Independence

Hey guys, 


When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for me to dissolve the bands which have connected me with homework, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that I should declare the causes which impel me to the separation. I want to declare independence from homework because I think that it does not make sense. I think that some homework is useful because if it is something like reading it makes sense because it is not something we did in class and it is needed but we do not have time to do it in class. Homework like something that is just a review of what we did in the class does not make sense to me. Why should we go to school for 8 hours and then after it we have homework that is the same thing we did in at school. It just does not make much sense to me.

I think that Junior is a leader because he is the first one to leave the rez, and who knows maybe later some other kids will leave the rez. His sister leaves the rez and gets married because of him. She moves to montana.

“Where I’m From”

Junior

I am from fighting

and struggling

I am from small houses

and smaller rooms

I am from bad schools

And lost hope

I am from traditional Native dinners

I am from tradition and poverty

I am from racism and bullying

I am from hardships and bravery

I am from the eternal loop

and seclusion, a never ending

cycle of generations

I am from drawing,

comics, and learning

I am from uncertainty and curiosity

I am from the thinkers and the seekers

I think that Rowdy is a leader because he is sort of mean and scary but people look up to him because he fights for what he thinks is right. He doesn't follow anyone, he makes his own path

“Where I’m From”

Rowdy

I am from toughness and attitude

I am from few friends and

many enemies

I am from drunk parents

and fighting

I am from “survive” and protect

From racism and poverty

I am from the old houses,

bad schools, and bad parents

I am from the forgotten

and the lost

The abandoned and the lonely

The strong and powerful

I am from cartoons and hopelessness

I am from the unheard and the unloved

3 Tribes

Hey guys so today I am going to talk about three "tribes" that I associate with. One of the three tribes that I associate are dogs. I have two dogs, both of them are golden retrievers although one of them is an english cream golden retriever so it is white. The second tribe that I associate is sports. I play many different sports and like them, I mainly just play basketball and volleyball but I like most sports. The third tribe that I associate with is music. I play the saxophone and am in the school band, I also love listening to music in my free time. Overall I have a couple more tribes that I associate with but those are some of them.
