Hi, my name is Zuly Danitza Morales. I prefer to include my middle name only because I wish my first name was longer. Long names look prettier in cursive. I am 17 years old, but I’ll be turning 18 sooner than I can imagine. I am easy to have a conversation with but I’m bad at being part of clubs in school, I don't know why. I am very self conscious and I hate making mistakes but when I make huge ones I like to write about them. Writing comes easy to me. I rather write out my feelings than talk about them and this is probably because I get to exaggerate my emotions when I’m writing. I'm a drama queen.
ReplyDeleteI am part of a pastoral family; so church is an everyday thing for me. I belong to a worship and youth group in church; it's the only place where I'm not shy. Church is very important to me and I’m very active in the ministry. Some day that won’t be the case though because there will come a time where my interest in nursing will take over. I want to have a hands-on career and work in a hospital where I help and meet new people every single day. I actually enjoy change, and I might be sort of unstable about my emotions and such but my love for church, helping others, writing…and food might never change.

Hey. My name is Michelle Van Ness. I’m one of the youngest students in my grade at 15, 16 is coming soon, though. What I do in my free time is write, draw, play tennis, and play the sax and French horn, flute. My favorite of the four is well I don’t really have a favorite so I guess all of them are my favorite activity. Personality. Well some describe me as crazy and funny. I agree with funny but crazy not so much. I’m not like some people who are insanely crazy. I love smiling and laughing though and I’m the caring type. I like helping people out and being friendly. My family. Ok you ready for the list? I have three siblings a mom and a dad. Not that hard right well I have three cousins on my mom’s side and four on my dad’s side, and an aunt and uncle on each side. Now I have sixsecondcousinstwoolderauntsmyonesecondcousinhasthree kidsandahusbandanothersecondcousinhasababygirlandherboyfriendandmyothersecondcousinhasawifeandtwokidstherearegrandparentsoneachsideandagreatgrandparentthentherearetwosetsofmysecondcousinsparents thentheresthatrandomkidalexthatalwayscomeswhenmytwocousinscome... Did you get all that? Well if you didn’t there are 40 people in all. Yeah I have a lot of family…and that’s just on my dad’s side. I won’t even get started on my mom’s side. I could be typing it for hours.
ReplyDeleteSo things that are important to me are my family, friends, music, the Bible, and animals. Oh my friend ok I have seven friends in school and one outside of school. They are so amazing and make me laugh and feel better about myself. Plans for the future are going to college with pre-vet and ROTC and becoming an Animal Care Specialist in the Army Vet Core. Let’s just say that when I tell people that their all like “Say what?” and “I can’t see you wanting to do that.” Well for people who doubt me I just told practically the whole world so it’s gonna happen. Why I write? Well main reason…I have to, because Kupiec would fail me if I didn’t and you don’t want to see me when I failed something…not really. The real reason is because I love to. It helps my mind clear and I love writing down thoughts or story ideas and sharing my stories with people, especially when they comment my work. It makes me feel like I’m good at it which I love the feeling of so why wouldn’t I write.

My name is Lisa Chavez. I’m 16 my birthday is September 9. I enjoy to write and to read. I have a bubbly personality. I usually always smile and it takes me a long time to get mad or for someone to get under my skin. I never have a problem with people I am easy to get along with all kinds of people. I love to laugh and have a good time. My family and friends hate my laugh. It’s a very strange laugh “it’s a squeaky to being pushed over and over again,” which my friends say how I sound. I love my family and friends. My family pushes me to do the best I can. They want me to succeed in life. They always encourage me to pursue my dreams. My friends make school much easier. They make me laugh and help me when I have a problem in class. They are willing to take their time out to help me out and it’s very hard to find people like that now a days. They stick with me through everything.
ReplyDeleteMy family and friends are important to me. They mean everything to me. They help me laugh and they let me be the true me. I don’t have to act like someone I’m not. They are okay with me being me and don’t judge me. We may fight like cats and dogs but at the end of the day we always get along. They support me with my dreams of becoming a pediatrician. They give me confidence that I can become a pediatrician; this is what I plan on becoming in a couple of years. In a couple of years I want to be enjoying my life and then settling down with my best friend. I want to get married and have a total of three kids. I want my husband and I to always have the teenage love. I never want that love to go away. The love will probably be explained in our vows. I want to write my own vows. I have a very creative mind. I write because I’m not restrained. I can do a piece of writing the way I want to do it. There is no one that can hold me back. My writing flows out of me and it’s very hard to get a midblock. Writing is meant for me and makes me feel free.

Birthday: September 9
They call me Gina Bachorik most of the time, although I’m referred to as G-Money on the occasion. At church I am actually known as Triple G. I am currently a senior and I have many, many interests. I play tennis in the fall and usually track and field in the spring, but I have dabbled in swimming, softball, and cross country. I suppose I could be described as a dabbler then. I love to watch movies and just television in general and I am a huge fan of comedy—including anything from skits to stand-up. My family always asks me what I want to do in college or what I’m interested in, but I can never give a straight answer because I just don’t know. When I turn twenty-one, I want to go clubbing across America with my cousins, but I also want to travel the world as a whole with my mom and sister to see the UK as well as the Mediterranean where my mom’s side of the family is from. One day I would like to speak Albanian, Greek, Italian, and French, but for now, I should probably get more familiar with my native language. I write because it allows me to have adventures that I can’t actually have. Writing is to me what reading is to other people. One of my many goals as of now is to be able to hold my breath for up to three minutes for snorkeling purposes.

My name is Ashley, middle name is Cierra. I’m 15 years old. I have 1 sibling, his name is Tj. We are 5 years apart which makes him 10. I have a very outgoing personality for the most part. I can be shy at times when I’m around new people but I warm up to people quick and all the shyness goes away. I have a pretty positive outlook at life, not much of a negative person. I’m a sweetheart and softy when it comes down to it. I love spending time with friends and family. In my free time I don’t really do much, I just do what most people do; watch TV, listen to music, I’m on my phone a lot, and hang out with friends. I’ll read here and there, but that’s not much of a common thing that I do. I recently got into drawing a lot, so I’ve been doing that a lot in my free time. As for sports I’m not much of a sporty person. I did competitive cheer for a while that was tons of fun and I did cheering for the high my freshman year. I’m not really sure why I didn’t try out again for this year, I kind of regret it but there’s always next year. I took a short interest in soccer but that didn’t last that long. I rather just be in several school clubs. In the future I hope to become an elementary teacher. I love little kids and I just love teaching others things and helping them. In my free time I’ll sometimes write to express myself and feelings but for the most part I’m only writing for school. I enjoy writing things that I want and things where I can show my creative side in writing.

My name is Melissa and I’m sixteen years old. My favorite activity is looking at pictures of Trey Songz and going on his official website which is treysongz.com. A lot of people tell me I have a very bubbly personality. If I feel comfortable around the people I’m with, I’m outgoing and friendly. I love to have fun with my friends and I like to go out. Most of the time, I’m in a good mood and I love to make others happy.
ReplyDeleteI value a lot of things in my life. The most important thing to me is my family. I have my mom, my sister and my brother. My sister and I are very close and we are always together. Growing up, we did not get along but now that were older, she became one of my best friends. My best friends name is Gigi. We are very close and I consider her like family. We are together every weekend and we go out a lot. Something that is very important to me is Trey Songz. He is an R&B singer and we are going to get married. My future plans are to live happily ever after with Trey Songz and have a lot of babies.

My name is Nassan R. Anderson, and no I won’t tell you my middle name; I am 16 I was born on April 25th. My favorite activity is football it’s the love of my life it means everything to me I do not know what I would do without it. I am a very confident, completive, compulsive athlete. With a strong sense of integrity and I’m also generous sometimes. My friends and family are essential to my lifestyle; they support me in everything and anything I do. Through the good and the bad my family and friends remain, further more they are the most important thing in my life without a doubt. My plans for the future as of right now because they are subjected to change if necessary; my plans are to attend a University college, possibly obtain a scholarship to help pay for tuition and also to play college football. I somewhat enjoy writing because it helps me express my thoughts.

Heyo readers! My name’s Chuck Kemple. Charles, Charlie, Chuck, Chuckles, Chuckus Ignitus, these are just a few names that I go by. My arch nemesis, Gramatically Incorrect Girl, has somehow weaseled her way into college. Without her to poke fun at, I’m stuck with another Kate who writes stories about the boogeyman being Christopher Walken and living under her bed. CALLED OUT. There are plenty of reasons why I write. I write because I read all of these crazy adventure stories and I want to get in on the action, I write because I catch some great creative flow, I write because every now and then videogames get boring, and mostly I write because I’m bored.

My name is Emily Nieliwocki and I am sixteen years old but I’ll be seventeen in a few weeks. I have one sibling, an older brother named Al. My favorite activity is watching friends because it’s my favorite TV show. I don’t have a serious personality. I consider myself to have a good sense of humor. My friends and family are important to me. I like to spend time with my friends because we have a lot of fun and laugh a lot. I have six friends that I am close with and we all sit together at lunch and talk about the craziest things. My best friend is Megan and I have known her since fifth grade we met playing softball and we have been friends ever since. I can tell her anything and we have so much fun together. I also like spending time with my family because I can also have fun with my family. I love spending time with my cousins, but they live in Florida so I rarely get to see them.
ReplyDeleteSomething’s that are important to me are my family and friends. My education is something else I find important because without a good education I will not have a good future. In the future I plan on going to college. I do not know what career I wish to have after college. I would like to live in maybe Arizona or somewhere far away for New Jersey. I write because it helps me improve my education. I don’t really enjoy writing.

My name is David George Johnson, and I just turned 16 in July. There are many things that I enjoy doing but my absolute favorite activity is sports in general. If I had to choose one, it would be basketball. This is because of my personality as well. I am a very competitive and serious person. However, I do have a calm and normal side that loves to have fun and mess around sometimes. I also happen to be very sensitive and emotional to some things depending on what it is. Yes, underneath all of the bravado is a big soft side!
ReplyDeleteFor me, family is always my number one priority, with my mom Joanne, dad George, younger brother Drew and my big sister Kerry. Now it is funny with my sister because she is two years older than me but I am much bigger than she is and I look out for her more than she does for me. She is my older yet smaller sister. My friends are a huge part of my life as well. They keep me relaxed and we always have a great time together. The friends I have had since kindergarten are Dan and Isabeau, Rob who I met shortly into fifth grade, and Al-Taron who I met shortly into seventh grade. All of these years later, we are all still as close as we have ever been. A few things to me that are essential are: Family, my education and sports. I include my friends with my family because after so many years together, they become part of your family. Without those three things, I would not even be close to the person, athlete or student that I am today, and for that I am eternally grateful.
I do happen to have several plans for the future already. I hope to play basketball in college, wherever it is that I decide to go. I also would like to either be involved in law enforcement or education. I really enjoy being around children and would want to be involved with an elementary school. I hope to continue writing as well, mainly because of the fact that it is a way for me to be creative without being judged by what I say. So I hope that it stays that way.

My name is Maria Valencia. I am a junior at DHS. My favorite color is yellow! I love to dance and play soccer. I consider myself a very nice person but my looks are deceiving. I usually look mean or angry but 99% of the time I am not! I love my friends and family. My puppy Lila has brought my home tons of happiness. The things I find most important in any relationships are trust and communication. I love being there for anyone who needs me and I pride myself in being a good listener. I was born in Colombia and I love the country as well as its culture. I think the best thing about having lived in two different countries is the experiences they bring you. I feel traveling gives you a personal understanding of the world that can't simply be taught. In my future I hope to travel and help others. I'm still not certain what my plans exactly are but to start off I will go to college and hope to find the right career for me. I write because I enjoy it- I feel that there is something special about going back to look at past works, whether personal or school assignments, which can show you how much you’ve grown both personally and academically.

My name is Abigail Hunnewell and I am seventeen years old. I love to play tennis and swim competitively. I am very opinionated but I like to listen to other people’s ideas. My closest friends are Valerie, Nicole, Audrey, Kayla, and Emma. My mom is Faith Thompson and my dad is John Hunnewell. My mom works at a law firm called Lexus Nexus and my dad is an IT manager at Chanel. I have an eleven year old sister named laurel and she just started middle school this year. I have not written much before this class unless for English class, but I joined creative writing because I would like to develop and explore my ability to write creatively.
ReplyDeleteMy family and friends are very important to me. I also take good care of my car because, though it doesn’t look like much, my freedom is very important to me. School is important to me only because I know it can take me further than Dunellen, and even further than New Jersey. I hope to attend either University of Maryland or University of Delaware. I want to major in either biology or social work. After I receive my bachelors I hope to work towards my masters in Genetic Counseling. I want to help family’s plan to have healthy children and individuals learn about and plan genetic conditions they may have or eventually develop.

Hello, I’m Charlie Sawyer and I’m 17 years old. I’m a senior at Dunellen High School and this is my first year doing the newspaper. I like to think that I’m a fairly down-to-earth person, but who am I to judge myself, right? At least I try my best. My favorite activities are running, singing, playing music, reading, and of course, writing. Things that are important to me are my friendships, and my ability and ambition to learn. I have two brothers: one twin which most of you probably know too, and an older brother who is in college.
ReplyDeleteRight now, my plan for the future is to be a journalist. Writing has always been something I’ve enjoyed, and being a journalist is a career path sure to put that to good use, “because there’s nothing more important to a democracy than a well-informed electorate.” ~Will McAvoy, The Newsroom (one of my favorite TV shows. You should all go watch it. Seriously.). So naturally, that is why I write; I love it more than most things, and I want to put it to good use.

My name is Samantha Ruiz, I am 16 years old. I love to do anything that’s outdoors, such as walking around or going to stores. I am the type of person that can be out going, and easy to talk to. I don’t really let things out unless you ask me a question; I like to keep most things to myself unless I really need to let it out. Once you hurt me I would be your friend again but I wouldn’t trust you with anything. I am the type of person that will be there for you if you needed someone to talk to. I am very close to my family, I have an amazing relationship with my parents and I wouldn’t trade that for the world. Me and my brothers get closer the older we get. I enjoy being around them and talking things out with them. I know that they will understand and really know where I’m coming from.
ReplyDeleteThe only main thing that is important to me is my family and my education. When I get out of high school I want to go to college and move out. I want to start my own life. I don’t want to depend on my mom to always be there even though I know she will be but I want to learn how to be independent. I want to be married and have kids by the age of 29. I want two kid’s one boy and the other girl, or have two boys. The reason why I write is because it gets my mind off of things and it’s an easier way of letting things out when no one else can understand how you feel. It helps me not take my anger out on other people. So that way it makes my attitude better.
My name is Mauricio Gomez; I am currently 18 years old. I love to be adventurous and just have fun; so when it comes to favorite activities I would say it would be hanging out with friends, playing sports with anyone and working out. My personality is simple; if I don’t know you at all or barely know you I will be completely shy. I’m not normally the one to make a first move. But if I know you very well I am a very loud person. I would tell you anything and you would be treated like family. My closest friend that I have is Joel. We started hanging out when he moved to Dunellen in the 7th grade. My family consists of two brothers and my mom. I am the oldest so I help my mom whenever I can. Things that are important to me are that a person is straight forward with everything; playing games leads to nothing. I also think that treating someone how you would like to be treated is also very important. My plans for the future is to join the marines and become a computer technician, help my mom whenever she needs me and look out for my family and friends. I normally don’t like writing ; but when I do it is to express the way I am feeling and to just write some thoughts down to later come back and look at what I was going through at the time or if I still have the same situation going on.

My name is Morgan Sanders. I’m seventeen years old. I love to read and write. Those two are probably my two favorite things, ever. I enjoy the ability to go somewhere without actually leaving home. To me, books are a way to escape to another world and I find it amazing how people can create that with different arrangements of the same 26 letters. I think that I have a good sense of humor, but I recognize when a situation calls for a serious attitude. I am quite mature, but not all the time. I have a tendency to zone out and it’s never anything personal. I’m not really sure how to describe my personality, mostly because I never spend too much time thinking about it. I consider myself a nice person, but only because I don’t see any reason not to be. People close to me, such as friends and family, have all called me weird at one point or another. I don’t take it as an insult, so I’ll just go with that; I’m kind of an odd person. My friends and family mean the world to me. I have two friends whom I’ve stayed very close with, closer than anyone else, for a very long time. One of them, I’ve been friends with for ten years, and her name is Isabeau. It sounds like a while but in such a small school, I don’t think it is. My friends are very important to me as is my family and future. When I say future, I mean my education and work and anything my present actions will have an effect on. I plan to go to college at Rutgers University and get a major in English and minor in a related subject. Hopefully, during/after college I’ll have an internship at a publishing company, where I will later obtain a career. From there, I hope to become a publisher myself. I write because it’s fun and I really enjoy it. As I said in the previous paragraph, “I find it amazing how people can create that with different arrangements of the same 26 letters,” and I really want to try and be a part of that.

Kate has lived in the same little brick house in Dunellen her entire life. She has two older brothers and a cat. She likes to read, write, draw, and hang out with friends, but there’s nothing she loves more than going home after school and taking a long nap. She spends most of the winter hibernating in her room and wishing summer would come back so she could lay on the beach because she hates the cold and the snow. Her diet is made up mostly of cheerios and quick chek subs. Her favorite color is yellow, but she really hates orange. Kate has a weird obsession with the number five. She’s secretly afraid of escalators and can’t really explain why. She loves music and when she’s home alone she likes to blast her music and sing along (badly) to Taylor Swift.

Ryan P. Tunison
ReplyDeleteRyan is the name, formally Ryan P. Tunison for all the written work I put my name to, the middle initial standing for Patrick. At the time which I write this I am sixteen years of age, partaking in the very activity I love. Having little interests in sports, and not to mention the lacking skill to perform them successfully, I have always paid the utmost attention to my work and the work of others ranging from novels to poetry. I also fairly enjoy reading some comic books that I take interest in, mostly admiring the artwork and the completely out-of-this-world tale they tell. That brings me to another activity that goes hand in hand with my writing, that being art. I mainly use art as a method of taking my characters, as well as characters I admire, out of the mass of descriptive words they are introduced in and create a portrait of them on paper. Sketching by hand is my preferred method of doing this because it gives me the most control, as do the use of words. As for my personality I face everything I do with a jovial attitude.
My family supports me in what I do, and I support them for the things they wish to accomplish. They are important to me just as well as my art and writing. Considering plans for my future I do intend to receive an education in order to become an English teacher. I also, as a main hobby that could possibly turn into my career of focus, will continue writing and publish that which I find good enough. I write simply because I like to and that is why I write in my free time. I tend to write stories that reflect my own life, but also toss aspects of my imagination into it to make things more interesting.

Hi, my name is Kelly and I recently turned sixteen in June.(Yay!) I would like to say i'm a fairly outgoing and happy person ,or at least I try my best to be. Being positive is a key part of my personality, because what good comes from being negative? Nothing. If you asked my friends what I’m like they would say I’m weird,but I like to call it being uniquely different. I don’t really have one activity that I absolutely love, but more of a bunch of activities that I like. Some of them include:going to the beach,reading,finding new music to listen to, watching vines, and hanging out with friends. My friends and family have made a huge impact on my life. They're the ones that I lean on and look to for support,for that I am grateful. The most important thing for me is my writing and obviously school. Writing allows me to express myself without judgement. I can make all my crazy ideas and stories come to life through paper & pen. Although my future is still unclear, I would like to travel to as many places as possible,meeting new people and finding new adventures. Hopefully one day I can even become a published author.

My name is Nathaniel Cardona, but I like to be called Tony I am a senior at Dunellen High school and I am seventeen years old. Some of my favorite activities is going to the gym and playing basketball with my friends. I like having a good time, laughing and telling jokes. I can be very competitive when it comes to certain things. I take exercising and staying shape very seriously, it is my passion and something I will never take lightly. Harold Vallejo whom I have known since my kindergarten days in John P. Faber school is my best friend. I am the second oldest in my family, I have one younger brother an older sister and two younger sisters. I also have two birds and two dogs.Family and friends are very important to me and have been a very essential part of my life, both have been there and supported me through the thick and thin parts of my life. Once I graduate from Dunellen High school I plan to go to college and look into the field of fitness, hopefully to one day become a trainer or physical therapist somewhere along those lines. I like writing because it helps me express my thoughts in a variety type of ways. I also think that writing helps me exercise my writing and expand on my thoughts, helping to become a better writer.

Jaime has been around the sun 17 times, and has just started her senior year here at DHS. She has an older brother by the name of Jesse, and a mix-breed of a beagle and Labrador- Leagle- who goes by the name of Chubbs and Puppys (Jackson.) On a good day, shes hard to miss in her lifted Jeep XJ, where she's more than likely to be blasting some music that goes unheard by most. Some would say that she has a ditsy personality, and with her blonder than blonde hair, it’s pretty easy to believe. When it comes down to it, however, she shows to be a pretty outgoing person, who's love for fun and excitement shines through. Jaime is very much involved with her family and friends who inspire her to be the greatest she can be. Ones passion for the art of tattoos could not even begin to exceed Jaime's. She someday hopes of becoming a very skilled tattoo artist and owning her own shop. She also cannot wait until she turns 18 so she can begin 'tatting herself up' as most of her role models tend to be themselves. Aside from her artistic side, Jaime has a passion for athleticism; succeeding on both the soccer and softball pitches.
ReplyDeleteSome write because they are told to, others write when they are bored. Jaime, on the other hand, writes because she sees it as an escape from the real world; a place she can spill out all that is on her mind- a place where judgement does not exist.

My name is Mac, and my full name is irrelevant. Who refers to people as there full first and last name anyway? I’m seventeen still but I’m practically eighteen. Some of my favorite activities are working at Subway, and watching old science fiction movies. My only real friend is my cat, and he’s the s***. But even he’s a jerk sometimes, so I guess I’m really unbearable. The best word I can think of to describe my personality is Stank. I’m just a big old stank cloud, metaphorically. I hope I don’t actually stink. I don’t have many things that are important to me, if I were to lose any one of my possessions I wouldn’t be too upset, maybe just a little annoyed. I have no idea what I’m going to do0 with my future and its scary. I don’t plan on putting myself through the disappointment of being rejected from all the schools I apply too, I’ve been rejected from enough in my life, I don’t know how much more I can take. I write because, I don’t know, I like it I guess. I think I’m funny. And if you’re wondering about the choppy sentences it’s because I’m just writing the first stuff that comes to mind, and my thought, much like my sentences, are short and choppy.

Day ‘o Birth: 11/20/95
I’m Kirsten Wilson and I am a junior here at Dunellen High school. I turned sixteen on April 12th. My life is basically school and work. I work at Dunellen Bagel on Saturday’s and Sunday’s. I really enjoy working there and I love the people I work with. I love to watch the Giants; they are my favorite football team. I play softball and I love playing. I play pitcher and third base. I can pretty much play any position you tell me to play except for first base. I can’t play first base. I have a brother named Evan. He is an eighth grader and he is thirteen years old. I have a sister named Kali who just stared her first year of middle school. She is about to turn twelve. I live with those two, my mom, my cousin, and her mother. I know it’s a lot of people, but we are really happy where we live now.
ReplyDeleteI find a lot of things important to me such as family. I feel like you have to be really close to your family. Family comes before everything. I also feel like friends are important too. They are like family, just not by blood. They will always be there for you no matter what. In the future, I plan to go to Rutgers University, but I have no idea what I want to do. People describe me as a nice girl who loves to laugh and have fun. My mom said that children always love me and I love children.

Hello! I am Totiana Joye, I’m a 15 years young, and I’m a junior. I don’t exactly have a lot to say about myself. My personality is pretty simple I’m nice and caring. I will always try to make you smile (even when I don’t want to have a smile of my own). I can be funny though my sense of humor isn’t exactly enjoyed by everyone. I am most defiantly weird and I own that title with pride, you can even ask my friends and I guarantee you that is one of the first words they would use to describe me. Getting away from the good stuff I can be ‘mean’ sometimes. Truthfully I’m not a mean person I’m just extremely blunt and forget that some people are kind of sensitive and prefer you to sugar coat things. Some things that are important to me are my family, my friends, and my writing. People who are close me are the ones I will worry the most over. Literally for me to able to sleep a night I need to make sure everyone is okay. Speaking of my friends and family I have two sisters and a grouping of close friends. My sisters are 3 and 8. They can be the only thing is this world that can make me angry or happy in 2 seconds.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite things to do include writing, singing, dancing, drawing, and swimming. I’m not the most active of people, but I don’t exactly enjoy sitting around all day so usually I fill in my time with learning some new choreography, writing a story, or just decorating my room with new paintings. In the future I plan on leaving the states and enjoying an awesome life out in London. If I can’t get that far then I can just stick to moving out to Philadelphia. Once I get out of high school I plan to go to college out of state. My options right now are University of Chicago, Arcadia, York, and possibly Hofstra. Though those are my dream schools I’m still keeping my options open. I plan on going to school for writing and teaching. I want to be a fictional writer and a high school English teacher. And last but not least the things that are the most important to me in life are being true to myself and being happy. Not letting anyone take my shine is a focus for me and I will never lie about who I really am to please others because in my mind my happiness always comes first.

My name is Brianna Martin, I am 15 years old. I don’t really have a favorite activity. I do enjoy doing photography. I only started doing photography not even for a year yet and I have worked with many bands, I have done a wedding, baby shower, taken pictures of nature and at the beach, and promotional pictures for bands. I try to be the best of person I can be and I usually am always happy. My family is very important to me, they support me in everything I do especially my photography because they all think I have great potential. My family, life, and photography are all things that are important to me. My plans for the future are to go to school for photography and become a full time photographer.

3. Birthday: February 6
Im Harold Vallejo and im 17 years old and I have many goals that I must achieve. My favorite activity was my first love which is basketball. Everywhere where I go I'm known by my talents of basketball and my worth ethic being so addicted to basketball. my personality revolves around the way I play basketball. energetic, loud and cant seem to stop moving. my family is very supportive about everything I do, except when I injured my hand last week.
ReplyDeleteMy family, friend and basketball are the most important things to me in my life. even without one of them I wouldn't be the type of person and athlete I am today. I plan on going to collage and play play basketball or maybe go further if I have the chance. if not my life will resort around basketball someway. I write hoping to hope that ive improved since the last time I wrote from that day, and to express my thoughts.
My name is Christian J Hunter; I live a life of extraordinary proportions. I have experienced many powerful and life changing events. From my time in Nam, to my creation of Apple, I have discovered success in many avenues. I started my reign of dominance but creating the world’s first automobile. I named it, the model – T. With this creation, I quickly rose to be one of humanities most prized individuals. Upon completing this test, I was hungry for more. I applied my knowledge of vehicles towards creating the Mark I tank for Britain. They praised my achievement.
ReplyDeleteAfter the two world wars, in 1952, I was tasked with developing a vaccine for the killer, polio. Of course, it was no challenge for a man of my caliber. I was given a Noble Peace Prize in results. Later on, in 1969, I was called to defend my nation’s interests. I was deployed into Vietnam on January 17th, 1970. I spent four hard years in grueling and musky conditions, fighting for my rations as well as my life. After the completion of the war, I was brought back to America. A year later, I founded Apple. I was an innovator who managed to create the Mac. My product sold rapidly and I grew even more famous. After 102 years of life and success, I am proud to say that I have yet to complete my goal. I am still hungry for more.

ReplyDelete“Get up!” the officer yells, motioning with his gun for me to stand up.
There’s two options:Fight my way off of the bus or amuse him for the time being. I go with the second option since I’m still weak, plus I need some answers. I stand up and turn around, allowing him to put handcuffs on me. I can tell by his face that he’s showering himself with compliments for catching me.
“Don’t get too excited big guy, I’m just doing this to make you feel good”
The officer pushes me forward and says, “Shut up and move.”
I smirk and say, “So aren’t you going to say I have the right to remain silent or something?”
“No, your not human. “ As we step outside ,the light momentarily blinds me. We’ve stopped at a gas station probably 2 hours away from Chicago. I can see all the other passengers crowded together staring at me in fear. There’s three other cop cars, five FBI vehicles, and a van with no windows.
“Wow all this for me?!? I feel so special guys thanks.” I smile and the officer spins me around so that I'm facing someone else. He’s a head taller than me, wearing a black suit and dark sunglasses that. There’s something off about him, his whole energy just feels negative. He places his hand on my shoulder, sending chills down my arm.
“Thank you Officer Brown, you’ve been absolutely wonderful, but I’ll take it from here.”
Officer Brown stands straighter, puffing out his chest and then nods at the weird guy taking me away. I’m considering breaking free and trying to find answers at a different time, when he says something that stops my heart cold.
“So you're a Norija, yeah?” He chuckles at my bewilderment.
“Oh so you really don’t know who you are?Hahaha perhaps it’s story time,friend?” He smiles and pulls down his sunglasses revealing those two pitch black eyes.
OOO. Getting interesting...
DeleteMy name is Tatiana García (accent on the i) and am very glad I do not have a middle name. I am 17 years old and currently a Senior at Dunellen High School. I was born in Uruguay and moved to Jersey when I was six. I have two younger brothers, Andy and Ignacio, to whom I am, surprisingly, very close with. My Maltese goes by the nickname of ‘Puppy’ because I strongly dislike his given name— Baby. I find it very unmanly. He is my absolute everything and makes my days much happier. I do not play sports but I love watching soccer and attending games, whether it is professional or just my brother playing.
ReplyDeleteI very much enjoy reading and wish I had more time to do so. There is just something about being able to get lost in a book and sort of becoming a part of another world. I enjoy writing mainly because it is easier to explain my thoughts and develop ideas, as oppose to when I am speaking. It is something that can always be improved upon which motivates me to become a better writer. Although undecided on what exactly I want to do when I “grow up” in respect to a career, I want to travel the world, meet new people and places, and just simply find joy in whatever it is that I decide do. It is often hard to be genuinely content and that is something I really hope to achieve in life.
