Change

CHANGE


What do I think that change means?
I think that change is something that takes time to accomplish and you have to really want to change to make the change occur and if you don’t try hard the change will never come to happen.
In my eyes I think that people when they want to change it is because they want to get better at something or change a bad habit or something like that and they want to fix it to better themselves in one way or another.
One example for change is when I went into foster care they wanted me to change my bad habits that I had.
For example smoking pot, drinking alcohol, doing pills, staying out late past curfew, not coming home for days or weeks at a time and not going to school.
The things that I have changed so far are that I go to school, I don’t smoke pot no more, I don’t drink anymore, I don’t sneak out, and I don’t stay out past curfew , and I come home when I am supposed to, so pretty much I have changed all the things the state wanted me to do when I got into foster care two and a half years ago.
Because of the changes that I have made I am know living with my grandma and I am out of a normal foster home and live with my family which I have been trying to get to do for two and a half years and thanks to my change I am now back home.

Fishing

I went to Montana a few years back to see my grandpa that I have not seen for a few years, to go fishing, and hunting, with him for a few weeks.
When I was out there I went fishing and hunting several times during those two weeks, one of the lakes we went to was called canyon ferry.
When we went fishing there we would go out probably about five in the morning, and would stay out there tell about two in the afternoon.
We usually caught a lot of fish when we went out.
The first time I ever went out on the lake I caught one four pound rainbow trout, and one three and a half rainbow trout.
My grandpa caught one walleye.
The four and a half pound trout that we caught we put it on the medal stringer and threw it outside the boat and forgot about it and took off and the medal stringer ended up breaking and we lost the fish.
The other two fish we took home and cooked them and ate them later that day.
Some other places we went were up in Harlowton in eastern Montana about two hours away from my grandpas house.
We went up to a reservoir that was up there and a couple of creeks, and rivers that were up there and we usually always caught something.
The fish that we caught were usually only brook trout, rainbow trout, and sometimes browns and cutthroats if we were lucky.
We went out and shot gophers usually every day early in the morning when we woke up which was usually between five and six every day………..
