Ten things I am thankful for Sara Elliott
Thanksgiving is a good time to remember what you are thankful for. This assignment would be good to get everyone in the spirit for this holiday. So here it goes ten things I’m thankful for :
1. My family- My family is always there for me. I couldn’t live with out them and would never want to know how it would feel to not have a family. Also, they are my biggest support system.
2. Bekah Hagewood and Mary Fredendall- These two girls are my best friends. I love them to death and they are like family to me. They showed me what its like to always have someone there to listen to you and make you smile.
3. Swimming and my Team- over the years the girls you meet on your team become family and your other support system. My coaches are some of my favorite people because they care about everyone on the team and just want the best for you.
4. My House- I am very thankful to have a nice house. These days many Americans are homeless and living on the streets.
5. Friends- I love all of my friends. They are amazing people who all have something about them. These people can make me laugh when I’m mad and make me smile when I’m sad.
6. School- Well I’m not the biggest fan of waking up early to go learn. I should have a better attitude for the school system. They provide us a good education and many possibilities for our bright futures.
7. My grandpa- my grandpa was one of the funniest people I knew. He could make me laugh on a bad day or a good day. He didn’t leave me with one bad memory of him. I would do anything to have him back but I am thankful I got to have him for so long. I will always miss him, but he is better off in where he is now.
8. COSMO the dog- Cosmo is the best dog ever. I think he has a mind of his own. He is a big brown ball of fur that makes funny faces when you do silly and stupid thing and loves sticks. When I forget to feed him he has a way of telling me. I’m happy my parents let us get Cosmo.
9. My sister’s recovery- Early in her year and years she got into some trouble. I am proud and thankful she managed to get help and catch her self. I love my sister and am very thankful for her recovering, keep it up Rach.
10. Life- I am just thankful for living. One day at a time, living life to its fullest. Do the things you love, and make your life worth living. Having fun makes my life complete.

freshman year 09'
My high school Global Ed. Blog
Old friends, new friends
When I walked into school this year I immediately reconnected with some old friends in my classes like Kassidy, Audrey, Morgan, and Paige who I have five classes with. So far I have also made new friends. It didn’t happen right away but some new friends of mine are Katy, Taylor, Erin, Melinda, and Brittany.
SHS activities attended
I haven’t really gotten a chance to go to a lot of the varsity games because of swimming but I had a lot of fun at the one I went to. Night on the field was amazing Katy, Erin, Kyla, Allie, Catie, Josie and I did karaoke together. If have been to all of the swim meets but that is because I’m a swimmer for Stevenson.
Funniest, weirdest, scariest moments
Well I would have to say walking in between two people making out in the hall way was the weirdest thing that’s happened to me since I’ve been here.
Hardest, easiest class and assignments
I would say my hardest class is geometry because we have homework every day but it is easy. Global Ed history is my favorite because of Mrs. Bergeski.
Top five current events
Hilary Clinton made huge budget cuts for schools, Herta Muller won the noble literature prize, president Obama won the Noble peace prize, a tsunami in Samoa caused an earthquake and over 300 people died, and a kid got into a balloon off his roof called balloon boy.
Faces in the news
Some faces seen a lot in the news are Hilary Clinton, Sonia sotto mayor the new Supreme Court justice, Hamid Karzi the president of Afghanistan, also Susan rice and Ban Ki Moon.
Interesting new words
Well some interesting new words I’ve come across this year are loquacious and akimbo I don’t know why but they just sound weird.
Popular or memorable songs
Well I can’t really think of any other songs than the ones that get stuck in my head at swim practice and those songs are one time by Justin Beiber, whatcha say by Jason Derullo and party in the USA by Miley Cyrus.
Popular or memorable movies
I haven’t really seen any movies this year but I did go see Whip it and that was really good. I want to go see Where the Wild Things Are because it looks good
Rumors and gossip
Rumors and gossip are a waste of time.
Fads and trends
Some things that are really popular now are flannel shirts, skinny jeans, moccasins, UGG boots and zebra and cheetah prints
First cultural event
For my first cultural event I went to the Henry ford museum with my mom and sister. I picked creative display and made a Wenier mobile shaped book out of cardboard and I got an A.
Homecoming
I am so excited for homecoming my dress is white and black and I’m going with a big group of people. I am loving spirit week too, but this year’s homecoming shirts are a little ugly.
Advice for freshman
Well don’t walk slowly in the hall it’s really annoying and don’t walk on the opposite side of that hallway. Also the doors where you can pass from one hallway to another lock so if you’re going to be late and no one is around don’t take the doors.don't be late to global ed English.
What I’m looking forward to
I’m looking forward to getting to be able to call seniority on the freshman next year
Other noteworthy achievements or events
Joining swim team <3
