A lot of students think that we should not have to wear school uniforms and want to be able to choose what they wear to school every day. I personally think that having school uniforms is better. One reason is that it makes your school look nice by having all the students wearing clothes that represent the school. If everybody wore random and different clothes, it would not look as organized and neat.
Another reason that having a designated thing to wear for school is that it saves time in the moring before school. If you could wear whatever you wanted, you would have to take time in the morning choosing what to wear. With uniforms, you know exactly what you have to wear and you don't need to take any time choosing. The uniforms are just right there ready to go. School uniforms are a good thing to have.

I am currently reading Through My Eyes by Tim Tebow. Where I am in the book, he is talking about what he did when he was a kid. One of the things I have noticed about his writing style is that he doen't use quotes a lot, but instead he tells the reader what was going on in his head. I find that this can make the book a little less interesting to read because if you here the same kind of thing over and over again, it can get a little boring. Even though he does this, it is still pretty interesting to find out more about Tim Tebow and his childhood.
One of the things I like about this book is that he goes into very deep detail while telling his stories. He goes through the story of his life telling the little and big things that happened to him. This allows the reader to get a really good feel of how he looks at things and how he lives. Over all, I have enjoyed the book so far.

In Defense of Food
I thought In Defense of Food had some important and interesting information in it. I was suprised at how much of the food we buy today at the store is barely even food anymore. I didn't realize how many un-natural ingredients were in the common food items that everyone buys in the supermarket. Now that we have gotten into the so-called Western Diet, it will be difficult to try to go to eating the natural and real foods that people ate before they tried to make everything so healthy by putting so many extra things in them.
Though I did like the points that the book made, they could have been made in a shorter amount of time. It seemed like the author was very repetitive and stayed on the same point for a long time, when you already understood it the first time he explained it. It was a difficult and slow book to read, but it did have very interesting parts in it. Some parts of the book were much more interesting than others. Over all, I thought the book was slow, but it was important to read.

In english this year, I hope to improve in reading and writing. I would like to read some interesting books this year and become a better reader. I also hope we do some writing and learn how to become a better writer than I am now. I hope I learn lots of new things.
Hopefully I learn about things that I never knew about in this class. I hope what I learn will be useful to me and also hope that it will be a fun class. I think it will be a good year with lots of learning and interesting things.
