Endings and Beginnings

        The feeling you get when you start a new book or movie is very different from the feeling you get when you end it. You feel excited when you begin the book but you feel sad when the book ends. 
        The same thing applied to me when I started going to Golf Middle School and how my time here is ending. When I started 5th grade, I was so excited to finally start going to middle school. Even though I would leave Hynes behind, I was anxious to meet new teachers, new classes, and new opportunities alongside my classmates and friends. 
        And now that the end of 8th grade has come I realized the 3 years following 5th grade flew by without me even realizing it. I created new memories and learned a lot. I don't want to leave my second home, and the people I've gone to school with since second grade, who I might not talk to again in high school. But at the same time, I want to move on to high school, meet new friends, and try new things. I've realized that endings aren't really endings at all. Endings are really just new beginnings.

My Childhood Shows and Toys

Image
                Do you remember the Backyardigans? Dora the Explorer? Teletubbies? These are some of the shows that were popular when I was younger, but there were a lot more I spent my time watching.          One of my favorite shows was Kim Possible. I fell in love with the show when I was around 6 or 7 years old, and I used to play a game where I acted like I was Kim Possible. I stopped evil villains in their tracks, and still attended "high-school" (which was only a couple minutes long).  But, I eventually got bored of this game because there was no one to play with and no evil villain  to defeat.         But I still loved the show and the characters. My favorite character was the main character, Kim Possible, because I thought she was really cool, and I kind of looked up to her.   A toy that reminds me of my childhood was my LeapFrog Explorer.  When I was 4 years old, ...

The NFL and Police Brutality

Image
        It's 2017. By now prejudice and racism against other people should end in the U.S., but the very little progress we made had retreated.          Starting off with Colin Kaepernick, NFL players have been standing up (more like kneeling down) against this issue by taking a knee during the National Anthem instead of what is expected. The peaceful protest gained more popularity when  Donald Trump commented on it, saying that the NFL players that kneeled down should be kicked out of the stadium.          There are many different opinions on this. Some people are saying that kneeling before the flag is disrespectful, which is why they shouldn't do it. But I understand why they would, considering what is going on in the U.S. such as police brutality and the Charleston incident.          Going back to the tweet from Donald Trump, saying that NFL players like Kaepernick should ...

Some Shows You Must Watch on Netflix

Image
        I can't think of only  one show that is a great binge, so I'll name a few. Just remember, these are only 3 shows of the many that could be named right now.         The first show, which a lot of people are probably writing about, is Stranger Things. Even though  I haven't had the time to watch Season Two of it yet, the first season was really good, and I expect Season Two to be better. The show is about a 12-year old boy, Will, who goes missing. His friends and his family try to find him and discover that the government and supernatural forces have something to do with his disappearance. I don't want to get into it too much because I'll probably give away spoilers, but it gets really good.         If you like crime TV shows, the next show is for you. My dad would always be watching Prison Break when I was around 9 years old, and I would always just watch along with him, but I never really understoo...
