Veterans Day

Never Forgotten

         November 11 is the anniversary of the end of World War I , we call this day Armistice Day. Soon in 1954 it was renamed to Veterans Day. This day is known to show respect for people who had served our country the United States of America. Men and women who risked there lives for our country. These people did not have too take a chance or volunteer to protect Americans. We should thanks Veterans everyday not just on November 11, we would even have much freedom if  it was not for veterans. They have real courage, brave humans too risk there lives for somebody else who is not thankful. These soldiers were committed and gave a sacrifice too put their life their blood on the line too defend our way of living.
        Veterans Day is too honor the living and the dead who fought for us. People fought because they believe we should have a free country. They were dedicated. People fought for the rights for our country. The are respected for all there works they put into this country. They made a big difference in America today. They have all my respect, I fully appreciate them for the works they have done.

Taxes

Most people that have jobs have a Salary. He boss keeps a Payroll too keep track of what amount of money his employee's makes. The Net Pay is all your taxes added up. Federal , Social Security , State , Medicare , Pension , and Gross Pay Taxes. The state makes you pay your text so if you don't they just take it out of your check.  Your Pension is you retirement money.  You Gross Pay is all you money you have made overtime working all hours. Medicare Tax pay for your medicine of any time of prescription when your sick. State Tax you pay to keep your money coming too you form the state. The State Tax is important because if you even need need with money they help you out but eventually when you get back on track you have too pay them back. Social Security is one of the largest government, if someone passes aways and does not have enough money too pay for a  service the Social Security will help. Elderly people that do not work get a social security check too help with bills and food.

Election .

Some people say negative thing about Obama and Romney . They may have there differences but there can only be one winner in this election . Race does not matter in this , what matter is what they will do for our country. I wish people would understand that instead of voting because there white or black .

Spreadsheets .

In Ms.Shannon's Class we have been learning about Spreadsheets. There are Columns and Rows. Another name for those are Grid Lines . The rows are set up to go up and down the columns go across . When typing you set your cursor in a range which is and cell . If you are typing in that Cell it is an Active cell if there are no words in the cell it is a Cell Address . When working in Microsoft Excel you are working in a Sheet , you can rename the Sheet Tab . To not save so many sheets you can make a Workbook with all your sheet in one book . If you are adding Values you use a Formula instead of adding all numbers up in calculators . If you do not want too use values you can use Numeric labels . You can also use Auto Sum when Selecting the column and it adds up on its own . To translate words to another cell you use Fill Handle . Designing a spreadsheet use Auto Format yo add Graphs and other sorts of materials with auto format . Labels are mostly are used to create titles .

Lamar County .

Lamar County School is a good school system. I just started going too this school a few weeks ago. At first I disliked it , I guess because I really did not know anybody. Now I have a few friends a hand full. The ways of teaching are good. If you don't understand just ask and it's automatically help.
The things i dislike that could be changed are the dress code, and lunch. I think we should be able too wear holes in our pants. I feel we are mature enough too know the extant to go with the holes. Collar shirt should have too be tucked nor be worn. The way we dress shows who we really are. If everybody dress the same way nobody can really speak for there self. But on the other hand the dress code is a good thing. Now you can not take advantage and wear just anything too school.
The cafeteria food is healthy now. There is not anymore whole bread now we have wheat bread. Not much meat is being entered into the body. We should be able to have more food. Right after lunch you go right back to class. If you are still hungry your brain can not function as well.
I can say so far it has been a good school to attend.

Homecoming !

 Homecoming is on its was in one week. Time to show the spirit. Homecoming you school team should win especially if it's at home on their field. Everybody is at the game, no one is at home. One day of the year when the team really get too show off. People  together befoer, during , and after the game. It will be past midnight when you get home if you team one and celebrated .

Reason For Life .

Reason For Life .

Biology is my favorite of all my subjects . Another name for biology is science.You understand the nature of life. The real meaning of where animals and plants come from . Even if you do not understand biology it explains where you come. Explains what we eat all the nutrients in the food. Tells who eats what we, who makes what we eat. The producers the consumers. Biology tells reproductions, the chromosomes all the genetics. Why do seasons change? Why do animals change colors? All these questions are obtain to the study of life. If there was no science we could not explain the world the reason of the world. We all need biology.



Annie Rockermore

My Inspiration.

My inspiration, motivation, my life. Annie Grace Rockemore my hero. Annie Grace my grandmother, she brings joy too to my everyday life. She is there for me when everybody else turns there back on me she still motivates me not to give up. She never gave up on me. My grandmother is 79 years of age and still is living like a Christian. She was born on March 22, 1933; she was raised in Upson County by my deceased great grandparents. Johnny and Mammy Prater. They lived on Wiley Street in Lincoln Park Thomaston, Georgia.

My grandmother was the only child. Mammy Prater and three sisters Ally, Smity and Mary. Annie Rockemore’s hero was her aunt Smity. To my grandmother a hero to her was a person that has went through situations and tests, they want to have strength and wisdom and good understandings.

The most important thing in her life right about now is she wants to be free, wanting to set a good example for her children and grandchildren. Annie Grace has four children three girls and one boy, Balien Henderson, Bobby Rockemore, Jackie Prater, and Pamela Bentley. She was married too Billy Rockemore, but he died 27 years ago.  I never was able to meet him.

My grandmother raised almost all her grandchildren. When I was little I lived with my grandmother Chantz Rockemore, Jakel Jordan, and I all lived with her at the same time. In her house it’s not many bedroom only two and she made room for all of us. We all ate and we all were clothed. It’s a blessing too have grandmothers like her. I don’t call her grandmother I call her (Bigmama). I remember every day when Chantz and I were in pre-k, she would pick us up every day and go too Pizza Hut and order my pizza then go to Subway and get Chantz his sub. That was our day after school. We went too A.J mini School in Thomaston, Georgia. Until this day we still talk on the phone every day. I thank God that he bless me with a grandmother like Annie Grace Rockemore.

 To conclude I am thankful to have her apart of my life, and she will continue. Until death do us part. No man could separate us. Annie is my heart if no one else is there I can count on her. I pray that God does not take her away for me. I have no clue what this world be like if she was gone. I would have no world. Grandmother are a blessing!

The Death Roll On September 11, 2001 .

On September 11, 2001 was the calling home for some people. The planes crashing into the Twin Towers was unnecessary. The North and South World Trade Complex. Fighting with somebody else in the same state had nothing too do with people working in that building. The 9/11 killed thousands of people.

I am so against the plan crashing into a building. Some people say we deserve it some say we do not. I am for the Do Not. Terrorists were wrong.The 19 of them deserved there punishment. It Happened in Georgia so it affected all U.S citizens. New York was the most damaged physically but emotionally all states were damaged.
