Dean Smith

 " I wasn't trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what was right."
                                                                                    - Dean Smith

 What this quote means to me is that in order to be successful you have to do what is right. You have to be willing to choose the right. If you choose the right people will notice. When people notice you for being a good person you know you chose the right. This will get you far in life.you will get more opportunities. However if you choose the wrong everything can go wrong. For example if you cheat on a game, and people notice the word will get out. No one will want to play you and then people wont notice you for and good thing. They will notice you for a bad thing. However if you don't cheat on the game but constantly win because of your efforts, Then will they notice you as a good person. Some may even look up to you. All you have to do is choose the right. 

Karma will take care of itself.

"It's not about how to achieve your dreams. it's about how to lead your life.If you lead your life the RIGHT WAY, the karma(destiny,fortune,good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you."
 -Dr. Randy Pausch
 What this quote means to me is that you  if you can't accomplish what you want it's because you aren't living your life the right way. You can't go around choosing the wrong way and expecting to get something good out of it. you have to be willing to choose the right every time. This is because this is how you live your life the right way. By doing the right things. You have to give it all you got, Without giving up. If you really want  something you have to protect it. You cant get something if you give up. If you don't get it the first time try again and again until you get it. An example of this is me, i want to join football. In order to do that i have to do weight with the rest of the people that want to join. If i live my life the right way, which you be dedicating myself to go to the weight room every day after school, i might be ready for tryouts in April and maybe even make the team. However, if i don't go every day i will never be ready. you have to make sure all the decisions you make are good.

Theodore roosevelt

" Of all the work that is done or that can be done or that can for our country, the greatest is that of educating  the BODY, the MIND, and above all the CHARACTER, giving spiritual and mortal training to those who in a few years are themselves to decide the destinies of the nation." 
                                                                                             -Theodore Roosevelt

 What this quote means to me is that the future of this country and our own future, relies on us. We are the ones that hold the power to change. for that however we must be Educated. Not just through smarts, but through the body, mind and character. With this we can change many thing. Being educated through the mind means that you will come up with stuff that will help.Thing that will help improve. If you are educated through the character you will not do thing that will cause harm. You will do thing that prevent harm. If people do do this then they wont care, they will keep doing what they are doing. This can cause harm to the people and the country. You have to educate your self and teach yourself to choose the right.

Volunteer opportunities

Volunteer opportunities

One of the opportunities i found was visiting patients. Not just any patients however, Terminally ill patients that are in their final stage of life. you are assigned a patient that is close to your home, and you are to visit him/her to keep company. you can bring them flowers, Picture. You have to be willing to read the paper or a book. Maybe even share hobbies. Another opportunity was music. It was to share you music talent with the hospital. Therefore, entertainment and comfort would be brought. I can apply to volunteer by calling one of the volunteer opportunities, and asking how i can join.

Body-Mind-Spirit

 "Take responsibility for your own body,mind, and spirit, for you own physical,mental and spiritual well being." -MR. C.S. Haymore

        What this quote means to me is that you have control over your future. Only you can control your future and you should be choosing the right decisions. You should be responsible and take care of what you do, what you think and how or what you will be seen as in the future. You are the one that will choose  whether you want to be seen as the person that never did anything.The person that became a homeless, Or the person that did something. The person that built something that made a difference. If you don't take care of your body and smoke then what good will that do. Smoking wont get you anything but a gravestone with your name on it. Take care of your mind, Choose what is right for you not for others. Those people might not even be in your future. If you follow those people it can cost you a successful future.Only you can prevent that from happening.

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR

"Intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character. that is the goal of true education."
                                                                                                      Dr. Martin Luther king JR

What this quote means to me is that in order to truly be educated you don't have to just be smart. You have to have a high character. You cant be educated just by being intelligent. Being intelligent means that you are smart not educated. You also cant just have a good character. This is because having a good character just means your a good person. Having intelligence and a good character can get you somewhere in life. You may be successful. If you are missing you cant be successful and it will be hard. For example if you lack character you must be out there drinking beer and smoking. That wont get you anywhere except maybe a hospital. If you lack intelligence well you wont know anything.

Do what you should do

"we need the courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn't do"            Richard L. Evans

 
                 What this quote is saying is that we need to learn to stand up for what's right. Even if you're the only one for it. We should have the courage to not only stand up for what's right but to continue it as well. we cant just say something and leave it unattended. If you shouldn't stop what you should do in fact keep doing it. If it isn't bad then why stop doing it. However if it is something bad you should have the courage to stop doing it at all cost. For Example if your with your friends at a party, and your friends want to do drugs. what do you do? You should have the courage to say no and continue to say no whenever this situation comes up. If you have a test the next day don't go to a party stay home and do what you should do.

Reflection

I don’t feel like this would be the job for me. I am not fascinated by the work on teeth. I would much rather do something with a little more thrill in it. I feel like it would be boring for my working on teeth every day, knowing that I have to do the same thing over and over again.

LIE

                                             "When you tell one lie, it leads to another."

         When you get in trouble and they ask what you did , most people lie. This isn't the best thing to do. This is because when you tell a lie you will eventually have to tell another lie to cover that up then another one. It is better to just tell the truth in the beginning. It will not only get you in less trouble it will also save you from having to think of a lie to come up with one after another. An example of this quote would be if you broke a window. The owner knows it was you because he saw you. Therefore he asks you why did you do it. You might say you didn't do and wont stop saying that until  he believes you. When you see that he wont believe you you will come up with another lie. Like it was my brother or he did it. You may even say there was a bug and i tried to kill it and the window broke. All of these lies will start to sum up . However if you just tell the truth and say you're sorry it will be easier. Having to tell a lie means that you have to remember every thing you said so that later on it will still make sense. However if you tell the truth you wont have to remember anything. 

School break days

              During the winter break i did many things. Me and my family went to a friends house for Christmas. We stayed up until 5:00 am. However it was getting quite boring ass they were singing over and over again. For Christmas i got a sweater that i wanted with WRX on it. WRX is a car from Subaru and it stand for world rally cross because they use the WRX in rally competitions.  For New Years we didn't really do anything like we always do. We always go to our friends house and do a party. However this year we didn't, this year me an my family stayed at home. My parents went to sleep early because they were tired but me and my brother stayed up until 12:00. During the last week of break we went to Fresno with some friends and staid at a cabin in shaver lake. We did have a lot of problems however. First of all one of the cars got stuck on the snow and we had to go back the next day to get it with a tow. Then we lost the keys to a Honda Odyssey in the snow. Therefore most of our vacation consisted of digging in the snow looking for the keys. We didn't have any look finding them so they had to stay an extra day so that a blacksmith could make them a key. I watched some of the football game, SEA HAWKS v. Vikings, but didn't get to finish watching it. It was a long ride home but after about five hours of driving we arrived back home.
