Class Related

Lately in class we've been reading a book called Farenheit 451, and so far it hasn't been that good to me. Maybe it's because one of the reasons that they stated in that book, when they said people like books with profanity in them. Well not too much profanity but maybe some action or something you know. Something that'll keep you on the edge on your seat. Other than that the class has been going good. I like the activity we did when we annotated the book because it helps better understand the novel. Most of the time when teachers assign books for students to read the students are just reading it and doesn't know half of what's going on in it. Annotating the text as you read helps you comprehend better and you can also learn a few new words if you didn't already know them.

Passion 😏

Passion.. Hmm I don't really think I'm that passionate for any certain topic. Well atleast I can't think of anything I'm very passionate about right now besides being successful I'm life. My passion for success is very strong. No matter what I set my mind to I will always get it done. Which makes me believe I'm very passionate about success. I've had a lot of barriers to stop me from reaching goals in my life but I always seem to pull through and before I know it, I accomplish what I wanted to. I think it's best not to set goals because id look at it as limiting yourself. Setting a goal is like setting a finish line. In a race you need to get PASSED the finish line in order to win right? So why stop at the finish line and let someone else win. Why not go pass your "goal" and be above the bar. Another thing I may be passionate about is family and being connection. I always try to make everything straight between my family because I believe we're all that we got. No one else will be there for you like your family member will. I don't know that's just how I think, some people think otherwise. I believe having a passion for something had to come naturally. Although you can grow a passion for things, just as easy as your passion grew for it, it can disappear. To be really passionate about something doesn't come from just seeing something and saying you like it. It comes from not seeing something and still wanting it.

Introducing myself

Hi Ms. Hegeman this is Aubrey. My first name is a mixture of my mom's name and my dad's name. I really love to listen to music, no wonder how mad I am it always cures the pain.. Well atleast for the moment. I like to chill with my friends, I swear I can do it all day. I think I'm a people person because  I can make people laugh and brings different groups together and have fun with no problems. I'm not much of a party person I usually just like to relax and laugh with loved ones. I don't know why I have this bad habit of waiting until the last minute to complete assignments.. You could take this for example it's due at 11:59pm and I'm just now doing it at 11pm. Although I wait until the last minute, I'm actually a very hard working person I just cannot manage my time correctly. Hopefully I can get some help on that this year. I have 4 brothers and 2 sisters. I want to do something with my life to prove to my little brother that we can be something in this world. Today is actually his birthday, what a coincidence. The only problem is I'm not sure on how to show him how to live life the right way, when I don't even know what I want to do with mine, except try to become successful somehow. This is the year where I figure out what to do after high school with my life. I feel as if going to college would be too much pressure for me and it's not like I'm flopping out or anything, but none of my family has been to college so for me to go first would be a big step. I don't have anyone to help hold me up with advice from their past experience with college so I've been seriously considering the military after high school, plus they pay for you to go to school anyway so it's just like going to college, it's just that I'm a step ahead with a federal position.  Hopefully by the time October or November hits I've made up my mind about going to college or not because I feel as if it's stressing me out talking about it everyday with parents, teachers, admissions counselors, and pretty much everyone else. Sometimes I wish I had a different life because of some of the things I've been through but my mom always told me be careful what you wish for because somebody else is wishing to be like you. I've always hoped that was true but I doubt it. Most of the time if I'm not home most likely I'm at work slaving (which I hate) so I can have money in my pocket. Life isn't easy, and as bad as it may sound I'd rather be with God than to work hard all my life if it's not going to pay off.
