Final Post

I can't believe this is our last post! A whole semester has already gone by. Sophomore year is already halfway over with. This also means finals are right around the corner. This is a very stressful time for me because I have a lot of hard classes I have to study for and lots of study guides I have to fill out. I am going to miss computer class next semester. It was a lot of fun, and I learned a lot. Speech will be hard for me because I don't like speaking in front of classes, and I stutter when I get really nervous. I can't wait for Christmas break. It is going to be really fun, and I won't have to worry about tests or homework for once. I can just hang out with my friends. I hope everyone has a happy holidays!

Winter scene

Winter

My favorite season is winter! I love when it snows. Going sledding with my friends is fun. We always go to the golf course. It is really hilly and bumpy. I love drinking hot chocolate and bundling up under blankets. I like dressing up warm and building snowmen. My sisters and I always have a contest to see who can build the best one. Having snowball fights with other people are both exciting and painful. The things I don't like about winter is the cold. If there is not snow, I do not like being cold. I also don't like ice because I always seem to somehow slip and fall really hard! Overall, winter is a great season.

Things I am thankful for

I am thankful for many things in my life. It is hard to narrow it down to just a few. The most important things I am thankful for are my family and friends. Without my family and friends, I would not be the person I am today. I am also glad that everyone in my family is safe and healthy. This is very important to me. Another thing I am thankful for is God. He is the reason I am alive. With Him, anything is possible. One other thing I am thankful for is the great school I go to. Peoria Notre Dame is a great high school to get an education at. It is also a safe and friendly environment. I have made many friends and memories here, and I hope to make a lot more! The holidays always help me to take the time to realize all of the things I am thankful for.

Newscast Project Experience

I thought the newscast project was somewhat difficult. The directions were hard to understand and were a little unclear. We are still working on it. Right now, we are trying to figure out how to add our Day of the Dead video we found about their traditions. Our video basically sums up what we talked about in our newscast. The Day of the Dead is a very interesting Mexican Holiday. It is kind of like Halloween for us because people dress up. In the end, I think our video will be really good. We have been working really hard, and, so far, it looks pretty good. I can't wait until it is done!
