Hello Friends,
The hometown hero passed away in a car accident tuesday morning. Jessika Baier, a graduate of my high school, a great role model and singer, a DJ,an American Idol auditionee, and friend to many will be greatly missed. She touched the lives of many, not only here in Center but Jackson and even the whole state of Michigan. She was a beautiful woman and a great person. As a singer, I have been greatly effected by her death. She did so much for the music programs in Center and Jackson. My prayers are with her family. Rest in Peace now Jessika. You are missed.

Doing Something Good
Hey guys,
How are you all? I really hope everybody has had a great kickoff to the holiday season. I just wanted to share a little something with you.
During this past summer I lost a pet, my rabbit Eadbhard Andreas. My brother was babysitting him while I was in Pennsylvania and somehow he disappeared. I still don't know what happened to him but I think my brother may know more than he has told me. Anyway, after that happened I really wanted another rabbit because they are such great pets and I really missed Eadbhard. My oldest brother goes to the Hillsdale auctions many Saturdays. He informed me that they auctioned rabbits and other animals there. My dad, brother, and I went to the auction to find me a new friend. We walked around the many cages and one special little rabbit caught my eye. It was in a cage with three other young rabbits. We kept looking but I had my heart set on that young rabbit. It looked just like Eadbhard. When it came time for the auction there was a family of four and my brother both bidding. The winner had to pay the winning price for each rabbit. My brother stopped at $4.50 and the family won. I teared up because I wanted that rabbit so badly. They left to go turn in their ticket to get the rabbits. When they came back to the barn, my father, bless his heart, asked the family if he could buy the rabbit I had wanted. There were 3 others so I thought maybe we'd have a chance at getting it. The father lifted one of the young girls so that she could see if she would let us have it. That sweet young girl said yes and my dad gave them $5. That wonderful family made my day, and warmed my heart with something so small but so meaningful. The whole day I had been thinking what I would name it, I figured that it would be a male. I found out that it was female. The mother of the family reminded me a little of a wonderful role model of mine. I decided to name my baby rabbit Orla Rosalynn in their honor. Every time I hold her, I think of those wonderful people who did something so kind for me.
This morning my mother and I went shopping to get some black Friday deals. We went to BestBuy first to pick up an Xbox 360 Elite for my brother to give to his son for Christmas. We got lucky with quick moving lines. After we left Bestbuy we went to Menards. Menards was absolutely packed and it was hard to find the things I needed to get. I gave up and got in line to check out with the few things we did have. One of the toys I wanted to get for my young nephew was in the cart of a lady a few isles away. One again it was dad to the rescue, he asked the woman where she had found the toy. She told us so we ran and found it, along with everything else I needed. Luckily the lines at Menards were moving very slowly. Walking back to my mom in line, a lady asked me where I had found that one toy. I told her and she said "oh ok" and seemed very bummed because she couldn't go get it. About five minutes later I felt like there was something I really needed to do. I decided I wouldn't feel right if I didn't help that dear lady. Without her knowledge, nor my mother and father's, I ran back to the toys and got that one toy. I ran back and handed the toy to her, with the young child about my nephew's age sitting there. He was young so he won't remember. The woman was very grateful and asked to shake my hand. She said her and another lady were just talking about nice people. I was delighted that I was able to brighten somebody's day, even just for a little while. It made me feel like a great person.
Both these things have happened to me, I have seen both sides of the good karma. Giving gifts, lending a hand, and all other good deeds feel good not only for those who receive, but for those who give as well. This holiday season and all seasons to come, keep this in mind and try to help somebody, even if it's something little. I hope that this has touched you in a way that will help the world be a kinder place.
With much love and blessings,

Europe 7-5-09 to 7-10-09
Hey Guys,
Sorry, but unfortunately I didn't ever write in my journal for these last days of my trip. And by now I've forgotten many of the fine details. I'd like to just give some interesting details of these days as best as i can remember, not in any particular order though.
-Eiffel Tower and pickpockets, which I didn't care for either, It was expensive and scary.
-The Louvre, Very Interesting and a great environment.
-Notre Dame Cathedral, Beautiful place, beautiful architecture.
-Cheese and Clog Making in the Netherlands, family owned with a cute son ;)
-Expensive rich people hotels, perfect!
-Anne Frank house/hideaway, very historical, wish my credit card would've worked.
-Belgian Chocolate, yum yum, but watch the intake.
-Belgian War museum and Memorial.
-A canal boat tour in Amsterdam, great scenery for pictures.
-Diamond Factory Tour in Holland, sorry but the diamonds were a bit expensive to buy.
-Getting the last gifts for nieces and nephews at the airport in Rotterdam.
-Dreaded airplane ride home, which I made it through safely. Good food though.
Alright Guys, I'm gonna get yelled at shortly to go to bed. Hope all this info is as interesting to you as it is to me. Check out my travel videos on www.youtube.com/tkdgurl12 and pictures on www.teresarae2012.shutterfly.com.

Europe 7-4-09
Today we woke up early on the French Shore. We got Stuff together and got off the boat. We ate breakfast down the street from the ferry port. After breakfast we drove for awhile to Normandy Beach area. We went to a French museum about WWII and watched a couple of movies about D-day, in which I nearly fell asleep. We shopped in the gift store and ate lunch at the museum and went on our way to Utah Beach area where there were German Bunkers. We then traveled to Omaha Beach and most of us picked up some sand. We got back on the bus and went to the American Cemetery. We had a small ceremony for the 4th of July and honoring our soldiers. It was sad but made me proud of my country. We walked around awhile and got back on our coach to go back to our hotel. We ate dinner though I can't remember where and stayed at the hotel.
Europe 7-3-09
Today was our last day at UKSA. We got up and ate breakfast, had another hour of free time, and went to our next activities. I didn't participate today though because I was still feeling dizzy and quite Tired. The rest of the delegation besides Paige, who was injured and Sarah, who was sick, did more dingy sailing and raft building. The injured went to lunch with the others and then back to our relaxing spot. I had a hard time sitting still though, so I went for various walks and bought lots of ice cream throughout the day at the store. One time on the way back from the shop I saw the raft builders. Two of them were doing good, one okay, and the last was practically sinking. After they were done we all ate dinner together. We waited awhile for a boat to take us to Portsmouth. We waited more a Portsmouth for our overnight ferry. It was huge, It reminded me of a cruise ship. It had tiny rooms and we had four in ours but I managed to fall asleep.
Europe 7-2-09
We woke up this morning and ate breakfast. We had an hour of free time after breakfast before we had to meet up for the day's activities. I went to the UKSA shop during free time and ran around trying to find stuff to do. Finally it was time to meet out instructors and split off into groups. My group got to go windsurfing first. We did balance exercises and games first. We did a gladiator thing on the boards in which I only won once. Then we put our boards together and ran across them all. I made it! Then the windsurfing part. It was hard at times to keep balance but I kept it long enough to get pulled pretty far out. I was able to swim back though. It was a fun challenge. We took a break for lunch which was pretty good, and I got a break from my wetsuit. My group's afternoon activity was dingy sailing. It was a lot of fun and pretty easy. I steered and Catherine controlled the sail. At one point we all lined up like duckies. The only bad part was getting hit with the mast or boom. It hit me a few times and pretty hard one time when we were first putting it up. After sailing we changed out of our wetsuits and had dinner. In the middle of dinner I got really dizzy. I was a little worried because I had remembered getting hit earlier and told my dad. He told my mom, who insisted on me going to the hospital. We went to St. Mary's and got checked out, but I was okay, just a little embarrassed but Meghan kept me laughing. I went back to UKSA and chilled in the cyber cafe until bedtime.
Europe 7-1-09
Today we got up and went back into London. We listened to a former member of Parliament. His name was Patrick I think but I don't remember his surname. Anyway, he talked to us about how Parliament works. He made it interesting with small jokes and we got to ask any questions. After this we went to Winston Churchill's museum and Cabinet War Rooms. It was interesting but we missed a lot of it rushing for lunch. We walked across the street to the park and ate our lunch. After this we went driving for awhile and got on a ferry to the Isle of Wight. It was a pretty quick ride though. Once we got to the Isle, we took a floating bridge across the bay to get to the United Kingdom Sailing Academy. We walked up tons of hills to get to the UKSA and where we were staying. We ate dinner at the UKSA and had an introduction to the next day at UKSA. Then it was time to rest up for the next day's adventures.
Europe 6-30-09
Today we spent a pretty great day in London. We woke up this morning and had breakfast at the hotel. After we left the hotel we went to see a lot of sights. We picked up a lady who gave us a tour of the town. She took us into St. Paul's Cathedral, which was very pretty. We ate lunch and then went to the Tower of London, where a lot of torturing took place long ago. I got a couple of books there and an ice cream cone before we left. After that we took a small boat tour on the Thames River. We then walked to dinner where we had a great dinner. Then we got about an hour of free time to shop. I got a T-shirt for my boyfriend and a small teddy bear for me. Then we went to watch "Blood Brothers" and I cried in the end but I really enjoyed it. We got back to the Hotel around midnight and I took a shower and hit the hay.

Europe 6-29-09
We got up this morning and had a continental type breakfast. We went back to Warwick to have some free time before it was opened to the public. We went around the Castle and the wax figures were so real looking, they extremely scared me. I decided to go to the dungeon attraction with Sterling, Jermaine, and Chenita. There were two other people also, who were from California. "Fred" from "Flinstoneville" led the way and was usually used for the example. It really was scary though, and me and Sterling were screaming the whole time like little girls. After that we had a small lunch at the castle, did last minute souvenir shopping, and left. We drove on the bus for another long trip to London. Once we arrived we went on the London Eye. There were beautiful sights of the whole city that we saw while we were on it. Everything was so beautiful at the top. We got our picture taken while we were still on the pod, but it was too expensive to buy. I thought it was really fun. We had dinner sometime. I really love London, it is so big and exciting. We went back to our hotel outside of the main parts of London, but it still took like an hour to get there. Before I went to bed I took a shower and hung up the clothes I had just cleaned to dry. It took them like almost three days to dry. I stayed in a couch bed but it was actually very comfortable and I had a good night's sleep.
Europe 6-28-09
Today we got up and ate breakfast at the hostel. I didn't like the hostel because it was scary to me. After breakfast we went to the castle for the Full On Experience. I wasn't very scared going down the wall, just really excited. It was a great adrenaline rush. After leaving the castle we traveled for a while to England. We stopped at a rest stop, where I got some great chocolate. We had lunch sometime but I really can't remember. I think then we went to Warwick Castle and trained in sword fighting, archery, and something else which I forgot what it was called. We had dinner at the castle, which consisted of chicken and jacket potatoes. After dinner we watched them fire a flaming ball with I think the worlds largest trebuchet. It was very neat but my camera died so I'll have to remember in my mind. We went to a hotel nearby and went to bed.
Europe 6-27-09
Today we woke up super early so we could eat breakfast and get to the ferry. I finished packing my bag quickly and ate a small breakfast and then it was off to the ferry. We spent quite a while on it, like 3 hours. I slept most of the time, listened to my MP3 player, and got on the Internet. We got to Wales and ate lunch. At the place we ate, we took pictures of the cliffs, lighthouse, and ocean. Then we got on the bus and had a small history lesson at an ancient burial site. We also stopped at the train station with the longest name. We went to the hostel and ate dinner, then went to Full On where we broke a board. I have done breaking before but it was my first hand break. We then went back to the hostel.
Europe 6-26-09
We got to Dublin last night and had a great dinner. We stayed at IMI. This morning we had a small breakfast and then went into the city for a tour and shopping! We drove around the city and saw some famous sites. After the tour we walked to the statue of Molly Malone. They asked if anybody knew the song and since I did I almost got forced to sing. I still have the song stuck in my head. So then we went shopping in the city. Our group had a slight argument about where to go but when we finally agreed we all got something that we really wanted. We went back to the hotel and the rest of the delegation ate. I met my cousin and ate with them. I had a great and memorable day in Ireland.
Europe 6-25-09
We woke up this morning to another wonderful breakfast. We had the same thing as yesterday. I think I liked the bacon best. We then said goodbye to our homestay host and went out to wait for the bus at 7:45. We waiteed and waited and waited until it finally came around 8. We drove for about an hour, but I was sleeping. We went on a boat tour to the island where we would get on a jaunty cart. A few people had allergies to the horses but I really enjoyed the ride. Our driver stopped and Echo Lake, and when he yelled we found out why that is it's name. After the ride many of us got ice cream and now we are on our way to Dublin.
Europe 6-24-09
Hey Guys,
Today was the most wonderful and exciting day. We started the day with a great breakfast from our host. I consisted of eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, juice, cereal, and yogurt. Some of the girls didn't care much for it, especially the meats, however I ate all of my food. About 15 minutes after breakfast we headed for the bus with our day packs on our backs. We picked up the rest of the delegation from their home stays and went on our way to cut peat. They've had wonderful weather here so the bog was rather dry, which was nice to keep us from getting muddy. After going to the bog we went to do community service with some of the local teens. It was nice to talk to them while we were working and very interesting playing some of their common games. We left to eat lunch at the beach and then built a fire structure for the night's ceili and the beach for St. Johns Day. We were going to take a hike but instead we went up to an old fort and took lots of pictures. It was neat to see the structures. Oh, and while we were building the fire I got hit by a tree right above my eye, leaving a pitiful bump, bruise, and small scrape. Then it was off to the GAA to play Gaelic Football, which was very fun and painful. It hit my foot wrong on the ball which really hurt my ankle, but I was still able to make a goal and almost another, both at the sidelines. We did a scavenger hunt and then went to dinner. After that we went to the Ceili and learn to dance Irish style, where I got hurt again. It was a kind of a painful day but very exciting and well worth it.

Europe June 23, 2009
Hey Guys,
Throughout my European Vacation, I have been writing in a journal. So when I get a chance I'm going to post what I write. I have been having a great time here. I REALLY enjoyed Ireland and missed it the second we left. But it's okay because I like England and have the rest of the countries to look forward to and I know I will be returning to Ireland someday. So here's what I wrote in my Journal on 6-23-09.
Day 1 of My Journey
Today was mainly just full of travel. We left the Detroit Airport to Newark on the smallest plane I have ever been on. We were all a bit nervous that delays would cause us to miss our connection flight from Newark to Shannon, but luckily the Shannon flight was also delayed. The plane ride was a bit long, but free entertainment and good food helped that. The view from the plane was amazing at times. When we landed in Shannon, it didn't feel like we were in a different country but at the same time I was really excited. From the airport we went to Bunratty Castle. The history of the area was very interesting to hear from our tour guide. We walked around a bit on our own and I bought my very first souvenirs of an already great trip. From Bunratty we traveled another four hours or so to Cahersiveen. We saw great views of mountains, the Irish Sea, and the towns. I think we all fell asleep though for a while as we were worn out from the trip. At one point I woke up and the whole bus was asleep, heads bobbing and all. Once we reached Cahersiveen we had a quick history and language lesson. The only word I remember is Failte, which means welcome. We ate dinner and then went to our homestay guest houses. The lady was maybe a little short tempered, but very nice to us. I really appreciate the great welcome we have received here in Ireland. It has been a great day.
Love,
Teresa Rae

Update of Life
Hey Guys,
Just a random update of life. I haven't blogged in quite a while. So, I'm leaving for Europe in about 4 days now. I'm so excited, just a little nervous for the plane ride. I've been on planes to and from Florida twice but that's like only 3 hours or so. The flight from Newark, NJ to Ireland is more like ten hours plus two hours from Detroit to NJ, and it's over the ocean. So I'm just praying for safe travels. But I'm hoping for great memories, especially getting to meet family in Ireland. Also going to England, France, Wales, Belgium, and the Netherlands. It's definately the chance of a lifetime. Of course, being the baby of the family, I get quite spoiled, adn it's obvious my sibs are all jealous. But hey I can't really help it. None of them have ever gotten to travel like this so it's really neat. I feel like I keep repeating myself and skipping all over the place, but I promise I'm not on drugs. Anyway, hopefully this trip opens up many more opportunities for the rest of my life, preferably helping to get me a singing career. Who knows?
Well, as far as the rest of life, I've been doing really well. I now have the most amazing BF ever. Hi Kyle by the way! And so school's out now. I got my grades back and they were very upsetting to me. Don't laugh, but a mistake by a teacher caused my GPA to go down to a 3.929 which really upset me. I've had a 4.0 since 5th grade so I had a fit. But I've contacted the school and they are trying to work it out. Hopefully It get fixed. I've just been packing for Europe and preparing for everything. Once again, so exciting! Hi to all my friends and I hope all is well.
Love you all,
Teresa Rae

Production Annie 2009
Hello Friends,
This year our school put on the musical production of Annie. It has been a lot of hard work but is definatly paying off. I have the role of Cecille (a servant), a hobo, and a city person. We've worked hard and long for the past 3 months to make it possible. Annie (Jenifer H.) is so darn cute and sweet and just a joy to work with. We've all made many new friends and have grown together as a family. So, yesterday was show #1! It was a huge sucess, sold out for the first time since we started in 2007. We recieved many laughs and a standing ovation. I would like to say thank you to the cast, crew, and pit, as well as the parents and other adults that have helped. Without all these people it wouldn't be possible. One last thank you to our directors, Mr. Micheel-Mays and Ms. Brian, and all of our fans and supporters. It has been a great journey.
With Love Always,
Teresa Rae

We've all made many new friends and have grown together as a family. So, yesterday was show #1! It was a huge sucess, sold out for the first time since we started in 2007. We recieved many laughs and a standing ovation. I would like to say thank you to the cast, crew, and pit, as well as the parents and other adults that have helped. Without all these people it wouldn't be possible. One last thank you to our directors, Mr. Micheel-Mays and Ms. Brian, and all of our fans and supporters. It has been a great journey.
With Love Always,
Teresa Rae

America
Hey all,
America has a great potential to be restored by Obama. It shows in this song.

Hello Friends
Hey all,
I know this is my third blog tonight. Just wanted to let you all know my current news. First of all, I posted 2 Journal to You entries tonight. They are things I randomly put in my journal. There will probably be more as time goes on. Just curious, does anybody ever even read my blogs? So, Everything has been alright in my life lately. I am already getting busy with the school production of Annie. I have rehearsals almost everyday. I KNOW I wasn't this busy last year at this time. But, I did get a better part! I love musical season. I've also been spending more time with friends. I'm sooo busy. And of course I know that I am a terrible blogger. It isn't so easy. And it doesn't help that I'm always tired when I decide to post one. So, I wanted to let you know that I've really been struggling with my mind about music. It isn't very convincing when you hope and wish and dream of a great musical career for over three years and nothing comes to you. I do love to sing and act and play music been I have been very discouraged. I sure won't give up quite yet but I'm getting close. I have the opportunity to be in an honors band but I don't care about that as much as I would if it were an honors CHOIR. So, maybe if nothing comes my way by the end of high school I'll just give up and search for a different career. Unfortunatly music is my only passion though. So enough about that. I hope all of you "fans" are doing well. My brother is awesome. He is like the only employee at his work to ever get 100% during a listen-in. He works with people to get them out of debt. He says he just loads them with niceness, even if they are angry, and they quickly calm down. Why can't he be like that to me. Well, like I said, I'm very tired and my blogging is horrible so I will update you all later. Luv ya's.
Love Teresa
