During the 6th six weeks
They could have gone better, a lot of bad things happened during these six weeks. Everything should be okay now, what's really bugging me is that I don't know if I'm going to get out early yet. And if I don't, the schedule is going to be really confusing. This six weeks I tried to do all of my work and tried to turn it in on time, the last time I checked I was passing all my classes, but I guess anything could happen I just hope I get to be a junior next year.
Personal CCOT Essay
I was born on June 12, 1997 and I don't know where and at what time. A year later, I got sucked into the Catholic religion and got baptized. Nothing really happened, only that I started to speak more but I usually only made sounds. I only spoke if I needed to. Then in the year 2000, my brother was born, I don't think I ever liked him because even today, I still bully him. A year later.\, we moved into the house we're living in right now. A year after that, I started school, which I hated. I remember telling my mom that if sent me to school that I was going to cut or kill myself. I know, I was crazy, I was four when I said that and I still said it, but stopped because it never worked. In, 2004I transferred to S.S. Conner Elementary School, a lot of people I know since first grade, go to Skyline. But yeah, new school, new teachers, and new friends. In second grade, I had Mr. Galvan and he was my 2nd favorite teacher. I got really close to him and called him grandpa. Fast forward, in 2007, I has Ms. Marroquin for 1st, 3rd, and 4th grade. She was epic and my favorite teacher. My aunt moved out in 2008, which I cried because we were really close. She has a good house now and two dogs that I love. I had my first pair of eyeglasses the year after that, and I never wore them because they made me look like I have big eyes. IN, 2011, I cracked my elbow because I was chasing my brother in the living room. He ran and I climbed on the edge of the sofa and slipped, falling backwards. So I extended my arm out so I wouldn't hit my head and that's when I heard it pop a couple of times.....it was painful.
A year after is where all the crap really begins, I started high school. It was a big school and didn't really get to talk to some of my friends anymore. Ever since I started school I hated it, I threatened my mom because of it, but I still have to go. Well this year, I'm taller than everyone in my family and the only girl who has made it this far in school If I keep going, I'll be first girl to graduate high school..ever. No pressure there. -_- But yeah I'll be first

Pros and Cons of Marriage Equality
Marriage:
It is one of the most important decisions taken by each person in your life. And there should be no differences for people who are the same sex, religions, and races. We are all human and a person should not treated differently because of their sexual preferences, because you take this decision with the same responsibility. Thinking and decisions taken when two people buy a house, when to buy a mascot, when to have children, or to adopt. There should be no limitations to any person. Especially when it ends in divorce and divide all this and nobody gets affected. Always remember that peace and respect the rights of others is peace. Everyone should be treated with EQUALITY.

1st Six Weeks
The first week of the six weeks is always the easiest but also pretty boring because of the class expectations, rules, and the syllabus. My classes were all okay except for one which was Spanish I and I don't know why I have it I can read, write, and speak it well. I got stuck in that class so oh well. Since the beginning I am doing well in all of them and I should be. Some classes are really far apart but I managed to get there in time.
The work of the classes were most of them easy and algebra I'm starting to get better at which makes me happy. My cluster is almost the same as it was last year which is hard if you don't study because you constantly take tests. Culinary Arts is most of the time fum because I mostly cook things I've never heard of but they do taste good. I know that I am doing much better this year than last year because I was slacking off and was mostly lazy and I am surprised that I passed all the STAAR tests and I could've done much better if I took last year more seriously.
This six weeks went pretty by fast and I should have a good report card coming in because I know I did good. Finding the classes were a lot more easier than my freshman year by a big difference. Now I am just hoping that I keep doing the same for the rest of the school or even better and just hope that I went slack off by the middle of the year. I found out that my problem is the middle to the end of the year my grades begin to drop like every year. I need to fix that because I am not taking any risks this year because I want to be a junior I seiously don't want to flunk and I am not even going to think about becoming a drop out. I want to graduate that bad.
