Evolution

If you guys are thinking that this post is about dinosaurs and Pangea you are wrong. Sorry to break the news, but it is not about that. That would be really weird if it was, who blogs about that in a totally girly blog. Okay whatever. This post is actually about how I've changed since I first started blogging, and since I started my freshman year.

In the academic view I feel like I've improve a lot on my writing and expressing myself. When Mr.Parker first told us that we were going to start blogging for the rest of the year I was sooooo mad. I couldn't believe it, specially because I have no creativity in writing any sort of story or blog. I couldn't even write on my journal, because I always thought that everything I wrote was stupid and immature. But thanks to this blog I've started to become more comfortable with my writing. In my other academics I learned more than the previous years. I even took AP Human Geography, which I have the AP test for this friday. I managed to stay in Honor Roll and in NJHS. I even took yearbook as an extra class after school. So I think from the academical side I've definitely improved from how I started.

Now, looking at the personal side I've definitely grown as a person. I'm not the quite it shy girl that never spoke for herself because she was scared of what other people had to say about me. Now I say what I think and when I don't like something I will defenetly go up to the person and say hey I didn't like what you said/did. So I'm pretty happy about that. I've also made so many more friends this year that have helped me developed into a better version of me. So shout out to all my peeps out there.

Shout out to Mr.Parker for helping me find my voice through this assigment. From time to time it was difficult, but I'm really glad I got to have the experience of having my own blog. I've might of not become blog famous but at least I've grown as a person thanks to this blog. XOXO, Francesca

Who Even is Francesca ?!

Greetings my name is Francesca Castellano!  I'm a fourteen year old 9th grader who wants to share her thoughts with you about the "perks" of being a teenage girl and how it is not so bad to be a teenager. Some things about me that I would like to share are that I'm really into softball, basketball, hanging with my friends, and trying to give my friends good advice that would help them find the right choice. My blog is going to be about tips on how to handle school, relationships and a guide to manage time in an effective way. This blog would pretty much just talk about anything about being a teenager and how with a positive mind you can make this years the best you've ever had. Hopefully together will be able to go into this journey and make the most of it.

This are my parents and I when I was little.

The picture above is me with my parents when we went to visit Peru during the summer of 2006. Well I was born in Italy and lived there for nine years, when I turned nine I moved to  Peru because my mom wanted my brothers and I to experience a new type of life. After when I turned ten we moved to the USA due to my dad's work being here. I'll have to admit that it was a pretty good experience but at the same time I kind off hated it. Seriously think of having to change school, friends, and language! You guys might think that it was so cool to live in all of this places but it actually wasn't. First of all having to learn a new language every single time we moved was the hardest thing ever but if you look at it in a positive way I got to learn new languages which makes me trilingual. When we moved we also had to change school which totally sucked, because I'm a really shy person and it's sooooo hard for me to make new friends. 

Some interesting things about me (well, not that interesting) are that I have two brothers an older one which all my friends think he's so "hot" and a younger one who's so "cute" ad people say, they probably just say that because they don't have to live with them. But here's a picture of us.
