Free Write Community Service

In community Service we went on two trips for two different walks the Autism And AIDS walk.

I enjoyed myself on the Autism walk. I didn’t know that a bunch of people had it in New York City. I also didn’t know that it is very expensive to take care of a person that has Autism. Two of my family members have Autism and I know it takes a lot of work to take care of them on a daily bases. They have to be checked on a regular bases. You have to shower them, clothe them, feed them, etc. I have never been on a Autism walk before but my father and I have donated money to the cause at a nursing home. I liked how they let people sing songs on a stage there at the Autism walk. It was good to see the amount of people at the Autism walk supporting people with Autism.

I also enjoyed myself on the AIDS walk. I walked in the AIDS walk before with my uncle and a couple of his friends. I enjoyed walking with my friends for a good cause. I wished we could of walked till the end. It was also good seeing groups of people wearing the same thing and united as one for a good cause. I like the shirts that the YMCA gave us to wear for the AIDS walk. I also liked seeing the cheerleaders do there cheers at the AIDS walk. Also the people that were at different checkpoints were funny and bring up the hype so people wouldn't realize how long the walk was.  If I had a chance to go to one of the walks again I would.

Passion Class of 2k15

I am very passionate about graduating from Thurgood Marshall Academy for Learning and Social Change (TMA). I been in TMA for 6 and 1/2  years. It was a good time here and had a lot of  unforgettable moments. In middle school it was a growing stage for us from becoming immature to mature. In middle school we played around a lot and got our work done, In high school we had less time to have fun and more time to be in the books. But I realized as you grow and you advance to the next grade the work gets harder but they overall prepare you to be more responsible in different ways. I appreciate all the teachers that gave us that extra push that we needed to better ourselves to become better people. For teaching us the right and not the wrong way of doing stuff. I am happy to further my education and go to Onondaga Community College. I hope their they give me a great experience like the one I got at TMA. People say college is where a person finds there self and how they will end up in the futher. College should give me a chance to see how I can live by myself without my parents. I hope that I will do well and pass all my classes with high grades. After that I hope I can transfer to a 4 year college and even further my education to become a better person and gain more knowledge.

Passion

I show a lot of passion in the sports teams that I like. I have two main sports that I like. I like basketball and football. For football I only have two favorite teams. I like the Green Bay Packers in thee NFL, and I like the LSU in College Football. Since its football they don't play a lot of games so whenever they are on T.V I try to make time to watch there games. If my teams win or lose I'm still riding with them all the way. In basketball I like the Chicago Bulls, Sacramento Kings, and Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA. I also like the Duke Blue Devils in College Basketball. In basketball they always play more games then in football. So I try to watch them when they are playing other good teams in the league. Or when they play the Knicks or Nets because there games always come on T.V. I also watch them when their in the playoffs and when they are in the NCAA Tournament. I always rep my teams all the time. When people talk bad about them I defend them. I will never turn my back on my teams.
