Leaving TMA

"Thank god its the end of the school year" I've been waiting along time for this and i am very glad to say that I'm ready to graduate. This school year wasn't that interesting I expected more but there was a lot of things to get done such as college applications, projects, and more. I remember the first day of school from the back of my head when we first walked in to having the senior brunch and until now. The years went by so fast i couldn't even keep up because i was so tired, but look at me now about to walk across the stage and get my diploma. What else can I say I know that my mom is very proud of me, family, friends, and my love one. I'm always going to keep them happy by making the right decisions but not only for them myself as well because i love myself more than I love anybody else.

Respect

Some individuals may not respect you for who you are.The only way you gain respect is by giving it back.I love respecting people because it always lift my spirit up and put a smile on my face because i get it back in return.I never can see my self disrespecting someone unless they really getting out of hand.There are disrespectful people out there in the world and i face it by walking right past with my music very loud. I'm not sure why I chose this topic and wrote about it. This was the first topic that came to my mind and I feel like everyone can relate to it. I was very respectful throughout my high school years and I will travel this with me throughout my entire life

Class related responce

My English class finished doing the Mid Summer Night Play and now we are writing essays on how Shakespeare view male and females differently. I found this second semester very interesting because the class was interacting with each other and discussing different ideas about the play even when WT was there. It was a great experience for me because i understand Shakespeare words and play now when i read it on my own i wont have to ask any questions.I wish we would of did a Socratic seminar on men and women on Shakespeare so i can get a better understanding on how to write my essay.

Family!! Free write

Being with my family brings me joy. I'm so happy that i have them, without them i don't know where i would be. I'm doing the best that i can to make them happy and i'm glad to say they are so proud of me. Having one brother, three sisters (including Shalonda) a nephew, a aunt ,and a uncle, with my grandma and mother looking over us makes us a strong family that can survive throughout anything makes me even more happier. This is all i got and all i have and i will do anything to protect my family and too keep us stronger. As a family we struggle sometimes but we always keep our head up while moving forward. When we come together we laugh, cry, and cherish one another. My family is so beautiful and the house we live in is so beautiful and i'm very thankful for each and everyone one of them. R.I.P MOMMY R.I.P GRANDMA I LOVE YOU GUYS AND I WILL SEE YOU SOON!<3

poetry

In my English class we our now focused on poems and how to understand the meaning of poetry. When I first read a poem I didn't like it just because I didn't understand them. I gave up on poetry because I had to keep reading them over and over again. Reading poems was pretty bored until I got the concept of how to break down the meaning of poetry. looking for the overall theme, literary elements has helped me develop my skills from the past and moving forward. without these skills I wouldn't able to tell others about poems I have read and what they are about. I'm glad that our class is focused on this topic because I have a lot to share. I'm really looking forward in my English class this semester. I want to start off strong and end off strong because last semester was really difficult.

My Second Passion

Working with kids is my second passion. The reason why is because it gives me the opportunity to help them become successful in the future and set goals for themselves. As an individual I would like for my kids to experience things I never got the chance to experience. Seeing them grow and learn new things always put a smile on my face. Knowing that my kids come to this program called "Roads To Success" everyday shows me how eager they are to be something in life. My program give kids a safe environment where they can have fun, express themselves, and learn from one another. Having different role models there to push them makes it even better because it gives them the chance to understand that where there for them and to teach them what's wrong and what's right.

R&B

R&B songs is a perfect fit for my personality.As i listen to R&B songs or in other words Rythem and Blues i think about love,poetry,myself and how it set the mood of my day. There are two types of R&B songs which are upbeat songs and slow songs and i love them both. The reason why i love R&B songs the most is because it has no curse words at all. When i go through bad situations and where is no one to talk to i just sit and listen to R&B songs. An example of a up beat R&B song is Latched by Sam Smith FT. Diclousure. Everytime this song comes on i start to sing along and sway side to side. I started to listen to R&B songs when i was thirteen years old. At that time my favorite song was Where I Wanna Be by Donnell Jones. Even though i was young and i didnt know what some of the words really ment i still had a passion for it and it was because of the beat as well.

Passion

Wednesday, October 8, 2014

Every individual has there own passion. There are several passions that I'm interested in such as modeling, dancing, music, and helping other people.  The passion I'm most engaged in is helping other people. In my opinion helping others mean a lot to me. It makes me feel very uplifting and passionate about what I dream on in the future. My future career is counseling other individuals such as young adults and children. As of today I work with a very organized group called Roads To Success  which is also helping me gain my skills to work with others as well as children. As a individual it was hard for me to open out to others. The reason why is because I always kept things  to myself and I was a quite individual. Throughout the summer my job also helped me break a chain that was really hard to break. People took the time to sit down and talk to me and got to know me for who I am as a person and ever since that day I started to get to know more people and people started to open up to me as well. My passions are really important to me and I will try my best to fulfill them in many ways that I can. I also help people in my church which is very important to me. I helped serve food and organize some events. Helping others is a lot fun and  you learn a lot by doing it.  My advice to others is to help people that need to be help and I find that everyone has a helping hand that they can use for some that's important to them.

What i learned in class

Monday, October 27, 2014

           Over the passed weeks me and my peers have learned several things in our English class. The main category we stuck too in class was annotation. We read articles and basically jot down notes on the side about what was going on in the article and wrote paragraph summaries. This category was one of my favorites because it gave me a better understanding of what the article is about. I believe that it's best to annotate because it helps you think more and ask questions and helps you learn new things as you read the article. The process of annotating was easy during class time because it wasn't my first. I annotated since I was in fifth grade in elementary school. Instead of writing notes on sticky notes we now write notes on our own articles that we read. Without annotating some individuals will have a hard understanding of what the article might be about and instead of reading the text over and over again you can just re-read your note and answer questions faster.

Me

  As a individual growing up was really hard for me. There were so many relatives and friends that pushed me and help me develop in many different ways. Im very respectful to those who respect me and care for me as well as they do. In my opinion it's best that you work very hard to achieve the goals that you are striving for so that other individuals can look up to you and say when I grow up I want to be just like you. Starting from my childhood going into my adulthood seem a little difficult but as i move forward  most of my accomplishments are reached to a point were I can time myself and stay organize. When obstacles try to stop me from reaching my goal I make sure that I keep me head up stay focus and never give up. As a individual I'm patient, charming,  and kind its very hard for me to break out of my personality and the reason why is because I like to sit back and observe things before I reach out to anything. As a student i like to engage in activities and play a major role in groups meaning as writing, reading, or researching if it's any job you need me to do I will get right into it without any hesitation. I'm a very hard worker I stay on task all the time and get my work done . If any individual needs help I will always be there helping hand.
