 I remember when I was like 6-7 I could do all types of flips and now I just can’t seem to do it . I started on a trampoline and from there I was all over the place flipping . I would literally just randomly flip all the time , at school , Walmart , and even at home . When my family and I moved to Georgia I kind of just lost the desire to flip and do cartwheels . I tried maybe a year ago and broke my pinky , so I doubt that if I tried today it wouldn’t go too well for me . Maybe it was because I was so tiny and I didn’t weigh anything that I could do all those types of flips but regardless ? I hope that the ability to flip comes back to me one day because lord knows it was fun to do .

 There’s a lot of things I can’t deny , like my race and stuff like that but something I seriously can’t deny is racism in america . It’s so many places I could start at from police brutality to workplace discrimination . Not very much to say but as a UNITED nation we have to do better as a whole . Being able to hate someone because of the color of their skin or racial background has to be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard . Racism blatantly shows how bitter some people are it it’s really kind of sickening . POC shouldn’t have to be mindful of their surroundings at all times because of the fear of something being done to them due to their color . 

One time I definitely knew I was in trouble was when I broke my moms 1000$ vase . Me and my brother were throwing a ball around in the front room and I dove to catch it and ran into the vase . It was so crazy because I knew as soon as it happened that she was gonna kill me . I legit thought about running away and never coming back , my whole life flashed before my eyes . It was like I was watching it happen like an out of body experience . My mom eventually forgave me after a couple months but I still wished that had never happened .

 One question i wish i would have asked is how challenging junior was going to be , this year kicked my a-word . This year was so stressful from working while in school , sleep schedule being all over the place , all the way to corona . Mr.rease had a really interesting course this year and I learned a lot even aside from the actual course , like being punctual and doing things the right way and in a timely manner . Thankful for this years experience it put me through a lot of adversity that I feel like I need for the future , now going in to the final year of Highschool I feel as if I’m prepared for anything .

 This is our last and final blog post for this year and its been a long semester , the best advice i can give to any incoming students is to do everything on time and take every assignment serious and complete all work in a timely manner .

 light day today , mr.rease explained the project for the final for those who weren’t in class monday .
