Today in class we did a Newsela assignment on pros and cons of the Pledge of Allegiance. There was a fire drill and we lost some class time. The lesson today taught me about different reasons for standing for the pledge and reasons for not standing. Both sides have their reasons and it's important to remember that standing for the pledge is not mandatory in the U.S. I had a good time in class and learned something new.

My Holiday Break

      Over the break I spent a lot of time at home with my family. I didn't do much but I still enjoyed the time off.  In 2025 I want all A's and B's. This is because I want to improve my GPA. Another goal I want to achieve is to apply to colleges. I want a higher education after I graduate. I also want to get a job so that I can buy the things I want to buy. I want to start saving money but not for anything in particular, just to save. And lastly, I want to learn how to speak spanish fluently because my spanish currently is really hard to understand.

A time when I took a hiatus.

I had to constantly keep putting in effort to compete and was no longer enjoying playing. I couldn´t handle the competition so I took a hiatus. I came back to the sport a few months later with a new outlook on it. I no longer took it as a sport I was forced to play and be good at but instead just something I could do for fun or to get away. In class we copied some vocabulary words and did a worksheet on the new vocab.  I expanded my vocab today and learned new words that I can use on future writing assignments.

I believe near-death experiences are glimpses beyond our lives and what we can see. Some people have reported seeing a light which could also be an indicator of an after-life. Others have seen loved ones whcih could mean that after death you are reunited with loved ones. Whatever happens after death im sure near-death experiences mean something.
