Chronology
Chronology is like a time line. Its tells what happen first and what happen next. For example if a baby is born and the mother desides to make a time line saying the baby was born in 1994, her first steps were in 1995, she started kindergarden in 1998. Then she graduated elementry school in 2005 and on and on. This is a great example of chronology.

People change
People change......
1. People change becuase of many different situtions they go throught.
2. People change their emotional feeling based on the past.
3. People also change physiclly.
There's many reasons why people change. In my opinion would be if they change for a good side then I'm okay with it but if that person changes for a bad side then I would be okay with it too becuase there's nothing you can.

What are you goals for this year?
My goals for this year are many. I have 7 classes and I have a goal for each class. There's so many things I can achive if only I work hard. This year is gonna be different from all the years before, meaning that I will work so hard to pass all my classes.This year I hope I achive my big goal and my big goal is to get out of ESL.
Its embarrising I been in ESL since I was in 1st grade. Its embarrising that I was born in NY and I'm in ESL. Its embarrising that some people that came from their country last 3 years and they already passed ESL, meanwhile I was born hear and I had never been out of ESL. It hurts me that I'm an ESL student while I could've had music or art for the first time in my life.
The day I pass ESL, will be the most beautiful day in my life.... but to pass ESL I have to work hard. I hope I work as hard as I can to achive my goal. I been reading books over the summer and I hope I keep reading. I think reading will help me alot . That's one of the things I'll do to pass ESL. This is my goal for this year.
