Cactus and Succulent Arrangements

        One of my favorite things to do is planting succulent and cactuses in ceramic or terracotta pots, at the moment I have done at least thirty or so pots. I often like grouping the cactuses with a succulent that is called sempervivium tectrorum, or also known as "Hens-and-Chicks". I chose those because they are the most robust succulent species. When I plant all these different types of cactuses and succulents, it is most important for me to wear gloves, particularly the kinds that do not let the needles or thorns pass through it and puncture my skin. However, the end results of all the pots leave me feeling accomplished, knowing that my arrangements came out the way I had planned them to  come out. I one day want to do get into pottery so I can design  and create my own pots.

Summer Vacation

    My last summer as a high school student, I spent it with my younger sisters and taking trips to San Diego Lego land and Zoo. Before I took those trips I was at home watching over my sisters for the summer. I had to since my grandmother had left to El Salvador for a whole month. My parents felt that I was old enough to watch over my sisters for the span of four weeks. During that duration of time, I took the initiative to read as much books as I can. I read six books in the course of four weeks, a mix of fiction and nonfiction. My favorite book from the summer was I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, by Maya Angelou. I read it along with the audio so it felt like I was watching a movie in my mind. I felt it was important for me to continue reading since I did took the challenge of asking for AP Literature, I was hesitant at first, I heard from my peers that it was extremely difficult, and not everyone should take it. But when I heard Mrs.Van Hill explain that it is important for us in our last year of being a high school student that we should attempt to challenge ourselves academically so we can be somewhat use to the future workloads that we can experience in college.

“You will go far with CTR”- Mr. Haymore

   As the final quote of this school year I will follow it. I have learned that not everything in life is going to go your way but the least you can do is make the right choices so that it would go the right way. I have also learned that when you really try to do something it will happen but you just have to be patient. It’s all about hard work and dedication. Not only that but you must be prepared to do what’s right in any time given. It’s like you’re a superhero and your power is the ability to choose the right. In conclusion this year I have talked about how choosing the right can benefit you and how it’s one of the choices you have because you always have choices. I also learned that we must value what we are being taught because if a person tells you something it’s for a reason. In other words they learned the hard way why not to do certain things. For example if your parent tells you to take advantage of your education, do it because they would love to get a second chance to fix that problem. So when your teacher tells you to choose the right you just do it because they want the best for you. So always remember to be a CTR person and choose the right 24/7.  I think a good way to do CTR is to whenever in any bad or crossroads situation it is best to follow the right.

                 

Class Evaluation

Things that enjoyed being in computer class block 8  taught by Mr.Haymore is that I learned more than computers. Of course, we learned how to properly type, create spreadsheets, make a blog, how to code and many more. But he also gave us life advice that for some of us, changed our view on the world and how to treat others. One of things I will never forget about is CTR (choose the right) this is a statement that is lifetime help for any situation, because you will be always choosing the right. With him making us do a powerpoint and presentation on choosing the right and overall goodness it made me have to research on amazing people. Furthermore, on what means to have  a good in soul, mind, heart and body. He also made it nice to have class discussions on the success statement quote which made us go more in depth with the quote.

I can’t find anything I don’t like about this class really. Probably the thing I wish we could have more time on is our life journals. I like reading my goals. Also I like reviewing my past victories, it gives me a boost of determination knowing that I can accomplish my goals. If I put my mind onto it I know I can do it.

Ways to improve the class is to probably to continue emphasizing on CTR in our curriculum. I personally enjoyed the student success statements because they made me want to strive to be the best person I can be. To add, they are good things for future freshmen to start knowing about. It can help them start their high school year great. It could help those who need that inspiration in their lives to do good, because when you do good, you feel good. Lastly it can help with learning how to correctly type.

The highlight for me in this class for me was the student success statements. That is because I learned quotes that can be of lifetime use. They were all good quotes to live by. My favorite one was by Thomas Monson. I think he was the first student success statement I ever did. I like when Mr. Haymore gave us real life examples of these.

I think I did best, but there always can be improvement on somethings. I think I got better at typing. I think so because I'm remembering the keys better now than before I started taking this class. I really tried my best in everything else. I will always be improving my typing skills. Also continue with my life planning journal.

Yes I am reading my journal every couple of days to remember what I'm trying to reach for. When I feel a sense of doubt I know I can always look back at it. The journal is a life time commitment. Which I strive to keep. I think I can continue it for all my life.

I am committed to keeping on being a CTR person because it will only make me a better person. If there is other people following to be a CTR person it will only make the world a better place. Anyone can do it, at any age. Hopefully CTW people will one day follow CTR because CTW is a downward path.

   “THE ULTIMATE CHOICE is to be a CTR Person-to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT 24/7!!!”

                                                            Mr. Haymore

The statement is telling us to always do the right thing, and at all times. That it is a good choice to make with yourself and others. To be CTR is to to do what is good in your heart. The beauty of choosing the right is that it has so many benefits and it could never go wrong. You get all you want when you choose the right you just have to wait and be patient for it to happen. Overall I learned and have reflected that it takes a lot of courage to make the right choices and sometimes you good deed may not be noticed but you are somehow rewarded. It’s something that I will never forget and someday because of this choice things will be okay.

                                                            Character

       If there is beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.

                                                           Conclusion:

If there is beauty in character, there will be peace in the world.

                                                   Chinese Proverb

We have peace within and a astounding character then you can move on to the world. This is because if you don’t have the character for peace how can you make others believe in it or want it. An example would be people who talk about peace and how great it is but when they go home at the end of the day they are mad. They start to fight with their family and that doesn’t bring peace. If we want peace we must start with who we are and what we do. Then we continue to the people around us and make them see this too. After that you move on to bigger groups and when people see that it truly is possible they will believe in peace. Not only that but they will put in their everyting to accomplish it.
