The Chosen Ones Book Report

At the start of seventh grade I had very stressful worries, but most of my anxiety went away as the year went on. I still have some worries that are stressful now. My first major worry is about forgetting my homework because I can’t get it if I had left it at my house. My next worry that I still have is being late. An example of this is that instead of my dad taking me to school, my mom is taking my brother and I.

Each morning at school I would run after my mom and spend every morning in the counsellor’s office. My brother who was five at the time would be woken up every night with me screaming and crying. My school and social life went downhill; I missed out on the essentials in Mathematics and English, which are still problematic for me. I had to go through this alone as my friendships were almost non-existent by

Get to know the person as who they really are before you start to judge. In To Kill a Mockingbird written by Harper Lee, many characters have some very misleading appearances. One side of the book is about Boo Radley living near Atticus. They assume he is a very bad, scary person because he never comes out of the house. From what they see, the house is falling apart and is very dark inside all the time.

Ever since I was a child, I loved reading. Once middle school started, and I had a huge library of books at my fingertips, my reading habit quickly spiraled out of control. I snuck books into class, got into trouble for reading during lectures, and was reprimanded frequently at home and in school. My grades were dropping, and I constantly felt unaware of my surroundings. I started doing poorly in my classes because I spent more time reading than studying.

From his parents, he barely gained the warmth of being in a complete family. As Ponyboy said, “His father was always beating him up, and his mother ignored him, except when she was hacked off at something, and then you could hear her yelling at him clearly down at our house. He hates that worse than getting whipped…If it hadn’t been for the gang, Johnny would never have known what love and affection are” (Hinton P.12), we can clearly known that Johnny’s parents were extraordinarily violent to Johnny. Due to the charac- teristic of Johnny’s father, the hereditary gene of violence affected fixed some of Johnny’s personal- ity. Also, Johnny was only the one who serves as a vent to his parents’ anger.

Hitchcock’s childhood passed by as a ‘lonely and sheltered’ childhood because his parents never gave him the rights and freedom he deserved. His life seemed incomplete partly because of his obesity, and somewhat without the love and protection of his parents. As a child, Hitchcock was a quiet young boy who never participated in mischievous acts or got into trouble. Unfortunately, his parents thought differently. His parents considered him to be a rude and impatient child, and because of that he was once sent to the local police station with a note written by his father, stating that his son should be locked up for 10 minutes, because of his ill timed behaviour.

Most of their time is spent in school and when they get home, there are still a bunch of home works to work on and chapter exams to study. This gives rise to the reason that students have a maximum sleep of 4-5 hours per night or even none at all and therefore, sleep deprived. Though at least 68.2% of the students answered that they cram the night before, the outcome would still be that they lack sleep. The reasons may vary from the choices of the students, they may have chosen to hang out with friends even on class days or the exams and projects are due the following day. Nevertheless, one of the major causes why students experience stress, depression, weight gain, mood swings and tiredness is all because of sleep deprivation.

This is evident through the students’ GPA’s. Kelly and colleagues rumored that folks who slept nine hours or additional during a 24-hour amount had considerably higher GPA’s than short sleepers who sleep six hours or less during a 24-hour amount. These short sleepers show a very bad result with a low GPA and having a lot of uncompleted work. More and more, all-nighter students find difficulties to catch up the morning classes and missing a lot of important lectures and even they can attend it they won’t get any benefit of being in the class because the brain will be unready to receive information, getting low grades and having issues with many subject all that for only one

Eminem was so severely bullied in his public school that his mother went and sued the local school board for “failing to sufficiently protect her child” so the fact that his mum had to sue the local school goes to show that his time at school wasn 't the best and like tupac, had a difficult early life. Another achievement which eminem received was When “Lose Yourself” won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, however Eminem was not there to accept the award, he was asleep during the ceremony because he believed he would not win. The fact that he was asleep whilst the ceremony was on shows how much faith he had in himself and this can be for a number of reasons but the main one being how much people put him down in his youth age and therefore made him have no faith in himself and that 's why he believed he would have no chance

In order to pull myself out of the warm embrace of my bed every morning, I require grit: perseverance, passion, and mental strength. To begin, I must explain that I have major depressive disorder, a disorder in which I am not able to see the point of doing things and be a functioning member of society, and getting out of bed everyday is by far my biggest obstacle. More specifically, days that I am forced to pry myself out of bed and attend class are the worst, but I persevere and accomplish the task every time I can; I tell myself “you can do this”. Consequently, I am granted the power of perseverance and have an ability to keep going, even when I doubt that I can. Secondly, my burning passion for a few things helps me keep afloat.

So many times I have gotten sick because I got up so early and it was cold so I got sick because I didn 't get enough sleep. This isn 't just me who suffer from this, every kid does. Teens need sleep to develop and to be healthy. I have gotten better grades in later classes then early classes because my brain is able to wake up. The other problem with school starting so early, is that

I remember waking up for school that day extremely sick with a cold, I know it sounds weak, but it was really bad. As much as I wanted to stay home and spend the day resting, I had to go to school, which was terrible. As soon as I finished class I went straight home and tried to sleep the cold off. After a nice long refreshing nap I packed up my gear and went to the rink where the bus was picking us up. The bus ride was about an hour and a half, a lot of the guys peed in bottles because we got lost and the ride took longer than expected.
