Tuesday Write: Bell Schedule

                     It is much better to have a late start on Mondays than Tuesdays at San Ramon for many reasons. One of these reasons is that we get to finish all the homework that has been assigned to us over the weekend that we might not have been able to finish, because of sports or any other weekend activities. Another reason would be that you get to ease into the week, instead of having to wake up very early on the first day. It adds a little bit more time into the weekend before the busy week starts. A third reason would be that A period isn't at the end of the day. When the A period students are let out later than the others, it causes problems with carpooling and school sports, and splits the school to leave at different times. With a Monday late start, everyone starts at different times like usual, but we all finish at the same time. This also makes it easier to park in the morning, because not even half of the school is there and there is no traffic.
                    Some counterclaims against this would be that you can relax Monday night, or that there might be more homework on that night, because it is during the week. These depend on what teacher a student has, but generally, it is as likely to be having weekend homework as it is to have Monday homework, and students are more likely to want to do homework on a week night rather than the weekend. It is also better to relax Sunday than Monday, because then you can begin the week fully rested, and not have to be tired on Monday night. 
                         

Introduction

My name is Daphne, and I like to play guitar. I also like to listen to a lot of music, and I play soccer. My favorite book is probably the first Hunger Games book, because it's very exciting and well written. My writing goal for this year would be to improve on my long essay writing skills, because I'm not very good at writing now. A quote that I like is "You're either dying or living everyday. I'm living." -Christofer Drew
