WHO KNOWS ME BEST?

Who knows me best?  My mommy, because she birthed me, she knows strength and weakness, and knows my friends. She knows me best because she birthed me. My mom is some how a part of me because when  she had me, some of her genes came to me. She also knows my strength and weakness. She knows my strength because when I came to high school, I was so scared that I wasn't going to make friends. But, my mom said " it's going be OK." Now, I am in my second year of high school. I have friends now because my mom said it was going be OK. My weakness is being more open to people. I was always a shy person when I was little I didn't have too many friends. My mom knew that I can break through walls that come my way. She help me with confidence and self-esteem. My mom knows my friends. She always said, "she always needs to meet my friends and that's a good thing because she brings the real side out of me at home. In conclusion, nobody knows me better than my mommy.

Dress Code

We shouldn't have dress code because we want more freedom, don't buy uniforms, and to be comfortable. students get to express how they look instead looking like twins. Everybody have different style that they want to show off at school or outside the school. A lot of students don't have money for uniforms. Some students are not blessed with money.  Also, students want to be comfortable in their own clothes and skin. When we had uniforms it made us itchy and taught  In closing, no uniforms are the best thing that happened in DPS.

Denver Vs Kenya

The three differences in greetings between Denver and Kenya are showing respect, addressing elders and handshakes. They both show respect. When greeting in Denver, give eye to eye contact. It shows that we are listening to each other. In Kenya, they lower their eyes when they’re greeting an elder. To show respect to their elders. They address their elders differently. In Denver, we refer to elders as Mr. or Mrs. But; children in Kenya refer to all adults as “Aunt” or “Uncle.” Although we both give out handshakes, it’s done in different ways. Denver gives out firm handshakes and men don’t wait for women to extend hand first. However, Kenya gives handshake but, a man waits for the women to extend hand first. This is most interesting because most countries don’t wait for women first. In closing, here are some differences they do when greeting in  their countries.
