Myron's school visit

Yesterday I visited my old high school and to find out bad news. Peoria High’s Mr. Simmons picks up the microphone and says, “We have 186 students out today because of the flu. I’m concerned and worried about their health. I stepped back and left out. Now my friends and family go to that school so I became very worried. I hate to have kids out of school because school attendance gives a good look to your jobs. But still with school work being held back makes our students not learn as much. We already in the hole for slow learners and don’t need more. But my thought is that maybe out of those 186 students about 80 is faking it. I mean I went to Peoria High for four years and I played that game once or twice, maybe 3 times. But I saw my old principle face just sink in. I never saw his face like that. The halls were much emptier than last year. I knew something was wrong with this year. In school was super empty and quite. I was like man am I’m the only one here. Kids were actually in class instead of halls for the first time. I bet the teachers were much surprised and sadden by absent students. I see no changes done in the teacher’s act. They still teach the same which is great. I love the teaching method they teach in because it’s more comprehending than others around Peoria. Over all I saw my old second home for the first time since class of “09”.

main topic problem

When I write I see I have a hard time figuring out how to get my statement across. I feel I get it across in my way but to my peers I just don’t seem like it get to them. I believe that mainly I tend to try to please the teacher and forget about others but that’s not what’s asked for. My statement can be about eating a hotdog and I’ll mention about eating chicken then a hot dog. I rather not talk about one topic and that’s all. I see no excuse for what I do it’s just that I grew up learning like that. I always have the thought in mind that I’m doing a good job but when the teacher grades it I’m really surprised. When that’s all over stress is done and I’m relieved. Now I see that I can make changes to get this topic across and make it so much better to my teacher. Not only she does that but she teaches me how to show a lead. With that lead is there I can attract the president if I wanted. Well that’s how I feel when I’m writing. It may sound like I’m cocky in writing but the teacher always find mistakes. I just have in mind that if you’re not confident in writing it’s hard to get that better grade. So I may fall off my topic a little because I see that there’s always a little more detail out there that may excite you.

myron's

What is it with these gangs in peoria? Yesterday on the news I see peoria are growing out of hand in this small town. Peoria was compared to the much larger states like California and Texas. I smiled but felt bad like Peoria finally made the news for the wrong reason. I want peoria on there for making history and not on there for runing people away. Im not scared of the streets but everyone doesnt feel the same as everyone else. I saw that gangs has calmed down since projects were knocked down but that didnt stop it. People just move to nicer places and cause trouble there. I came up with the ideals to just put them away to make this city and other places a better area. I see that it wont make change but a little change. Would you want your future kids living in that danger? There is danger all around but all I ask for is to slim it down. I knew alot of people in gangs but didnt act as stupid as kids today.
