Semester Goals Part 2

My semester goals so far are up to date with the exception of a few. So far my grades are all A's and I'm trying my best not to get behind with homework. I still haven't found a job but I have done community service now by helping out at elementary schools. I feel accomplished with the reading score I got on my KRA, and I'm hoping to improve more on vocabulary and reading skills in order to increase my ACT score.

My Favorite Author

My favorite author is probably Lemony Snicket and his Series of Unfortunate Events.

My favorite non-school book I've read is "Never Mind! A Twin Novel" by Avi and Rachel Vail!

My Favorite Smell

My favorite smell is the smell of popcorn and cologne. I also like the smell of swimming pools, I don't know why!

Hobbies

I spend alot of time watching TV and on the computer, so I can say they are pretty much my main hobbies. I like watching series, comedy shows, pretty much anything that is on. I spend alot of time on Facebook because Myspace is just boring now. In the summer, I like to go running and swimming. I can pretty much be outside all day! I have to watch at least 3 movies a week, especially on the weekends. I have many other hobbies but they are too much to list.

My Dream Vacation

My dream vacation needs to be a place where a beach is located nearby. I think that looking at the sunset next to the beach is something unforgetable. I have great desires of going to some type of HUGE amusement park and riding some HUGE rollercoaster that makes me feel an indescribable sensation in my stomach. Doesn't that sound awesome? More things on my list would be riding a dolphin, parchuting, surfing, or anything extreme! What better dream vacation than that? So now the question to the gifted kids is, What is your dream vacation? :)

Favorite Memory So Far

My favorite memory so far would be probably be when I was 8 years old on Halloween. One of my neighbor's halloween traditions would be dressing up and start chasing any kid that goes trick-or-treating to her house. Very curious I was to find out if it was actually true, my cousin and I decided to test her out! So we went to her house(also the last house we went to), knocked on the door. Her daughter opened the door but told us to wait a minute. We both thought at that moment it was all lies and rumors but suddenly the lady appeared on the door and put the candy in our buckets. Right at the moment the candy dropped in the bucket, we turned around and started running. The lady started running after us. We tried to run as fast as we could, as well as she did. She chased us around the whole block and my cousin was really scared he dropped his candy without realizing it. We ran into my house and locked the doors, but started laughing at the whole situation because we new it was a all a joke, yet we were somehow scared. My cousin said he didn't even care about the candy anymore, yet the next morning he was outside looking for it. That is a once in a lifetime experience in my opinion, which makes it my best memory so far.

What I look for in friends?

Friends...a friend is someone who you can tell your problems to, but yet you can listen to their problems. A friend doesn't care how embarrassing you are when you are in public. A friend is not a friend just because you're "cool" or because you're popular, because if you base your friendships on popularity, at the end, you will end up with nothing, and you can discover who are your REAL friends!
