This year I started off good but then I went down then I went up close to the end of the year so that I can graduate on stage. I was trying so hard this year so I can graduate and it happened. School was a good help to me this year my teacher tought me alot. I thank mt teachers for helping me this year and for pushing me to do my work.

No More Uniforms

wam14 — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 19:10:29 +0000

Students at SFMS should not be required to wear collared shirts. One good reason, collared shirts are not even considered as uniforms. Uniforms are when everyone wears the same clothing.At SFMS if we had uniforms it would be way to different. Here at SFMS most students don’t wera uniform because they hate this school law.

Some students dont show the nice clothes they have because SFMS has a uniform policy. The uniforms are not cool because they hide how a student is how he/she dresses. Some students like to express wat the wear and how they look. Some students like how they dress either nice or ugly but they don’t like uniforms. When some students don’t wear uniforms the get caught by the dean and theyhave to either go get one or go home for the day. Mostly some students take their uniform shirt off during school because they may have another one under and it mat be a nice one.

Some parents don’t like their son/daughter to go to school in uniform and some parents do like their son/daughter to come to school in uniform. Some parents don’t ike to buy their child uniforms because they mite cost to much money. Parents also don’t like when thier child gets in trouble because the child might not be wearing their uniform. Parents also do’t like comeing to school just because there child isn’t wearing there uniform. Some students at SFMS like to wear a shirt under there uniform. Some students are good at hidding thing and they come into the school without a uniform ant they hide it allday.

So like I was saying students hear at SFMS hate uniforms and they don’t want to wear them anymore. All students at SFMS want the uniform law off no one wants uniforms around anymore. Some teachers don’t even like the uniform policy because the students don’t wear uniforms some of th students have it off all the time. Some students come into school without there uniform on and they hide it allday. If a student gets caught they will also get detention in the cafeteria for nutrition and lunch. So as my conclusion there should be nomore uniforms here at SFMS because none of the students don’t wera it. Students don’t like the uniforms they hate the uniform policy. So yes pleaz take off the uniform policy at once stop makeing the students suffer.

Change Myself

wam14 — Tue, 19 May 2009 01:16:55 +0000

One thing I need to change about myself is how I have good grades in the 1st semester and I let them drop in the 2nd semester. If I see that my grades are sown I have to get them up so I can pass the class. Now that im in 8th grade I have to get my grades up so I can graduate on stage with my friends. I plan to get my grades up and to graduate on that stage and to make my family proud of me.

My Goal I plan To Have In The Next Five Years

wam14 — Wed, 06 May 2009 19:37:28 +0000

I plan to go to collage and play basketball for USC TROJANS. I want to go to collage because none of my other family members went and I want to be the 1st one to go to collage. I want to make my family proud of me and I want to be a successful person in life. My goal in collage is to play basketball and to get drafted into an NBA pro basketball team. If that doesn’t work out then I want to have a job that pays good money and that I can do not a hard job though. I want to be able to help my parents and my sisters get out of the bad neighborhood and I want them to live in a safe place were they can live in peace. If i make it to the NBA I would give my parents and sisters anything they want. So yeah those are my goals for five years from now and for the future.

My First Basketball Game

wam14 — Wed, 06 May 2009 19:17:37 +0000

My first basketball game was when I was 8 years old I played at San Fernando Park with some of my friends. Our team name was the Wolves, my jersey number was 51 I played shooting guard. We won our first game 35-32 it was a very close game. Our basketball team was mixed with both boys and girls. Our basketball team came in 2nd place, we could of made it in 1st place but we lost the championship game 45-32 that day was our worst game we ever played. We still won trophies but just not the 1st plays trophy. After that lost we all went to a party and celebrated o how good our season went. We did very good that season but we could of done better. So thats how my first basketball game was like.
