A final post (Free Topic)
So I dont want to get all sappy and start crying, but I really am going to miss this. I'm going to try to keep doing it, outside of it being a school assignment, but with my habits it probably wont last terribly long. I love all the topics that we have been given. Its given me a chance to share what was on my mind when I thought no one cared enough to ask. Things will be way different after high school. At least I hope. To many people have told me that college is just like being back in high school. Im not sure. My campus seems really cool and I know living with my mom will have its own excitment. Im at the public library right now trying my hardest to get these done and the stupid pop up told me I have three minutes, so save my work and get off. In words like that at least. So I better do as Im told. Thankx so much Mrs. Nocera for all that you have done for us students this year. It has been a blast. May you be rewarded highly for all your time and efforts.

So today I went and hung out with the Lace Face. We have been trying for a few weeks to hang out, but my dad doesnt like me hanging out on school nights, so today was the day. I went over to her house and just hung for a little bit when Rachel came over. We listened to music and laughed alot because they were rocking out to metal head music. HILARIOUS! So after that we went and got stoner burritos at Del Taco, Rachel has never had one let alone heard of one. They are so yummy. After that we went to the mall and went to Spencer's. There was a rubber chicken sitting on the side and I picked it up and made it squeek at Lacy, she jumped like ten feet it was so funny. It goes along with an inside joke that we have about rocking out with chickens in our pants. After the mall we went to the park and Lace and Rachel were trying to balance on this barrel thing, they got pretty far. All in all it was a fun day. I got to take lots of pictures and just be random with a couple of cool girls. Most fun I have had all week. Thankx girls. Oh, at the park this little boy kept following Lacy around trying to get her to stick up for him with these other boys it was soooo cute.
I wanna finally write my book. (Free Topic)
For many years I have wanted to publish a book. My uncle has gotten about three of his published so far, two of which were poetry books, one a short story about his grandmother. I'm not entirely sure what I want the book to be about but I do know that I want some of my life to be reflected in it. This being said I would most likely publish it under an alias. My life has been no easy road, I mean who's has these days, but I would like to create a story about my life; one that could possibly help some other person a hundred thousand miles away. I wonder every day when I will finally get down to writing it. I read constantly and the book I read give me inspiration, but with the way things are now, I dont know if I will get it done anytime soon. Oh well, I will just have to take it a day at a time. Let's see where that will take us.

Graduating class of '09 (Free topic)
So Im not validictorian or anything but I do have some stuff I would like to say to our Graduating class and to all the friends I have made and to all the amazing teachers I have had the pleassure of learning from....
We did it! We made it here; to these chairs, to this stage. Many people said we couldn't do it, that the generations just keep getting worse and worse, but dangit, we made it. As we leave this place, let us never forget the relationships we have made, our friendships with other students, our friendships with our amazing teachers, and our friendships with ourselves. We probably have all been told at one point or another, that life is too short, that we must grasp it and take hold of our destinies, our futures; well Class of '09, that time is now. It is our turn to go out and make somethings of ourselves, it is our turn to become the future doctors and teachers and politicians and anything else your heart beats for. Don't let the world tell you what you have to be, figure it out for yourself. These past four years have ment something. They werent just time wasted in a classroom, learning nonsense material, they werent just extra days spent with friends; they are seconds, minutes, hours, and days, spent to prepare us for the rest of our lives. I know these last four years have made me come to know myself, the real person I want to be, not just someone who molds herself to fit in with the crowd of 'cool' people, but I have become the girl, no the young woman, who knows that she wants in life and know exactly how she is gonna get it. I hope our graduating class does not allow itself to become another statistic, but rather break the mold that has been set, let us become a new begining, let us change our communities, so that our world may be changed as well. For all the friends I have made, I will not say good-bye, only see you later. To the friends that have seen every side of me and still decided to stick around, to the friends that have seen me fall, only to laugh as they pick me back up, to all the friends that have seen me cry, only to say 'Im here for you', to all the friends who never said 'I told you so', to all the friends who made me laugh so hard my stomach hurt and something flew out of my nose, to all these people, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have helped me learn so many lessons in life. You have helped me learn to love myself above all, and to be me no matter the consequences. You have helped me stay true to myself. You have taught me what unconditional love is, you have taught me never to light things on fire, never to drive drunk, and never to put a man before a friend. But above all, you have taught me what friendship is. To my teachers; to all of you who have seen me in my highest moments, and talked me through my worst. To all of you who have read my lenghthy essays with only mild irritation, to all of you who have helped me through these 4 years teaching me all that you know. To all of you who have spent hours after clocking out of work, only to go home and grade finals and other papers, and not be paid. To all of you who love your job more then your own social life. To all of you who have made these 4 years barable for the rest of us. And to all of you who have helped me realize that I am a beautiful and talented young lady, I thank you as well. You may never know how much you truly have blessed each and every one of our lives. You have made us the people we are today. Thank you for your time and energy and guidance. To all the parents, thank you for your support and comfort. Graduating Class of '09, this I say to you, congradulations! We did it! Now let us go out there and shine, for we are the class of '09.

I can't believe its finally here....(free topic)
Yup....it's finally May 1st that means only a month left of school. I cant believe its finally over. Im so excited to graduate and get on with my life; to actually live life. For so long I have been stuck where Im at, not being able to move, being suffocated for so long. I am finally free. I love it! I cant wait to move back to Palmdale, to finally do something for myself and not feel guilty for it what so ever. It's gonna be an excited and busy first year. Good thing is that I am spending the summer with my dad which means beach trips with all my friends. That is one thing I never want to lose or forget; all the relationships that I have made throughout these 4 crazy years. I want to hold on to them forever. I will never forget the memories. All of them; good and bad. Things have been crazy and stressful, but above all, everything that has happened in these four years has made me grow into my own person. I have learned so much. I just cant believe its finally over. I still havent cried about it but I know that once its graduation night and I recieve my diploma and watch all my friends get theirs, I know that I will break down and cry hard; you know why, not because Im losing friends, not because I wont ever talk to them again, but because I will know in that moment that all my sacrifices, all my hard work, all my sweat and tears, it will all be worth it. GRADUATION BABY HERE I COME!!!!
