January 27

This is my last WISE journal for the week and Im kinda excited about that. Tonight Jersey Shore has a new episode and Im very excited to watch it. This weekend Im going to start working on my WISE project to get a head start. I can't wait to see what my mentor things of the work i've been doing.

January 26

Got my Wise pass today....I'm glad because i got stopped by security. Tonight I'm probably going to a youth group with some friends so I'm looking forward to that. Right now Im watching Jersey Shore on MTV I really like how I can relax and do my Wise project at the same time. I'm really glad that I decided to do WISE.

January 25.....1st Day of Wise

Today was the first day of Wise and the only thing I can say is I feel lost. I guess it's cause I saw all the work at once and got scared. I decided to change my Wise project from healthy lifestyle to TV Critic because being a TV critic is much simpler and I'll feel that I'll enjoy it more. Im excited to begin WISE.

April 21

This is my last WISE blog of the week. I am about to have my mentor meeting and discuss the possible time for my presentation. I want to do the earliest possible presentation just so I can get it out of the way and have 1 less thing on my mind. I dont think too many people will try to grab that spot but you never know.

April 20

Overall today was a pretty good day. I was afraid that I was failing my english class but was excited to learn I had a 77%. I still need to raise it but 77 is better than an F. I also found out I had an A in WISE which I'm very excited about. Besides that I have no new updates.

April 19

Today we had our Wise meeting and our WISE presentation by Coach Love. Luckily I'm all done and I only have to do a little tweaking in order to have my project finished. I'm really glad I started early and got my project out of the way. All I have to do now is business cards.

April 14

This is the last blog of the week for me. Today I was relived to have Coach love inform me that even though my presentation is only 35 minutes long thats good enough because, people will be asking questions during my presentation which will add time to it. I want to be one of the first or even the first WISE presentations just so it will be one last thing of my mind and one last thing I have to worry about.

April 13

Today I didn't go to school yeah. I decided instead to stay home relax and do homework. Even though I am almost done with high school I'm still stressing about these final weeks. I currently have a 72 in English and no matter what i do to fix it it just stays the same so I'm scared of it falling to a D. Besides that I can't wait for college and freedom.

April 11

I was working on my WISE project over the weekend with the hope of finishing it. Unfortunately, I finished it and when I timed it it came out to be 35 minutes. I guess I need to add about another 10 minutes or so to my project.  

April 7

Today I went by coach Love room to learn he wasn't there. I didn't realize he was leaving for New York this early. I also will have my mentor meeting today so I'm looking forward to that. I'm really glad they're aren't any newsletter activities left.

April 6

I am honestly surprised that people are still asking what college I'm going to even when I wear my UCF shirt. That's like walking into Coach Love room and asking if he likes Disney. Besides that It was a good day. Currently I have 120% in my 3rd hour talk about opposite of senioritis haha. That's all the information I have for right now.

April 5

My first day of the last quarter of high school started like crap. Don't ask me how but I currently have a F in my english class for 4th quarter. Besides that today was pretty good. I need to finish up my WISE project since presentations start soon and I'd perfer to be one of the first ones and have the project done early.

March 30

This is my last Wise blog for 3rd quarter and I'm extyremely excited about it. I am about to have my mentor meeting in a couple minutes. Hopefully this weekend I will end up going to UCF for the weekrnd. I cant wait for this 4 day weekend.

March 29

Today I got most of my final grades for this quarter. With the exception of Wise grades which aren't final I have 3 B which is pretty good for Senior Year. I can't believe that my final full quarter of high school will be over this week. Thats all the updates I have for now.

March 28

My last full quarter at Cypress Bay High School is coming to an end, and the only thing I can say is thank god. High school has gone from being a school to a day acre center in the last quarter for me. Today in my 2nd hour I got assigned seats....assigned seats next thing you know there going to make us hold onto a rope  when we walk in the halls so we don't get lost. I was honestly shocked today to see how many people waited until the last minute to sign up for bright futures. It's literally free money from the state.

March 24

This is my last Wise blog for the week. Today is Thursday which means that I will continue my weekly rountine of getting Chipotle for lunch. I have w orked significantly on my Wise Midterm lately it is currently at 20 slides and counting. I'm kinda disappointed in the lack of pictures I have pertaing to my project. At the current rate I'm going I should definately have my midterm done by Monday.

March 23

Unfortunately yesterday I forgot to do my blog so I will not have 3 blogs done by time I have my mentor meeting. Last night my friend turned 18 and his gift a brand new Infiniti G37...Lucky kid. I had dinner with his family at some Irish restaurant in Town Center and the food was really good. Im actually struggling to do my midterm since I currently am lacking pictures for it. I want my midterm to be good.

March 21

I'm not really sure if we need journals this week or not but I'm writing one anyway. Last week was Spring Break and it amazing at first and then became bad. The 1st half of the week I was having fun at my future college UCF. The second half my dad had prostate surgery and spent the next 4 days making me run errands and yelling. SO overall I'd rate my break at a solid 5.

March 9

Today I applied for housing at UCF. All housing options are the same 4 people in an a apartment with 1 bathroom for everyone. Besides that I found my roommate he one of my really close friends and I'm excited for college. I also remember to do my homework at the very last second not good but at least I remember to do it.

March 8

I wrote a previous blog this morning in my english which I decided to delete because I recieved important information. Today when I came home I wanted to take a nap before I took the Nap I decided to check my application status at UCF and guess what... I GOT IN!!!!!!!!!!. I never been so happy before in my entire life 8 months ago when I applied UCF was my number 1 school and now I'm a future Knight class of 2015. I can't beleive that I'm going to my Number 1 school my future seems so much cleared all I have to do is figure out what Ill major in...One problem at a time.

March 7

I am so excited that spring break is only 1 week away. I want to take a trip to UCF during spring break but most likely my mom will flip out so I'm not counting on it. Today I went to coach love room and found out that I could make up the newsletter that I forgot to do last week. I'm probably going to start it right after this blog. Even if I don't do it I still have a 95% in the class so Im good either way.

March 2

Today is my last Wise blog of the week yeah. Tommorow I have to do my student notes, mentor report, and my team meeting that so much WISE work in a single day jk. I am really looking forward to this weekend there is nothing special going on I just like the weekend. In regards to TV I keep seeing a advertisement for a movie called Sucker punch does anyone know anything about it.

March 1

Yeah its the 1st day of March which means that its 1 month closer to June and college. Today I went to the gym and had a pretty bad workout. I honestly wanted to just go home and fall asleep. I guess thats okay cause I went to they gym twice yesterday. I still haven't gotten a letter from USF yet and I'm starting to get agitated. I think the whole college dilemma I'm in is making me stress out. Of college topic life's pretty good. So I can't really complain. Thats everything I have for now. BYE

February 28

Let me start out this blog by wishing Justin and Josh Gluck a happy 18th birthday. This week begins week 1 of the waiting process to hear from UCF. UCF is my number 1 school and if I get in I will definately go no matter what unfortunately I'm on the deferred list so I'm currently freaking out. Of the topic of college Im doing very good in all my classes. I currently have 3 B+ and 1 A so everything grade Wise in in order. I completed some research on my Wise projecting bringing my total WISE slide count to 39. Thats all the news I have for now.

February 23

Today was a day that never seemed to end. My first hour teacher gave out lots of work. My 2nd hour teacher told me I got a 0 on a project since she said to turn it in when I wasn't in the room. In 3rd hour we prepared for a test which I know I'm going to fail. Luckily I have Wise which doesn't give pop quizzes or surprise projects so I'm maintaining my sanity for another day.

I did all my homework for Wise last night so I'm prepared for tomorrow to turn it in. I also gave my mentor the report which she initialed but didn't have anyone she'd recommend WISE to. I'm going to do my student notes tomorrow morning before the mentor meeting so I need to prepare for that. Besides that nothing new has happened in my Wise project lately.

February 22

Today was a good day in school. I was absent on Friday so I turned in all my late work for full credit. Unfortunately I forgot to do a homework assignment for third period. =(

Right now I'm watching Jersey Shore on mtv and wondering how come none of these actors parents come to the house and drag them out. They are literally embarassing themselves and their families by doing the most idiotic stuff. If a camera crew was following you would you seriously talk about the worlds most perveted things? Oh well I guess its just a TV show. I

February 21

I had a great weekend. I went to Ocala,  Florida with my Jewish youth group and then to Islands of Adventure. The camp retreat was extremely fun and I hung out with friends, played football, and most importantly won 3rd place in an arm wrestling competition with 20 people in it.

Islands of Adventure was amazing experience especially the Harry Potter part. Unfortunately to get into Harry Potter you need to get a time ticket designating what time you can enter the Harry Potter section =(. The gift shops in Harry Potter World were amazing and the butter beer which cost $3.20 was delicious. Butter beer takes like a mix of Coca Cola, butter, and Iced tea, which may sound gross but it's amazing. Just in cause you were wondering there's no alcohol in it don't worry Coach Love I'm a good little doobie.

February 17

This is my last Wise blog for this week. Im really excited because I am going to Orlando this weekend again. This time however I'm going to Disney World. I recently resent my transcripts to UCF so I'm currnetly sitting around praying for the best. Today I have my Wise team meeting which interfers with my tradition of chipotle every Thursday oh well.

Fun Fact Kermit the Frog is Left-Handed

february 16

Today was an average day for me. Everything was typical so I'm kinda confused on what to write about. I love my new Iphone it's so much better than my old phone and it has many cool apps. I'm kinda excited because I'm going to Universal this weekend so I'm rushing to get all my work out of the way. Thats all I have for now bye.

February 15

Today was a great day. 1st I had no problems with school which is always good. 2nd my transcripts were resent to UCF without and problems. 3rd I got my Verizon Iphone yay. I've been waiting over four years to have a Iphone and now I finally have it.

On my Wise Project there has been no new changes or developments. Unfortunately going on a college visit this weekend limited my access to a computer. Oh well.

February 9

Today is my Dad birthday he turned 59 years old today. I also ordered my Verizon I-phone and cant wait to get it. Im going to go to a youth group event later tonight.

Last night I did my Wise weekly homework. I found an article about how much money TV stations spend and get in order to broadcast the Superbowl. I can't believe that FOX payed 720 million to the NFL for the rights to broadcast the superbowl. Thats all I have for my Wise Project today.

February 8

Today was a good day. 3 out of my 4 teachers were absent so It was nice. I barely slept last night so after I'm done with blog I'm going to sleep. Thats everything that happened today.

In regards to my Wise project theirs been no progression since yesterday. Because of that I have nothing new to report. I've got 33 slides so far so I guess I'm ahead of everyone else.

February 7

This my first blog of the week. I was very happy to learn that last week I got 108 out of 108 in wise. That means that I did everything I was supposed to do last week yeah. I'm very happy about that because this shows that I'm doing my wise project the right way.

During the weekend I began doing serious research on my wise project. I am currently at 33 slides and counting. It's kinda hard to find good information but I'm working on it. One interesting fact that i learned this week was by age 14 the average American child has seen 11,000 people die on TV. Isn't that kinda scary?

February 3

Today I will have my mentor meeting with Mrs. Sachs. Im really happy because I've done everything I was supposed to this week before it was due so I don't have any Wise homework tonight. I beloieve my problem with my old Wise account is over and I'm glad. I completed the student notes portion last night so I have everything ready for the meeting.

As far as my wise research is going I completed my interview last night with my neighbor Bruce Rauscher. He was very helpfuland talked to me about his proffesion. I am going to finish my research this weekend when I work on my project.

February 2

Im so glad that my blog account is working now. It was such a hassle to deal with not having a blog and writing everything in Microsoft Word. Today I  completed my personal interview and it went great. Mr. Raucher was extremely helpful and answered most of my questions. All I have to remember now is to turn it into Coach Love.

I haven't begun researching my project yet so I really don't have anything to report on that end. So far adjusting to WISE is turning out to be much easier than I thought. Thats all I have for now

Feb 1

This is my first WISE blog since my old account got screwed up. Apparently google thinks that my last name is dirty...oh well. I've figured out who I'm going to interview for my homework this week. His name is Bruce Rauscher and he's and editor for a local spanish television station. I guess a TV editor and Critic have something in common. The hard part is the questions that I have to come up with.

Today was my first group meeting afterschool. It was very informative and I learned how to add rss links to my blog. Coach Love also told us about how to post videos on our blogs. I'm not very technical so I don't think I will use it anytime soon. Thats all I have for now.
