end of classes

I liked the class journalism. The class was interesting over all I liked the photoshop unit. I like how their wasn't a lot of homework to do and the homework wasn't hard and they didn't have a lot of point for the homework. the best part is that we didn't have quizzes in the class except the one in the begging.

I like the movie over all. it showed how you can get in trouble if you write made up story. i think that he should not got in trouble for writing made up story. But the movie is good. i would recommend someone to watch it.

rough draft

With the school almost over people think what they will do after high school. Some of the people will be going to college and some will be finding work to earn some money and some will be waiting a year before going to college.
Like John said “going to college is the best idea that he had”. Because he think that going to college he will meet new people and learn more that he didn’t know. He is against waiting a year before going to college because he thinks when someone wait a year. They will forget what they learned in high school. “By going to college early you will finish it early to and you can find a good job that will pay you a lot “said John. When people said that they will work to earn money and then go to college. John thinks that you can work and go to college at the same time you don’t have to work and then go to college.
Other people think that you need a break from school to get ready for bigger assignments and much bigger work. So people will think to get a year off of college to relax and get ready. People don’t think that they will forget everything that they learned in high school. Tom thinks that you need some rest from the twelve years of hard work that you spent in school. But he doesn’t think that if he goes to college he will finish it early and get the dream job. When he was asked what he would do his year off? He waited a minute before he answer. Tom said that he will work to earn money. Then he was asked you can earn money while you are in school. He thought that it was good idea. But then he said it will be too much work because you will need to work and not for get to do homework for classes.

“I like the game but don’t like the graphics of it. The game needs some work because it’s the first game that they came out with” John said.
Ross said that the game is worth to buy for it game play but not for the graphics. But he said that it’s not worth to pay 60 dollars for the game that you would play for a day or two. John has the same opinion as Ross about the game because he doesn’t like games that you have to pay more then you get.
