Me 2 We Assemble
This was a good assemble and it really showed us what we as a group are doing to help as well as showing us what it is like in the country that we are happening and why our help and Me 2 We is so vital in these desolate areas. I also liked how they had actually speakers who new waht was going on from stuff other then pictures and how it was actually a life experience.
Suicide Play
It was a good play with a good message and it also kept you interested when u watched it. It wasnt as lame as a lot of the other ones on like bullying and stuff have been. It did i good job in showing us the problems in a subtle way but also allowing us to actually have to think about the situation

Keith's Story
Keiths story was about how he was happy living with less then he would have been had he have kept money for himself. It trully showed how in his case it wasnt the money that was making him happy or unhappy its how he felt that not being able to donate a whole bunch of money made him feel unhappy with himself. He realized that he didnt have to donate large sums of money to accomplish something that small amouts of money can greatly help someone when the need it.... and how happy it made him to know he was helping all thise people.
Leadership Quote
Dwight D. Eisenhower:
You do not lead by hitting people over the head - that's assault, not leadership.
I chose this as my quote because it represents how many people think that leaders act and I myself know that originally this is what i thought had to be done to be a good leader to be able to enforce myself and my idea's but i have realized what makes a better leader is someone who is understanding and is able to compromise for the greater good of the group but also someone strong enough to be confrontational when it is neccessarry. So in conclusion i chose this quote as a way to represent how i used to think about what makes a leader and to shwo taht this is not what actually is neccesary.

Nelson Mandela
He was an important figure to look at for leadership because
1. He was a good leader himself
2. He promoted a positive change in his home country
3. Would do anything for his cause including spending most of his young life in a prison
4. Never gave up of the dream of an apartheid free South Africa
5. Is still involved in world changing events till this day

Spring Clean Up Day
I believe that is is a rather good idea because it is good for the environment while raising money for me 2 we it is also a good way to get kids involved in their community which is scarce in teenagers these days. It would be a good way to get peope working for their community as well as raising money for a good cause.
Whale Rider
It was a heartwarming movie and although i didnt see the ending i could almost see it coming..... she was able to complete the challenges that the boys could not do and shows how good of leadership qualities she has and the grandfather finally realizes his mistakes.... It was a pretty good ending although the begining didnt really get me into the movie enough to make me really care for the characters or even care when it appeared that she had died but it is a good lesson that gender doesnt mean that someone can or cannot be a good leader.
What kind of legacy Do I want to leave?
The kind fo legacy that i would like to leave would consist of being a healthy active man and also as a huge money maker or a powerful human being. This is because powerful people always get remembered and if I was one people would remember me and it doesnt matter how they thought of me just that the remember me.
Best Thing About IDCI
In my opinion the best thing about IDCI would have to be that sports programs. I think this because it is a way for a group of guys or girls to get together and achieve the common goal of winning as well as developing long lasting friendships not only with the other players but with the coaches as well..... it is a great way to let yourself go and to be active and just have a great time.
