I think everyone deserves a break or time to rest. No one can work everyday and expect to be ok. It can hurt your brain and tire you out. People say that we need to be pushed but sometimes that push can be too far. You may think I'm a kid and it's expected for me to say this but, no I'm human and I know these things and this is why I think the superintendent should keep the school year on the agricultural schedule. Just like me and everyone else we all get tired. There are so many things we all do outside of school that people don't know about so you can't expect us kids to not get tired. We need those winter and summer breaks because most kids have places to go for important reasons. I know that for a fact because very summer break I stay at mother or my brother's house so this is why we need those breaks. We also need breaks because like most families we have family reunions and my family mostly travels for 3-5 days so summer break is the best time to do it. This is one reason I think the superintendent should keep the school year on the agricultural schedule. If they decide to make school all year round that means that we have to take classes all year round. It is scientifically proven that math can hurt your brain so taking math all year round can cause problems mentally. Also the superintendent doesn't know what really goes on in the hallways of most schools. You know they say no bullying and they try to prevent it but no adult really can stop it. And if we have school all year round that's more days of the torture. This is another reason I believe the superintendent should keep the school year on the agricultural schedule. Bullying already happens everyday that no one knows about, so if school is all year round the pain and suffering will happen more often. I don't really this teachers and/or adults can stop bullying in school.
Children under age of 17 should have a 10:00pm curfew in every state, city, and country. Curfew is to keep the children safe. Children should not be allowed to stay out all night long. Children with curfews learn to make responsible designs. Curfews help to teach teenagers adult behavioral lessons. When teenagers ignore curfew they the have to suffer from the consequences by their guardian, or sometimes the law. Curfew teaches teenagers how to become independent adults. I think curfews are necessary. It's to keep the communities safe.I think and feel that a 10:00 curfew is needed and required. Not only just me I believe that parents do to. Because most Dangerous stuff happen a little after 10:00 and later. Curfew started in Middletown Pennsylvania in 1975. But because children want to be cool and sometimes out at the wrong time. So by them thinking they can stay out all night , they don't realize that it can cause them to lose there life.If I go out and survey at lease 100 parents. The percentage would probably be 95%. But if I survey 100 children that's under the age of 17, the percentage would probably be 10% that thinks curfew in needed at the of 17 and younger. Most kids just want to. Hang outside with their friends to have fun. But if your out after 10:00 you know your wrong.By me being 13 looking at it from my perspective, I think we should have a curfew of 10:00. Because I now and days people don't like to make good decisions. They don't care they just do before they think. And when they do that and have no feelings for it. sometime they don't realize what they doing until after the fact. If I was an adult I the curfew for my children would be when the street lights come on.
I'm in big trouble ,now I thought to myself that the governor should change driving age to 18. I say this because kids start learning to drive at age 15 and they need at least 2 years of  training. Next because they are adults and are older enough to follow the state rules and pay the price if they break them.Then most parents will not have to worry about their kids getting  cars for there sweet 16 birthday and they dont have to drive with an adult and will have there permits and not learners. 



First,kids should wait tell they are 18 because there parents can not tell them what to do with theres cars only if they live with them and is not paying for gas of th car note. Next kids drink and drive and don't know how to work the car fully . Then kids try to come home late because they have cars.




To start, kids will have to go to drivers ad. Then kids don't fully remember what they study in there books and have to wait athoner time to take the test. Next kids will drive over speed because they are exitced and will get tickets or a waring .



Then if your are sixteen you will  not be focus on your school work you will be worried about drving. Next you will try to show off and try to have a lot of people in your car and might break something.

"A Life Changing Birthday !"

Dear Future Me, 

       My thirteenth birthday was a life changing for me because I got over my fear of heights and I became a teenager ! I went to ''Deep Creek'' ski resort in Oakland,MD. Lots of people came along with me to celebrate.

       When I came home from school on February 1, 2012 , I changed my clothes. I seen that everybody was packed up except for me. So I asked what I should pack since I didn't know where we was going. My god-parents told me that my stuff was already packed up and ready to go. I asked where we was going but nobody would tell me. We all got in the cars and left. First, we stopped at the gas station to get some snacks for the road and gas. We headed for the highway. It was me, my god-parents, my grandmother, my two aunts, and my two little cousins. Some hours later we finally got there. We stopped at a restaurant named ''Santa Fe''. We got our food and waited for my aunts to get there because they were running behind a little bit. When they got there we ate and took some pictures and left. We drove around looking for resort but we couldn't find it. We pulled over and asked somebody for the directions. When we got to our cabin we picked our rooms and unpacked our luggage from the cars. Once we got finished we went back out to go shopping. We got all of the things we were going to need for the weekend.
      We got back to the cabin and played pool and watched movies for the rest of the night. The next morning when I woke up, my grandmother was cooking a BIG breakfast for the family. One she got done we all ate and then got dressed so we can go out and do activities. We went snow tubing and we got on a roller-coaster that goes up in the mountains. When I got on the roller-coaster I seen a sign that said 365 feet in the air. After I seen that sing I wanted to get off but I couldn't. When we got finished with that we went home and changed to go out to eat. When we got done with that we went home and played more pool.
     The next day was finally here it was my birthday !! When I woke up I went to look out of the window and one of my wishes had came true, it snowed !! For my birthday we stayed in and cooked a BIG dinner. While the food was cooking that night some of us played in the snow and had fun. When the food was done we ate together at the dinner table. Once we finished dinner, they sung "Happy Birthday" to me, we cut the cake, and I opened my gifts. I got a new pair of slippers and pajamas, money, cards, and the trip. After that we roasted marshmallows at the fire pit outside and made s'mores. We continued to play outside in the woods in the snow until we got tired and went to sleep.
     The last day had come after a long weekend. I was sad that it was time to leave. It was so much fun and I'm glad we went to the ski resort because if we wouldn't have went then i probably wouldn't have got over my fear of heights. We all got ready to leave, we packed up and made sure the house was the way we came to it. We packed the cars with our bags and left the resort. I wish we had more time but I appreciate the time we had together as a family. This is a trip I will never forget !!

Dear, Future Me


      Something tragic has happened. This event changed my feelings towards life. It makes me sad to think about it. When I think about it, it makes just feel different. This event changed my life for one main reason.
       
        This tragedy affected my feelings towards my life because he was close to my age, and knowing that anything can happen at any age is very scary to me. What happened was my 16 year old cousin was killed. This affected me deeply because not only was he family but he was so young and close to my age and the person that killed him didn't even know who he was. A lot of people say he was at the wrong place at the wrong time but I question myself about that because how do you know when you're at the wrong place at the wrong time when time is everything. It sometimes frighten me to know things like that can happen and here's  why.

         Before any of this happened me and him were really close. We acted just the same, and his little brother and my older sister were just the same so we had more in common. However during a few weeks before he was killed I somehow started feeling awkward around him so we fell off. I really started to separate myself from him, when I would go over his I would avoid him, and when he would come over my house I would stay in my room. So now after he passed I really regret treating him like that, so that's why this type of stuff frightens me.

         Here's what happened that night. He was just coming back from prom shopping with his little brother, older sister, his niece, and his mother. When he got home his mom went to work, and he went outside with his friend. I really wish he didn't do that because when he went outside he was shot and killed. The news spread pretty quick and when I found out I knew my life had changed.

         Now I said how this changed my life because it showed me that life is really unexpecting but also this made made me a better person. It made except people for who they are because who knows what they go through. Also to not hold grudges against people to just forgive and forget. Most importantly love your family and friends while there're here. So this is how my life has been affected by this tragic event. 


                                                                         Sincerely,
                                                                              The old you 
       

My Most Important Decision

The most important decision I had to  make was when I had to choose witch cheer group to be in.. KLM Elite Or Xquisite Allstars.

I was with KLM. Elite But when It started coasting too much, my mom was considering me going to another team. At first I tried out for a couple of teams. those teams were twisters, Crimson Heat and Xquisite Allstars .

Twisters were really Good, But it was not for me. Heat was a good team also, but I dident think I belonged there. And I loved Xquisite. They made me feel at home. Most of the people were older than me, but I could really relate to them. KLM said that we can do fundraising so we can afford it. Sa that means that I have a choice.

I live KLM and everyone in it but is it time for a change? I have been there ever since I was 6 years old and I'm 13 now. Xquisite was really good but I'll miss KLM. I know I'll make good friends at Xquisite but I know I'll miss them

I choose Xquisite and as Much as I'll miss KLM, it was time for a change, and I'm very happy at Xquisite.

Jonaya Mack story

Dear future me.Wow!I had a dream about getting a singing contract. I am very excited  because it is going to be a possible dream one day if I kept singing good. Do I  have the voice to make it true? I was in my room sleep taking a nap and then I seen myself on stage.I just know that it will come to pass.         


      Singing is not a gift everybody have only certain people have this talent.For example,Jessica simspon can sing & Steve  Harvey  can not sing but he is a big icon and is more know then Jessica. Then if you can sing you should keep practicing  to get better and to be perfect. Next, I love to sing &i do my best but I know people who can sing better than me & are my age but they don't practice. Finally, athoner  example is  that China Anne Mcllian can sing and use her gift but Adele can but when she got into a new deeper relationship then she stop singing.


 I had 50,000 votes every week on American Idol. Then, I called my mom& told her I might win & she  said she knew it to. Next, I was crying because I remember people were doubting me & I reach my dream job. Finally, I was on the new & people was downloading my soundtracks on there phones &  were  looking at me on YouTube. Next,I got  a call from my manger that he wanted me to fly out to LA fast. Then I arrived in LA & people were screaming my name & I had gifts when I arrived at the airport.Later I found my manger & me and him talk about when my first concert will start.Finally 6 months pass & I was at my concert backstage.


I was at my concert & I got a call that my brother got shoot on the way home from a weeding& was losing a lot of blood. I run off stage & began to cry. I wanted to retire if my brother died but he made it and was in rehab for a while.
