I fell in Love by: Amber Guillory & Rayana Ragan

I fell in love with a boy tonight
Our hearts aglow like candlelight
He played the strings of my heart
"May we never be apart"
Before we kiss my heart goes wild
All he'll do is look and smile
Maybe he'll laugh just a little
A small, satisfied, heart-felt giggle
And with this I'm on a cloud
Though we know it's not allowed
Inside I feel the smallest fright
I fell in love with a boy tonight.

I fell in love with a man tomorrow
He soothes my every worry and sorrow
His arms are there to keep me warm
Even through the coldest storm
Knowing always what to say
The stars and moon where darkness lays
Like the sunrise he'll be the day
I never have to feel afraid
With such strength he fills my need
Through it all we can succeed
I fell in love with a boy back then
But boys grow up and boys become men.


For the past month, we have been learning about poetry. We have been analyzing and learn the different techniques of writing poetry. So about a week or two ago our teacher asked us to create a poem of our own. She told us that we could write about whatever we wanted whether it be about food or life. When my partner and I sat down at the computer we wrote about the first thing that came to to mind, love. The words flowed, our fingertips worked as fast as they could while our brains worked hard at rymthing and creating smilies. In four days we are presenting to the class our masterpiece.

last day on the island

Being on the island for 38 days, took a toll on my physical state causing me to go somewhat crazy. By the time we were finally rescued, I couldn't remember what it felt like to be around people, the only people that I was able to associate with were the few people that survived the plane crash. When I was on the island I didn't receive the proper nutrition because finding food on the island was rather difficult and some days we wouldn't eat anything at all cause we wouldn't find any food that day.

I thank the helicopter that saw our fire signal, cause I don't think we could of survived on the island for much longer. Our resources that we found on the plane after the crash were used up rather quickly cause we didn’t think of the possibility that we could be trapped on the island for a long time, which we were.

My Life after the crash

Its been about a week now since the plane crashed on this mysterious island. When we first crashed it was late at night so it was dark. The next morning when i woke up I couldn't remember where I was. I decided to take a walk around the island to check out the scenery and find out if there were any other suviors from the crash.While exploring i found my friend Catherine in a near by bush, the plane crash must of cause her to fly off and land in a bush. When i first saw Catherine the first thing i thought was "is she dead," Catherine was still knocked out from the tramatic night that had gone on the night before. I tried my best top try and wake Catherine up. After she finally awoke, she couldn't recall the night before so I informed her of the information that i knew. After explaining to her what had happened we disided to venture else where. On our hike through the island we found several other passsangers from plane 311, Ericson and Kaykin. We also found several different sources of food in which we have been consuming for the last week here these include: mangos, coconuts, tropical berries, and almonds.On our second night on the island we set up and small camp that would keep us some what warm for the night until we had more light to make a more stable living situation. Not having a change of clothes for a week has caused me to feel very dirty, I hope we find our fallen plane soon, so I can get a change of clothes.

About me

Hello my fellow bloggers!
Remove Formatting from selection

I'm Amber, I was born on March 11Th, 1994 in Redwood City, California. I am currently 15 years old. I'm a sophomore at Burlingame High school. Before going to Burlingame high, I
went to a private school for eight years at St. Matt's Catholic school in San Mateo. We had to wear uniforms every day which kind sucked. Going to St. Matt's I gained a good foundation and made life long friends that are like my brothers and sisters.


At Burlingame high I play on the volleyball team coached by Laurie Huddleson. We have only lost two games this season. We are tied for first with Mills High School. Our last game is tomorrow at San Mateo High. In the middle of the season our coach was diagnoised with breast cancer. This hurt our team emotionally, but we all said we were going to win for Huddy ( our coach). We work hard at practice and strive to become a better and closer team as a whole. Wish us luck tomorrow. Go Panthers!
