Yellow Star
1. Getting accepted to be in Crowder College Upward Bound- This is an awesome opportunity because not very many people get accepted and it helps out a lot because not only does it look good on a college application but it gets you prepared for next year and you meet a lot of new people.
2. Getting my best time in a track meet for a 800 meter dash- Even though it wasn't the best, I knocked of 10 seconds and got 6th place.
3. Getting my best time in a mile for volleyball- I got a 6:21 and usually I get low 7's or high 8's.

5. Getting accepted into Vo-tech- The health occupations class could help me with my GPA and my future career plans.

8. When my 13 year old cousin told me she wanted to grow up like me- That was probably the best thing I have ever been told.
9. When my mom told me she was proud of me- I showed her my grades and told her I was accepted into dual credit and vo-tech.
10. Getting my belly button and my nose pierced without passing out- Needles are one of my biggest fears but now piercings are getting to be not a big deal.

Synetics
1. Which is easier to forgive? A street or sidewalk.: A sidewalk because streets are more dangerous. All that usually happens on sidewalks are you run into people, say sorry, and move on.
2. Which is more fearful? New or old: New because you never know what will happen. You can forget the old.
3. Which is more difficult? A dream or nightmare: A dream because you have to work for it. People will try to ruin it and bring you down.
4. Which is braver? An hour or a year: A year because it's more long term. A lot more happens in a year than in an hour.
5. Which is like a legend? A mirror or glass: A mirror because legends look in mirrors all time and maybe not even realize it. Glass shatters too easy and legends don't shatter.
6. Which is more suspenseful? Rain or snow: Snow because ice may come with it. Rain is relaxing.
7. Which has less charm? A signature or an autograph: A signature because autographs are more for famous people. Who wouldn't want an autograph?
8. Which is more useful? A friend or enemy: A friend because they can help you through things and get you places. Enemies bring down your confidence and could ruin your motivation.
9. Which is happiest? Music or art: Music because it makes dance. The lyrics could be just what you needed to hear to make you smile.
10. Which is like a valentine? The truth or a lie: The truth because you could find out the person you like, likes you, too. Lies hurt and valentines are suppose to be sweet.

Valuable Lessons
1. Trusting the wrong people. I've told a few people some personal things and they went behind my back and told other people and a lot of drama was started.
2. Be you. You are not perfect and neither is anybody else. Be okay with your extra moles, shorter legs, different eyes, bigger belly; every difference.
3. Always dream big. My dream is to be accepted into MSA as a dancer then move to Florida and be a marine biologist with a huge house on the beach.
4. Be a friend to everyone. I've been the advice giver to a few people with very low self esteem and I was there when nobody else was. You never know what people may need someone.
5. Enjoy the little moments. Each day minute you spend with someone could be your last... Make it count.
6. Be the bigger person. People only put you down because they're insecure about themselves. Learn to just walk away and ignore it.
7. If you start something, finish it. Don't quit and never give up.
8. Don't let what other people say or do determine who you are. You know yourself and your abilities, nobody can determine your life.
9. Karma sucks! If you're going to do the wrong thing, be prepared for when it comes back and bites you in the butt.
10. Follow the Lord! He is the truth, the life, and the way. He will be there when the world turns its back on you. "For God so loved the world, that He gave his only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 <3
