Back On!!!



This week in World Geography, we didn't learn much. This was our TAKS week. TAKS is a test given by the Texas to asses the students. In soime grades, if you don't pass the TAKS, you don't graduate. Luckilly for 9th graders like myself, we don't have to pass the class plus the TAKS is really easy. If you don't pass the TAKS though you have to take a class that helps you study for TAKS. There are five TAKS tests. A writing, science, social studies, math, and reading tests. 9th graders only took the math test this week, but we had to wait for all the other grades to finish their tests which took the wohole week almost. My teacher didn't want to overload us with a lot of information this weeks so she let us relax in her class. We did learn though about Myanmar. We are going to be talking to religious leaders next week and she wants us to know some background information on Buddhists and their monks. Other than that that's all we did this week.
I have decided to tell you a little more about myself in these next couple of blogs. Up ubntil now I have told you what I did the following week. When i grow up, i want to be a doctor. There are some people who just don't like science and ask me how i can be that? I am much different. Science interests me. Not all sciences. I can live without learning about Physics or chemistry, but biology and anatomy i couldn't live without. I planned out my future already and i know exactly what courses i am going to take next year and in college before i go to medical school. Even though the course may be long and has a lot of work, I know I can accomplish it if I try hard.
