Setting a Standard for Myself Crash,boom,bam and back into the world of trouble! I step back on this crazy life of horrible people and the goofy things people do. Then I take four steps forward and someone steps on my life and encourages me. I need to set a standards. One time when I was in the fifth grade my lovely mom let me go to the Esplanade Mall by myself with one friend and her oldest sister. This was the very first time without an adult's supervision. I can remember my mom's exact words,"Stay out of trouble."I arrived at the mall and walked into this purple jewerly store called Claire's. My two friends and I started shopping. I saw what I wanted, and they saw what they wanted also. When we got to the cash register they didn't have enough money so they put some items back that they really wanted. I had extra money left over so I went and shopped around some more, while they just walked around and looked. I pick up my things and paid the cashier while they stole many things out if the store. We were walking out the beeper went off, "beeeeeeeeeeeep." They told us to stay right there until a security arrived.He checked us and found stuff that they shoved in my bad and other items on them. They called the police and had all of us arrested just when I was at the age of ten years old. Being a good leader is a good thing to do. Basically set good examples for yourself and follow them. Staying out of trouble is the best thing to do. When I stepped into the doors of my seventh grade year at Roosevelt Middle School and thought I could do whatever I want because I don't always have adult watching everything I do and people don't label me as the little sixth grader anymore I thought I was the stuff. I got my first behavior report,detention,and suspension. I received all of this because I tried to be down with people that call me their friends but wasn't necessarily. I always used to rebut to the teacher and tell her what I'm not going to do. I would get written up and don't care. But as I sit in the office and think about,I wish I could turn back. Summarizing all this that I said is to only follow the right people,Choose your friends wisely. Make standards for your own good. Think about it before doing it.And finally be a good leader

Volleyball

Bump,set,spike,and back over the net. It's best for people to share their support. America's best in
the U.S;which is my favorite,volleyball.
Most Americans in the United states watch voleyball on either television or they attend a game.When just watching it on television or just a game,it's the same amount of excitement.The games only last for a hour;a hour and a half at the most.
Volleyball is usually played in any month which is at any time of the year. If for some reason it's
too cold or too hot it's held inside the gym on a court.Otherwise,volleyball can be played as beach volleyball
outside in the sand.
Volleyball says alot about Americans.Sports like this says that many are sucessful and love what they
desire to do.
Coming to a conclusion this summarizes as saying that volleyball players love the effort that make on
the court and love the American audience that supp
ort them.
