End of Year Reflection – Greatest High School Obstacle

My freshman year I moved around a lot and had many difficulties, I almost did not pass ninth grade. I lived with my grandma in Corona, CA, but a week after the year started I dropped out because we were moving, and I didn't return back to school for two months. It upset me that I was falling behind, but I didn't care that much. When we moved to Perris, CA that is when I got into a lot of different drugs, and completely stopped going to school. At the time I did not care at all because all I cared about was the drugs I was on and having fun. One night my aunt had enough kicked me out and I realized I was on my own and I needed to change the direction my life was going. I moved back up to San Diego,CA with my mother. I tried hard to get back into school, but no one would accept me because of my background and it was the end of the year. I was upset for allowing myself to be so irresponsible, so I enrolled myself into Charter School San Diego and there I went four days a week for three hours. I went to summer school and finally I got caught up with my grade. I felt relief that I was able to get caught up in such short time. I've learned that I need to take my education more seriously and not be irresponsible and do drugs. I am happy to say I been clean 1 year 1 month and 21 days and my grades have been better than ever!

Well today in class there was a fight that broke out between two of our fellow class mates over a laptop. There was a substitute teacher because Ms. Priester was at a training today. There was no class directions left on the blog of what we are supposed to be working on. Ms. Raquel told us to just write a free write post to show that we actually worked on classwork. My week has been going great, I am working on my anger issue and I am getting better at controlling it. I haven't gotten angry in a day and a half, so that is a big thing for me. Yesterday the staff Aaron stopped me and told me that today I have to finish my interviewing packet, because two people have asked for me to start working with them already, so that is something to look forward to.

Playwrights Project Play Completion Reflection

Now that my play is completed I feel a sence of relief and total joy. Working on my play these last couple of weeks has been torture because at times I got writer's block and didn't know what else to add in. Throughout the five weeks I have worked hard to remeber everything clearly and fix it appropiatly, but also stick as close to the truth as possible. Yesterday I was really irritated because my play was not printing out right and I did not know how to fix it so it would print correctly. I am nervous about actors coming to our school to preform our plays because my play was an autobiographical and I'm nervous about the preceptions people will get from my play.

SPA Prom 2011

 Prom night was a lot of fun for me mainly because it was a new experience for me. The bus ride seemed like it took a long time, but we finally made it to the Hotel Del Coronado and it was beautiful. When we got there a lot of people were staring at all the students dressed all formal it was kind of funny. We had our prom in the Carousel room and it was gorgeous in there. For dinner we had salads first with dinner rolls then the main course was beef potatoes and some veggies. My date Ivan started choking It was a little scary because they had to do the Heimlich remover on him. After that I took a lot of pictures with my sister and friends. They played good music there, so I was able to get Ms. Robin, Wayne, and Thomas to dance with Ema and I. Over all I think it was a really great prom night and I would love to do it over again.

Week in Rap

 Well I did not go on the field trip last week because I do not have those classes. My weekend with my mom did not go very well, but it's okay because she apologized. Over the weekend I tried to do this homework, but the computers on the residential side is messed up, every website is blocked even Google. Today my day started off okay, but it is starting to turn to a bad day. I am going to try my hardest to make it a good day and steer clear of drama and try to control my anger a lot more. I used to take anger management classes, but my house social worker stopped it and I don't know why. Today I am very temperamental and easily aggravated, so I am going to try and not get around people who make me upset. After school I might go up to the dragon's lounge and finish doing my job application. Maybe that will distract me and make my day a little better.
