I'm Ready

I have had some very inspirational words spoken to me by none other than Mrs. Day. At first as her, my mother and myself were speaking, I felt ashamed that I wasn't coming to class and doing what I should have. I felt as if Mrs. Day did not want me there when she suggested to my mother I drop her class. The truth is, the only reason i stayed at Sheffield was because I was looking forward to AP. My mother and I had planned on me attending central, but of course I changed my mind. Now as I attend class, I see myself slacking and not fulfilling my true potential. As Mrs. Day posted in her blog, The truth hurts for a little while but a lie hurts forever. I now see that it is mid-November and I have an F in her class. I'm writing this, reaching out for help. I believe there may still be time. Please have faith in me everyone!

Is Romney A Sore Loser?

For everyone in America who is not a millionaire, it’s a good thing Mitt Romney lost the election. During a conference call on Wednesday, Romney told a group of his campaign donors that the reason he lost was because he just couldn’t compete with all the free “gifts” Obama gave to “the African American community, the Hispanic community and young people. Romney has just implied that 1. Obama has nothing to offer the caucasion comunnity 2. Obama has not made promises for the better of our country, but has given freebies to win our people and 3. certain things we as a whole need, especially our high school graduates, such as college loans, are not important. Romney’s remarks had an especially bitter tone when it came to amnesty for the children of “illegals,” the “so-called Dream Act,” and health care for blacks and Hispanics. I for one am glad that I now have an opportunity to get the education I need to become something in life. Without college loans, how many of our graduates would actually go to college?
