***MY MELISSA***

Is it me or does it seem like as soon as it gets cold outside cars wanna start actin up??? I got a saturn for my birthday last year (December) and my parents kept saying the dealership said everything had been checked and that everything was fine. Last Tuesday i was takin my sis and my niece to the city. I parked my car on the street where she lives. We went in her apartment for aboout 30 minutes. After i came out, i went to reverse out of the parking place my car wouldnt reverse. I had to put the car in reverse, press the gas, then the brake then it jerked and reversed. My sis got in the car and i went through this sequence again. She immediately said i was haveing "transmission trouble." Not being able to reverse, i get back on the expressway and take it to autozone because the "service engine soon" light came on. Autozone hooked it up to a machine that said i either needed some transmission fluid or a new transmission. The guy checked my trans fluid and said it was clean and full so that only left one thing.......TRANSMISSION TROUBLE!!!! I called my dad and told him and he called his mechanic. His mechanic came to pick it up Wednesday and has had it ever since. TODAY IS WEDNESDAY OF THE FOLLOWING WEEK AND I STILL HAVE NO CAR!!!!! Imagine my fristration right now to be a teenager without their car...... :( :( :(
P.S. My car's name is Mellissa Dejon

***SENIOR CLASS PRESIDENT BLUES***

So when i first ran for senior class president i was not aware that it entailed this much headache! Perhaps if i step back and allow things to play themselves out i will have a better understanding of what to do next. Before anyone can wrongly accuse in any situation they must first be sure that everyone involved in the situation knows all that he or she needs to know. Because this job is not easy i must learn to overcome the odds and do my job no matter who else involved slacks off or points fingers. I want my senor class to have the best year possible which is my main goal from start to finish. However it seems as though some ppl have lost sight of that same goal!!! Not only will i continue to strive to make my fellow seniors happy, but i will also stick to my morals and do my job no matter what! Its not as if its easy with everything else thats goin on right now, but i will do my best to keep balanced because it means a lot to me that senior year is year all of the class of 2010 will remember for years to come. Things are starting off slower than a slug right now (LITERALY) but nonetheless i hope to have enough time to make the memories everyone of us wants!!!!

Today's lesson is: No matter what other ppl say to you or behind your back, continue to do your job and never let them get you to a point where you want to quit or even rethink doing your job to the best of your ability!!!!!!
