Christmas Stuff

I love everything Christmasy . I love the presents , the food, and the people I get to see. My family really doesn't have any special traditions, but this year we will be having Rocco's lasagna that I am greatly looking forward to. We probably will not make a hbait out of the lasagna , which makes it even cooler because it is more special. Also this is the first year I have asked for anything since I was like six and I am pumped to open gifts. The only bad part about getting presents is that I have no source of income, therefore I can not afford to buy presents for all my friends and family.

Christmas

There are very few negatives to Christmas. In fact the negatives that do exist are very minor and I don't mind dealing with them. The first being the cold weather. I am not a big fan of the cold but I can tolerate it. Hey, cold weather equals snow days and you can't be upset with that. The other thing that bothers me is how much of a commercial holiday Christmas has become but once again I deal with it because Christmas times means seeing family, playing basketball, and getting new stuff to mess with.

school lunch

The lines are too long, the serving sizes are inadequate, and the quality is poor. I have absolutely no form of praise for our pathetic excuse of a lunch. Everything is low- fat or sugar free which is completely ridiculous. Although obesity rates are high in West Virginia all the students aren't obese, therefore you can't regulate an entire lunch for a few fatties. The school policy for portion control is in desperate need of revision.

Improvement

Spring Valley High School is in desperate need of help. The computer labs are overbooked and the computers malfunction constantly. Also students are required to be at school far longer than need be. Some students have periods where they don't even have a class or are taking courses irrelevant to their needs. School hours should vary based on students needs and progression levels. Basically, I really just want high school to be more like college. Teachers are also a problem due to the lack of. Some of my previous classes, as well as current, are far to crowded.

The Man

Stan Lee, thank you for bringing Spiderman into this world. You sir are a true HERO.

Favorite Cartoon

My favorite cartoon is undoubtedly Spiderman. I own the first two seasons of Spiderman on dvd and I watch them constantly. The messages behind the episodes and the thought process used to develop the characters and their stories are incredible. They don't get enough credit from people. Spiderman is the greatest cartoon ever created. I mean look at what all has come from it: movies, clothes, costumes, toys, etc. It is a timeless show that should be treasured by all generations passed and to come.
