Class Overview

2005-12-12T11:20:00.000-08:00

My senior year consisted of few complex or demanding classes, but one of them were both. I took this course thinking that it would be a breeze and an easy A, boy was I wrong. This class not only taught me things about writing and my own personal style but it also challenged me to do better. This course challenged me to reach higher and achieve more. It allowed me to advance my skills and through what I learned and am still learning I will always remember to apply the tips and key points offered to me by my instructor. Thanks a bunch!

Blogging

2005-12-12T11:15:00.000-08:00

This semester my teacher used blogging as one of our class assignments. I really liked the idea of an online personal journal. I thought that the fact of having my own website for my personal use would be really cool. I thought that my page would give a lot of people a little insight of teen life. Yeah I kind of slacked a bit by not providing the "day by day" accounts that I promised in the beginning but hey we're only humans.

Decisions

2005-12-12T11:06:00.000-08:00

Oh my goodness. Today I was in class and I heard the most fearful thing. My friend wants to make a major life decision, why, because she feels that she doesn't fit in with the rest of our peers. I totally feel really bad now because I feel that she is only making that influence because of me. Before we became as close as we are today the thought of something like that would have never crossed her mind. Now that she has made such a statement I feel like I am a negative influence in her life and I don't want her to ruin hers just to feel like she belongs.

Why

2005-12-11T16:24:00.000-08:00

Okay, so like my school has this newspaper right. Well this month they were doing a special section on poetry written by fellow peers in our school. I had wrote this beautiful poem, a rendition of "Where I'm From", and my school's editor thought that my poem was to derogatory because of one stinking word. So now my totally heart felt poem can't ever grace the pages of the paper.

Technology in School

2005-11-27T10:19:00.000-08:00

More and more we see technology used in the school atmosphere. Now days teachers use computers for power-points, students use them for presentations, internet is used for class assignments, and television channels are used for school publication and access. I think that technology being used in schools is a great thing. It offers many opportunities for students to learn more about the world around them and really get great information. It allows more public access to things that may be far away and will never get to actually get to experience. This is most definitely and advancement in education.

Poetry Response

2005-10-25T11:12:00.000-07:00

I Am by: Nakkita Tanzana
I choose to write about this poem because we had just wrote a "I am" in one of my classes at school. My teacher had gave the class a structure of how, I presumed, it supposed to go; then when I read Nakkita's poem I realized that there is no standard why for this poem.
Unlovable by: English Indian
I like this poem because I believe that we all feel this way deep inside we we're all alone.
My Memory by: becki watson
This poem was right to the point and let you know that becki has pleasant memories.

Well

It has just been made know that a young man had been bloging for some time now about how he would kill a someone. Detectives didn't find out about the thoughts of the man until it actually came true one sad evening.
It was the night of a young woman's Homecoming, a night that a many of teens anticipate. She was on her way to her high school's dance when some where along the way she encountered the same male that has been planning this event for a very long time. Her evening soon came to a tragic end when the male initiated his operation.
While executing his plan, the gentleman brutally murdered this young woman and burned her lifeless body inside of her car.
This whole event could have been avoided if only someone would have listened...

After previewing the short story "Beautiful/Ugly" written by Chase Wittemore I decided I had to blog about it. The story really had me upset at first because I had read about three paragraphs of boredom. It started off talking abut some lady that that was a figure skater and was in a performance. The gentlemen in the stands was a fan of the lady. As he began had show he awarded her with appraisal and commented her movements. Then out of nowhere the narrator flipped the script. He began to talk about how vulgar the dancer was. He then began to say that she was pathetic and that she was degrading herself he said that he didn't understand way she would want to violate her temple in such a manner. Needless to say the man was quickly outraged and really tripping especially when the lady jumped in the air completing a Russian; high jump into the air with legs brought straight up in the air. Suddenly the man reached down into his bag and pulled out his gun. As she kneeled down to end with her head down he rose up pointed his gun and shot her in the back of her head. Then after her lifeless body lied in center rink he hoped over that arena wall and shot her again. Oh my goodness. It was really worth the time I took to read the story and I am glad that I did.

This is crazy

I was just talking about the responsibilities of a senior with some of my fellow. MAN!!! I really don't believe that the seniors for the class of 2006 have realized that everything in life getting ready to change. We will no longer be under mommy's or daddy's wing, you will have to fly on your own. Your destination is in your own hands nobody can control your flight. You want to assure a safe landing thus you don't want to hit any turbulance along the way. you don't want anything or anyone to get in you way and stop you from reaching your goal. It is time that we buckled down and got down to bisness not letting anything stop us.

WHAT!!!!

Day 1

2005-09-14T11:28:00.000-07:00

This has had to be one of the worst weeks of my life! I walked into school on Monday and everyone had something to say about me, NaNa. Why everyone seams as if they are out to ruin me is appalling to me. What have I ever done to anyone to deserve this much judgment and criticism from those who are supposed to be my friends my peers. How can they all seem to hate me this much without me ever causing any harm to ay of them. Why can't they see how much their actions are killing every ounce and being of my soul. What, should I strive for acceptance even knowing that that will only give them more to talk about. How can people who are supposed to be your friends persecute and turn on you faster than any enemy that you have ever had to face. How can a person smile in your face claiming to be your bf then bite you in the back. I have never hated school in all of my 12 years, from pre-k to my 11th year, until now. I just hope I have enough strength to continue. Til Tomorrow...

So Many Questions

2005-09-12T11:33:00.000-07:00

How can so many have so much faith in one person
Yet the person doubts themself every step of the way
How can you overcome a situation
You try everyday only for it to come back on you
Just to slap you in the face
You find a mental place to hide it all
Only for someone to pry it open
And make you relive every painful memory
What's the point of trying if all your efforts fail
How can one be so strong yet so weak
Constantly climbing only to be pushed back down
When will I ever reach the top
Maybe I never will
If I never will, then why should I continue to climb
How can someone be so certain that everything will be okay
When deep down you know, it will never go away
What is the purpose of this thing called life
Is it a constant punishment and a constant fight
How long does it take before all of the fight runs out
Does pain not know of age

Rules For Blogging

2005-09-09T10:59:00.000-07:00

When you blog there are many rules that you must follow when you are blogging. You want to always remain anonymous because it would be kind of Weird if someone was to try and find you. They may be trying to stalk you are hurt to hurt you. Another rule would be to be appropriate meanig that you never know who will look at your blog. You should make sure that if you are to address a "sore topic" that you make discrete inferences to the topic. If you give a comment on someone's blog then you should be polite about it because you wouldn't want anyone to down you or your blog. Also you don't want to publish something that isn't your best so you want to make sure that you always edit and use spell check. Til Tomorrow...
