My Old High School

My old high school is in Huntington Beach, California.  It is near the beach.  The name of the school is Edison High School, and we were called the Chargers.  When I was a student there we had a very good football team, a surf team, and volleyball team.  I played on the volleyball team.  Every Friday we went to the football games and had a very good time.  We cheered and sometimes faught with the other school.  Our school's colors were green and gold.  After the football games we went back to the school and talked with our friends.  Edison is made of brick.  It is not a pretty school, but we loved our school very much.  I still remember some of my teachers, and I especially remember my friends.

Opening a Conversation

FOCUS:
Today the focus in class was Opening a Conversation.  We first watched a short video about Radiohead called Meeting People is Easy.  We describe the problem that people are too nervous.  This happens to all of us.  It happens because society and culture are difficult for some people.
I NEED TO:
Relax and understand I am not perfect, and it’s ok to make mistakes.  I must be patient with other people also, and not judge them
I INTEND TO:
In the future I will try to be patient with other people and accept other people without being judgmental.  I will also try to remember that I’m not perfect and it’s ok to make mistakes.
