Its what made me, me

I was bullied pretty bad back in the day, although I am not now , I still get that mental image. You would think bullying would make someone stronger or maybe want to fight back, yet it did not for me. It made me paranoid about what people thought of me. Weather I liked it or not pleasing them was always my goal. The pointing, staring, laughing, while I always seemed to be the joke of the show. After a while it does not get better, no just worse. Being quiet all the time seemed to be easier then speaking up for myself. If I was never bullied I would probably be more confident and not so shy. I would possibly think more positive about my self, where as I never seem to now. I would change this part of life in a heartbeat. Without it, it would effect everyone, including me. only because without it I am sure I would be a different person.

My Guitar

One thing I value is my guitar. I love playing guitar, though I never seem to have time to play that much now a days. I think I should play more, since it makes me happy, and stress free. Kind of like how listening to music helps some people whenever there stressed. It has been about three years since I have been playing guitar.

I personally do not think I am all that good, where as others think so. Last year I played three songs for a fundraiser (a stake fry benefit), although I was sick that day, I still ended up doing it. I love when I'm done performing,when the roar of the audience hit me. A proud feeling grows inside, though one might not understand, I fell Sam thought need more of it. Performing is fun, but the guts to get on stage is the killer. When that first note is hit, after is smooth sailing.

Performing is not all that is fun, when I learn a new song it is just as exciting. Not just that it seems like its always, whether I am upset, sad, or angry, it helps. When I am done playing, whenever I always feel better, it's like a healer. My guitar is apart of me, it's my passion,it's what makes me, me. I value my guitar.

Summer Break

        My best friend spent the night over my house during the summer. We stayed up late, about four in the morning. It can be a little scary to be around us when it gets late. Mainly because the later we stay up, the sillier, less smart, and less cautious we are. On the upside we also become really blunt, yet we tell it like it is weather it hurts or not.
        By the end of the day, we only had a monsters and ramen noodles. We spent most of the night sick and walking around. When we went to the park, yet swinging on a swing did not help. We did normal stuff, like standing in the middle of the street  for no reason. Just staring at the traffic lights.
        Now that I recall most of are monsters (drinks) ended up on the ground. We scared a little kid, and ran into some one we did not like. Almost got ran over by a car, and became really close to this random apple on the ground? Yes, were not normal, but that's us!

Jewel

Jewel, is my favorite nickname.

I like how its spelled,

its what I wish I could claim.

Its pretty, its simple, its a fit,

oh the way it flows,

wished more people called me it.

I like how in cursive its just

swoop, swoop, done!

No, not a chore, its just fun.

They see a word, or just a name.

 Its curvy! Its anxious! Its soft!

I see flame.

None of that struggle for it to be read.

I can finally relax,

and just let it be said.

Yes, Jewel, like a precious stone.

not funky, but creative,

and the fact that its known.

When its said,

power and confidence builds inside.

I feel I could do

anything, anywhere, anytime, worldwide.

To be called a jewel, was an honor in history

now, rarely said

and remains a mystery.



Good Attendance

        Through life there are different rules for different situations. Taking almost any topic into consideration, my number one rule is good attendance. I feel that is the most important rule people should follow. In my personal view I believe good attendance is remarkably important. It can show what kind of person we are, it builds character. Attendance can show how dependable, determined, or even how respectful a person is. Poor attendance can reflect how irresponsible, or unreliable a person might be as well.
        Not only could it show what kind of person we are, but it could even effect others around us. For example school, attendance can effect ones grade in the class. Say I'm in a group and my peers are depending on me to be there. Attendance is important for a job to. With poor attendance one could get fired. Coworkers need and depend on others. There are many reasons why good attendance is an important rule, I listed a few. People do not realize how important attendance really is.
