Orange High School, by Jazmine

High school is a learning experience, from ninth to twelfth grade the changes that have been made have been so dramatic.

During your high school year's, I think everyone finds who they are or what they want to become.

Classes change, friends change, and the surroundings change.

You learn and grow to be more responsible and independent.

But, high school also can be a way to collect bad habits, such as drama, backstabbing, and also making the wrong friends. High school has been a huge stage of development for me, changes that I have seen take place within myself have made me proud. No matter how much I say, "I'm ready to leave this place," it's this place that has taught me life lessons to grow and to become succesful.

Sick, by Jazmine

Sick:

Sick of the drama

Sick of the rules

Sick of being told what I can and cannot do

Sick of doubting myself

Sick of being doubted

Sick of being told that I'm nothing like the rest

Sick of being sick

tick tick tick

I am who I am and that's it!

Roll-a-coaster, by Jazmine

Roll-a-coaster:

Life has been a roll-a-coaster and I'm sure that the ride isn't over.

From people dropping in and out of my life and people who said I could depend on them, never being dependable.

Trust comes hard, Ive been lied to, disappointed, and let down so many times, that its hard to trust anyone.

So I feel that I have to be self-reliant, love, depend, and be honest to myself, because if I don't, no one else will.
