final blog post

1.) I've done more writing in this class than in any other class in my life, but it honestly doesn't feel like it. This class has been so fun! I know I've done a lot of work, and I feel accomplished, but it's been so fun that while I'm actually doing it, it doesn't even feel like work. My favorite of all the pieces we've done has been the window poem. I liked being able to paint and draw and tell my story about a something that's important to me. I also enjoyed the photo hunt assignment and taking pictures and writing about them. All the assignments in this class are fun because Mrs. Fraser is a teacher who cares about more than meeting the curriculum. She is hands down one of the best teachers at Kickapoo.
2.) I've enjoyed being able to read my fellow classmates blogs over the past semester. I've really enjoyed Matt's and Karlee's! They are both great writers and always have something interesting to say!
3.) Creating a blog has been a really neat experience! I have a tumblr, but I mostly use it for photos, so this has been a lot different than that! I am pretty simple, so I kept the name of my blog short and sweet, and to the point. I hope my peers have enjoyed my blog as much as I have enjoyed theirs! I hope that my mom will read it someday! I hope I continue to post! It's been a lot of fun! I might write about my experiences of senior year, and graduation, and possibly the trips and adventures I go on!
4.) Journaling has been great! I can write about anything and everything, I can draw, I can put quotes in it! I don't know if anyone would really want to read my journal, because it has a lot of rough drafts in it. emphasis on the word rough... If i continue to write in my journal it will be pre-blog posts.
5.)  Baseball is a very important game to me. I started going to Ducks games when I was 1, and have loved the game ever since. I actually always have a baseball with me, so thats why it's important to me. I started playing softball the summer after 5th grade, but then I quit. I started playing again in 10th grade, and now it takes up most of my time. The game has taught me a lot.
6.) To my wonderful, loving, thoughtful, and selfless mother;

God made you my mom to show me a kind of unconditional love that only a mother can give. When I look back on my childhood, I can see that you gave it your all. You've gone above and beyond to give me the best life you could provide. Along the way, you worried a lot, and didn't always get things right on the first try, but you taught me about kindness, love, compassion, and honesty. I sometimes forget to say thank you, and take the special little things you do for granted. I just want you to know, I love you for the way you always listen, and for your kind support throughout the years, for teaching me the meaning of compassion, and sharing in my triumphs and my tears. If I ever seem ungrateful, just know that I hope you see that nothing you have done for me goes unnoticed or forgotten, and day by day you mean more and more to me.

Thank you for being my rock. You make the bad times better and the good times great. Thank you for believing in me even when I, coaches, or friends don't. You see potential in me that no one else does and you push me to do my best and always give 100%. I am so blessed that God gifted me to a mom like you

Love always,
Kammy

7.) I hope to continue writing. It's helped me learn a lot about myself. This writing isn't graded which makes it more genuine. I'm not afraid to add in my opinions and thoughts and feeling. There's no fear of rejection in creative writing.
