In Class Writing:Classification and Division

In my fifth hour english class kids attitudes vary immensly. Although no one really gets along wth our teacher, Mrs.Jones, students in our class come to clas everyday with different attitudes. Not all of their attitudes are the same.  For instance, some kids attitudes are very proactive, and thrive very well in that enviornment. These kids are always on time to class and prepared. They come to class determined to get their work done and to not be a problem. The students that are proactive don't need to be constantly called on to answer a question, they volunteer themselves. There is no need to worry about students like these. Moreover, some have okay attitudes and participate but not as well as they could. They will pretty much just do their work but, also stir up problems in class. they don't really seem to be a problem at all. Sometimes they do slack but for the most part they just stand neutral. Unfortunatly for the class, their are some stufents who are just plain obnoxious and come to class with horrible attitudes. There mind set is not positive at all but completely negative. On top of that they are always late and just slack and don't do any work at all. These peole just wait for any opportunity to argue with the teacher or to interupt the lesson being taught. They will just sit in class and do no work, and distract others around them. Also, they seem to always find a way to pick a fight with the teacher even of it's for the littlest thing. In the end classrooms are suppossed to be made up of all these various attitudes in order to work well. My fifth hour teacher knows this for sure. Our class is just a mix of attitudes that actually represent how the student really is depending under which category they fall under.

There are many types of music out there. One type of music is country and it's more country and usually soft and not as loud and is harder to dance then others. Only beacause they aren't lways fast songs and are usually romatic. Another type of music is rock which is pretty loud and many think is obnoxious. It;s usually just instruments playing and the singer isn't always singing but actuallyy screaming.

Definition

For many a nerd can represented in a varity of ways. For example there is the school nerd and the geeky nerd and just a plain nerd. You may think they are all similar and might even be the same thing. In reality they all differ from each other. A school nerd is a studennt that is overly obssessed with school. It's common for students to worry about school work but not at such an extreme level. School nerds tend to always want to be paramount amoung all the other students. They are so consumed in getting the best grades ever that they rarely have any friends or are oblivious to everything around them. Morover a geeky nerd is mostly just a nerd that is a tech freak. Everything that has to do with technology facinates them. They seem to always be spending their time inventing new stuff or playing lame video games. They also don't have many friends outside of their miniature nerd group. Subsequently, a plain old nerd is not anything like a geeky and school nerd. This person just doesn't "fit in with the crowd." People don't really accept them as a they are. They are just people who wander alone all the time and don't seem to fit in any where they lack social interaction with everyone. They are also pick on and bullied occasionally. These type of people are the guinea pig of everyone. They are not at all intrested in doing good and school and definatly do n't like technology. in other words they are the social outcast. Although these three types of nerds have the word nerd in front of their classification they are all different from each other and are nerds in their own way.

Letter

October 1,2011
Dear Parents,

              I would love to thank you for all of  the incredible things you do for me and my siblings. You have done so much but I am especially forever grateful for the way you support me, also how hard you try to give me everything you weren't as fortunate to have, and for always looking out and taking care of me. There is not enough words in this entire world that could possibly describe how much you do. In truth you have always been at my side supporting me when I need you the most. That means a lot to me. Whenever I participate in athletic sports in school, your always there cheering me on. During a race I always know that if I look to the stands you two are always going to be there cheering me on with a big smile on your faces. Even during hard times I Know that you will always be there to give me the best advice possible and set me on the right path. You guide me through whenever I need to make a decisions. Adjacently, when it comes to my goals and dreams you are the first to give me a little nudge and encourage me to reach them and surpass the obstacles in between. Your encouragement gives me the hope I need to help me in the long stride there. It also helps me to remember that nothing is impossible in this world when you have special people by your side. Just I have you two. I am very fortunate to have such great, two human beings at my side. Subsequently, I appreciate everything that you've done to get where I am today. I promise all of your effort will pay off, and will not go to waste. In particular you are always willing to pay for any of the school activities I participate in at school. If it's for school or my education, you never hesitate to pay for it. Even if we are going through tough times. In addition you never fail to spoil me even if I don't deserve it. I know sometimes I really don't deserve half of the things I get from you, but I am still thankful that you because it show that you love me. In retrospect as you were children you never had all of the essential stuff in your day to day life. I value your effort in trying to grant us everything you didn't have. Your are always looking for what's paramount for us. Concurrently, I am grateful for taking care of me at all times. You are strict in the areas where you should be but you still give me the sufficient freedom I need. You always have my best interest in mind. As I said before thank you for looking over my shoulder and looking out for me. It means a lot to me that as a child you took on the responsibility to take care of me. When I was younger you were the solution to my every problem and you made things better. When I'm sick you two are the first I come to. You help me back to health and attend to my every need. Your are my own personal little angels that have looked over me since the day I first took in that first breath. Therefore, I can't possible give you enough thank you's that will represent how I feel toward you. I just know that I love you and owe my life to you. Thanks for everything you've ever done for me.



                                                                                         With Love from your Daughter,

How to set a Noisy Person Straight

            Nothing in the world can be more annoying then a noisy person! These people just love to get into everybody elses business but, never mind their own business. Usually after they find out whats going on in your life they go around and tell everyone stuff they don't really need to know about you. Well the only way to get rid of pesky, little people like this is to set them straight! To begin if you start to notice everyone around you seems to know a lot about you lately, the first thing to do is to find the source. Trust me you will find them. Next, don't confront them because violence and yelling will not solve anything. If you happen to be friends with this person then just try to distance yourself from them. Also try to not confide in them as much as before. It's better to just keep a distant relationship with that person. Sunsequently if they just don't stop and proceed with the same tactics then you should have a calm nice talk with them and try to come to an agreement where neither one of you are left in a akward position. In the end noisy people might not get the point of what you are trying to do. Many are just always oblivious to how they might be annoying or disturbing people with their nosiness. But hopefully you are able to get your point across and make them realize that what they are doing is bugging you.

Flirtation

When a boy catches your eye, flirting is the process you need to go through in order to get some where with that guy or if you just want to see him fall for you and then ditch him. Plus it's really fun to do and to see how they react. But if flirting is what you want to do make sure you do it the right way and not scare him off!The first thing is to start off with a conversation try to keep it intresting and not boring. During the conversation don't stare straight at him or else that will creep him out and make sure to smile but not too big. Next you should try and be around him but don't stalk him and don't have your friends follow him either. Thats a big no no. Next, try to hang out, out of school with a bunch of friends that way when your alone you'll have more time to yourselves. Ultimatly don't be too clingy and hopefully these steps will help to get him intrested!

Exemplification Paragraph

               My sister Ashley is a very unique person. To begin with she is very picky and specific with the type of people she hangs out with. She only talks and mingles with certain people at her school. She is always picking out who she can and can't spend time with. It always seems to be the same people. It's not because she is racist or judgemental, but she has always been like this ever since she was young. The reason behind this behavior is because she is shy and sometimes has a hard time making friends. That's why she picks out the people she believes are easier to talk to. However, once you get to know her and interact with her, you'll be able to notice she has a great personality. Most of the time she has a positive attitude towards everything. She always looks at the bright side or advantages of everything. One thing for sure is nothing bad about anyone ever comes out of her mouth. Ashley doesn't like to stir up unneccessary situations. But, like everyone she has her ups and downs. Moreover Ashley is also a very intelligent person. Through out her whole life she has maintained a 4.0 grade point average. She is really good at grasping new material quickly and processing it. When it comes to homework and school work she never procrastinates. Similarly you'll never see her slacking on anything that is school related. She is always on top of her game. All of these special traits help build up to how unique she is.
