Awkward silence, she is quiet… Not even when all my friends have abandoned the places they grew up in. I have to stay in Maycomb. Them children would run wild without my guidance. Every family needs a helping hand, Mr. Atticus especially. Although their still young, I aint even know who’s teaching who at the lessons here, I know I’m the authority figure for them when Mr. Atticus is gone, and without me who knows how them children would be acting.
He's so dreamy! I wish my mom would buy me that, but we don't ever have any money to spend on that kind of stuff!” my friend said this, “Well, you could always DOWNLOAD it off of the internet for free!” (she told me how to do it) after I got off the phone with her I couldn't wait to download my first batch of songs but, it didn't stop there. Growing up in my life has never been easy, we CONSTANTLY run out of Nutella, my curfew is only 8:30pm On school nights, and I have to take the trash out EVERY NIGHT. With that in mind, I thought swapping music online would give other repressed children an opportunity to see some positivity In their cruel lives. I thought it was the right thing to do.” Given the consequences Brianna LaHara faces, I believe the “Clean State Program” is a very reasonable program.
I would always be called in to work even though it would be my day off. I was sometimes lucky to be able to at least get one day off a week. I felt that I was being taken advantage of but I would never say anything out of fear of making my manager angry. I felt that there was nothing I could do.
(NEA Today).” Seven hours is a lot of the day working all day and we never stop five days a week and we have homework which is bad for us, it makes us tired.” Decades ago, the American Educational Research Association released this statement: “Whenever homework crowds out social experience, outdoor recreation, and creative activities, and whenever it usurps time that should be devoted to sleep (Scholastic news).” Kids need to play outside and have a social life they need to enjoy their free time but there is no free time because of all the homework. Kids through 6-12th and college need less homework because we already have seven hours of
They run around and work from dawn until dusk, doing school work for 19 hours straight. I am not making this up, I have friends in a small town just two hours from ere where their only free time is on the weekends, and most of that time is filled with more homework and other activities their parents sign them up for, such as extra math, Chinese, dance, piano, and lots of other things. All this gives them no time to just be kids. For us, our weekends are full of shopping in the mall, watching TV, playing video games, and sleeping. How is that not called be lazy?
Since high school I’ve been doing poorly in math but, I’m not going to let it get the best of me and I will do what ever is necessary in order to pass and graduate in June. When I go home I don’t study and I don’t even bring my book bag in the house, most times I just go in my room and just sit there. On weekends I don’t study because most the time I’m always out with friends. I’ve
I never imagined that living in a small town could have such an impact on my life. There was a time when I thought that it was a disadvantage - the same boring routine every day. Even though I had never been to the city, I always thought that living there would be much better than a small town. I used to think that life in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, was dull and filled with mind-numbing routines. I felt that the most exciting thing was the football games on Friday nights.
I relied primarily on my husband to keep me occupied and entertained because I knew no one. I envied him because he had the opportunity to go to work and interact with people on a daily basis. In the meantime, I was stuck in this little cottage on the shores of Lake Huron all day, with no one to talk to. I would call my mother and grandmother every day and talk for hours. Soon, I became friends with some of the other military wives, which in itself, is a very tight knit relationship.
I just arrived at America, everything was new for me. My daily routine comprised of going to school, coming home, resting for a while, waking up, hanging out with friends, coming back home, sleeping, and then repeating the same thing the next day. I didn't care about my homework or even classwork for that matter. In the meantime, the first semester I studied at ELAC, I got 4.0 GPA. Because it was so easy for me to get all A in first semester; gradually, I began wasting time.
I had got suspend almost the whole year. I stay talking backing to the teachers and did not care what they told me. I stayed in the 8th grade principle office. Coming to Murrah has changed me, I new that I could not come here and act a fool in high school. I know I can get out of control sometimes but I can do better then what I be doing.
