What Would YOUR Verse Be?

I was thinking about you today. We've been asking the questions all year, "Who are you?" and "What hope is there for me?" And you explored the answers to those questions in your personal memoirs, and your argument essay, in your realistic fiction stories and in your poetry. We've talked about your writing being a Time Capsule of who you were in 7th grade - your passions and pet peeves, your dreams and frustrations. I saw this video today, and as I said, I thought of you. If you and your friends made a video "On Being 12 (or 11 or 13)" I wonder what YOU would say. What do you think of the comments from these kids? Why don't you make your own version?
