Bingham High School SUCKS

So check this out. My little cousin Seilose is a sophomore at Bingham High School. She was the top debater for the debate team. She had a 4.0 GPA, and a straight A student. She was accused of changing her grades in her math class. The day after she was accused her math teacher (Mrs. Boucher) went on maternity leave. the administration for Bingham asked her to try to prove that she did not changer grades on the computer. Thank goodness Seilose keeps every single thing that she has, because she had her paper copies of her test and they all matched her grades on the computer that she supposedly changed. The administration, Mr. Hicks and Mrs. Gentry, did NOT do anything about her proof. Instead they said that they are going to wait until her teacher comes back from maternity leave. But while they are waiting the school still decided to strip her from all her titles and not let her run for class president for next year. While all of this is going on she has received 2 letters in her locker and 3 emails form someone in the school confessing that they changed her grades and calling her names and telling her they wished she was dead. The letters expressed that they were upset with Seilose for running for president and later letters showed their satisfaction of her not being able to run. She has taken these letters and emails to the administration and they said that they are not going to do anything about it because she could be writing herself these emails and letters. Its sad to see a school be like this. I have gone up there to check the cameras for myself but no luck was there. The police ( Officer Clark ) won't help and the Principle will not pursue anything with these letters because he says they are not threatening. They are pathetic. Two other students have come to other admins and told them they suspected a specific girl name Jessica Vanderkooi of writing the emails because of a piece of paper they found at her desk in class that said the exact same thing verbatim on the emails. They just say that it is a coincidence. I cannot begin to tell you the frustrations that we have been going through with this situation. Nobody is trying to help with anything about the letters and the false accusations of her cheating. So if anyone has any ideas or knows anybody that will listen to us! Let me know!! Thank you for reading!

Question....

Are you missing your sweetheart? You may be thinking of him/her as he/she is now not with you. He/she is far away from you and you are missing each moment, each phase of life once you spent with each other. Its hard to stop your heart and eyes crying and looking for only one glance of your lover. I miss you constantly… all the time. It doesn’t pass. I wish it does… I usually take a moment waiting for it to pass. I try turning my attention to something else. I work, I write, I run, I exhaust myself to the point of helplessness just as so I will not have enough energy or time to miss you. But it just won’t go away. It takes over or co-exist with everything else inside or positions itself in between everything else. But it doesn’t go away. I have never missed anyone this much that it makes my body ache literally. I tried crying. Tears have a magical way of allowing people to feel a little better under different circumstances. That’s useless too. I cry myself to sleep or I cry in the middle of work and I still would miss you with the same intensity, with the same passion, with the same pain. It’s just way too deep that even tears can’t reach it. Relationships are very rarely "perfect" and they are always going to have some issues that develop depending on place, and situation, but many times, what it takes is communication and the mutual effort to work on "things". This brings me to my point: I'm torn. There is a question that needs answering here … and it is not "do you make me happy" but rather: Being that relationships are never easy, am I worth the effort? Are we worth the effort?

Family Time

These past few weeks have been exciting for my little family. We took a trip to Pittsburgh to celebrate Easter and my birthday! I turned 26 (I am getting old :( )  
I spent my birthday with so many people that I love. It has been so far the best birthday for a long time. 
 

We came home for a few days then took a last minute family trip to Disney World in Florida. It was my kids first time to ever be there. They had a blast! They lasted from 11a.m to 11:30p.m. They were such troopers and got to meet and see some of their favorite Disney characters.  
 

 It was Deuce's 6th birthday. That is why we spent it in Florida. But we also celebrated it when we got back home to Utah. We continued our family time at a movie. Which I fell asleep from all the traveling that day! I couldn't have asked for a better 6th birthday for my big boy.
 Now we are back to reality, and things are as they were before our trips and fun. Missing things that I used to have and then some. It has been such a great experience for my kids to see everyone happy and for me to see my kids happy! I am a BIG joker about serious things and situations that I am in, but no matter what life throws at me I will always have them. Through humor, you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it.
