Junior Blog Day 9: changes
1. The Last Year:
School's almost out, so I want you to think: what would you have done differently, if you could? Consider things that have happened to you and choose something that you would change. What was the "old" result? What would the new result have been?
If there is nothing you would change, then why wouldn't you? Are things that good now? (If so, cool, but write about it just the same).

2. Continue reading and commenting on others' blogs

Blogs day 4
FIRST: Fill out the following survey:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Diamondstudents
my number is 103
If you could be on any television program what would it be? Think of terms of plot, characters, reality vs scripted, stars. Some people might want to be on Survivor or Real World, while others might enjoy Duck Dynasty, Mythbusters, Ghost Hunters or Deadliest Catch. You could even imagine yourself as an un-yet named character on Grimm or Once Upon a Time. Or maybe you could just have a role on a show like CSI or Big Bang Theory.
1. Name the show and or character
