I’ve learned that I make a lot of grammar mistakes and that
my English isn’t all that great. I need to branch out and talk to people more
because I felt limited with the words I use. I’ve been honest in most of my
post but at the same time there were some personal stuff that I should have
avoided. To be honest I never thought I would take this class seriously because
I didn’t like to express myself. But during the time I was in Creative Writing,
I’ve started being more open about myself and expressing myself during and
outside of school. I have the tendency to stop myself in the middle of a sentence
because I realize how dumb I sounded. I wish to improve on not being so
conservative about myself and have people feel uncomfortable around me. But
what I view as not uncomfortable, I seem to make it more uncomfortable for
people to talk with me. I feel that it’s best that I kept quiet and avoid
making a fool of myself but the more I think that way, the harder it is for me
to express myself. These assignments have helped me be more open minded about
the things I write because I didn’t feel limited to just writing a subject or
making sure that what I was writing was correct. So overall I felt more relaxed
and not pressured to write about something that required me to research and
double guess myself. This class had helped me discover what I find that is
really important to me and what I treasured. I’ve wrote all of my post in hopes
that when I’m in my late thirties or forties or how ever old I will be when I
decide to check on Blogger again and if it still exist and see what I was like
as a kid. The three words that I would use to describe myself are reckless,
weird and conservative. I have been reckless with the blogs I’ve written and
throughout the school year I slacked off thinking that I could put it off and
it will somehow be done somehow in some way. I’ve been both weird and
conservative in most of my blog posts because they tell a different story from
what I’m like in person. Overall, I gained a lot of important values such as
being honest and open about myself and that there are some people who are more
different than they seem outside of the blogs.

Gone But Never Forgotten
1. Stressing and loving College Biology in 1st Hour and College Algebra during 4th Hour.
2. Being thankful to Mr. Gardner for not allowing me to drop out of Speech 101 online and
finishing the class with a B and knowing that I won't have to take a speech class in College.
3. Excited to meet my sister Aleson's little baby boy in the weekend of my graduation on May 12 and also being able to see my other sister Cindy during the same weekend.
4. I forgot to mention the month when my sisters got married so here it is: Cindy got married in December with Allen Yang and Aleson got married to Zhong Yang in January.
5. I enjoyed all the bonding time I have with my sister Habison and how we talked about who we liked and disliked.
6. Going to college for Dental Hygiene and getting a bachelor degree as a Dental Hygienist and working in the dental industry until my retirement.
7. Enjoying Mrs. Fitchpatrick's classes in Child Development and Careers because they gave me a different view of life and how important things were while I was job shadowing for the jobs I wanted.
8. Kissing my mother more often this year on the cheek than I ever had as a child growing up because of my Child Development class for opening up my eyes on how hard and stressful childbirth and raising a baby was like in the real world.
9. Need to note that this year of 2013 the following teachers that I look up to and who I'm thankful to are now moving away from Pierce City because of better job opportunities: Mrs. Witt-Schulte who got married and who is now Mrs. Slagle, Mr. Pham, and Mr. French.
10. This year 2012-2013 I was elected President of Book Club which none of my other sister have ever gotten and a position I never expected and it took me a lot of nerve to get around my shyness to do my duties as President like presenting and holding meetings.
11. Not being able to go to Project Prom at 12 AM to 6 AM because I had no ride to get to the event because no one was home and my sister forgot about it but she made up for it by buying me an IPad.
12. I would like to further my education and become a Dentist depending on financial status.
13. I want to get my own house and have my parents live with me so that would mean I could not get married because of tradition. The tradition is that the wife does not have the choice to allow her parents to live with her and it was only right if the husband's family did.
14. My dwarf hamster, Sasuke, died in December of last year so in the future I want to get another dwarf hamster and name the little guy Sasuke #2 because I really loved that hamster.
15. In the future I want my kids to be able to enjoy their school life and not procrastinate like I did during my high school years.
16. My parents never physically hurt me or deliberately made me sad or mad it was more of the sound of disappointment coming from their voice that I try to be a better person so I want to be like my parents without having to resort to anything physically or mentally damaging to teach my kids a lesson about life.
17. I want my parents to see my kids before they move on to the next life because they're in their late 50's and early 60's that I am unsure if they would be able to make it to their 90's.
18. I want to thank all Mrs. Corbett, the Librarian, for all the things she have done for me.
19. I was Office Aid during my Senior year and Shiela Johnson the secretary of the high school office was one of the nicest people I've met.
20. I had my first Five Guys food at Springfield and it was decent, not all that great though.

Valuable Lesson
1. Treat others the way you want to be treated. I learn and
respect most people from this golden rule.
2. Being able to take care of myself by setting short-term
goals so I would not be stressed.
3. It is better to be honest rather than being a liar because
it was looked down upon in my family if a person doesn’t keep their words.
4. Don’t always depend on others but if life gets too hard I
will have to trouble some people to help me with my problems.
5. Don’t expect too much from other people because there a high
chance of disappointment and it’s better to keep your expectations at a lower
level.
6. Don’t ever slack off in any classes no matter how close the
end of the school year.
7. Don’t lie to people that trust me or believes in me because
it hurts to know that I have failed their expectations of me.
8. Don’t procrastinate in school work if I want good grades and
study for tests.
9. Avoid involving myself with friends who do drugs or smoke
because they usually make choices that I don’t usually approve of.
10. Trust people who are honest to you and knowing that they’re
treating you like you were someone important to them.
Never Say Goodbye
I don’t think I have had
any good-byes where it was hard to say good-bye forever. My grandmother died
when I was only two years old so I didn’t know who she was to feel that sad or
talk about her death. My grandfather died before I was born so I don’t know
what he was like. I guess most of the people that were close to me are still
alive and I’ve been to many funerals in which I don’t know how I was related to
them but my parents knew them. The only good-bye I could think of was the death
of the sister I never met. I’ve only heard of her from my parents and my
sister-in-laws about my sister that I never met.
My sister died while my mother gave birth to her and I didn’t know how to feel about it because I was born last. My sister was born around in the 1980’s and I was born in 1995 so I sometimes wonder if my sister had survived what was she like and how different would she be from my other sisters. There wasn’t much information on my sister but I think I might have loved her. I love all my sisters and brothers no matter how much we annoy each other.
I already have a lot of nieces and nephews who are all beautiful and handsome girls and boys. It’s hard to say good-bye to a sister that I never met because she was never born and had died by the time my mother gave birth to her. So there wasn’t any kind of grave or a sacred shrine for my dead sister. I can’t say I have personally told her good-bye but after hearing the story of my sister that same day at night I whispered the words “I’m sorry”. I don’t know why I said it but I just felt like it. I know it may sound stupid but she would have been a sister I loved and because she didn’t get the chance to experience a life of her own. I’ve heard people praying for the ones that have passed away to wish those people good luck but for me I did not pray. After that night I kept thinking to myself how lucky I was for being alive. I do enjoy my life and even with its ups and downs I still prefer the life I have now and I think my sister would have also enjoyed this life too.
