'Zine
I'd never heard of a 'zine before Mr. Coleman, my language arts teacher introduced it to me. A 'zine is a non commercial "magazine" that is usually used for local purposes.
Local purposes, hmm.
Caleb and I (Caleb is a guy at my school) wanted to work together to design a 'zine, but about what? We sorted through about 112 ideas before the word "local" caught our eye.
Local foods.
Hmm, how could we turn this into a 'zine? Well, Mr. Coleman helped us out with that. He told us about multiple authors such as Barbara Kingsolver. She lived on completely locally grown foods for 1 whole year. I wonder how she survived the winter, hahaha. Anyways, this caught our attention.
What if I ate locally grown foods for one meal everyday for a week? Thats certainly no year, but for a teenager, thats a long time.
Yes, this is how we found our topic.
Perfect.
Everyday I'll blog about my interesting experiences about eating local foods. Hard? Or easy? That's what I'll find out. I'll eat local foods while Caleb does the research.
Hopefully this is A+ material.
Anyways, check this blog for updates on our interesting challenge!

The Eyes
When you look in someone's eyes, can you tell a lie without smiling?
Can you smile without laughing?
When you look at your life and you think you have seen it all, you really haven't.
But was it worth thinking about?
Can you lose it all and not cry?
Sometimes tears are like a security blanket, because when you feel you are alone in this world, tears remind you that you wouldn't have been crying if you didn't care about what you were crying about.
Sometimes, when your alone, can you not help but shiver?
At least you shiver because your not usually alone.
Now when you look at the world
This planet
Do you see wrong?
Or do you see all the things that are meant to be right?
Do you know that your life has a plan
And that when you think that your done
When you give up
Your life still has its plan.
Follow it.
Follow it 'till you've reached the end.
And when you think you've reached the end
Don't stop
