8th AND 9th grade:If you had one superpower, what would it be and why? (Hint: describe exactly what your power would be, why you would want that one, what you would use your power for, etc. Would you be good or evil? Would you use it just for fun or for a good cause?)
If I were to have a superpower, I would want super strength. I would want to be the strongest girl in the world, but not be like a super huge body builder, just really strong. I would want to have the super strength so I could do anything I wanted, like if I wanted to go rock climbing, I would be strong enought to do it, or play football, just other things like that that require strength. Of course I would be good, it wouldn't really be fun to be bad, just sometimes have a little bit of rebellion. I would probably just use my powers for fun, or for helping people who don't have amazing super strength like me.
I would also like to have amazing basketball skills/superpower. I want to be the female MVP of NBA. I would like to be just as good as Michael Jordan ever was, I would actually like to be his equal, people would think of me the same way they think of him. I will be known throughout history as the godess of basketball, jumping and dunking just like Jordan. I would play on the Cleveland Cavaliers with Lebron James and Shaquille O'Neal, and be the only girl to ever play in the NBA.

The Strength of Words
None of us really know how strong words can actually be until we're effected by them. There are many different ways that words can affect you. Some words and phrases can also be life changing; even the simple words like "I love you", or even "I hate you" can impact someone's life in a huge way.
Our world and entire society is built on words. The Constitution and Declaration of Independence are all made up of powerful and influential words. Words that without them American would not be as it is today. Many peace treaties were also made up of just the right words, at the right time. It is always words that start or end wars, look at what started the war with Iraq; rumors of nuclear weapons, and we're brought into a war that has been going on for years.
Words can be hurtful as well as wonderful. If someone says a rude comment to you, or makes fun of something about you, or something you're proud of, sometimes you never forget it. There are some things you just can't get over, no matter how hard you try, you'll always remember what they said, and how it made you feel. Good words are remembered in a different and better way. You'll remember what they said about you and the good way it made you feel.
Words can build or break. Whether good or bad, every word can change the future of anything, and we always need to remember how strong words can be, and who they will be effecting.
