Treasures

For my sisters 20th birthday I got her this jewelry box.It was about the time when school was going to start and I was planing on buying my backpack that day.But I first went to go see how much the bag I wanted was and then I decided I would go see what I could give my sisters for her birthday.I found this really cute jewelry box and I was planning on getting her something else but I really wanted to get that for her so I choose to get my sister a gift and no the backpack.Then later of Christmas she gave me a jewelry box also.It has engraved on it" " .So I really think that something special that me and my sister share.Anothe really special gift I have gotten was my necklace with my name on it.It has a lot sentimental value to me and it always gonna be something I cherish forever and it's a memory of my godfather so in a way it's a part of him and me.Those are gift that are very speaical to me.

The Meaning of My Name

My name is Ashley and my sister named me. Back then the show full house was playing and my sisters loved the show.Originially my names was to be Luisa after my dads mom.But my mom never really liked the idea of naming someone after someone.Because the person being named has their own identity.Which is where my oldest sister decided to give my mom a name and that name was Ashley.Michelle was the little girl in Full House but her real name was Ashley Olsen.So I'm named after Ashley Olsen.I have my dads last name which means like a wall.Its a Spanish origin.My moms last name I believe my uncle told me it means short people standing on rocks which always makes me laugh.

"Tough time don't last Tough people do"

This quote means so much to me because I think everyone has gone throug tough times.It basically means that the tough time come and go.But the only thing that stays is you.You might be the same before and after a tough situation.Also because every situation is different some are not as bad and some are terriable.I think this quote give people hope that the tough times end but to be strong throught them.It makes people want to be strong thought these tough times and persevere through the tough time.Out of al the quotes this is the one that stuck with me.It connects with cause we have those rough patches but it reminds me to preserve though it.This is one quote has so much meaning to me.

"Never let things you WANT forget the things you HAVE"

I'm thankful for my mom and my sisters.My mom means so much to me I honestly don't know if I can live without her.But I will say one thing you'll never be bored when your with her.She's always making fun of me or my sisters or just doing something weird.If not her and my sister Karen gain up on me.I find it amazing that my mom and my sister Karen are so alike.My oldest sister Cristal annoys me to death at times but I'm still grateful for her.Although with her I'm normally the one to gain up on her.She always finds it annoying when me and my sister Karen start to play fight with each other.Although we may not be as close as me and my other sister Karen I still love her.I'm also thankful for my best friends. I have four amazing best friends I honestly don't know what I would do without them.I don't really have anything else to be thankful for except the life.The life god gave.Which is the most important think in my personal opinion.With god we would have the clothes on our backs,the food we eat,the roof over our heads etc.I have many things to be thankful this thanksgiving but these people are the most important to me.

Best day ever!!!l

Normally the best day ever is like a persons birthday or a holiday. I personally consider a regular day the best day. The best day ever way when I got to go to the mall with my best friends. Well anytime I get tos spend with my best friends is good because we're always laughing and just having a good time. That day we laughted so much my stomach hurt and I was crying. One week into summer vacation we already needed to see each other. Of course every person like to spend time with there friends pot best friends. But this day felt like I could see a lifetime of friendship ahead. We did everything from try in things to make fun of each other and overall make each other laugh. It was the hardest thing when they left home and only two of us were left. I wish every day could be like that nonstop laughing and smiling. If I could go back in time I'm 100% sure I would go back to that day.

Sportily Banned, Middle School Kids Furious!

Ever wonder if a student is really paying attention? A group of students from Heritage Middle School used technology in an improper way. This event took place towards the end of the school year. There are many ways of instant messaging with other people in the building or even outside of the building. These student in particular used the app called "Spotify". Spotify is an app in which you can listen to music. But you can do more than that you can also instant message with other people. Once the teachers found out about the problem with this app they were furious and loony. To think that they were teaching and the students weren't even paying attention or getting any work done. Could this be the reason some students weren't doing good in class? Even to think that students could've been talking with someone outside of the building/room is crazy.
The teachers came together and made a plan on how they would deal with the situation. Of course they went back and forth on how they would approach the situation. But it was also hard to choose what to do because the students could find somewhere else to message with there peers. Finally the teachers decided they would ban Spotify not even to be listening to music only. Before that they made sure anyone that had the app would uninstall it off of their device. .At the time if they had it would received an instant foul. Anytime after that if they were caught  using Spotify they would revive a falcon foul. For those students using technology inappropriately revived a detention. What was going on spread quickly around the school. Of course the students found it irritating and were angry.Then later on they also  they question why they don't have a good grade in class. Although annoyed with the teachers could have it been the best call to ban Spotify . If the students were smart they wouldn't use it or else they would face the consequenc
