journal entry

It's always something new going on in my life which is both good and bad, but I guess that's life overall. I recently mended an old friendship, well, I'm trying to mend an old friendship, which is very tricky because so much has changed, neither of us are really the same trying to go back to the old relationship we had but that' something we can work on . Things at home are always rough, people probably wont know because I don't speak too much on it or show it, but yea lol, things happen and all I'm trying to do is graduate and go to college. Also give my mom a break and just make her proud. And you know I gotta do this for my dad, not for him but because of him. I gotta rub it in his face that he never helped with my successes and didn't contribute to making me accomplish these goals. But I'm chattingggg lol goodnight blog post :)

lets talk about a class

so right now my favorite class is yours truly, Ms.Hegemans, and it's my favorite because we have a guest who comes in periodically and his name is WT and he helps us have a fun way of learning and interpreting Shakespeare which i really enjoy. I participate alot more when he's in the class and he makes boring old Shakespeare more entertaining. I'm more of a hands on learning person anyways and at first no one wanted WT to come to the class, but I'm glad he came and I know everyone else is too :)

SSR

welcome to the second semester of my last year of high school. :) it's about time! so i have good news to bring to the table, I passed all of my regents and I passed my 1st semester which includes all of my classes. I am proud of myself as a person and I have seen the growth and maturity because of the decisions I am beginning to make for myself in order to see a better tomorrow. My last post was about how I wasn't understanding why certain things were happening and how I wasn't too fond of how senior year was going, but things happen for a reason and life works in mysterious ways and I'm grateful and happy with where everything is standing and I can see where things are heading. :)

life and what I have learned ..

Here we are in January and I can only complain. Complain about how my perception on everything I imagined senior year would be, wasn't it, just makes me so aggravated. I'm upset at the fact that I don't know why I'm given certain situations, not only for school, but life in general. Everything isn't what's appeared to be. Which is okay, but then again WHY? When will I somehow magically get a break and be able to collect myself as a human and be able to come with a refreshed state of mind ready to attack all of life's situations... I won't and that's what I learned, but I also learned to accept that even thought I am not okay with it, hopefully that can change soon..

FREE WRITE !

What to write, what to write.... well what's on my mind? I've been pretty chill lately actually. Nothing's been going on except school and cheer leading. I find it to be really fun even though sometimes we look bad out there and practice isn't always fun, I make the best out of it. School is going pretty good STILL which I'm very proud of myself with because I have tendencies to slack off once I see I did a good job first marking period. but I was working on it and I'm passing all of my classes STILL :) . I'm pretty satisfied with everything but I shouldn't speak too soon because we all know how that goes. Guess I just have to see what's next to come.

I've Changed ..

As humans, we grow. Positively, negatively and overall we just develop in ways that are mental and physical. Yes, I, Yasmin Mercedez Lopez, has CHANGED. Some may say for the better and some may say for worse, but what do I say? I say I'm living. I don't like how everyone portrays change as a bad thing, because EVERYONE changed whether it was from a long time ago or recently, people change and even though no one will tell you that they feel it's in a bad way, everyone will have their own opinions. So why dwell on what anyone else has to say about yourself if you are finally comfortable in the skin you are in. The reason why people are so uptight about change is because they are afraid. Afraid of trying new things and liking it, afraid that a new lifestyle would actually be okay and that it can teach you new things; but people are afraid to let go and move on and start something new. It's a problem, I feel that we humans as a whole have, not necessarily basing it on change EXACTLY , but overall we just don't know how to adapt with situations where we are WILLINGLY taking control of our future's. But, I can honestly sit her and say that yes I have changed, but I'm perfectly fine with who I became, whether it had been positive or negative, I am finally comfortable with who I am. 

In other classes, there isn't much that I can say about what we are learning and how interested I am in it, except for one class. Global and World History have never been my favorite nor strongest subjects, but this year the seniors are taking Government and I won't lie but it's interesting. Ms. Tomlin goes over the amendments and how the Government uses them in cases against the people and how they go about it, whether they won or lost we have to know the ins and outs. I feel like this Government class helps us as people and citizens know how to approach certain similar situations if we were ever to get involved in, and what amendments help protect our rights in those cases, which is actually very helpful in all honesty. I'm a good person though :D lol
