Please feel free to blog on your topic. Try to not be superficial. I do not want to hear a description of your weekend or your plans for this weekend. I want you to blog about something which enables us to perceive who you are as a person.
5th For my free bog today I will write about music. I know it is always a topic that is written about, but I think that music influences everyone. For me, music lets me express how I feel. I don't play an instrument, but certain music or songs reflect how I feel at the moment. We as people can relate to each other through music, because we all experience the same type of things. I also think that music influences me to feel a certain way. The artist can express how they feel and I can understand the person through their music. I suppose that you can in someways perceive a person through the music they listen to. People can connect through the music they listen too. I just think that music is the best way for you to get your point across on how you are feeling.
hmm...I really don't know what I'm going to do with my life. Yes, I know, I'm practically 16 [march 31 :)] and I'm worrying about this. I see all my classmates doing well, and succeeding, I know I'm being repetitive, I just don't see myself making it in life. All the things around me bring me down. I really like music, so maybe I could be a disc jockey because I'm really outgoing, but I wish I could be like a pilot or a doctor, just everytime I have a good grade it drops and that pisses me off. I believe school isn't for everyone, and I'm in that category. I don't want to come off as lazy, I just think we're young once and everyone should take a break to find who they are as a teen. Not completely, I just want to go in the right direction. Soo, maybe my life after highschool i'll be a drifter who knows. I just don't want to be stuck in one place. I think the point of my blog is i need to become more incontroll and not let things get to me. I have awhile to think things through, i just need a little guidance, plus, dont let people take away your dreams, no one can..what did you want to be when you were little?
well i am a good snowboarder i feel. I really like to go up to alpine and just hang out with my friends. i snowboard with Andrew Hatfield mostly. I also like to play air soft i try to play at least once a week with my friend hunter. I find air soft fun because it gets your adrenaline going and it a fast pace game you can play with your buddy's. The only down side to air soft is that it leave some pretty good welts after you play a game or two. Those go away after a couple of days though so its not that bad. i love to ride the roller coasters at cedar point. my favorite ride i think is the millennium. I mean really i think as me just being a adrenaline junky.
I think for my free blog i will also talk about music. It seems like a good topic to write about. Music influences me and everyone that listens to it. i dont play a instrument but i love to sing. The music that i listne too often shows how i am feeling that day. Everyone likes different types of music. I mostly like all kinds of music. People can relate wtih eachother through music, because everyone likes music. Everyone listens to different kinds of music.
I'm going to write about how I have been feeling with my sezuires. Well I hadn't had any sezuire activity in a while and hopefully it stays that way. It better stay that way so I can stop missing school so much. Also, I just turn sixteen and I still don't have my learners permit because of these sezuires. I didn't play hockey for weeks because of it and I felt miserible. Hopefully, I will be six months sezuire free. I want to feel free to do the things that I want to do. Katherine Walsh 6th hour
I see myself as a proffecional ping pong player. I would love to be able to get a scollarship doing this as my profession. If I could play ping pong all day long I would be so freaking happy, you have no idea. You know how a fat kid likes cake; thats how much I enjoy ping pong. Give me a paddle, a ball, and some mini shorts, and i'll be on my way. Ping pong is my life, and im going to die playing this sport. I am going to become the best of the best, and when i win it all i'm going to go to disney land.
the other day i rode on a speed bike. it was a yamaha r6, the model below an r1. eventhough i was riding on the back it still was the sweetest thing ever. the bike was unbelievably fast. i dont wana say any speeds to get my self in trouble, but we went like 120. im pretty sure i want one more than a new car now. the problem with getting a bike at a young age is that, eventhough the bike itself is relitively cheap, the insurance is through the roof. if you could foot the bill id definatly say its worth it.
Mr. Kay, I think that childhood is something very important to all of us. It is the area of our lives when our personalities are shaped amongst plenty other big aspects in our lives. That is why I like to consider myself a very nostalgic person. I like to watch television shows from when I was a small child. I like to watch movies that where my favorite eight years ago. I like to listen to music that embraces or has something happy like my childhood or something that just reminds me of my childhood. I maybe have to much longing for the good old day, but I like living in my childhood for years. I don't really want to care about what I need to do in the future. I would much rather care about something in my past. I'm really like my childhood, when everything was simple, fun, and perfect and that why I embrace it.
For my free blog I will be talking about grades. Grades in highschool are important because they determine whether or not you get into a good college. In my family, grades have always come first. My parents have always wanted me to do my best so that I can have a good successful life. I want to try my best so that I can have a great life and not have to worry about money issues. The only way I will be able to achieve this is by keeping my mind on my grades. I need a better habit of studying and stay concentrated. I think I will be able to achieve this because so far my grades have been pretty good.
I was watching nascar for a short amount of time yesterday. It got pretty old after the 200th lap. I dont understand how it can be called a sport when driving around a track 500 times is all that happens. How can you be a die hard nascar fan? How can one get so into a car driving in circles and occasionally making a pit stop? Hell anyone can drive a car around a track, if they dont get it the first lap around, they have about 499 laps to get it right. Why is it called a sport? How is sitting in a car physical activity?
Mr.Kay, "Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you."-Nathaniel Hawthorne. I read this quote today, and it made me think about life. I thought about they way we all search for things. We look for happiness for love, and for success. We dont live in the moment, we strive to make the future better. But, what if there isnt a future. What if all we had was today? then, all that time and effort we put in just goes down the drain. The part about happiness also made me think about letting life happen to you. People say you have to live your life, not just let it happen. But, maybe letting it happen IS the best way to go. Maybe we should all stop obsessing over succcess, and just let things go. Becasue if it's mant to be, then it's ment to be!
Call of duty 4 is so much better than call of duty 5. In call of duty 4 there are way better guns to use. I am also better at COD4 than i am and COD5 but that doesn' matter. COD5 has stupid gun that ae not powerful at all. The best gun in COD5 to me would be the type 100, or the MP40. The best gun in COD4 to me would be the MP5 with red dot. If your playing hardcore, then i would suggest using the M40 Sniper with over kill and use the MP5. Also put on exrteme conditioning and fragx3. I do really good with these cobinations so try it cuz im boss at COD4. Zack Ruffin
For my free blog I will be writing about how important my friendships are to me. You see, I'm having a little trouble with one of my friendships at the moment. For the past two days, I have been talking to one of my good friends. He's so funny. It's like he has two personalities, at school he makes fun of me in a nice way. And when he's at home, he's really sweet and cares about my borring life. But today, I felt that he was avoiding me. I texted him asking what was wrong, I didn't get an answer. The next time I texted him, I got a message back from his phone. One of his friends texted me on his phone and said who they were and that I should leave him alone. I couldn't think of why he'd say that. There wasn't any hints that he was mad at me. I replied. Later I found out that he didn't say that, the other person did. When I tried to apologize, his friend told me to go away. I don't know what to do. He won't talk to me, look at me, text me back, or anything. I don't know why his friend doesnt want me talking to him. But Im not going to say anything mean to them because those are his friends, and I just want him to know that I am sorry for whatever I did to make him mad. And that I'm not going to be mean to his friends because I don't want him to be mad at me. I hope we can solve this problem, especially because his birthday is coming up, in which I'm still getting him a present no matter what. I'm so sorry. I hope they forgive me.
Sports have played a huge part in my life. I have made sports the focus point in my life for the longest time. At first people said that sports are supposed to teach you life lessons. Then it turned more into a big competition. This is one of the reasons I played so many sports at a young age. My dad had to force me to play soccer and into many other sports. At first I didn't think I would be good. However, I then found out that sports was my calling. I am a very athetically fit person and I enjoy to exercise. Running around getting a good workout in really helps me stay healthy. When I was young I tried nearly every sport. Finally I narrowed it down. Up until 9th grade I have played soccer, basketball, I wrestled, and I did cross country. This year for my sophomore year I have only played soccer. This is the only sport for me because I love it. Along the way this year I have disappointed many people including my past coaches and players. Many people view me differently because I quit these sports. I hope to pursue a career in soccer and get through college on a scholarship.
Well I am getting really excited. In about 3 weeks or a little less my brother is coming home from Iraq. He is my hero. It sucks that I don't get to call him everyday. I miss him so much, my whole misses him. He is in the Air Force, he drive cars. So when he gets out he can be a bus driver. My older brother is my insparation to strive to be in the military. He has tought me so much. He has a 11 month son. He was gone for the last 6 months. So he almost all of my nephews firsts. But he has got to see him on the web cam. I that is why I like living in the world today. Back when WWII happen all you could send is letters. You could percive me as a person who loves her family!!!
I am a computer genus and grease monkey. Im a musician and loving. I have had an interest in computers since I was about 10. My uncle has taught me most of what I know today. I have also built my own dunebuggy with my dad. We worked on rebuilding an engine and he taught me the ins and outs of being a mechanic. I really enjoyed that time I had to share with my dad, learning along the way. I have been interested in music since I can remember. I started playing the Saxophone in 6th grade; I still play it in Lakeland's Wind Ensemble class today. Music Is a way I can express myself, because my voice isnt very good. I love dogs; my dogs name is Coco and she is one of the most important things to me.
My mom once said to me "so what do you want to be when you grow up?" You know no matter what someone tells me i just dont think school is for me. No matter what i do i just keep falling and falling into the pit of life and i cant get out. I some times feel like like i just wasnt ment to be here. No matter what i do i cant nor will i ever find my place in life. I hate when people dont really know you and when shit gets said and its wrong and you try to tell them that but they just dont seem to listen? Well they dont really know how much it hurts and it can somtimes lead to doing something stupid and the next thing you know..... there gone. Sometimes i just feel like leaving and never coming back because i feel like a nobody. i walk through the halls feeling like im not even there. People walking into you and past you like your not even there. People favor eachother just because on how they look or what they wear. I just feel know one cares about me like im just some peace of shit on the side of the road. I believe school in not for everyone and its pathetic how we cant go anywhere in life just because we weren't good at something in school doesnt mean that we can do of perform at a job because there are many people out there that dont have that chance just because they were not good at that one thing. Some people are what you would call street smart who are not good at school but once they get out there they can do the impossable. Then there are the school smart people who can do what ever the hell they want but are not street smart. I told my mom a wanted to become an engineer, or an arcatect. But i will be lucky to even be a damn waiter or something. I feel like everyone needs time to find themself in this stupidity world. I believe it would be better if we take classes that would go with what we would like to be instead of taking all these classes that is not going to serve any purpose in our lifes. Im going nowhere in life besides the hole to a nobody. I already am a nobody so why try when i know for a fact im not going to pass school. It's fair to anyone. Teachers think we have all the fucking time in the world for all this fucking homework and we dont and they wonder why students are failing. This economy is going to shit and why should we have to fucking suffer from it. It stupid pathetic and just down right bullshit. So what did you really want to be and do in life??
For my free blog, I am going to write about college. Ok so, Im not going to lie, i am freaking out about college. I know, it seems pretty early to be thinking about it, but if you think about about, we take the ACT's next year and start applying right in the beginning of senior year. So far, I think im college bound, but my grades arent the best. I pull off like 3.0's or 3.3's which is average but not that great. I really want to go to college to get a quality education. So i need to step it up, so i make sure that happens. But it seems like everytime i try my hardest in school my grades go down to like C's and stuff. But all and all i really care about my education, and i am trying my hardest so i can get into a good college.
the other day my friend, Kaela, came up to me in the the hall and asked if i was ready for soccer tryouts in two weeks. i have had so much going on lateley i kind of just put that off. now i am totally stressed out about it. i was running every once and awhile but i wish i would have done more. so i am trying to get conditioned as best i can in the limited time. it would have been nice to have been more prepared but i am just going to have to work with this. i was really mad at myself that i kept putting it off becasue i try not to do that. i like to get things done with a little extra time left so i am not freaking out. i guess i just have to learn from this mistake and never do it again.
I think today i will talk about college and my fear of it. First of all I am afraid that I will not get accepted to where I want to go. Also, im afraid i will not like the school I pick. They say college is supposed to be the best time of your life but why is everyone I talk to always stressed? They say theirs loads of homework and that you should enjoy high-school while it lasts. Personally, right now I am so sick of high school and everything that goes with it. I feel like i am doing the same thing over and over again. I think I am just excited for a new era in my life. Now the fear part comes back again though as I know I will eventualy miss my family. Whatever college I choose I hope it is the right one. Jordan Blanzy 6th
Tonight I will talk about a few things that interest me. First dirt bikes... The last few days have been fun and absolutely horid for rideing. The snow makes dirt bikes very fun but dangerouse. I have no studs on my tires but can manage to rip through snow and ice with no problem. So far i'm beat from all this because I probably fell 20 times in the last 3 days. All I have to say is that its fun and I plan to get hurt again tommorow. another fun thing I do is airsoft. Its not the normal 30.00 walmart airsoft guns most people think of. I play with guys in the military, police officers and other people from the public. (even a few from LHS...Rob keller). We use replica's that S.W.A.T. teams and military use to practice with. I have my own indoor field in farmington and we play every Friday night. This mainly perceives me because I love Mil-sim games like these.
Okay, this is how a raid works. You find a big place that you cannot traverse alone or even with 5 others so you get more than 5, this is technically a raid. You Have to go to a city then say in the trade channel what you need, more DPS*, a TANK*, or the most important part of any formation of adventurers, a healer. Unfortunately for players, the EXACT job of what you need won't be around to hear your message until a painful hour and 1/2 has passed. Even if you have everyone sighed up you have to explain what not to do to, even that takes a good 15 minutes. It's like 10-30 people are putting a jigsaw puzzle together and someone has to tell the ADHD kids not to slam their fist on the puzzle. Even THEN you can still screw up, even if you explain not to punch the puzzle the ADHD kids might sometimes forget, everyone dies, 15 minutes are from wipe recovery and re-buffs, and even then you can screw up MORE! World of warcraft is a game of patience with other people. The point of a raid is to get some badass gear to boost your stats.
My role as a warlock is 3 things, Soul stone the healer*, cast a specific spell, and piss off whatever is attacking the healer so it will try to kill me before it kills off the healer(the healer usually dies in one hit, while I would die in 5). There's also another job I've dedicated to myself, that is entertaining everyone so that the process isn't a bore fest.
Raids can take form less than a lunch break and EXTREMELY hard, to a 3 hour one that is moderately easy. Someone had told me I was a good warlock, witch I find weird because the job isn't that hard.
I guess in the world there will be people who screw up continuously, I wish they would get off MMOs because then the game becomes funless. and there is no point to playing a game that isn't fun.
DPS=damage per second TANK=The person who pisses off everything first, kinda like a meat shield. Soul stone the healer-apparently to die your soul has to leave your body, what I do is suck all the life(but not the will so the person won't keel over) from the target and then after he/she dies, the life returns to them. I found this explanation lame too.
For the people that know me best, or just other students in my class, they can all tell I'm pretty psychotic when it comes to my grades. In middle school i never really cared about my grades, and i got pretty bad grades. But i started to actual apply myself freshmen year. I got a lot better grades and my parents were proud and surprised with them. But this years gotten a lot harder and its harder to maintain the same grade point i had last year. I feel like if i don't do as good or better ill feel like a failure. And now I'm giving up time that I'd rather spend hanging out with friends to do all of my homework. Which is too much! we go to school for about six or seven hours, that leaves five or six hours for us to do what we want. But instead teachers assign us homework that takes away even more of our time. is seven hours of school five days a week for 9 months not enough time to teach us everything thats needed?
I think for my blog I will talk about going to OTC. I want to go to OTC becasue I want to go to a technical school. By going to a technical school I can learn more about what I want to do in my future. The section I want to study would have to be the heavy equipment or auto body. In my future I would like to become some kind of mechanic because I love working on cars and trucks with my dad. If I went to OTC and entered into those classes I think it would get me on a good start to becoming a mechanic. Heavy equipment is just big construction equipment. People have said that people who work on that equipment get paid pretty good money and it is an easy job. OTC offers a certificate when you graduate so when I do graduate I could get a job right away doing something in that field.
Today, I was watching a video on youtube of T.I. and Justin Timberlake's new song "Dead and Gone." In the beginning of the video, there was a quote from the bible that said, "When I was a child I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; But when I became a man, I put childish things away." (1 Corinthians 13:11) This song and quote go so well together. The song is talking about how a person feels like they have been going down the same road for too long now and really just want to go back home. The quote is showing that when you become an adult, you must put away your foolish ways and live up to your responsibilites. It's great to see how the artists connected the song to a quote; the song makes a much larger impact. When I listen to this song, it reminds me that you have to make sure you do not let yourself get stuck in an area of your life where you feel like you cannot get out of. You have to think through decisions and follow the right path. This is very true as we grow up and mature into adults. We need to not get stuck on a one-way raod that leads to a dead end. Instead, we need to make the right choices and realize that if we make a wrong choice, we need to turn around before we get completely lost on the road we have taken.
On tuesday night my sister had come home from college. Im always happy to see my sister because I think she is very entertaining. I think it is very vital for a family to be close. My mom always said blood is thicker than water. I love how I can be so free minded in front of my loved ones. I know that I am very blessed to have such a wonderful family. They are not only caring, but they are hilarious. I hope everyone can have a relationship with their family the way I have one with mine.
I guess i'll blog about music. I know a lot of people blog about music. Its something I want to do after high school. I know my chances of making it in a band are really slim so why not just go for a radio station job. Theres plenty of things I can do up there and still be around music. I could be live on the air or I can be doing interviews. Theres also jobs of making everything work and what not. Besides that i'm not really sure what I wanna do after high school.
Well, as most people know, I love to draw. It kind of rules my life, so to speak. I could draw for hours on end, and not get bored. I've done it before, and it can help me how to work on things i couldn't do before. Proportions, stances, and a simple pose used to be difficult. But once I started drawing more, people realized my potential worth. I've made more friends with my art than anyone could with their rapping 'skills'. I've met most of my friends through art, and it helps build a relationship with snippets of teachings with each peice we draw. :3
Another thing: People know that I'm 'crazy' or 'socially retarded', but the cold hard truth is that I just plain don't like the stuff you're into. You like rap, I prefer metal. You like snowbarding, I like making costumes. Not everyone's gonna want to sit at your 'place' and 'chill' over a stolen beer and a blunt you bought from a 25-year-old who lives with his mom. Ya know? Not a lot of people like that kind of thing.
My ideal worst spent time would be driving around Lansing look for the taco bell that didn't exist.(me and friends spent 10-15 minutes looking for one.) But at least it was fun. No one complained, except for the person we were supposed to buy 10+soft tacos for.(we gave what was left of his money back. :D )
And, not to sound whiney or anything, but can't this school have better-i dunno-CAMERAS? There's a nice empty hallway that kids go during class above the pool area. I think a nice WORKING camera should go there. Enough with all the fake cameras placed to scare people. Real cameras. I was assulted at my last school, and the camera I thought had caught the attack wasn't real. I was chased, beaten, threatened, and no one saw it. I guess they thought because it was a small town, they didn't need to worry. "Girls wouldn't hurt each other." "But she's a good girl." "She wouldn't do that." Excuses made for the girls to take advantage of. >:(
My response to the enviroment and disiplinary system? YOU'RE DOIN IT WORNG. >:(
Today i am going to talk about sports. I have played sports my whole life and have always enjoyed them. My favorite was football but now that i have had a really good basketball season, not to brag or anything, i am really considering about just playing baskeball and golf. Take the time that football would normally be and dedicate it to basketball. I think that i could become a good player and maybe get a scholarship somewhere or something. Plus some people really want me to start next year on varsity for the point gaurd position and thats my goal too but that can't happen overnight so there is just another reason. It is probably because the factor that mike is leaving and they want me to fill the steps and those are huge steps to fill but i think i can do it. However, some want me to not play golf too, but i am not really sure about that because i really like golf. on the other hand a lot of people want me to play football and i don't want to disappoint them but i think i am going to, to make others happy. It is pretty much a win, lose situation what ever way you look at it. Last is i want to become someone in sports and i think it is going to be through basketball so i would be surprised if in august i am wearing football pads.

p.s. don't start spreading rumors yet because i am not a 100 percnt sure, thanks
I have absolutly no idea what to do with my life. I'm not really good at something or have a passion for anything. I feel like I sorta just get by at stuff. Also that I'm always a step behind. I think that this may be a problem because with the economy today, you really need to get ahead. I hate all this extra stress on how we need to get really good grades. Also, that we need to figure out some way to set us apart from the others. Hopefully I find something that I'm really good at. Also something that I'd be willing to work for. Kristen Pauly 6th hr.
Music is one of the most influential things in life. I know a lot of people blog about music on free blog days and I might have done it once before, but, to me it is even more important now than before. Lately, it has played a huge role in my life. I listen to music everyday and I can't go anywhere without my ipod in my left front pocket. Music is one of those things that can influence a mood. If I listen to one kind of music I might get all pumped up. But if I listen to slower music, I can get Depressed. It just has that kind of an effect on me. I am also planning to get an ipod touch in a week or so, so I can experience music more interactively. I also currently play the drums in a band with my friends. We play rock/alternative music and were just starting out but I think were pretty good so far. One of the advantages of playing the drums is it relieves stress. After a bad day, sometimes I go home a bang on my drums in the "Beat Laboratory" (from Step Brothers) to calm myself. But, they are also fun to just play along to your favorite songs on.
There was a fight after school. I know who both the girls are. I don't know why they where fighting. After the fight was over there was a huge chunk of hair on the floor.
I have not been 2 happy lately. I have heard a lot of people saying a lot of mean things about me recently. My self conscious was already messed up, it's not like they needed to add on to it. I don't know why so many people don't like me. Whatever. It's not like they where telling me things I already didn't know :/
Yeh. I have like 16 pages done on my snap book project thing. Yep.
Tomarrow I get to miss school because of snowboarding. I am really excited to go because I get to miss school and snowboard the whole day. It it cool that we are even going because everyone thought that we wern't goig to make it. Milford and St.Marys were really close to going. Lakeland was in third and we had one more met to do. St.Marys got three DQs so we won and got to go to states. But I am really mad, because the moved me down a class and I don't know why. I was a B2 but they moved me down to a C1. All of the Cs arent racing in states. I don't get why they moved me down, I have always come in first or second. I won't beable to race but I can just hit all the rails while Im waiting. But Im going to talk to the coach and ask if I can be put back to my normal spot. If he doesn't Im going to be really pissed off. Other than that I think that I will have a good time. Chris Reid 6th hour
snowboarding to me is liike a way of life. Some people do it everyday like its there job. it's like something you just thrive to do. sometimes i will see a trick in a video or somthing and be like holy shit i wanna do that. Then when i try that trick or whatever i prosses it in my head and watch it in my mind. Somtimes i dont know how i do any of the tricks i do. everyones always asking me how i do everything and i can never give them an answer.
I would like to take this opportunity to discuss the privledge of driving. Now that we are all getting to the age to be able to drive we need to take on the responsibiity of making good decisions. Up to this point the decisions we make impact ourselves, family and friends. With the responsibility of driving we have to take other lifes into consideration. With that in mind, I owe it to the other families to be a safe and responsible driver. This week I am completing segment two of drivers education and learning horrible things that people encounter due to bad decisions while driving. I am going to keep these visuals and stories when I get behind the wheel and remember who serious driving is.
My blog for this evening is going to be stress on teenagers in high school. I'm not going to lie, lately I've been very stressed about activities going on in my life. First of all, I have school everyday, just any other teenager. Along with school though I have poms, which is not considered a sport, but still is a ton of work. Poms is usually everyday, or 3 times a week. I'm not the only one who has after school activities. There's basketball, football, swim, cheerleading, soccer, wrestling, cross country and track. All these activities take up a majority of students after school time. Therefore, when teacher pile on homework, it's really hard to complete all of the work. I know, that when poms was going on, I would stay up until midnight sometimes trying to finish my homework. I believe that we should have a different type of homework system, because with students being very active in sports and other activities, it's hard to handle so much homework. It's a whole lot of pressure, and students may not do well under pressure.
I am born to be an engineer. I love to build things. Sometimes, to relax, I like to go in to my room and create things that I wont, with my legos. I use my imagination to think of how to make it. I also love to cook which is also like building things. You take the ingredients and make something different out of them. Both my father and grandfather were engineers. I think that I got it from them.
Today i am going to talk about good grades don't come easy. Alot of people see me as smart, just beacasue i get good grades, but thats not beacasue it too easy or i already know what i am learning. I get good grades beacasue i try hard and listen to teachers instead of sleeping or texting. Another reason that i get good grades is beacause i will ask questions if needed, where most kids ask me the question they have instead of asking the teacher. The biggest part is effort, if you don't put time into something you can't expect much to be result of it. People say wow you are smart, but i see it as i remmber what the teacher just told me and i am able to write it down. If you quized me on stuff i did not already know i would try to do it but, i most likely would do bad beacasue i have not learned the material. If you listen and follow directions and practice you will do well on that material, its as simple as that.
Today i rode my horse. I try to see my horse edleast 4 nights a week. I honestly will usually choose my horse over my friends. I say this because I love my horse, and enjoy being with him. He has been in my life since i was 9, and im sure he will be in my life for another 15 years. I feel like i can get away from everyone and everything at the farm. Its peaceful and it gives me time to think about other things than school. My horse is my life. Well, so is tennis. But my horse is #1. I am the fourth generation in my family to have a horse.
Life right now seems rather sad. Just in case some of you don't know, my great grandfather died last Sunday. The very same day I came back from my church retreat actually. Let's just say it wasn't the best news to come home to. Before today it didn't seem to bad but then I saw my grandfather, just laying there, motionless...and it seemed like there was just a force that just washed over me. I couldn't help from crying, and oddly enough I wanted to cry. Tomorrow's going to be worse for I have to go to the funeral. On top of that I'm going to speaking a few words in memory of him (I chose to do this bythe way). Friday i'm going to be so distant from everybody else it's not even funny. I just hope things get better...
Today I would like to talk about a man named Cassius Clay. This man is also known as Muhammad Ali. I am talking about him because he has inspired me most of my life. Many people disliked him when he was the worlds greatest boxer. They disliked him because he was a very cocky outspoken person. Ali said whatever he wanted whenever he wanted and to whoever he wanted to. But he could back almost anything he said up with his unbelievable fighting style. Ali made his fights look effortless. He would swing with such smooth form and paralyze his opponent with extreme force. Every time I go into a serious sports event I think of one of his most famous quotes "I Am The Greatest." This helps me focus and work my hardest to become like him.
I think for my free blog i will talk about the Detroit Tigers season beginning. Today was their first game of spring training. I think that the Tigers were a team who played lower than their ability last year. They were the team picked to win it all, but 162 games was too much for them, and they didnt get into a grrove until August. I think that again this year the Tigers are seen to do well. However, they need some veteran leadershipm to bring them to the playoffs. Lastly, the one thing i like about baseball starting, is that it means WARMTH instead of this 15 degrees we havew been dealing with.
Baseball is a very important thing to me. Baseball is not just a game, its a sport that brings people together and builds friendships. Last year when I played on varsity, I felt really weird hanging out with all of the seniors and juniors. But ironically, we became good friends and we are pretty tight now. I never thought that the upper classman would talk to a punk freshman, but they did. I also built friendships with my grade too. Zakc and I became much closer and I think that baseball is a sport that brings people together along with being competitive.
You can either read all of this, which a conversation, or you can skip to the bottom for the wrap up about it. Your Choice.

9:33pm Friend what if he had a gun, nick? i'm like, really afraid.
9:33pm Nick no Friend, i am to unfortunately he might be packing worse thats what i am thinking good thing those lockers fit people easily we could always hide in them
9:34pm Friend yeah, but fuck that! i'd be running for my life as fast as i could!
9:34pm Nick wheres your car again? im running for that!
9:34pm Friend it's a school, he can't cover all the ground. Ha Ha, Yeah, its near the middle
9:34pm Nick exactly get in and go! so the car that zoomed by was his also apparently
9:35pm Friend yeah i heard that too.
9:35pm Nick we deduced that in class
9:35pm Friend and you know, there's probably nothing to worry about too. but there's always that 'what if' feeling, you know? anything can happen.
9:35pm Nick If, i hate IF

9:36pm Nick i think they said he graduated like 3 years ago if
9:36pm Friend it's just frightening know that he was hanging around the students, and no one realized. what if he's been doing that for a while?

9:41pm Nick i think, unfortunately its a lot worse than just some wacko walking the halls 9:41pm Friend i know, it really freaks me out.
*********************************
this was a conversation me and a Friend Had about how we feel about. in order to protect their privacy, i had edited a couple of things. but as you can see, we had discussed a lot of what ifs, and we had a lot of thoughts propagating in our heads. i think everyone in the school had the same sense of optimistic-ness that it was truly nothing, but the underlying thought was that this guy could easily be doing a lot worse, which truly scares me, and obviously my friend. the part that i had pointed out, and that had hitched a ride a long in my mind, was the fact that no one really knew. NO ONE KNEW. that was seriously screwed up. Obviously we had one clean good solution, being that we need to screen everyone that walks in and out of the building, and closing up all unnecessary doors. i think we need to take serious security measures now! not for the nest incident, or one after that, or in a while. Honestly now, i may or may not be at school tomorrow because i am scared for my life about it.
I hope we found this informational. And this is why we should have way better security
Megan Fraser 5th hour Today I will talk about friendship. I know it sounds cliche but I really don't know what I would do without them. I have two best friends and the cool thing is that they're completely opposite. One is exactly like me and one is the total opposite. I can tell them anything and can totally be myself around them which is great. I am myself around people all the time but I don't tell just anyone my secrets. Besides the two best friends, I have a lot of other friends and they really make school interesting and fun for me. Friends are a very important part of my life and I'm very glad to have them.
Im not sure if people know this about me but I really like playing basketball. Basketball is pretty much my life, and besides school and my family there is not much else I care about. But Mr. Kay keeps telling me that he thinks there is more to me than just basketball. So instead of basketball I'm going to write about volleyball. I'm my gym class me and will shwartz pretty much own and no one can stop our duo. What happens during gym is me and will try to set the ball to eachother everytime. So far our little strategie has worked but we have been paired up with some pretty bad teammates. This has really brought down the intensity that me and will bring game after game. So what I was thinking was that me and will are just going to try to spike the frickin ball every chance we get. I think that since our team is so flippin bad that this is the only solution. We are now going to be like Kobe and Shaq. We are going to only look out for ourselves and bring a victory to our team. If you look at what Kobe and Shaq did, it was pretty amazing. They won back to back NBA championships. Also during the all-star game this year they were co-MVP's. Only great things can happen now because they bad days are behind us. If you are someone going against our team, I would just watchout because your about to get embarassed. Did u hear me Ruffin...WATCH OUT.
Today there was a fight after school. It was the first fight i have ever seen in my entire life. It was kinda cool, but at the same time scary. I personally think that fighting is stupid. Whats the point of beating someones ass and then getting suspended for 10 days. Just solve out the problem in a better way. Not by hitting someone, or pulling out their hair.

I'm going to talk about my day. Well i came to school and my boyfriends head was shaved. You have no idea how mad i was!! i felt like screaming. He looks like some rapist or something haha. But guess I'm gonna have to get used to it. Other than that i had a pretty boring day like usual.After school there was a fight. It was swee. between two girls. But i know if i was on of them i would of done what i did to the other one shes scaryyy!!! lol. Then i came home and slept for like 30 mins. The got up and got ready for my cheer banquet. It lasted for ever! but i got my varsity letter! Finallyyy. At the banquet everyone was talking about that guy that pulled the fire alarms. Kinda creppyyy! I'm not gonna be able to fall asleep tonight. The we rushed home because lost was on! and we were missing it. i was pretty mad! then my mom sowed on my letter on the jacket and then now im doing this. lol.
I think iam going to write about success.To me i think success is the the most important thing in the world. You dont have a future if you dont do something with your life.School prepares as for the real world, it gets so hard but i think everything has a reason. I want to be successful so bad i just feel like iam at a stoping point in my life where i cant get back on the right track. I feel as if i need help to steer me in the right direction. I hope one day i will succeed.
Well, thus far in hockey we have a record of 2-1-1 and play the last round robin play off game in the leauge. This game is a win/tie or go home game that means alot to our team. So far St. Marys has locked down first no matter what but friday night when we play Grosse point North is the game that is for all the marbels. The way the round robin works is there are 6 teams and you play every team once. Making it were you play 5 games. The top two teams with the best records move on to the next round which is semi-finals. So far we have a total of 5 points and the team in which we are competing with has 6. If we are to win our game on friday vs. GPN we would take two points putting us ahead of Woodhaven. If we were to tie we would take only one point which would make us tied with woodheavan. The reason why we would move up in a tie situation is because the first tie breaker is head-to-head. Neither would win this one because in our last game against eachother we tied. The secnd is goals for. We would win thhis tie breaker because we have scored more goals for us than wood heaven has scored for them. Now that i haved explained it you know how important this is.
Someday, I got a math homework . Since they were just simple calculation problems, it was going easy before the last one. It took me only 30 minutes to do 21 questions, but I spent 2 hours for the last one; I still haven't got answer, and it was 11:30 at night. Then someone of my family came in my room and told me to go to sleep. I explained "I won't go to sleep before I get this freaking problem done." The person said I need to sleep for school on the next day, however, and forced me to turn the light off. I could not understand; how could he attempt to discourage my enthusiasm as a family? Passion is the thing that he should've spurred inside me, as a family member, not discouraged. I was so disappointed. What would you expect me to do something when I grow up if I ain't fond of sacrifising anything for more valuable things?
For my blog this time I am going to write about my mom. My mom is my hero. She is the only one who is always going to be there for me. I feel I can tell her anything, and she can tell me anything. We are close, we are best friends. My mom is the one person who I trust telling everything to, and I know she wont go and tell the world. I guess by me writing about my mommy you could perceive me as a mommy's girl. =]
I think that every person needs a stable home when they are growing up. It gives you a sence of security, assurance, and happiness. People like me, who didnt have this growing up find themselves missing what they never had. People need to stop putting thier children threw so much stuff and try to atleast shelter them from it. People that have gone threw many things and had less stability tend to have mental problems threwout thier lives. They doubt many things, dont see when people actually care, and many many other problems occur. I wish i had a stable home growing up, but I know the things i went threw made me who i am today. I know if and when i have kids I would want them to have much better than what I had.
Mr. Kay, I have no excuse except for the fact that I totally forgot yesterday about the blog. But even if i don't get any credit for it i still wanted to get it done.
For my free blog I would like to write about music. This may sound strange but music helps me escape from all the things going on around me. When I want to relax I put my i-pod on and just listen to it. Listening to music before a hockey game helps me get focused on the game and ready to play. Other times it just helps me relax. Depending on how im feeling will depend on what kind of music i want to listen to. I think for a lot of people it can express who they are too. People say you can tell what kind of person you are depending on what kind of music you listen to, but for me that's not true. I like all different kinds, if you look at my i-pod you will see music from slow sad songs all the way to rap.

For my free bog today I will write about music. I know it is always a topic that is written about, but I think that music influences everyone. For me, music lets me express how I feel. I don't play an instrument, but certain music or songs reflect how I feel at the moment. We as people can relate to each other through music, because we all experience the same type of things. I also think that music influences me to feel a certain way. The artist can express how they feel and I can understand the person through their music. I suppose that you can in someways perceive a person through the music they listen to. People can connect through the music they listen too. I just think that music is the best way for you to get your point across on how you are feeling.
hmm...I really don't know what I'm going to do with my life. Yes, I know, I'm practically 16 [march 31 :)] and I'm worrying about this. I see all my classmates doing well, and succeeding, I know I'm being repetitive, I just don't see myself making it in life. All the things around me bring me down. I really like music, so maybe I could be a disc jockey because I'm really outgoing, but I wish I could be like a pilot or a doctor, just everytime I have a good grade it drops and that pisses me off. I believe school isn't for everyone, and I'm in that category. I don't want to come off as lazy, I just think we're young once and everyone should take a break to find who they are as a teen. Not completely, I just want to go in the right direction. Soo, maybe my life after highschool i'll be a drifter who knows. I just don't want to be stuck in one place. I think the point of my blog is i need to become more incontroll and not let things get to me. I have awhile to think things through, i just need a little guidance, plus, dont let people take away your dreams, no one can..what did you want to be when you were little?

well i am a good snowboarder i feel. I really like to go up to alpine and just hang out with my friends. i snowboard with Andrew Hatfield mostly. I also like to play air soft i try to play at least once a week with my friend hunter. I find air soft fun because it gets your adrenaline going and it a fast pace game you can play with your buddy's. The only down side to air soft is that it leave some pretty good welts after you play a game or two. Those go away after a couple of days though so its not that bad. i love to ride the roller coasters at cedar point. my favorite ride i think is the millennium. I mean really i think as me just being a adrenaline junky.
I think for my free blog i will also talk about music. It seems like a good topic to write about.
Music influences me and everyone that listens to it. i dont play a instrument but i love to sing. The music that i listne too often shows how i am feeling that day. Everyone likes different types of music. I mostly like all kinds of music. People can relate wtih eachother through music, because everyone likes music. Everyone listens to different kinds of music.

I'm going to write about how I have been feeling with my sezuires. Well I hadn't had any sezuire activity in a while and hopefully it stays that way. It better stay that way so I can stop missing school so much. Also, I just turn sixteen and I still don't have my learners permit because of these sezuires. I didn't play hockey for weeks because of it and I felt miserible. Hopefully, I will be six months sezuire free. I want to feel free to do the things that I want to do.

I see myself as a proffecional ping pong player. I would love to be able to get a scollarship doing this as my profession. If I could play ping pong all day long I would be so freaking happy, you have no idea. You know how a fat kid likes cake; thats how much I enjoy ping pong. Give me a paddle, a ball, and some mini shorts, and i'll be on my way. Ping pong is my life, and im going to die playing this sport. I am going to become the best of the best, and when i win it all i'm going to go to disney land.

the other day i rode on a speed bike. it was a yamaha r6, the model below an r1. eventhough i was riding on the back it still was the sweetest thing ever. the bike was unbelievably fast. i dont wana say any speeds to get my self in trouble, but we went like 120. im pretty sure i want one more than a new car now. the problem with getting a bike at a young age is that, eventhough the bike itself is relitively cheap, the insurance is through the roof. if you could foot the bill id definatly say its worth it.

Mr. Kay,
I think that childhood is something very important to all of us. It is the area of our lives when our personalities are shaped amongst plenty other big aspects in our lives. That is why I like to consider myself a very nostalgic person. I like to watch television shows from when I was a small child. I like to watch movies that where my favorite eight years ago. I like to listen to music that embraces or has something happy like my childhood or something that just reminds me of my childhood. I maybe have to much longing for the good old day, but I like living in my childhood for years. I don't really want to care about what I need to do in the future. I would much rather care about something in my past. I'm really like my childhood, when everything was simple, fun, and perfect and that why I embrace it.

For my free blog I will be talking about grades. Grades in highschool are important because they determine whether or not you get into a good college. In my family, grades have always come first. My parents have always wanted me to do my best so that I can have a good successful life. I want to try my best so that I can have a great life and not have to worry about money issues. The only way I will be able to achieve this is by keeping my mind on my grades. I need a better habit of studying and stay concentrated. I think I will be able to achieve this because so far my grades have been pretty good.

I was watching nascar for a short amount of time yesterday. It got pretty old after the 200th lap. I dont understand how it can be called a sport when driving around a track 500 times is all that happens. How can you be a die hard nascar fan? How can one get so into a car driving in circles and occasionally making a pit stop? Hell anyone can drive a car around a track, if they dont get it the first lap around, they have about 499 laps to get it right. Why is it called a sport? How is sitting in a car physical activity?

Mr.Kay,
"Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you."-Nathaniel Hawthorne. I read this quote today, and it made me think about life. I thought about they way we all search for things. We look for happiness for love, and for success. We dont live in the moment, we strive to make the future better. But, what if there isnt a future. What if all we had was today? then, all that time and effort we put in just goes down the drain. The part about happiness also made me think about letting life happen to you. People say you have to live your life, not just let it happen. But, maybe letting it happen IS the best way to go. Maybe we should all stop obsessing over succcess, and just let things go. Becasue if it's mant to be, then it's ment to be!

Call of duty 4 is so much better than call of duty 5. In call of duty 4 there are way better guns to use. I am also better at COD4 than i am and COD5 but that doesn' matter. COD5 has stupid gun that ae not powerful at all. The best gun in COD5 to me would be the type 100, or the MP40. The best gun in COD4 to me would be the MP5 with red dot. If your playing hardcore, then i would suggest using the M40 Sniper with over kill and use the MP5. Also put on exrteme conditioning and fragx3. I do really good with these cobinations so try it cuz im boss at COD4.

Mr. Kay,
For my free blog I will be writing about how important my friendships are to me. You see, I'm having a little trouble with one of my friendships at the moment. For the past two days, I have been talking to one of my good friends. He's so funny. It's like he has two personalities, at school he makes fun of me in a nice way. And when he's at home, he's really sweet and cares about my borring life. But today, I felt that he was avoiding me. I texted him asking what was wrong, I didn't get an answer. The next time I texted him, I got a message back from his phone. One of his friends texted me on his phone and said who they were and that I should leave him alone. I couldn't think of why he'd say that. There wasn't any hints that he was mad at me. I replied. Later I found out that he didn't say that, the other person did. When I tried to apologize, his friend told me to go away. I don't know what to do. He won't talk to me, look at me, text me back, or anything. I don't know why his friend doesnt want me talking to him. But Im not going to say anything mean to them because those are his friends, and I just want him to know that I am sorry for whatever I did to make him mad. And that I'm not going to be mean to his friends because I don't want him to be mad at me. I hope we can solve this problem, especially because his birthday is coming up, in which I'm still getting him a present no matter what. I'm so sorry. I hope they forgive me.

Sports have played a huge part in my life. I have made sports the focus point in my life for the longest time. At first people said that sports are supposed to teach you life lessons. Then it turned more into a big competition. This is one of the reasons I played so many sports at a young age. My dad had to force me to play soccer and into many other sports. At first I didn't think I would be good. However, I then found out that sports was my calling. I am a very athetically fit person and I enjoy to exercise. Running around getting a good workout in really helps me stay healthy. When I was young I tried nearly every sport. Finally I narrowed it down. Up until 9th grade I have played soccer, basketball, I wrestled, and I did cross country. This year for my sophomore year I have only played soccer. This is the only sport for me because I love it. Along the way this year I have disappointed many people including my past coaches and players. Many people view me differently because I quit these sports. I hope to pursue a career in soccer and get through college on a scholarship.

Well I am getting really excited. In about 3 weeks or a little less my brother is coming home from Iraq. He is my hero. It sucks that I don't get to call him everyday. I miss him so much, my whole misses him. He is in the Air Force, he drive cars. So when he gets out he can be a bus driver. My older brother is my insparation to strive to be in the military. He has tought me so much. He has a 11 month son. He was gone for the last 6 months. So he almost all of my nephews firsts. But he has got to see him on the web cam. I that is why I like living in the world today. Back when WWII happen all you could send is letters. You could percive me as a person who loves her family!!!
I am a computer genus and grease monkey. Im a musician and loving. I have had an interest in computers since I was about 10. My uncle has taught me most of what I know today. I have also built my own dunebuggy with my dad. We worked on rebuilding an engine and he taught me the ins and outs of being a mechanic. I really enjoyed that time I had to share with my dad, learning along the way. I have been interested in music since I can remember. I started playing the Saxophone in 6th grade; I still play it in Lakeland's Wind Ensemble class today. Music Is a way I can express myself, because my voice isnt very good.
I love dogs; my dogs name is Coco and she is one of the most important things to me.

My mom once said to me "so what do you want to be when you grow up?"
You know no matter what someone tells me i just dont think school is for me. No matter what i do i just keep falling and falling into the pit of life and i cant get out. I some times feel like like i just wasnt ment to be here. No matter what i do i cant nor will i ever find my place in life. I hate when people dont really know you and when shit gets said and its wrong and you try to tell them that but they just dont seem to listen? Well they dont really know how much it hurts and it can somtimes lead to doing something stupid and the next thing you know..... there gone. Sometimes i just feel like leaving and never coming back because i feel like a nobody. i walk through the halls feeling like im not even there. People walking into you and past you like your not even there. People favor eachother just because on how they look or what they wear. I just feel know one cares about me like im just some peace of shit on the side of the road. I believe school in not for everyone and its pathetic how we cant go anywhere in life just because we weren't good at something in school doesnt mean that we can do of perform at a job because there are many people out there that dont have that chance just because they were not good at that one thing. Some people are what you would call street smart who are not good at school but once they get out there they can do the impossable. Then there are the school smart people who can do what ever the hell they want but are not street smart. I told my mom a wanted to become an engineer, or an arcatect. But i will be lucky to even be a damn waiter or something. I feel like everyone needs time to find themself in this stupidity world. I believe it would be better if we take classes that would go with what we would like to be instead of taking all these classes that is not going to serve any purpose in our lifes. Im going nowhere in life besides the hole to a nobody. I already am a nobody so why try when i know for a fact im not going to pass school. It's fair to anyone. Teachers think we have all the fucking time in the world for all this fucking homework and we dont and they wonder why students are failing. This economy is going to shit and why should we have to fucking suffer from it. It stupid pathetic and just down right bullshit. So what did you really want to be and do in life??
For my free blog, I am going to write about college. Ok so, Im not going to lie, i am freaking out about college. I know, it seems pretty early to be thinking about it, but if you think about about, we take the ACT's next year and start applying right in the beginning of senior year. So far, I think im college bound, but my grades arent the best. I pull off like 3.0's or 3.3's which is average but not that great. I really want to go to college to get a quality education. So i need to step it up, so i make sure that happens. But it seems like everytime i try my hardest in school my grades go down to like C's and stuff. But all and all i really care about my education, and i am trying my hardest so i can get into a good college.

the other day my friend, Kaela, came up to me in the the hall and asked if i was ready for soccer tryouts in two weeks. i have had so much going on lateley i kind of just put that off. now i am totally stressed out about it. i was running every once and awhile but i wish i would have done more. so i am trying to get conditioned as best i can in the limited time. it would have been nice to have been more prepared but i am just going to have to work with this. i was really mad at myself that i kept putting it off becasue i try not to do that. i like to get things done with a little extra time left so i am not freaking out. i guess i just have to learn from this mistake and never do it again.
I think today i will talk about college and my fear of it. First of all I am afraid that I will not get accepted to where I want to go. Also, im afraid i will not like the school I pick. They say college is supposed to be the best time of your life but why is everyone I talk to always stressed? They say theirs loads of homework and that you should enjoy high-school while it lasts. Personally, right now I am so sick of high school and everything that goes with it. I feel like i am doing the same thing over and over again. I think I am just excited for a new era in my life. Now the fear part comes back again though as I know I will eventualy miss my family. Whatever college I choose I hope it is the right one.

Tonight I will talk about a few things that interest me. First dirt bikes...
The last few days have been fun and absolutely horid for rideing. The snow makes dirt bikes very fun but dangerouse. I have no studs on my tires but can manage to rip through snow and ice with no problem. So far i'm beat from all this because I probably fell 20 times in the last 3 days. All I have to say is that its fun and I plan to get hurt again tommorow.
another fun thing I do is airsoft. Its not the normal 30.00 walmart airsoft guns most people think of. I play with guys in the military, police officers and other people from the public. (even a few from LHS...Rob keller). We use replica's that S.W.A.T. teams and military use to practice with. I have my own indoor field in farmington and we play every Friday night. This mainly perceives me because I love Mil-sim games like these.
Okay, this is how a raid works. You find a big place that you cannot traverse alone or even with 5 others so you get more than 5, this is technically a raid. You Have to go to a city then say in the trade channel what you need, more DPS*, a TANK*, or the most important part of any formation of adventurers, a healer. Unfortunately for players, the EXACT job of what you need won't be around to hear your message until a painful hour and 1/2 has passed. Even if you have everyone sighed up you have to explain what not to do to, even that takes a good 15 minutes. It's like 10-30 people are putting a jigsaw puzzle together and someone has to tell the ADHD kids not to slam their fist on the puzzle. Even THEN you can still screw up, even if you explain not to punch the puzzle the ADHD kids might sometimes forget, everyone dies, 15 minutes are from wipe recovery and re-buffs, and even then you can screw up MORE! World of warcraft is a game of patience with other people. The point of a raid is to get some badass gear to boost your stats.
My role as a warlock is 3 things, Soul stone the healer*, cast a specific spell, and piss off whatever is attacking the healer so it will try to kill me before it kills off the healer(the healer usually dies in one hit, while I would die in 5). There's also another job I've dedicated to myself, that is entertaining everyone so that the process isn't a bore fest.
Raids can take form less than a lunch break and EXTREMELY hard, to a 3 hour one that is moderately easy. Someone had told me I was a good warlock, witch I find weird because the job isn't that hard.
I guess in the world there will be people who screw up continuously, I wish they would get off MMOs because then the game becomes funless. and there is no point to playing a game that isn't fun.
DPS=damage per second
TANK=The person who pisses off everything first, kinda like a meat shield.
Soul stone the healer-apparently to die your soul has to leave your body, what I do is suck all the life(but not the will so the person won't keel over) from the target and then after he/she dies, the life returns to them. I found this explanation lame too.

For the people that know me best, or just other students in my class, they can all tell I'm pretty psychotic when it comes to my grades. In middle school i never really cared about my grades, and i got pretty bad grades. But i started to actual apply myself freshmen year. I got a lot better grades and my parents were proud and surprised with them. But this years gotten a lot harder and its harder to maintain the same grade point i had last year. I feel like if i don't do as good or better ill feel like a failure. And now I'm giving up time that I'd rather spend hanging out with friends to do all of my homework. Which is too much! we go to school for about six or seven hours, that leaves five or six hours for us to do what we want. But instead teachers assign us homework that takes away even more of our time. is seven hours of school five days a week for 9 months not enough time to teach us everything thats needed?
I think for my blog I will talk about going to OTC. I want to go to OTC becasue I want to go to a technical school. By going to a technical school I can learn more about what I want to do in my future. The section I want to study would have to be the heavy equipment or auto body. In my future I would like to become some kind of mechanic because I love working on cars and trucks with my dad. If I went to OTC and entered into those classes I think it would get me on a good start to becoming a mechanic. Heavy equipment is just big construction equipment. People have said that people who work on that equipment get paid pretty good money and it is an easy job. OTC offers a certificate when you graduate so when I do graduate I could get a job right away doing something in that field.

Today, I was watching a video on youtube of T.I. and Justin Timberlake's new song "Dead and Gone." In the beginning of the video, there was a quote from the bible that said, "When I was a child I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; But when I became a man, I put childish things away." (1 Corinthians 13:11) This song and quote go so well together. The song is talking about how a person feels like they have been going down the same road for too long now and really just want to go back home. The quote is showing that when you become an adult, you must put away your foolish ways and live up to your responsibilites. It's great to see how the artists connected the song to a quote; the song makes a much larger impact. When I listen to this song, it reminds me that you have to make sure you do not let yourself get stuck in an area of your life where you feel like you cannot get out of. You have to think through decisions and follow the right path. This is very true as we grow up and mature into adults. We need to not get stuck on a one-way raod that leads to a dead end. Instead, we need to make the right choices and realize that if we make a wrong choice, we need to turn around before we get completely lost on the road we have taken.

On tuesday night my sister had come home from college. Im always happy to see my sister because I think she is very entertaining. I think it is very vital for a family to be close. My mom always said blood is thicker than water. I love how I can be so free minded in front of my loved ones. I know that I am very blessed to have such a wonderful family. They are not only caring, but they are hilarious. I hope everyone can have a relationship with their family the way I have one with mine.
I guess i'll blog about music. I know a lot of people blog about music. Its something I want to do after high school. I know my chances of making it in a band are really slim so why not just go for a radio station job. Theres plenty of things I can do up there and still be around music. I could be live on the air or I can be doing interviews. Theres also jobs of making everything work and what not. Besides that i'm not really sure what I wanna do after high school.

Let's see...hm.
Arts?
Well, as most people know, I love to draw. It kind of rules my life, so to speak. I could draw for hours on end, and not get bored. I've done it before, and it can help me how to work on things i couldn't do before. Proportions, stances, and a simple pose used to be difficult. But once I started drawing more, people realized my potential worth. I've made more friends with my art than anyone could with their rapping 'skills'.
I've met most of my friends through art, and it helps build a relationship with snippets of teachings with each peice we draw. :3
Another thing:
People know that I'm 'crazy' or 'socially retarded', but the cold hard truth is that I just plain don't like the stuff you're into. You like rap, I prefer metal. You like snowbarding, I like making costumes. Not everyone's gonna want to sit at your 'place' and 'chill' over a stolen beer and a blunt you bought from a 25-year-old who lives with his mom. Ya know? Not a lot of people like that kind of thing.
My ideal worst spent time would be driving around Lansing look for the taco bell that didn't exist.(me and friends spent 10-15 minutes looking for one.) But at least it was fun. No one complained, except for the person we were supposed to buy 10+soft tacos for.(we gave what was left of his money back. :D )
And, not to sound whiney or anything, but can't this school have better-i dunno-CAMERAS? There's a nice empty hallway that kids go during class above the pool area. I think a nice WORKING camera should go there. Enough with all the fake cameras placed to scare people. Real cameras. I was assulted at my last school, and the camera I thought had caught the attack wasn't real. I was chased, beaten, threatened, and no one saw it. I guess they thought because it was a small town, they didn't need to worry. "Girls wouldn't hurt each other." "But she's a good girl." "She wouldn't do that." Excuses made for the girls to take advantage of. >:(
My response to the enviroment and disiplinary system?

Today i am going to talk about sports. I have played sports my whole life and have always enjoyed them. My favorite was football but now that i have had a really good basketball season, not to brag or anything, i am really considering about just playing baskeball and golf. Take the time that football would normally be and dedicate it to basketball. I think that i could become a good player and maybe get a scholarship somewhere or something. Plus some people really want me to start next year on varsity for the point gaurd position and thats my goal too but that can't happen overnight so there is just another reason. It is probably because the factor that mike is leaving and they want me to fill the steps and those are huge steps to fill but i think i can do it. However, some want me to not play golf too, but i am not really sure about that because i really like golf. on the other hand a lot of people want me to play football and i don't want to disappoint them but i think i am going to, to make others happy. It is pretty much a win, lose situation what ever way you look at it. Last is i want to become someone in sports and i think it is going to be through basketball so i would be surprised if in august i am wearing football pads.

p.s. don't start spreading rumors yet because i am not a 100 percnt sure, thanks
I have absolutly no idea what to do with my life. I'm not really good at something or have a passion for anything. I feel like I sorta just get by at stuff. Also that I'm always a step behind. I think that this may be a problem because with the economy today, you really need to get ahead. I hate all this extra stress on how we need to get really good grades. Also, that we need to figure out some way to set us apart from the others. Hopefully I find something that I'm really good at. Also something that I'd be willing to work for.

Music is one of the most influential things in life. I know a lot of people blog about music on free blog days and I might have done it once before, but, to me it is even more important now than before. Lately, it has played a huge role in my life. I listen to music everyday and I can't go anywhere without my ipod in my left front pocket. Music is one of those things that can influence a mood. If I listen to one kind of music I might get all pumped up. But if I listen to slower music, I can get Depressed. It just has that kind of an effect on me. I am also planning to get an ipod touch in a week or so, so I can experience music more interactively. I also currently play the drums in a band with my friends. We play rock/alternative music and were just starting out but I think were pretty good so far. One of the advantages of playing the drums is it relieves stress. After a bad day, sometimes I go home a bang on my drums in the "Beat Laboratory" (from Step Brothers) to calm myself. But, they are also fun to just play along to your favorite songs on.

There was a fight after school. I know who both the girls are. I don't know why they where fighting. After the fight was over there was a huge chunk of hair on the floor.
I have not been 2 happy lately. I have heard a lot of people saying a lot of mean things about me recently. My self conscious was already messed up, it's not like they needed to add on to it. I don't know why so many people don't like me. Whatever. It's not like they where telling me things I already didn't know :/
Yeh. I have like 16 pages done on my snap book project thing. Yep.

Tomarrow I get to miss school because of snowboarding. I am really excited to go because I get to miss school and snowboard the whole day. It it cool that we are even going because everyone thought that we wern't goig to make it. Milford and St.Marys were really close to going. Lakeland was in third and we had one more met to do. St.Marys got three DQs so we won and got to go to states. But I am really mad, because the moved me down a class and I don't know why. I was a B2 but they moved me down to a C1. All of the Cs arent racing in states. I don't get why they moved me down, I have always come in first or second. I won't beable to race but I can just hit all the rails while Im waiting. But Im going to talk to the coach and ask if I can be put back to my normal spot. If he doesn't Im going to be really pissed off. Other than that I think that I will have a good time.

snowboarding to me is liike a way of life. Some people do it everyday like its there job. it's like something you just thrive to do. sometimes i will see a trick in a video or somthing and be like holy shit i wanna do that. Then when i try that trick or whatever i prosses it in my head and watch it in my mind. Somtimes i dont know how i do any of the tricks i do. everyones always asking me how i do everything and i can never give them an answer.
I would like to take this opportunity to discuss the privledge of driving. Now that we are all getting to the age to be able to drive we need to take on the responsibiity of making good decisions. Up to this point the decisions we make impact ourselves, family and friends. With the responsibility of driving we have to take other lifes into consideration. With that in mind, I owe it to the other families to be a safe and responsible driver. This week I am completing segment two of drivers education and learning horrible things that people encounter due to bad decisions while driving. I am going to keep these visuals and stories when I get behind the wheel and remember who serious driving is.
My blog for this evening is going to be stress on teenagers in high school. I'm not going to lie, lately I've been very stressed about activities going on in my life. First of all, I have school everyday, just any other teenager. Along with school though I have poms, which is not considered a sport, but still is a ton of work. Poms is usually everyday, or 3 times a week. I'm not the only one who has after school activities. There's basketball, football, swim, cheerleading, soccer, wrestling, cross country and track. All these activities take up a majority of students after school time. Therefore, when teacher pile on homework, it's really hard to complete all of the work. I know, that when poms was going on, I would stay up until midnight sometimes trying to finish my homework. I believe that we should have a different type of homework system, because with students being very active in sports and other activities, it's hard to handle so much homework. It's a whole lot of pressure, and students may not do well under pressure.

I am born to be an engineer. I love to build things. Sometimes, to relax, I like to go in to my room and create things that I wont, with my legos. I use my imagination to think of how to make it.
I also love to cook which is also like building things. You take the ingredients and make something different out of them. Both my father and grandfather were engineers. I think that I got it from them.
Today i am going to talk about good grades don't come easy. Alot of people see me as smart, just beacasue i get good grades, but thats not beacasue it too easy or i already know what i am learning. I get good grades beacasue i try hard and listen to teachers instead of sleeping or texting. Another reason that i get good grades is beacause i will ask questions if needed, where most kids ask me the question they have instead of asking the teacher. The biggest part is effort, if you don't put time into something you can't expect much to be result of it. People say wow you are smart, but i see it as i remmber what the teacher just told me and i am able to write it down. If you quized me on stuff i did not already know i would try to do it but, i most likely would do bad beacasue i have not learned the material. If you listen and follow directions and practice you will do well on that material, its as simple as that.

Today i rode my horse. I try to see my horse edleast 4 nights a week. I honestly will usually choose my horse over my friends. I say this because I love my horse, and enjoy being with him. He has been in my life since i was 9, and im sure he will be in my life for another 15 years. I feel like i can get away from everyone and everything at the farm. Its peaceful and it gives me time to think about other things than school. My horse is my life. Well, so is tennis. But my horse is #1. I am the fourth generation in my family to have a horse.

Life right now seems rather sad. Just in case some of you don't know, my great grandfather died last Sunday. The very same day I came back from my church retreat actually. Let's just say it wasn't the best news to come home to. Before today it didn't seem to bad but then I saw my grandfather, just laying there, motionless...and it seemed like there was just a force that just washed over me. I couldn't help from crying, and oddly enough I wanted to cry. Tomorrow's going to be worse for I have to go to the funeral. On top of that I'm going to speaking a few words in memory of him (I chose to do this bythe way). Friday i'm going to be so distant from everybody else it's not even funny. I just hope things get better...

Today I would like to talk about a man named Cassius Clay. This man is also known as Muhammad Ali. I am talking about him because he has inspired me most of my life. Many people disliked him when he was the worlds greatest boxer. They disliked him because he was a very cocky outspoken person. Ali said whatever he wanted whenever he wanted and to whoever he wanted to. But he could back almost anything he said up with his unbelievable fighting style. Ali made his fights look effortless. He would swing with such smooth form and paralyze his opponent with extreme force. Every time I go into a serious sports event I think of one of his most famous quotes "I Am The Greatest." This helps me focus and work my hardest to become like him.

I think for my free blog i will talk about the Detroit Tigers season beginning. Today was their first game of spring training. I think that the Tigers were a team who played lower than their ability last year. They were the team picked to win it all, but 162 games was too much for them, and they didnt get into a grrove until August. I think that again this year the Tigers are seen to do well. However, they need some veteran leadershipm to bring them to the playoffs. Lastly, the one thing i like about baseball starting, is that it means WARMTH instead of this 15 degrees we havew been dealing with.
Mr. Kay,
Baseball is a very important thing to me. Baseball is not just a game, its a sport that brings people together and builds friendships. Last year when I played on varsity, I felt really weird hanging out with all of the seniors and juniors. But ironically, we became good friends and we are pretty tight now. I never thought that the upper classman would talk to a punk freshman, but they did. I also built friendships with my grade too. Zakc and I became much closer and I think that baseball is a sport that brings people together along with being competitive.
You can either read all of this, which a conversation, or you can skip to the bottom for the wrap up about it.
Your Choice.

9:37pm
Nick
how so?
9:38pm

9:40pm
Nick

9:40pm
Friend

he pulled it to see where the students came out
9:41pm
Nick
i think, unfortunately its a lot worse than just some wacko walking the halls
9:41pm
Friend
i know, it really freaks me out.
*********************************
this was a conversation me and a Friend Had about how we feel about. in order to protect their privacy, i had edited a couple of things. but as you can see, we had discussed a lot of what ifs, and we had a lot of thoughts propagating in our heads. i think everyone in the school had the same sense of optimistic-ness that it was truly nothing, but the underlying thought was that this guy could easily be doing a lot worse, which truly scares me, and obviously my friend. the part that i had pointed out, and that had hitched a ride a long in my mind, was the fact that no one really knew. NO ONE KNEW. that was seriously screwed up. Obviously we had one clean good solution, being that we need to screen everyone that walks in and out of the building, and closing up all unnecessary doors. i think we need to take serious security measures now! not for the nest incident, or one after that, or in a while. Honestly now, i may or may not be at school tomorrow because i am scared for my life about it.
I hope we found this informational.
And this is why we should have way better security

Today I will talk about friendship. I know it sounds cliche but I really don't know what I would do without them. I have two best friends and the cool thing is that they're completely opposite. One is exactly like me and one is the total opposite. I can tell them anything and can totally be myself around them which is great. I am myself around people all the time but I don't tell just anyone my secrets. Besides the two best friends, I have a lot of other friends and they really make school interesting and fun for me. Friends are a very important part of my life and I'm very glad to have them.
Im not sure if people know this about me but I really like playing basketball. Basketball is pretty much my life, and besides school and my family there is not much else I care about. But Mr. Kay keeps telling me that he thinks there is more to me than just basketball. So instead of basketball I'm going to write about volleyball. I'm my gym class me and will shwartz pretty much own and no one can stop our duo. What happens during gym is me and will try to set the ball to eachother everytime. So far our little strategie has worked but we have been paired up with some pretty bad teammates. This has really brought down the intensity that me and will bring game after game. So what I was thinking was that me and will are just going to try to spike the frickin ball every chance we get. I think that since our team is so flippin bad that this is the only solution. We are now going to be like Kobe and Shaq. We are going to only look out for ourselves and bring a victory to our team. If you look at what Kobe and Shaq did, it was pretty amazing. They won back to back NBA championships. Also during the all-star game this year they were co-MVP's. Only great things can happen now because they bad days are behind us. If you are someone going against our team, I would just watchout because your about to get embarassed. Did u hear me Ruffin...WATCH OUT.
Today there was a fight after school. It was the first fight i have ever seen in my entire life. It was kinda cool, but at the same time scary. I personally think that fighting is stupid. Whats the point of beating someones ass and then getting suspended for 10 days. Just solve out the problem in a better way. Not by hitting someone, or pulling out their hair.
idk if this is right?

I'm going to talk about my day. Well i came to school and my boyfriends head was shaved. You have no idea how mad i was!! i felt like screaming. He looks like some rapist or something haha. But guess I'm gonna have to get used to it. Other than that i had a pretty boring day like usual.After school there was a fight. It was swee. between two girls. But i know if i was on of them i would of done what i did to the other one shes scaryyy!!! lol. Then i came home and slept for like 30 mins. The got up and got ready for my cheer banquet. It lasted for ever! but i got my varsity letter! Finallyyy. At the banquet everyone was talking about that guy that pulled the fire alarms. Kinda creppyyy! I'm not gonna be able to fall asleep tonight. The we rushed home because lost was on! and we were missing it. i was pretty mad! then my mom sowed on my letter on the jacket and then now im doing this. lol.
I think iam going to write about success.To me i think success is the the most important thing in the world. You dont have a future if you dont do something with your life.School prepares as for the real world, it gets so hard but i think everything has a reason. I want to be successful so bad i just feel like iam at a stoping point in my life where i cant get back on the right track. I feel as if i need help to steer me in the right direction. I hope one day i will succeed.

Well, thus far in hockey we have a record of 2-1-1 and play the last round robin play off game in the leauge. This game is a win/tie or go home game that means alot to our team. So far St. Marys has locked down first no matter what but friday night when we play Grosse point North is the game that is for all the marbels. The way the round robin works is there are 6 teams and you play every team once. Making it were you play 5 games. The top two teams with the best records move on to the next round which is semi-finals. So far we have a total of 5 points and the team in which we are competing with has 6. If we are to win our game on friday vs. GPN we would take two points putting us ahead of Woodhaven. If we were to tie we would take only one point which would make us tied with woodheavan. The reason why we would move up in a tie situation is because the first tie breaker is head-to-head. Neither would win this one because in our last game against eachother we tied. The secnd is goals for. We would win thhis tie breaker because we have scored more goals for us than wood heaven has scored for them. Now that i haved explained it you know how important this is.
so whom ever has read this...go to our game!!!!!

Someday, I got a math homework . Since they were just simple calculation problems, it was going easy before the last one. It took me only 30 minutes to do 21 questions, but I spent 2 hours for the last one; I still haven't got answer, and it was 11:30 at night. Then someone of my family came in my room and told me to go to sleep. I explained "I won't go to sleep before I get this freaking problem done." The person said I need to sleep for school on the next day, however, and forced me to turn the light off. I could not understand; how could he attempt to discourage my enthusiasm as a family? Passion is the thing that he should've spurred inside me, as a family member, not discouraged. I was so disappointed. What would you expect me to do something when I grow up if I ain't fond of sacrifising anything for more valuable things?
I so totally did my blog wrong.
For my blog this time I am going to write about my mom. My mom is my hero. She is the only one who is always going to be there for me. I feel I can tell her anything, and she can tell me anything. We are close, we are best friends. My mom is the one person who I trust telling everything to, and I know she wont go and tell the world. I guess by me writing about my mommy you could perceive me as a mommy's girl. =]
I think that every person needs a stable home when they are growing up. It gives you a sence of security, assurance, and happiness. People like me, who didnt have this growing up find themselves missing what they never had. People need to stop putting thier children threw so much stuff and try to atleast shelter them from it. People that have gone threw many things and had less stability tend to have mental problems threwout thier lives. They doubt many things, dont see when people actually care, and many many other problems occur. I wish i had a stable home growing up, but I know the things i went threw made me who i am today. I know if and when i have kids I would want them to have much better than what I had.

Mr. Kay,
I have no excuse except for the fact that I totally forgot yesterday about the blog. But even if i don't get any credit for it i still wanted to get it done.
For my free blog I would like to write about music. This may sound strange but music helps me escape from all the things going on around me. When I want to relax I put my i-pod on and just listen to it. Listening to music before a hockey game helps me get focused on the game and ready to play. Other times it just helps me relax. Depending on how im feeling will depend on what kind of music i want to listen to. I think for a lot of people it can express who they are too. People say you can tell what kind of person you are depending on what kind of music you listen to, but for me that's not true. I like all different kinds, if you look at my i-pod you will see music from slow sad songs all the way to rap.
