Middle Class

Being born into the middle class is like being born into the middle class. The middle class is more rich than the poor class. But not as rich as the upper class. So being born into the middle class means nothing to interesting or different. Yes it is very posible to changefrom different  classes. From the one you were born into. If you start in the lower class you could start with the most important thing you can do to get into a higher class. Education is your starting point or foundation. If you go to school, do your your work and get good grades you will be on the right track. You also have to stay out of trouble. With a good education it makes it easier to get a good job. If you have a college degree it makes it even easier. So you can get a good job and make good money to move up into an upper class. But it could be vise versa if you start in an upper class. If you think everything will be easy coasting just because you are in the upper class, that is wrong. You could tend to slack off in school and get in trouble. But it is as easy as that to end up in the lower class.

Autobiographical incident

Fears can be big or small, and in my case it was pretty major. Traveling by myself was something I was not very comfortable with. But I knew I would have to face it one day.

I t was during the summer and I was home alone. My mom was at work and my sister was out of town. It was around noon and I was still sleeping when I heard my phone ringing. I went to answer it and it was my mom. I answered with a sleepy voice. She told me good morning and if I was doing fine. She then told me she had tickets for the giants game that night. So it was a no brainer for me and I said yes. After she asked if I was fine going alone. At first I was as confused as a cat emerging from the dryer. But then I remembered she had an event for work that night. I thought about and told her yes. She told me to take the caltrain there and back. So she told me where the ticket was and I packed my bag, got dressed and headed out the door.

So I walked down t the train station which was not far from my house. I got there and bought my ticket and hoped on the train. I took a seat until I heard my stop. I heard it and then got off the train. When I got it was as crowded as an ant colony. I followed the pack of people to the stadium which was only a block away. I got to the front gates and the security people checked my bag and then my ticked. I finally got in and found my seat. The game started and I quietly sat there and watched the game. After the last out was made I left my seat and left the stadium, and walked back to the train station. I got back on the train I got on the same train I came on. By then I was tired but I didn’t want to fall asleep and miss my stop. So I waited for my stop as we stopped at all the other ones. I finally heard the conductor say Millbrae so I got off and walked to parking lot where I saw my mom waiting for me. We then drove home and when we got home I felt very proud.

Before that trip I would not think of doing going somewhere that crowded by myself. But after that I felt that I could do that whenever. I felt like I accomplished a mission. Now I am totally comfortable about traveling by myself. I was happy I over came that fear. It also taught me to try new things.

M y experience is a great example of overcoming a fear. Sometimes you will think you won’t like something just be4cause other people didn’t like it. But your opinion cold be totally different than there’s. If you never try new things you won’t experience new things. It is good to see things from different perspectives. Even I f you don’t like something, at least you tried. Most of the time it won’t hurt to try. So if you are unsure or scared of something give it a shot.

Kick off question

I would write about baseball. I would write about it because that is my passion. It is my favorite thing to do and watch. I have been following baseball since I was around 5 years old.

First time I drove a go kart

          One thing that I did that made me feel like I accomplished a feat or cahallenge. Was when I got to drive a go kart by my self. Before I was always to short to be the river. I was an ant in a colony always being left out. It was fun to see the how it is to ride around. But it wasnt the same concept as driving.

          But finally the day came where I got to ride. I was at a miniature golf place where they had go karts. So I checked if I was tall enough to ride, and I was happy as a clam. I waited in line growing more anxious as the line moved. My turn finally came and I took a car in the back. As soon as they said go I was burning rubber. I rode very happily and nervous. I didnt crash or bump anything or anyone. After I came out I felt like a powerful king. i
