If you had the power to change something about your school, what would it be?

If I had the power to change something about my school, It would be the amount of tardies it takes you to get on LOP. Last year I know It only took you five tardies to get on LOP. This year I’ve heard that they changed it to 15. I don’t know If that’s true or not but I would change it to 20. I I would change it to 20  because once you’re on it, you can’t go to any school dances, you can’t be on a sport, you can’t graduate on stage, and it’s hard to get a lot of them off at once. If I could, I would get rid of LOP completely. I would also change the school lunches because they’re nasty.

What to do in class if you’re bored

If you’re bored in class you should eat. That’s what I do in almost every period. If you’re tired, take a nap. Pass a note to one of your friends in the class to communicate with them without actually talking and disturbing the class or the teacher. Start to throw things like an eraser or little paper balls at your friends. If you’re a girl that has split ends, then break your split ends during class. Whistle until the teacher asks you to stop. Come really late to class so that you can spend less time being bored in class. Sharpen your pencil until it’s gone. Go on your phone. Lastly, if you have a plastic sandwich bag, breathe into it, close is up without letting all the air out. Then pop it to scare the whole classroom.


Who lives an easier life, men or women?

I think this question is more complicated than just saying a guy has is easier for sure, or a girl definitely has is easier. There are numerous factors that contribute to the answer of this question. It could all depend on culture, time period, what society makes easy for a particular gender, physical characteristics, and what the specific person actually wants to do with their life.
Some ways that men have a tough life are... they can’t show emotions, they have to deal with their girlfriend/wife’s complaints, and they usually have to make the first move when wanting to talk to a female. Some ways that females have a tough life are… periods every month, have to give birth, feeling powerless, and feeling pressured to look young and beautiful.


I have my mom’s eyebrows because I don’t have any and neither does she. I tried growing my eyebrows out but there weren’t really any results, so I color them in sometimes. I get my creativity from my mother. My mom likes painting a lot and so do I. I talk loud just like my mom. I’m very impatient and like to get things done right the first time, and I would say I get that from my father. My skin color is like in the middle, because my mom is really light. She looks like a straight up white girl. She even dyed her hair blonde. Then my dad is dark, so I’m in the middle of them. I’m really funny and I get that from my father because he likes to make jokes a lot.

Who has it easier, Men or Women?

Honestly, the men have it easier than women. Mean don't go through emotional stages. they don't get their monthly visits. Men don't even go through a 9-month pregnancy. men sometimes judge women based on how they look on the outside not who they really are on the inside. women have three roles, they are mothers, fathers and to top it all off educators. 

Unlimited plane Ticket

Andrea Silva 

If I had an unlimited plane ticket for a month, I would travel around the world. For instance, I always wanted to travel to Barcelona, Spain or possibly Greece, as well as Australia. although, for the month i would travel to Spain , stay there for for about 2 weeks or a week , then I would travel to Sydney Australia. After Sydney, i would then for the last week or so of the month travel to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and Cancun , Mexico. to be honest with that one month plane ticket I'll travel around the world. I love traveling. I'd like to experience something new, find new things, learn new cultures, new languages and meet new people.

School Changes

Shaun Stephen

One thing I would like to change about school is the lop. I honestly hate lop because you get detentions for stupid reasons. I think it would be best if they get rid of this system because honestly more than 90% of the school do not like the lop system because of the stupid detentions and you cant be in any activities and cant play any sports or do any clubs because of lop. It would be best for all of us to just get rid of lop and let people just to get tardies and fail class

freestyle

Shaun Stephen

Now and days more people are acting fake and shady. I know its not the nice of word but that's the only words I can really think of. There are so many people out there that act fake and like to act shady around the there friends. and act fake I would say act more of them self instead of acting like a fake wanna be friend. in my eyes half more than 89% of the school likes to act fake around other people and act like there really your friend but there really there not they wanna be your friend only for that moment 

First tattoo

Shaun Stephen

My first tattoo is going be my grandma name because she means so much to me and I lost her at a early age. I think it would be best if I honor her name on my arm the right one it least. Cause she did so much stuff for me when I was little and she was the best family member ever to live and take care of me. She would also call me after school to make sure that I was safe and Make sure no one would bully me or pick on me so I would love to honor her on my right arm. And She would of did the same to me if she was still alive. 

Ways to aviod being bored in class

Nasser Mansour

     If I ever get bored in class I usually just put my head down and take a nap. Another thing I do is just doodle in my notebook or work on a creative picture that would actually look cool. But most of the time when im bored in class I just space off looking either outside or looking up at the ceiling. Also, if none of those options work for me I just try doing the work the teachers give me to so I get the grade for that class and so im not bored. But school in generally is boring besides P.E and after school sports. I also Talk A LOT everyday in class which are the reasons why some of my teachers dislike me. These are the things I do to avoid being bored in class. 

1 thing to change in school

Nasser Mansour

     If I had 1 thing to change in school it would be the LOP system. Honestly, the whole thing with LOP is a joke, its stupid. If we have more then 5 detentions we can go to the washrooms in class, cant attend home basketball games, or even join a sport. LOP shouldn't be a rule in school because even though its suppose to make us come to school so we don't get on the list. But I know for a fact most of the students in Kennedy High School are on LOP. So whats the point of having it still. Thats 1 thing I would change in Kennedy. Another thing is changing math teachers because ALL OF THEM can't teach good. All they do is give us a packet and expect us to do it like we know how to do it.

True Story

Shaun Stephen

Let me tell you about a city that is very common on on the news. A city where most people getting killed for being in the wrong time. A city name Chicago. I wasn't born in Chicago I was born in the suburb. It took a while to get use to the Chicago style. I only been here for 6-7 years and it's been hell and good at the same time. I met new people and new enemies along  the way of coming into Chicago. But lately the crime rate is going crazy up and its not a good thing. My parents even thought about taking me out of this city.

Freestyle Friday!

Nasser Mansour

      I enjoy my life to the fullest. The reason behind this is because we only got 1 life. so instead of living in the past. You could just keep moving foward and have fun try new things in life.Go to Six Flags or maybe even a carnival. Staying in the past isn't going to get you anywhere besides being depressed. Thats how I think about it at least. Everyone has a different perspective about this topic and thats just how I see it
   
      

freetsyle

Shaun Stephen

Today I was thinking about going to sleep all weekend because of track and field,It's very tiring and it also gives you enough workouts to make you tired and sleepy. It is a tough sport most people think that is hard. Well every sport is hard you have to work on getting better. Cant just think everything is so easy. You have to put time and effort into something you really love. But it would be nice if my coach cut practice short so I can catch up on on my sleep. Also I wish I can eat snacks in the middle of practice because Ms. G makes me very hungry and just want to eat a a lot but I cant cause she going to get mad.                    

Do you look more like your mom or dad?

I look more like my mother because we look similar. I got my moms eyes and her skin color. I don't look anything like my father because hes a dark skin. If I could choose who I would resemble it would probably be both. The reason for that is because I would like to have my fathers skin color but my mothers eyes. The one thing I wouldn't want from my father or mother is most likely their height because they are both short.

Freestyle Friday

Nasser Mansour

      I love basketball. Even though I didn't make the team this year I still play. It won't stop me from playing it for the rest of my life. I mean most people if they don't make the team they would just quit and not play no more. But that's different with me. Basketball means so much I play for the love of the game not to just break ankles or do some fancy moves. I mean if it happens the crowd will do wild and you will feel good inside. But then after that you go back to playing serious. I will always play basketball and next year I will tryout for Kennedy's Basketball team and this time I will make it! 

Successful Quote

Shaun Stephen

"to be successful , you have to ignore the crap people say about you.''

This quote is saying if u want to be successful you gotta ignore what people say about you. This quote reflects to me because there has been a lot of people that I've met that tell me I can't do it or I can't make it because i'm supposedly not skilled. Either if its track, cross country, basketball, I give it my 100%, Because everything I do I dedicate every hard work I do to my grandma that had passed passed away. So I,Just ignore them continue on what your doing. No one can tell you that you cant achieve your goals because your goals are what make you do everyday and make you work harder in life for.

Who has it easier Men or Women?

Nasser Mansour

      Honestly, I think Men have it way easier then women because as guys we don't get pregnant. So that's already a reason why men have it easier. Also, as boys we don't need all the make up crap or clothes like every 2 days. We just need a pair of basketball shoes short and a short to bust people in ball. Another reason why men have it easier is because girls are spoiled little brats. They always complain and some of them never shut there mouth.

First tattoo

Nasser Mansour

      For my first tattoo I would get My moms name on my chest. She means the world to me. After everything shes gone through she still make all my brothers and I happy. Cooked everyday for us, bought us clothes, game system, and much more. That would be my only tattoo probably if I ever get one. But for sure my first tattoo would be my moms name.

      

ways to deal with boredom in class

       There are so many ways to deal with boredom during class. Some of the ways to avoid boredom is just doing the work that the teacher gives you so you can keep yourself occupied. Another way will be playing games that you have on your phone. But make sure that you won't get caught by the teacher. You can just be drawing pictures about anything and/or eat some snacks to keep yourself occupied in class. In conclusion these are ways to deal with boredom.

For freestyle Friday I decided to write about one of my favorite Artist is j Cole, He's one of my favorite Artist because he speaks the truth in most of all of his songs. He writes about what most people go through now and days. I would say J Cole and Kendrick Lamar are a great duo to make music. Whenever you need to stop and think about life I would prefer to listen to them because there are sometimes where u just want to think about life and because you go through some hard things and J Cole is there to make you feel better about your life and to make you feel better as a person.

whos your favorite athlete my

my favorite athlete is Kobe Bryant Kobe is my favorite athlete because he is elite these really no one that has come on his status he might be considered as the second best of all time but to me he is the first even tho Micheal Jordan has more rings and championships then him.But Kobe is the second highest scoring player in a game he holds the record for points and threes  and the man can dunk well in his younger years.

Donald J Trump officially is in the white house in the united states of america. And some people are very upset. I for one am very happy. I feel like America can be fixed from what happened when obama and hillary did. I feel good I feel happy that he is in there. And i hope he will be a good president and also hope he can and hopefully he will make america great strong and powerfull again! Make and give hope for the american people! America first!

Nasser Mansour

     I would like to go to the Cafe Terrance at night because it seems nice and chill. Just to walk around and enjoy the rest of the day with your friends. Lie down under the trees and just relax. Look at the stars and find the Big Dipper or the little Dipper. Also you could talk your girl and just go on a little date. Take her on a fancy restaurant and spend the rest of the day with her.

description of covert

Krystian Walkosz

Covert with the beutifull sun and the warm nights. Beach waves that crash at high speeds. Or waves so tall it feels like your fighting posieden yourself. The grass moist and wet in the morning from the usual cold nights. we sit around a bonfire and talk all day long. The little pieces of fire light and fluffy rise up to the sky. the warm mornings with the great smell of green from trees and flowers.

Choosing a place to go

Shaun Stephen
 
If I had a place to visit I would probably go to New York or California to have visit some of my family members/Friends that I know that are over there. Also I would enter gaming tournaments for money and win fame and glory for myself.I think it would be a good use of traveling and also to explore how it would be to be in a different city than Chicago where u cant really go outside because its dangerous. Another place I would like to visit is Puerto Rico. I heard its a very nice place to visit and to have fun with friends.

what comforts you?

Nasser Mansour
  
     My friends comforts me because I don't feel shy or nervous when I talk to them. I feel normal telling them things in my life. But only if they are my best friends because I knew them for a long time. I feel comfortable crying in front of them if that every happens because I never cry. Also,my family comforts me because they are basically everything to me. They are always here for you no matter what situation you are in. Thats what comforts me. 

Bellringer, Unhealthy Habits

             Some of my unhealthy habits is eating a lot of bags of chips. Eating a lot of chips will soon maybe have a negative impact on my life in the long run. So I shall eat less bags of chips starting today. Some of my other unhealthy habits is playing with my retainers by moving them around with my tongue. I think another unhealthy habit is drinking a lot of water before I go to sleep. Reason is I wake up way too often during the night. I believe these are my only unhealthy habits from my life.

detailed description of my home.

Krystian Walkosz

My house. Two stories. Two leather couches scratch marks on floor from couch. Different color leather from ginger eating the couch. Smells like poland from the flowers my mom buys from a polish market. Stairs that creak from being used so many times you think itll break. high ceilings and small rooms. Sleepy nights and fun mornings. 

Election

Shaun Stephen

    That Hillary Clinton is winning the election so far and the only way trump can honestly win is to take more voters in other states and also to win the most of the electoral votes. If Hillary does win it would be better than Donald Trump winning because he's being very disrespectful to most races,But mainly Black and Mexicans. And most white people are supporting him so Mexicans will be set back to their own country. I'm hoping trump don't win so then all my black people and Mexican people still be here in Illinois. 

Favorite Sport

Nasser Mansour

     My 2 favorite sports are basketball and wrestling. The reason why I like basketball is because I been playing basketball since 6th grade. But I wasn't the best at it. Until I practiced everyday over and over again. Sooner or later in 8th grade I was starting 5 and I knew my practice paid off. Wrestling is AWESOME! Practices are always very hard and just makes me want to work harder then the man  next to me. Makes me want to put 110% everyday.

fake news

krystian walkosz

I dont know what to believe on the news some news can be real some can be fake. I usually watch wgn news because Its funny its fun. And the storys can be funny or serious. I like the news anchors I just like the news on there. But i dont know if there blocking the truth so I dont know.  But my day has also been going good. I just wanna go home and sleep thats all. 

How my sophomore year started.

Mia Rhone
Today was my first day to dress for gym and I didn't have my gym uniform. I am upset with myself. I was also late to one of my classes today. I was supposed to be on my way to my fifth period class but I looked at my schedule different and went to my sixth period class. When I entered into the class we are normally in,there was no one in there. So I was walking around looking for my class and I couldn't find them, so I went to my counselors office to ask her if she knew where my class was, and she asked me what teacher did I have and I told her I had Mr. Hernandez, and she told me that he was at lunch, and she asked me if I knew that it was fifth period I said no. The whole time, I thought that it was sixth period. I was extra late to class, and one of my goals was to get to my classes on time and I've already been late to school and my classes. I just hate how I started off my sophomore year.

Cats or Dogs?

Nasser Mansour

     Honestly I like dogs a lot more because most dogs can protect you from mostly anything. I hear stories all the time of dogs protecting its owner from gangsters or even robberies. But thats only if you treat the dog right. Some people don't even care and soon enough the dog doesn't protect it's owner. Also I kind of like cats too because they are cute. But I hate the fact that they scratch all the time. Even if you don't play with them they will scratch you. 

Monkey escaped the zoo

Shaun Stephen

One day workers were working on a power line to fix the electricity in the city. But a animal came out of no where and scared the worker. He tried fighting the monkey But the monkey tried fighting back by trying to knock the man down. A few moments later the monkey was hit with a dart to make it fall asleep and it fell and Hit a building from 10 feet in the sky and had fallen to death. They luckily save the man from getting hurt and was able to finish fixing the power line so the power was able tot turn back on. The Monkey was allowed to escape because no one had checked all the cages and animals making sure they are secured.

Trump winning

krystian walkosz
 
My home boy made it. He made it to office and im so happy. I have wanted him to be in the white house since the begging. And now he made it! oh hell yeah! My man is the greatest. He will be the greatest president ever! my man the man himself Donald J Trump made it to office!! Hell yeah. I dont care who hates me for who my parents voted for I only care for him winning.

Bellringer, Freestyle

Adrian Hernandez


         Well yet again it's Friday so I'm writing this freestyle bellringer. This means that I won't have to wake up early in the morning. Also today is the Inaguration of Trump. Not so many of those people are happy about today's inaguration. And I'm one of those people. But as long he does not do anything that impacts the U.S, I'm glad. This week I'm going to get battlefield one game, so that is pretty cool. I'm also gonna be playing basketball.

how to avoid a boring class

Krystian Walkosz

I dont get bored in anyclass. I sit there and do my work. Its simple really. all you have to do is do your work and make sure you pass the class. Thats whats great about actually wanting to be in school! School is fun to me. I just wanna pass this class tho cuz I have a low grade. My day is going good. Im chilling like a villian doing my thing. 

Bellringer: Last time I felt disappointed

Nasser Mansour

      The last time I felt disappointed or let down was when I didn't tryout for the basketball team freshman year. The reason why I didn't tryout was because I never showed up to conditioning so I just thought I wouldn't make it. Which was a really dumb idea because I never believed in myself. Another time I was disappointed in myself was when I failed 1 of the biggest test in school and my grade dropped from a A to a C. Which made me very disappointed.But I ended up bringing the grade back up.

8th period

Shaun Stephen

8th period My ancestors

Shaun Stephen

   I don't know really know much about my ancestors, My mom or dad didn't really mention it a lot when I was growing up. But I know I have some characteristics about both sides of my family. Like I get more my style and looks from my mom. But I get most of my athletic from my dad. But it would be good to learn more about my ancestors to know what I have in common with them. Or to learn if anyone either on my mom or dad side have anything in common or it least known from doing something really well and becoming very successful with there life. And If they did I wanna know who was and be able to see how they did it.

Screw today.

Krystian Walkosz

I hate today. Im so pissed off i wanna scream I already punched a locker so fucking hard. My girl might go to jail for cyber bullying??? What the fuck!!!?? this is bullshit! thats so retarded! the other girl started it! my girl did absolutely nothing virtually wrong!! I wanna scream I dont wanna be in this class. Im so upset This is so dumb she didnt deserve this. 

bottle up memory

a memory i would bottle up is when me and my family went to south Carolina and we went to myrtle beach for the summer and we had a great time me and my cousins would like wake up at 6 am to to got the beach we had a great time because the hotel that we were in their were palm trees it look like California  then their was this carnival that had a Ferris wheel and it was really fun.

who has it easier men or women?

Krystian walkosz

 I really do not care both men amd women have there problems. What we should be really worrying about is economics and about the election. Worrying about who has it worse men or women is stupid. We need to worry about more important issues. Like whats happening in the middle east. Or the politics that are happening in america.

Bellringe:Unlimited plane ticket

Nasser Mansour
 
      If I had an unlimited plane ticket I would travel all across the world. Explore the rest of the world and try new foods and discover new animals. After I went to all the places I ever wanted I would just sell it. I'm thinking maybe 10 thousand dollars or something. Or whatever someone offers but it has to be a decent amount. Then when I sell it I would use the money to buy a mansion. Also I would buy mom a house and give her back everything she has done for me when I was a kid. Then make buy my kids anything they want, but not to much because they are gonna get spoiled.

MEN VS WOMEN

Men have it easier in life because they don't have to worry about getting their little red monster every month, or have a risk of getting pregnant. There are even some men who dont even work and make their wife work but the woman usually does all the cleaning and they are supposed to be stay at home moms. woman also feel that they are supposed to look a certain way or act a certain way and are always being judged so men have it easier than women.

I messed up

I messed up I messed up bad. God fucking damn it why am i like this. I am talking to a girl name taylor and now were going back to my house to have sex. Why did I think this was a good idea. I hate myself Im not ready for a relationship. Ive gotten to deep. I don't know what to do. FUCK why am I like this! I really dont know what to do.

Ivan Espinoza "Ye Quote"

"My music isn't just music- its medicine" - Kanye West
Not all people listen to music for pleasure, music to so many is a distraction from all this bs. All this fake and brain washed people. Many peoples decisions effect people life's. Many of this decisions result in people being hurt, lied to. Most of this people pretend to be someone who they are not. So many people figure things out that it's time for a change. Music is the medicine to your hurt mind. Music is the medicine to the fix of your broken feelings. In Saint Pablo from the album T.L.O.P by Kanye West he said "The media said it was outlandish spendin' The media said he's way out of control I just feel like I'm the only one not pretendin' Km not out of control, I'm just not in they control". I can relate because I will be real and speak my mind when I think something is wrong but you might feel it's rediclious but people haven't listen to good music so their mind could be cleared from all this music with this negative vibes. Their eyes need to be open to reality. I'm not crazy, I'm just not brain washed.


Ivan "Ye Quote"

Who would win in a fight Chris brown or Soulja boy. (Eduardo Lopez)

I would say that Chris Brown would win in a fight against Soulja boy, I think Chris brown would either drop him on a body shot or give him a (TKO) technical knock out. I say this because from the videos I've seen of Chris brown training he fights with way better technique and throws more punches and doesn't drop his hands. While Soulja boy fights flat footed and almost always squares off. So I can really see Chris brown beating up Soulja boy.

My Unhealthy Habit

And unhealthy habit I have is having my phone on me all the time I can't lose eyesight of my phone or i get really nervous. When i go to sleep I keep my phone under my pillow. I get really paranoid when my phone is not in my sight. Last year, my phone was stolen and ever since that I can;t trust anyone with my phone or have it out of my eyesight.  It's something that i know is bad but I need to have my phone at all times.

"I wish I was...."

Nathalie Navarro 

I wish I was 12 again because at that time period I didn't have to worry about anything except homework. Now I wake up thinking if school is worth my time. Now I spend my weekends in a place I don't  call my home. It sucks to be the only cousin who cant go out because I don't have money. It sucks not to show your creativity in a city known for having amazing minds and artist. These things are stuff I took for granted when I was 12. I wish I had that and many more stuff but the world wants to play games with me but all I have to do is win in order to get what I want the most. Happiness

THE BEST BELLRINGERS EVER!!!

Bottling up
if i were to bottle up anything i would bottle up the moment when i was in the hallway and Isaura Elizabeth Delatorre touched my arm. She dint just "touch"my arm. She caressed it. That was by far the happiest moment of my day. You may be thinking, "she was probably moving you out the way" BUT NOOO she wasn't , maybe she just wanted to feel my arm;) JOKING!! But yes , it really happened . Honestly , before talking about 8 ball pool , we never said a word to each other until then.
Resemble less
i am suppose to be like my father but i refuse to. Family members always tell me "you're just like your father" and/or "you look just like your father" OK i get it, i look like him when he was younger , but that doesn't mean i act like him because we are a whole different person with a whole different mindset. And for those who really know me , you know why i'm speaking negative about the guy. I would not want to resemble anyone because theirs always a negative part of someone. I would stay and be looked at as myself and no one else. Be yourself because everyone else is already taken - Oscar wylde
Allan Garcia

Being 5 again :
I wish I was five again because that is my favorite number and when I was that age i was in kindergarten. Kindergarten was pretty laid back and fun because there were no tests or any huge assignments that I had to turn it. I would also wear the cool halloween costumes that I cannot wear because I am too “big/ old” And best of all, THERE WAS NO DRAMA 

Favorite Food:
My Favorite food is chicken because it has over thirty-eight grams of protein, IT TASTES GOOD, and you can make so many meals out of chicken. The protein is important to me because I love lifting weights and your muscles will grow bigger/ faster depending on how much protein you consume. To be honest I never met a non-vegan anyone that doesn’t like chicken 


10 thing:you never post on Facebook;
Nudes
Drugs
Homework answers
Fights
Animal cruelty 
Alcohol 
Curse words
Racist/hate comments

Social Security 





Dogs or Cats?
      I prefer dogs over cats because I am allergic to cats, you can actually take your dog outside and dogs are more playful than those mean,boring cats. Cats just sit there and secretly walk around the house with no enthusiasm while dogs are always panting, barking, and wagging their tales. I also feel that cats are less Child Friendly than dogs …..With that being said,  dogs are the way to go whenever you're having a tough time making that decision






           If I had the power to change one thing about my school, it would be the opportunity to have off-campus lunch. It's a good idea because as A:we live in a good neighborhood B:some of the students do not like school lunch so they would have the option to buy something that they like so they would not be hungry. And if you think about it, going to these local stores will keep our neighborhood “alive” because they won't have to worry about closing their businesses since they are going to make money from off-campus lunch




I have a lot of unhealthy habits, some of them include eating ice, sleeping for too long or too little (because there is no in-between for me), eating a lot, losing my glasses, forgetting to put on my contacts,bullying jose, coming home late,going to the gym and then coming home and not doing my homework making all of my exes jealous,  spitting a lot, and showing up to most of my classes late

Something I learned from the CNN student news is that there are a lot of prescription drug overdose, in the fact there is more prescription drug overdose then car crash and shootings, this means we have a problem with medicine in the U.S.

What I would do if I had a plane ticket to go anywhere is take a Family trip, and go to any place my family would want to go, then I would just go somewhere with myself to get some alone time or something to get things off of my mind.

I really can’t remember the last time that I was let down or disappointed because I don’t let things get to me anymore if something happens it happens there is nothing I can do about it but accept what’s happening or going on and keep moving because life goes on and I don’t want to waste time on something that I will get over.

I wish that I was six again because homework was easy the TV had better shows then they do now, everything was easy I didn’t have to clean up nothing or make my own food it’s like I dint have a care in the world, but now things get harder as you get older but I still keep going cause I got family that care for me.

I prefer dogs rather than cats, because I feel like dogs are more active and want to play with you when cats are calm and not really active or does anything they just want you to pet them or go to sleep, but it really depends on the type of person you are if your laid back get a cat if your active get a dog.

Things that comfort me is my bed,momma,grandma,games,music,tv,movie,sports,youtube,cousins, and sleep.

I deserve a day off from school because school is very stressful, I need a day off to relax and clear my mind from everything that’s going on in my life, I just need to chill and let all the stress out.

The door I would go thru is monster Inc door because to me it’s a great movie and have always been my favorite movie as a child and still is now it would be fun to actually meet these character and communicate with them.

I think students should be able to post what they want on their social media, I say this because it’s their lives and they can do what they want with it, what they post doesn’t affect you and if they want to expose themselves then let them.
I would go through all of the paintings because they all look interesting to me, but the painting that I would want to got to the most is the painting with the people al holding umbrellas and a lot of water , I would choose this because it looks very nice.

I liked the Santa university thing because it shows you that people out here actually care about kids and is trying to make the world a better place and make kids out here happy. It is nice to actually see a black person doing this even though it was only 1 black person.

The memory I would put in the bottle is the time me and my cousins and aunties went to Wisconsin dells, I chose this one because this was actually the first time we all did something together as far as going on a trip and while was here I had a good time spending time with them.

I don’t know who is going to win the fight because both of them are about the same weight and look like they have the same strength but I would choose soulja because Chris brown a like skin dude and look soft.

The memory I would bottle up is the Cimorelli concert. I remember half but the other half I don't remember because I didn't record it. I got to meet them too and I'll never forget that day. I still cherish the snapchat videos I made. They're all sisters who formed a band in 2007.I was in the front row and Christina and Lisa touched my hand in the audience. They're my role models becuase they saved me from doing anything. They're always there for their fans. They all follow me on twitter including the band account so I have 7/7 and I got to meet them?! I'm so thankful to be alive.!! Nothing has ever made me so happy.

I think men and women are the same. They both have the same kind of difficulties,like with work and the pressure of others. Some women get treated like slaves. They also have to feel pain to have babies. Men have to hide their emotions so no one knows how they feel. Living both lives seems tough. I have to say that none of them have it easy. Women get feminized against because they're girls for different reasons.

1.     Boredom in school!
               Some ways to avoid the boring class you dread attending are to constantly day dream. Just let your mind take over. Think about whatever comes to mind. Expand every topic to new limits. You might surprise yourself with how much you truly know and what comes to mind. Usually all my favorite things come to mind and combine into one big dream. Before you know it class is over. This class will soon change from the most hated to the most loved. The only bad part is hearing the sound of the ending bell and losing your dream. These dreams have no limits it’s all up to you in the world controlled by your brain.

2)       New Jersey!
               The best place ever is New Jersey. I spent fifteen long years there and they were all amazing. It is truly a great place to be visit or live. I like chicago but no where will ever beat New Jersey. I am a Jersey boy at heart so how could i choose any place over it. The weather is nice too. It’s never too hot or too cold. Certain parts of NJ are not nice like all places every place has its “ghetto’s” but majority of the state is genuinely nice. The best part is the amount of stuff you could do. It is almost impossible to be bored in NJ. This is why NJ is the best place ever !

 3)    UnHealthy habits!
              My worst un healthy habit is what i eat. During the offseason i treat myself. Walking around eating whatever i wish. This is terrible for me and so hard to transition back during the season. When i start to eat like this i feel more lazy and tired but when i diet i feel energized and ready to go. I also just feel out of shape and weak when eating these good tasting deceiving meals. Food is my ultimate weakness in the offseason and lures me into a trap every year.

 4)   Weight room !
           The weight room is my home away from home. The weight room has helped me so much across my life. It was always a way to cope with struggles and problems. The weight room was always there. I use the weight room to help me with my true passion. To go somewhere with football. I truly love the sport. It is what i think i live to do. Football is my ultimate love and this all starts in the weight room.

Bell Ringer - Name
          My mother was the one that named me. I'm not sure if my name really has a meaning behind it. She just thought it was a really good one. I wasn't named after anybody, that I know of. My middle name is Eddie, just a shorter way to call me since some people have a hard time pronouncing.

Bell Ringer - What interests you the most
          What interests me the most is about our ancestors. It's crazy how our generation just keeps going and going, year by year. Somebody from the 80s and 90s must of had the same blood type as you. And the thing that sucks is that you never got to meet them. Soon we will all be ancestros

Bell Ringer - free write
          I just think it's crazy how messed up this world is. All these shootings and innocent deaths that has happened. Nobody deserves to suffer. Nobody deserves pain. We all have a purpose in life, something to achieve. All the money we have spent on war, when we can just use that money for some useful.

Bell Ringer - Picture
          There's a monkey on the loose. Is hanging from a pole. Some dude is trying to help him out but by the look on the monkey's face, he looks very angry. Refuse to get help. Hes about to swing on the guy. Most likely he escaped the zoo and there's a big chase.

Bell Ringer - Bucket List
-Have my own music video
-Have my dream car
-Graduate high school
-Have my own house
-Get a good house
-Get a loyal girl
-Get money
-Be a rapper
-Live life with no regrets

I say i’m more like my mom although my family says that I am more like my dad although I didn’t grow up with him really around. I guess I agree that i’m more like him because in the summer when I see him we automatically bond. My mom says i’m like him in the way that I don’t show much affection. But that’s how I am. I can be going through so much but just smile and act like nothing. Talking about my dad today is actually his birthday I don’t even know if I wanna call this year. Once I had finally felt close to him because of my 15 I messed it up by going to a party on halloween weekend. Which lead him to not wanting to talk to me at all.



My life story

 Abigail Beltran           My life story


"Love doesn't just sit there, like a stone; it has to be made, like bread, remade all the time, made new." I picked this quote because it's explaining how love has to take time and be made by 2 people and there has to be effort put into it so it can be called love. This quote caught my attention because it was comparing love to bread and I never thought love would be compared to bread. I love how it explains the significance of love. The quote tells or informs the readers that love isn't just something you mess around with it's something that has to be taken serious and not as a joke because people actually feel that shit.


I just want this day to be over already because it's friday and I wanna go home and take a nap because i'm so tired and stressed out. Also i'm kind of excited for this weekend because my cousins from Indiana might come over and i haven't seen them in a while. And when they come over my whole family comes over my house and we usually have a little gathering and it's really fun because we play bingo and max out on fast food like pizza, chips, wings, etc.



If my bestfriend was on life support for the rest of her life and she wants me to pull the plug I would be so sad because she choose me and that's a very hard decision just letting go of your best friend like that after everything you both have been through. This would make me very upset because I don't think I would be able to do it, but if she chose me it's for a reason because she knew I'd do the right thing for her. I would prefer to pull the plug than see her suffer and go through all that pain.



What comforts me is listening to music or watching a movie. These things comfort me because when i'm mad/upset music makes me calm and most importantly my best friend Natalia because she's always there for me when no one else is and she been there for me through thick and thin. I wouldn't count on anyone else, well actually that's a lie because my mom is like my best friend too. Watching a movie calms me down too because it helps me keep my mind off of things and keeps me entertained.



My favorite show is grey's anatomy and shameless because honestly there's always something unexpected that's going to happen. Either someone dies in greys or just leaves. It's an intense show and I recommend it because there's a lot of drama too. They help save lives and shows true partnership in parts of the episodes. In shameless it's a family that is not so wealthy and they do anything to get money I mean ANYTHING, but after all a lot of emotional scenes happen in that show and everything that family went through when they were young.

Memory I would save (Eduardo Lopez)

Well one memory I would save would be the time that I went to Wisconsin dells. I would open this memory and go back into it SO MANY TIMES!! because it was a really great experience and I loved everything about it. It was so exciting even though we spent like about 4 hours on the road just to get there. However when we got there I was immediately all over the place! I got on all the water slides and roller coasters there was and I had the best time of my life.

Six flags

When I went to six Flags I thought it would be bigger and have bigger rides. I just wish that there was more rides that i would've enjoyed. I went to cedar point so maybe thats why I don't think positive of six flags. Everyone always spoke positive about it even though I had fun the rides at cedar point were way better. Also, the food wasn't the best, I mean not that that the food at an amusement park would be any good anyway.

Miguel Castillo - Independent Writing 1-31-17

I have so many questions about the future. Not specifically my future. But the future of humanity. Can we survive for thousands of years as a species?  Or become extinct in less than 100 years because of nuclear warfare? Because of powerful governments fighting over who's the best. I know my life wont last 100 years and I could die at 99 years old, or I could die in a year or two. Life can be different if we just understood everyone's opinion and not correct or judge them for thinking differently, even if their thinking is wrong. Life can be beautiful if we can drop the guns in Chicago, and tell the world to stop dropping their bombs in the middle east. Instead of expanding military power, all nations should come together and expand ideas of how to save our only home from collapsing and prevent ourselves from destroying life itself. I want to live to find out that the end is nowhere near and we still have time to send people to nearby planets and colonize them. To turn planets like Mars into a world where it can support life just like ours. To know that traveling between planets is like traveling between countries on a plane. I want to live to know that we are capable of traveling out into space and explore galaxies and universes. I want my great grand children to carry my name for hundreds of years. If we all become extinct, there will be nothing left to remember our names or how we lived or who we were. The only things we'll leave behind is our bones and weapons.

Ultimate Plane Ticket = Anywhere I Want To Go

If I had an ultimate plane ticket for a month I would travel to Germany to see the new aspects and differences they have from here. To see their culture and tourist attractions. Taste the food and make new friends. When I make those new friends I would hopefully build a long lasting friendship and make my time in Germany more fun and there would always be something fun to look forward to everyday. I would most likely stay in Germany and buy a house there so I could do something out of my comfort zone, and it has also been my number one place to visit for a long time. Staying in Germany would make all my worries go away and I would create a new life in Germany. I don't want nothing or no one holding me back from having a good vacation even if it's by myself. I want to make good memories, ones that I can always remember and know that I did something amazing in my life and was able to take the risk of going overseas. I want to learn their language, perhaps become fluent and make it my 3rd language I can speak. The tourist attractions really attract me because it is a new aspect with new people and new opportunities. It is 7 hours ahead of our time and I wouldn't hesitate to take up this offer.

Which parent I think I resemble (Eduardo Lopez)

I think that from both of my parents I resemble more my father both physically and mentally. I say this because well physically I really look like my dad especially from the nose and from the eyebrows (in the sense that my eyebrows go downwards towards my nose just like his) Mentally I resemble my father because I was taught by him to never just sit around the house without doing anything at all.Probably because of the fact that he always has me doing work around the house.

Freestyle Friday

I really want a shih-tzu and my older brother and I have been really trying to convince my mom to get one for us.We had a shih-tzu when we were growing up but we gave it away because my mom didn't want it anymore. We promised our mom that we would take care of it. I hope that she''ll at least think about it. I was only 5 years old when we had a dog and don't remember the experience as much. So hopefully one day I get to experience it again.

Jocelyn Cisneros

My quote

I picked the quote "I think best when I have a pencil in my hand.'" I agree with this quote because I feel incomplete without a pencil in my hand. I always have preferred a pencil over a pen. I can make mistakes with a pencil and erase them to correct it. Without a pencil and paper in front of me it's hard for me to think of something without actually writing it out. Writing in pencil is something that helps me remember what I said.

If I were forced to get a tattoo (Eduardo Lopez)

If I were forced to get a tattoo today I would probably get a tattoo of both of my parents names on each of my forearms. I would get this because my parents mean a lot to me and I think that by putting their name on me (which will never erase) I will get to show them how much they mean to me in my own way. I wouldn't feel bad about being forced to get a tattoo however I know that if it were up to me I would simply just never get any type of tattoos.

who are you more like? your dad or mom?

Nathalie Navarro 

I am more like my dad because we have the same birth mark, were the same height, we understand each others jokes, we both love kids,kids love us, we like singing in the car,we are very loud, we protect our family no matter what,we are loud talkers,we always share secrets,we smile a lot that some people get annoyed because how happy we are, and lastly we can tell each other anything and talk for hours without getting tired of each other. I guess I can say my dad is my befriend.

I wish I were 10 again (Eduardo Lopez)

I wish I were 10 again so I could finally stay home on the weekends and get up early on Saturday mornings to watch Saturday morning cartoons while eating cereal. I wish I was 10 again so I could of started boxing at that age and would of been a more experienced fighter by now. Lastly I wish 
I was 10 again so I would be able to see myself grow up and graduate from 8th grade and relive all those memories all over again.

Who I Resemble

Ever since I was a little girl my family always told me that my mom and I were identical. so I think that I resemble my mom in both ways. Our personalities are the same because we're both shy. My mom and I are very shy when it come to talking to new people but we get used to it. I'd rather resemble my mom anyway for various reasons. My mom means a lot to me and has always been there for me. She just inspires me everyday.
