My school, Lynn Classical High School, is not so good right now. The people who built the school built it on a swamp. So the school was sinking for a while. But last year, construction workers came to the school and started to fix it. They’re still not done, but hopefully they will be soon. Other [...]]]></description>

I wake up at 6 am. Then I go take a shower, get dressed, and then my cousin’s mom picks me up at 7 am to take me to school. When I reach my school, I talk to my friends and socialize until 7:45 am, when I go to my first class. School is over [...]]]></description>
