Who I am

My name is Sukhvir Toor. I am 16 years old and I live with a big Indian family. I was born in Penticton and am the middle child of my family. We have moved five times but only lived in Penticton. I work at Tim Hortons but one day I want to be a lawyer. To become a lawyer I want to study at the University of British Columbia or the University of Toronto. I am never late for work even though I am usually late to school in the mornings but I complete all my assignments and try my hardest to achieve a 4.0 GPA. I love to spend time with my family and closest friends. We have a great time together and never get bored. I like to be outside in my free time with my brothers and friends. I play field hockey in school, it is one of my favourite sports. I get along with all the girls on the team, they are a little crazy but very nice. I am very respectful of other people and other cultures, I hate it when someone is being racist or discriminating someone. I look down upon all the haters of the world. I dream of travelling the world one day. I have already been to some countries around the world and have travelled outside of North America five times. My family also loves to travel, we share the dream of seeing the world. I am stubborn and try to fight for what is right. I like to have everything clean, except for my own room. My room is probably the messiest one in the house. I am proud of myself for keeping up in school so far, and not falling into peer pressure. I do not believe in alcohol or drugs. I don't ever want to try them and probably never will because I have pretty good will power and don't care what people think of me. I don't want those things to define me and they most likely wont.

Someone Like You 2

          In my book, "Someone Like You" I don't like the main character, Halley's boyfriend, Macon. He is very sweet but he doesn't tell her anything. She is an open book but he keeps everything hidden from her. Halley doesn't know anything about Macon outside of his school life and a little bit of his work life. Macon barely shows up to class anyways and is always lying to everyone around him. Macon is a bad influence to her. Halley started deceiving and lying to her parents. She started to sneak out of the house in the middle of the night to go meet Macon. I think Halley should first fix her relationship with her parents and then go after boys instead of drifting further apart from them. Macon isn't helping her with anything besides giving rides which she can do by herself. Halley needs someone to talk to but he just wants her to forget all of it without letting it out of her system. Macon is hurting inside because his best friend died and he needs to heal and get everything out also. Macon's best friend, Michael was dating Halley's best friend, Scarlett and he got her pregnant before he left them for good. Halley's relationship with Macon is like a slap to the face for Scarlett because she still needs her best friend without another boy in the picture; especially if that boy is her dead boyfriend's best friend. In my opinion Macon needs to open up to Halley so she isn't dating a stranger or she needs to stop seeing him because he isn't helping her with anything.
