Belonging

If i had to choose were i belong other than in my family ( even if i dont really belong there ) it would have to be with the sport teams that I play with.. Be it basketball or volleyball i feel that i trully belong to be in with that group of people and i feel comfortable with myself as a person.. Also a lot of these people whom I participarte with have been long time friends which only furthers the bond i have with this area of my life.

Grade 8 Tours

I only was able to tour grade 8's the one time and i did not really enjoy myself. I had a really lippy kid whom i could not see eye to eye with. I might have over reacted when i threatened to duck tape him but noone was interefering and i felt it my right to do something to put that kid in his place. Had I not intervened i am positive he would have continued with his actions pushing more then just me over the edge. Other than that kid it was an enjoyale time and all the kids seemed to listen to me.

* Secrets of Success

I do agree with the things he said in his presentation... Especially the one about having to push urself.... or having someone there to push u to do better. This is because noone ever seems to achieve anything unless there is someone behind them who believes in them and that they can succeed. The only thing i dont agree with is having an idea.. althought that can help it is possible for someone to be successful even if they do not have their own idea... If you can change someone elses idea and make it your own you can succeed just as well....

Spring Clean Up

I went to my grandpa's house.
I helped him cut up a piano and carry this workbench from the basement to the curb to be thrown out. I havent collected the money because i felt bad because i havent told him he needs to pay me so i dont want to till the right moment. Overall it was a good experience and i liked getting outta school to see my grampa cuz hes a pretty cool guy

Freedom Writers

I learned that its not about were you or what you have it is aout how hard u work and i bad u want something. It also showed me however that people in these types of situations need help to get out of the way they are living sometimes even if they want to succeed and i learned how just by showing interest and believing in someone that they can change and be better people. Basically this movie shows how someone can make a huge difference in someones lives for the better.

The last Lecture

It was kind of depressing cuz he kept talking about how he was going to die. But it was uplifting because he was trying to show us how to live and how the way he thinks is a good way to think about society. He shows how u should always chase ur dreams and achieve your goals. Because your only as talented as you let yourself be.

My Grade

I think i should get a 65 out of a hundred. This is because I think that i have shown decent participation in this class. Also i have been involved in a few of the projects and am now working on the overnight with Ms Matches.
