New Semester Reflection

   
   During the fall semester I learned many things. The most important being, how to manage time well, how to prepare for tests, and getting used to what my teachers expect of me. Switching to EHS was not a hard transition, but I definitely had to get used to my new schedule. I really enjoy the schedule here because you don't go to every single class everyday. This signifies that I had to adjust the way I manage my time, meaning I could procrastinate just a little on my homework... When taking tests at Episcopal, each class is very different. After the first quarter, I was able to get used to how each teacher makes his or her test. Math was a little harder for me to get used to because my old school had a little bit of a different curriculum. Continuing with the new teacher reflection, during the first semester I had to get used to each of my teachers' different styles of teaching. I can gladly say that after my restful break, I know exactly what is expected of me in death of my classes.

    My goals for the spring semester are to do my absolute best, keep up with all of my work, and finish strong. I would really like to keep up my work-ethic. This will help me to finish the year strong. A lot of people think freshman year doesn't really count during your high school career, but it does. Getting into a good college is a big priority of mine, so I have to finish this first year strongly. Keeping up with all of my work will also help me to finish out the year.

    I agree that a good goal to have is to do your best because this can help when it is time for exams, good job!

Flash Fiction

   Lilly was nervous for her first day of sixth grade. She had to leave all of her friends behind in Denver, and was worried about making new ones in Los Angeles. Hopefully everyone was nice to her.    Jim was so excited for his first day of sixth grade. He was in middle school now. His brother told Jim all about his awesome middle school experiences. Jim rushed outside just in time to catch the bus.    Lilly walked into her homeroom teacher's classroom five minutes early. She figured it would be good to introduce herself. Mrs. Cunningham was hidden behind at least 40 textbooks. They were labeled "Life Science." Lilly sighed, she hated life science.    Jim waltzed into Mrs. Cunningham's class a minute after the bell rang. His brother had the same sixth grade teacher. He knew she wasn't strict. Jim was laughing with his friends, when he noticed an unfamiliar face sitting next to the window. He walked toward the girl.    Lilly took out her notebook while Mrs. Cu

Describe a time when you were very scared

  During last year's flood, our power had gone out. My family didn't worry because we were used to the power being out. Earlier that day, I had gotten a text from a friend that lives in my neighborhood, saying that there were some men going around trying to rob empty houses. I didn't think anything of the text because something like that had never happened in our neighborhood before. I remember it being pretty dark outside, so it must have been around eight pm. I was sitting on the couch with my dog when I heard a bang on the door. Then I saw a shadow pop up in front of the door, along with more banging. My mom rushed my sister and I into her room, while my dad went to investigate.    My mom manually set off the alarm in an attempt to scare away the attempted burglar. I was supposed to call 911. It was my first time every having to call the police. My sister was freaking out, and I was shaking holding the dog. It took the police almost twenty minutes to get to our house, d

All About Me

   My name is Grace and this is my first year at Episcopal. My favorite color is pink, and my favorite animal is a flamingo. In my free time I like to draw or do projects. My favorite food is spaghetti, but my favorite meal is dessert. I have one younger sister who is in sixth grade. I also have a toy poodle named Lucy, and she is a drama queen. If you leave a pillow or a fuzzy blanket out, you better be sure she will be laying on it when you come back. She also loves to steal your chick-fil-a nuggets when you aren't looking, but she can be super sweet when she wants to be.    This summer we went to Canada. It was my first time going to Montreal. We went up in the mountains, and it was so beautiful. The weather was amazing; one day we woke up and it was 45 degrees! There was so little humidity, that it made me not want to go home. We went white water rafting, zip lining, and rock climbing, but my favorite was white water rafting. The town we were in was actually a popular ski reso
