What am I Grateful For?

     It's almost Thanksgiving, and there are so many thing this year that I am grateful for. One of the things I am most grateful for are my friends, this year has been really tough already and without my friends I don't know how I would be able to pull through. My friends have been there for me through everything, well the ones who actually were my friends. My best friend, Emily, is someone who has helped me through honestly everything since the day I met her. I can not be more grateful to have her,  and I wouldn't trade her for anything in the world. She's not only like my best friend, she's also like my sister. I can't be more grateful for the friends I have right now, and I'm glad I have them.

Election Reflection

My overall thoughts about the election in general is that it was very intense and very unpredictable. I was up all night watching the election, I was tired but I wanted to stay up because the election was so intense. Both beliefs and thoughts were very different between the two candidates, and throughout the entire run, the candidates were at each other's throats most of the time. When running for a president, some things might be said about the other candidate. That's just the way it is. All in all, the election was very intense and intriguing, although I have to say I didn't like the way it ended.  My thoughts about the election is I didn't like the way it ended. It really had me thinking about the society, and how many people actually were rooting for someone to be our leader who has said what he said and done what he's done. I'm not trying to be bias, but come on. Really? Someone like Donald Trump is not fit to be our president, he is the bias one here. W...

"Flyaway" by Lucy Christopher

Image
     The book "Flyaway" by Lucy Christopher, is one of my favorite books so far this year. I haven't read many books this year, but with this book I just couldn't abandon it. Every time I thought something good was gonna happen for them in the book, another plot twist would happen. Usually, with things like this, I would get upset because I wouldn't want every single thing being ruined, but the plot twists just kept on making the book even better. This book is nothing like I read before, it had so many emotions and so many elements to it. Even though this book had a lot of things going on, I could still relate to it in so many ways. I think that's why I fell in love with it. Even in the beginning, the book just instantly had me hooked by a thread. As I continued to read, the thread became thicker along for my interest in it.      Moving on from that, I'm gonna start talking about the book and what it's about. In the beginning, everything was fine, th...

Blogs About Blogs

     The blogging tip I chose was "be factual." Sometimes when I am writing, I have the temptation to extend something or make up a story to make the blog better for the audience. Blogging is supposed to be about actual things, so that you could have an outlet for your writing. You should be telling things that really happened, tell people experiences you've had, not make up stories because you think  your stories will be more entertaining or will attract more people to come and read your writing. All in all, always     One other blogging tip I chose was to use images. When you include images, it makes your blogs more fun. From experience, adding images really does help either make your blog more fun or help your audience understand the blog more. One important thing to always remember when adding images, always make sure the image relates back to the topic of which you are speaking of. Overall, adding pictures does benefit to your blogs but only if you'r...

Where Have I Been

     All my life I've been in one place, and that was Berwyn. Berwyn is my home, but I also don't wanna be here my whole life. When I grow up, after college of course, I want to be able to travel the world. If you read my other blog, you probably know that one of my goals is to be a surgeon and to have a family. One goal that was just discovered is that I do want to be able to travel the world, and maybe even be a photographer. The world is such a beautiful place, and being able travel the world and go to the most beautiful places, and to take beautiful pictures of them would just be a great future. Back to what I was saying before, I would love to go anywhere, I just don't want to be in this one place my whole life, I want to travel and take beautiful pictures of beautiful sights, like the ones we see in the magazines or the advertisements. All in all, I want to travel anywhere.

Summer Reading Blog- Papertowns: Conflict (2)

     The book I chose to read for this assignment was "Paper Towns", written by John Green. There were many conflicts throughout the entire book, as a whole. Some were solved, however some were not. The main conflict was Margo running away, basically meaning she was missing. Margo leaving was like a trickle effect, because when she left everything else went horribly wrong.     As I said in the first paragraph, the main problem was that Margo was gone (missing). This conflict was both external and internal. The reason it was internal was because of Quentin. He was feeling so many emotions because of the fact that he was in love with her, and she was missing. He was worried, scared, frustrated, sad, and some grief. He wanted to find her so badly because he wanted her back, and he wanted to know that she wasn't dead. The reason it was external is because they had to do a lot of researching, investigating, and going to other places (that were dangerous to explore)...

Where I See Myself In 10 Years

What are your personal goals?       One of my biggest personal goals is to be a surgeon. Just the thought of being able to actually say "I saved someone's life today" is probably one of the biggest things I was in my future. I know it takes a lot of hard work, effort, dedication, and time but I would be ready to do anything and everything I would have to do, just to be able to say "I saved someone's life today."       One of my other goals is to go to a really good college, which is also big in the medical field. For example, Loyalo is a really good school which is also big in the medical/surgeon department. That might be a really hard school to get into, but I am willing to really try for this. It's one of my biggest goals to go to a great college, get a college degree, and start to really work in the medical field. Going to a good college which is really big in the medical field, would bring me one step closer to my goal of being a surgeon.   ...
