3rd+Trimester

JOURNAL ENTRIES
MAY1; Today i came to school wide awake. Usually I'm tired from going to bed so late, but last night I was so bored that i just fell asleep at 9. It was a good thing though because I can keep my eyes open and concentrate more on my work today. I wish I could go to bed that early every night but I usually go somewhere after school and by the time I come home to do my homework, take a shower and eat dinner its already 10 o'clock. But theres only a month and a half left of school so I'll do my best.

MAY4; Today is Sunday and I'm not too excited about going to school tomorrow. My weekend was fun, I went to Dakotahs house with Amanda and we went to Chelo's on Friday and I slept over her house. Then on Saturday, I went to my sisters 21st birthday party. It was about the funnest party I've ever been to. I wish this weekend wuld never end, but it is. I wanted to go to Lake Compounts, but I couldnt pay for it, so i didnt even bother thinking about it. I'm gonna go to the beach on that day with Briana and some other people.

MAY8; Monday's are usually slow and boring but today went by pretty fast. It was so hot in school so I was glad to get out into the fresh air. I went to the park after school, and chilled with a bunch of my friends. After that, I walked home with Lexiie because I dont live too far. We had a common task in English where we had to use a map and schedule, it was very difficult, hopefully she gives us another day to finish.

MAY15; Today is Thursday and I didnt go to school. If I had a scanner I would upload some of my work onto my wikispace but it doesnt work. I could also use my camera but the USB cable broke. It seems like everytime i need to use something, it breaks. But when I dont really NEED it, it always works. Now I'm thirsty so I'm gonna go get a drink.

MAY20; My health class went outside today. We walked to the park, and played basketball and walked around. It was really hot, but atleast we werent sitting in a hot classroom. I got a 90 on a science quiz yesterday that i thought I failed, so I was pretty excited. When I think I did bad on something, I usually do good on it. And I cant study for things because it confuses me, but I usually pass. I'm passing all of my classes now becuase I got a 95 on an essay in English and it brought my grade way up. I also havent been absent or alte alot so im doing good in truency too.

MAY30; Today I didnt go to school because I came home at 12 last night. It was Steph's birthday and she rented a limo so all of her friends could go to Fire and Ice. I never went there before and everyone had the best time. I wish she did it tonight though so I wasnt so tired that I couldnt go to school today. But tonight alot of people are going to Hot Night, a concert with Lil Wayne and other famous rappers/ singers. I wanted to go but I didnt want to ask my mom for money again after she took me shopping for summer clothes. I spent almost 3 hundred dollars on shorts, tank tops, and shoes.

JUNE1; It's finally June. There is only 2 weeks of school left and then Summer '08 ! I'm so excited, this summer is gonna be wicked fun. I like to go to the beach with alot of people and in July the feasts start to come, which are the best part of the whole summer because everyone goes and its like a huge party. I plan on spending most of my summer with Lexiie, Bri, Tyler and more because they mean the most to me. I'm excited about going to The Met next year too, I'm just gonna miss my friends. I wish I gave my work to Mrs. Horton before so I could finish my Wikispace, but I forgot. Thats my weakness when it comes to school work, I'm always worried about something else and I forget about whats really important. Hopefully it doesnt stay that way next year.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS
Next year I'm going to be a freshman at The Met. I'm excited about going but I'm gonna miss my friends in Johnston, hopefully we dont drift apart. But I'm happy that i get to meet new people. I'm scared that I'm gonna hate it there and there will be nothing I can do about it because I made the choice not to stay in Johnston. But everyone else thinks it will be better for me. I'm going to miss everything about Ferri because even though I said I hated it, alot of fun things happened in that school and I met alot of amazing people there. I dont regret staying back because I think it was a gain instead of a loss, but someties I wish I could do my first year in 8th grade all over again. I dont really know what teachers think of me but hopefully they remember me as something good. Some will probably remember me as the loud one that complains about everything, while others will remember me as the quiet girl.
