Algebra Project

I think that this is going to be a good project. I think that the idea of finding and knowing the distance between planets is a very good topic. Its also great that my school will be joining in the celebration this coming year and we will investigate space and technology for the entire day. I really liked the idea of making a design and display about the planets in our solar system. Its good because we get to learn about science too. So, I liked the project.

What do you love? How do you love it?

I love many things... I love my family and friends. In many ways, the way they always help me when I need something, when they always comfort me, I love them because I get to hang out and talk when I fell said and I do the same thing for them. I love my family. And its sad to know that friend s come and go like stars even though sometimes you dont see them, they are always there. They come and go but you are always going to to love them just the way they are. Thats what I love.

Have you ever watched a great game?

I didn't watch the Superbowl... I forgot about it but a lot of people told me it was a great game. I am not the best sport fan ever but sometimes I like to watch games. I prefer watching games that are alive like, a school game or a club games etc. Except for the World cup of soccer... That one I can't miss. I have watched great games. There was a basketball games one week ago that was really amazing. The score was very close from beginning to end. It was awesome. It was CIC against ECA. CIC was down at the beginning but then came back to it and made a very exciting game. Although we lost(by one point) it was the best game I've ever watched in my life. Amazing!

Principled..

For me, principled is to be and act with responsibility. "Acting in accordance with morality and showing recognition of right and wrong" - English dictionary

We all love to get recognition from the things that we do, and it is important to do that when no one is watching. Like now, I am doing my homework without my mom telling me to. WE apply this in every class including math. When we have homework, we have to be principled to do them. Mr. Lettinga gave the best example. principled is to do the right thing, when no one is watching. Honestly, when I walk down the hallway, I do pick the trash I see. Not all the trash but, it is on the floor, right next to me, I would defenently pick it up. I do principled things like: helping my brother with his homework, and by that I kind of you know, set a good example through my actions. So he can do the same thing when he gets older. I also am principled by turning the lights off when I live a room etc. I have to admit that I do unprincipled things sometimes.. like chewing gum in class and sometimes saying bad words event though I dont even notice when I say them. I think that I have some things that I have to work on to be a more principled person.

What do you do after school?

Well, I at 3 o'clock, after the bell ranged I go directly to my locker to take the things that I need for the next day and I usually wait for my friends to do the same so we can go together downstairs. When we get there, I always buy a bottle of water and go or to after school activities that are: Soccer, Band, Choir and Spanish Drama. When I have after school activities I stay until 5 o'clock at school and live by bus. When I get home I go to my room and take a shower sometimes I stay there until 8:00 watching TV and sometimes I run upstairs to do my homework. My mom starts to cook dinner at 7:00 to 7:30 so she is always finished at 8:00. Then we have dinner and after dinner I go on my facebook for a little. At 10:00 I am usually getting ready to bed I brushing my teeth, washing my hands and putting on my Pj. And go to bed. That's what I do after school.

What kids of professional development do you do to keep you "edge" as excellent students?

I think that what keeps me an "edge" excellent student is really simple, what I do is doing my homework once I get home; reading books also helps me. I also study the day before any exam. I think that just by doing those things, it makes me a good student. Also, I have good behavior in class, and to be responsible. That’s what I do or try to do to be an excellent student we have to be responsible.

Resolutions for this new year

I dont know why some people make new year resolution if they just stick to them for a month or two into the New Year. I am not one of those people. I can make resolutions in the middle of the year, if I know I will stick with them and really do it, so instead of just bringing up a lot of resolutions knowing that I will not do them I will pick up 5 and do them for the rest of the year. My resolutions are: to spend more time with my family because I think that I stay to much time in front of the TV in my room. And I know that I woulnt live with them for more than 5 year so.. its better to do it now. My second resolution is to live a healthier life style and by doing that,lose 10 pounds because its better for me and I have to admit that I am eating way to much candy. I got to stop doing that.. my forth resolution is to save money so I can buy something I want to, I mean its always good to save money. And my last resolution for this new year is to help my brother with his homework and do mine a little better. Him because I know he is struggling and me because I know I can do a lot better than what I am doing right now and that I can get better grades than the ones I get now. Well, happy New Year!!! Let's make 2011 better than 2010!!!
