Trust

Being an older brother, I must constantly convince my brothers to do tasks for me.To do this, I must coerce them into doing what I want.. As of recently, it has been harder and harder to convince them. So, I now pretty much have to bribe them to get them to do what I want. When my brothers were growing up, however, all i had to do was smooth talk them into whatever I wanted. One time when we were on a road trip throughout the East Coast of the United States, I got really bored. I then told my brother Dominic (who was playing on his Nintendo DS) that if i was bored, there would be no one to make sure he does not fall asleep while playing the DS. Dominic really was not that smart when he was young, so he gave me the DS so that way he did not fall asleep... while playing it. He ended up very bored, but at least I was not. I had myself a nice, nearly fully charged DS.

Essay paragraph

English has always been my worst subject. I tend to do very well on the state English tests, but that is because the format for the questions make the test very easy. English is hard for me because of the specific terms that need to be learned and how exactly to use them. The rules that apply to these terms make absolutely no sense to me and as a result, I do not like the subject. Pair this distaste with the fact that I find writing boring and it creates a large amount of frustration. For example, when I look at sentences I can tell which one is correct because it sounds the best and makes sense. However, when I must find specifics such as the types of clauses, I have no clue what part to look for in the sentence. It is these of questions and terms I must know that cause me to do poorly, and it is probably the most rage-inducing thing about school.

OGT's

The OGT test that I am most worried about (and the only one I am worried about) is the english section. English is easily my worst subject and I just find it really hard to study it at all. To be honest, I barely need to study anything for the other subjects. Unfortunately, the one I do need to study for causes me to  just get bored of and never do it. The only way to actually get prepared for the english OGT would be for me to power through the fact that I do not want to and study anyways. I tend to stay more by myself so I probably will not study with friends. I just work better by myself and friends will probably distract me. The best way to actually get studying done would probably be using online means such as online tests and reading short explanations on what some english terms actually mean. For example, I completely forgot what a clause is. Now I need to go look that up and hopefully not get sidetracked.
