progress report

I got my progress report today i am so happy with the results of the report. I got all A's and B's (5 A's and three B's). I found out that my best friend just got the job interview he's been looking forward to for years, i am very happy for him! My mother celebrated her birthday yesterday and today. I can tell she was happy about the gifts we gave her, she said it was the thought that counted instead of the gift. I know it made her proud deep down inside for us to think about her birthday and to make her feel special and important. I can really say i am happy with the family and friends god has placed in my life.

esssay time

Now i have to focus on my essays (applying for college), SAT's, and HW for school. It is a lot of writing but i believe in myself i can do it, and to the best of my ability. I just finish applying to the University of Baltimore and typing up my posts for English.

faith

I have faith that this year will get better and that everything will get better as time goes on. I got news from my best friend that he wants to go off to the navy first my brother now my best friend, who's next? I am exhausted who knew twisting dreads would be so tiring. I have to finish reading and completing my goals, which is  a whiles away. I used to think that i had no purpose in life, and nothing good can come of my life; whenever i experienced 1something bad and that i hadn't wanted to happen. My new outlook for today or at-least the rest of this week is to use, and have faith.

Ready to get ahead of the game

I think it is time i forget what happened this month even though its hard i know i can! I am happy there's no school tomorrow although  I am ready to catch up in homework, my blogs, and my reading assignment. This is an important time off and i am going try to prioritize my time, something that i don't do very often!




I think that every thing that has happened i destined to prepare me for what is to come in the future. Its hard to be mad or frustrated when your normally a happy person all the time! I have lots of people that have started to look forward to my smile everyday, and polite hellos to warm up their day. I've realized not being popular and a part of the crowd is an great giftedness or benefactor to my success. I've learned how to act as my own person and not care what anyone thinks of me. Its my new attitude towards life. This leaves me thinking about one of my favorite poems, that Ms. Duka mentioned today in class by Robert Frost "The Road Not Taken", and how i have been switching friends every year since middle school because every crowd wasn't the right crowd. I ad learn this the hard way, it took me some time but Ive learned who to hang around and consider my friends/peers. I was very glad to be reminded of how far i have traveled so far down the right path i hope to continue.

faith

I was confirmed in church today the message, the preacher came from Hebrews 11:1,6. It was talking about faith is the substance of things hoped for and evidence of things not seen. How ironic for the preacher to preach that considering the book we are reading in AVID "A hope in the unseen". It showed me that i need to have hope in the unseen!

everthing has a reason!!

Had a talk with my mother about my college choices for the first time. It felt good to finally talk to her about my goals, aspirations, my major choice, and my future. I got emailed some free applications from some universities that i am interested in. I feel bad about not blogging on Thursday and Friday but my i pod was stolen in one of the AVID classes and i was highly upset about it because it was a birthday gift from my older sister for my sixteenth birthday. It was also my only way to post pictures on my blog for my grade. I am shamed that i cant trust my fellow AVID classmates and that someone would stoop to a lower level to take it.

Even though my i pod was taken i have good  news i am going to be apart of  Towson University High School Choir. Even through everything that went wrong this week pass i am going to stay positive because no one can make me or break me! God is my strength and he always has my back when other go up against me and try to hurt me. I miss my grandpa and Mrs. Diane they would know what to tell me! R.I.P.! Right now all i can do is pray and ask god for his help because no else can help me in my situation!

a great but horrific day

today was an great day in school, i worked on my house board for Prometheus, and i found out i am going to be in the Towson University High School choir, and tryout for the Baltimore county honors choir. The day was also horrible because i don't know where my i pod is, but i don't have time to let that bother me. I am really anxious to see how the avid induction is going to go with this years twist. I cant wait to see how each of the houses with their character traits came up with their boards and put their ideas and thoughts together.
