Bullying (CRR)

                      In class, we was all watching a movie about Bullying. In this movie it shows examples of different types of kids and their experiences with bullying. This movie really touched me because the examples they were showing was very disturbing and hurtful. I could never imagine myself going through an experience like this. I don't judge the actions some of the kids had due to bullying. Some couldn't take more than others. Its either you commit suicide or stand up for yourself. The suicidal reactions is what really hurt me the most because bullying has gotten to an extent that kids are really taking their lives because of this. I don't know how it feels to be under that type of pressure to just take your life. I just hoped that they could just express their feelings to their families and not let it all build it so that it can get to that point of taking your life. I personally blame the school board and the teachers because if you observe what the kids are doing to other kids you should do something about it and take it serious just due to the fact that you don't know how far a child can take their feelings towards this happening to them. I feel like bullying in general should just stop, these poor kids that have no fault in anything are being pressured for taking their life FOR NO ABSOLUTE REASON. Just because of another child. I personally feel like the Police should get involved in this and talk to these immature kids that are pressuring innocent ones into a stage that they don't need to be in mentally and physically. Also, half of these kids are under the age of 13, they don't have a strong mentality to go through this type of conflict. Having families suffering just because of a CHILD. If  the Police was to get involved in this and explain in details of the consequences that can happen due to bullying, I believe this would've stopped a long time ago. People aren't taking this serious, and this why kids are thinking or even committing suicide so frequently. Watching this movie really opened my eyes and it made me think that my problems are nothing compared to what these young minded kids are thinking. Suffering and getting treated bad everyday, seven times a week, for eight hours a day is alot of pressure and negative feelings you have to build on.

Learning how to ride my bike (FC)

         When I learned how to ride a bike I was between the ages of seven or eight. While I was learning how to ride a bike, I found it very difficult for myself especially because I never rode a bike with out the training wheels on them. So maintaining my balance was the most difficult part. Some people that I know or a few of my friends took them all about two weeks to learn with hard practice, I learned within two days of hard work. I would usually practice with my mom or dad. We would go to the park or to a free open space with lots of grass just in case if I fell I wouldn't get hurt as badly. The first day of training was horrible I kept on falling, as a young girl I was very negative towards the obstacles that I could achieve. Meaning that while I was training, I felt like giving up and never  trying to learn how to ride a bike again, but my parents are very supportive towards everything and anything I do. So with there help, I gained my confidence back and worked even harder. Within hours of practice I already had the hang of riding bike, but had a few things to fix. The next day, I went to the park again and when I first got on the bike that day I fell automatically. Once again I lost my faith and confidence so I wanted to give up, my mom said "Try one more time" . So when finally I gave it a second try and I was riding the bike with great balance and I didn't fall. I was so reliefed and excited , I was in denial I couldn't believe that I knew how to ride a bike without my training wheels. At the time, at such a young age this meant a lot to me. If it wasn't for my mothers support I would've never gained back my confidence to learn how to ride a bike. In the future, I will do the same with my children, I will help them learn and support them through everything and anything. Just like how my parents did with me.

Memories as a young girl (FC)

My memories as a young girl, some were great and some we're horrible. The great times has to be when I was in kindergarten I had a lot of friends to play different games with. I felt comfortable around everyone as the school in general. I loved my teacher and the way she used to explains this to the students to have a better understanding of the lesson. Till this day, I still have communication with her, and she gives me good advice on how to achieve my goals and how to do well in high school, as well in college.
