Learning Reflection
This year I have learned that I am actually not bad at writing poems. It is not something that I typically picture myself doing in the long run, but I think that I may be exceptional at writing. I never really enjoyed writing but when I have a prompt and I can get involved in it, I could write a good amount. For writing prompts on tests and essays, I can't get involved in them so my writing is not typically me best.
I have tried just free writing or maybe even writing my own stories and I feel that my work is not bad for someone my age. I don't like showing others my writing because I tend to be embarrassed of my writing. I don't want to go into the writing business, I think that I will only do it for my own enjoyment.

Free Post
This year has gone by so fast. It feels like just yesterday I was coming into high school for the first time and meeting my new teachers. I can not imagine how the seniors are feeling with graduation right around the corner and college not to far ahead. I know it's early but the recurring question in my head is, what do I want to work on for the rest of my life.
I'm only a freshman but I still can't help to think that I won't be able to figure out what I want to do. I know that I definitely don't want to do something that will bore me for the rest of my life. Figuring out what I want to do will also help me figure out what kind of college I want to attend. I've always enjoyed acting, but that's not a solid profession, and the odds of me making it in that industry are slim to none. Anyways, I still have three more school years to figure it out.

Analysis of Ice Ice Baby
The first time I heard Ice Ice Baby I was hooked instantly and I knew that I wanted to analyze this song. In this song there are many references to the underprivileged life. This song has many types of rhyme and poetry, but one that is the most prevalent throughout the song is End Rhyme. This song contains a story of how there is a party and the police have arrived on the scene and shots have fired.
I think that this song really speaks to me and I feel that this is the epitome of today's modern world. The reason that I chose this song is that Vanilla Ice is one of my favorite artists and I happen to love his music.

Mardi Gras Break
During this Mardi Gras break I went to Driver's Ed at Stop 'n' Go. I have to say that it was one of the most boring experiences of my life. The instructor, Ms. Kay, would not stop talking about herself and honestly I'd rather be learning how to drive than be learning about her personal life. I did meet some people that are now my friends, and I was accompanied by Bea and Jack.
The actual material was not that difficult and I learned it pretty quickly, but with Ms. Kay nonstop talking I decided to take it up myself and finish the workbook. Others never finished chapter six, and I think that gave me an edge when it came to exam time. Overall it was an interesting experience in that I made new friends and learned new things. Finally I ended up passing the exam with an 85%.
