been a while!
whoa, i haven't posted in a long time! i just wanted to check up on things around here. so i'm loving this high school class that i'm taking for credit! i actually love algebra... i like everything, really. i like how our teachers want us to express ourselves. i love how we're allowed to have opinions. i know that might sound weird, but you know it's true. i used to be the girl who freaked out when she got called on because she was afraid of getting the answer wrong. but now, especially because of english, i've come to realize that their are no stupid opinions. no one's 100% right, and no one's 100% wrong all the time... except maybe george w. bush, haha :DD but really; share what you think matters. do what moves you. learn as much as you can while you still can. and be young as long as you can. you'll never get these years back.
in social studies today though, our teacher made a good point. he was talking about how some of us don't appreciate the school experience right now; that if there weren't laws forcing us to be there, we wouldn't go, because we see no point to it. which, in a really sad way, is sort of true. i know i value my education, but there are some kids out there who genuinely just don't care. that makes me sad. i love reading, books, magazines, the paper, you name it. i'm one of the few kids i know that actually watches the news. i'm one of the few kids i know that actually keeps up with politics. i'm one of the few kids that actually has opinions for herself, and let's them be heard. you can't be scared. you need to let people know how you feel. we have free speech for a reason, you know. use it, but use it wisely. there's a difference between voicing your opinion on an important topic and talking trash. know it. embrace it. use it.
