The People That Have "Packed my Parachute!"

There are many people that influence me everyday and most of the time I don't think to thank them enough. People that have "packed my parachute" are the ones that I couldn't bear to live without. They are the one's that pick me up when I fall and know when I need their care.
The number one person would have to be my mom. She supports me in everything in I do. She is a huge part of my life. She is the only person that I can have a real girl talk with. She is the first person I know I can lean on.
The second person would have to be my boyfriend. We have been through the thick and the thin together. He's my backbone, meaning he helps me to stay in line and with confidence. He talks to me, listens when I talk, and tries to understand my feelings. He shows me a kind of love that no one else does. He's the majority of my life.
My dad comes third. He and my mom divorced when I was only nine years old so he hadn't been in my life too much until I got to high school. Still he's been a great part of my life.
Fourth would have to be my grandma, even though she passed away when I was four years old. The way everyone talks about her helps me to stay focused.
Fifth is my grandpa. He was the heart of our family.
Sixth is my aunt Mary Jane. She is the most caring person that I have ever met.
I dedicate this blog to my number one person, my mom. I'm blessed that she's in my life.

My Expectations of Being a Senior


Wow...this topic is kinda difficult because I have so many expectations this year. I hope to complete my year with straight A's and a awesome grade point average. I would like to get closer to my peers and remain close after graduation. I expect to be at least top 10% in my class and to get an acceptance letter from the college I want to go to. I want to have all of my college stuff completed at least a month before I graduate instead of procrastinating. I hope I succeed in all of these areas.
