Friends

Choosing the right friends is hard especially on the first day of school. On the first day of school you don't know any. You don't know which students are going to be your friends and which are just going to be your classmates.


Choosing which desk to sit at on the first day and the people around you are most of the time the friends you having through the semester. The people that sit next to you are mostly likely going to be your friends in the class and something even out of class. 

Sometimes you choose bad friends. The way to know if you chose bad friends is by how they act around you and behind you. If your friends make fun of you or laugh at you or take advantage of you then they are not your real friends. Choose a friend that we always stand be you, one that we hang out you with in and out of school and someone that is not mean to you.

Homework

 We all hate homework. And most of us think it is pointless. The truth is homework is very helpful. If teachers never gave homework most of us would fail the tests. Homework is a guide of what is going to be on the test. Even though we think homework is a waste of our time, it actually is not. If you don't study for your test and do the homework, when you take your test you know some of the answers to the questions because the same questions were given on the homework. In a way homework is like an extra study guide. My advice is always do your homework. Homework is never pointless. It is extra practice and if teachers didn't give homework and made it optional, most students would not do it. When the test comes and the students complain to the teacher about the test being to hard, then the teacher tells the students that the questions are straight from the homework and the test should be easy because they SHOULD have done there homework. Only then do the students think that they should have done their homework and wish a little that the homework was mandatory so they have no choose but to do it.

Procrastinating

Everyone procrastinates. Its is a bad habit. Some people say when they wait to the last minute to finish there work, they do a better good. I am one of those believers. The truth is when you do your work earlier you have more time to edit it and make it into something better. If you are writing a paper, when you start early,  you can have someone reread your paper and give there thoughts. Then you change the paper into something better. When you procrastinate you cannot have someone read your paper and you cannot have second thoughts on changing it in a different way.

We must all stop procrastinating. Even though we get out work done, we have to start earlier. The reason is something when you wait until the minute, something comes up. Then you are unable to finish/start your work. Then you go to school with undone homework and when you tell your teacher/professor about what happened and why you could not finish it, the teacher does not have any sympathy for you. They tell why did you start it earlier? Why did you wait until the last minute? You don't have a good answer to that so you are left with a "F". We should all tell ourselves I must not procrastinate.
