Evidence: Quote from my daughter Charley: "My mom is the best mommy in the whole world! She always plays with me, feeds me, and she snuggles with me every night!"  (Pathos)

Hard Evidence (Logos): I taught 124 students how to write a literary analysis first semester after reading Of Mice and Men with all of them! 

Anecdote: Last year, I gave birth to my daughter, and for that, I feel anyone who does that deserves to get what they want for Christmas!

A statement my sister made was "Emily is so hardworking, she helps around the house with dishes, laundry, the dog and guinea pigs as well as her own needs. She stresses over school and working with theater and still manages to get everything complete." 

As difficult as it is to focus in school, I manage to keep up my grades in all my classes, including an additional class with zero hour, and learn my lines and choreography for not only the musical, but now on the play. 

I am not asking for a lot, I am a simple child with simple needs, I only ask for a little bit of spicy food, please and thank you.]]> 2022-01-12 15:34:27 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988493741 Analisy Frutos https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988494047  a gift I didn't get was a dog. we had a dog before but he passed away and I've been asking my parents to get me one. i think i deserve the dog because I've always done everything i had to do, I'm a student athlete i do all my school work and get good grades but I never get a dog. my dad acted like he didn't like our last dog but in reality he really did love him. i told my sister to get a dog for her 10 month old baby and then just give it to me, she said she might do that. But who knows maybe they want to surprise me with one for my birthday or maybe i just keep asking and hopefully they say yes. ]]> 2022-01-12 15:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988494047 Ivan R. reseniva000_2 https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988512027 For Christmas I was hoping I'd get a pay raise. But I guess some other Christmas

Quote: A quote from my supervisor Chris: " Can you close today?" I here those words a lot since I'm the only human who likes closing at my job so when ever they ask 90% of time I say yes.

Also the amount of overtime I tend to accumulate is insane. I am one of their most dependable workers at least top 10 and I'm always ready for what ever they need me to do. Whether it be get boxes from the back or facing items I am ready to do what ever they need me to do. Since I need this money for college. ]]> 2022-01-12 15:42:27 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988512027 Diego Nava https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988513386 For Christmas I really wanted a PS5 but never got one even though I definitely deserved it. 
Quote from my brother: "I even feel like he deserved it, I'm mostly saying this though because I also want it."
Evidence- This whole year I did my best especially in the second semester of school. I tried extra hard with whatever my parents needed in the house, especially when it came to economic problems with my dad and being his translator since he isn't the best English speaker.  
Anecdote- I basically did everything i was told to so I feel like this isn't too much to ask for.

(Logos) - I do all my chores everyday without being asked to do so and I always help my parents whenever they need help.

(Pathos) - I feel like I deserve that VR. Being a teen is very stressful and I have to deal with a lot of work so that is why I feel like I deserve it.

A quote I hear said by adults in my life when they talk about me is "He's one of the smartest, most quiet and humble kids I have ever met" Which that alone should be a good enough reason, to why I deserved a dog for this past Christmas.
I was also able to keep up a 3.5 gpa last semester, while playing football in the fall at the same time. Which was very difficult but I was able to do it.
Also anytime anyone in my family needs someone to watch their dog, I'm always the first one they ask because they know how much I enjoy being around dogs. and they also see how good I take care of them. Just showing how good I would take care of a dog if I had gotten one for Christmas, which sadly, didn't happen this year:(

I've had 3  surgery's in the past year. 

Also if  I have another surgery the keyboard would keep me entertain in the period of time my recovery would take  and not have me be in my room for a week an a half sleeping all day. 

Although the constant doctor visits I've had to go to which causes missing school days I think I have done a good job in keeping up in school and having good grades.

I have to go to school for 10 months out of the year and deal with 5 different teachers that each do things differently and all give there students a lot of work. I have to do my work keep my grade up and pass finals twice every year. I have to do all of that at in school while wearing a mask that will hardly let anybody breathe. I do what I have to do at home and school. Hopefully one day I get them even if I spend my money on them I will get them eventually.

Logos: I've taken care of my sister for as long as I can remember so i think a puppy is well deserved

Pathos: dogs are like puppy's they need as much care, i love taking care of little kids their funny and adorable so it wouldn't be any different with a puppy.

I believe I should've received this gift for a few reasons, I do well with passing in school, I do whatever my parents tell me to do, and I'm always doing what I need to do.

I've been asking for this gift for a while now and I still haven't gotten it, I do have an acoustic guitar but I really wanted an electric since it sounds way better and I'm really into rock music and I'd love to play some songs I like!

I feel like I should've got this gift since my parents know I play guitar and how much I love music, hopefully they get me one next year, or ill just get it myself!

A statement my brother said was "Jennifer is really responsible and always helps with things even if she has school, she has long days but she always completes everything."

My job is school and I always manage to keep good grades and focus 5 days a week not only school but also my home responsibilities.

A statement form my sister's were " Jonathan deserves to rest, he does his homework he always helps around the house when asked and always takes out the trash by himself."

I always maintained my grades B's A's during first semester and finish the work I'm given.

I wanted a ps5 because when I'm bored I can go to my room and just play my ps5 with my friends. Ever since the ps5 came out I have been wanting it because it is the newest game system.

I Have been recording music on my phone for the past 3 years. If you know anything about production and engineering than you would know that this isn't a great way to record. I need to record music it keeps me sane and helps me stay calm. My phone isn't giving what it's supposed to give.

When I was on youtube once I seen a famous artist give pros and cons on different ways to record unfortunately the way I record was considered to be the worst option.

I deserve it because I do what I'm suppose to do regardless of how I feel about it I follow directions given to me. 

I also sacrifice a lot to help others and I feel that should be rewarded.

Evidence: I kinda already had those but the ones I got were smaller which is fine but I love my bigger pipe cleaners because they were not actually used for cleaning pipes, they were actually used for all types of art, I could create almost about anything out of these pipe cleaners, I could make a perfect flower out of them.

Evidence 2: First semester I had 5 A's and 1 B because I worked really hard in my classes, getting help from other teachers, studied for tests with my study guide, and participated in every subject in my classes. (Logos)

Evidence 3: I remember to throw out the garbage without having my mom to tell me because I am smart enough to do my chores in the house, and because of that I feel like it's a nice thing and you can get any present you want for christmas.]]> 2022-01-12 16:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988663980 Natalia Platero https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988665498 This year for Christmas I wanted a pet rabbit but I didn't get one even though I deserved it.

Evidence:  According to my sister to why I deserved a pet, "Natalia does well in school and if she's falling behind she focuses hard on trying to catch up."

Evidence (Logos): I have younger siblings and I help my mom take care of them when she's busy so taking care of a pet rabbit won't be as difficult since the responsibilities aren't new to me.

Anecdote: This school year hasn't been easy. Therefore, I've been working hard on getting good grades and doing what I'm supposed to do. Therefore, accounting for my handwork I do deserve getting a pet rabbit since it's what I wanted. ]]> 2022-01-12 16:47:48 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988665498 Josh Morales https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1988666373 Evidence: Quote from my cousin: You should've gotten it for Christmas but it wouldn't have been easy since they go out of stock quick, but you do deserve it since you passed you're final exams and you've been doing what you're parents say and helping them around the house and all that.

I don't talk at all at home, I don't bother no one, I'm always in my room and organizing it and I only eat candy so i deserve one.
I have never even tried one of those and they don't cost that much. 
I wanted one just to try one and i have seen them on social media and wanted to get one ever since.

Which I have not obtained on the deadline even though I worked day and night skipping breakfast only to have not received one simple aircraft model

A statement that was remarked by my brother was, "You should 100 percent get that model cause you stressed yourself out for attempting to get 4 A's. You worked and studied day and night for it so why not since your the best brother ever!" (Pathos)

It is said that during the last semester that I have skipped breakfast over 100 times. Nearly never using the bathroom, holding in my urine until I get home. Also counting robotics on Mondays and Fridays where I stay until 5. I always do my work as best as I can and half the time I can be seen studying on topics that catch my interest. I work even outside of school having to take out garbage, fix cars and also fix the pipes to prevent flooding. (Logos)

I wanted to keep things on the budget and just wanted a simple mini aircraft model that costs only about $10 plus shipping fees which isn't a lot. I am grateful for a huge 4k TV that got hooked up to my room but maybe have some decoration to go with it.

I believe I should've gotten a cat because of a few reasons. 

(Logos) I do all the chores that my parents tell me to do. I also have two dogs already that I feed, bathe, and get rid of any mess they leave behind so I already have experience with taking care of animals. 

(Pathos) Another reason that I deserve a cat is because I always work hard to achieve good grades and turn in my assignments. I feel like getting a cat could be a reward for all my hard work that I've done for the first semester of my sophomore year.

I wanted this because I was passing in school, I don't get in trouble in school, and I do what in need to do everyday, even my family said this.

sometimes it just makes you feel sad but the ps5 is pure happiness honestly.

Ethos - Not only me, but my mom wants a new house. She said, "We need a new house."

Pathos - I would be really happy to get a new house, I would be able to jump around with how much space it has. But I'm sad in my house that is not big or new.

Yes pencil lead, I feel like a deserve pencil lead because I like to have extra for school.
The school work that I could have done! (without asking for a pencil).

When I was younger, my aunt gave me her old polariod camera. A few days later, it broke and the pictures came out blurry. Getting a new polaroid camera would be nice for good memories.

I wanted to get this phone because I was passing all of my classes my mom noticed that I was but she didn't get it for me because we were low on cash.

Another reason why I wanted to get this phone/Christmas present was that the phone right now I've had since middle school basically and I told my mom that I needed an upgrade, so I showed her the phone I needed to get, she said maybe and I already knew ahead of time that maybe meant no.

Third and final important reason is that the new phone I needed had good battery life this phone that I have right now it can barely last for an hour or two. ]]> 2022-01-12 19:54:40 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989036683 Aaliyah Kimble https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989040391 Something I wanted for Christmas was tickets to out of town somewhere.

I wanted to go travel somewhere for the first time so I can get a good experience. And I have been doing decent in school and trying my best so I think they should've surprised me with tickets. 

Another reason I think should've got a ticket for out of town is because everyone went somewhere out of town but me and I think that's not far I want to experience what they did. 

My last reason is I never been on a plane ever and I think when its time I wont be ready because I waited too long to even go.

The plan had been to visit Chicago for a few days. If that wasn't plausible I would be content with going ANYWHERE else. Break is two weeks long, after all. But alas, I was restricted to my home besides the occasional walks I would take around town. 

It has been a hard few months, and I wanted nothing more than a chance to get away to somewhere I could distract myself from my strife. Really, I have been SUFFERING. It is absolutely HEARTLESS of.. uh. the pandemic. i guess. to KEEP ME INSIDE LIKE THIS. Unimaginable cruelty. I'd be crying for me if I were you.

July 9 to July 14 2021 I was blessed with the chance to go on a trip to Minnesota. While nothing insanely remarkable, it was a wonderful experience for me. Because I had been waiting. SINCE JULY 2019. To leave my house for ANY more than a day. And prior to that the only vacation I have good memory of was June 2019. This is a DEEPLY unbalanced pattern that can only lead to desperation and suffering. I clearly require more frequent vacations.

And oh, to make matters EVEN WORSE. ALL of my friends were able to leave their towns for vacations over break, some over thanksgiving break as well. All of these people, of course, pity me and would easily argue for my right to vacation. Most of my close friends live in California too, which, as we all clearly know, must make them famous and therefore credible. ]]> 2022-01-12 19:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989044211 Kaylen https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989047864 Something I wanted for Christmas a guitar because I've always wanted to learn to play, and I always had good grades.

I also should get a guitar because its cool and Ed Sheeran Plays guitar and he's famous, so famous people use it

One more reason I should get a guitar is because I once said, and I quote "Mom I want a guitar" and my cousin has one so I need one to show them up.

I have also put in the hours, 5x a week I try to lift heavy plates in an attempt to grow these weak, noodle like arms. After lifting so much for so long its only right that I have earned some progress but I have not yet reached anywhere near Dwayne's physique. Logos

And I personal think that a ton of bs. I clear deserved this, and Santa was just being stingy.

One, I have a lot of things to do, and having extra hands could help multitask and get things done quicker. Especially when working on art or writing.

Two, it could make me actual want to participate in sports since have an extra pair of hands is just unfair.

Three, it just funny. Imagine an idiot walking around like they're an freak from other planet. That's comedy right there.

I wanted this every since I was like 6 or 5 I wanted to have a little friend with me and to play with but I couldn't get it because my mom didn't want to get me one because she says I won't feed it, take it out for a walk, and clean it.

I been begging for a dog every year but never got one until my mom finally said we will get one when we get a house but then again I know she won't get me one because she will say again I won't feed it or nothing.

I believe that I should've got the gift for these explanation, I listen to my parents more than I used to which is a good thing and I would clean when told ,also I did get my grades up a little last minute and they would be very useful.

I would use good pods now but it really sucks that they are hard to use while playing and when I look at other peoples gear I would feel a little insecure about mine but I would be grateful that I at least something but it would make my heart explode if I had them.

I need a upgrade because I have been using the same pods ever since I started playing paintball which as been for 3 years and the pods are made from a good brand because it caries more paintballs than the pods I have now.

I really wanted another dog for my current dog that I already have. The reason why is because my current dog could use a friend similar to him to play with and keep him company when everyone at my house leaves for work and school. During the school day I think about how lonely he may be when we are not home. He deserves a friend to make sure he does not get lonely. (pathos)

Another reason why I wanted one more dog is because I take such good care of my current one. I take him on walks, feed him, take him out to use the bathroom, and I play with him. I can handle taking care of another dog. (logos)

Finally the last reason why I wanted another dog is because I see such cute puppies who need a permanent home. It is very sad how many dogs have no forever homes and I would like to make sure they live in a nice and good home with me because I am a good dog owner.

(Pathos) - I feel like I deserve a a puppy because ever since I was 10 I always wanted one. I even played with the neighbors dog when ever I get a chance. I just feel worst and worst every year hoping I'll get one.

(Logos) - My Parents won't let me get a puppy because they think I'm irresponsible to take care of one but I babysit my uncles dog for a week straight and I have money I'm willing to pay for the food it needs.

Evidence: I am a great student who tries their hardest for school. I have never gotten sent to the office in my entire academic career.  I've had multiple breakdowns due to school, so I deserve this stuffed animal. 

Hard evidence: I clean the house everyday and cook occasionally. No one has to ask me to clean up, I just do it. Besides that, I take care of my little could and brother when I get home as if I'm their parent. For that reason I feel as though a stuffed animal is necessary as a form of payment.

Anecdote: My dad didn't want to get me this because I'm "too old". As if I tell him he's too old to be watching Madagascar.

Logos- I have been working a lot and have worked 8 hours a day. I have helped with chores around the house and have been doing good in school.

Pathos- I really do deserve a dog since I will be able to maintain it since I've been working, I can finally support it and take well care of it. It will help me with my mental health and not make me feel so lonely at home.

Reasons why I (cough my little brother cough) deserve it:

-First Reason: My little brother is always loud.
-Second Reason: He makes the room for messier then it already is.
-Third Reason: Since he is young, he can get away with things and blame the older brothers (me and my other brother).
-Final Reason: He is a Fortnite kid and is also the devil.

The primary reason I should have gotten this because I made sure that I got good grades and actually gave a bit of effort towards all my classes.

Second reason is I made sure I got to school on time even on days that I didn't want to go i got up and got ready.

Final reason is because I made sure I didn't miss a single day in class although I did get to some classes late.]]> 2022-01-12 21:05:13 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989140611 Gio https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989142221 The thing I wanted for Christmas that I didn’t get was a truck.

I should get this gift because my phone was broken by someone, I was completely devastated and balling my eyes out for hours. I've always taken well care of my things and its wasn't really even my fault.

I have the iPhone XR and its just old and slow, my camera quality is so bad. Apple was in a $500 million in a class-action lawsuit that claimed the company slowed phones to prompt customers to upgrade to newer ones. I needed the newest one so that I can have a phone that works

Since my phone is so old all my pictures and videos come out blurry and just look bad, Phone 13 is more adept at low light,, it produces clean and detailed images.

My mother even said, "Natalia is a great kid, and I think she should get this book because she's a straight A student and those As show that she is a hard worker. Therefore, she should get this book." However, my father thought the book was too violent. 

I am honestly very sad about this because I've wanted this book for so long, and I feel like I deserve it. For example, not only did I get straight As, but I also did my parent's chores and I never complained about anything they made me do and yet my father wouldn't let me have this book. 

Yes the book is a little intense, but this book makes me want to read chapter books instead of graphic novels. Also, isn't it better for kids to use their imagination instead of looking at pictures? The answer is yes.]]> 2022-01-12 21:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989145999 Alyssa orozco https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989208967  for Christmas I really wanted a new iPad pro but I didn't receive one .

EVIDENCE 1: I do art so a ipad would help me out try new medias or types of art because it is on a different platform and could help me reach out on what else I want to try.

EVIDENCE 2: The ipad I was looking at is my moms old ipad pro that she DOES NOT use anymore, it sits on her desk and I feel as if I could put good use into it with what I an interested in rather then it going to waste .

Many in my family had expressed that I had wonderful art skills, stating that I drew beautifully and had inherited these skills from my mother. Even my sister stated, "Ambar's such a wonderful drawer. Sure, she needs to learn a little bit of shading and  learn how to add just a teeny bit more details sometimes, but other than that, she has awesome art skills."

I had grinded and worked my butt of to get the grades I have today. I have almost all straight A's, I studied, I pushed myself to participate more in class, and I even learned how to socialize with others easily, therefore making it fairly obvious that I had made great progress in life.
 
I am a hardworking sophomore, my family obviously knowing I have distinctive art skills that I can put to the test if I had simply received a drawing tablet. So, it's the least they can do, and I deserve it!

I worked most of the summer and on weekends with my dad from 7-4. I feel like this reason should have gotten me the oculus. Another reason I should have gotten the oculus is because I help my mom a lot too. When she isn't home I help her by taking care of my younger siblings by playing with them or just hanging out.

I help out the most in my house like doing the most chores, watching my younger siblings, or even helping my mom cook. My other siblings hardly do anything but they get rewarded more so it should be fair that I get something that I want for once.

i've been asking this for a while since its for the truck that i've been building for the past few years my parents know that one of the last pieces that the truck needs.

Hard evidence (logos): Ive been wanting sperry's for the longest. I deserved them because i come home from school everyday and clean the house and walk the dog. Idont think its fair that im the only one that has to clean the house but i guess. 

Ancedote: I think people who help their parents out a lot like me should deserve what they wanted for christmas. :)]]> 2022-01-13 05:54:20 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989682676 Rafael https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989691371 What I really wanted for Christmas this year
was Black Cat 4S.
One reason why deserved I deserve these
shoes was the effort I put in at home. I do
more things then I should be doing and don't
expect anything out of it so I deserve some
recognition for it.

My second reasoning is my behavior. I’ve been staying out of trouble recently and not giving my parents a hard time. I should be rewarded for not giving them a hard time

My last reason is because I never ask for anything big so getting these shoes would make up for all the things I didn’t ask for. I could always get them myself but since I’ve haven’t asked my parents for much, this one time won’t hurt.]]> 2022-01-13 06:02:11 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989691371 Andres Hernandez https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1989711411 For Christmas, the only thing I wanted was a green tree python which I did not get but I feel like I deserve it                                         
Quote from my uncle " Andres always has his room clean, helps around the house when I need help with a job he always comes with to help me"     

Asking for a simple snake which I work to feed it and have all the stuff to get it and I could breed it and have more baby snakes.


Plus my little cousins love snakes which they would love to touch the snakes and my sister and brother could help me take care of it when im not home.

Quote: quote from my little cousin Nathan: ''Since you watch me every night and take care of me also help me with my homework Santa should bring you the new Xbox.''(Pathos)

Hard Evidence (Logos): I didn't fail any of my classes.

Anecdote: I watch and take care of my cousin every night so don't think its to much to ask for, but right now they are very hard to find.

I deserve these shoes because I passed all my classes this year with good grades. I was also able to maintain the balance of student and athlete. 


Also, I have an older pair of converse but, they are super dirty and I believe it's time for a new pair. These converse are ripping, have dirt, and are old. Considering these conditions, I believe it would have been fair for me to get these converse for Christmas. 

Additionally, Converse are on the pretty cheap side compared to other shoe brands. For example, the average price of them are about $60, which is about half of the average shoe price. In conclusion, these shoes can last me a while and are set at a pretty reasonable price.

I believe I should've have received gift because I take out my sister, help clean around the house, and doing okay in school .  

I have been asking for one for a year and I still need to keep waiting because my mom and dad want me to do good for the 1s which I did okay on and still didn't get it.


I feel like I should've have got it because I been using computer a lot, missing with them, or mod on them.

Quote (Pathos) - A quote from my current dog told me "Miranda I really want a friend, you play with me, feed me, take me for walks and all but I can't always play with you because you're not home all the time so if I had a friend I could play with him all the time!"

Hard Evidence (Logos) - I believe I deserved this gift because I always get good grade, I take care of my other pets, and I always do what my parents ask. I also take care of myself so my parents don't have to do much or worry.

Anecdote - With all my hard work and responsibility I have a lot of stress with how hard I work and having another dog would make everything soooo much better.

I feel like I deserved it since I didn't want anything for Christmas this year anyways plus I did good in school and was told by my teacher that she recommends me to do AP next school year.

Plus he told me he'll get me one recently and last year but I still haven't got it like sir why would you hype me up for me to not get it..

Hopefully I get it this year ima manifesting it!

I feel like i deserve a dog because I show how responsible I am. I'd always use to take care of my uncles dog while he goes away. I get sad every christmas hoping i'll get one.

My parent's don't want to give me a puppy because they think I won't be responsible for one. I have shown them with my uncles dog but they still think i'm not ready for one. I also told them I had money and I was willing to put money in and they still said "no."

Next christmas im going to try to talk it out with them and convince them. I won't stop bugging them until I can get one.]]> 2022-01-13 22:51:15 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1991340571 xavier rodriguez https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1991554442 a gift that i really wanted for Christmas was a new bike but i did not get it.

i wanted a bike since the one i currently have is really old and I'm constantly having to fix the chain and the back tire since ive been using my bike for so long.
pathos- I use my bike a lot when its nice out and my grandparents and family knows that i love to go on long rides it helps me clear my mind and also is a workout and i feel like if my bike i currently have breaks before spring a new one would help me so much.
logos- ive always used my bike to just get some type of freedom or like to just get away since i live in a pretty full house my bike has always helped me leave and just to be somewhere besides my house for a little bit.

Another reason why I wanted a puppy for Christmas is because I've always wanted to grow up with one and now since I have so much free time I think it'd be a good idea to use that time to experience a life with a puppy.

Lastly, I wanted a puppy because its a good way to start being more responsible.

These pair of shoes caught my eyes real quick. I have other pairs of Jordan's and just been wanting to start a bigger shoe collection of my own. I love Jordan's I been wearing Jordan's since I was little with me and my family.

When I was little I always had some type of Jordan's on and ever since I been wearing them. I'm not obsessed with Jordan's a lot. I do wear other types of shoes but Jordan's are the top of my list of all others.

I feel like I deserve these because I have been doing better in school then I ever have been. My grades from last semester wasn't bad I passed all my classes. I am on the Varsity cheerleading team which means I'm being more apart of the school and cheering on for Morton. I have not been in any type of bad trouble with anybody really. 

I have changed in a lot of ways to accomplish things like this to prove to my parents, and I think i did that and deserve a new pair of shoes.

Pathos- Ever since i started using eyeliner I always have the need to always wear it because i feel happy and it make me feel better since i look better with eyeliner. Since i use eyeliner a lot I feel weird if I don't have any on and it gives me dysmorphia if i don't use it. Even though a lot of people especially my family calls me emo, i don't put much thought into it more like take it as a compliment.

I just need and want eyeliner, that's all i asked even if people gave me money to buy whatever i want, it would have been better to buy it for me since i don't like going out but also because i told them what i wanted. Especially since i know people give money as gift i know they give it to you because they don't know what to get which i told them i only wanted eyeliner.]]> 2022-01-14 14:53:36 UTC https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1992452254 Julian Navar, One thing that I wanted for Christmas but didn't get was a vacation https://padlet.com/abruns91/plw5z1y0gggj3hjx/wish/1993828891 The first reason I should've got this was because I work hard in everything that I do.
