Rejection

          A person can feel rejected in pretty much any situation. People react in vastly different ways to everything. When some people are rejected they get upset and distraught. Others would get angry and hostile at the person rejecting them. And I mean rejected when possibly a group of friends are planning to hang out and someone gets excluded. They'd feel rejected. As  I normally say, it depends on the personality of the individual and the situation. Personally though, I do not handle rejection well and I will emotionally shut myself totally off until I am ready to deal with it on my own time.

Supernatural

I think out of the three elements that supernatural is the most effective because it just takes everything to a whole new level. In Frankenstein, the monster runs with supernatural speed and scales a mountain with incredible strength. It puts into perspective just how big this monster is and what it is capable of. It definitely adds another layer of mystery to the story and a sense of "What's going to happen?"

My Own Ghost Story?

Mary Shelley began her horror story with a series of letters from an explorer who found a strange man in the arctic which then leads into the story of who this stranger is. The whole novel is this story of the stranger so they letters introduce where the story is coming from. I personally could never write a ghost story. I do not have the creativity to invent something new story-wise that has not been done before. I am more of a problem solver than a creator. All of the stories I read I always think, "There is no way I would have ever thought of that." If I had to write one though, I would probably lead into it like Mary did or I would jump right into it to start with action. It totally would depend on what I was writing about though.

Superhero Sarah Saving Citizens!.... Maybe!

If  I were a superhero I would not let anybody know about it. People would always want to use me for my powers or be my friend because of it. Also, people would try to kill me like they did to Iron Man. Tony Stark let everyone know that he was Iron Man and people were gunning after him. When someone has power, all of a sudden, everybody else desires it and will do anything to rid that person of the power, take their power, or get more than them. And some people will do literally anything to get it, including killing someone (as in Iron Man). Or even in Spider-Man, he kept his identity a secret and people were still actively trying to murder him fairly often. I would anonymously do my best to save people but also stay out of the lime light as best as I could.

Where am I?

If I had the choice to be invisible or fly, I would choose invisibility instantly. If I were able to turn invisible I could leave any situation at any moment. No more awkward situations for me! I could become a spy and no one would know how I get around and I would be world famous for my crazy disappearing antics (like the Invisible Woman, Susan Storm from Fantastic Four) It would be almost like I was just teleporting around (just not instantly). I could get on a plane and fly anywhere I wanted to go, cost free. It is not like anyone would notice me. I would be a perfect thief (totally not that I would ever steal...) There are so many possibilities with invisibility, it would be better than lame-old flying.

Breaking a Serious Promise

I avoid making serious promises because it never ends well. If I make a promise, then cannot keep it, I feel horrible. So I just do not make the promises to people. I either do something or I do not, I am really a last second kind of person - doing as I go. Therefore I can never really guarentee something. I remember years ago I made a lot of promises and it just ended up creating a lot of stress for me and everyone else. The only thing I ever really promise anymore is doing chores for my dad, and that never ends well because I am either busy, at work, or forget so it usually just ends with him mad and me in trouble.

These Are Desperate Measures Now

     When I was first getting my drivers license, it took me three tries to get it, I thought I never would after the first try. I needed my license because I live far from the college and from Lorain/Elyria high. I live with my dad and he does drywalling so his work schedule is erratic and having to drive me to school in the morning was making him late to his jobs. The first time I took my test I passed driving portion, but panicked on maneuverability and failed when I knocked over a cone. In between the first and second try, my dad backed my car into a fire hydrant and ripped off the back right taillight, so my car was unusable for a test. My cousin, Jorden, then let me use her car for it, but apparently to drive in a parking lot for maneuverability a horn is needed, and hers did not work at the time. At the point I figured I would never get my license, everything was against me. But she did fix her horn for me and when I went back a third time, I stayed calm and passed my test.

Trust Me

    Something I have had to convince my dad of is my freedom to drive. At first when I got my license, he would barely let me go anywhere other than school. It took time and a lot of convincing (by driving responsibly with him) to let him trust me when driving. I have been driving for about 10 months, and I have had my license for 4. The first time I drove, I nearly wrecked. Now I can easily drive anywhere as long as I know where I am going. An example of this is in July there is a large outdoor concert in Cuyahoga in the Blossom Center. When I first got my license, my dad told me there was no way I was allowed to drive there until I have been driving for a year or more, now I am positive he would let me go, and that he fully trusts me to be safe when driving.

All My Fault

For me, my struggling is all my fault. I have no one to place my blame upon except for myself. I am an extreme procrastinator, I sometimes forget about homework assignments, and when I get overwhelmed I usually just give up. I procrastinate to the point where I will do my homework the morning before (meaning between midnight and seven a.m.) resulting in little to no sleep. Or when I have homework I do not understand or too much, I just get frustrated and quit. I have a lot to work on and I know that, I just do not know how to go about it.

OGT Woes

Ohio Graduation Tests for me, well I am not stressing over them too much. I am fairly confident I will pass all of them. With an A? Probably not, but passing never the less. Math has always been my best subject so no worries there. English I am also not too worried about. My biggest struggle will probably be either science or social studies. Physical science not as much as biology. Physical science I learned is a lot of common sense and simple ideas but it can have really complicated formulas and reasoning sometimes. Biology I have never gotten too well. I understand it, but there are so many different parts to it and complicated subjects in biology it is hard to remember them all. Social studies might be difficult because there are so many people, dates, and places to know. There are also wars to know, laws to remember and which amendment they are or what court case enacted that particular law. But I will study what I am not so sure about and pass with flying colors. I know a lot of people are extremely stressed over the OGT's, but I know that if I worry to much over it, I will eventually just think about all of the things I do not know and that I might fail and I will give up even trying. So I am going to study what I can and try my best, that is all I can really do, right?
