Espaol Q3_BM

I listed out some of the things I'd do in a day, and put them in order form waking up to having lunch, which is half way through the day. 

Well, after doing this project I learned that being able to speak the basic words of a daily routine from waking up to sleeping and all that in between in spanish. And that can seriously benefit me in the future, when something comes along and is somehow relevant to it.  

My final product isn't all that though. I could've done some more work and added more creativity to it. 

If I could do this all over again, I'd consider on adding the creativities, and some humor to it. 

The project was tolerable, it wasn't that big of a pain. Overall I was ok with this. 

Blind

​I went to the eye doctor today. My new contact prescription is -5.50. I did the math, and this means I can see clearly for 18 centimeters in front of me without correction. It's a good thing for glasses and contacts because nothing interesting happens within 18 centimeters of my face. 

Why do we make it seem like high school is the end of the world?


Why are putting High School on a pedestal?

Letting this "bitch stole my man" drama cloud your judgment

When truth be told this boy isn't even worth one drop of the perspiration rolling down your forehead

 

Why are putting High School on a pedestal?

Letting these childish labels like jock and nerd mess with your head

When you know they don't control your future

Knowing that one day you might see Johnny begging you for a dollar

And your thinking "Dang, I thought he was gonna be a baller."

 

Why are putting High School on a pedestal?

Your following the head cheerleader so you can get a status boost

While everybody knows in the real world that

Coattail riders have little self worth

 

So why are you putting High School on a pedestal?

Knowing that it’s just a 4 year phase

An obstacle in your way of

Living up to your full potential

 

So dry your tears

Dust yourself off

Stop being a puppet

And just be yourself

 

And realize that everything is gonna be ok

As long as you realize that High School doesn’t last forever

That statuses fade away

And remember to keep High School off that pedestal

Because it’s not even worth looking up to

 

 

 

 

 

Manders reflexion forgot to do

This project was really helpful for me. Yes I made some mistakes but I learned so much more spanish did Then I did before doing this Project. It was really fun and really interesting. Like I said thier is a few mistakes in my final product but I believe it was pretty good. I think I will get a B. It's not perfect because I will admitt I procastinate but I think I turned out really well and funny.

When you left my heart fell apart

There was no sunshine, stars - there was no reason to stay alive.

I wish I could go back in time, and tell you everything you meant to me.

There is nothing I can do now, but cry at nights when I close my eyes and see your face. 

I don't know if you were a bad man or not.

All I know is that if I could go back in time, I would spend more time with you.

Well, I guess all I wanted to say is that I'll always love you dad.

Daily story- March 2

This weekend I got to see my friend Kirstin, who is a sophmore at Regent University. She and her boyfriend Joel got engaged this fall and this was the first time I'd seen her since. She was telling everybody about how they met- it's the most adorable story ever.
Kirstin had just started her freshman year at college and she went to an "ice cream social" with her friends. They were all standing around talking when this guy walks up, Joel. He knows everybody but Kirstin and gives them all hugs. Kirstin jokingly says, "what, I don't get a hug??" and Joel makes this weird/awkward face and just kind of walks away. Later that evening, Kirstin is in her room and somebody knocks on her door. She opens it up to see Joel standing there. He goes, "Your Phillies suck." She lets him in and they argue for hours and hours. And now they're going to be married. I guess it's not the most glamorous love-at-first-sight type of story but I love it. It's like, he's so shy when he first sees her that he can't even say anything and runs away, but then he can't stand it that he missed his chance so he's going nuts trying to think of any excuse to talk to her and the only thing he can come up with is that she's from Philadelphia, so she must like the Phillies...

Pneumonia

So today was my first day back at SLA, and it was quite an interesting welcome back. I currently have an pneumonia, and I had to tell everyone this when they ask why I haven't been in. The reactions I got people vary as I told them when I was out. There was the cautious ones that said " I miss you and I hope you get better from a far." Then there's the others who gave me a hug and wish me a speedy recovery. I don't know what I expected. It went quite well though. I really wish to  get better soon, this ammonia thing is no joke. I just want to be healtjy again. 

Morning Routine

Every morning I wake up at 6. It's only a 30 minute commute from my house to school, but I don't like to rush in the morning, so I get up extra early. After I eat my daily slice of bread ( no butter, no jelly, not toasted) and change into my outfit, and do my hair, I then walk out the door around 7:00 and wait for the 5 bus, which comes at 7:05 am. Shortly after my 10 minute bus ride on the 5 I then catch another bus, the 48, which comes at 7:15. This is about a 15-20 minute bus ride and I arrive to school around 7:30-7:40ish. I like arriving at that time because I do most of my homework in the morning at school. I have a very planned out morning schedule, however this if often disturbed by my mom. Who always asks me to wait for her. I want to wait for her, but she always takes so long to get ready, and throws my morning schedule off. I hate that. Despite my schedule being ruined I always wait for her. I used to be pissy by my morning schedule being thrown off by her, but I finally accepted it. I no longer care about my morning schedule being ruined. It took me 3 years to be okay with that, but at least now I am.  I think it's because I know next year there will be no more morning commutes with her and I'm just trying to savor the moment now.

she told me " you stink " im sixteen , so im offended


i went home, with the same intentions everyday.

knock on the door hard, yell through the mailbox to yell at my brother to let me in, run upstairs, hang my coat in my closet , start up the stupid laptop with the bad battery, and finally TAKE OFF MY TIGHT JEANS.

now on a side note, taking off my jeans is one of my favorite things to do in the world. i literally feel free. i bet both my legs and thighs inhale and exhale as soon as i unbutton.  from 7:30 am to 4:15 i suffocated my legs, and thats exactly how i feel .
after doing the routine, i decided to jump in my moms bed. she makes everything difficult so the reason why i was in her bed in the first place was because she was making me call La salle University.
so im on the phone and the classical music is playing for what feels like 85 minutes , and im remixing it with "buy you a drank" by t-pain , meanwhile my mother is flipping through the channels , debating on whether or not she should watch what she calls " gillys"
(gilmore girls) what a stupid $%@! name right?
 THEN  FINALLY some lady from the admissions office answers the phone.
and my mom burst out with " you stink patricia"
 im like " huh " ,
then i switch to a more curious face and she repeats herself...."you stink little girl,you smell like the outside"

since i was little ive been trying to figure out what the "outside" smells like but i end up pushing my thoughts aside and i get defensive and , say " well you smell like the inside"

she goes on to say i smell like old people, like i haven't washed in a few weeks
now
 for one: she didnt have to bring old people into this because now she offending somebodies grandmom or grandpop that we dont even know.

for two: this is my mother, im 16, and this is usually the talk little 12 year old boys have with there mothers after a sweaty game of some sport

i dont immediately jump in the shower at all, i let whatever smell i was walking around with linger in her room, and seep in her bed since she had so much against the "outside smell"

after a few hours , maybe 2 hours . i jump in the shower and im scrubbin my black knees ALL CRAZAAAAYYY because prom daisy duke season is approaching

im just squirting and squirting this  pink stuff onto my washcloth .  scrubbing and slathering.....i take a second to look at the bottle because it smells so good , and
it reads

"suave strawberry shampoo" -_-

 now i dont know whether to be mad at the fact that i just washed up in shampoo or to be happy that smell like i just used my mothers favorite shampoo to wash my gluteus maximus:)


Use your imagination

They stood looking up at the building in front of them, three bodybuilder types, all wearing skullies. She gazed at the three men wondering what could possible holding their attention for so long.  No, the key to their salvation wasn't up there; she was sure of it.  She felt like an outsider, wanting to be in on their plan.  Then it came to her: they were going to rob the building.  It was their possible escape route that transfixed them.  They would go in the back gate, being sure to look as natural as possible for working class men in a mansion.  They would start in the kitchen, emptying every bottle of balsamic and extra virgin.  It was expensive stuff from what she had been told.  They would then scurry into the living room, quickly disconnecting the flatscreen and rolling the Yamaha straight through the door.  Of course, they wouldn't go near the bedroom, that would be too obvious.  Instead, they would find the bathroom and fantasize about the money they would make from the fine silk robes and extra plush towels inside.  Yes, it would be the perfect robbery, she thought.  She let her mind return to the men standing in front of her.  Now, with their backs turned, she could see the words on their matching hoodies: Mike's Roofing Specialists.  Well, that makes more sense anyway, she thought, trying to console her now bruised ego
