“First Persuasive Paragraph”

In my opinion, freshmen students shouldn’t have self passes because they haven’t built the trust from higher authorities on campus. By giving them the privilege to go off campus would be risky because they might get into big trouble and it would have a great cost if they decide to AWOL. Because the freshmen still have the set of mind of middle school, they are more likely to be less mature than the upper class students and misuse the privilege of having self passes. Self passes should be given to students that have earned the trust of adults and are known to be responsible for what they do off campus. That's why freshmen shouldn't have self passes.

“The Bass, the River, and Shelia Mant Airhead Stereotype”

Sheila Mant is a beautiful airhead because she doesn't pay attention to her surroundings very good. For example, when the canoe was going backwards, she didn't realize why it was. She didn't pay attention to the boy's actions. It is a stereotype because she is a blonde chick that is self-observant.

"Catch the Moon" Falling in Love

When one is in love, they might not notice it at first. Even as a teen, love was a stranger in my eyes. I had older people tell me that the right person for me is when I experience love at first sight. Two years after I got to SPA I was fooling around with other girls, but then “BAAMMM!!!” I met this girl. She wasn’t like all the others. She’s smart, funny, but she was only focus on her education. That was when she got here at SPA. When I laid my eyes on her, my heart started pounding against my chest. I never felt like this in my life. I knew I had to treat her right. Even now I am still with her, but our love isn’t that strong yet. I would say that it is at a point that we can sit on the phone, not saying anything and we would still enjoy it. She may not know this, but when she thinks I don’t notice things, I do. Something that I have noticed is that when I feel down or mad, she is always there to comfort me. I can say that she is my motivation. Now I know why older people say love at first sight because when I saw her, I knew she was the one. Some people might not call it love, but to me that is.
