T E A M W O R K !!

Team isn't based on just one person. Team is based on a lot of people that are willing to help each other, without arguments but just putting everyone's ideas together and combining them to become one huge idea. The reason why I chose this picture is because in football, soccer, volleyball, basketball etc. (in mostly every sport) you need your team. without them there wouldn't be winner. you work together, you stay together. in English class we did a poster on The Hunger Games. We worked as a team and we finished faster than just making two people do it or just one. i think that by working in groups you get more work done, more faster, and it makes it easier for everyone.

Racism, discrimination, hate.... Precious Kowledge

In Lak Ech
Tú eres mi otro yo
You are my other me.
Si te hago daño a ti
If I do harm to you,
Me hago daño a mí mismo
I do harm to myself;
Sí te amo y respeto
If I love and respect you,
Me amo y respeto yo
I love and respect myself.

this poem has more meaning to it than just what you see here. When I saw the movie Precious Knowledge it got to me as an AB-540 students it isn't easy watching these type of things.Trying to keep your education isn't a crime. people should get their acts together and think right. If a student is motivated by learning things from their past like where do they come from, I personally think that is okay. The teachers aren't teaching the students to hate America but they are teaching the student the history.

what if.....

What if i were to blame you for every bad decision i made? what if you were someone i look up to, and because you said something and i went ahead and committed a crime; and now they blame you. how would you feel? i know what you would say "well it isn't my fault she did it, just because i said something doesn't mean she should do it. I read an article that Marilyn Manson wrote about himself and how he feels about the media. In 1999 they accused him that because of he's music two students killed other students. The world has gone crazy and all they do is blame each other for our own fault. We need to get our act together and stop blaming others for our actions.

OH NO! WILL HE MAKE IT?

Now that I got your attention....  I will explain what a cliff hanger is. first thing, it is a story telling device. it leave the reader hungry encouraging the reader to keep reading. A cliff hanger includes dramatic scenes, suspense and excitement.An example of a cliff hanger is like in the book of "The Hunger Games" where they announce that two tributes can win. Also when Peeta reveals his love for Katniss is a suspenseful moment because we want to know how the crowd acts and how she acts.

My American Dream..

Many people have their own American dreams, my American dream is to open up a foster home and help other people, and my community. I think that my American dream isn’t hard to achieved, all I have to do is finish College with good grades and a good record. Also finish a 4 year college and finish that. The government can help me because the United States protects the children so they can help me out by that. In conclusion everyone achieved their dreams by beleiving in them selfs and by having their rights. The women got the right to vote and up to this point they all have equality with everyone. The children’s have educations now and go to school every year for 8 months, for 5 days a week. They have many opportunities too. The union workers have their own rights and their works are safe now, and they get paid good.

Lesson worth knowing..

I've learned many lessons through out my whole life. In the SRP though, taught me many lessons that I will put in practice and keep in mind. One lesson that caught my attention is the victim vs. the creator. That catch my attention because i used to be a victim, i would always put excuses and complain. After reading what that meant and being a scholar i knew i had to stop and that this was the real deal. No more "i forgot my homework," or "i got home late and i fell asleep". I knew i needed to step it up and become a creator.

a new Chapter in my life..

My summer begins a little like this "ah dang it, i don't have vacation, i have to start the SRP this Monday coming up!" That was me June !3, to be honest i was upset i wasn't going to have vacations.  I was upset over the fact my friends went to the beach without me and all these fun things i heard. Now i think about it and say "i am lucky i have the SRP, i will be ahead of everyone else, i won''t be shy, i have an update on professors and I know most of the students already." The SRP is to help me gain more knowledge and to become a creator and not a be a victim.
