Passion



               Walking into the art room in the morning, but Mrs. Jordan is not there yet, though I think she is in the office. I set my bag down by the table that is going to be empty, and I see Austin’s bag is there, but he is not in the room. Then, I think maybe he is in the bathroom or had to run an errand to ask a teacher something. I take a quick smell of the room for no reason at all and it smells like the same old smell, paint, and other art supplies. Then, Austin walks in, and Mrs. Jordan walks in shortly after. I only ever go down to the art room on days the fourth graders have art. They come about 8:30 on every Tuesday and Thursday.
They have given me the nickname of Sassy, but I have no idea why, but it makes me happy when I get to see them. I noticed that I always ask Mrs. Jordan if I can teach them for the day, but sadly she always says no. Though, today I got to read to them, and knowing I didn’t do my reading for my own book, I really wanted to read that book to them. So, that day I found out I wanted to be a teacher because I am motivated to read when I am reading to others, I love helping my peers or other students with schoolwork, and I love being in the front and center of the room. I have wanted to be a teacher ever since that day, though I have thought about being a teacher before that, that day confirmed me wanting to be a teacher. Ever since, I have wanted to babysit as much as I could by my mom does not trust me yet. I do not know why she does not, but I help when my sister is busy then I get to babysit a little bit.
I love helping others with homework. For example, I have a friend that I always help him with his homework. It is always motivating when I get to help others with problems, schoolwork, and just mainly anything. I am never motivated to do my work and whenever I am helping someone else, I am motivated to help them do their homework. So, for example, I am never motivated to read, but when I am reading to someone, I am very motivated. I love partnering up to because I usually partner up with someone good if I do not understand it. Unless I understand it good then I pick someone that I think is struggling with the work and I help them understand.
As you have probably found out by reading all that being a teacher is a huge passion of mine. I could talk or write so much more about how much I want to be one. Though there is not enough time in a day for me to do that. I hope I will have a chance to be a teacher. I love helping others out, through anything really, problems, schoolwork, etc. Out of everything, I have learned that I am an amazing listener. So, one of my huge passions is being a teacher, I want to inspire kids one of these days.

Family Celebrations

My family hasn't really celebrated much. I guess we have really only celebrated Halloween, Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, and The Forth of July.
One Christmas eve we go to my Grandma Vi's house. One Christmas we go to my grandma Pat's house. Then all the other Christmases are usually on different days every year. For my Grandma Vi's we usually just get her a present and no one else. During my Grandma Pat's we do the same just for her. Then for my Grandma Codi's and Grandma Sheri's (two different ones) we do a hat pulling and what ever name we get we buy things for them.
Then for Halloween we usually go trick or treating. I went for my last year this year because I had to take my cousin up to the doors. So the next years I would pass out candy at my Uncle Paul's house.
For Easter, we go to families houses for a huge dinner or lunch. Then we hide candy for the little ones. My Grandma Sheri buys us small gifts though. She is the only one who does that.
For Thanks giving we have a lot of parties. We go up to my Grandma Codi's and Papi's house for a lunch. Then we eat food with my Grandma Wendy and Grandpa Bill. We also have a huge dinner at my Grandma Sheri's.
The Fourth of July we just go see fireworks. We light our own sometimes too. I love the big bangs, but they scare me sometimes. My brother and Step-dad have Roman Candle fights. When we do light fireworks, we can't light to many at out house because our horses freak out at the loud bangs.

Anything Can Ruin Someones Day Even Something Small


One day, a new girl came to Georgetown Junior High. Her name was Marley, and she is also wild and active. Wolves where her favorite animal; she lives on a farm too. Soothing, calm waters of the ocean is where she loves to collect seashells as a hobby. One day, she showed up to school all sad, and no one could figure out why she was not excited and exuberant as always. After a few hours of school, everyone found out that some immature boys in her grade were picking on her and not being so nice. She didn't let it bother her like usually, until someone said that she should lose the farm act and be normal like all the other girls. So, after school her friends, girls and guys, took her out to eat at the kebab cafe in town. Still, that did not cheer her up at all, and they tried their hardest, so they went skiing next, because Marley loves skiing. As it did before it did not cheer her up. So, they all went to get their nails done, even the boys to see if they could get her to laugh. Just as they tried other things before it did not work. They all had to go home, and they all hoped she would be better by the next day. The girls had a Basketball the game next day, and Marley plays on the basketball team. She played as good as she usually does and hitting her threes like she does on her good days. They took home the win, but at the end of the game she still never smiled or even seemed happy. The next day she came back as her usually self. Happy, Energetic like usually, and no one knew why. Then, it started spreading around that her crush asked her out and she said yes. The day of her being happy again, her boyfriend took her out to get ice cream. For a very long time she stayed herself and never let anything bother her again, because her boyfriend took care of the boys that were jerks to her.

Veterans essay

Veterans risk their lives every day for us; they even risked being injured for us. Their lives could change at any point in time during the war. “Mothers, sisters, fathers, brothers, and grandparents can go to sleep at night without worrying,” said Greg Blackburn. He also said, “A conflict is when two people throw stones at each other and a war is when two people shoot each other.” It is important to honor
veterans every day and not just once a year because they serve us every day, not just one day a year.
My grandpa Bill was in the Vietnam, but some of the others he fought with might know him as William Houghtby. My grandpa was a welder for the core of engineers. He said it was hot, humid, very noisy, and rainy. It would rain for 20 days in a row it was called monsoon season, lots of bugs worse than here in the summertime, and guns, bombs, helicopters going off at night. He was in a couple of fights with a couple of guys. He got to shoot the gun a couple of time at the people who he thought was the enemy because they
were on the other side of the fence, and the other side of the fence was open range. He was just there more less having fun, he didn’t do much because there wasn’t much going on during the end of the war, 70 or 71. He was only 18 and he was fighting and/or helping. He hauled heavy machinery back and forth between bases; they carried them on cattle trailer but it hauled humans and had little windows so they could see out. “We should have stayed and won the war because we lost 50,000 thousand people and in my opinion it was like a waste for those people to lose their lives because we didn’t win the war,” is a quote said by my grandpa. He also said all the vets were treated terribly when they got home compared to how we treat them now. Ever since the Vietnam we have started treating veterans a lot better than we did before.
So, I am so thankful for my grandpa and many other veterans that served for our country. I thank you so much for all the ones who died or risked their lives. I have met many veterans and some of the veterans I didn’t even know they were veterans at first. Once I found out they were veterans I thanked them for their service. It is respected to show your thanks towards veterans, so I encourage you to do the same.

Beautiful Sites Around Our Town

 I chose this picture because the color of the light orange and yellow leaves are mixing together just sets my mind for the mood. When the colors are mixed together you mainly see yellow. The leaves are falling soon, and they are changing colors and I love to take pictures like this because of that reason.












I chose this picture basically for the same reason as the top one. I love when the green and the orange mixes together in the leaves. I am even sure I saw a leave half green and half orange, as if it was in the middle.


















This is my classmate's cat, and it is so cute in my opinion. I chose it because the light hit the cat just right in the picture. Also, the cat is not smack dab in the middle like most of the objects in almost all my pictures.

Don't Get Sued!

Something that surprised me is anyone can sue you for using their picture and you have to ask them if it is okay to use is. I learned that even if you credit them they can still sue you. I am not going to use Google images so freely now because I do not want to be sued.

Memes

We have been working with run-on sentences, and different ways to avoid writing them. Our teacher asked us to create three different memes; each containing a sentence that shows a different way to avoid run-ons. Each meme's sentence must connect to the meme.

Some Things To Know About Me



When I think of people, I like them to be creative, have a fun personality, and they are not judge or rude. Like I get judge a lot for the way I am, and no one really knows me for me, only a few do. Mostly people talk to me once or twice and are like “Yea she’s not a good person. She is not even funny,” and they go on and on about how not to be friends with me. Also, I like how a person doesn’t care about looks either or if a person looks on the inside of a person. Making conversation is even hard for me, and when I can't make it, I make it awkward. Honestly, I'm not even much of a people person because of that reason.

Mainly, I am with my horses, reading, or even playing sports. Horses, dogs, and what people are thinking or what's going through their mind is what interest me the most and what I am usually curious about. Usually, I am with my horses learning how to sit in my seat. Even my dream vacation is going to Tennessee, because it is the home of country music, I would bring my horses, and maybe even meet Lane Hardy. Because I play sports and ride horses in my free time, I am decently good at riding horses and pretty good at volleyball I would say.

Interesting, amazing extra facts about me are wanting to be a teacher when I get older, because I love little kids, I love to babysit kids a lot, and when I read to other people or help other people it motivates me to want to do it better. Because I like scary things and ghosts, I would probably live in a haunted house. Smart, creative the person inspires me the most is Maliah Grenoble, because she is skinny, very athletic, pretty, crazy smart, and the most creative person I know. She is not even judgy or rude to people she usually very welcoming or sees the best in people and gives the best advice.
