graduation speech

Good evening, families, teachers, and fellow graduates. Today marks a very important day in our lives, a day that ends one chapter but starts the beginning of  a new and exciting one. On my first day at Golf Middle School, I never thought I would be able to adjust to the huge and scary school that Golf seemed to be. But thanks to the help of my teachers and peers, the transition into middle school didn't take that long to get used to. Soon enough I could navigate Golf in my sleep. One of the things that makes Golf different is that we have 5th graders at our school. You aren't treated like a little kid, but you also aren't loaded with a ton of responsibilities. This made 5th grade a very fun and easy transition into middle school. I wish we could still only have spelling, geo, and fluency for homework every week, but I guess that's not possible in 8th grade. Thinking back to my years at Golf, I wish that I took more time to enjoy the little things like Mrs. Conejo c

home

Home could be anything to you. To me, home is not a physical place. Home is when i'm with the people I love being my normal, crazy self. It is the feeling of unconditional love and laughter. Recently I saw some of my best friends who I hadn't seen a few months, and when we were together it felt like there had never been any distance whatsoever. That is what home is to me. I could be in my house, but it doesn't always feel like home. It feels like home when I hear my parents screaming at the TV watching sports or when my brother is screaming at his xbox. When I am "home" I get a happy and warm feeling.

dear diary

Dear diary, Today I won the interview! Walking into the office thinking of the Mayor and Mrs. Chvojka sitting there waiting for me was a really scary thought. When Mrs. Chvojka led me into the room where my interview took place and I saw the mayor, who just looked like a normal guy, it really calmed me down. I thought he would be wearing a suit and would have a very serious expression, but he just looked chill and happy to be there. I did not expect to win by any means, but when I found out the wonderful news that I had won I was so proud of myself. I texted my mom and she was so, so happy! This made me feel really good about myself :) Keep carrying on.

the new year

If I had to describe 2017 in one word it would be roller coaster. I had a lot of ups and some downs. I shared many laughs and cried some painful tears. I made new friends and got closer with old friends. And I learned a lot about myself. Many people think that all of the celebration about the new year is pointless, but to me it's a chance to start fresh. We should all take advantage of the new year and make the most of it. Everything I've always said I wanted to do, or wanted to be, I want to do in 2018. 2017 was a pretty big year for me. I became an 8th grader (last year of middle school), turned 14, started thinking about high school (I'm going to make another blog about this), and became an overall stronger person. I'm just glad that 2017 is over, to be honest. 2018 is a very big year for me for one main reason, high school. High school is some people's best four years, and some people's worst nightmare, but I have no idea how my high school experience

movie review

The movie I'm going to be reviewing is Wonder. I read this book in 5th grade and I loved it. I think I read it in 1 or 2 days. When I found out that Wonder was going to be turned into a movie I was super excited because I really wanted to see what it would be like as a movie. Would the movie live up to the book's standards? I had to wait and see. We saw the Wonder movie as a school field trip. This was probably one of my favorite field trips because it was an amazing movie! Most people say that movies that were originally books are never as good as the book, but this movie had me just as excited and hooked on the story as the book did. The movie was exactly how I pictured it would be when I read the book for the first time. All of the actors did an outstanding job portraying their characters and whoever casted all of the actors made excellent choices. I couldn't imagine anyone else playing Auggie Pullman (Jacob Tremblay was incredible and he was only 10 years old when the

christmas list

This year, there isn't really anything i'm dying to receive. I have all the big things I need so i'm just going to ask for some smaller things. 1. The first thing i'm asking for is fuzzy socks. If you know me then you know that I wear fuzzy socks ALL THE TIME and I love them! I don't care what they look like, just give me fuzzy socks and i'll be happy. 2. The second thing i'm asking for is clothes. Whenever I don't have a big item on my mind, I ask for clothes. It's always nice to receive clothes in my opinion. You can never go wrong with clothes. 3. The third thing i'm asking for is for gift cards. Most of my relatives have no idea what to get a 14 year old girl for Christmas so they go with them. I'm completely fine with this because then I will get to avoid faking a happy reaction when you get something you don't like. This way, I can pick out what I want to buy. 4. The fourth thing i'm asking for is Bath and Body works pr

gratitude

I'm sitting in English class and it's 10:53. I'm really hungry and tired but I still have a lot to be thankful for. Here are some of those things: 1. The first first thing that i'm thankful for is good health. There are many kids who suffer everyday from terrible illnesses but luckily, I am not one of those kids. 2. I am thankful for my friends because they always know what to say and do to make me feel better it something's wrong. Without my amazing friends I wouldn't have people that I can laugh and cry with. 3. I am thankful for my parents because they do so many things for me. 4. I am thankful for my home. Some kids worry about coming home to an unsafe environment but I get to come home to a nice house. 5. I am thankful for my phone because I get to talk to my friends who i'm not able to see everyday. It also just makes life a whole lot easier. 6. I am thankful for the weekends because they allow me to have a break from school and just chill.
