Before I started this whole blogging thing, my thoughts were "This is going to be easy.." But I was wrong. I never thought that writing about my life, my family, school, goals, and my thoughts about the books I've read, plans after high school, people that inspired me/my supporters would be so hard. But I've learned so much about myself and what I can do to succeed. Blogging, hmmm....it was more than just blogging. It was something for me to express myself. I never thought that I would become more confident in writing about myself, my family, and other things. At first I didn't know what I would write because the whole process of blogging was really new to me even though blogging is on myspace a lot. I had less confidence in myself because I wasn't sure of what I would write about. But as I got more and more deeper into reading and writing about things I've learned and just things in general.
After looking over the stories or posts I would say, I am so proud of myself because I've done so much work and it was worth it. I never thought that I had so much courage to put all my effort into this. I am thankful for what I've accomplished. I know now that there are many things that I can explore and hopefully when I find them I will look back into this and use it as a motivation. I finally found something that helped me to express and open my mind in many ways. Now that I am a senior, I finally realized that life is all about expressing who I am and making the right decisions. I know that life is short and I need to use my time wisely. After high school, honestly I don't know what I want to do. But hopefully going to a community college will help me find what my future has in store for me.
My family, friends, and teachers have had a huge impact on my life, and they have showed me many ways to become a very successful person. Writing essays/posts has improved my literature skills. With all the support my family, friends, and teachers have shown me I've learned that no matter how hard a problem is I know that I have such great supporters beside me. As time flies by and graduation is getting closer, I now realize that everything is going to be okay and I have nothing to worry about. It has been a wonderful and great experience and privilege to write about my future goals and everything that is important in my life. I thank God for everything because I know that without him nothing is possible. In the bible, John 3:16 it says "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish but have everlasting life."

CLUELESS
Being clueless always happened to me. I mean after three years of high school I thought I knew what I wanted to do after high school but no, I was wrong. Right now I am in the process of applying to colleges and still waiting to take my SAT's. And still clueless. But I'm hoping and praying that I find out soon what I want to do.
In this story clueless Amy Anderson starts off with saying that she had no clue what she wanted to do. She loved writing novels and culinary arts. Now choosing a college for her was hard but her teacher gave her advice to look up colleges that interested her with the two things she loved to do. Then a speaker came to her school and told them that there was a culinary camp that they could go to and for sure Amy went. After all of that she visited so many colleges and her parents were very supportive in everything. I guess after going through visiting colleges and experiencing all the different things at each one helped her in every way to figure out what's right for her.
"The campus tours, the culinary camp, and the Writer's Guild all influenced my thoughts about the future, and in the end, they helped me decide what to do with my life."
It explains everything of not being clueless.

REASSURING WORDS
"On the tour, we visited two to three schools every day, and every day I felt as though I had been smacked across the face. None of the schools I loved on paper, with their small class sizes and world renowned English programs, were places where I wanted to spend the next four years of my life."
Reading this part of the story made me think more and more about what I want to do for the next 3-6 years of my life. I remember as I was growing up I always wanted to be a pediatrician because I love working with kids. But now I don't know what I want. I still do love working with kids but I don't know if it's right for me. I applied to different community colleges instead of universities because I think that community colleges is a good start for me and Ill move on from there. Hopefully the colleges I applied to will accept me.
"No matter where you go, it's the right choice he said."
This quote made me feel so much better because I know now that where ever I go, it's the right choice and everything will turn out fine.

AUDITION
Now this made me laugh too:
"My three-year old daughter Carolyn picked an apple from the bowl on her Nana's table, took a bite, and murmured, "I feel strange." She fell to the floor, the apple rolling dramatically from her hand. My mom was horrified, and jumped up from her chair. I continued to drink my coffee. I had witnessed this a hundred of times. Carolyn was Snow White, and had reenacted the famous poisoned apple scene."
Reading about this story, I read more about how drama ran in Lauren Andreano's family but not always in a good way. After reading this story I learned that there are so many options I could choose from. And hopefully I choose one I love.
