Yesterday It was Jennifer's birthday and my house social worker brought her cupcakes. She had care bears rings in them. I took 3 of her rings and went to the office. Chelsea and I were up there talking to Robin about certain things and stuff. There were 3 boys getting interviews by Tia. We asked them if they liked it here and they said no. Then we got to talk to Tia, so we went in to her office. After we left we went home for dinner hour. When study hour was done Chelsea and I went outside. It was a crazy night. People got in a fight, people went AWOL and it turns out they were on the very top of the mountain, somebody had an allergic reaction, and two people from a different facility awoled and came her. Yesterday for me it was just an awkward day.

Friday-BBQ
Friday I went to the bbq and to me it was boring. The only part I really liked about it was going to the gym to watch the kids compete against eachother. Chelsea, Kiki, and I were by the gym and we were just talking about random things that we've done. Kristen was crying and I went up to her and talked to her about what was wrong. She felt better after I talked to her. I was watching the kids jump in the jumper. When Kiki was in there she got kicked by Emily. I will neverr go in one of those it seems to dangerous. Then Mr. Major told us we had to go to lunch and if we didn't want to eat just to socialize. Other than it I went home and lingered around the house.

Blog Value
This blog actually has helped me learn how to have better technology skills. I actually enjoy writing my thoughts onto here that way everybody has a chance to read what's on my mind. It's really cool that I can go onto other people's blog and read about things that happened or are going on in thier life. I would have never thought of making a blog and sharing my ideas with people if it wasn't for Ms. Priester. Other than that I really enjoy having a blog.

Mr. Ron Major
Principal of San Pasqual Academy
17701 San Pasqual Valley Road
Escondido CA, 92025
Dear Mr. Major:
I am writing to persuade you to consider changing student-teacher here at San Pasqual Academy. Since you are the principal, you have the power make a difference. I hope that you are willing to take my concern into consideration. I personally could use more one on one time with a teacher that could help me understand.
I would like to see this change occur because there are a lot of students that either have an F or low G.P.A. These students, if they got time with a teacher their grade or grade point average would rise significantly. 7th period isn’t good enough to say that there is a great amount of communication because there is not. There are at least 20 students in there Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Ms. Priester doesn’t really have time just to focus and give the student’s the time they need to understand their work. Each classroom should have more teacher assistants who are learned in the subject(s). Most T.A’s just grades papers and take attendance. Ms. Raquel for example is a great and helpful T.A and we need more like her. She helps the student read over their papers and helps them with work they missed or did not understand.
Thank you in advance for taking time out of your day to read this letter. I hope you can understand where I am coming from. I look forward to getting the results back from you in person or letter. I really appreciate your time and taking this request into consideration.
Sincerely,
Heather W.

Letter To Daughter
Dear Daughter,
I made it so that you could only use the computer for a hour and a half everyday and I will be checking up on you from time to time. I feel that their are people that you should not be talking to online like cyber predators. Every site that you will go to you will write down what site you went to and for how long.I f I do find out that you are talking to people you do not know you will be on restriction for 2 days. This should teach you not to talk to predators online. Also, don't give out your address, phone number and don't submit or post any sexual pictures of yourself.
I am making sure that you do not get hurt form unknown people. Most predators want to provoke you to a sexual conversation that may make you feel uncomfortable. I want you to recognize that once you start talking to strangers it's going to be hard to get yourself out of that situation. If anyone calls the house that I think you may have met online, I am going to ask that person he or she questions. When they tell me that you have been talking to them online for a while, you and I will sit down and have a long talk.
You are only 15 years old and I hope that you will listen to me and make good decisions while online.I don't expect you to approve of this letter but I really care about your safety. If I catch you talking to cyber predators and either of the consequences worked; I will take the internet cord. This will prove to me that you obviously don't worry about your safety. Just try to be careful and remember I will be watching you from time to time while using the computer.

Yesterday after school I went home and talked to Barbara my house social worker. I was suppose to go to court today but I wasn't up to go. Every time I go, the judge says the same thing and by now its annoying. So Chelsea and I went outside but there was no where to go. We were going to go out front but I'm on supervised. I saw Chau and she was roaming out front and I asked her to supervise me. She said yea so we sat in the grass in front of the Girl's rec and just talked. It going boring after a while so we decided to go home. When I got home I went into my room and started my homework. Then at 7:30 I went out with Chelsea. I went home because there was nothing to do outside. I went into my room, finished my homework, took a shower and went to bed.
