Portfolio - Future

I like to wonder sometimes about what the future has for me. My goals for my future is to finish high school and college, and major in Engineering and Mechanics. I want to have a 1970 Mustang, and a range Rover. Have a big or little house by the beach or in the open field. I would Love to have a family in the future. I've learned that you have to set high goals for you, and really do what you need to do to achieve them. I know that in order to achieve my goals, all I really need is a good education and some one that will be there to support me all the way through. I have a lot of people who know what I am capable of, and are always there to help no matter what. I believe I will achieve my goals because I know that if set my mind to it, I will eventually make it come to life.

Romeo & Juliet - Love at First Sight

I do not believe in love at first sight. For example I believe it takes time to get to know a person and realy fall in lone with their person and way of being. Another reason is because you don't realy know anyone till you get the chance to live with them for a period of time. Additionally, once the two persons get to realy know each other, then they will truly know if its love or not, they might not like the way his or her partner does somethings. Romeo and Juliet's love is not sincere because they fell in love the second minute they saw each other, with out taking a their time or breath to realy know each other.

Personal Changes Blog Paragraph

At the beggining of my freshman year, I was careless about school, getting in trouble andshy. Now I am a little more into school, getting my work done and acheiving my goals. This shows that whatever I choose to do, I can acheive. This also shows that time has made me grown up more and take responsibilty for my actions. In addition, school has becomed a better place for me to get away from the problems and bad situations. This also shows that, I have improved in my academic grades and citizinship. This also shows that, a few months ago I wasn't very different, though I was very shy. By my senior year, I hope to be less shy, with all my credits, open-minded and way more outgoing.

SPA Policy Blog Paragraph

One policy that I wish could be changed is have internet in the cumputers that we have in our rooms. Currently, this policy says that we can have computers in our rooms, but with out internet. One reason it should be changed is because we need computers to do our homework. Also, most of the time kids in SPA don't have anything to do because they re in the middle of no where, and they can't go on outings because their in 2-hour. If the SPA derictor does not put internet in our rooms is to stop us from going into some bad websites, they can simply block the websites in the internet. If this policy was changed, I would spend more time in my room doing my homework and makeing up late work.

Spring Break Blog Paragraph

 During spring break, my mood was awesome. For example, I got to spend a lot of time with my family and do fun stuff with them. This shows how much I love my family and being with them. This also shows that getting out of SPA for at least a week can be the best thing ever. In addition I got to eat some freshly made Ice cream and pizza. This shows how much I love food, and especially when I don't pay for it. Looking back, it would of been much better if I had spent time with my best friend and my brother because I miss them the most. My mood for the entire spring break was relaxing, calmed and just happy to be with my family.

Trayvon Martin Paragraph

George Zimmerman should be charged with murder for shooting Trayvon Martin. For example Zimmerman was fixated on crime and focused on young, black males,  this shows that Trayvon could or is another one of his victims. This shows that Zimmerman was targeting Martin for his color, I'm not sure but I think you call this racism. Zimmerman called the police 46 times sense Jan. 1, 2011. This guy is either very insecure or a total racist. Additionally in April 201, Zimmerman called the police to report a suspicious black male, 7-9 years old and skinny build. This shows that the guy is a total freak, and should probably be told not to call the police more than 3 times a month just when he feels threatened.

: Rain, Vacation, or Zombies vs Vampires Blog Post Paragraph

Raining day are relaxing. For example when it rains in San Diego, almost everyone is happy beccause San Diego is a dessert type city. When it rains most people don't do anything, for example some people don't work on rainy days if their job is construcution or outside restaurants. They stay home and relax, and maybe listen to some music and drink hot chocolate. This shows that rainy days in San Diego are always something positive. The next time it rains, I hope it rains the whole time so I can relax and listen to calm music.

Testing Thoughts Paragraph

I feel that that you really have to study the California High School Exam. I know that the two main subjects are english and math. Im not really concerned abou the math part, except for the Geometry problems because I'm not good at Geometry, Im a little more  concerend about english because I don't remember much about all those rules or much about it. I'm confident that I'll get most of the math part right because other than the Geomery, I'm really good at math. When I see my CAHSEE scores, I hope to feel proud of myself and to have other people be proud for me too.

Technology in School Paragraph

   Teachers use  technology to help me learn. For example in 7th grade, my teacher used a game on the computer called "Learning Upgrade". It helped me because it gave us practice in algebra 1, so we would use that program everyday to help us with our math. I remember she made us complete a level every week until we got to level 100. The computers were a daily  thing, actually the only thing we did on the computers was "Learning Upgrade". I liked it because it actually helped me more and I understood it more than I understood my teacher because I knew if I got a problem wrong it would make me do it over and over again until I got it right. Well it had patience, something my teacher didn't have.
               Back in 7th grade  for most of my classes we used computers. For example in my math support class, my teacher had us work on the computers too. We had another game that helped us with math, it helped us with counting money and using the time table. My teacher just gave us instructions on what to do and  what website to go to. Since my school was IB, technology was part of every class everyday. Well that was the point of being IB, involving technology in the learning proccess. We were encouraged to use it.
       In 7th and 8th grade science class we used computers almost everyday. We would watch videos that had to do with the human body, plants, earth or the solar system. We had to do research on whatever subject we were studying, or when we had to study for a test. I remember my 7th grade science teacher gave us homework online, we had a deadline. So she would give us  two days to complete it and turn it in and after the deadline we couldn't turn it in.I think that was the only thing I hated about my science class. In my eight grade science class it was a little different, he had us watch "Brain Pops" almost every day and after we finished watching it,  we would take the Brain Pop quiz and email the scores to him. After that he would give us a test on the Brain Pops and everything else.
       Throughout most of my eigth grade year, my english teacher had us use the computers almost everyday. Since it was an english class, we did essays most of the time. It was every week thay we had to do an essay on different topics, for example I remember the first essay we had to do was about a move that had changed your life. I of course wrote about moving out of my mom's house. It only takes a day to write your rough-draft and  two days to correct it, if its a five paragraph essay. Most of the week we would usually do our warm up and then right after that take the computers out.
      You can see how everyday technology developes more and more. We use it more and more whether we use computers, ipads, phones, laptops and even ipods. It actually helps us learn more using technology than having to listen to our teachers go over lessons, homework and classwork. Students like to get to point most of the time and technology would give us more opportunities. In conclusion I think teachers in the future should use technology more in and out of class.

Imagery in Poetry Blog Post Paragraph

One day when I was at home and when " Myspace" was around I was sitting down browsing when I suddenly got a message from my boyfriend. The message said, "I'm sorry but it's not working out." While I was reading the message I smelled green enchiladas that my mom was cooking  and the smell just carried me away from that breaking heart message. After 10 minutes of starring into the message, my mom called me up to dinner. The taste of those delicious enchiladas made me forget completely about my teared up feelings. When I went back to the computer to reread the message, while I was replying back I felt my fingers were starting to forget where the keyboard's letters where. That day my mom was in a good mood and she played one of her favorite Cd's by Marco Antonio Solis. The song she played just carried me away to a happy place. After that song I felt better than ever.
