 __ ** my freshmen year ** at shroder was like finding a needle in a heystack. I had alot of difficulties. I did however make some really amazing friends.

The environment in school was hard because there were a lot of kids in the 9th grade which made the classrooms full. The Teachers made it hard for me in class because they would say the same thing over and over. I guess they were trying to get into our heads! Then there is drama! Teens these days start way to much drama over stupid stuff like the girls fight over other girls talking about them beside their back, or over a boy. The boys would do the same thing. I mean come on now girls would you really mess up your friendship up over a stupid boy? and boys would you mess up your friendship over a girl? I wish the world was more peaceful and not full of hate. I would love to see when drama would come to a end but I don't think that would really ever happen but I can dream can I ?__ __I had problems in the 9th grade. Teachers moved to fast in class because once I get what we are doing they are moving on to something ease. When I'm in class I get easily distracted because once I see something that I like I focus on whatever it is. I talk way too much to and get in trouble because I get bored to easily. I know the teachers are trying to tell use to do our best and don't let nothing get in our way but hey I think every kid gets distracted once in there classes or even more. What can we say we are kids! Most of the time we don't .... well I don't feel like doing any work but somedays I will and its simple I geuss i really never knew the work would be easy!

Some of the friends I made in the 9th grade were amazing. My friends are very supportive because when I say I want to do something good they support me in every way. When I have a down day, let’s say..... My pet passed away, I was really hurt and started to cry they would help me by saying things like “You'll get another one!" They also make good decisions, unlike the friends I made in the beginning of the school year. They smoked and got drunk. They were horrible people to be with. My friends now don't talk behind my and other people's backs. They're more honest with me. They will say whatever is bothering them to my face. The best part is they make my life livable (if my day sucks, they will make it better). I have one person that I can really trust but shes in a lower grade but I can tell her everything that is bothering me and she will make me feel better!!! I hang with her whenever I can. In the beginning of the school year I was the type who was trying to fit in I did everything I could to be peoples friend but later i found out that I was doing the wrong stuff like I was getting in trubble and cuting but I wasn't the Haley I ust to be and well hey..... look at me now! __

__Outside of school and at home, I had some difficulties too. My foster mom Mrs. Hill helps me sometimes with my work but I don't like to ask people how to do my work but that means I'll get bad grades so sometimes I'll ask And with a job because im 16!. I skipped way to much school in my home town Trenton like 30 days I think,so that’s why I’m in foster care well thats not all why I'm in foster care but you all don't need to no that part! I listen to music to clam me down and work! I'm one of the kids that like to listen to music to concentrate. I want to get better grade because my dream is to get in to U.C and become a vet! I love working with animals! people say I would do a great job working with animals. Mrs.hill thinks my job is the best thing that happend to me but the best thing that happend to me was me living with the Hills they treat me right and like I living there !

life outside of school is ok I now go home and do my homework and I liston to music when I have it some times I get in trubble so most of the time I don't have it! when I do my mom tells me to turn it off because she thinks I can't work with it on but I can don't tell her that!!! but hey if I get the work done thats all that counts right ? well i think it does !!! My job has been awsome and not hard once I get home I still have time to do my homework and I can get to sleep at like 10! At first I thought that having a job would be hard if I had to go to school the next day but now I found out it's easy.

All I have to tell my slef every day is that today is a good day and that i'm thinkful that god woke me up to let me see another day! some days I say that I can't say that I say that every day then I would be lieing! but I am thinkful of every thing my techers, friends, and my family is doing for me. Without them I don't know what I would do! I would most likly go crazy. Everyone that I know or I live with is somthing to me like my teachers are like my parents for 7 hours! my friends are like um well my friends and my foster parents are like my mom and dad !! and they act like my mom and dad to!

I know my life is going to be hard in the years to come but hey I think I can make it ! just like everyone in my family says "lifes a game and it's not fair"and no that i realize it life is a game and it's not fair but I have alot to do before my school is over! get good grades and prove oto every one I'm not as stupid as they think I'm! prove to my self I can do it i have like 75% of me that beleaves that I have the power that I can do it but alittle of me has a part that don't beleave I can do it but I'm pushing myself to get to my goel witch is to be 100% sure I can do it ! woot!!

My 9th grade year was like finding a needle in a heystack. hard, fun, and plesant but mostly ok I've tried to do my best and most people are not happy about my grades but hey at least they all are not F's like they ust to be,So I want to get better at school as time goes by. __
