Clover Park--Pevertinism
I wrote this for right after I found out about all the stuff that's been going at CP. Ya know, but anyways I was gonna use it as an editorial for the school paper, but I think it's too personal, they won't like it. Whatever!
We are 15 years old. We are 18 years old. We are almost adults. We make mistakes. Understand?
I wish people would. I wish people would get it through the thick skulls, that eight people do not account for an entire school population of 1500, that eight people is only .0053% of our school population.
Yet because of this .0053%, our school has earned one of the worst reputations in the area. We are the "rape" school. Bethel is known for their football, we are known for our rapes. That’s always a comforting thought.
It makes me so upset that people don’t understand what’s going on inside of the students’ heads. Well, at least my head…I don’t feel unsafe here. Of course, I could be the only one. I don’t think so though.
The administrators want to know what the students think would help. Wanna know what I think? I don’t think anything will help. I don’t think they understand we are teenagers, and things are bound to happen. Nothing will ever go the way everything should, it’s kinda of like Murphy’s Law.
So I guess what I’m really getting at is what I said at the beginning; We are 15. We are 18. We are almost adults. We make mistakes. Please try and understand these facts, because they will open up doors in your mind. If you understand these facts, you might actually be able to see things from the students perspective, from my perspective.

Drive By-Shootings
Okay Chris and I were just chillin in my neighborhood, he was skating and stuff. So he skates almost all the way to the street. Then he stops...looks left then right. All of a sudden he screams something I could not understand, then runs across the street and hides behind some people's trees in their yard. Like 2 minutes later he comes out really "sneaky" like and runs back across the street really fast. "False alarm" he said! I asked him what he was doing, and he said he was practing for a drive by shooting. Boys these days...nothing that exciting would EVER happen in our neighborhood. I was laughing so hard..I was like let me get this straight...you thought there was going to be a drive by shooting. And he said yes..I started rolling, he could not believe I thought it was so funny. I guess I thought it was so funny because he was so dead serious about their being a drive-by shooting. Lol..this will be one of those things that I will think about 3 days from now and just crack up!
