Hello, World!

When I was reading the posts from past 7th graders, I found that the top three things didn't surprise me at all. First, DON'T PROCRASTINATE!!! Yeah, I found a couple that actually looked like that. This year I probably will procrastinate if I don't think about it, but I will try hard to get work in before the day things are due. Most of the 7th graders were serious about not procrastinating, things like:
"Procrastinating in Mrs. Robins' class will ruin your life forever!!" or something like that, so I will
always keep track of what I am working on throughout this school year. Another popular theme I found was to always read.  Most of the time I am an avid reader already, so I will have hardly any trouble with this. Learning that so many people are telling me to always read has made me think: "I'll read way more this year! (I probably will read way more than usual because of the I Read program)" Last, Have lots of fun! All of the 7th graders from last year say just to "have fun and ease up a little, because this class is amazing!" or whatever they said. This class sounds amazing already, so I'm excited!

My story as a writer started mainly in 2nd grade, because that was when we really started to write, and not just 3 to 4 word sentences: I have a dog. its name is woof. My 2nd grade teacher encouraged me to write a story in a little notebook when I was done with my math sheets. I didn't think writing was amazing until 4th grade when my best friend started writing a book series, and I wanted to write a book too, so I started to write a book called Storm of the North, which I still have bookmarked so that occasionally I could write it during advisory or something like that. I love to read, and I like to make up fantasy stories about heroines who use their powers for the good of all people and most of the time, they sound like a more normal version of myself. I am not half as good as my friend (which she does not admit to), but I love to read and write fiction books.

  2. I loved your opening! It was definalty creative, and a fun way to start your essay! One thing i'd watch out for is repeating the same word a couple of times. Overall, I really enjoyed reading your essay!

  5. "Storm of the North" is an exciting title!
    I think I could read that one for a while.
    Can't wait to see how you grow this year,
    Don't procrastinate, do your best: have no fear!
