So Far This Year

So far this year has had it's ups and downs but mainly it's ups. I am staying ahead in all my work, getting on time to school, and keeping the friends I started out with. My ups would have to include my teachers, my classes, my friends. The downs would have to be some of the moods some people give off sometimes. But I don't let it get the best of me though. For reason this year, it doesn't bother me to stay after school now. I kinda enjoy it because I get to either do my work or just hang with friends. I really do like this year more than last year. I have to say just not being a freshman period is the best thing of this year. I have more fun this year. I think the laughing is whats making this school year more fun.

9/11

Back then, it was about the 3rd grade, was the day we heard about the attack. It was at the end of the day and my Principal, Ms. Narron, got on the loud speaker and told us the tragedy that had happen. I wasn't really paying attention to what she was saying because I really didn't pay attention to what she had to say over the loud speaker. When the bell had rang, everyone was talking about it. More 5th graders than the rest. I really didn't see what the fuss was about. There's something bad that happens all the time on the news and stuff, why should we react to this? But when I got home, I came to realize it was big. Bigger than the stories of people getting in fights, stealing, lying, cheating, and more bigger than suicide. This was so huge, that it was on every channel, even kid shows they stop for it. My mom was explaining it to me, in a low term cause i was little and she didn't want to worry me. At that point, I knew this was gonna last for a long time.

This has affected all of us in many ways. People lots loved ones, tragedy was everywhere, and most people didn't even really know what the cause of it was. I know that i didn't have family in that accident but we should be praying for the families that lost them, and have a great amount of respect for the firefighters and others who helped them out. My heart goes out to them. Nobody deserves to go through that.

This Year I

This Year I plan to be on top of my game. I want to be the best i can be for this year. I want to be more opened minded to things. These are my high school years and I'm going to enjoy the time i have. I was late by like a minute this year , but I'm going to try not to be late anymore. My goals include having good grades, being on time, and just having fun. So far this year has started out way better than the last year. I have a feeling this is going to be my best year yet. That is if I do the things I need to do to get things done.
