Week 31/32 Hudson Honors

I have reached my final blog. It is in my pleasure that I get to announce the following for the 2017/2018 Hudson Honors!

Most Interesting Part: The most interesting part for Comp/Novels is watching movies with our books. I thoroughly enjoy watching movies with books because 1- we get out of class for a few days to relax and 2- you never really realize how 2 different stories (books and movies/episodes) connect.

Hardest Part: The hardest part of Comp/Novels to me was reading The Catcher in the Rye. I fell behind in the reading portion because a lot was assigned to yourself and I never understood what was happening when we discussed.

Thing I Learned or Improved Upon the Most: I think, as most people would say is grammar. I couldn't enough say how much I've improved in that. I remember I didn't even know what an adverb was my sophomore year. Although it was tedious and made me want to rip my hair out, I greatly appreciate the 3 years I had to learn and attempt to perfect my grammar overall.

Favorite Memory: My favorite memory would have to be just sitting in class and random interruptions with bursts of laughter from Hudson. I think if there's one thing I will miss from high school, it would definitely be this.

Best Thing About Hudson as a Teacher: How enthusiastic and positive she can be even during hard or emotional times. Never fails to try and pump up the class on a boring quiet Monday. How much she cares for each student individually and pushes each of us to do our best and turn in our work. Also when she hints us in tests because, lord knows second guessing ourselves is toxic.

Thing Hudson Could Improve for Future Classes: Hudson could try to lessen the work load. This year wasn't too bad, but reading wise, to be completely honest, I barely read because there were too many chapters at a time or I just wasn't interested in the book. Plus the tiny words discourage me to read 3 chapters at a time because it makes me sleepy and there is just too much to read. 

Any Final Comments for Hudson: I am so glad that you've been my English teacher for 3 years. You have helped me, taught me, encouraged me, pushed me, and never gave up, for all 3 years. You have definitely made a mark in my heart, and will be a teacher I talk about in the future as a positive influence on me. Thank you, a million times, for being such a wonderful teacher to me.

Week 30 Senior Will

If I had to leave a will for the Juniors, I would give them the rest of my "oomf" for senior year. It's more than what they have anyways. They all have senioritis and need to slow down and be respectful. Just like in art with oil paints. A little goes a long ways. So that's one of the things I'm willing to them. The second thing I'm willing to them is an ounce of my respect. I think that will benefit most of them for the so fact that most of them are disrespectful to a lot of teachers and students. The third thing I'm willing to will to them is a little bit of knowledge. I think that if I willed this to them, they wouldn't cheat as much off one person. Their grades would also be higher if they actually took the time to learn instead of cheat. The last thing I'm willing them is some common sense. I think if they even had the tiniest amount, it'll benefit this entire nation. I think some of the teachers kind of enjoy their presence, but I think if they have all of this, they'll enjoy their presence even more.

Week 29: Words from the wise

Dear Juniors: Class of 2019,
       Greetings. If any of you are actually reading this somehow, and I hope that you are, I wanted to give you some advice for senior year.
       #1- Have fun. While you do have one year, it does go by pretty fast. Enjoy it while you can. I am writing this on 4/20 (hahah blaze it, jk) which means I have exactly one month left. It seems like a while ago I was counting down 8 months, then 7 months etc. Make do with what you have while it lasts. Some of you will still be with each other after high school, going to the same school. Some of you however, will be leaving for good. Make friends, make memories, and have fun.
       #2- Do your work. While you do have one year left, DO YOUR WORK. Don't fall behind. If you're like me, you would have had senioritis already. When I was a junior, towards the end of my year, I was getting senioritis watching my boyfriend graduate. In all reality, most of you technically wont be done with school. Think about it, you still have college. That mentality mostly helped me get through this year. Help yourselves and your teachers, don't fall behind, and do your work.
       #3- Be on time. Ya'll have a senior trip at the end of your year. You need to make sure you don't get too many tardies and you don't miss too much school. This also follows doing your work and senioritis, just show up to school, cause you will miss something from high school. Make do with what you have and help yourselves.
       #4- College and scholarships. DO THEM. Apply apply apply. DO IT EARLY. Trust me, its so hard to try to get it done later. If you apply to college early, great. Even if you don't know what you want to do. Scholarship wise, DO THEM ALLLLLL. Get as much money as you can. You'll need it.
       #5- This will be tiny things to help you.
                                         - Music: For me, being emotional as I am, this helped me SO MUCH in general throughout high school as a whole.
                                         - Gum: This is great after lunch when ya'll have nasty breath. You wont get  weird looks and people wont mind talking to you cause you wont be gross.
                                         - SHOWER: At times, you will go through lazy phases, but if you wake up and take a shower each morning or the night before, you will feel a lot fresher and be more prepared. Even dress up nicely.
                                         - Treat yo'self: Once in a while, you really do need to treat yourself               throughout senior year. You're a hard worker. You have a job, some might have sports or the play or other activities. Go with a couple other tense friends and treat yourself a little.
                                         - DO NOT DROP OUT: I can not express that enough. I don't care how        tough things get, don't drop out. The long term is gonna cost more than the short term. Just finish your schooling. You have less than one year. Do your work and be done.
       Finally, this is your last year. Finish it well. Good luck! I'm here if ya'll need help.

Week 28 Weirdest Compliment

I receive many many weird compliments. I go to a high school full of weird people too. People at our school have complimented me on my elbows, my skin, and even my pudgy tummy. Some people are legit about it but I feel like most of the time its a joke. If a guy was trying to make fun of me but in a sarcastic comment way out in public, I would probably accept it and take it as a legit compliment or I would say a weird compliment back because of the people at my school. I think one of the best compliments I receive is when someone tells me I am doing an amazing job at the task I'm doing at that moment. I like my work being recognized because it makes me feel like I'm doing something right. It kind of gets interesting with mixed feelings when someone gives you a nice but funny compliment. "You look beautiful today. You're wenis is really poppin' today"

Week 27 Professional Shania?!?

I would love to be a Geropsychologist for a day.
   1. I would know if I want to do that job.
   2. I would know what I would have to perfect and or focus on more for that job too.

I think you would definitely need an education for this job. You would need strong communication skills and an optimistic view to aid your patients. If you're upset while you're with your patients, it could make them upset as well. I think you would need extensive knowledge on cognitive diseases and late life, considering that you are working with elders. You'll also have to be able to think of programs and what not for your patients based on their wants and needs. I think this job would be a little difficult to do, but I think I can handle it.

Week 26 Unlimited Time and What I Could Do?

I was just granted unlimited time.
I would love to learn many many instruments, such as the violin, piano, Chinese bamboo flutes, harp, guitar, ukulele, different types of drums, and so on.
I would love to master different types of mediums such as colored pencils, ink, pottery, charcoal, oil, etc.
I would love to get an education in medical and psychology.
I would love to travel the WHOLE world and see all the abandoned parts, landmarks and 7 wonders etc.
I would love to perfect my photography and editing.
I would love to experience thrilling things like skydiving, hiking mountains, bungee jumping, and cliff diving etc.
I would love to earn a lot of money and get a big house full of things that I love to do.

Week 25 The cure of senioristis

After countless hours of research, I am proud to say that I have found the cure for senioritis. Some symptoms of senioritis include:
  • Laziness
  • Skipping classes
  • Failing to study
  • Failing to write coherent papers
  • Disinterest in school activities
  • Being distracted easily off school work
  • Having a hard time staying awake
To treat this dreaded senioritis, you can do as follows:

  • Setting goals to G R A D U A T E
  • Treat yo'self
  • Practice walking in your cap and gown
  • Take selfies with your buds counting down the days
  • Talk your feelings out
  • Pet an animal
Finally, with that being said, we only have 64 days left total til we graduate.

Week 24 My favorite Toy

My favorite toy as a kid varied. When I was really young I liked to play Hot Wheels with my brother. Then I went to Barbies and Bratz dolls. I had furniture and many many dolls. I also cut their hair because I thought it would grow back. Then as I got a little older I became obsessed with Little Pet Shop. I bought a place for them, I have over like 40 little pets. I remember being excited when I had 6 dollars, cause I'd buy another one. I slowly faded away from toys when I was about 10. Then I would play outside and go to the park and hangout with friends.

Week 23 My Paradise

This is my "I wish this could be a thing"
My paradise would be filled with people I enjoy that stays young and healthy forever. A place thats peaceful and sunny. Beautiful and stunning sunsets each night. Nature undisturbed and appreciated by humans. A place where I'm married young and happy with the person of my dreams. Only music I like exist and you literally feel the music beats and everything by putting on certain headphones or creating a room to do so. Disease wouldn't exist. You could do anything you want and people would work with you kindly without making things such a big deal. There wouldn't be argument or stress. Life would be great.

This is my legit like with how the world is paradise

A big wooden cabin in the woods. Lots of windows (But I'd put covers for the windows cause even if we were completely away from society, I feel like it'd give a more cozier inside) I'd want it fairly protected inside and out. A peaceful deep green forest. A beautiful view out of very window. Dark and rounded cobble stone drive. Snow and rain peacefully falling now and then. Personally a place like this, I wouldn't want it sunny all the time. I'd love a pretty overcast day most days in this scenery. I'd love a really cool basement to play my music and video games and theater. I'd love a beautiful pool in the back with potted flowers spread all around.

Week 22 Love songs

I dont really associate songs of love with someone but more depressing songs to someone. For instance, the song called Stubborn Love by The Lumineers. ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGewQB3mDv4 ) I first heard this song when I was walking with my sorta crush. I had a boyfriend at the time but he treated me like absolute crap and emotionally destroyed my well being for good. So when I got in touch with this guy, he and I hung out for a good 2 months before he got back with his ex which cut me and him off again. His mom also could tell I liked him too. But anyways... He and I were walking to my house and he had those headphones that played music like a speaker. And this was the song playing. I was able to get a few lyrics out of the quiet beat and looked up the lyrics. I fell in love with the song and related that to me and him. So anytime I hear certain songs from The Lumineers or Of Mice and Men, I think about him. Everytime. It sucks because I really like their songs. So every now and then when I go through my phases of music, I listen to them and am constantly reminded of him.

Week 21 Rooting for a couple

Sora and Kairi from Kingdom Hearts. They live on Destiny Island with a Riku and a few others. Riku and Sora compete for Kairis attention. The three of them build a raft to explore other worlds and the night before they were about to leave, they were attacked by the Heartless. Sora finds Kairi in their secret place. A huge gust of wind sends Kairi flying to sora and right as he was about to catch her, she vanishes and her heart went into his body. Riku shows hostility to Sora over a few things and tries to keep him away from her. Ansem reveals that Sora has Kairi's heart (Which is why Sora would have flashbacks and visions of her throughout his journey to find Kairi) and Sora sacrafices himself and turns into a heartless shadow. Kairi is awakened and runs to him but he vanishes into light when she touched him. Kairi eventually brings Sora back from the darkness. Kairi shows concern for finding Riku and Sora said to stay put so she doesnt get hurt and since their hearts were one at one point, they will always be together. Kairi then gives her lucky charm to him. Later Sora was fighting Ansem and at the end he was too late getting to Kairi cause then the world was breaking apart. Sora promised to find Kairi when he found Riku and King Mickey. (Pretty much summed up KH1)

I think I really liked this couple because I used to 1- have a crush on Sora and 2- imagine me being Kairi when I was younger. It's obviously fiction because although it may feel like worlds falling apart and crazy adventures, its fake. They're story from the beginning is just beautiful. Im so excited for KH3.

Week 20 5 pictures to describe my family

I don't particularly like my family and I don't really have many close friends. I'll just talk about my small online friend group.


Image result for emojis
1. This is an accurate picture of what our conversations are like. As annoying some of those convos got, I wish I could go back to being 14 and thats all we did compared to busy us now.

Image result for midnight hours clipart
2. This is accurate just because we would spend hours upon hours each night talking to each other. It sucked when I was up til 2am and had to get up at 6:15am.

Image result for 3ds
3. This is how most of my online friends met. 3DSPlaza was my stuff man. Texasgirl was my username. Thats why most of my usernames today is that.

Image result for us map
4. This represents the distance we have between us. One lives in Georgia, another lives in Missouri and the other lives in California. The one in missouri has a crazy family about privacy so I cant meet him. I met the one that lives in Georgia and I predict I'll be meeting the one in California soon.

Image result for censor bar
5. I chose this one because we're a weird group of friends that have pretty dumb conversations lmao. We talked about everything every night and it was fantastic


Sadly, we dont talk anywhere near as much as we used to and it makes me super sad. But we all grow up and friends become distant. They're really good at predicting my boyfriends being terrible to me though. I really do love them to the end. They've always been there for me and I appreciate them so much.

Week 19: My second life...

If I had to come back as a second animal, I'd love to be a cat. I love cats. They're just so fluffy and soft and cute. I wouldn't mind being fed and pet upon. I'd just hope that I get put into a good family and not like some family that abuses me. I hope I'd get the best family. I'd also love to know what it's like to think in cat. What makes a cat randomly run or spaz out. I'd love to purr and curl up in awkward balls. I'd love to attack small things. I'd also love to be small. In this life, I'm just so tall. I think being smaller and to be able to fit in weird places would be fun as well. Like being under the couch or under a bed or in a small corner.

Week 18 My happiness..

Happiness to me is..

Cats- I love cats because they're so fluffy and their little faces and how weird they are. Period.

Daniel Avidan- As I've said 48975092758096493 times, I LOVE his laugh. If anyone wants to make a gift for me, get me a soundwave of him laughing on a t-shirt and I might actually cry. He's so funny and so beautiful. I just lose words for him.

Nature- I have a personal love for nature. This sort of falls with photography. I think honestly (besides Danny) nature is the most beautiful thing on this planet. It surrounds us. When people find the need to destroy nature, I get SO angry. If you destroy something, you need to pay for it. You wouldn't go to your parents house and break a valuable on purpose because you wanted to put something else in its place. I think if you destroy nature, you need to replenish it somewhere else. If you destroy a tree, replant 2. I think people should start loving nature more and start to appreciate it. Same way with killing animals for their parts. You wouldn't go out and kill your parents to receive their belongings. And if you do, you're beyond sick. Same way with endangered species. I just read an article last night that there is only one male northern white rhino left. It has 24 hour protection because people like to hunt them and sell their parts. After long, we wont have our beautiful nature.

Kingdom Hearts-  This is my all time favorite game. No other game has even gotten close to beating it ever in the like 8-10 years I've loved this game. And I've played A LOT of games. I continuously buy merch at stores. Like recently I bought a pocket watch, a pophead and a keychain. I have made so many art pieces and I'm currently making another. Another gift idea right here. Buy me anything kingdom hearts and I'll literally pee. Lets just hope I don't have that merch already.

Music- I also have a personal love for music. I know so many bands from so many genres. I think if I had to choose a genre of music I really like, it would be rock. And even in rock there are many sub-genres. The only genre I really just cant handle and I hate is country.

Photography- I love photography. I started in 7th grade with a cheap Ipod. (It wasn't apple either) Eventually I bought myself an IPod 5 and took many pictures. Then I got the IPod 6. Then my junior year, I got a camera. I just need more lenses. I love nature, I love cameras, I love angles. I love editing, everything.

Art- Art is something else for me. When my art teacher tells me "it looks fine, it'll be fine, believe in yourself", it can enrage me. I know somethings off. I'm a perfectionist in art. If it doesn't look right I sit there for days trying to figure it out or I'll throw it away. Like with my KH piece, the shading didn't look right and I was dumb and asked the art teacher for help and she RUINED everything I just did. So then I spent the last 2 days fixing it. The part I was working on was only like 1/10th of my painting too.

Week 17 My own reality tv show...

I got selected to have my own reality tv show. Well let me tell you, school is probably the only real interesting thing about my life lol. So I usually start my day waking up at 7am, clearly. I lay in my bed for 10-20 minutes before school and go through my phone. Then I get dressed quickly and if I have time I eat breakfast. Then I leave for school at 7:45-7:50. I get to school and I'm just an open, weird person so my day is pretty interesting. I do community service everyday at school during 6th hour. Then if I have work, I get out after 6th hour. If I don't I only have one more class to do anyways. If I have work, I go home, either shower real quick or just get dressed for work. I drive to work around 2 and work at 230. There I do activities and serve supper and clean and what not until 9. Then I go home and if Brody gets out when I do, sometimes I'll just go hangout with him til 10:30. If not I just go home and get there at 9:30 and more recently, I started writing everyday. I'll do my homework and I'll relax. Sometimes I'll clean if I'm really restless. Then I'm on my phone til 11pm-1am. It depends how tired I am the next day. If I don't have work then I go home after school at 3. If Brody doesn't have work, I'll usually hangout with him and it varies what we do. A lot of the time, we'll go out. But sometimes we just like to stay home. Then I'll hangout with him til 10:30. Then I do the same thing when I get home from work like I do when I don't have work. Then on the weekends, If I work, I get up at 5am , get ready for work and leave at 5:55ish. I start laundry where I get soiled laundry and it gets washed and dried and delivered. I usually work til 11am-12pm. Then sometimes I'll go to Brodys after work but other times I wont. If I go to his house, we just relax and I get ready for work AGAIN. And he gets ready for work. But If I go home, I just lay down and relax and get ready for work again. Then I do the same thing I do for work as I do at school. Get ready and leave and do activities again and go home and do whatever. Then I do the same thing on Sunday. And If I don't have to work that weekend, I just relax and lay in bed practically all day. Nothing real fun.

Overall, I don't think my show would go very well because I don't have time to change my schedule and I cant really change it because they're all things that I need to do.
