A Teenage Girl's Uniquely Ordinary Life: The Journey

I struggle with procrastination and I have accepted that!

This blog has been a journey for me. In case you don't know this blog is an assignment for my Honors English class. I started 9th grade knowing that I was going to have to do a blog. I was terrified; I didn't want to do it. I had all the classic self conscious teenage thoughts. I was worried that everyone would judge me. Not only was I self conscious, but I was clueless as well. I didn't know what I wanted my blog to be about. I didn't know how to title a post let alone write one. I wanted to be funny while sharing my personality, but was still afraid of what other people thought. It was very nerve wracking. And every time a blog assignment was due I'd have to rush to complete it because, of course like any other assignment, I would procrastinate. At times I really hated it.

Luckily now I don't hate it as much. Don't get me wrong, I still procrastinate, but I think in ways I have grown. I'm not as worried about being funny. I feel that by just being myself is funny enough. Now I honestly could careless about what people think about me. I have learned to express myself through this blog. I was finally able to share my love of puns and pick up lines to people other than just my family and friends. In a way I have even improved with them. Like when writing this very post I was trying to edit a sentence so it didn't have as many "I"s and I said "This sentence has four "I"s, ahhh, that's more "I"s than on my face!" (HAHA GET IT?!? Yea, yea, not that funny, but I think it's pretty punny. (Sorry couldn't resist.)). Anyway, even though this blog has put some stress on me I still feel as though I have benefited. I pay more attention to details and edit more carefully. I have made improvements through this wild blogging journey.

After this whole blogging adventure I look at every experience as an opportunity to share with someone. I feel as though my description, grammar, and writing in general has improved. Not only this, but I have gained other things from my friend's blogs. Whether that is learning about a new show *cough cough* Grey' Anatomy *cough cough* or just reading about a new perspective on life. This blog has been a great experience and I am sad to see it end. But I know that I won't be able to keep it up to date with posts. As much as I have learned, I still haven't learned about not procrastinating. Until next time! ... oh wait, not really ... well, thank you and goodbye!

Le Francais est Stupide!

WARNING: This post is basically just an anger rant. Be prepared to read the fiery wrath of Morgan.

The extent of my French knowledge.

As you may or may not know I am currently taking French. To this you may have one of three different responses. 1. "Ohh that's so cool! French is a beautiful language." 2. "Geez why would you do that? No one speaks French except for the french." or 3. "I hear they have really amazing food. There bread and cheese are amazing."  All of these statement/questions are true. (especially the last one). And to be completely honest I don't know why I decided to take French back in 7th grade. No one really speaks French except for a few countries. And really, I completely regret it, but at this point it is too late to turn back. I am in French III, so there is really no point in starting over with a different language. But even though this is my third year I still suck at French! I mean I'm pretty good with the grammar, but speaking and listening is a totally different topic. My accent is the WORST! Even though sometimes I do hate the class this doesn't mean I don't try.

This leads us to what forced me to write this post: my teacher. Just to keep this teacher free from hate we are going to refer to them as Mr/Ms. Stupide. Because I know all of my adoring fans would just blast them with hate after this. *cough cough* No one. Anyway, for some unknown reason Mr/Ms. Stupide seems to hate me with a burning passion. I know I'm not always the best student, but this doesn't give them the right to treat me unfairly. I talk just as much as the other kids in my class. I do just as much work as the other kids in my class; I may do even more work sometimes. I pay attention just as much as everyone else,  but he/she seems to pick me out of the crowd. This is not fair! So uncool Mr/Ms. Stupide. And I know what you are all thinking "Oh Morgan. You're being so silly.  You are making this all up in your head! Mr/Ms. Stupide doesn't hate you." All I have to say to that is "Ferme ta bouche!" You can ask any of my friends in that class. He/she hates me and they're not secretive about it. How might I know this you ask, well here are some examples. Once I wrote Mr/Ms. Stupide an email regarding my friend and I's project he/she never responded, but when my friend emailed him/her they responded in less than thirty minutes. Also, he/she has told me to stop talking when my mouth has not opened once, several times. Along with this he/she called on me in class to answer something. I will answer to question to the best of my ability and he/she will yell at me for not doing it. Shall I go on?

Overall, I have done my best in that I class. There was even a solid month where I was on top of everything. I was doing homework that no one else did and even answered questions that no one else knew. I try and sometimes I don't understand what is going on. Mr/Ms. Stupide takes this as me not caring or not trying; I take this as a comprehension error. But it has now gotten to the point in this class that I almost stormed out of the class. Luckily this is my last year with Mr/Ms. Stupide. Thank you for reading my anger rant about French. Au Revoir! Until next time!
