YOU are wonderful :)

As I've seen at least one person mention, I've been out of ideas for creating a blog post. That is, until I looked up from the blinking cursor on the screen and looked outward for inspiration instead of searching inside my head. On my wall I have a mess of different things I look to when I need hope or a smile. It's pictures with friends or a letter from my Big from my days in show choir. I look up and I see things that I'm proud of or these little flash cards that my mom made me write with reasons I should love myself. I think everyone needs a "Wall of Happiness" or some equivalent. Everyone has bad days and needs to be reminded that they are worthy. Of life, of love, of happiness. I'm not exactly sure how everyone can have access to a happiness reminder. But to all of you reading this, and to all of you who are being hard on yourself for how much (or how little) work you've done on summer homework, you are amazing. Everyone here is at least trying to enroll in AP English 11 and even though we might not all make it, that doesn't make you any less beautiful or stunning. I think that a lot of us are probably really hard on ourselves, especially about things like this, (school) but I want to take a moment to say that this class, or any class for that matter doesn't determine your worth as a person. Whether you make it into AP this year or not, all of you have the ability to do something great. I don't want anyone to forget that. I guarantee that each and every one of you is loved and cherished. Please remember that.

  1. I just finished posting my blog and was debating whether or not to read some blogs before I started working on my notebook again when I saw the title of you blog and I was honestly curious to see what you had wrote. I am very happy I decided to read your post, it made me smile and brightened up my day. Thank you Alyssa for posting something so nice and encouraging. You are an amazing person.

  2. Thank you Alyssa I Agree with you; One class or exam doesn't define you as a person (:
