Turn back time

If I were to change one thing about my past I would change my friend committing suicide. I used to do almost everything with her. We were really great friends, we liked all the same things and had all the same feelings for everything. If she were here today it would affect a lot of people. She had a lot of friends and I am sure every one of them misses her because I know I do. Though I do not think anyone misses her as much as I do, especially since I had planned to asking her about dating soon. And she committed suicide a couple days after my birthday so my birthday is always a bad time for me. If I could change her committed suicide I would not have to ask for flowers to set on her grave. And I could look forward to my birthday instead of it being a constant reminder of her and what could have been.

Valued

The thing I value the most is my family. Once my mom passed away her side of the family just stopped talking to us. Though my dad's side of the family is still around making sure we are okay. And I definitely value the time that I get to with them, even-though they can be annoying sometimes. My family might be the most sophisticated either, but they make me laugh and they are always there. And as long as my family is there, that is all I really care about. So, my family coming together again, and we are trying to go do more things together. My family is all about making sure as long as any one is doing good in school that they have some fun in their life too. I think everyone deserves to have fun, and people to be there for them. And I am lucky to be able to have a family like I do.

Summer break

Over the summer, I went on a camping trip with some of my family. There were lots of things to do there like swimming, kayaking, and fishing. I didn't go fishing while I was there, I was too busy kayaking. Kayaking was my favorite thing I did in the camping trip. There was a small lake there to kayak in, and the view was great. I went out on the lake probably ten times, but not every time going out was fun. Three of the times I went kayaking my cousins flipped their kayaks, and I had to carry all of them back to shore. So I had to swim one-handed, dragging around four hard-to-maneuver, 75-pound, pieces of plastic. Though I had to go through that I still had a great time. This summer was definitely one of my more memorable summers, the time I got to spend with my family was priceless.

My name is Justin.

My name is Justin

it is a very common name

lots of people have it 

but we are not all the same

from Bieber to Timberlake

and so many more

some of us are funny

some are just a bore

some Justins are quiet

some only worth a snore

but some Justins are loud

they can be hard to ignore

then there are Justins that have it together

then  for some staying organized is just a chore

some Justins are humble and do not ask for much

but some Justin are greedy and only ask for more

there are Justins who follow the rules 

then some are rotten to the core

then there are Justins who only do what is right

and those Justins do it regaurdless of society trying to put them behind a cell door

these are the Justins I thrive to be 

though most of these Justins are probably just lore

Life rule

When considering all aspects to life, one of my life rules that everyone should follow is to think before they do or say something. Some people have even thrown away their lives because of their actions. People could throw away their whole life in a fit of rage by hurting someone. Or they could even get addicted to drugs and be looked down on. It does not take much to screw up a person's life, just one bad decision. Say someone got very upset with a teacher, if they just reacted in a college setting they might get kicked out of the class. If they got kicked out of a class other school would find out and they would not want to accept them because of their mistake. That is example of many, so people should always think before they act.
