Laser Tag

Amidst all the boredom of summer, there are some days where I actually can do something fun! LASER TAG!!!!!!! As you might have guessed, I really like it. It's kind of like paintball, with an arena and obstacles and stuff, but it doesn't hurt! You run around so much (which is technically against the rules), but you don't even really notice! If you haven't tried it, you HAVE to!

Driving

Well, I got my permit yesterday! It's kind of exciting to finally be driving, although to tell the truth I'm not nearly as excited as people are telling me I should be. Anyway, I got to drive around a church parking lot for a little while yesterday and I'm going to be learning the ways of the stick shift today! Hope you're all doing well!

The Parting of Ways

Isn't it ironic that every ray of sunshine has a shadow to counter it? This year has been my favorite year in school. I learned how to focus better in school so I'd do well, I made way more friends, and had relatively good classes and teachers (with a few exceptions). This has also been my least favorite school year. A lot of my friends (including my best friend) are going to go to Layton HS next year, while I go to Davis. Also, I've now got an overloaded 10th grade year to look forward to next year! Still, I wouldn't do 9th grade over again, as it was as close to a perfect year as I'll ever get. And anyway, if all goes as planned, I'll stay in contact with my friends and we'll get together frequently over the next few years.

Because it was my last year in Jr. High, my parents bought me a yearbook this year! At the signing, I was kind of shocked at how many people I knew! I spent forever getting all my friends and favorite teachers to sign my yearbook. Thank you everyone for signing! You're all amazing people! Keep reading my blogs!

Letter From Mr. T

This is my letter from Mr. T written by myself. The assignment was to write a letter from Mr. T's perspective and give yourself an analysis on how you did in the course. I personally think that this letter is not all that far off from the truth and I'm sure Mr. T agrees as well!

Dear Moe,
Bravo! There is nothing that I like more in a student, especially when in honors, than having a student who will stick it through to the very end. In your case, what makes sticking it through even more incredible, is you posted everything on time for both your blog and your forum. You also did every writing contest and essay on time, too! This is not something that I can say about every student, which makes the praise that much more special. The only problem that I have to admonish you on is that while you did everything on time, occasionally it wasn't your VERY best work. I would imagine that this would be a result of procrastination and encourage you to change such behavior as you move on to a less forgiving high school. Overall, however, I believe that you deserve an "A" for the class for on time, relatively creative blogs and forum posts. I could tell that as the year passed, your posts become a lot more organized and the errors in them lessened. Once again, Bravo!

Sincerely,
Mr. T
