    Allison Michelle wants to start college now.

    Karaoke  — 5 months ago

    This has been something I have always wanted to do, but I’ve never had the guts to do it. I didn’t do it by myself though, but I still did it.
    I decided that I would mark this done when I do 10 things that I was afraid to do but did them anyway.

    Bangs!  — 7 months ago

    I was so nervous about this. I didn’t know if I really wanted to do it and I put it off for over 4 months. But I finally did it the other day. I conquered my fear and I’m so glad. I love my new hair!

    Fear #1- Standing up to people  — 8 months ago

    My co-editor is not a very nice person. She is selfish and doesn’t work well with others. Her way is the only way, at least to her. A lot of people don’t like her because she is like this, and more people than that are afraid of her. I used to be like that until I decided to stand up to her. I was sick of her missing class, treating me and the rest of the staff like crap, and thinking that she was in charge of everything when we were supposed to be working together. I didn’t back down, even when she was cussing me out. I wasn’t rude or anything. I didn’t stoop to her level of language, nor did I give in. I stood firm. I was so angry with her though. This was not the first time she treated me like that. Somehow, a lot of people found out about it, even people I don’t really talk to. One kid in my second period class the next day gave me a high five because I stood up to her. It is something a lot of people wanted done, but I guess no one had the guts nor the opportunity to do it. I didn’t do it to be mean, but I did it in order to make sure our yearbook would be finished by our deadline. My teacher even told me she was proud that I stood up to her because she knows how she acts and treats people. This is a girl who thinks she is on top of the world and is better than everyone else, yet I think when I stood up to her and didn’t back down from her crap, realized that she wasn’t as powerful as she thought.
