Anderson High School.


I went to the same school from the time that I was 3 to the time that I was 14. The graduating 8th grade class had 43 people in it. WE were all really close, we were a family. I miss them all the time. Anderson is so different. There are like 700 people in the Freshman class, and the actual High School has three floors. My old school was one hallway. I have met some really cool people here at Anderson though, andthere are a ton of things to be involved in. I like my schedule and most of my classes. I would love to drop Teen Leadership, but then again so does everybody else. I went to some of the football games, I love watching High School football, and they were pretty fun. my cousin Kelsey is on the drill team, and I some friends in the band. Anderson is pretty cool. GO TROJANS!!

Summer 2008


I had a very eventful Summer this year. i did the whole Freshman orientation, and I was also a camp counsulor. i was in charge of 16 girls ages 9-13. I ended up getting like 17 hours of sleep for the entire week. It was nuts! I also went to Western Europe. It was absoulutly AMAZING!! I loved it! We wnet to England, Scotland, Ireland, and France. We were there for a total of 3 weeks. I especially loved Edinburgh.

Illeagal immigrants


This is a really big topic in the U.S. The government really wants to stop illegal immigration and tighten border security. I think that immigrants are what keeps a country going, they bring new cultural aspects, and new points of veiw. I just wish that there was a way to make everyone happy. Most of the illeagal immigrants are from Mexico, and crossing the border in some area is EXTREMELY dangerous. They come beacause of the job oppertunities in the US, and the fact that they can make a better life for themselves here because the US has better health care and education. I wish that they would just do things legally, then ther wouldn't be any problems. Right now there is alot of fear and decption, and that is no way to live. I dont know if I could go about my normal life everyday with the fear that I might be detained, deported, or die.
