Children Foundation.

Our school is having a donation for the kids who have been taken to a shelter for emergency reasons and didn't have time to pack extra clothing or toys. I think that this is a good thing to do and that schools and more people should do this more often. People out there should care more about people who are in a bad situation. I think that when people do a good deed then that deed will come back and they will get rewarded for what they have done. I think in this generation most of the kids my age are too spoiled to care about other people. Some people in this generation wouldn't be able to survive in the world if we didn't have our parents or grandparents. I think that people should care more about other people who actually have problems instead of themselves who don't have near as big problems as the kids or families that need help or are poor and homeless. We have problems like aw man my hair doesn't look good today or my mom won't buy that for me or little things like that, but the families who actually have problems like they lost there job and don't have enough money to pay for there rent or that they lost all there clothes and personal items in a server accident or something like that. I don't see why people will listen to our little problems but they won't even care to listen to there BIG problems. These days I think that people are just too selfish and that they only care about themselves. When I get my own money and start my own life I would love to start a Foundation for these families and kids that are in need. If I would ever win the lottery I would love to give atleast half or more of my money to St. Lukes Cancer or any Charity or Orphanage House. People all over the world say If I had the money or WHEN I get the money or I PROMISE I will do it later. All those words, when, If,and Promise are all breakable words. I think that people are just so untrust worthy and today this world is filled with Ifs an and buts.

Skitaway Island

The 7th grade is going on a trip to Skitaway Island.Mrs.Riggins and Mrs.Chapman are taking us. I am so excited.We are leaving tomorrow morning at 8:00.When we get there we are doing activities,which the UGA students are helping out with.One of our activities are going to be walking through the marsh.It will be nasty but fun at the same time.Another actvivtie we are going to do is The Ghost Walking tour.I know that is going to be fun!Mrs.Riggins has roomed us with different people.I am rooming with Kaitlyn,and Heather.I am so excited!!! :] I know we will have a great time. Some of the things we have to bring are Sleeping bag or sheets to sleep on,A little back pack to carry your science notebook and stuff in,water,and stuff like that. Everyone in my class is going except blake.I think it is going to be a one and a life time to experience the way we are.I wish he could have came.It would have been even better with all of our classmates there.

Officer Colquitt

Officer Colquitt was our D.A.R.E officer who recently passed away. I think that he was a good influence on people's life.Especially ours.He helped us with our problems and was a good friend to us.I am sad that he has passed.I will terribly miss him.Monday when we went to his funeral it was really sad.There was a lot of his family and friends there.It was so packed that people were standing up and in the halls of the church.Some of my friends had went to his visitation and said that his lion was buried with him.The lion was a great meaning also.When he would bring the lion to our class everyone would fight over it.The reason we fought over it was because we got to hold it and braid its hair.Ha!He helped people through thick and thin.He helped people realize that the world has better things than to do drugs and get into violence.Of Colquitt died Saturday of a massive Heart Attack.D.A.R.E was a good thing to do and he did it GREAT! When we turn around and say his name and call for him he will not be there.When we try to find him driving down the road we will not see him.I think we will think he is still here for a while until it gets into reality.I think everyone will miss him DEEPLY.We LOVE YOU Officer Colquitt

Hate

What is the real meaning of hate? People you is it as if it didn't mean anything.I think hate is a strong word.When people say they hate you I dont think it's good.The next minute the person you told that too could be gone.People get it mixed up with like.Hate let's see.I dont actullay think I hate someone. I might dislike them but I dont HATE them. That is a strong word.If I said I hate you,What would you think? I wouldn't know what to think.When you have a friend yall get into a lot fights rite? I know Kaitlyn and I do.Then I will say to her I hate you or she will tell me that she hates me,then ten minutes laters we will be sorry and be making up to each other.
I don't think people should ever say HATE to anyone becouse the next minute they could be gone if you say that I hate You! :]

People are different and others don't understand

People are different in lots of different ways. Some people may like rap music,some people may like country,hip-hop or even hard class rock!People also dress different,act different and are just plain different.I know I hear a lot of people say oh welll she is preppy or I don't like her becouse of her clothes. It doesn't matter what you were or anything on the outside. Some poeple say I don't like him or her becouse they hang out with Ayla or Cameron or Nancy.(just giving an example.)I think people should look more into the inside of a person.I know you have heard the saying Don't Judge a Book by it's Cover. I know I have,and sometimes I don judge books.It means the same way as people.I might look at someone on the street and think oh they dress like that or they have there nose peirced so they are mean and scary. Well you never know they could be the kindest person in the whole wide world.When people judge you, I think you should just walk away. Don't listin to them at all.People don't know anything about these people and they start talking about them like it jsut hit the news or something. I hate it when people do that.People also judge people by if they are smart.I hate that also.They call them geeks behind there back and all kind of mean names. It is just plain mean.People need to get it in to there brain that it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, It mateers what is on the inside.

Killing Mr.Griffin

We are Reading a book called Killing Mr.Griffin.I think it is very mysterious and a kind of in way thinking book.These adolescents that go to a high school were they are seniors at,try to pull a prank. Well to start off I thought it was okay to do a school prank on one of your teachers,but killing them is another thing.I guess people don't know how far they should go or when they should stop.That is how a lot of people get hurt or killed.Kids and maybe even adults think it is fun and wanna keep going. Like I said before they don't know when to stop.That is like a symbol to the kids in Killing Mr.Griffin.Mr.Griffin said in the bock how his wife and his students we the most important things in his life. Well just because your teacher is hard and mean in the class doesn't mean they hate you.Mr.griifin loved his students like he loved his own kids.I think that people don't really notice how people actually feel about you. You just look what is on the outside and never really pay attention to them when they are trying to explain how they feel because you think you know they don't like you.Just today I got a message from my friend that i haven't really been talking too. Early I had been in a huge fight with her. Now today I found out she really wanted to be my friend and was looking on the inside of me not the outside.In the book,one girl named Betsey was boasting about how her father was on the county commissioner.One I don't like people who brag because it is just like someone saying give me attention .I want attention.In the book Betsey was like that. She was already the Head cheerleader so she was already pretty much popular and everyone wanted to be her friend and giver her attention.I really like the book we are reading. I think it is one of my favorite books so far.Mrs.chapman always stops us at the most exciting part of the book, but over all it is a GREAT book.

Top 5 books

My top five books are The Westing Game,The Steps,Revenge of the Wannabees,A Walk to Remember,and Surprise Endings. The first book we read in 6Th grade.It was so good.I liked it because it told a story about how family fight over stupid things.Exspecially over money.I think family should atleast agree to comprimise than fight.Maybe agree to split it 3 ways.It would depend on how many family memebers you have.The Steps is like holes 2.It has the same people in it.It is about how these friends who spent there time in summer camp regain eachothers frinendship.I thought about it alot after I read it.It doesn't matter if you were split up for a few months, If it was a good and true friend they would always be in touch.Revenge of the Wannabees was about how these friends are the head honchos of the school.The clique meets this girl named alisha and wants to be in there clique.What I don't get is that they won't let her be in it.They do mean things to her.I thought that was mean.They also try to steal her boyfriend Cam.The guy she wants to go out with.A Walk to Remeber was about how this boy grew up with this girl named Jamie.She was a church fanatic and he falls in love with her.I liked it because it was a love story.It tells about how these different people can fall in love so easily.You would have never known.I think that it doesn't matter if they are cute or ugly or just plain jane,It depends on what is on the outside.That is what the boy relized in Jamie.
I read all o fthese books and really enjoyed them.
