Day of Silence

by   Posted on April 15, 2011 in Uncategorized

I did the day of silence for LGBT because I support them. I feel as though no one should be discriminated against no matter what they are. I love the fact that they have the strength and courage to step out and be who they are. I also strongly disagree with the violence that’s been happening to gay people. Its unnecessary to beat up someone PERIOD, violence is never the answer, and they didn’t do anything at all to get attacked. Another reason why I did was because I have a few friends who are apart of the LGBT category and I support them no matter what.

Skills Assignment

by   Posted on April 10, 2011 in Uncategorized

1. The ability to write and speak well (skill) – One thing that is very important to me is the ability to speak well. Whenever people speak improperly, it makes them seem illiterate. Also, when I compose stories, poems, etc. I love to be creative. Most of the time my writings are indirectly connecting to my life. All in all both of these skills developed from my love of books.

2. The ability to analyze a problem to develop workable solutions (skill) – Usually when problems come up in life I like to solve them in a very different way. Majority of the people in my life may not agree, but I always get the job done. For instance, my sister and I wanted to rock out to some epic music but our ipods weren’t loud enough. So I came up with an awesome idea to use the computer speaker from downstairs. In conclusion, I’m a creative human-being that maybe misunderstood sometimes.

3. The ability to be creative and innovative in solving problems (skill) – Some ways that I am able to analyze and solve problems or situations is with computers or electronic devices. Just recently I helped my sister with her wifi connection on her ipod. Whenever problems come up, I always try to find the root of the issue. I also use this technique in daily situations. For example: If my friends were at odds with each other I would hear them out and then try to help solve the issue. Lastly, I like to evaluate problems before diving straight into them.

4. The ability to understand numbers and statistics (skill that I don’t have) – Sadly, math is not my strongest subject. For evidence I have two math classes (Algebra 1 and Math Intervention). One thing that is very complex to me is that when you’re in elementary school you correlate numbers with math and letters with English so why is there letters in Algebra. Another thing is that Math doesn’t allow creativity like English does. The reason why I choose this skill to gain was because all my life I struggled with this subject and I would just like to understand it one day. Furthermore, numbers usually give me a headache unless it’s money that I’m receiving for shopping.

I Am Poem

by   Posted on February 8, 2011 in Uncategorized

I Am

I am silly yet mature
I wonder do I mean something to you
I hear the rushing water
I see the blue and black sunset
I want to get the cute kittens off the street
I am silly yet mature

I pretend I don’t see you
I feel the lightbulb above my head
I touch the panic button
I worry about what the future brings
I cry because Grandma went to Heaven too soon
I am silly yet mature

I understand the lyrics I see
I say live for the moment
I dream about meeting the person who inspires me
I try to see your side of the story
I hope peace comes someday
I am silly yet mature

I’ve got make-up to put on

I’ve got bracelets to wear

I’ve got trains to catch

I’ve got credits to earn

I’ve got minutes to burn

I’ve got family to see

I’ve got dishes to wash

I’ve got shows to watch

I’ve got clothes to put away

I’ve got hours to sleep away

The Lady or The Tiger?

by   Posted on January 31, 2011 in Uncategorized

1) The king sat on his throne of royal state on one side of the arena.

2) Yes.

3) The princess hated the lady who had been chosen because she was jealous of her. She described the lady as lovely and beautiful. Also the princess didn’t like the lady because she saw her glancing and checking out her lover a few times.

4) The princess had raised her hand with a slight quick movement that only her lover saw.

5) The princess saw in her dreams, that her lover would open the door with the tiger behind it, which would end up with him getting killed.

6) Yes because HE exepected her to know which door was the right one.

7) No one else noticed the princess because everyone’s eyes were on her lover awaiting what would be his pick.

The kings arena to me was a huge room with a ton of chairs for the audience. His throne is seperate from the audience, it’s all the way across the room.

The kings method of administering justice was to deal with you his way. There were no choices on what would happen to you. Its only one option, and that’s to go to the kings arena.

The princess had difficulty indicating which door was right for her lover because, she would lose him either way but, she didn’t know which way she wanted to lose him.

I don’t think women ever commited crime sin. If they did, I think they would suffer the same fate. The only thing that would change is instead of a lady being behind the door, it would be a man this time.

 If I was the princess I would have told my lover to open the door with the lady behind it. I would rather see my lover happy and alive, than being dead just because I was jealous of who he would be with.

If I was the lover the lover I would have taken the door with the lady behind it. I feel as though, I wouldn’t deserve to die, I deserve to be happy.

My Ending To The Lady or The Tiger?: The princess would end leaving home because of her father’s controlling behavior. The princess would end up going to a small village, where she would meet up with her lost lover. The two would be back together forever, on the run for the rest of their lives. (Love Conquers All)

I agree and diagree. The reason why I agree is because its like the law if you break it, you pay the consequences. I disagree because the king should have a different way of handling this, it should be more consequences than just one.

Ideal Home Description

by   Posted on January 25, 2011 in Uncategorized

My ideal home would be somewhere close to a beach. I would like my house to be medium sized and it HAS to be blue. Blue is a very beautiful color along with black. So mainly the outside of the house would be blue and black. The inside of the house would have about 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a regular bathroom and a bathroom in the basement. The reason why I would like my house to be by the ocean is because, the sound of the ocean is very calm and peaceful, I thinks thats awesome.

Teenager (“Eleven”)

by   Posted on January 9, 2011 in Uncategorized

   When I wake up, there’s no difference in feeling.  Yet, yesterday I felt excitement and anxiousness.  All I could do is wait patiently for July to come.  It seemed as if all my friends could finally declare to the world “I’m a teenager!”, but I couldn’t just yet.  I know that everyone has to wait the long 365 days to finally see their birthdays again; but why did it seem like mines took 1000 years!!!  Everyone seemed to always have those extra months over me; especially those January babies.  Boy did they think they were special.  Being a summer baby isn’t all bad.  For instance: I could have a splash party or go to the amusement park and get on all the water rides!!!! 

  When I woke up and realized that today was the day I would finally get the chance to say I’m part of the teeanger club, I got all excited again.  Though I was excited, I felt nor did I look any different.  I thought I probably would have at least been average height!  Also, I thought I would be able to have more freedom like in those teen movies.  I thought about late night parties, tatoos, piercings….even the B word.  I was so wrong, getting older just meant more responsibility, none of those parties, tatoos, etc.  I never knew that movies could be so deceiving……

 Parents ruined the entire “magical” factor of being a teenager.  They expect me to do too many things,  such as wake up on my own.  What happen to them knocking on my door and saying ”Rise and Shine!”  Now its just “Get up and hurry up in the bathroom!”  Its like they want you to grow up, but when you do you’re being to grown!!!  So being a teenager puts you in a comprimising position with your parents.  They tend to forget you’re a teenager now.  Teenagers need their privacy and independance.

  I know that being a teenager now is more responsibility and your parents expect a lot more from.  They longer tell you to do your homework because they expect you to.  Also, for an example I turned out to be a very unique individual and quite frankly don’t care what society thinks about me.  Unfortunately, my parents do not feel the same way.  I want my nose peirced but my parents won’t allow me, they think it’ll be to grown.  The sad part is when I turn 16, I still will be to young.  I guess I’ll never win…..

Lastly, being a teenager is fun….sometimes.  I know that my parents mean the best but geesh can I please have room to make mistakes!!! I feel like this is the only time I get to make mistakes and if I don’t make them now; I’ll make them when I become an adult and suffer greater consequences.  Being a teenager is bitter sweet. I say this because sometimes it’s fun and sometines I wish I was 12 again.  Maybe its just me……

SAT LAP: Bullied

by   Posted on December 17, 2010 in Uncategorized

1. I thought Bullied was a really sad documentary for a number of reasons. I feel as though no one should be bullied because they’re lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. It broke my heart to see all the things that Jamie had to go through, he wasn’t hurting anyone all he wanted was to get a good education. At the end of the documentary I was happy to see that Jamie got justice.

2. I never experienced bulling like Jamie did in the documentary. I don’t see bullying happening in FLC, and I hope to not see it in the future. I wouldn’t want anyone to go through what Jamie went through.

3. Solutions for bullying:

Suspension

Detention

Expelled from School
