What major changes have you experienced from middle school to high school?

       The jump from middle school to high school wasn't too drastic for me. In 8th grade the teachers started preparing us, so I pretty much knew what to expect. Although, I realized that the work load changed a ton. In middle school, all of our teachers communicated about test dates and due dates for projects because everyone took those classes. All of the graded assignments were evenly spread out and never got piled up on one day. This aspect of middle school was really helpful because I never got stressed out about schoolwork.
       The difference from this in high school is every one takes tons of different classes. It is impossible for the teachers to keep track of everyones due dates. There are some days when I barely have any homework and studying to do, but then the end of the week comes and I have tests, quizzes, and graded work all due on one day. It is just a matter of planning out and getting organized for me because it is a huge change in school work from middle school to high school.

  1. this is so true! I feel like in middle school I was only stressed when I had practice and homework due, but now I have to worry about the piles of homework we get. Great job!

Fall Break Free Post

       Fall break is definitely one of my favorite breaks. It is a great break from school to relax and have fun. This past break, my mom and one of my friends mom surprised us with a trip to New York for our birthdays. We were both super excited and could not wait until we got there.        We had to get up at 3:30 Thursday morning to get to New Orleans to catch our flight. After the short plane ride, we did not waste any time, we jumped right in to doing things. We shopped the first day and went out to dinner for an early birthday dinner at the Sugar Factory. The next few days, we spent in Central Park, Little Italy, Brooklyn, and SoHo. Also, we went to see Hamilton. It was awesome! Overall, I had a very fun fall break and got a good break from studying and homework.

Interrogation Dialogue

Tom, the judge, and the lawyer  all face each other tensely in the court room. "I have some questions to ask you Mr. Tom, where were you on September 1st at 9:30 am?" The lawyer asks sternly. "I was at a coffee shop studying." Answered Tom. "Who were you with?" Questioned the lawyer. "No one, but an old friend of mine from college was there. I talked to her for about 10 minutes." "What is her name?" "Jill White." Tom answered. "What exactly did y'all talk about?' The lawyer interrogated. "We were just catching up. We hadn't seen each other in 5 years. She was telling me about her new job and her kids. That was really all." "Okay, but how do I not know you were in the alley right next to the coffee shop during the time of the murder of our town mayor?" "Why would you suspect such a thing? This is crazy!" Asked Tom frantically. "Answer my question." Rep

Summer 2017

        Summer is by far my favorite season. I love everything about. This past summer the first thing I did was go to the beach. I went to Destin with a couple of friends. Destin is by far my favorite place to go because my family has always gone there. One of my favorite things to do is drive into Seaside or Rosemary and eat and shop there. The rest of June I hung out with friends in Baton Rouge, went to cheer camp in Monroe for school, and went to the beach once more.          July was definitely the most exciting. The first few days I spent packing for a family trip and camp. I was going to a camp in Washington and Oregon, so before my family dropped me off we went to Seattle for a couple of days. It was super fun, we did city stuff and went to see one of the mountains near Seattle. On July 8th, they dropped me off at the Seattle airport where my group for camp was meeting and we said our good-byes. The camp is not really a traditional camp, but an outdoors/adventure one.
