Back In Pembroke Pines is where my highshool years were spent. Some of the kids who were still in school had obviously not grown up, failing to see their immaturity and continuously wrapping themselves in drama. All, especially the seniors, seemed to place themselves on top of this invisible pyramid and found it to be 'cool.' Maybe it's the town they are still living in..with no thoughts that their are still many levels left on the pyramid to climb. To some, highschool never ends.

How to finish my essay

Definetly the first thing to do would be to reread it because i only just wrote it and moved on. I need to go over it and see what details might need to be added or what material is meaningless and take it out. Another paragraph in total might be good to add just for length and a little more depth. Another important thing would be to make sure all the paragraphs flow, that the end of one makes sense with the start of the other. If not, maybe some rearrangement would help. The final thing would be a spelling/grammar check. voila

AHHHHH!!!!! I really don't get how people voluntary choose to be an English major, (no offense Dr. McClure), but I just don't find the point in reading a book such as the Everyday Writer. I mean don't get me wrong, i love to read novels, but reading a book about reading just seems a waste of time. It doesn't pull you in, it has no hook, and doesn't feel like you're progressing whatsoever throughout it. I feel like I'm running on a treadmill, it gives you the illusion that you're going somewhere but in the end, you're standing in that same exact place.

Greatest Achievement

My greatest achievement...In highschool i was apart of the varsity water polo team for three years, two of those i was captain. Before i joined, i had never even heard of the sport and even more did not expect it to be as difficult as it was. The training, practices, and games, the two of which involving guys, were all more than enough to make you quit within the first week but i stuck it out. Senior year i was named MVP and also too, a Broward County Scholarly Athlete, me being one of the eight chosen from our school. This was such a fulfilling moment because in the past i had a tendency to quit things when they got tough but it showed me that if you just keep pushing on, the reward will be great.

My writing process is probally the most time-consuming, repetitive activity I do. There really is no palce or time, it's always random or usually on the day before it's due...Yea procrastination is not advocated by teachers but i find it helps me get it done and successfully most of the time. The worst is just sitting down and starting it. I constantly think and rethink and rethink again each and every phrase, and sentences, woo, get me really going. Normally I'm satisfied with my writing but i have a bad habit of making my writings too short.
