Back To School People Thought
851 wordsDuring all of high school, I seemed as if I were hiding behind a mask. When I was at home I was a totally different person. At school I was trying to be a person who could fit in, but the more I tried the more it didnt seem to work. Everywhere I went I would censor what I said depending on my surroundings and the people that were with me. Most of the time I would not say anything at all because I was afraid of being embarrassed. I would always have to change my mode when different people were ar...

Smoking One Drug Marijuana
708 wordsAs I take back a step and look at all the wrong that encompasses our world, the one thing that sticks out to me the most is the problems that we have with drugs.

Reading And Writing Reading Writing
1,704 wordsI became literate through many different means. There are three aspects of literacy: spoken language, reading, and written language. My journey to becoming literate started from birth.

Yet these above average students are frequently taking part in the same dishonest conduct of the ordinary students, performing the task better and getting away with it more than the regular students. Explaining why honors students are better at cheating is difficult because every cheating student follows the same unwri...

Half An Hour Pineal Gland
605 wordsSLEEPY DAYS ARE OVER I have a dream said Martin Luther King Jr. But why was he able to have a dream?

At my high school on Southern Whidbey Island, school starts at the unbearable early time of 7: 30 am. That is just too early to start school.
