New Semester Reflection

After the first semester of high school, I have learned a great deal of valuable information that I can use in the spring to help me. One thing that I learned is that the earlier I do work, the better I will feel. Whenever i procrastinate, I always wait until the last minute to do whatever it is I am assigned. When I did this, I always felt stressed in comparison to when I just got it over with. So in this upcoming second semester, I will try to get all of my work done over a reasonable amount of time.

In the second semester, some of my goals are to study more and be more organized. In the past semester, I studied for tests, however, I wished I would have studied more because I got points off for simple mistakes. So this year, I will study for tests more thoroughly. Also, this year I would like to be more organized with my school work. Last semester, I wouldn’t write everything down, so i would miss little assignments that would negatively impact my grade. So this year, if I am more organized, it can only hel

Human Nature

       I believe that humans are fundamentally good, but everyone is different. Everyone starts out good, but they are then confronted with decisions that shape what they are truly like.  I believe this because I have seen people from different backgrounds, parents, and parts of the world. For example, I went back to Tyler, TX, where I lived before here, and I saw how much all of my friends had changed from when we were kids and how different they were from my friends who grew up in Baton Rouge. Growing up in different environments changes the way people think and act.        Even though I think people are fundamentally good, I believe that people have free will to compliment or change that. Everyone in the world is flawed in someway, and that is caused by peoples decisions. Those decisions can lead to changes in judgement. So, if someones judgement is changed, that may change the way they view and feel about different situations. But, peop...

Thanksgiving Break

        During my thanksgiving break, the first thing I did was go to drivers ed. It felt just like school because I would have to get up early and I wouldn't get home until four. Although the class itself was boring, my friend Katherine was also there, so that made it much better. Once we were done with class, we would go to the mall or Perkins Rowe. Four days later, we were done with the class, and we could finally relax.           On thanksgiving day, I woke up and watched the parade with my family. This is something I've done ever since I was little. Our thanksgiving meal didn't take that much time because it was just me, my parents, and my sister who were eating at our house. This year was very different because all of my other Thanksgivings were with my whole family, so it was nice to have a small meal with just us four. Once the holiday had passed, I spent time with my friends and took time to relax.

Concert

       This summer, my family and I went on a huge road trip to North Carolina and Washington DC. While we were in the car, we always listened to John Mayer's new album, the Search for Everything. As we listened to it more and more, my whole family started to really love it, and we associated it with our summer. We would listen to it in the car, at cook outs, and just around the house.        As our summer came to an end, my mom asked us if we wanted to go to his concert. I wasn't super excited about it because it was the night before orientation day, so I decided not to go. School was nearing and my sister, Emily, was so excited for the concert, but I didn't want summer to end. The day before orientation day, I went to go get a hair cut, and when I was done it was around 4 pm. My mom asked my on the way home, "Do you want to go to the John Mayer concert?" I was so confused because my sister was about to leave in thirty minutes, and I didn't kno...
