Trust Me!

Being a teenage girl,  I am often boy crazy. I also spend a good amount of time watching television. As a result, I was exposed to an actor named Charles Michael Davis. He is a 29 year old actor and model from Dayton, Ohio. He is very attractive. I discovered him on a relatively new show, The Originals, a spin-off of The Vampire Diaries. On the show, he plays as one of the main characters that goes by the name of Marcel. However, I was not the only one to discover this gorgeous man when the premiere episode aired. Discussing the show with my close friend, Taylor, I learned that she also found him attractive. That was when I knew that I had to call 'dibs'. Although, when I did so, Taylor found the opportunity to do so, as well. We then went back and forth, explaining reasons why he would choose one of us. Again, being a teenage girl, this is what we do. As a result of  his never ending amount of exquisiteness and perfection, Taylor and I tend to have this discussion very frequently. Nevertheless, we all know that if we were to meet Charles Michael Davis, he would pick me. TRUST ME!

Aspiration Paragraph

My struggle and accomplishments previously mentioned have greatly influenced my aspirations. For example, I aspire to counteract my struggles and to continue along the path of my previous achievements. I also hope that by doing so, I will be ready for junior year as well as college. I know that I can complete these goals by staying self-motivated and confident, ending my habit of procrastination, and keeping my organizational methods.

Flying Colors...

I am always nervous for tests. Exams, tests, and quizzes give me anxiety, in general. Whether I am prepared or not does not affect my nerves. As for the OGT, I feel the least prepared for the science OGT. My reasoning has nothing to do with Mr. Jaworski because he has been an awesome teacher. I am nervous about the science OGT because there is so much content to remember and recall. The OGT could include subjects from elementary school, and subjects that I do not ever recall learning. I am also nervous about Social Studies for the same reason. Again, it has nothing to do with my teacher; there is just so much content that could be put into the test. However, I believe that my feelings that I am unprepared stem from my confidence. As a result, I am nervous about those two subjects. When it comes to the other subjects, I am nervous about the simple fact that they are tests that determine my future. Although, I am not afraid of the content. I have never struggled when it comes to language arts and I know that with the amount of time we have to complete the test, I can figure out a large majority of the math. In order to feel these same feelings about the previous tests I mentioned that I was the least prepared for I need to develop a stronger confidence in my academic abilities. Regardless of my high grades, my confidence varies. In order to change these feelings, I need to make sure that I get a lot of practice in the subjects whether it be from OGT workbooks, OGT websites, or just reading more material. I believe that it all boils down to relaxing and not allowing the stress to get in the way. In the end, I am an intelligent girl and I know that I will pass the tests with flying colors.
