The Greatest Risk, is Not Taking One

By Anonymous -
     The title of this blog, is one of my favorite quotes. Once I read it, I sat down and just took a minute to analyze it. I knew from the moment I read it, that I would really relate to it. There are moments in everyone's life, where they question whether to do something or not. I know I do. For me, I'm more of a shy person, so I don't take the risk. Yet, I always wonder what would have happened if I had actually taken that risk. I will always regret not taking the risks in the past, because what if it could have changed my life in a completely different way? You see, taking a risk is something you should always do. If it is something you might be so scared of, take a moment, and look at the pros and cons. That's what I do. In the end, I always look at the cons even though there might have been more pros. I always find a way or a reason on NOT to do something, don't be like me. If I learned to take a risk, so should you.

I think my favorite part of the book & the show, was when Clay finally got to his tape. It was so touching, and not what anyone would have expected.       This book is basically all about a girl named Hannah Baker. When Hannah moved to this new place, she didn't have it tough. Not until she met Justin Foley. Justin was the turning point in her entire life. After weeks of living there, she had it tough. She had no friends, no one liked her, everyone th

My Name

By Anonymous -
     My name is pretty unique. Although, it has been mispronounced from time to time. The day I was born, my parents decided to name me "Sumar." The reason my name is unique is not because of the way it is pronounced, but the way it is spelled. I'm pretty sure you guys all think it's pronounced like "su-mar." The funny thing is, my name is supposed to be pronounced "summer" like the season, and also spelled like the season. I guess when I was born, there was a miscommunication and my name was spelled incorrectly on my birth certificate. Although it causes a lot of mix-ups, it's a funny story to tell. It's also from an Arabic origin (or Arabic root) which is pretty cool.
