My feelings on blogging...
Blogging is not something I necessarily enjoy but I don't hate it. To me, it just seems more efficient and self-serving to take the first ten minutes of class to discuss what books we're reading with our peers rather than blog about it. I feel like there are certain things I can't blog about because A) it will spoil the entire book B) it will spoil the entire series or C) it sounds extremely dorky when I attempt to explain it. I always seem to find myself on the computer Sunday night at eleven in a frantic, last ditch effort to upload a post before midnight (I always make it :) ). Over all, blogging was not a bad experience, but it's not one I would do voluntarily do.
My feelings on reading...
Reading is something I love doing. I finished the entire final book of the Harry Potter series in one day and am extremely proud of the fact. I love predicting what the characters' next moves will be and I find that it is a great way to do nothing. Reading is what inspired me to write, which in turn inspired me to try out for Power of the Pen, which led to several medals and publications and me co-coaching one of the Junior High teams. Reading is how I relax and is something I truly enjoy.
Freshman year...
I absolutely love high school. I came in knowing absolutely nobody and it was awesome. I could completely start over and begin school without any predispositions. I ran Cross Country (and loved it), participated in Writer's Block (and loved it), took an art class (and loved it), I ran Track (and loved it) and I made so many good friends. I became faster, smarter, and more social (meaning I finally got a Twitter and Snapchat). Mason has so much to offer and I'm really looking forward next year.
