Hey!  Beast (aka Brian) Winslow here.  Hope this finds you well and reasonably happy.  As for me, I am sooo ready for summer vacay:  school is really gettin' old fast!  I cannot wait to sleep in every day; this getting up at the crack of dawn to wait for the school bus is for the birds!!

So how is life treatin' you?  It's treatin' me okay; really can't complain (much), except my baby sister, Aurora Deanne, who is six, continues to be a  pain in my tukus.  She whines more than an irritating fly; that kid is never happy unless the world revolves around her!  She drives me bat crazy! 

Eden and Paisley aren't too bad, thank God, but even they have their moments.  Paisley has discovered boys and has a boyfriend (at 11 years of age????), and Eden is on a horse kick.  Everything she talks about has to do with horses; I am so sick of horses I can just scream!!  She wants one thing for her tenth birthday in November; three guesses as to what it is.  It starts with the letter H and ends in "orse".  LOL

As for myself, I can't believe that this school year has flown by so fast.  It seemed like only yesterday when I first entered high school; now I'm no longer going to be the low end of the academic totem-pole.  I am going to be a big shot sophomore; next year I will be able to look down on the baby-faced freshmen and women and say, "Neener, neener, neener!"  LOL  (Or at least I'm hoping I pass!! LOL)

I hope this year that a trip to Cedar Point Amusement Park is in order.  Cedar Point is located on Lake Erie, in Sandusky, and it is one of the nation's premier amusement park destinations.  They boast 17 roller coasters, scream machines from "the mild to the wild", and they have a ton of other rides besides the coasters.  I have been seeing the ads for Cedar Point on our tv, and I would really love to go and check it out for myself.  That is another thing I love: roller coasters.  Man, I really dig roller coasters; the wilder they are, the faster they are, the better!  :)

I bet my sisters would love Cedar Point.  I know I would!!  I am gonna have to do some heavy-duty convincing to mom and dad to take us to Ohio so we can visit "The Point"!  :)  (Or be on our extra-best behavior!)

The weather here in Pennsylvania has turned nice: sunny and warm some days, with flowers and trees in full bloom.  Don't have to tell me that:  my allergies tell me all the time; am allergic to all pollens, grasses, trees.  *AchhhHChhhOOoooo!!*)  Still, I am glad summer is about here because it won't be long before the Fourth of July fireworks or shootin' off bottle rockets and firecrackers with my friends at the park! 

Which reminds me of the last Fourth of July, when a bottle rocket chased my friend Gabi all over the yard.  Swear to howdy that thing had a heat-sensing device in it; poor Gabi was screamin' like a girl!  It was hilarious; ever since, we don't let Gaby Fuentes forget about it; we tease him all the time.  LOL

Ah, yes.  Summer.  O, summer, how I love thee ... let me count the ways ...  (Shakespeare, I am not.  LOL)

Well, I gotta go; school bell just rang; gotta chug on over to homeroom and then to my first class, which is Trigonometry.  I will write in here again soon; sorry it's taken so long since my first entry.  I'm just not really one for writing; I really have to be in the mood before I pick up a pen and a piece of paper.  LOL  Hope you forgive me.  Hopefully I won't wait a year before I write in here next time.  Take care and may God bless you!  Bye for now!

~"Beast" (aka Brian).  :)
