Today we did notes on evidence. We use evidence to prove a claim. Your evidence must be reliable. The ac got fixed. I enjoyed being in a cool classroom.
So, there was this one time I had to speak in front of my whole class for a project, and honestly, I was freaking out. My heart was pounding, and I felt like I might pass out just thinking about it. I was scared that I’d forget everything or stumble over my words. But I just focused on breathing and remembering that I was prepared, which helped calm me down. Once I started talking, I realized it wasn’t as bad as I thought, and I got into a rhythm. My advice? Just breathe, focus on the message, and don’t worry about being perfect! Today in class we did public speaking notes.
A feeling that took me by surprise was when I felt really excited learning something new. I didn’t expect it to be so interesting, but as I figured things out, it was like solving a puzzle, and that was kind of thrilling. I thought I’d just be memorizing facts, but I ended up really into it, wanting to know more and see how things fit together. It was a cool surprise that learning could actually feel exciting and fun, not just something I had to do. Today in class we learned about a new poet. We also started reading a new poem.
There was a time in school when I felt judged unfairly, and it still sticks with me. In sophomore year, I tried out for the school soccer team, nervous but excited. I practiced hard, showing up early and giving it my best, but when the team roster was posted, I didn’t make it. What hurt most was the way some of the kids who did make it spoke about me, saying things like, “He’s just trying to get attention” or “He’s not good enough.” It made me feel like I didn’t belong, and that I wasn’t serious about the sport, even though I was. It took time, but I realized I couldn’t let their judgment define me. That experience taught me that people often judge without knowing the full story, so I try to be more understanding and open-minded with others. Today in class we started a new book called "Lesson before Death" . It seems pretty interesting
