Thank you Lee!

Wow, the year has gone by so fast... I kinda don't want school to end but it has to end at some point,right? Soon I'll be a Junior and will be looked upon as "Senpai" Oh god. I'm such a weirdo that I believe that people would call me that, Ha! With only having a week left I feel pressured by my school work. To know that I did learn something and that what I was doing in class was worth it, that my grades do mean something. Some people will probably think differently but I want to graduate with good grades, because believe it or not middle school was my "rebellious" stage. I went to ISS (In School Suspension ?? ) and a few other things, mainly because I did not turn in my homework and because my grades, were of course were going down the drain. I got a wake up call and started working harder on my last year of middle school and left with good grades, but I wasn't able to get into my first choice of high school. I came to Lee knowing that it was not the best school I should attend and that many of the students did drugs or were in gangs. 

    I put aside all the negative things people kept saying about Lee and concentrated on my school work. I'm not someone popular but I made friends that I talk to while I pass the hallway. During my sophomore year I made more friends and told myself I was not going to be so timid and quiet, that I would make friends that we're or are complete opposites of me. I met Russel, Natalia, Jose, Diego, Jennifer, Yennifer, Juliette, and many other people. They are either positive, quiet, talkative, or just outgoing. I am grateful to Lee for allowing me to meet people who are different from me. Oh and I'm grateful for meeting Mary Manghaucing, She's a little small Asian girl who has become someone I care for and don't want people to harm her because to me she's like a delicate little sister, even though she is a year older than me, so thank you for always being kind to me and making me feel like an older sister!
