Hael Carter



I am staring at the window again. It is night and it’s fairly dark outside. I can see the stars very clearly but I do not see the moon. The cars are still constantly moving and disappearing through buildings. I saw more than five stars 3 nights ago, but today, I can only see one big star in the sky. Interestingly, this reminds me of a story that I’d written almost 5 years ago. The story is about Hael Carter who is a fictional character created by me when I was 10 years old. I made 2 thick comic books about her life but I’ve only shown them to my little sister. The modified version of this story is similar to Star Trek (the new version).

Hael Carter is an intelligent girl. She has purple eyes with blue hair. Unlike us, her skin is blue colored and she is not from earth. She is a human from a completely different world. Even though she was from a different world, she was born on earth and it all happened tragically. Her parents loved traveling through space by spaceships. When they were traveling through space, they discovered a beautiful planet—earth. So they decided to visit earth before heading home. Their spaceship was soon discovered by a military plane from earth and was shot down. The parents of Hael both immediately died but Hael survived the crash. She hardly remembers the crash because she was only 4 months old but she claims that she remembers her parents vividly. She also claims that she remembers her parent’s bodies taken by humans while she was taken to the lab. When Hael Carter was 8 years old, she was sent to a private school. She was exposed to the world of humans. There were other similar students like her. Some of them were grays, reptilians, and other form of humanoids. Overall, she goes to this private school and learns more about earth. She makes friends and discovers the darkest secrets of all times. The picture on the left depicts Hael. The picture below depicts her best friend. I forgot her name.
PS: I drew these pictures.

The Undomestic Godess

The Undomestic Godess is a novel written by Sophie Kinsella. She works at Financial Times but she wrote many books that are best sellers. I read many of her books but I liked this book,The Undomestic Godess, in particular. This novel is a story about Samantha Sweeting. She works at a very prestigious law firm called Carter Sprink. Her ability to finish her tasks and work intellectually is admired by her colleagues. However, she works constantly and non-stop. Her life is very uptight. Forexample, she always has her blackberry next to her so she can check her emails. She reviews legal documents and writes reports. She can't stand wasting every second of her life;she was a perfectionist. Once, she was in a massage salon but she got out of there after 5 minutes. She also schedules her daily life every 6 minutes. Her life is all 'perfect' because she earns lots of money, works at a very prestigious lawfirm in London and graduated from Oxford. Even though her life seems perfect, she is disorganized. She has a messy office desk. Her house is a mess. However, one day, something happened to her. Samantha had a report to review, the Glazerbrooks, but she didn't review it before the deadline. As a matter of fact, the deadline was way over due. Samantha has a hard time acknowledging this because she is a perfectionist. She can't believe that she has lost more 5o million pounds. Now, she considers herself a failure. The law firm fires her from the firm. She can't think straight. So, she decides to ride any train and arrives at the last station. She goes into a random house and meets the Geiger family. The Geiger family recognizes Samantha as a housekeeper and pays Samantha. Samantha decides to work as a housekeeper because she wants to settle and calm herself. Samantha, an intelligent layer who doesn't know how to cook or clean, finds herself in a challenging position. She struggles to iron clothes and to cook. Then, Samantha meets a gardener. He is young and strong. His name is Nathaniel. Samantha gets friendly with Nathaniel and they soon like each other. Samantha learns how to cook delicious food because Nathaniel's mom teaches her. Samantha learns how to enjoy and relax in her spare time. She does something that she has never done before. She falls in love with Nathaniel. Later, the Geiger family finds out that Samantha used to be a lawyer. They are surprised because the Geiger family has always thought she was unintelligent and dumb. Carter Sprink finds out that Samantha is innocent;she has been wronged. Someone else was responsible for the report that was over due and he was trying to take advantage of her. Carter Sprink offers Samantha one of the highest positions in the law firm. However, if she chooses to accept the offer, she will lose everything. She will lose Nathaniel and her free time. Moreover, she will have to go back to her old life. Samantha finally makes the decision. I won't tell you guys how it ends. I personally enjoyed this book because it was like watching a movie. Even though this book took me two days to finish, it felt like I was watching a 2 hour movie. The image that is created in my head as I read this book looks so real. But I didn't like when the book dragged too much on particular parts of the story. I was actually extremely annoyed while I was reading because there were too many repetitive suspense. Other than that, the book was awesome.

Weirdest Dream




Two days ago, I had one of the strangest dreams ever and I thought it would be interesting to post this up on my blog. In my dream, I was living in a duality where two different worlds met. There were portals everywhere that led to another world; but, not many people were aware of the existence of these portals. In fact, most of them had no knowledge of the existence of the other world because it was very powerful and magical. Anyone who entered the other side of the world was given this magical power to fly and do anything with their minds. Well, it all started out very spontaneously and randomly. I was in my class when a guy from my class told me there was an old building behind our school. He told me to go there because he thought it would be important. I wondered why he said this to me, so I decided to sneak out of my class and headed straight to the old building. As soon as I entered the old building, I was staggered. There were 3 more students at my age in the building. They were trying to do this test together which I later joined in to help them. I can’t remember what kind of test it was but it was really hard. We worked as a team and helped each other to best of our abilities. Then, something really weird happened. A portal appeared and we were flying directly into it. When we went through the portal hole, I realized that I was in a completely different world. I was scared at first because I didn’t know what was happening. Everywhere I went was filled with sunshine and grass. There were mountain hills and huge trees. There were birds and all kinds of animals. The three other kids were gone and I was by myself until I spotted a school. Well, it was actually a huge hut but it appeared to be a school. Then, out of nowhere, students came out jumping and screaming with joy and happiness. I instantly knew that these kids were students. Many days passed and I found myself sitting in class room with many of these students. I quickly learned how to fly and control basically anything with my mind. I made many friends within a few days.




When I woke up, I was in an extreme happy state. I don’t know what happened from there, but in my dream, I went through the exact same portal two times. The other side of the world was amazing. There were small lakes with fresh grasses all over the land. It was like reliving my past years because I partially grew up in place where I was surrounded by mountains and wooden log houses. I also observed huge trees. I repeat, these trees aren't like any other trees you would find in a forest. All of them were like the size of a tall apartment building. These trees provided habitats for many weird looking animals that I observed. Also, anyone who wanted to fly was given the ability to fly. I was so stunned by this fact because being able to fly was always my childhood dream. Anything was possible and every child I met became my best friend. Even though we met for a day, I felt a very strong connection between them. I don't remember what happened later because there was a period of time when I left the magical world. This dream was, by far, the weirdest dream I've ever had. I also had another weird dream a year ago which I still remember. But that dream is pretty scary because I remember myself crying after I woke up.




Stay tuned for the next post!
By the way, I know the picture above is totally irrelevant to this subject, but I though my blog was plain without pictures. Cya! :)

My New Home!

Hey!
I’m back and I am very excited to be in my new home! My family and I moved into our new home just a few hours ago and I am over excited! Yay! Our home has 5 rooms-- one for my sister, me, parents, and books. I am still not familiar with the arrangements because I have been here only 2 times. We have a kitchen that smells like food and wood. We also have a balcony. It is not exactly a balcony but it’s something like that. You can see the whole view of Caracas from here. Oh god, Caracas is really beautiful, especially at night. I can even see my school’s field but I can hardly see it because it’s pretty dark outside. You can see little cars with red and orange lights moving across the road and instantaneously disappearing into the buildings. I see breezes gently pushing the side of the leaves. I can even see the sparkly words from the advertisements. Also, from up here, it looks as if the hills are covered with tiny pieces of glowing sands put together. Interestingly, there is no speck of light on the far side of the mountains. The mountains look pretty lonely without all these lights. I see green, blue, purple, red, pink, white, orange, yellow, and brown lights simultaneously sparkling in the city of Caracas. Anyway, I have school tomorrow and tomorrow will be Friday. I can’t wait. Thinking of Friday already fills my head with all sorts of different activities that I’m going to do on the weekends
J. I’m probably going to relax and refresh my mind. If I have time, I might listen to music and do my homework or I might think all sorts of things for hours. I can think of many things for good 2 hours. I think about my glasses, earth, space, junk food, bugs, purple eyes, cards, books, politics, crabs, trees, apples, colors, lizards, cockroaches, circles, cars, and the list goes on. The list of different things can go for more than hours and these things I think about are totally unrelated to each other. I mostly think about stars because they are very beautiful—especially at night. The way they glow is nothing like the city lights. They are truly different. The lights in the city are densely packed but the stars in the night sky are all separated from each other. Something about the stars just really captures my attention along with the moon. They are just both fascinating to me in every way. If I put on my glasses, I can see the stars so clearly. I can also see the dark clouds hovering on top of the city. If I find my camera, I will take a picture of this view and post it on this blog, so that way you can also see what I am seeing every night.
