Who's knowledgeable, literate, powerful

KNOWLEDGEABLE- My favorite first cousin Tierra La'chelle Brown is knowledgeable in many ways she is so smart it just makes me feel so left out like DUMB because its like she knows everything off the told of her head. I wish she was still here so that I can get all the help I need from her but she is doing something with her life going too school at CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, too be an Lawyer she has a lot of degrees in many differnet things and she is only twenty years of age, I love her dearly like she was one of my big sister If I need an answer to anything or any advice I can call on her when ever I needed too. If she knew what my grades was looking like right about now "OH MY" she would go off on me so bad that it'll make me want too shead a tear.

My way of learning

My way of  learning
My different ways of learning is...basically If I study something and see something more than one time then I'll remember it by heart because its something I see over and over again. I can remember faces but not names if they not around me, I can remember songs without hearing them if I listened too them more than once, sometimes I got to think awhile before I understand lecture. Sketching things can make me understand more an drawing. If I see it and write it down I'll remember without going back and look such s taking notes making flashcards or making a song out of my homework to help me remember . Annotating
things and circling and highlighting things also help a lot of people learn. But some people have a lot of different ways too learn suxh as just listening too something they'll get it right then and there they dont't need too the overhead projector or a book too take there's notes. I have also learned from my mistakes at I've done in the pass such as not taking notes reading my book or pay attention when the teacher is trying to explain too me whats going on and what I need too study for, but its like it never fails because I find myself doing the same mistakes when I get lazy I dont' want to do nothing or when Im irritated I just be like now I'm not doing this then I get to thinking in he long run well maybe i should of did that because if you do what you suppose to do it pays off and you'll have nothing too worry about it later on in life or whenever. My boyfriend and  family and teacher always tell me not too give up keep going because they know im smarter than what I am I just don't apply my self how im suppose too.

My First Boyfriend

My Love & I On His Birthday

We got to talking more and more as time went by took step by step one day he came over too my house too meet my mother and siblings , they were so happy that I had finally got a boyfriend but I felt that  was to youg because I was only in the seventh grade we started to spend more time together and he asked me to be his girlfriend one day but I was so shy I didn't know what to say I blushing because i really liked him I felt that we had a lot in common and that he can understand me a lot eveytime I was sad he made me happy if I was having a bad day he made it exciting he cheered me up when I was sad and down.

Megan Cox Gurdon & Sherman Alexie

Amy Freeman is a 46 year old mother of three kids. I n her younger nobles he said that she felt thwarted and disheartened, "It was all vampires and suicide and self-mutilation, this dark dark stuff". She also said if book showed us the world, teen fiction can be like a hall of fun-house mirrors, constantly reflecting back hideously distorted portravals of what life is there are of course exception, but a careless young reader-or one who seeks out depravity- will find himself surrounded by images not of joy or beauty but of damage, brutality and losses of the most horrendous kinds. If adolescent spend their time immersed in ugliness probably depends on your philosophical outlook. Reading about homicide doesn't turn a man into a murderer; reading about cheating on exams won't make a kid break the honor code. Basically this lady is making kids interested.


Well there was this young girl in high school that was about to be a teen mother and one day there was this administrators told her that there was no way that she could make it through high school, so they recommended that she gets her (GED) which is a General Education degree and move on with her life. She had taken the (GED) test an thought that is was way to easy for her so she transferred to a alternative high school, and is now the mother of three-year-old and a high school graduate soon too attend college. She have yet receive a letter from a child somehow debilitated by the domestic violence, drug abuse. racism, poverty, sexuality, and murder contained in my box.
