Summer 2011!

WELCOME!

So today, I got some shocking news- I passed the Algebra ECA! Almost a Pass + but not quite! Anyways, so my day went well, took the finals and stuff and pretty much a laid back day. Since school isn't over technically until 3:00pm on Tuesday 31/ June, for us it is the last day.

What do I say? I will miss Mrs. Miller's class next year! I mean all the laughter, the joy, the learning oh yes- she taught us well! Thank You Mrs. Miller! Thank you to all the other teachers too. Mrs. Shane- Math Lab, Mrs. SHeets- English, Mr. Roby- Biology, Mrs. Walker- Computer Apps/Business Foundations, Mrs. Cash- Career Planning, Mr. Horton- World Languages, Mrs. Buckingham- PE, Mr. Schwartz- Art! Yup, without them, my freshman year would not be a success!

So as I finished up the school year, put the khaki pants and the polo in the washer, and put on my shorts and t-shirt on, I thought to myself, summer- already?! And when I got home, I was sort of happy school is over with! Now, on Sunday I get to leave, I will be going home to visit my grandparents and a vacation! Don't worry, i'll take lots of pics!

Have A Great Summer!

Don't Forget the sunscreen!

Best/Worst Memories!

WELCOME!

So, now that Freshman year is almost over, I figured I take the time to blog about my best and worst memories. Now as I said last year about 8th grade there was no worst memories, but this year, I would have to say it isn't the worst memories- just funny!

The best memories would have to be going to High School. I'm sorry to say it, but I'm happy that I am not in the Middle School anymore. Less drama, better teachers, and more freedom! What else? Oh yeah, I can't forget the teachers! Mrs. Miller, Mr. Horton, Mrs. Sheets, Mr. Roby, Mrs. Cash, Mrs. Walker, Mrs. Buckingham, Miss Lipina, oh all the memories! Can't wait until next yaer to have them! (Well some). One of the best was going to Algebra Class. Algebra Class is probably the most fun class ever! Mrs. Miller is thee weirdest, yet funniest teacher! Oh I'm going to miss her next year!

The worst memories- more like funny memories, happened just the other day. Now we had to take the ECA for Biology and we got our results back. After praying and worrying, the passing score was 509, turns out I got a flipping 508- boy was a I ticked! But instead of me going off on someone about it, I was being a responsible adult and handled it. Since everyone made it a joke, I did too! It turns out to be pretty funny. Yeah- So that's how it turned out. So the Finals today wasn't taht bad at all!

So that is my favorite and my hightlight of the year! 8th Grade Past, now 9th- oh gosh where has time gone? In a blink of an eye we will all be walking down that stage with our diplomas!- Yikes!

Have A Good One!

On This Day, Oh Beautiful Mother!



"A mother's love determines how
We love ourselves and others.
There is no sky we'll ever see
Not lit by that first love.
Stripped of love, the universe
Would drive us mad with pain;
But we are born into a world
That greets our cries with joy.

How much I owe you for the kiss
That told me who I was!
The greatest gift--a love of life--
Lay laughing in your eyes.

Because of you my world still has
The soft grace of your smile;
And every wind of fortune bears
The scent of your caress."


Happy Mother's Day Mom!

Have A Great Day!

Lets Get Ready to Rumble!




Since I am a Filipino I have to go with Pacquiao because he represents my country! He might win, he might lose? Who knows? But most likely from statistics that Pacquiao has a chance of knocking Mosley down after the 2nd maybe the 3rd round!

Who do you think will win? Any bets?

Tune it later and see!

Have A Great Day!
