Ten indian commandments

I think the indians are crazy for having these as commandments. I would have at least thought there would be more things about spirits. But apparently not. So today 4/28/17 is friday and we come out early. And mr.haymore is making us do this. Why? Is it because we have different skin color? Why? Is it because he claims to have nothing against black people yet whenever he talks about them it ends up being something bad. And how is bin laden's death beautiful? So may questions. Off topic. But my point is why would the indians have this. I believe that they have them because they wanted to have something keep their leader and themselves in check. For example, the leader goes rogue and sells native land to white hillbillies. What are the rest of the indians going to do? Absolutely nothing. Why you ask. Well because commandment number 3 says show respect to others. Which basically means if he did that he had a reason to do it. So no one is going to disrespect him by calling him stupid.

“A promise must never be broken.”

~Alexander hamilton

He is trying to say don’t break the only thing that you can have for a long time. For example let's say you promised your mom not to lie. This means that no matter how bad a lie is you can not break your promise and lie. Some bad consequences are not being able to go out with friends or not being able to be outside your house. And i won't type my personal story because then i'm gonna have to talk to the teacher/counselor. And it's really not important to talk about unless you are being really creepy and want to know everything about a person. This is no one else's by the time the teacher reads this he will have assigned me detention. Because a mexican can not type that fast according to him.👽👽👽

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”

~henry david thoreau

I think this statement means that wasting time and money isn't worth as much as goodness is. For example if you buy drugs. Such as marijuana you are spending $10 per gram. It may cost a little bit more depending what type. But at the end it isn't worth it. Because now you have no money, fake friends, less brain cells, and now you smell weird. What this is trying to say is don't spend your time and money in stupid things like drugs or luxuries.

"My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular; you make them because they're right"
Theodore Hesburgh
(Former President of Notre Dame

I agree with this reflection for the reason that decisions should be made because they are right not because they are popular or poor decisions. Everyone must know the difference between right and wrong and base their decisions on that. This also goes back to the last student success statement we did about how we should make bad choices unpopular and good choices popular. This goes to say that everyone should understand when they are doing wrong. everyone should understand when they are doing right as well. If everyone understood the difference then we would not have to worry about people making poor choices in life. And maybe even then we could all learn to become one and there will not be so much hatred in the world.

“It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound.”

~Joseph smith

What this quote means is that you have to make everything that sounds bad and make it bad. And everything that sounds good make it good. Always do something that is good never do something that is bad. Never lie because it will make you seem like a bad person. If you tell the truth people will have more trust in you. So for example if someone needs you to take care of something valuable they would trust you. Always have something good to say about you not something bad.

Spring break

All i did for spring break was have fun. I got to go with my uncle to see power rangers. Which was a pretty great movie. I also went with my dad and got to see “ghost in  the shell” and i saw “C.H.I.P.S”. they were both pretty great. I went to work with my dad from 7am - 6pm. After i got home from work i did my homework. Right after doing my homework i would take a shower. And watch some tv after my shower. If not i would go skate outside with my friends after i took a shower. I also went to the beach with my friends. I got to see many of my elementary friends at the fair. I started talking with my elementary friend and set a date to hang out. I also got to see my friend “ivan” at the store and talked with him. I got the chance to go run with a group in L.A that is called “Rundalay”. They are really fun they treat you like family they also motivate you to keep running. I had a blast this spring break.

“Character is higher than intellect.”

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

What this quote means is that if you have good character it pays off.If you do good things good things might happen in return.If you don't have good character it will not pay off it will just ted to get worse and worse.Everyone has intelligence others have more intelligence than others but everyone is some type of smart.No matter how bad you might be everyone is smart in their own way. Ralph Waldo Emerson believes that there is some type of smart in everyone.No matter how intelligent you are you can still be a ctw person and that it doesn't matter how smart you are because you can be a not so smart person and but you can have a good character and that is more important than being smart. I rather play with someone that is a ctr person and not that smart than to play with someone that is smart but chooses the wrong.

“I trust that my hard work will pay off.”

~Tyler haws

What this quote means is that if you work hard everything will pay off and you will have a good life.If you play a sport and work hard and go to practice all  the time you may move up to varsity.Or if you are in varsity you may become the team captain and get medals and awards for all your hard work.If you want to get far in life, you have to work hard. You have to be determined and never give up. There will be days where everything goes wrong but don’t ever give up. If you’ve failed today, start again tomorrow. Make a new plan that’ll help you reach your goal/s. If you work hard you’ll eventually get to where you want to get. For example our student body president, Janeth, she worked hard to get that spot. She always wanted to win an election and be president of a school and now she is all because she never gave up on herself. Never give up on yourself, if you work hard you will achieve great things. Janeth also has straight A's and has gotten accepted to many colleges/universities. She has accomplished this by working hard and doing her best in everything. If you want to be the next president, start working on it right now. Take baby steps, do things that’ll help you with that. You can accomplish anything as long as you set your mind to it and as long as you’re determined and you work hard. Great things will come your way when you start doing those things. It’s going to be hard, nobody said it would be easy but one thing for sure is that it’ll be totally worth it.
