My Own SSS quote

"Having goals can the same as choosing the right because you can stand up for yourself and make your own good future." -Jessica Lopez

This quote means that your goals can help you choose the right because you are willing to save your good future for it cannot be affected. Choosing the right is making good decisions 24/7 without being told to. Having goals is making your own future/preparing yourself to know what you really want. It relates to standing up because a person can be brave enough to say no or leave to something bad their so called friends are doing if they care about their good reputation and about their goals. It relates to us as students because some people can have friends that smoke and if they invite you to do that you should say just avoid them because those type of people just want to make you have a bad reputation.  You can make your own future by the decisions you make and by having a good heart which can make you succeed. It can make you succeed because a lot of people can admire you and respect you because they can see that your the only person that really cares for their future and their good reputations by trying hard and never giving up.

Memorial Day

Memorial Day

This Monday the United States gets to celebrate Memorial Day by having a day off from school, work, and etc. Memorial Day is a day where they honor all of those who lost their lives during the Civil War. Since the United States got in another conflict, Memorial Day became a day where they commemorate american military which are died for all wars. For decades, they day have been celebrated on May 30. Until the Uniform Act was established and Made the day to be every last Monday of May to create a 3 day weekend for the federal employees. Each year cities and towns make parades to commemorate the soldiers and the veterans of the war. Each year the moment of remembrance takes place at 3:00 p.m. local time.

Beautiful Character

"If there is beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. If there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world. Conclusion: If there is beauty in character. There will be peace on the world."

This quote means that the best way to have enthusiasm is to have the best character on school,at home, and on public. People who have good character are respected, admired, and trusted this is because they have shown their best side by always choosing the right and also because of the good character. For example, the woman that worked in the restaurant she wanted to be a nurse but didn't have enough money for the tuition. Since she was the only one who had good character her boss decided to pay her the tuition so that she can achieve her goals. Now she is a nurse and has her bachelor's and masters but she wants to get her doctor of medicine degree which her old boss is trying to pay it for her. I am trying to say that if you behave good, choose the right, and being kind then you can get re payed in a good way for something you need or want. It can bring peace because you are showing that not everyone in the world could be mean and cruel and actually have a good heart. You can bring harmony because you can change the way of a person to a better version which is more nicer, no resentment, and happy.

IDP Reflection

IDP Showcase

Yesterday we had our spring Interdisciplinary project my appointment was at 5:00 p.m. I had to admit I was a little nervous but I remained strong during presenting and did not showed any signs of actually being nervous. I did good on remembering my parts, talking loud, looking at the audience, and not showing sings of nervousness. I feel like I need to talk more when the panel ask questions and actually answer them not only letting my team mates speak. But, overall I feel like if the whole presentation went good. 

Forgive

"When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive."

This quote means that bad things always occur to people which make them angry and deep depression but, the only way to feel relieved id to forgive. Having resentment is bad because it will make you hate and have anger for the rest of your life. But, there is a way to recover and that is forgiveness. Forgiveness can help because it can make you feel relieved and to the other person who did bad to you. Once you learn to forgive and forget you will feel more better and your life will be more happier. Like for example, the guy who was drunk and manslaughter two girls who were age 20, he got 22 years of prison. Until, one of the girls mom learned to forgive and sent him a letter of forgiveness to the murderer, he sent her an apology letter and the girls mom convinced the judge to give him less years. People should learn not to get resentment towards others because things can end up worse and innocent people can be hurt. The best way to get rid of the hate and anger you feel towards someone is like I mentioned before forgiveness and also to open up and let everything they feel. What I mean by that is that they need to get rid of everything bad they have on their spiritual minds and be happy.

Eight Great Reasons to Tell the Truth

1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of misunderstanding ,confusion, or conflict.
2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.
3.Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and getting caught).
5.Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.
6. You don't have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight.
7. You gain a reputation for being truthful- a trait most people value.
8. Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside.

Telling the truth is the most valuable thing to do because you can gain more respect and honor from other people because you are choosing the right. The first on means that telling the truth will help you from getting into a huge problem because you speaking up before it id to late. The second one means that if you tell the truth you are saving an innocent person who had nothing to do with it from getting accused into something serious when they didn't even do anything. The third one means that you will learn a lesson from what you said from just saying the truth. The fourth one means that you will not be punished as bad from the others because you spoke up and said something. The fifth one means that more people will trust you and save you in case you get accused of something you didn't do because everyone believes in your word of honor. The sixth one means to not tell lies because if you keep and keep on lying your lie will get bigger and you will have a lot of guilt that you will end up saying something at the lat minute.

Stand Alone

"Dare to stand alone. Stand up for what is right, even if you stand alone."

This quote means that life is a challenge and you need to stand up or speak up for what is right instead of following the wrong crowd. It is a challenge because people try hard and choose the right avoiding the kinds of bad things people make and get offered to them. An example would be Brooke she is six feet tall, she always chooses the right, and she speaks up for herself. She is a person who doesn't try to fit in on groups and she tries her best to succeed she always chooses the right and try to convince people to not fall in the wrong crowd and gives her friends advice. Brooke would be a good example because she knows how to avoid the challenges teens face today and because she speaks for herself when she sees something she doesn't like. But, some people give up on life challenges and fall for the wrong crowd. An example for this would be a person who always get straight A's but he ended up hanging out with the wrong crowd which caused him to change and become the ctw student. People just give up because they feel like if they want to fit in and because they don't have the courage to stand up. But, if people face those challenges the best way to avoid them would be to brave and speak for yourself doesn't matter which "friends" you loose but you will earn more respect form others.

"I would prefer to fail with honor,than win by cheating"

"I would prefer to fail with honor, than win by cheating."

This quote means that people loosing with pride than winning with guilt. What I mean is that there is nothing bad on winning and loosing because you get what you earn and you will learn to try harder next time or to enjoy the competition. For example, the kid who lost the competition and he went to congratulate his opponent and the dad. This is loosing with honor because nobody else would have the guts and consider this a friendly match or a good win. I feel bad for other people because they don't want to loose always win and decide to cheat. Like the horse ride race he was on fifth place but he used something to shock the horse with for he can get to first place. He did get a first place but, sadly he got caught and has to pay a fine to the police. What people have to learn is that even though they win or loose they are still winners because they tried so hard to get where they are at. There is no need on cheating because they only thing it will do is damage your good reputation and no one will want to talk to you because you are dishonest. All the choices you chose can affect you in the future and it will be worse than what you did, always chose the right.

"If I've got correct goals, and I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I'm going to succeed."

This quote means if you have goals and go after them trying hard to achieve what you really want then, you will succeed. In life there is obstacles people have to go through in order to be successful there, will be ups and downs. But those obstacles are to make you stronger and what I mean is that you have to choose the right in order to avoid going into the right path. Like for example, Dan Dierdorf was a good football player he retired and he became a sportscaster, but the most important thing is that he id a good character who always chooses the right. I used him as an example because he has goals and he tried hard in order to achieve them and be more successful in life. The best way to achieve them will be ignoring all the bad in life.

Good Values

"The most important thing you will ever have is good values."

This quote means that the main key a person will ever earn will be respect. People can earn respect by showing their good character and choosing the right based on how they feel or what they value more. Mostly all of the times values win because you are showing that you have empathy for others but most importantly you will make someone proud. Sometimes feelings can be betraying you because of anger, revenge, or something bad towards other people. But, if they have good values they have to learn to accept the apology and feel bad for the person without making them feel bad or something. For example, a murderer can have some type of revenge toward another person and their feelings are making them to kill that person, while their values are showing them that it is bad to take away someones life. If people want to be respected they just need to learn things to go and be happy, not letting no negatives getting into their positive and spiritual life. This quote fits us as students because for example, their is a test on school and you completely blank out and you see your partner all calmly doing her test and you start to think. What I am meaning is that people have two options like for my example the choices would be you feeling to cheat and get a good grade and the second choice is value you not cheating and earning the grade you deserve by not studying a lot.

An Internal Phenomenon

"The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem"

This quote means that what people earn for choosing the right the right is good character and a good reputation. People earn self respect because they are helping people in need or a whole community. They show integrity because they are showing what type of a person they truly are. For example, if you see a person getting bullied, you feel bad for the person and decide to stand up for him. That person got respect from people because he choose the right and he is showing how loyal he is not only for himself but for others. People also show self-worth because they are proving how much they care for their reputation and how they like it when people care for them. We can show this quote as students by helping others that are struggling with their work, working hard to get good grades, and by always being honest with the students and the teachers. People can get good reward like for example,they can feel happy and great for choosing the right, getting people to respect them, and getting a higher good reputation.
