Biography Of Ashley C. By Elisa C.


One of my favorite people of whome I love to write about, would be Ashley Anne Cox.

Born November 7th, 1996, she came into this world a happy, giggly, bouncing baby girl. As she grew through the years, she always was a curious person who loved to keep herself content and entertained. The curious side of her personality included always wanting to figure out how things worked. She could always focus and concentrate on something until she could figure it out. For instance, one time in second grade, Ashley wanted to make cookies. She was told she could not make cookies by herself. She was never taught. Low and behold, one and a half hours later, to many family member's surprise, Ashley had grabbed an old cook book and read on her own how to make chocolate chip cookies. She only needed several questions answered and the rest was all by herself. She even checked the oven for pots and pans before she turned it on.

Perhaps one of Ashley's greatest qualities would be her ability to tell the truth, the truth is very important to Ashley, even if it is sometimes not what the person would want to hear. This quality about her has been demonstrated often when interacting with her friends and family.

We all agree that if you want the truth, we can always count on Ashley. Mrs. Perrigo, Ashley's fifth grade teacher, once said that if she was ever in need of knowing the truth that she could always count on Ashley, whether it be on a personal basis or goings on in the classroom while the teacher was not present.

Ashley's generosity has always been a huge strength. Her ability to give of her time and money (when she has it) , her ability to solve a problem or to volunteer, always astounds. She helps out her family chores and is always ready to help, even with her little brother's homework.

Ashley is generally in good spirits, mostly, always quick with a shy smile and a little gleam in her eye that says, "I see you deeply." To her friends and people who know her, she is bubbly, happy and a bit hyper at times but always fun loving. this quality in her personality is why people are drawn to her.

One thing Ashley is working on improving is her ability to get things done in the last minute. She sometimes gets so wrapped up in what she is doing that she isn't aware of the time passing by. This enables her to forget projects that are due in school the next day or getting into the shower right before she goes to bed. She is now trying to see this quality in herself and and is trying to keep in mind what time she needs to get to bed by in order to to get the necessary things done in time before her head hits the pillow.

The best thing about Ashley is knowing that life is better because of all the people she touches with her gentle (sarcastic at times) sense of humor, her sweet smile, her generous spirit, helpfulness, caring, trusting, truthful soul and most of all, her loving heart. The world is truly a better place because of Ashley Anne Cox.








My laughter

The things in laugh that make me laugh are important to me. Laughter is my favorite thing in the whole wide world and I often let it show. Although somethings I laugh about may not be the nicest things, they are still very funny and bring me great joy through humor. I mostly find myself laughing at other people's troubles, pain, disappointment, confusion, etc. I know it's not right and that I should not laugh at people's mistakes, but I am not laughing at them, I am laughing at the mistake or issue they had. I also laugh at some of the most random stuff, someone could say moldy foosball and I'd crack up. Sometimes, I work things out in my head that could happen and then I start to laugh at a, usually very, inappropriate time. Laughter is the greatest and that is what my friend Riley and I do on the bus almost everyday.

One time, my friend Riley and I were bored on the bus a really long time ago. She was eating cough drops and had accidentally dropped one on the seat. Of course the seat had an unidentifiable amount of children's butts that had previously sat there, and Riley decided it was best not to eat the cough. I supplied her with the idea of feeding it to someone unsuspecting.

Wrapping the cough drop up and feeding it to someone wasn't good enough though, so Riley took the cough drop and rubbed it in the space between the seat's leg and the floor where most of the dirt was collected. Riley then rubbed the cough drop in the person sitting in the seat in front of her's hair to rub off the noticeable dirt.

After the cough drop only had a few marks from rubbing against small rocks, Riley wrapped the cough drop back up and handed it to me. I asked some random kid if he wanted a cough drop with a completely straight face. He told us that he had been having a cough lately and that he would be much obliged to have it. Hiding my face, I threw the cough drop so hard I thought it burst against the window. The boy had said it was lost and both mine and Riley's heart sank. Then a few seconds later, he found it and placed it into his mouth.

When we looked back after we thought he had lost it, we saw the bugle in his cheek and started laughing hysterically. I laughed so hard that my eyes watered and my stomach hurt. As for Riley, she laughed until she cried.

Although our trick was mean, it was so hilarious that I have remembered it all this time and it still brings me a good laugh every now and then. Riley and I can always count on each other for an entertaining bus ride home.







My creativity.

For my creativity, I decided to write a story.


Have you ever dreamed of being a superhero? Well, for just a small fee of money and time, you too can become the next greatest superhero! Atleast, that's what a young boy from Wisconsin did.

Damien Woggarts was fourteen at the time he got his superpowers. Instead of some normal (If you'd like to call them normal. Common would be a much more appropriate word.) super powers, Damien had gotten amazing and abnormal (ab-common) superpowers! Damien's life has never been the same.

On April 4th of 2008, Damien Woggarts and his family (consisting of his mother, father, and adopted cousin) took a trip a trip to Scotland for a break from their dull everyday life. They all (mostly the mom and dad) decided to go to a lake. While they were at the lake, Damien had to use the restroom. Unfortunately, rarely anyone anyone visited the lake, creating cheap lodging, but no public restrooms at any of the local attractions. Damien made the final decision of going to the bathroom behind a bush. As Damien headed toward a huddle of large shrubberies, he thought he heard heavy breathing or a slight growl, maybe even an asthmatic. After Damien had finished doing his business, he turned around to enjoy the blue, blue and even more blue-ish view of the lake. Blocking his view was a huge, black beast. "His mother?" You may ask, but no, it was much, much bigger.He looked up, only to see two red eyes glaring down upon him.

As son as Damien had saw them, he knew there was nothing he could do to save his life. The next thing that happened was the utmost predictable, he was traveling down the Loch Ness Monster's esophagus. Once Damien was down in the stomach, he had realized he could breathe. No, Damien had not grown gills, but he had landed in a stomach bubble! A smelly stomach bubble but atleast he could live a bit longer, so he sat down.

"Hey there!" A perky but gruff voice came out of no where, which was totally unexpected.

Damien looked around but did not see anyone else in the stomach with him. "Uh. . . Hello?" He looked at the bottom of his bubble and saw a grubby little face looking up at him. Damien screamed and jumped when he discovered he was not alone.

"Don't be afraid, Little Feller! Gary won't hurt ya!"

The next thing Damien knew, there was an obnoxious hobo taking up most of the room in his bubble. "Holy crap!" Damien was frozen in place and utterly terrified.

"Don't be afraid! I'm Gary!" The hobo then started to pet Damien's hair, which creeped him out even more.

"Please don't hurt me, I have a severe sickness and only a few--" Damien was interrupted by the mysterious hobo's laughter. He couldn't believe it, why was this hobo laughing at him? "Why are you laughing at me? The least you could do is take me seriously before you eat me."

"The name's Gary. Been right here for twenty years. It's a mighty fine pleasure to meet you. . ." Gary still didn't know Damien's name.

"Damien. . . Damien Woggarts."

After several days of spending several days and nights in the Loch Ness Monster's stomach there came a very alarming rumbling that awoke both Gary and Damien.

"We're getting out of here!" exclaimed Gary. Just as soon as he spoke, his bubble floated through the roof of the stomach. Damien could feel his bubble rising and soon, his bubble popped! He almost drown, for he had been caught in the Loch Ness Monster's throat. He awoke to Gary beating on his lower stomach. "Ah! What the heck, Gary?" Damien pushed Gary away and could feel his stomach bruising.

"I was giving you CPR. I didn't want to be out in the real world alone." Gary looked down and started sulking.

Damien looked around, squinting at first. It looked around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, not night time at all. Nothing looked familiar from when he had first been swallowed, they could have traveled miles and Damien wouldn't know it. He looked back at the Loch Ness Monster just in time to shout "NO!" before he swallowed them again. The Loch Ness Monster looked at Damien, then at Gary and Damien realized what he must do. He had to train the Loch Ness Monster to leave tourists alone. And also hobos. It would be a long process but it would pay off in the end.

After two long years and all of the money in his wallet, Damien had successfully tamed Nessie, in return, Nessie promised Damien one wish, he wished for Gary and him to have super powers. After he made the wish, Nessie disappeared, and now it is up to Damien and Gary to discover what they are.

Ashley Anne,



My character
When I demonstrate kindness of any sort, I always consider fairness before I make any final decisions. When I think of fairness, I think of ways to be fair while keeping everyone's best interest in mind. There are many ways to find fairness in one part of a problem, but sometimes you might have to try a little harder to find a fair solution that works, while also keeping everyone happy. I think I am good at finding ways to be fair and honest, and also kind. Here is just one way that I have demonstrated spontaneous kindness in a way that helped me to feel humble, and to also be able to put myself into someone else's shoes.

On a dreary Winter's day, I was tagging along with my parent's to Bi-Mart in search of my grandmother's Christmas wish. When out of the car, I placed my foot upon the rain-drenched parking lot and noticed an odd feeling beneath my right foot. When I looked down at where my foot had previously been placed, I saw the turquoise color of an Oregon Trail card that had been soaking in the rain.

When I first picked the card up, there were several thoughts going through my mind: My family was struggling for money this Holiday Season and there was some that was just sitting there, free for the taking. Another thought I was having was how badly the people missing the card must be doing financially since they were on food stamps, especially during Christmas time. It was the last thought that put my dilemma to rest. If I were to take this Oregon Trail card, and keep it for my own, I would be taking money from someone who obviously needed it more than us. As I walked into Bi-Mart, I stopped by the customer service desk and let the lady working there know the whereabouts of the lost card.

After looking for my grandma's gift, we retreated from the store not being able to find it. But one thing that I learned that day was to always choose kindness at any opportunity you can. It was a good way to start off my Christmas break.




My Body.

The ways that I am able to keep my body healthy are:

-By exercising
And
-Eating right.

I exercise everyday! Whether it just be a stroll around the neighborhood, or a full blown, vigorous workout at my uncle's gym, I make sure and maintain a healthy amount of exercise in my everyday life. Exercise is important to me because it helps to keep me strong and healthy. It also helps you to feel alert and not sluggish.

Eating right is another way I keep myself healthy. If you eat the right amount of fruits and vegetables, it can work wonders on how well and long you are able to work out and exercise. I always have fruits and vegetables in my daily diet and it allows me to stay healthy and they keep me happy and keep me from getting depressed, especially the kinds of foods that have vitamin D in them.

Since I live in Oregon, it is difficult for me to always get Vitamin D, especially in the winter. Vitamin D keeps me from feeling anxiety and Depression. I have a lack of it because I do not get enough sun so I have to make sure and eat fruits and vegetables with enough Vitamin D to keep me happy.

Eating right and exercising go hand in hand, and that is why they are import to keep in your everyday life.

My Appearance.
My appearance is how I am defined. Many labels are out there and many people also choose to use them. I, however, think they are a way of being immature and trying to judge people when it's not necessary.

I am fourteen years of age and I am 5'6". I have naturally wavy and dark brown hair. My hiar is short at the moment, but it has been growing since 6th grade and is now shoulder length, a little lower actually, but I wear hair extensions to get it the length I want it. I have light blue eyes and very pale skin. I am a female and have no freckles and most of the time, clear skin (Woot! Woot!). I'm happy just the way I am and I have learned to live with the imperfections that make me, me.








My feelings.
I express my feelings in healthy ways as much as I can, but sometimes I express feelings that make me sad and it is much harder to express those feelings healthily.

One time, I was at Best Buy and I had saved up a whole bunch of money to go and buy CD's. As i was walking out the door, I realized I had no CD player to play them in. I decided to tell my mother about my troubles, but the only advice she had to offer was just to save up some more money and buy a CD player.

I was upset that I'd have to wait even longer to be able to listen to my CD's since it had already took me so much time and money to buy them all. I decided not to focus on the bad, but instead, focus on how wonderful it would be to listen to the CD's once I did get my CD player.

I stepped of the sidewalk and a man came up to me, holding the change from the purchase he had just made. He hesitantly handed me a ten dollar bill and forced a smile. It was so unexpected that I almost forgot to say thank you to the man who had just given me enough money for a CD player.

I felt so happy after that, that I felt obligated to share my new wealth, just as the man had shared with me. While standing at the cash register, I noticed a small acrylic box that was collecting money for a local charity. With all the change I had left, I shoved it in the little box and felt so glad to help someone who needed something, just as I had only minutes ago.

Instead of always dwelling on bad feelings, like not having enough money and having to wait a long to time to be able to listen to my CD's, I thought of how great my life would be after I got my CD player and was able to listen to my CD's. Almost immediately after I had expressed my feelings in a healthy and positive manner, I was rewarded by being given enough money to fix the problem I was facing. Ever since that day, I have always tried my best to express my feelings in a very healthy way.







My Relationships.

Relationships are important in life and the best people I know are the people I have healthy relationships with.


One healthy relationship I have is with my mother, Elisa. She has always been such a good listener with me and she could never judge me no matter what were to happen.. She doesn't overreact about the small things like some parents would do, and that is why I always trust her when I need someone to talk to. I will always tell her what's going on in my life, and I never ever try to hide things from her.

Another healthy relationship I have is with my grandpa, George. My grandpa is getting very old. Since my grandmother died, he has been very lonely and sad. My grandpa likes to have me around to help him with chores and to just have another living person around his home other than his cat and very obese dog. I can always count on my grandpa to give me a good laugh. He is very special to me and he is my most important person.

My friend Kelli is responsible for my most fun relationship. She can also be trusted with almost anything. She is honest and fair with me and is undoubtedly my bestest friend! Kelli has been home schooled all of her life and is a part of a family that is extremely active in church and a ton of church activities. In fact, I met Kelli at a church camp that my grandma enrolled me in and now it is the highlight of my year. Kelli and I are always finding ways to make each other laugh and smile and we can always be honest with each other.

Another one of my healthy relationships is with my aunt Kathy. We are both Scorpios so we understand each other's crude and sarcastic humor. We can always find ways to laugh and we enjoy the same activities so we can always have fun together! Although sometimes we can be a little rude and appear mean, we are really just joking and trying to have fun.
