Be The Change You Wish To See In The World

"Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you're in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you’re just as pretty without make-up on. The one who turns to his friends and says "That's her"

End of the Year

For eighth grade students the end of the year should be a time where we are not having a lot of homework and where everything is winding down. But this is not how things are seeming to be right now. Right now we are having big tests and quizzes and learning more new information.

It's May now and things should be wrapping up and getting done with but it really seems like things are getting started and we are learning a lot of new information. At the end of the year there is a lot of pressure to get really good grades and pass all of your classes with A's but if that is such a big goal for the school then why don't they make the goal an easier goal to achieve. I think at the end of the year should be the time we review and calm things down so everything is easy and we can get good grades as we finish 8th grade.
