August 31, Entry 2

If they decided to have us go to high school for five years i think people would get bored with it and not want to put themselves out there to learn. School is long enough already in my opinion. Eight hour days, 5 days a week, that would be crazy to do that another year after senior year. There are some reasons that it would be good, like we would get more education and extra time to learn the things we didn't learn yet. I just don't think five years would be that great because it would just be boring. It would get old and I don't think it would make me want to be there. I would think teachers would get tired of us and want to start teaching other students and working with them more. Some parents would be happy because then their kids wouldn't go off to college and leave them, they would have another year with them. Others would probably think this is ridiculous because their child has the education he/she needs. Over all five years wouldn't be fun and not a good option.

Some goals I have for the year are to have fun and get excellent grades! In sports I really want to win and be aggressive!! Our team really needs some help.. we really need to step it up. We perform a dance routine at the football game on Friday.:) I am sooo excited and nervous. It will be fun! I hate getting up at 4:30 in the morning and dancing and then school and then volleyball. I love volleyball its one of my favorite sports. I am really looking forward to my first year of high school! I was sorta nervous at first, but its really not that scary people are nice. I really want this to be a good year and have a lot of friends. Having older friends is a plus because they can drive! :) I can't wait until I am 16 so I can have a license. I just hope some people in my class grow up a bit this year. I have a good feeling about this year and then again I have a bad one. It's a scary thought only having 4 years left of school and its just going to go by so fast! I really want to make the best of it and have many memories and good times. I know this year won't be perfect and there will be fights but thats just life i guess and even tho I hate it, it happens. I'm really excited to have more options this year and in the years coming. I am in a lot of things and I like being busy and staying active! Sports are my life and I really enjoy them. I will be practicing softball this winter so I can be great this summer! Life is pretty good right now and I'm really enjoying it. I really don't want homework ever! It sucks and it takes too long. Summer was pretty boring, but I went to St. Louis and that was really fun! I got to be with my family and it was a good time! :)
