My Life as of Today and for the Weekend...

I am currently sitting in my cousin Dan's apartment with my family and his friends. We left right after school (well, as soon as we could) to arrive in Ann Arbor by 7:00 when the Michigan Wrestling meet began. I enjoyed it a lot and got to watch my cousin, Dan Yates, his friends, Justin and Brandon Zeerip, and other teemates wrestle at the meet. Michigan ended up defeating the other team, Purdue, with a final score of 28-14. It was a great experience to be able to watch a college meet and was especially enjoyable being able to watch my cousin wrestle once again since I haven't been able to do so since his senior year in high school in 2009. My family and I are spending the night at his apartment tonight and will go tomorrow to my sisters apartment at Grand Valley State University. We won't be home until Sunday, which worries me somewhat and means it will be harder for me to get my homework and studying done for the weekend.
Since we have our 1984 (book 2) quiz Monday, our Portfolio Resumes due Tuesday and our Op-Ed Essay rough drafts due Friday, I have a feeling it will be another busy week for me. I will definitely have to start working on these projects/assignments as soon as I can so I won't fall behind. I know it will all work out. I just have to make sure I use my time wisely and try my hardest no matter how stressful it all may be. It makes me feel better, however, after seeing the grade I received on my Argument Essay Final Draft. I worked really hard on that paper and know if I continue to put my time into future assignments, my grades and writing abilities will continue to show for all the effort I put into my work.

Immigration

Were 2 for 2 I thought today was a good discussion in class. Henry Ross and Eric did a good job today. I thought your presentation was interesting and I learned some new things about the immigration process. Class is about over, but good job today class

Today was good

Good job to Ross, Henry and Eric on your presentation! I think it went well and you guys had a non-biased opinion. Everyone participated for the most part and I think everyone got to express their view points. Mrs. Stariha missed out by not coming today, but its ok because she can make it up by coming next we when my group presents! (do it. ... no seriously, do it) Im in class now so i have to go but kudos to the college english class.

~true story~

English Fridays

Well the discussion today went well. Everyone was putting out good arguments. Now we have to go back f0r TAG. I like the talks because they're a relaxing change from the regular work. They also make class go by since they're interesting. My group goes next week and we're talking about welfare! So I hope everyone talks ALOT!!!

Not much time to post...

Class begins in 6 minutes, so I'm going to hurry!

1984 is a great read, and has a nice "FLOW."  (ha ha ha)
Secondly, I feel that my group's presentation will be just.... just fine.  I'm not expecting the best, but Eric, Henry and I put a lot of effort into it, so I guess we'll get what we deserve.

Last saturday, I saw my great uncle in GameStop.  I tried to avoid him (long talks and what not) but talking to him was destined to happen.  We socialized for 15 minuites, and I enjoyed myself.  I felt glad for talking to him, since it made him so happy.  Then on Sunday at around 9:30, he had a heart attack.  And at 10 PM, he was pronounced dead at Shelby Hospital.  This has lightened up my soul, and is making me appreciate my life more and more as I mature in to a man.
THE BELL JUST RANG!! $#^$#^$#$&
