My thoughts ( free choice )

Every single day I wake up on a mission , a mission to do better , feel better , and improve on certain things such as my behavior , attitude and the way I approach certain ideas or opinions. The way I have started to do this was by not replying back to everything or just ignoring. I have been in many conflicts and most if the time the only reason I'm in them because I'm always saving someone where I end up getting hurt or end up really "loosing" what I was fighting to win for. Now I am more certain about the situations I tend to fall into and I take process of choosing the right decision. I believe if I put myself first and think of the consequences then I will feel more proud and more determined about my goal , eventually not making me regret the decision I made. These are the thoughts that run through my head every morning and these are the thoughts I reflect on when I'm making a decision.

A Slave Grateful For Slavery ( CRR )

In class , we have been on this topic about Phillis Wheatley for a while now and I think I finally came up with an answer to why she loved that she was in slavery. As a slave you are forced to believe many things as Phillis Wheatley was forced to believe that Christianity is a way to freedom but it can also be that she really have faith in what she believes in and want to inform and offer these ideas to her people to show that they are not alone. A slave is the most lonely person you could imagine because everything that may seem grateful to them gets taken away like family , pride, their name and their culture. I believe Phillis Wheatley closest thing to not being lonely and to not being broken apart was Christianity. Phillis Whaetley made a connection between living life and how to pick choices and new ideas while living life even though she was a slave , she created solutions that she thinks would solve her problems. She created different options for herself and through her poetry she explained the way she felt about those options. Poetry was a way she expressed herself and it helped her express herself even more. In her theory I believe that she is only grateful about being a slave because that enabled her to come to America and find her faith because even in Africa slaves had slaves.

Better Than What I Thought It Would Me ! ( ID)

Receiving my schedule for the first time , I was excited until I see that I have been placed in the Pre-Calculus Class.Last year I was placed in Honors Math Class , which was a struggling class for me , so imagine how it is in Pre-Calculus Class. Before I was placed in and out of Pre- Calculus and Statistics I guess its because of my behavior issues that affects my learning but nope it was the debatable question of my dedication. I officially started Pre-calculus class on a Thursday where I went to go get a new schedule. The class is not as bad as it sounds. We learn about factoring and we reviewed many topics that deals with Algebra. I love Algebra its so fun and its something that keeps me company and I will never get tired of it. During class I learned how to write the slope intercept of a line , how to find and write in slope intercept form , writing the equation of the line. Through the do now's , homework assignments, and classwork I am able to concentrate more and feel dedicated. I started to work with my peers and sometimes in Pre-Calculus we are to go up and write on the smart board. We communicate in various ways , and think of multiple ways to answer a question. We never give up on a question , we always solve and when we solve incorrectly you go back and try again until you learn your mistake and you came up with the answer.

Guineaaa Conakry (PB)

If you haven't notice I am the first in my entire family to be born in the United States Of America ; however my love for my family descent is extremely huge. The place where most of my family are and most of my family were born and raised was back home in Guinea , Conakry located on the equator at the tip of West Africa. My first time ever visiting Africa was in the summer of 2010. Guinea is a natural place where everything is fresh and good , fresh fruits grown from trees , beautiful climate , friendly people , big houses , but more importantly freedom. Living in Africa for two months was so exciting and fun we went to movies , beach , rock climbing, clubs , parties , baby showers , weddings everything was just full of joy and happiness because it was filled with people that welcomed you . I really love my homeland Guinea which makes me so anxious to hurry and graduate so I can go back and show my diploma to my family. Guinea is a place to relax and have freedom because it is so nice to just not worry about anything . In guinea , the main focus is money , if you have money than you can live in Guinea until whenever and still live great . My precious homeland where I will soon return .
