My Earliest Memory

The earliest memory that I can remember was from when I was around 6 i think. It was on a vacation to Florida and we rented a sailboat for the day. The part I remember most is the part when I was aloud to drive but other than that, I can't remember much else of the trip. I'm not sure why that memory is so prominent but it is and hopefully the only reason I remember it is because isn't because I see the picture a lot.

Pets

I have two dogs name Max and Sammy. They are both mixes between a golden retriever and a minature poodle, a.k.a a goldendoodle. I love my dogs and couldn't imagine not having them.

The best part of Thanksgiving...

To me, the best part of Thanksgiving is the food. Because only my grandma comes over, who I see everyday, family isn't the best part. If the rest of my family did fly to spend Thanksgiving with us it might be another story but because they don't, its not.

Journal Entry 20

Last night sucked. Right after school I had soccer practice and all we did was conditioning and sprints. Then right after that, I had to go to therapy for my hand for an hour, which is one of the most boring things ever, and then finally, I had to rush home and get ready for my club soccer practice. By then I was beat and to my luck, all we were doing was conditioning just like my school practice. When I finally got home at 9:30, I still had to do my homework and eat and everything else. I didn't end up going to sleep until 12:30, and I'm so tired today.

Journal Entry 19

Over the three day weekend I was pretty busy. On top of a soccer tournament, we had some family in town so it was non-stop driving. It felt like the only time we were at home was at night and even that wasn't very long because I ended up having to wake up at around 6 every morning for soccer. Thankfully they left yesterday morning and after soccer practice I was able to crash. I think I fell asleep at around 7 and didn't wake up until this morning.

Letter to Teacher

Dear Teacher,
I feel your class is enjoyable and reasonable for the most part but I really don't like when you make us copy down notes for multiple days in a row. I like the fact that we can print them out and not have to take them but it isn't always that easy to remember. Also, I enjoy more hands on learning than just watching you work stuff out at the whiteboard. You should get the rest of the class more involved and on projects, you should give us more time than a few days, especially on the ones that involve writing essays. Another thing is that because you don't take grades on the homework, I have less of an influence to do it which respectively shows on my test scores. I was hoping that we might be able to work something out and that you actually take the time to think about this. Thank you for your time.
Your Student,
Alex

My Letter Experience

I wasn't here when we wrote a letter to our teachers so I'm can't say much about my experience.

Paper Clip

1 hold papers together
2 poke stuff
3 make an S
4 amuse yourself in class
5 necklace
6 put a hole through something
7 fling stuff
8 weapon



I think its a good way to see what options you have but I think you should be able to choose your classes that you want to take. Maybe you're extremely good at math and the test says you should be placed in an advanced math class but you don't like math so you choose to take the regular.



I can be engaging in class by giving the teacher my full attention at all time and participate as much as possible.

GIF Project

I thought the GIF project was pretty easy. It was a bit confusing getting in to but after that it was fine. I didn't like how if you added a new layer to put in a new frame it showed up on every frame until you made it invisible.

Journal Entry 18

Friday night I went to the football game and although it wasn't as exciting to watch as the last one, it was definitely a good outcome. We ended up killing them. On Saturday I was pretty bummed when I had to wake up at 6:30 for soccer practice at 8. Other than that I didn't do much until I went to my friends house that night. I ended up sleeping over and on Sunday morning we went out to breakfast at 5 & Diner. The rest of my Sunday was filled with homework basically. Fun, right?

Journal Entry 17

This week has been really busy. I've finally started playing soccer again for my club team and school try outs have just started. I've been having tryouts from 2:45 to 5 and then going home, just to get ready for cluv try outs from 7 to 9. Also, I found out I have Osgoodslaughters or whatever it is called.

If I could change the world...

If I could change one thing in the world it would be the economy. I would make it so that the U.S. wasn't in debt anymore, therefore healing our economy. Then, times wouldn't be so rough and millions of people wouldn't be unemployed.
