Cellphone Policy

Yes, I think cellphone should basically be banned in the school. But, in some special uses should not be banned, for examples, taking pictures, listening to music, recording messages( sound and video). Sending texts and talking on cellphone during class should definitely being banned, unless, is an emergency that you must to call your parents to come to school, such as being sick, forgetting to bring essential documents( passwords, and ID cards.) I think one way to avoid cellphones were abused in school is to confiscate the cellphones once the teachers find out students are using in a improper way.

Writing A Story Improvision

I wrote a very story in the last 20 minutes remaining of our Language Arts class today. The story was about putting your perspective of a eighth grader presenting his/her work during our all school gathering.

"Sigh, I felt so dead and sleepy on that day, very tired. And, we had a huge presentation which had to be presented in front of all students and faculties. I'm a person who easily to get nervous. As I was sitting next to the projector, waiting for my turn, my legs started to shake, and all of my veins started to swell. My heart pumped faster than faster as the second passed by. My stomach started feeling down; want to go to bathroom. My armpits started to sweat like a water faucet is unable to turn off.

My classmates had gone, it was my turn. I felt like a judge has adjudicated death penalty to me; and I'm walking on the way to guillotine. I stood there, dozen of the kids were starring at me. I really did not know what to do. I took a deep breathe, and said "Good Morning Everyone..." , Jeeeeez, I could feel my crotch was sweating; it was really hot, even though the thermometer on the air condition show 26 degree. I still felt like having a heatstroke. I think I really had to go to bathroom, but I do not think I really need to, it must be my mind effect. I took a deep breathe again. I started off my presentation. Suddenly, I did not feel nervous anymore. I did not even try to count the students and teachers down there; I treated them as only one or two people were sitting there.

Finally, my presentation was over. I felt like I could finally drop the big rock inside my heart, like the ankle chains had been unlocked by the polices. I started to think, why would I feel that nervous? Did people think I was a joke?.. I did not know. But, I was sure I do not need to do it anymore!"

As I was writing this story, I was thinking I must to clearly describe the nervousness occur in them. I put my self in their shoes. I tried to think of some moments when I was very nervous like almost urinate in my pants, such as facing the exam or big people, playing basketball or baseball as in competitions, and performing drama or music in public. But, I know how it feels after you pass through the all nervous, like dropping a big rock from your heart.

Do's and Don'ts

I read about a paragraph about how to write a fiction techniques now. I've learnt that tell more about summary than a scene, because it is condensed and given readers more highlighted ideas. It becomes easier to let the ideas to get across. And also, it will look more organized. I think after I read these precious tips about writing a fiction. I think I can write a general simple fiction with the tips I've just learnt. I was in Creative Writing class when I was in sophomore. I wrote two fictional stories, but I didn't really use these techniques, therefore, I think I would improve so much after this project.
