Welcome Ms. Carroll

Welcome to Herbert Hoover Middle School Ms.Carroll. You are in for a surprise from your new students. MY name is Jayden. I am the oldest one in my family and the one my brothers and younger cousins look up to. I am from James Monroe Elementary School. I like to play video games, ride my bike, and play football with my friends. I get driven to school by my parents. I like middle school because I get to work with friends I don't see in other classes. Also, I like how we switch classes so the day goes by really fast.And this makes the school year go by faster. I work hard but I am a chatterbox which sometimes gets me into trouble. I hate homework, so please try to keep it to a minimal. I like English because it is easy and helps you a lot. I like doing vocab before tests and using the computers. I hope you enjoy teaching us.

Career Goals for Me

In only six more years I will be planning on which career I choose to pursue and college to attend. I've always had my eye on becoming an FBI agent. From the very beginning I hated the idea of sitting in an office cubical and punching numbers into a computer for 10 hours a day.I want to play my part in society and keep people safe. I like this job because it fits my talents. I would help investigate the scene of a crime since I'm good at science and math.
            I want to go to college at Harvard or Rutgers University. These are both great colleges, especially the prestigious Harvard.At one pf these schools I would major in Law and get either a Bachelor's or Master's degree Since one of these is required for my job. 
             I hope I can get a job here in New Jersey. I have lived in New Jersey all my life and wouldn't like to live anywhere else ( accept Hawaii).
            Even with college seems very far away, with hard work and determination I can achieve my goal.

My Resolutions

The start of the new year is a great time to contemplate what you plan to do with yourself in the coming year. This year the resolution I plan to work on is becoming more organized. This is my main resolution because I hate losing things.  I often become extremely stressed trying to locate important things that I have misplaced; this tends to happen more than I would like with my schoolwork.  My plan to become more organized is to make a list of my things and keep track of where they are. If I can  can keep up with this, then I will be on the road to making my life much easier.

Steroids Just Aren’t worth I t


An anonymous player says that about 40 percent of NFL players use steroids. This is a big percent of players. Steroids have many health risks that come along with prolonged use. Steroids are bad and are not worth using.
            As said before steroids have many health risks that come with their use. Some of these health risks include severe acne, an increase in bad cholesterol, possible development of tumors in the kidney and liver, and a premature stop to bone growth and lengthening. Yet, football players still use steroids despite these risks. Athletes who use steroids are foolish. They should be more concerned about their own health rather than their sports career.
            Steroids give an unfair advantage to any athlete who uses them. Having an advantage over someone while you legitimately gained it is perfectly fine. Gaining it by using a growth drug is wrong. Sports are about honest competition between players, using drugs to increase your ability just utterly ruins the sport. Honest competition has no meaning anymore if athletes are willing to use growth drugs. Using drugs for self improvement in competition is selfish.
            Steroids are an illegal substance in the United States. Athletes still use steroids even though the United States government has declared them illegal. Steroids give them enhanced ability but use can be prevented by more often screenings. If caught using steroids athletes should be kicked out of their sport and face criminal charges. And they should not be allowed back in to their league.
            Steroids are an illegal substance and bring with them many health risks upon their use. Any athlete caught using steroids should face severe and criminal consequences upon being caught. Anyone who does use them is a fool. Steroids are wrong and should never be used no matter what.

Christmas Music

Everyone knows that when you hear Christmas music you know the holiday is near. When you hear this you better start shopping for gifts. Christmas music is always a sign to be prepared to have a good time with family. Christmas music is very cheerful and warms you up inside so much. But, after a while it gets a little annoying
 hearing it all.
      I love the holidays. They are a time of love, joy, and happiness. No other holiday shows this more than Christmas. Christmas has many characteristics... trees, decorations, presents, and music. Christmas music is sweet and catchy and you should always play it. It's a great way to show your spirit. Just don't over do it. This happens all the time. People start playing holiday music way before they should. And in my family they play it over and over again. This applies not only to holidays. Holiday music should bring warmth to your heart, not annoy the heck out of you. It may seem OK to some people to play the music so much but to most it is annoying. So if you play holiday music go ahead with it, just take into mind other people.
