I don’t really have plans for the summer.I learn in the summer because my life is a learning experience.One thing I can do is act more mature.
Final Essay
What’s good about South Central is you never know whats going to happen.When you don’t know whats going to happen, it keeps you alert or aware.When your aware,your better prepared in life.Overall I do like going to school in SC.I like it because everyday were here,it gives us a chance to prove people wrong.The three most important events that have had the greatest impact on making SC,LA what it is today are Crack Epidemic,Gang History,and The L.A. Riots.
I think The Crack Epidemic is one of the worst because it had a negative impact.It is important because it ruined the ghettos of SC,It has torn families apart and killed people.I chose this event because if there was no Crack Epidemic,there would probably be a lower crime rate and mothers and fathers would stay with their children.Everything would be better.When everything is better,everyone is happy and there are less worries.
Gang History is also one of the worst ones because gangs have also torn families apart.Gangs still go on today.They’re not just some period of time in the 80’s.They are real ad they are here.This is important because people have lost loved ones to gangs.I’ve heard someone say before”I’ll kill for my homies,but not my mom.”That’s exactly what I mean.
The last event that made SC what it is today is The L.A. Riots.The L.A. Riots had a both positive and negative impact on SC.Negative because 53 people died and positive because it showed the government can’t just walk all over the tax payers and that if they do,they will raise hell and destroy another city.This is important because it showed how we stand when it comes to being treated unfairly.I bet they’ll think twice about having a fair trial when it come to the justice of a Black male or female.
The Crack Epidemic,The History of Gangs,and The L.A. Riots impacted SC in different ways.I think that SC will eventually change because eventually,things do.It won’t just change in the blink of an eye.We have to contribute because we are the resident of our community.We live in SC.This is our home.

My end of the school year will suck because I will have to retake all of my classes unless I come after school every day.
Your Message
It would be to not do drugs because I saw the people in the Ricky Ross video and they were homeless and picking up whatever they find and smoking it and when people who do crack while pregnant,they become crack babies.It would make less death’s, and less people messing up their lives.

Struggles
That’s something I don’t want to answer.It has had a negative impact on me.It has made things more difficult for me.
Grades
