Michael Jackson Should Get a Nobel Peace Prize

Michael Jackson should most definitely get a Nobel Peace Prize! The king of pop is the most influential musician in history. I'm not gonna lie, at one point in everyone's life they fell in love with his music. He can reach out to people of every age with his lyrics.
People want him to get nominated for a peace prize so bad, that over 15, 000 have signed a petition for it to happen. more on the petition here.
He has seriously made a difference in the world. He loved kids and he dedicated his life to them. He wrote songs that spread a positive message to everyone in the world. An example of one of his songs is "Man in the Mirror". It has meaning, and can motivate anyone.
Michael has supported 39 charities, some of them include Make A Wish, Volunteers of America, YMCA, and AIDS project. you can check out the other ones here.
Though a lot of people diss him, you've got to admit, everyone has loved Michael Jackson's music at one point. It's all catchy and fun. You really can't deny a musical genius like him. He's got the moves, and the voice.

He also worked very hard to get where he was and he succeeded. He has been dedicated to music ever since he was a kid. He had some amazing talent and it paid off very well for him.
He decided to use his fame and fortune for good. His whole career he dedicated to charities, wrote moving songs, and he even made an amusement park for kids. It's called Neverland.

Michael is so loved that even President Obama had something to say about him. He said that Michael will "go down in history as one of our greatest entertainers." want more on that? My favorite thing that he said is, "I’m just like anyone. I cut and I bleed. And I embarrass easily." He shows that he is human, and thats another reason why he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

Michael Jackson is the greatest man in musical history. He's made people from all over the world fall in love with him. I know this because every music artist I listen to say that Michael Jackson has influenced their music. Ever since before I was born he was so big and right after I was born he still was. Michael Jackson and his music will never die out. He's made too much of an impact on the world for that to happen.

It's Fall!

Fall is actually one of my favorite seasons. Summer is too hot and humid, Spring is too rainy, and Winter is too lifeless and dead, but Fall on the other hand is perfect weather. Also It's so colorful outside, you know all the leaves all over the place! In fall you have all sorts of fun events. Like Halloween, MY BIRTHDAY(:, Thanksgiving, and you can never forget going to the cider mill and apple orchard! OH, AND THERE'S NO MOSQUITOES OUT TO BUG YOU!

I love the weather in Fall so much. When It's 50 degrees out, I get a nice big smile on my face because I know that's my signal to grab a blanket, a warm drink and cuddle on the couch! In Winter I seriously hate wearing a big puffy coat, so that's another thing that makes me happy about fall... I get to wear hoodies. So for you're wardrobe, you have the perfect amount of layers. Jeans, a tee, and a hoodie. It couldn't get anymore simpler than that.

Fall is so festive. Everybody gets their pumpkins out on their front porch, along with their scarecrows and Halloween decorations! I love seeing everyone get excited for Halloween, I love dressing up too. You can't forget Thanksgiving either! Spending some quality time with your family is good, even if you can't stand them sometimes. What's even better though, is the food! This year I became a vegetarian, so compared to my family, I'll have a little less variety. One thing I'm bummed out for though, is the fact that I didn't go to the apple orchard yet! That's the first thing I look forward to when Fall comes.

Now that I've said most of the things I love about Fall, of course there's some that I hate. Like raking the leave in the front yard. It take forever, but I guess you get a workout out of it. haha. Also I don't like the fact that it's mostly night in fall. I like it light out so when I am with a friend, I don't have to come in early because "it's too dark to be walking around." Those are the only bad things about fall though, it's great!

Wait. I forgot another good thing about fall... THE PUMPKINS. (: They're fun to carve, they have the best seeds to eat, and you can actually make a pie with them!

Better Be Prepared

The sound of my alarm at its highest is what wakes me up this morning. So many questions go through my head, but then I realize only one thing...TODAY IS MY FIRST DAY OF HIGH SCHOOL! I jump out of bed like a 5 year old who just saw candy. I am filled with a mix of anxiety and excitement to be a freshman. I could of swore I almost have a panic attack.
As I finish getting ready, I hear a knock at the door. I instinctively know it is my best friend Glevisa. I open the door and there she is with a smile on her face. I grab her arm and yell, "AHHH! We're gonna be in high school!" She replies with a look of entertainment on her face, "Wow Jos, you're not going to survive today." I laugh and say, "Whatever, let's get to the bus stop." As we get to the bus stop I have already made a fool of myself. When I get on the bus my heart starts racing as fast as it could. Once we get closer to the school I want to go back home as fast as I can.
My friends and I get off the bus and take a deep breath. They deny they are nervous, and they certainly don't show that they are as much as me. We walk up the stairs, go through the door, and suddenly all of my thoughts just ease away. My feet lead me to my locker and I know from then on everything would be alright. I guess orientation did me well because I know my way to all of my classes! There are so many people that go to Stevenson! When it's passing time I can't even breath because there are so many people in the halls, and there's a lot of traffic.
Throughout the day I come to realize that this is it; this is high school. My classes go by so slow that I find myself daydreaming about homecoming and what memories I will gain. Lunch came along, and luckily I have friends in my lunch! I went back to class and went on with my day and then suddenly, I'm taken by surprise when I hear the bell signaling at the end of 6th hour. I thought I was done, but I remembered I have a 7th hour! I thought, "Joy."
I was actually shocked to know that everything on my first day of high school went okay. I actually like it. In fact compared to middle school it's so much better. I really enjoy the freedom that we have, and the way everyone just minds their own business and just makes their way to class. I have my friends by my side, and I am ready for the next for years of it! Ithink i overreacted to the idea of taking a step forward. I guess I really am prepared.

ANARBOR is my all time favorite band. All of their songs are good to me. And I am in love with the lead singer’s voice!
Bobo is my dog. He is a Yorkie and he is really annoying.

Home is where I'd rather be most of the time. I am not really the person to go out and about.
I don't like taking pictures. I'm not really photogenic!
Julie is my SUPER ANNOYING sister. She is a year younger than me, and even though we should be friends, she purposely tries to drive me crazy... and it works!
K is a really hard letter and I can't think of anything for it!
Lying is not a skill for me, and I hate it when people lie to me. It just gets you into a deeper hole then before.
Music is my favorite thing to listen to for some down time! I'm always up for listening to new bands and music!
Nothing can change my mind about Arnold Palmers! They are the ultimatley the best drink for summer time!

The First Two Weeks of My Freshman Year.

The morning of my first day at Stevenson, I pretty much had a panic attack. I thought highschool would be just like on t.v., and that I had a lot to worry about. Odd enough though, as I walked through the doors of Stevenson, everything got easy from there on. I new my way around the school, had no problems opening my locker, and new where my classes were. Nothing much happened on the 1st or second day, it was all about rules and the teachers talking.


The people in my classes are okay, I am not friends with them and most of the are new to public school. I think that's a good thing though. It's a chance to make new friends. My favorite part of my whole day though, is lunch. I have it with my 2 bestfriends Glevisa and Dani. In lunch my friend Payal introduced us to this new girl named Brittany, and soon enough we became friends. The best part is, there's no awkwardness between our group. Also, at lunch they have the best fries! My least favorite part of the day is Geometry it is so boring and confusing.


Something I don't really like about highschool is, the hallways are so crowded, and they are so hot from everybody's body heat. I know this because in the morning it is freezing and the second I walk into the school I want to take off my sweater right away. I am also used to the whole middle school thing because there were only 2 grades walking around everywhere, and now there is double that, but I guess I am used to this now.

Despite the how crowded it is I actually like highschool. I am looking forward to my next 4 years at Stevenson, it's really fun!
