Think about your personality and the way people would describe you. Choose two character traits (not physical traits) that could describe you and explain using evidence. Challenge yourself to use good vocabulary when choosing your character traits (i.e. instead of "nice," use "affable"). We will be discussing characters and character traits as we begin our class novel this week.

This was an interesting topic. I had to think for a while. But one trait I thought of was creative. During summers and other parts of the year I have cousins over, or I go to my cousins. But sometimes we don’t know what to do. So often I tend to make up games that we play. Most of the time people like my games, ( just say some were better than others). Also I think of Ideas for games that you choose what to build. The building /other often looks cool in the end. Another trait that describes me is competitive. I say that I don’t like competition. But it is that I don’t want to lose. In competitive games I try to push my team to the limits, I will get bossy (sometimes). But I am just trying to win. I actually enjoyed this blog, I don’t know why!

One character trait that people think I am is that I am funny. I think this because I also think I am funny. Also people say I am funny or laugh at my jokes most of the time. I also try to make class better by saying things that are relatable to me but not actually relatable. If someone says hey to me in the halls I try to say hey back in a funny voice say something funny back.

Everyone has their own character traits, some more than others. Character traits makes us who we are, and how we impact different situations and/or our peers. I, for example would consider myself committed. This character trait specifically because I have always tried my hardest. I have wanted to be a cardiothoracic surgeon for about four or five years now. Since my mom is a cardiac nurse I learn a lot about the heart and about health in general. In the fifth grade, I was new to Jamesville Dewitt Middle School (JDMS). The first test score I received wasn't what I expected. I was from a different school district obviously and their standards were not as high as JD’s were. All those nights of staying up late and reading for hours and studying definitely helped me grow as a student. This is also an example of me being committed, but at the same time it also shows that I am responsible. After that first score I earned, I knew it was MY responsibility to make sure it didn't happen again. Being responsible doesn't always have to do with grades, for instance say you were taking the trash out every week and (if you got paid) at the end of the week you had $10.00. The responsible thing to would be to save it. I know that's not a very good example, but it does show responsibility. I am also very driven in a way. There is always the fact that I want to be a surgeon, so I have to do well. Actually my main reason for being so driven is the because I am Mexican and also a girl. Girls weren't always allowed to go to school, they had to stay home and do house chores. Personally, I find that wrong on so many levels. First of all, we are ALL humans and we should all have the same rights, privileges, and opportunities as one another. Also, why is it the girl that stays home and not the boy? Take a minute and try to answer it. Exactly!! There is no reason that isn't silly. Moving on to the fact that I am Mexican. Mexicans are not praised enough, or even recognized enough for that matter. Well, they are recognized, just not the way they should be. They are always brought down. I know that being Mexican and a girl might be challenging at times, but I also know that staying driven will lead me (or you!!) on the right path.

My friends tell me I am generous,hilarious, and intelligent. I have also been called helpful,kind, and determined. I always try to make everyone feel included whether they are new or just left out. I do is because I know how it feels to be left out. My goal every day is to make people smile. It brings me tons of joy to see smiles on people's faces whether i did it or not. My friends say that I am very caring too. I always will come over and ask if you are okay if you look sad,mad, or depressed. I will always have your back no matter what happens. You can count on me! The main thing that my friends like me is because I heard that I am very fun to hang out with. I will always make boring things seem fun! I love all my friends!

Two character traits that could be used to describe me are, congenial and preposterous. One experience that showed that I was congenial was this past week when there was no room for my friend at the lunch table. So I sat up and went to go sit with my other friends so that she could have a seat at the table. An experience that shows that I am preposterous would be the time that I was at my aunt and uncle’s house for Thanksgiving. Just for reference I have a humongous extended family. My dad had six brothers and six sisters so to say, I have twelve uncles and twelve aunts and over 40 cousins. So as you can imagine Thanksgiving is always quite a jubilee. Since my family in enormous everyone is always hogging the TV, the couch, the food, you name it! Since all of the uncles were huddled on the couch watching football and it was a rainy day, my cousins and I decided to put on a Thanksgiving Special of our own. We didn't have a hard time coming up with a plot, but we had a hard time making it funny and laughable, snd thats where I came in. Jokes were spilling out of my brain by the dozen. After one or two rehearsals it was time to perform! The aunts and uncles loved it and it was a hit! Those are my two stories about my two character traits.

would describe myself as independent. The reason I would call myself independent is because I prefer to work on my own. The way I see it, is you want something done you got to do it yourself. Another reason I’m I prefer to work independent is because if I mess up on a project in a group, I feel really bad. On the other hand if I mess up on a solo project, it’s all on me and it’s up to me to fix it without help. I overall just prefer to work alone rater that in a group. Another character trait to describe me is creative. I am very creative when it comes to projects and I like arts and crafts. Being creative is a fun way to express yourself and it’s fun seeing other people’s opinion on what you created. It is overall really relaxing creating a personal projects and it’s fun!

This weeks blog made me really sit down and have to think for a while about what really are my two best character traits. But after thinking really hard I came up with my two best character traits! My two best character traits are, conscientious and affable. I’m very conscientious about getting my work done and not just doing it to half of my ability but to my full ability. For example when I take a test or write a writing assignment I always check it over multiple times. I am also affable because I always try to say thank you or have a nice day to all my teachers. Also, when there is a new student I always try to wave and introduce myself. For example, a couple years ago a new student came to school and didn't speak much English. So, every time I saw him I would either wave or say hi! These are what I think are my two best character traits.

l have been told that I have multiple traits before but the ones that stuck out the most to me are hilarious and creative. Last year both my art teacher and my ELA teacher called me creative many times.The reason y i love art so much is because i can be as creative as i want, the same goes for poetry i like to try to express myself in different ways. I love to come up with new intriguing ideas to put a spin on things and be very innovative, in ELA i like to take words/sentences and make them more interesting by adding something witty or funny, which brings me to my next point. I love to add humor to everything, i feel that life isn't meant to be serious and even bad situations can be made better by adding some humor. At lunch my friend and I almost always can never stop laughing. I love to laugh and i love to make others laugh, I think that laughing is one of the best feelings.It also will always make u feel better when ur sad.If I could only pick two words to describe myself I would definitely pick creative and hilarious.

I think my personality is a little bit rambunctious at times but it can also be caring and calm when I need to be. I think one of my character traits is affectionate. If see someone having a hard time I will at least try to pick them up and brighten their spirits. Also I'm affectionate at times because one of my friends was having problems and I was there to listen and to give advice. I can also be amusing sometimes because I try to make people laugh and try to find humor whenever I can. I am also determined because I try to do me best in everything I do especially sports and school. I would also describe myself lazy at times because once a while I forget to do my homework or read. Also I am lazy because on the weekends I sleep in very late at times and don’t want to do anything.

This question was hard for me because i just don’t describe myself to others often, and I don’t think of my character traits much. Most of my friends would describe me as competitive. Competitive would be a good character trait for me because when it comes to games, I always want to be first. Usually when someone asks me I just deny it and walk away. A time this showed was when we were playing tug o’ war in fourth grade and i would go full try hard and destroy the other team. Another word to describe me would be hardworking. Hard working would be good for me because when it comes to long term projects, I get started right away. A good time to show this was in fifth grade when I had to do a month long project, and I finished the bulk of the project in a week.

I was asking some of my friends how they would describe me. Some of them said I was very energetic, lively, and just a really happy person. I agree with all of those characteristics, mostly because I'm always really crazy every morning and throughout the day I’m just filled with energy and I’m just always energetic. I am also lively because I love life and I live everyday to the fullest. People always tell me that I smile alot and make them laugh which I love to make people happy, it makes me happy and makes my day better and makes me feel great!

This assignment was interesting to think about. I was kind of stumped so I asked some of my friends. Megan said I was very determined in what I do. I was very excited to hear this from her. She said I never finish something halfway. I am always wide awake and dynamical. I am usually the most awake of my friends. I also asked Maci and she said I am very helpful. Sometimes I help my friends with homework or help them study for a quiz if they need some help. I asked my family what thought and they said I am intelligent. My homework is always completed and in my best work.

There are many words i could use to characterize myself. I can lie sometimes to my parents which is being misleading. I would only lie to my parents because i wouldn’t want them to get mad at me. Especially my dad because when he gets mad i get very very frightened. I am also very polite and kind to my friends and when i go to a friend’s house. I am polite and kind because that’s how my parents taught me and it would just be plain rude if you don’t have manners. And last but not least i am very athletic because i love sports, mostly basketball and baseball in general, also i love playing them. But at first i wasn’t very good at basketball or baseball and when i went to special trainers i got a lot better because i persevered and wanted to get better

I think that lots of people would describe me as organized and responsible. I am organized, because I always have certain things arranged in certain ways, and I almost never forget anything, because I have a list of self-reminders that helps me stay organized. My list of reminders even includes many reminders about homework. I am responsible, because after school, I get home at about 3:07. I have a snack until about 3:15, and then I complete all of my homework, even if it’s not due the next day (I don’t procrastinate). I also write every homework assignment down in my planner within about a minute of it being assigned, and I put it in my homework binder immediately. Even for big projects that are due in weeks, I get them done very early so I can get them out of the way. Most people would describe me as organized and responsible.

When this topic came up I was not sure how to describe myself therefore I asked my friends and family what they thought. My friends describe me as a very outgoing, enthusiastic, supportive human being. In 5th grade I won the most enthusiastic award because I was always very peppy and ready to do anything even if was the state test. My friend had a birthday party and we were suppose to dress up. I went all out and tried so many different ways to put my costume together so it would look exactly how I wanted it to. When it comes to being supportive I guess I do whatever a supportive friend that cares would do. I cheer my friends on when they have a game, and tell them it's ok not they didn't win. At least they tried and had a good time doing it. Whenever my brother has a hockey game I always cheer him on even though he may not be the best player, and the rink is freezing cold. I will always help someone if they need it and make the worst times feel like the best moments.

I like to think of myself as funny and loving (to my dog. Not to the humans who give me food and shelter. Only my dog, NOT THEM). I think I am loving, because, well how could I not love my dog. She is a 9 year old black lab pitbull mix named luna, and she is the sweetest thing. Sometimes when I’m sitting on my couch she will crawl onto my lap ( she’s about 60 so it can be kind-of uncomfortable) and refuse to move until I pet her. If I don’t she will start licking me in the face. I am funny, because on the bus/at school, and at my house I like to tell jokes usually they are funny, but sometimes I just sound weird. The 2 character traits I think of myself are loving, because I love my dog Luna (Not the humans). And funny, because I can make people laugh.

Have you ever thought about what character traits people associate you with, or what kind of person others think you are? I have also asked myself that question, and thought about what traits I possess. I believe that I am a good leader, for many reasons. One reason is that I am able to work with a group very well. I can lead the group but not come off as arrogant or controlling. For instance, in my Sixth grade Science class, we were met with the task of group projects on many occasions. I always shared my ideas, and also listened to other people’s ideas, a skill that I was able to improve on throughout the year. Leaders are needed everywhere and they make things happen.

I don't think I've told you, but I noticed on the first day of school that you are a good leader, just as you mention in your blog post here. I had directions on the board to figure out the seating chart and many of your classmates weren't sure where to begin. I sat back and observed what was happening and lo and behold, Mikey began organizing and directing his classmates to their seats. Never once did you ask me if you were right or for any clarification. Glad to know that you can recognize this about yourself as well!

When I first heard about this assignment I was intrigued and I was kind of anxious. I had no idea what my character traits are. After a lot of thinking about what my character traits were, I asked some of my friends. And, of course, knowing my friends, they gave me some ridiculous answers(crazy, weird, etc) so after that, I needed to ask someone else, and get new friends(just kidding). I asked my family, and they said I’m creative, and compassionate. I am creative because, when I see my cousins from New Jersey, we always end up creating and filming a movie. Also, when they come to my grandma’s house, we will sometimes play office with the office materials that my grandmother lets us use. Lastly at our laker house on Skaneateles, we have a shed/ cabana type thing. All the cousins have turned that into a club house. We have lots of homemade posters and chairs and it looks super cool. I’m compassionate because I always think of everyone. When a holiday comes around I always make cards and send them to everybody. On Christmas, I always make some sort of homemade gift (its not always that good, but its the thought that counts.) Also, at school when there is a time that we partner up, I try to partner with someone that’s usually alone. I take all my traits seriously, because this is the best me I can be, and I always want to be that person.

Everyone is different in their weird and unique way but what I love is that no one is like me,and we all have our own character traits. My character traits are attentiveness and being energetic.These character traits are what my friends and family think of when they are describing me. People call me attentive because even though I don’t know if someone is hurting or just in a difficult place in life,I always go and give people hugs or just lean on their shoulder. Sometimes I even say “do you know that I love you.” That just cheers them up and makes them feel really loved,but some people don’t notice at that moment that they needed that hug or that lean on the shoulder. My other character trait is being very energetic.My fellow peers say this because whenever I walk in a room and say “Hi!” people just feel so happy and full of energy. Some people even say that I am a “Ball of energy.” My smile even lights up a room. Overall I feel like most of my friends and family would most likely say what I said about myself.I know that people have a whole lot of different traits about themselves,but the ones that I just described our mine.

I’ve heard a lot of things about myself, some good and some bad...I guess that happens to everyone. But what I think describes me the most, is clumsy and witty. I’m very clumsy considering I get many, many bruises not even aware of when or how I got them. Whenever I do something harmless, is never ends well. One example is that I have a black eye in my family Christmas card that was sent to everybody we know. Somehow, I had managed to walk into my door and it left a very significant mark all around my eye. Another example is that I have broken the same finger twice. Once was in fifth grade, when I accidentally slammed it in a locker. The other time, I was in first grade and I got my finger smashed between two rocks.

Personally I think that one of my character traits is comical. Comical means “AMUSING”. One of the reasons that comical is one of my character traits is because I am frequently told that I am amusing by friends and family. Another reason that I am comical is that I love trying to amuse others, whether it's by telling a joke, doing a magic trick, or just playing sports… Being comical is definitely one of my character traits.

I don’t want to be the type of person who is full of themselves and tells everyone that they are the most caring and intelligent person. I can modestly describe myself as a comical person. I am quite ludicrous most time which makes for amusing situations. Sometimes I am not trying to be funny, but I’ll make myself laugh and nobody else. Not everyone gets all of my jokes. Getting a laugh is usually in the 50% range which is a good overall joke related statistic. Walking into poles, walls and unsuspecting people, etc. could define me as a clumsy being in general. More proof? Well I dropped my “glass” and metal water bottle in the middle of the sixth grade hallway. It broke into at least 1,000 pieces! If you go back there, I bet that there is still some glass shards still lurking in the corners. This is who I am and only two of the several character traits to describe me.

Hello, EVERYBODY! This is a new blog post for you! I believe that one of my main character traits artistically whimsical (synonyms for creative and imaginative).I day-dream when I’m bored, dream random dreams at night, and invision masterpieces of unexplainable awesomeness! Some source ( Lily B. ) said that I am caring, and I think I am too. I care for my friends, family, pets, school work, teachers, and most importantly me! I like to check in if people don’t seem ok. I am very clumsy so I am always willing to lend a band-aid! Also, I am told I’m a leader. I excel with others and work well under pressure. I manage and take in all opinions. My sister described me as silly, but that is boring. So, I found these synonyms: crazy, ridiculous, and immature. I love to let go and go bananas!!!! I enjoy hanging out and laughing until I can’t breathe! These are some of the main character traits I have been told that I have and believe to. Thanks for reading my blog post!

If I were to use two character traits to describe myself I would say, positive and courageous. I am positive because you can always find a smile on my face and I enjoy bringing other people happiness. I love spreading positivity to everyone I meet and it makes me very joyful to brighten someone’s day. Even when times are tough, I would be one to light up the room. Laughter in myself and others is one of the best parts of my day. Positivity comes easy to me in my day to day life. I would also be described as courageous because taking risks and going on grand adventures are two important aspects of my life. Trying new things is also very important because you’ll never know what you enjoy until you try it. I’ve always lived by the words, “Nothing is impossible.” Being courageous and positive are big parts of who I am, and who I aspire to be and I’d never be the same without them.

There are many words I could use to characterize myself. I could lie and say that I’m perfect in every way but, we all know that's not true. So, the first word I would use to describe myself is flawed. I make mistakes. Some that hurt others and some that just make things more challenging for me. Most of the time I can get away with my errors but, other times they just blow up in my face. For example, when I was younger, in about 1st or 2nd grade I decided to bring nail polish to school even though my mom told me not to. When she asked what was in my sweater pocket I just replied, a crayon. Now, I realize that she probably knew I was lying from the start but, was just waiting for me to tell the truth. Unfortunately, I never thought to do so and at the end of the day, all my lies crashed in burned right in front of me. Next thing I knew I was in my room for a week. Lesson learned.

This was a topic that I had to think about. For one I think I’m polite. For an example when we are at a restaurant or even at my house I always say please and thank you. Another example is when an elderly or anyone in general I hold the door for them. I also asked my parents what my character traits were and they both said polite. My parents helped me with that trait a lot. When I was younger they almost always were working on my manners and still is today.

There are many traits that people describe me but there are two that I have gotten and I think it fits my personality. The first trait is empathetic. People say I am empathetic because when people are having a bad day, I will go up and ask them if anything is wrong and I will always help them through what was going on. I always try to give support for those who need it know matter what is know matter how small or big the problem is. Another trait that people tend to call me is affectionate because I love my friends and family very much and I would never want anything bad to happen to them. I always try to find the good in things and express how I feel to them. There is always a way to make someone feel better and sometimes people need someone to lift their spirits and that's what I am here to do.

As I heard about this assignment I thought of the things I could do, how I wanted people to see me or who I actually am. I thought about it and choose who I really am. People think of me as an upbeat person. I like it when everyone is happy. I do get upset sometimes but most of the time i’m a happy person. My brothers would call me significant, I always help them with things like cleaning their room and keeping themselves together. My brothers and I spend a lot of time together and we make eachother laugh. I think maybe my teachers would think of me as cheerful because I smile a lot. My friends think of me as an empathetic person. I care a lot about how other people feel because I have been there alot and I don't think other people should have to. I try to make everyone feel important and hope it works and other people try too. I usually am the person that can tell if someone isn’t okay or glum. Overall I am an upbeat, significant, cheerful and empathetic person.

Most people would probably describe me as quirky or a little bit crazy. The typical person would most likely be offended by this, but I on the other hand take it as a compliment. I have always been more of a weird person and I have only become weirder as the days go on. (Like I swear i’m going crazy). An example of me being weird is talking to animals all the time or saying things or making noises that sound no where close to english, or any language for that matter. I also say weird things just to make people confused. People might also say that i’m adventurous, fearless, or dauntless. Some reasons a person might say this is because I always like to try new things without really thinking about the consequences or things that could happen to me if I did. I also like to go my own way like going of trail in the woods just to explore more.

There are many ways I or other people could describe myself. I think that I am brave. and you could use the word brave a billion different ways! Over the summer I went to the fair and there was this huge roller coaster that I was afraid of. I ended up going on the ride and it wasn’t that bad. I also think that I am honest. I cannot stand when I lie. It makes me feel terrible so I end up telling the truth. I think I could describe myself in other ways but these two stand out!

Two character traits that could be used to describe me are responsible and friendly. I have shown responsibility many times before. I take responsibility to complete my homework on time. Also, by gaining knowledge and studying properly for a bright future. Other times that I have shown that i am responsible is when I have taken my homework on vacation with me if a miss school or when I strive to improve piano and violin by consistently practicing. Another character trait that I have is friendliness. I am usually smiley and cheerful. I want people to feel as comfortable as possible and I usually make new friends during new experiences or adventures. In addition, I am ready to help someone when they need support. I am able to get along with just about everyone I meet whether it is at school or in my personal life.

I think that people would describe me as committed and caring. I always try my best and I am a perfectionist. My parents always have to tell me nothing is perfect and Emma always sings the Hannah Montana song, “Nobody’s Perfect”, to me. I am committed in school. I always try to be the best I can be on the basketball court, in dance, and in the orchestra room. I am caring because if somebody gets hurt I always try to help them even if they say they don’t need help. I alway ask people if they are okay if they are crying. Also, I am always there when my friend or anybody has a rough day. I enjoy helping people. When I help someone it makes me happy. I am always willing to help anyone in need. I also love helping animals. Once there was a baby deer hiding in our bushes waiting for her mom. The mom was across the street, but couldn’t get across because we live on a busy street. I felt so bad so I sat right next to my window all night to make sure that the mom got to her mom. It was so great to see them reunited. My friends all say that I am so tough. Although, I’m not as tough as I seem. I always feel bad when someone else feels bad. I think that anyone who knew me would agree that I am committed and caring. I always live by these character traits and always will.

Two personality traits and the way people would describe me.One word character trait that is unique about me is i am funny i think this because when i am around classmate or friends i cause laughter or amusement.When i do they laugh so hard their faces are almost read as a apple. Another reason I think i am funny is because when i also tell them jokes there on the floor or knees crying out laughter.Another personality and the way people would describe me is i am always so active.I think i am active because i always doing every week for example i play soccer with friends on the field.Or when i have games and practice on saturday for summer and spring.Anther reason i think i am pretty active is in gym in the middle school we have to run the mile and try to beat our previous time.

Happy, funny, brave, loving, and caring those are many character traits. I am very helpful because I like to hand out paper in school. At home, I enjoy helping my mom clean. Helping can make someone feel pleased. And helping someone will brighten up their day. Another character trait that describes me is funny. I am very fun because I don't like it when everyone is sad because it feels like the sun never came up. And people say I am very funny.

I am a very passionate person. For example, I have a great passion for music. I play piano, percussion, self-taught guitar, I sing in school chorus along with the Syracuse Children’s Chorus, and I often find myself writing my own music. I put my heart into all of these activities, and enjoy them thoroughly. I am also creative. Since I was little I’ve always loved to create things, including building many three-dimensional objects. I love to write and draw, and since fifth grade I’ve had a strong idea of what I want my future career to be: architecture. One of the parts of the application process to get into the S.U. architecture school is to create twenty pieces of original art. In order to be an architect you not only have to be a skilled mathematician, but you must be creative. During sixth grade I wrote the beginning six chapters (twenty-four pages) of a story with my friend Madie, in addition to many other writing pieces. Being passionate and creative are two of my many character traits.

Some people describe me as kind and energetic. I think that both are right because I like to help people and thank them for something they did for me. Also in classes i can’t stay still and sort of drift off every once and awhile. I love animals and like helping them out and I try to race my dog up and down the steps. Sometimes I buy friends and my brother stuff when they are over. (my brother is always over)

Two character traits that I think best describe me are dedicated and silly. I think dedicated describes me well because, for example, I have participated in Nanowrimo (which stands for National Novel Writing Month) for the last two years. This means that for the last two Novembers, I have successfully created a novel (reaching from 15,000 words to 25,000 words). Even though I might have been busy a couple of days during those Novembers, I still stayed dedicated to my goal and managed to persevere and finish my novel by the end of the month. The other character trait that I think describes me well is silly. An example that I think backs it up well is that last year, my friend Lily and I were working on a story together on Google Docs. She was typing in “okay” but she accidentally typed in “oaky”. I thought it was hilarious and from then on I never used the word okay again with her. Instead I said “oaky”. Also, I NEVER use the word confusing, instead I just use the word confuzzling. These are the reasons why I think that dedicated and silly describe me well.

Wow! What a feat to have participated in Nanowrimo for two years already! I was very intrigued by this a few years ago and had some students try it out in 7th grade. I would love to hear more about the novels you've written and the one you're currently (or soon to be...) writing.

I believe that two traits people call me is intellectual and humorous. Why people would call me intellectuel is because i love puzzles riddles and challenging myself. At a summer camp my cabin mates and I told riddles and I would Know the answer to almost all of them. Another reason people would call me intellectuel is because I get good grades in my classes especially science social studies and math. Games with puzzles always fascinated me like king's quest or broken age.

This assignment gave me a lot to think about due to its unique nature. One may describe me as an aggressive perfectionist and a bit bossy. One may also describe me as clumsy yet intelligent.

When I was first given this assignment, I didn’t know what to say so i asked some of my friends and family and they said they would probably describe me as empathetic, cheerful and hysterical. That’s also how I would describe myself. People would describe me as empathetic because whenever I see someone that seems sad or of someone is being mean to them, I always try my best to make them feel better. My friends say that I am always cheerful and that I am hysterical. They also say that I never fail to make them laugh or put a smile on their face. I love being cheerful and funny because when my friends and family laugh and smile it makes feel so happy! I think that it always good to think about others happiness because when you make someone happy, you will probably feel happy too. I am so glad that these are some of the character traits that I live by and the way people see me.

Everybody has their own unique character traits that impact how we live. At first glance some people may see me as “hardworking” (which I am) but a lot of people don’t see the lazy side of me. My lazy side can be quite good but sometimes it is just unbearable. See, I could be doing homework for one second, check my phone for a text message and then end up being glued to my phone for the rest of the day. As you can see, my lazy side may have lots of cons to it, but there is one thing about it that is great about it. The one advantage of my laziness is i know when to take a break and it usually helps me to not stress. (not that I’m a stressful person) Some other character traits that i have been called before are quiet or shy, which I can be (typically when I’m around strangers, or just trying to concentrate) but I usually am not. A better character trait for me would be determined. I would describe myself as determined because whenever I do anything no matter how hard it is to do I stick with it. My determination can be my best friend or worst enemy at times, such as when being faced in a tough situation, my determination will help me push through it.

One character trait that I would use to describe myself is understanding. I say this, because even if I’m not very fond of someone, I’ll still listen to what they have to say. Just recently over the Summer, my friends and I had a situation with someone on Instagram. They threatened to release our phone numbers, but I still took the time to listen. They actually had a lot going on in their life, so I understood where they were coming from. Another character trait I’d use to describe myself is Imaginative. When I was little, I would always create these role play games. I would take on a persona and my friend would take on another one. Now, I like to create stories in my head and sometimes I’ll put them down on paper.

So this week we are talking about character/personality traits, and i think i have two that are pretty obvious, at least, i think i am an intelligent kid. Also, i think i am fairly supportive to my friends and my family. In school i know a lot about the topics that we discuss. Also i am supportive during activities, when, lets say a kid needs help with something i would gladly help that kid in need. Also i think that i can be pretty gullible, when i hear something that sounds convincing, people can take advantage of me. (Usually for using me as a dictionary or for fantasy football advice.) when going to a formal event i can act pretty spiffy, i act, dress and sometimes even talk that way, honestly, i hate when i do that. So when you read my blog response, you will know a little more about me, Gabe Collins.

One character trait people would describe me as is funny.I also think i'm funny. I always make myself and other people laugh. Another character trait is Energetic. I'm always very energetic i'm always moving during sports and even not during sports. Im also talkative. I always have something to say and will never stop. I think i should be less talkative especially during class because i distract others. Im also very Picky especially about food. I only will eat certain foods and drink certain drinks. Also if it looks weird i'm not eating it.

I think that my character traits are easy to figure out. You could spend about 10 minutes with me and figure out that I’m whimsical or that I’m debonair (confident, stylish, and charming i don’t know about the last one though). My humor usually comes out in the school day or at my own house even. My friends in and out of school think that i have some sort of humor or hilarious. I make jokes out of what my teacher says. My style of clothing is pretty different from other boys in my grade. Most boys just wear like shorts and a T-shirt most of the time, but I feel like I’m one of the people who get what fashion is. I take pride for what i wear or how i act in school or out of school.For my one hundred and fiftieth word or phrase is whimsical.

I like this topic, I find it interesting. I would say I’m athletic. I have been playing soccer since I was six, and now I’m playing modified soccer. Basketball is my favorite sport that I play, I’ve been playing since I was seven and I have a travel team called the Lyndon Lynx with a bunch of my friends. I used to swim for Syracuse Chargers gold team for about 2 years. I enjoy lacrosse and I’ve been playing since I was eight. I enjoy playing sports and watching sports so much, it’s a huge and great part of my life. My friends have told me that I am good humored. Whenever they are sad, they said they can come to me and I will make the laugh and they will feel better. I feel very lucky to have friends that think of me like that, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world!

When I first look at the assignment for this week I didn’t really have an answer so I asked some of my friends. A lot of them said I am nice, which I am, but I don’t think that’s what stands out when people meet me. So I asked my sisters what they think my character traits are. They told me I am responsible and passionate, and I agree with this. One way I am responsible is that I have soccer five times a week, basketball three times a week and on top of that school. So I have to plan out when I will do my homework, study, and read. One way I am passionate is when I have basketball and soccer games I am one of the loudest people cheering on the bench and when people come off the field or court I give them a high five and tell them they did an amazing job. These are two characteristics that stand out in me.

This is an interesting topic.. I asked both my parents and they both had a word about me… my mom said i'm friendly and respectful and my dad said i'm responsible and honest. I'm very friendly when it comes to meeting our saying hello to adults. Everytime my mom has a friend or company over i always go up to them and greet them and have a nice conversation. Im also very responsible in many different ways, one way i'm responsible is when it comes to taking care of my dogs… i always refill their water bowls and food bowls without my parents telling me to, i also let the dogs out when they need to go “potty”. Another reason i'm responsible is the topic of a phone.. I had a nice video convincing my parents on why i should have a phone. It included many different and interesting things such as how i can be responsible… i have learned my own and my older siblings mistakes and way more that i could have included. These are some ways and reason describing me!!

One trait that people tell me that I have is determined because I always try my best and or finish any task that someone gives me. For example during football practice we have to do 10 sprints but even though i was gasping for air I still pushed myself to finish strong because I knew we had a water break right after.

I am often told I am Very kind.I help and or support my friends when it is needed.I often like to goof or joke around with my friends.I am comical at sometimes.For example my now famous quote on Mrs.Stllintano’s board “Just dig a hole or something”.I like to play sports.I play football and basketball I did do baseball and if you count boxing and MMA as sports than those are two others.I am very very competitive.I once cried during our lost in the championship game in football.We had a fantastic season including beating the undefeated cowboys.I did get ejected from the game for punching a kid but i was just a little frustrated and short tempered.In basketball we were in our final game of the season and we were down 5 players and I fouled out and I was determined to at least have our team only lose by 15 points I even went to ask my coach if we could do some plays to score points.

Hey its Kamiyah here again this is my first year in jdms i’ll admit when i first came here i was nervous and i still am but i made some new friends in the past 2 weeks some character traits that are about myself that made me make some friend are being humorous and using kindness. I used humor to make my friends laugh so we can all have a good time and i used kindness to get the friend without those 2 character traits i would have no friend at all. I really miss my friends at my old school alote but sometime you just have to take a breather and make new ones.Another way of descibing me in humorous and kindness is that i use humor and kindness at the same time when a friend is hurt or depressed. I use humor to get the person to feel happy and kindness to make the person forget what made them sad.In Conclusion my character trait is kindness and humor.

The Qoute “Words have power read a banned book” says a lot because a book can talk about serious things like transgender people, some people might be dislike transgender people so you have to show people that you're wrong and stand up what you believe.There is a banned book week to celebrate the freedom of reading. We celebrate controversial books because they are different. Yes it is important to have a chose in what you read because some people want to learn about things going on in the world or that was going on in the world. Yes I have readed a banned book. I believe that you should go against people and read a banned book because it is not going to hurt you.

I think people would call me funny a and not orgazins. The reason people would call me funny is because I like fool around. Also say movie quotes. I also tell riddle and jokes to my friends and brother. Our show funny videos to my brothers and friends. I also make some one day every now and they. That why people could call me funny. Some people call not organized because my planner not always or organized. I also don’t carry phone everywhere so mom is not able to call me where i go. Also don’t plan things at all. But every now and then I choose were go for dinner. I also and a little organized when i planned my birthday but I don’t have party any more. But never get choose clothes for vacation because me makes me wear making clothes and that so annoying. That why people call me funny and not organized.
