New

Everything we have done on Excel, is pretty mush new for me. I have never had a computer class, or worked with Excel before. I am glad that I am learning Excel though because I know it will be good to know for the future. I have seen my parents use it many times, So I'm sure I will.

4 day weekend.

Saturday night my friends Alysha, Emily, and Janis spent the night with me, and sunday we got up and ate a huge breakfast and hung out. Everyone had to leave early excpet for Alysha. And when we found out sunday that we wouldn't have school monday we were thrilled! I told my mom, and she didn't believe me. So she called Matt Rivers and asked him to ask his grandma, Dr. Rivers, and when he did she accpeted that we didn't have school. So my sister, and I spent the night at Alysha's house. That night we went to the movies and saw Mirrors, I didn't like it. It wasn't scary, and was a bit boring. Then monday morning we slept in until 2:30, and then went to town with Chris. Chris had to get his hair cut so me and Alysha went to J&D design down the road, and hung out with our youth pastor, he works there. Then Chris bought us McDonalds. Tuesday i ate Zaxbys with Alysha and watched Black Hawk Down with her, Chris, and Cody. All together it was a good weekend.

Fay

I don't watch the news much but from what i saw this morning the Tropical Storm Fay seems pretty bad. Hopefully it will calm down soon, and not hurt anyone like a few hurricanes have done in the past. I don't have any family members or friends in Florida, Thank God. My family lives in Mississippi and have already lost a home due to a hurricane, and I wouldn't want anyone else to go through that.

Future Now

I thought that the Future Now Assembly was good. I think what they had to say was importnat and that a ton of people in Coffee County need to hear it. I'm sure some people thought it was dumb, but I liked it. If everyone did what they were talking about like staying in shcool, not doing drugs, not stealing the world would be a much better place. I went to Future Now at night too and that was more about God and about you surrendering your life to him, and a lot of people listened and I think put there faith in God's hands so I am definitely glad we had it at our school.

Monday & Tuesday

I thought the class behaved pretty well, there was a little bit of talking, but i think that is to be expected. It seemed to me that everyone got there work done both days. I finished mine both days and still had time left in class. Our substitute was very nice, told us what to do, and let us do it.

Cheating:(

I think that cheating is completely wrong. Cheating in any situation is always wrong. It's unfair to yourself, and others. If you study all night long for a test and your classmate writes it on his hand and makes a better grade than you it isn't very fair, now is it? Or imagine if you had a doctor who cheated all through out college and had no idea what he was doing, that would be pretty scary. And if you cheat in school you aren't learning anything, so if you aren't even learning why come to school at all?

Excel

The parts of the microsoft Excel opening screen is the highlight, row numbers, name box, standard toolbox, title bar, menu bar, formula bar, column letters, formatting toolbar, getting started task pane, and the scroll bars.

I have never watched the Olympics. So I'm not very up to date or in the know with what is happening there in China. I have heard a little about the man from China who killed Americans and I definitely think it will affect our relationship with China. And it is pretty obvious we shouldn't have held the Olympics there.

5 Goals for 2008-09 School Year

My Goals as a Senior this year at Coffee High are as follows:

1.)Raise my GPA so i will be an honors grad.

4.)Fill out applications for college, and hopefully be accepted somewhere.

5.)Have the best 18th birhtday ever!
