Problems and Struggles

I know for a fact that I cannot categorize everyone's everyday struggles under a general basis because they attend Bell High School. If I were to take a guess, the only problem I can assume most students have is their family having a stable financial status. As our surroundings surely affect us we do spend one-third of our day in school. Many things can can occur during an eight hour time period. We can understand that teenagers aren't always a mature crowd and for example often don't know a proper way to handle a situation. Some can take things out of proportion and don't process or realize that a situation is usually misunderstood . Others can have different problems such as bullying or stressed due to the courses they are taking. These are very few examples. Problems can also develop in their household. What happens once the student goes home ? It maybe experiencing emotional or even physical abuse or maybe just witnessing it. There are many factors at play that we must take into consideration. Although one thing is for sure is that the school is overcrowded. In all classes students experience having many peers and it has happened that teachers need to request more chairs. In my freshman year, my P.E teacher said he had never experienced having 60 students. He always had 40 or even a little bit over but never 60. It must be a hassle for teachers that teach advanced classes due to the work they give out. Not only that but another downside is that students don't receive the attention they could get individually. An experience all students need because in college, students need to learn how to approach their professors. Having if they had those experiences they would not feel as intimidated because they would be use to conversing one on one their academic progress.

The Most Interesting Person in the World

The most intersting person that I have ever encountered I would have to say is Martha Alcaraz . She is interesting because we can be hanging out and she blurts out the funniest and random things ever.  However,Martha acts very different in a professional atmosphere for obvious reasons but when she gets  comfortable you can learn a lot from a social perspective. I can say I am sociable but Martha her personality is so unique in its own way. All our friends can agree with me because she can say something and our reaction can be like "Who says that" but in a good way. I don't like having I guess "normal" friends because that would be boring . We always are cracking jokes and Martha just has a way that she makes everyone bring out their silly side.

What Music Means to Me

 I feel that music can shape my mood. I don't listen to all types of music but a variety . It can relax me like if I'm feeling stressed I will play classical music and lit a candle so the fragrance can relax me as well. There are songs that I like just because of the rif or the bass . There are also song because the lyrics can be like art and say alot about the artist. Music to me is like theme park that one can create for themselves it can be a get away or it can be a heck of a ride. I wouldn't know how to say what it means to me because if I look at it overall I listen to pop,r&b,hiphop, alternative rock, classic rock, and rap.I can go on and on on each type of music but to me music is self expression but in the sense that other artist have done the work to express the feeling for me.
