Hi this is Owen Redd and I read all of last years posts and they were awesome. One comment stuck out to me and that was READ. I know this is an honors class so I knew that there was going to be a ton of reading getting done. I have always loved to read so I knew this wasn't going to be a big problem but I usually forget that I have to read. I usually do a ton of reading every once awhile, but this year I'm probably going to read every day. Another thing that stuck out to me was don't procrastinate. I know I have a huge problem with this. For an example I accepted the invitation like two weeks ago and i'm now posting. My mom gets mad at me all the time for doing this. Although this year I am going to try my hardest to keep up on all the latest assignments. Lastly I saw relax. I picked this one because I always get stressed about the simplest things. This year I made into all honors and I know to just relax because I usually get stressed in my honor classes. Also I know as long as I keep up on the assignments i'll be fine.

                 I usually love to write cool stories and I think its really fun. But the thing I hate about writing is all the essays and Utah Compose stuff. Other than all essays I love to write cool and fun stories. Last year I won a short story contest on any subject and it was published In a book. I thought that was really cool and I hope to win writing contests this year. Last year in honors language arts I didn't really like to write. But by the end of the year and the older I got I enjoyed writing a lot more for some reasons. I think its because the more cool books and stories I read the more I became to appreciate it. Anyway I enjoyed writing my first blog post and I look forward to it next month.
