyline!

I’m can’t wait for summer so I can go paddle boarding again!

The Phantom’s Lair

As I walk though the entry way, I realize instantly the way that the room gives off a creepy, light feel. It is immaculate. It feels so empty, even though it’s not. It is clear that the residence of the room tried to make the room feel relaxing or calming, but only made it feel eerie. So eerie.

The color of the room is white. The floors are white, the walls are white, the curtains are white, even the ceiling is white! There also candles. Typically, candles give off a nice warm, cozy feel. But not here. Not when the entire floor is lined with the deep burning flames that seem to say, “watch out, I’m watching you”. Not when I am so nervous I can’t help but tremble. Not when I don’t know what’s behind each and every corner.

There may not be a person standing there, right in front of me, but you can feel a presence. Not even a human presence. I may not be able to see it with my eyes, but I know it’s there.

I can feel the cold wind blowing onto my back. I can practically feel the arms wrapping around me. I quickly turn around and stare into the distance and realize there’s no one there. I turn back around, and keep walking.
