Poem's of Walt Whitmen

My favorite poem from Walt Whitman himself is "To A Stranger". I see this poem as my favorite because of how he describes a real situation that could we think about when we walk pass a beautiful girl. In his case he had spoken up to this stranger and had the best time in his life. It just goes to show you never know what your future may hold if you speak up.

Yea, it's Grrrrrreat knowing that years of hard work is now on the line. I can't say much but what I can say is that it has been a long day today with all my emotions.

"When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success." I do agree with this quote. As a cross country runner I've never seen a great runner just being lucky. They work extremely hard, breaking a sweat every time they put on their runner shoes. We as people seem to achieve on the things we love by working at them. Its amazing on how talented we are. Just imagine if we loved everything.

Sophomore Year

The start off of my sophomore year has been kinda predictable. Things just really haven't changed. You have your same popular kids, the jocks, the nerds, the drinkers and smokers. Its ironic on how much we all hate school but in the summer its the most anticipated upcoming event. I guess that just helps prove that when were told something we do the opposite and how we say something we rarely act upon it. Why is that? On the other hand, my goals are pretty much the same thing as last year straight A's and trying to get as many as scholarships as possible, because when all the goals are added up and completed i'll be a successful scholar living high up somewhere in the middle of nowhere.
