Don't piss in my garden and tell me you're trying to help my plants grow.
Anyone who has been enlisted to help weed a garden knows how hard it is to tell a weed
from a nonweed and may wonder whether there is a secret. What would it be? How do you
recognize a weed? Well, the secret is that there isn’t a secret. Weeds are simply plants that
gardeners don’t want to have growing in their gardens.
Firstly I’d like to say a very big Good-luck to my fellow nominees up here- You’re probably
going to need it… For those of you who don’t know me, I am Brittany Jordan… And those
that do, well I guess you’re the lucky ones. Today I stand before you because I am running
for school captain 2k15. I would like to introduce myself by telling you all a little bit about
me.
So my sister took the blame, and got in really big trouble. Afterwards, I admitted I was the
one who broke it, so my mother put me on punishment and told me “Kayla I am very
disappointed in you. Don’t be surprised when something else bad happen, and you tell me
you didn’t do it, I don’t believe you.” This experience showed that “honesty” really is “the
best policy,” and that it is morally correct to tell the truth.
They teach me right from wrong , and put their mommy in check. “Say bless you mommy”,
“You’re excused”, “Mommy that wasn’t nice”, “I think you owe grandma an apology mom”.
Those are the statements you might hear my children say on a daily basis. As I instill respect
in them, they also instill respect and courtesy in me.
When my children were born, I knew my life was going to change. I started to feel complete
with my life the day my son arrived. Even more complete when my little girl was first placed
in my arms. My children have been my rock over the last three and a half years. They have
helped me learn, grow, and love by showing me the world through their eyes.
I can meet my teachers and ask them to help me on what I don’t understand. I have met
with my Psychology teacher and she has help me on what I don’t understand. There are also
tutors that can help me on my homework and classes, them like teachers are there to help
me on any questions I have. My teacher and tutors have help me a lot because now I
understand more the class and when I need help I go with them so they can help me.
It was so hot in the room, and it was then that I knew I really was in hell. All I could hear
was my heavy labored breathing, and I was concentrating on trying not to pass out from the
heat. “Left foot, right foot, go faster, don’t stop, I don’t want any more yelling at me” I kept
telling myself this over and over again.
