Greatest High School Obstacle

I have had many obstacles my last two years of high school but one to me stands out the most. The one that stands out to me is when I had to earn a 3.5 GPA to stay on the volleyball team. I knew I could do it but it took a lot of hard work. I had little room for error but with consistent focus and doing my homework everynight I was able to pull it off thankfully. I know I can do a lot better than what I am right now, I just need to put in the effort. This to me has been the greates high school obstacle, but I'm certain more will be on the way.

Well today and Priesters class Lexi and Amy almost fought but Becky and I being the good friends we are held her back. Other people that I have altercations with are making it into a bigger deal then what it is. I dislike half the girls on this campus because they love the starting stuff but sooner or later they will need to grow up because when they leave here it won't be the same. It seems like they have nothing better to do. I feel that if girls were to fight more often than there would be more respect for each other here. I'm not trying to say that fighting is a good thing but that's how a lot of people take out there anger and living here we aren't able to do that. Moving on, on Saturday my sister and I are going to get out pictures taken and give it to someone as a gift. We also got it court approved to take hosre back riding lessons. My first lesson is June 4 I think. Well this is my free blog post.

Playwrights Project Play Completion Reflection

Right now I feel disappointed in myself because I did not enter my project into the contest because I was still editing it. I feel that my play was very good, I took my time and it’s a true story. I don’t want the actors to act out my play because I’m kind of embarrassed. I’m afraid of what people might say about my play. I don’t want people to judge me if they don’t like my play. If there were time for me to enter the play I don’t think my play would win because there is no type of comedy it’s just a very direct play.

SPA Prom 2011 or Free Write

This year’s prom was not as fun as the year before. I feel this way because there was a lot of drama and almost a couple of fights. I was being pushed around but I kept my mouth shut. Lot's of girls were pretty and Latoya's dress was the best. Belinda won best hair. Tedra and Shanice won prom queen and king. Jennifer M and Marcos G won prince and princess. Next year I’m going to run for princess. Each year I wear different colors. This year I went with Jabriel and we wore Fuchsia, Gold and Black. Next year I’m going to wear blue.

Posters in the Hall

I do not think it's wrong that SPA students just post the words of Caucasian men in our halls. I say this because not many people know more famous people who have quotes that are different quotes. In my opinion I feel that more Caucasian people are more known for things more than any othe4r race in the world. That just goes to show what students are learning in history classes in today’s society. Students should know more than just Caucasian quotes because some people may think of that as racism. I myself don’t find it racism because I don’t know too many other race’s with famous off the top of my head but I’m willing to learn them.

Summary: This is a summary of Becky's blog post titled "Comment-Seeking Post". To access the full post, click here Comment-Seeking Post. Becky's blog talks about growing up as a young girl trying to become women that every young girl is soon to be. In other words, she is trying to live the grown up life which is still kind of hard. Beck says how she's having family issues, which everyone has. I give credit to her because she has stepped up to the plate and other girls haven't. That's a very hard job and a very hard part of life at her age. Paraphrase: This is a paraphrase of a section of Becky's blog post titled "Comment-Seeking Post".

Quote, Summary, or Paraphrase Paragraph

Welcome students! Today, I am going to teach you about what evidence is. Evidence is that which tends to prove or disprove something. You summarize evidence when you use quotes, and put things into your own words. To summarize you break long sentences into smaller one by using your own words. You quote evidence when you are going to use the exact same words from the internet or person. To use a quote you must put quotations around the sentence in the exact same form. You paraphrase evidence when it is a short simple section of text that you can easily put into your own words. To paraphrase you retell the ideas using your own words. To help you remember this, you should study as much as possible because it will really help.

COmment-Seeking Post

This year for prom I’m going to wear green and white. Prom will be here in no time and I have not found my dress or shoes. I tell myself I’m going to go shopping over the weekend but I procrastinate. Also, the person that usually gives me the money for my prom stuff is in Georgia. I constantly have to call my mom and dad to see if they can help me out but then at the same time I hate taking money from them because I know that they are not wealthy. I wish that I could get a job but I can’t because I’m so young. I can’t do stuff with my friends because they always get to do it before me because of my age. I’m kind of indecisive about going to prom but in the end I always pull through with it. I’m really picky, which is another reason it’s hard to find a prom dress.

Title: President Obama’s Big Announcement

To learn about Osama bin Laden’s death, I read[http://edition.cnn.com/2011/US/05/02/pakistan.bin.laden/]and learned that Osama had a reason to die. First, US troops dropped from helicopters and raided his house. Next, they had a gun fight with Osama. Then a trooper shot him in the head. Finally, his body was buried over seas. Now, I think that we America should be careful because we never know whats goning to happen to us after we have killed somone so important to Pakistan. Now that I have read/watched the news, I predict that someone will try and get revenge for Osama.One thing I predict is that someone is going to take Osama's place.I think this will happen because Osama was a "true" leaderto Pakistan. Another thing I predict is that a war will be started. I think this will happen because they have killed Osama.I hope that America is safe and we don't have a war because innocent people will die.
