"Ex- Basketball Player " Paragraph

I don’t think that it prepares young people for life because you can’t only rely on one thing witch is sports you have to have a back up plan and more for life .you still have to go through with your education witch is more important than your other curriculum activity’s. Like me I want to become an actress doesn’t mean that im going to make it to the big screen so I need a back up plan so I overall think that education is important.

Persuading You to Read a Blog

Us as upperclassmen should be an example and comment on freshman blog. We should try and get them prepared. Correct them so they can be ready for whats coming to them and show them that some of us do care and we want them to succeed we can be like role models to them and tell them they can do it and we believe in them.Show them that this isn't a game this is the real deal its not like elementary or middle school they not just going to pass to another grade. This year is probably one of the most important years so they need to get it together.They look up to us as sophomores and we can show them that failure is not an option. =)

"Sophomore Paragraph"

What does being a sophomore means. To me it means more responsibility we have to show our maturity.Being a sophomore we need to act our age and not our shoe size.Also do all of our work pay attention to the teacher when there talking.This isn't like 8th grade year it means so much more we have two more years and we need to put our adult face on and get it together.

SPA Poem

A day at spa is nothing but drama. Since I've been here, drama's been my best friend. She is my friend because I think my life would be boring without her. Like best friends are sometimes, she gets on my nerves. Being here at times feels like she's the only friend I have. I have my good times and my bad times here so it’s not always Hollywood.

"Grape Sherbet" Blog post 2011

I can relate to the "Grape Sherbet" poem because I remember going to my friend grave and I didn’t realize that there was skeletons and bodies under my feet it was weird but i also was in a happy mood when I was there because I also remembered the good times we had and appreciated every little thing that he’s done for me. A phrase that helps me imagine the poem is when it said that morning we galloped through the grassed-over mounds and named each stone. Imagery helps the reader get into character in a way and help them visualize the story and probably can connect with the story and the author.

Memorable Valentine's Day

My most memorable valentines was in 8th grade I was with this boy named Quan. The reason why it’s my most remeborable valentine because he was my first and last valentine unfortunately. He got me a big bear that said kiss me and chocolate. I appreciated what he got me but I wasn’t really into it. Because I didn’t really like him anymore so I pretended like I was happy then the next day I broke up with him I felt bad but after we became real good friends still to this day and I like it that way.

"I am Offering This Poem"emotion.

The emotion that "I am Offering This Poem" by Jimmy Santiago Baca expresses is well since it seems like he has nothing else to offer but love I’m guessing that’s what its expressing. For example he says I am offering this poem to you since I have nothing else to give you. Keep it warm like coat when winter comes to cove you. it seems like this person is someone who can’t really offer as much as he wants to but doing what he can for the person he loves.Thats why the emotion of this poem was to me kind of weird because the story is nothing but what he is offering I don’t know it’s complicated

"Remember" Homework paragraph

These statements are logical well at least they can be depending on the situation.For example you can be one with a person like if you are in love you kind of in a way become one with that person.I heard this alot from my mom she use to tell me when you find that right person you become one but I can't say that all people can become one I wouldn't know anything about that.Second example you can have a twin and you can do everything with your brother/sister and when you grow up it can possibly be the same.You and the universe can't be one because I just dont think its possible. I do agree with the two sentences being logical but at the same time dont because everyone and everything can't be one.

"Remember" Become a Poet Paragraph

" Entering the Poets world, I think she wrote this story and published it because she probably was going through something like not appreciating it when it was there.If i was a poet i would publish this poem because it has alot of meaning and its giving people something to think about when there going through a tough situation.If i were to make a poem and published it i would like to go around the world and talk and explain what the poem was about and what i was going through at the time and the reason why i wrote it.This story mad me feel like theres more meaning to the world because i never thought of it in this way.

My experience teaching was awsome. I kinda got the feel of being a teacher. All the students were very cooroperative and helpful to. I dont think that i will make being a teacher a living for me even though its fun but its just not something ill do for the rest of my life . I like when the students actually stops and listend to what we had to say i just had that rush of being a teacher i thought teaching was going to be boring but its really not its cool.

"Same Song"

I was in the 8th grade and i was going to o’Farrell middle school and I always had to wear uniforms so I didn’t really have a certain way I dressed. So I thought what’s going to happen when I go to high school so that’s when I changed my style. I really didn’t want attention it was really for my self and I did want to impress people not just one in particular. When I went to the mall for school shopping I didn’t really know what style I wanted go for I just thought just be me so that’s exactly what I did. I shaved my sides I wanted to be fun with my clothes so i had more name brand clothes I wore dresses and I usually don’t wear them, sandals leggings and more. When it came down to it I was happy and thought I don’t have to impress no body else but my self and that’s what happened.

Paragraph to Persuade You to Read My Poem

"Heart! We Will Forget Him!" by Emily Dickonson is a cool poem. Someone should read this poem because it has meaning to being heart broken. This is interesting because it goes into depth. The poem is about a lady who is convincing "her heart," or herself to forgive a guy. You may not want to read this poem because it might not make sense and it's a little too short, but overall the lesson being told is large and important. Another reason why you should read this poem is because you might be in the woman's situation. The best part of the poem is when she finally forgives him.
