Important Lesson

I have had many valuable lessons that I have learned from in my life. One time, I didn't study for a really big test because I had been super busy the night before. When it came time for the test, I did horrible! I got the grade I deserved. This taught me to study for all of my tests and quizzes, no matter how busy I am the night before. My grades have now improved because I study hard for everything and always turn my homework in on time.

Upcoming Report Card

I am not that nervous about the upcoming report card. I am just a little disappointed. I have been working so hard, but i just can't get an A in 3 of my classes, no matter how hard I work. I have at least a B+ or higher, so that makes me pretty happy. I am struggling in Spanish- Zidrich, Lit(H)-Laird, and Church History-Brown. I have good grades, and I always try hard. If I do bad on one test, I study harder for the next one. As long as my parents are happy about my grades, so am I. I try and check my grades online every week, so I know how I am doing in each individual class. So far this year, i am doing fairly well.

Peoria Logos

I really liked some of these logos but others i did not care for.
My first choice was:

This picture was my favorite. It stood out the most and caught my attention. I also like how colorful and creative it is.
My second choice was:

This picture also caught my attention. The way it is designed is interesting, and it is colorful.
My third choice:

This was my other favorite logo. It is very unique. To me it looks like a moving wave and reminds me of the beach. I also like the colors in it.
These were the three logos I voted for, and I hope one of them is chosen for the Peoria's logo.

iphoto Project

This week we have been working on an iphoto project. At first, it was hard, but once we learned how to do it it was really easy. I have had to start my project over twice because it got deleted. Some of the letters were hard to find, so I had to look them up online at home. I did my first and last name and six pictures that described me. I am almost done with my project, and so far it looks really good!

Physical Development

Physical goals are very important in every person's life. I plan to stay healthy and in shape this year. Since I do cheerleading and soccer, I need to eat healthy, which for the most part I do, except I will sneak some sweets in here and there. I also run to stay physically fit and keep up my endurance. The way you treat your health now afeccts how your health is later on in your life. This is why my health is so important to me. Staying healthy makes me feel good about myself and raises my self-esteem. This year, I plan to continue the healthy path I am on.

Homecoming Newsletter Progress

The newsletter that Kelly, Sophie and I have worked on for the past week is finally complete! There are four articles that we wrote, and we put a bunch of pictures on it. We uploaded pictures from my camera and Sophie's phone from all of the different Homecoming week activities. Our newsletter is really cool. At first, we had a lot of trouble printing it, but we finally got it to print today. The hardest part of the newsletter was finding out all of the scores from the different sports from Homecoming week. Overall, this project was really fun, and has been by my favorite project!
