Boy 21

 I just finished reading boy 21 and it was very marvelous because while reading it I could compare myself to it. This book showed a part of life that sometimes people don't look into. What I really liked about this book is that it showed how you can lose someone fast due to gangs. In this book there was a boy named finely he had a grandpa and a dad. Finley had no other for he had lost her in a whole thing that was related with mob money. Finely would play basketball with his girlfriend Erin they were both on the varsity team. But what really captivated my attention towards this book was how they played basketball and lost some parents. I really do recommend this book it's very interesting and good.

Arguments

         The worst argument I've ever had was with my sibling. This argument had started because he had done something I didn't agree with. That was because he was disrespecting me and I was not going to stand for it . So it came out in a huge argument between us. It was only the two of us at the argument at the time. Then we we're yelling at each other. I was very mad and aggravated. I learned that some arguments aren't worth  fighting for. That argument was foolish and had no point so I decided to just let it be. I started to develop hate for my brother.


Later on three weeks later we still weren't speaking to each other I didn't speak to him he didn't speak to me it worked like that. Then I spoke to him finally because I didn't find the argument we had that big. Also he's my brother so I spoke to him and we made up at the end of it we were just fine. Like brother and sister we have arguments but overcome and to this day we joke around and have fun. So the solution was to talk calmly about the situation.

Fake it till you become it

    I feel very confident about my writing because every time I write it is a good way for me just to express my thinking onto a peice of paper. I think I need to speak a bit more so I can become it. So I can actually" fake it till I become it". I don't really speak loud or that much so I think I need a little bit of a confident boost in that. If you want to watch the the video it's in a link below.

Spreading Kindness

         This winter break I gave back by helping out my neighbors and cleaning their driveways from the frozen ice by putting some salt. I felt like helping out because the month of December is the month of giving and being grateful from what you give and get. Although my neighbors are a bit irritational I decided to take away the trouble of them having to do it themselves.In the end I felt good about myself and that's that.
