Well I know this really is off topic because I'm not really talking about College English, but whatever.
Anyway, I've been thinking about how much I have changed since ninth grade. In ninth grade I had three really close friends and now it's our senior year and I don't talk to any of them. Not because I think I'm better than them, but because we just drifted apart, plus I think I matured a lot! For the most part I hang out with a lot of people that I never dared to speak with four years ago. It's just so strange how much a person can change in four years! I've definitely opened up. I think I'm pretty much up front with everyone about everything. Last summer I had a realization that I have no idea when my life will end, so I need to live this life while I'm here. And at camp last summer (National Leadership Conference.. which I know Jake and Luke went to for their first year, but it was my second year) I had my quest group help me over this wall (both literally and figuratively) and I just knew at that moment that I had to stop pushing people away and start opening up. I've become so vulnerable and I know this is true because since the beginning of senior year I've done things that I have never done before! I'm so proud of myself and I hope all this strength that I've gained will help me next year when I'm at Grand Valley State University.
Totally just ranting, sorry!

Snow Days Are Da Bomb!
Thank God for all these snow days! Three days off is a new record I think!? It's been great taking a load off and relaxing for a change! I hope we don't get pounded monday with tons of work that we're behind on! ... I can't wait for SPRING BREAK!
Well This Sucks...
Well our Op-Ed essay is due today but I haven't had the conference dealio with Ms. K... so my essay isn't going to turn out as good as I would've hoped. Well let's just hope that the 1984 test isn't that hard on monday... Ohh and since we don't have school today when are we going to do the contreversial issue for this week?
snow hey day
I've already received many Op-Ed essays via email. If you were going to print a copy, bring it on Monday. Sorry that I didn't get through all of the conferences that I would have liked because of the snow days.
You are all very prepared for the Test over 1984. It's not much different from the quizzes which you have shown steady improvement on. Hopefully, we will be back to school on Monday and get that over with so we can move on.
Tuesday I would like to go over the first three chapters of Johnny. You've had the books, but if someone left them at school they will be able to get caught up Monday night.
