Week 10 – Overlook On My Work – Jordan

2016…. What a year! I feel like the year just started and it’s already close to ending! What? This was a fun year for me and one of the best so far in my opinion! It was gone by so fast that I can’t believe another 12 months has gone by! As we all know 2016 is coming to an end but a new year is to begin soon!  Let’s all try to make 2017 a good year! Though, I wanna recap on this years blogging for me! Let’s begin this rant that a lot of people won’t care to read but I still have the urge to write it!

So far this year I think my blog has gone good! I’m proud of my work and I’m happy how it looks! Speaking of my work that I have done on my blog, I feel like talking about! I wrote 5 posts this year, although it isn’t a lot, my work speaks for itself! If you count this post I did 6, so you can’t hate on the 5! My first post was my “Time To Comment” which I’m proud of but I know I have better work. It is well organized for me at least because I’m totally un-organized, but it’s layout is nice in my opinion.  My second post was “Week 3 – Poem” which, I think is my best work on the whole blog this year, I was and still am really proud of it! It’s a poem that I came up with in class. ( No duh it’s a poem Jordan, it’s in the name!) Hey! This is my writing don’t judge me other Jordan! Okay, so back to talking about my blogs! My third post, “Week 5 – Falling” which is another poem, and this time you couldn’t tell if it was a poem unless you read it or I told you! (Pfft I could tell that was a poem!) Oh yeah, how? (….) EXACTLY! Well, Falling is a poem about skydiving, it doesn’t end pretty though. I’m also proud of this poem, I guess I’m just proud of everything I need to stop saying proud! I said proud 3 times in that sentence, wait, I said it again in this sentence! Okay, okay, I need to get back to what I was talking about. My 4th post was  “Week 7 – Let’s Talk School” which is about what I think as my day goes on.. I think it’s funny, and it’s true. I was happy with how that turned out. My 5th post is “Week 9 – Gaming Community” which it is kinda obvious, I talk about the gaming community…. I didn’t really know where I was going with this one but I think I made it work. Then my last post of this year, this one! Which talk about- well, you should know….

I currently have 14 comments overall from all my posts which I’m overly excited about! I’m grateful that other took time out of their day just to say something positive about something I wrote! My “Hello World!” post got the most comments because the “About Me” was a page so you couldn’t comment on it, so everyone who wanted to comment had to go to my only post on my blog page at the time. If we’re staying on the topic of posts right now, I want to tell you my favorite one. I loved and had the most joy writing my “Week 3 – Poem” in my opinion it is my best work. It was based off of a book I read, the character who is bad was based off of the book, that’s really the only part tho. Otherwise it was an inspiration to me. The book was Bad Girls Done Die by Katie Alender. One of the best books I’ve read!

That’s really all I can come up with to talk about! My blog is all about my posts and my one page but mostly my posts. I enjoyed writing about this, just writing about my success- (You call this success? PPFFFTTT Who are you to judge your own blog?!) EH?!! Why’d you come back I was writing my conclusion! Also, I have the right to judge my own blog because I MADE IT! It’s my opinion and people may have a different opinion which is fine but if anything I have the most rights to judge my blog! So let me do my conclusion!! . . . I think she’s gone…  Okay, so thank you for taking time out of your day to read my silly stuff and I hope you enjoyed!

The other Jordan was never heard of again…. *Which was the “person” in the parentheses ( )*

Week 9 – Gaming Community – Jordan

Addiction – POD – via Compfight

Community Of Gaming

The gaming community is HUGE, from the people who make video games to the people who play them! I play Minecraft the most, and I know to some of you that’s probably lame. Some people reading this might play Minecraft and might be a fan of the game like myself. I love to build, play mini games, survive, and most of all make friends! Although it’s fun to play around and make friends, it’s not always safe. There are people out there that aren’t looking for friends but more like they’re looking for people to mess with. You never want to share personal information with anyone online that you just met, or even if you’ve known them for a while it’s not always safe. I know I sound like one of your teachers or parents right now but it’s true. It’s a bad thing about the community because not everyone in it is here to have a good time. It’s also amazing though because you can have friends online that you can have fun with. I actually have a few best friends online that I talk to every now and then. Though I never gave out personal information to them, I keep them at arm’s length. I also play Call Of Duty – Black Ops though I mostly play on zombies or bots , I also play  am Bread, Spore, Minecraft Story Mode, and The Sims 4 if it counts as a video game in your mind, and more that I don’t have the time to name off.

Joining the community isn’t hard at all, I just kinda became one with the video games. I started playing video games in 3rd grade and got Minecraft in 4th. After I started playing for a while I made some friends and started to just talk with everyone and be open to others about the game and talking about other things. I love being a part of video games, and the games that I play today has granted me the most happiness I’ve experienced in my life so far. I find pure joy being a part of the gaming community and I hope you enjoyed my small rant about it!

Week 7 – Let’s Talk School – Jordan

This week the challenge is to write about school, really anything under the topic. I thought it would be cool to show off my routine for school days, not only that but I’m going to try to show you my thoughts as the day goes on. I’m not the best at explaining but If you continue reading I hope you understand what I’m doing as you read on.

A Normal Day In The Life Of Jordan

5:45am

Wha- Alarm…. Ugh. Do I really have to get up? Now..? Cant I fall back asleep? I’ll close my eyes for like 15 minutes and then get up at six…

6:10am

Where’d I put my phone? Oh there it is and- oh, I slept in ten minutes more than I wanted to… That’s ten minutes I don’t have to watch Youtube… Dang! I’m hungry… Hhhmmmfff I don’t want to get up though, but I’m so hungry!

7:00am

Do I have everything? I still need to get my cheese-its and my water bottle.. After that I’ll have at least 15 more minutes to watch Youtube..

7:20am

I shouldn’t have watched Youtube I don’t even have my coat on! I really don’t want to miss the bus…..

7:25am

Hmff… Gosh my nose is cold, and so are my legs and everything else connected to my body.. I’m fine with taking the bus but I hate walking to the bus stop.. I’m SO COLD!

7:38am

The bus is so warm… This is the perfect time to read before class..

8:15am

Math… Why? Couldn’t we just live without numbers..? Wait then how would life work? Maybe you would have to say something secret thing to get something..? Ok, never mind we kinda need numbers in life but still they teach us stuff that I personally will never use.. Oh no, what page number..?

9:45am

Mountains.. Essay… Worksheets… Page numbers… Science, what does science mean? What do you do with sc- Wait what did the teacher say…? Oh no, I’m gonna ask someone… And, I got in trouble for talking. It’s only morning can this class just end…?

10:20am

I wonder what we’re doing today.. I don’t want it to include running though. I don’t feel like running today, even though I never feel like running any day… P.E isn’t what I want it to be. I think P.E should include naps… Did someone say my name..? What’d I do? Oh it was just role call…. Good I thought I was in trouble already..

11:07am

I’m so happy! This is one of my favorite classes! I would skip down this hall if there wasn’t a teacher. I really hope there isn’t a substitute. But what if there is? Oh no.. Hmm well I- SHE’S HERE HALLELUJAH!! I love being a T.A! That means teacher aid right…? I think so, I’ll ask the teacher..

12:00pm

LUNCH!! This is why I woke up today… This is how I get through the day. OH! I SEE MY FRIENDS. 

12:55pm

BUT- BUT- BUT! I WAS ENJOYING MYSELF SO MUCH…. Why’d you have to shoo everyone out of the lunch room?! I don’t want to go to Advisory.. I love the teacher but I might love food just a little bit more… Food will always be my first love…. I need to get to class now..

1:14pm

Social Studies… Which means more history! I really have to sit here for like 50 minutes and learn about history? All of the people we learn about are dead anyways.. Why should I care? I need a good grade so…. WOW I’m good at getting distracted..

2:20pm

My favorite part of the day, aside from lunch. Blogging in a class that one of my favorite teachers are in charge of! It’s alsothe last class of the day. I wonder what we’re doing today. I’ll try not to get distracted. But I wonder why I wonder about things, I feel like I wonder about things to much. Oh right, blogging! I can do this!

3:15

Waiting… Waiting… Oh my gosh, when is the bus going to get here? I want to go watch some more youtube! School is taking away time from my youtube time! This is not fair, life is not fair-! YAY! My bus route was called! YOUTUBE HERE I COME!

 

Anyways that’s something that I would go through in a day, this is my thought process as the day goes on as well and explaining the my schedule. The time periods for the most part are not when the class starts, it’s random times that are in-between my classes. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed what you read!

 

Week 5 – Falling – Jordan

Sunday SkyCreative Commons License Bennilover via Compfight

We stand at the edge

With a long way down to the ground

The plane is steady and smooth

Though

I’m nowhere near steady

He can see that my fear is taking over

Everything’s fine, you’ll be alright

He told me

 

He jumped without me

Alone at the edge

I decided to jump as well

I watch as his parachute expanded

He raised a bit by the push of air

But kept falling gracefully afterwards

 

I pulled the string to expand my parachute

Nothing happened

I begin to panic

I pulled harder

In my panic state

I pulled the string to hard

It snapped in half

 

I knew there was no use in struggling

But at the time

I still did

I struggled

And Panicked

 

He landed before me

He was fine

But I wasn’t far

The only thing I could think of at that moment

Was his last words to me

Everythings Fine, you’ll be alright

Nothing was alright though

Because

I never got to tell him

That I loved him

 

Everything went black

Week 3 – Poem – Jordan

The Azure Window at Gozo, Malta Flavio~ via Compfight

 

 

I sit next to a girl

On the edge of a cliff

We sit in stillness

It’s quiet

Our shoulders are touching

I look at her

She’s staring at the water below us

 

I move a bit

Her head jerks to the side

It startled me

She stared at me

More like

She stared at my position that I was sitting in

Her eyes looked weary and blank

 

Next thing I know

I’m in mid air

I’m falling

As I’m falling

I realize something

She’s looking down at me

With a smile

She pushed me

 

Why though

Why did she push me

Looking at the cloudless sky

Everything went black

I love how you talked to the audience and showed how passionate you are about your hobby! I hope you can keep swimming with that passion and make something out of it in later years. Maybe you just find joy, or maybe you want to make a living off of it. Anything you do with your life I bet there are people around you to support you. Your about me page was just all and all amazing and I hope you continue you write!

Hey! I read your about me page and I can’t believe you can do cross country! That´s something I could never do! I am not athletic at all! I like how you reached out and made it seem like you were talking to the audience.

I like how you reached out to the audience, and made it seem like you were talking to someone. You seem like an extremely well writer and you like to add details and humor, At least I could think that you would write with that by the way you wrote this. I just love your writing and I find joy reading it! If you had time it would be nice of you to check out my blog 🙂 https://jordan07pm.edublogs.org/
