Closer to the end of the year

SOOOOOOO It’s almost to an end. THE SCHOOL YEAR, OMG! It went by sooo fast I can’t believe it. The closer it gets the more I’m saying to myself am I ready for what the world has to offer me. It is so scary. Thinking about college and being an adult. My mother told me that high school would end in a snap of a finger but i didn’t listen, I never knew it would come this fast. I am really going to Miss high school and the crazy things, and people in Thurgood Marshall Academy. It’s been a journey and many conflicts faced. I met a few college students who said they glad they left and they don’t miss it as much as they use to. I hope it’s like that for me, because it’s very emotional. Hopefully I’m strong enough for what’s out there in this cold world.

Definition of economics

This week in economics class we were reading about the definition of economics. Economics is a social science that studies how individuals, governments, firms and nations make choices on allocating scarce resources to satisfy their unlimited wants. We also read how economics can be broken down into macroeconomics. Macroeconomics is the study of individual economic units such as households and firms. We also learned about economic growth and Economic development. Economic growth is an increase in the quantity of resources. Economic development is a qualitative measure of a country’s standard of living which takes into account many factors such as education and health. I kind of enjoyed this topic. It was nice to learn something new.

Regents Prep

Today I went to regent’s prep and I feel like it’s really helping me. Before i did any regents prep I use to go home and just read about something that had to do with U.S history. I realized that what my version of studying was not working for me after i went to regent’s prep. I realized that I needed to practice doing regents questions and documents. Right at this moment I know I have no choice but to pass this regents because it’s holding me back and putting weight on my shoulders. I regret messing up and now I have to make it up it’s a priority. I know all I do is talk but know I have to show myself that nothing can’t be done if I don’t do it and put my all into it. I'm going to do what i have to do and pass the regent's
