LETTER TO MYSELF - LOUELLEN

-

 Dear 3rd grade me, 


I know what you're going through right now, the fake friends, the scary teacher. Right now it seems like the end of the world. Not understanding the homework, and not being able to read like everyone else is a struggle because of the lack of help in your circumstance. But do not fear because everything will get better in a few years. Once you get through Junior High, those people won't matter anymore. 

What they say won't affect you as much because you will learn to find your own self confidence within yourself. For your academic issue, you will eventually learn to take your abilities into your own hands. It's important for you to understand that the pressure is on you for now on. You are going to have to put in more effort than average to keep your head above water in school. Please stay away from all distractions. Don't try out for your Junior High cheer team or participate in volleyball or crosscountry. Yes you will enjoy it, but at what cost? Prioritising your mental health should be an immediate must.

Those people you thought were your friends, are not. Keep your circle small and close. It's better to sit at a table alone then to be with the many who you know don't like you. Just remember you are doing amazing for the position.

My Cat By: Jenna  You and I are bonded  Like the snow that falls    when it stops, we fall, too it was Like a never-ending call that said "I will be there for you" It might be off and on, sad or happy  It might fall on the wrong person But I will always be there  Like a bunch of white flowers  That gain colors  Eyes that sparkle like a frozen lake  That feeling like when you touch cotton      Soft, but sharp  Lonely, but lovely  Smells like ocean   Fresh and blue Cute and calm  Sweet and spiritual   She's Sour candy  the only one I want to touch  The one I want to spend my life with  And just my best friend

ADALYNN - BIO POEM

  BY: Adalynn Adalynn, Who is always lazy and lounging. Who is the sister of Morgan, Cedric, and the daughter of Kelly. Who loves dance, law, and justice. Who feels out of bounds, lost, and simply along for the ride. Who needs to be alone but together, peaceful but chaotic, simple but complex. Who gives simple advice, an honest opinion even if brutal, and a good laugh to others. Who fears feeling empty,things touching my throat, and words I cannot understand. Who would like to see the German cathedrals, Italians statues, and the forbidden city of China. Who shares food, kindness, and knowledge. Who is a human, a dancer, and a gymnast. Who is a resident of Olney, Illinois. Kate.

THIS I BELIEVE - NIKOLAI

I’m sure you’ve had at least one person give you a weird look, even though you don’t know who they are or who they are. They just judged you on appearance. They believe in a stereotype. Regardless of this, or how common it is, there is no such thing as a universally true stereotype. This is a simple belief, and even if people disagree, they cannot prove it wrong. It is a fact. You can say all people of [group] are [thing], but you’re wrong. If you’re right, it’s not a stereotype. And if it’s not a stereotype, it's not an issue. It is then not an opinion, which may be offensive, put simply. If I said “All adults are rude,” I’d be wrong. That’s a simple stereotype. Point out even a single outlier, and you’ve proven someone wrong in their stereotypical beliefs. One moment I can point out here that I’ve had to learn this was when I was playing an online game, and when I tried to talk to someone they said something rude. I don’t remember what they said, but I eventually got it out if ...
