GOODBye =(

Writing my personal essay was very interesting i definately would like to do it again. while writing i learned alot about myself and it really made me think alot. The strength of my essay was me writing about being bi racial i find it a very appealing because this topic is not brought up alot and when it is it's very confusing trying to find who you are. Growing up for me one of my main experiences with being bi racial alot of the time was being told im just black and it brought alot of mix up in my life because i didnt know why when i always seen my self as a girl that had black and white in her. in my essay i stated my opinions and my many understandings and i hope if other people read it they can relate to it. This is the many few non-fiction writing i've done its always easier writing a fiction because you can make up anything but non fiction its all about the true life experiences.

2. Writers should read because reading brings knowledge to someone. you get a better understanding when you read. Why would a writer write if he or she never reads books?

3. my time in creative writing has been fun. stories, plays its been a ton ,writing poems was my favorite one.

my favorite piece i wrote was probablh my poems i put alot into them and they reflected alot about how i felt, and plus they sound good after i wrote them haha.

My greastest piece of writing was probably my personal essay i put the most time and effort into it and i think i want more people to get something out of it other than my other pieces of writing. At first it took me alot to start because you dont realize your everyday experiences until you really think about them.

I did not enjoy writing plays because they never interested me it took me alot to write them because i didnt even want to take the time of day to write one.

After my time in creative writing i think i will start to write more outside of school..

BYE BYE MR MILES it was good having you as a teacher =)

An Unexcitingly Titled Blog

"The key to living life is finding happiness" i feel that their is more to just life then the things that are around us each day. i dont feel as if life is all about how many friends someone has how much money is in your pocket.i feel someone should have one thing in life that makes them go on with there day or makes them wake up each morning..happiness is not about the smile on peoples face or walking with your head held up high. happiness has to do with the love you share with someone or something and that will never leave out of your life.

In 2008 i would like to accomplish graduating highschool and moving on to my freshman year of college and have an idea on what i want to be in life.I think this is important because i want the best for me in life and i have to first succeed and get on a path to guide me to that direction. Im going to accomplish this by doing my best in school never give up and just keep trying and sooner or later it will be all over with.

heyyyyyy you

1) Writing plays never interested me, there was alot to put into them and i found them somewhat difficult..i like to not have to think alot when writing and as i write plays theirs alot of thought process to it. writing plays you have to change it around alot.

2) my life
personal experiences growing up
tragedy
happiness
accomplishments
goals in life


3) i would tell him/her ....
to try there hardest in life
never give up
always keep going
always walk with your head up and a smile on your face
respect yourself
dont go around regreting things
live life
be a leader not a follower
only keep the ones you love close

assignment 11

Great works of literature can last a long time. Jane Austen's novels (including Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and Sense and Sensibility) are still popular almost 200 years after they were first published. Anne Bradstreet's poems have survived about 400 years. The works of Greek playwright Euripides (who wrote Medea) have survived for over 2000 years. What do you think causes great literary works to live forever? Could you ever foresee yourself writing something that lasts that long? (Write at least 75 words.) I think someone who puts alot of effort into their work where people notice it, Then people will cherish it forever. If i was to make a playwright and it became big in my time and after my time has passed i would want it to be memorable. Anyone who really honored my work would keep my work going on over the next years and generations.

assignment # 10

What is one dynamic personality (someone who is unique, special, or amazing) you have either known personally or know about? Describe the person (feel free to use a made up name if desired) and explain what makes him/her dynamic. Include any specific examples if you can.

1) I think Taylor Helgeson is the most unique person i ever met in my life. I met Taylor when i was 12 at a camp called Duncan . When i first saw taylor he was this small young boy that was your average stand up kid that love to tell jokes but no one ever seemed to give him the time of day. Taylor loved to ride on his scooter, tell jokes, rap, draw, and go fishing. When you first looked at Taylor you would think he was this deprived quiet boy that dress in dark baggy clothes. He confused me but i liked his ways with everything. He was so smart and most of all funny and i never got this vibe before i met him when i just seen him on his scooter riding around early mornings after we had breakfast.

Happiness not happyness

  • Happiness is alot about appreciating life. Someone who wants to began their day each morning when they wake up appreciates life. Happiness is not all about walking with your head held high and a smile on your face sometimes it is. Happiness comes naturally to someone.
  • everyday i have a smile on my face because im always happy. i don't regret anything in life because life is too short to regret anything. I don't go around feeling bad about every little thing that goes around because i appreciate life. dancing is something that puts happiness in my life its fun and i feel like i can express myself through dancing.
  • My family, best friends,and people with good attirudes eachday bring the most happiness in my life. i love being around funny people or people that bring positive energy around me. i love feeling comfortable and i am able to feel that around my family and bestfriends,
  • the greatest need in my life is FOOD! when i eat i always get arage of happinesss
