I Know


I know listening to music can ease the pain away.

I know listening to certain songs can put you in a certain mood. Chief keef, Fetty wap, and Migos makes you wanna turn up, Bryson Tiller, J Cole, and The Weekend makes you think about a certain person or life.

I know trying new things can make you a better person.

I know now in 2015 teenagers are scared to love because their heart has been broken.

I know trying hard and staying focused can help you become a better student.

I know when I was in 3rd grade I always wanted to be a teacher, and now as a senior I know that I still want to be a teacher.

I know the only reason I want to graduate is so I can go to college but to also be the first to go to college in my family and stay all 4 years.

I know the only reason I'm still here is because of my little brother.

I know I have only one real friend who never switched up one me, Keyonna Crossley- Brown.

I know people want to be themselves but don't want to be judged, and now that's why the world is how it is now.

I know if you're colored, you sag, have dreads or the most known hairstyles that gives police officers a reason to take you as a threat.

I know black lives matter. A lot of blacks are getting killed by white police and nothing is being done about it, but If a black person killed a white police they would instantly be put in jail.

I know That back then a dollar was all you needed to buy chips, juice, candy and a honeybun, but if you had more money that was more junk food for you because everything was 25 cent.

I know my mom didn't go to college when she was my age cause she was pregnant, but went back to get a better job.

I know teachers at Epic  want every student to be college ready. From freshman year to senior year they prepare us for the college life.

I know when you're not feeling good laughter is the best medicine. When you're having a bad day a good laugh can make you feel a lot better.

I know the best gift you can ever receive is being around the ones you love.

I know the worst feeling in the world is losing someone you really love. If they passed away or if they decided to not be in your life anymore.

I know we are in school so we won't be the people begging for money after high school.

I know people would like to speak their mind but people might switch their words around and cause a problem because they're misunderstood.  

I know as a kid everyone read or heard of Dr. Seuss because it's great for beginning readers and he teaches life lessons.

I know the quote "choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day In your life"  mean if you love something, you're passionate about it and you wouldn't mind doing it everyday.

I know that everyone does something their not suppose to do but they have a great reason. We do stuff that's wrong to learn from our mistakes, to show people that things we're not suppose to do is not always a bad thing.

I know that you should put yourself before others because not everyone cares about your feelings. You should love yourself because that's who you are and no one can change that.

I know everyone has someone important in their life that they can always count on, but the day they let that Person down is the day that person will not want to let anyone else in their life.
