Showcase Adventure

Wow! Where do I begin, my showcase experience was amazing it went absolutely great. Although our presentation was great we did have problems before the actual presentation. We faced a lot of problems before we were back of top. Early in the project we were assigned group members in our English class and we were also given our question which was, “Should students in grades 9th-12th be required physical education,” now at first we thought that this was going to be a piece of cake but oh brother it wasn’t. At first we all agreed that it shouldn’t  be required because c’mon  what junior or senior wants to take physical education in their last two years of high school where they should be focusing on getting work done to go to college. So as we started to begin on the PowerPoint and the essay we began to realize that finding evidence and graphs to support this was not easy so we began to stress because days were going by and we still hadn’t accomplished anything, even teachers would come up to us and say why are you going against it when it would be much easier to go for it, which even put more stress on us because now we were so far along the project that it was going to be a risk going for it now and throwing everything we did away. When the project was like a week away we finally just said lets go for it. We quickly just told everyone in our group hey! Look we decided to go for it and we need everyone’s part done by the next time we meet. At the end we did have all our parts done and ready to go we had our PowerPoint and essay done and all we were waiting for was to present. We the day of the presentation came oh man I was nervous I walked into the class with my group we were all dressed and ready except that one of our group members didn’t show up so e had to present her part. When we were done we felt we did great and that the monkey on our back was off our back. We ended up getting a 3 out of 4 which was pretty much a B.

“When I do good, I feel good.
When I do bad, I feel bad.”
I completely agree with this quote because it’s true when do something bad I feel bad and I feel regret and it stays in my conscious but when I do good I feel good, like when I do good I feel like I’ve rewarded myself by doing good.

For example being dishonest and disobeying my mom is something bad because I’m, showing her that I’m disrespectful which I shouldn’t do but when I do good thing like cleaning my room and doing chores I feel good.

Pay the Price
Patrick was a little boy who chose the wrong and decided to disobey is parents about putting on his shoes and taking a walk in the dessert, instead he decided that scandals were much like shoes and wore his scandals. On his walk there was a scorpion lurking and stung his leg causing excruciating pain to his leg. As cries roar out of him, his parents rushed towards him and jumped into the car to drive two hours to the local hospital were the doctor cured him of the pain in 24 hours. Now Patrick knows and understands that when he is told about anything he should just follow that or incidents like this one can happen as a result of his disobedience.

“Always do right”

When you tell One Lie it leads to another
Paul Hatch
When you tell one lie, it leads to another       So you lie and lie without even trying
So you tell two lies to cover each other             And each lie you tell will keep
Then you tell three lies and, Oh Brother,                            multiplying
You’re in trouble up to your ears                    ‘Till the whole wide world will know
So you tell four lies to try to protect you                             you’re lying
Then you tell five lies so folks won’t suspect                     Then you’ll be
You                                                                                         Suspected
Then you tell six lies and you’ll collect                                  Detected
A life filled with memories and fears                                      Rejected
‘Cause you can’t remember how many lies                            Neglected  
You’ve told                                                                              Disliked
And half the things you say aren’t true                                And you should!
And sometime you’ll slip up                          When you lie, you’re closing the door        
And then                                                                          on everything good                        

Whatever will become of you?

“When you Tell One Lie it leads to Another”
Paul Hatch

This world is covered with lies that now it’s hard to know if the person you’re close to are someone you can trust. We practically live in a world of lies. That’s why it’s bad to lie; lying is just another way of getting into trouble. So it’s better to tell the truth weather it is good or bad so that you avoid yourself from lying.

Thanksgiving and its History

Thanksgiving is a holiday is a celebrated across the U.S., but did you know that when it was first celebrated in 1621 that the Plymouth colonist didn’t celebrate it year after year like how it is now. Let me give you a little summary of how Thanksgiving became a national holiday. In 1621 the Plymouth colonist who settled here from England were looking to sail to freedom to practice their own faith began to settle to the “New World”. The colonist first celebrated Thanksgiving to reward themselves of a successful harvest they grew and with that they invited the local Wampanoag Indians to celebrate their achievements with a three day long feast that included eating, hunting, and entertainment.
12 things that I am thankful for
1.  Family
2.  Education
3. Friends
4. My teachers
5. Good health
6. Able to be alive
7. Having a roof over my head
8. Having the support for me when I need it
9. For my grades
10.                  Having food in my house
11.                  My teammates

Kindness is Key
There are many ways to show acts of kindness because kindness comes in many different ways. I think the boy from Contras high school had to have shown the biggest act of kindness because there was a boy with a mental disorder who loved basketball and always dreamed of playing with his teammates but never could because of his disorder. But what he didn’t know was that his coach was going to put him in the game. Although the thunder birds were winning by 15 all the shots that were passed to Mitchell he would miss but it would be at that point that his love of basketball would become much more when the boy from Contras  passed the ball to Mitchell even though they were on opposite teams, Mitchell would get the ball and score ending the game with a victory and having everyone from the stands rush down to him with joy. And because ball is life he can still love basketball.
