My Thoughts

Here Im gonna put my thoughts on miscellaneous topics. I hope you enjoy looking at these topics from my view and maybe they can give you a new perspective of thinking. If you have ne comments feel fee to email me, and if you would like I will put them up on this site.

Positive
This particular subject I have so much insight into, and I am living proof that it is possible. I truly believe that in order to be a happy person either all the time or close to all the time you must stay positive. Last year, I wasnt ever truly happy, I cried over the dumbest stuff, and I was depressed quite a bit. Then, over spring break all the sudden it just came to me. Well, maybe nto all of a sudden, but well I was up at like 2 am arguing with Emily(for the final time I may add) and then after that fight I can honestly say, Ive never gotten jealous, angry(besides my mom), depressed, cried, or ne of that bad stuff. And I believe all of this is done, just by the way that you think. Yes I know it sounds a lot easier said than done, but u can do it too. Like for instance, say your bus driver is makign you get up 10 mins earlier, and ur bus is over crowded so some people have to sit 2 to a seat, well u can either say great now i get even less sleep and im uncomfortable, or you could say hay now the person that I like is sitting by me on the bus and I get to talk to them 10 minutes longer. Its as simple as that. Or for instance you could get mad that u have too much homework to do nethign else, or u could be glad that your smart enough to do it and able to do it and that you have friends and other stuff that you can do, or u could pout and stress out and get nothign done. I promise you there is a positive side to EVERYTHING, just some times you got to dig deep to find it. And once you start thinking positively everything in your life will go and seem right.

Popularirty
Popularity can be truly evil. Some teeenagers spend their entire high school lives to become popular. Most never make it. And you know what?? Im glad for those who never make it. You spend all this time becoming what you arn't just to be accepted and liked. And in this battle you become something your not. You may start smoking or drinkning or doing drugs, whatever it takes. Eventually you get to the level where it doesn't even matter anymore. You dedicate your life to this. In the meantime you lose your friends, the respect and trust of your parents, your grades may fall, your life just falls down hill. You may stay up all night waiting to have the most popular guy in school call you. Is it worth it?? To some it is. Even if you do reach that point where you are in the crowd, your life hasnt changed since before when you were struggling to be in the crowd. You still have to do what the public exspects you to do in order to be popular. One slip up and you are out of there. Now tell why anyone would WANT to do this. I would much rather be myself, you are soooo much happier that way. Wearing your own clothes, hanging out with who you want to, being who you want to be, that is what I strive to be, myself. If one person asked me to be popular, to go to a popular party, I would turn it down in a heart beat. I was once invited to a birthday party for the so-called most popular girl(she is so pretty that everyone is jealous of her and thats all they see) in school and the boy who lives down the street from me. I guess his mom thought that me and him were friends, which I talk to him maybe about once a year, so she invited me. Well, none of my friends were invited, and i know I would have had an awful time if I went, so I didnt go, and I havent ever regretted it a day of my life.

The IDEA program/Enriched Studies/Advanced courses(whatever you wanna call it)
Whatever you do, if you read this before its not too late. DO NOT, I repeat do NOT join IDEA. It is awful, terrible, its down right horrible. I hate the program, my mom made me join it, and now Im stuck in it. In high school, once you join your pretty much stuck in it and if you drop it your whole scheledule is messed up. All it does is get you one more credit, Its not worth it. Next year, thanks to some stupid bussiness people who sit around in a chair deciding whats good for the students when they havent been in a school in like 20 years , I get no thats right ZIP, ZERO, NADA electives. Since they changed the scheleduling thanks to a few students who do not use all of their resource period, we are going to a seven period scheledule, which means that I will be taking English, U.S. history, pre-cal, chemistry, gym, orchestra, and spanish. My electives are U.S. history, orchestra and spanish. Yeah those are ideal electives. Not! But like Im gonna give up orchestra or spanish which i have been working on those for at least 3 years, I dont think so. So now thanks to the IDEA program, some "fat cats", and students who cant find anything to do in resource except sleep, I do not get to take the classes I want, and I have given up on my dream job. Yes thank you all you people.
