Seek Meaning In Your Life

Okayyyyy....

So my last post was about my school, so is this one. My school has 5 main goals. The first one is in my last post. The second one is "Seek Meaning In Your Life".

Things I Like To Do:
  • Sleep
  • Dance
  • Be With My Friends
  • Family Parties
  • Visit Wheat Ridge High School


Random things right? Well, Those are just a few things I have sought out that I like to do. I know I will find more things I like to do but I know I have completed this goal because I have sought out meaning in my life.



Song: Promiscuous

Re Discover The Joy Of Learning

If you guys haven't seen on my blog, I go to an alternative school. It is called Jefferson County Open School. We don't have grades and we call our teachers by their first names. Yeah, go ahead, say it is weird. But it is probably better than your school so...

Our school has 5 main goals. I am going to talk about the 1st one. It is "Re Discover The Joy Of Learning". Is doesn't need much explaining, it is what it is. I have gone to this school since kindergarten and it has helped me rediscover the joy of learning because "other schools aren't fun".

I am actually going to go off topic for a second. I want to switch schools. I absolutely love this school but I need a change. By doing this, I am rediscovering the joy of learning if I like it at the school I am going to visit. That wasn't really off topic but I thought you would want an example.

There isn't much to say about this topic, sorry, I wish i had more to say...

#HowHaveYouReDiscoveredTheJoyOfLearning?


Like I said, I would post one of my favorite songs at the time, here is this post's song:

Song: Work Out

Open Post :D

Dear Blogging Class,

I love you! You have helped me through my blogging and grammar problems! I have only been blogging for a few weeks and I have only done my required assignments. I am so sorry! I promise I will start writing on you as often as I can. It feels like a need because I am taking the class.

This is completely random, but Jenna Marbles is an awesome person. I think I should tell you about my love for her. She posts videos on YouTube every Wednesday. She is straight forward and doesn't give an eff what you think. I love that about her. I started reading her blog over the summer and thought to myself, hmmm..."Maybe I should start a Blog, but what on?!" I thought for days about what I would blog about and how it would work because I never thought of myself as a good writer. I wanted a blog just like Jenna's. I saw Megan& Mitzi's Class on Blogging and I was like "NO WAY JOSE! I am sooooo taking this class!" I love this class so much!

I have gotten so much better at blogging, even thought I don't want to think so. I am basically going to just end this as me telling you how much I LOVE YOU!!!


Here are two helpful grammar videos:
Another thing, I am going to post one of my favorite songs I am listening to at the end of each of my Blogs. Here is mine for this Post:

Song: Should've Kissed You
Artist: Chris Brown <3

1000 Awesome Things

His Story:
SPOILER ALERT!
Go watch the video first, if you want of course!

--Everything was going almost perfectly in his life until around 2008 and 2009. it was about ice caps melting, wars going on around the world, earthquakes, hurricanes and an economy that was wobbling on the brink of collapse, and then eventually did collapse. His marriage was falling apart, and then it did. And along with all of that, his friend, who was battling cancer, took his own life. He was in a terrible situation and one night, came home from work, logged onto the computer and made a website called 1000 Awesome things.(  http://1000awesomethings.com/ ). On his website, he talks about the tiniest things in life that make everything seem a little bit better, Awesome Things. Everything from Seeing baby photos of your boyfriend or girlfriend for the first time to The core of a cinnamon roll to Going really fast over speed bumps in the back of a school bus (those are just some of the most recent ones). He thinks of the smallest, yet most amazing things in life...(: GO CHECK IT OUT!
The 3 A's:

  • Attitude 




  • Awareness




  • Authenticity





  • So Attitude:
    -Of course, it is always good to have a positive attitude but it's also best not to get your hopes up. You know? I'm Not really sure what to say for this, I am not in a blogging mood so it's hard! D:

    Awareness:
    -You Got'sta be AWARE!  Like Neil said, 3 year olds are so aware of what is around them. We should be like that! Go on some nature walk or something. Find crazy things that you've never seen before, take pictures, Do stuff!
    -I don't even know what this means! I googled it, and nothing explained it very well...so, if you really want to know how I feel about this, Comment and I will edit it into this!
