This class has been an interesting and difficult one. Throughout the year we've had to post about anything and everything we did in our art and english classes which was pretty fun. Being able to post and seeing what everyone else posted as well was a good way of kinda getting to know my classmates.

Art and I never really got along, but this art class wasn't like those I've had in the past. It wasn't just about drawing or smashing things together. It was one of the best classes I had in high school. We made video projects as well as playing with dirt(we made duradangos). When we first started we read Lord of The Flies in English and for the art class we could choose from different types of projects to do on the book and we were allowed to partner up. So, Jessica and I decided to make a board game. It included main events from the book and it was pretty fun and a few classmates played it and seemed to like it. Our end of the year project was a video of ourselves. Our plans, a bit on who we are, and anything else we wanted to include. It was very difficult to complete because since we only had four cameras then six, we had to share them, so it took time to get footage.

This year was what I expected it to be, interesting. It was fun and yes there are things that could've been better but over all I liked it. It was a pleasure being in your class Mrs. Swanson.

Fair Well.

Time has come & gone once again, and now we are the ones sitting here today. We've watched many walk & get praised, and now it's our team. This year was suppose to be the highlight of our high school years, but only depending on how you see it. Some of us have suffered losses, while others have gained a variety of things. Whatever the case may be, we will leave here today, well at least I think we will, with a bit more knowledge of how to start off in the real world, and hopefully how to survive.

No matter what you've chosen to do, whether it's joining the military, going to college, or going straight into the workforce, you are starting the next part of your life and building the foundation to the rest of your life.

I'm pretty sure you all have classmates, teachers and family members you want to give thanks to for all the support and help they gave you to get this far. So why not take the time to do that now?

With these words I part from you all and I wish you the best and may you dream big and achieve all you aim for.

CHallenge #9

Blogging Challenge

I want to start off by saying that updating your Facebook, Twitter, or even your Myspace as soon as you wake up or before going to bed is ridiculous. Obviously you don't have much of a life if you're doing that. What ever happened to gently getting out of bed to start off your day?? Also for those who update their profile with multiple pictures. Who does that?? Unfortunately I know someone who has posted in one day between 50 to 100 pictures of themselves.

I can't really limit myself to just one topic so I'm hitting them all.

Sending over 200 text messages in a day is insane. Who does that?? I text but not as much as I did when I first got my phone. I mean everyone goes a little over board when they first get a phone, but not as bad as 200 texts or more a day. I guess this is more of a maturity issue amongst teenagers.

Hear ye , hear ye, I need to answer this hold on. Isn't that just the most annoying thing someone could say to when your desperately trying to get your point across. According to a poll, 22% of people under the age of 25 make interruptions in meetings, and and 24% when they're using the bathroom. That is the last thing you want to know, see or hear when you're doing your business you know??

These issues can be avoided if you use common sense or if you have enough respect for others.

Texting while driving.(Again)

Oprah has once again reached out to America on a big issue that has put many lives in danger. She has come up with a pledge for those who are or want to be against texting while driving.

I do not need to take any pledge because I do not drive let alone text while driving. So basically I'm set. Anyways Orah has a good idea with the whole pledge thing. There are many who wish they could completely eradicate the concept of texting while driving, and with this it could be seen soon. Yes there are those who will think they won't get caught or that they won't get in trouble for doing it, but in reality you will get a pulled over and get a ticket.

If you really need to take a call or a text that can't wait until you completely stop, then the smart thing to do is to pull over. This is something you should do if you want to avoid a $60 plus fine and 6 points on your license. By the way that is what you have to face here in Florida. If you have this money to spare especially in the economic crisis we are in, then good luck to you especially since you may be without a vehicle.

Is it really worth getting into an accident just to read a text saying"LOL". I mean that is the main thing that is texted in the texting community isn't it?? I for one value my life what about you? Then again I don't drive, but if I did it's common sense not to text while driving in the first place.
