The Last Lecture

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

This is a really good quote because if you choose the right your life would be a lot better but if you think that CTW is good then you're wrong because choosing the wrong doesnt get you anywhere but jail/losing something/someone that you really care about. For example JamesOn Curry was so much better than Stephen Curry when they were in high school. Just because JamesOn CTW he lost everything and while he was out selling drugs and that cost him a lot, and because of the drugs he got arrested.Stephen was always practicing trying to get better and better and now look at him, he is an amazing basketball player in the NBA. You might think that there would not be any consequences for choosing the wrong but there will always be consequences for both CTW and CTR.  So always be a CTR person because like the quote says “ You will go far with CTR.”

Eight Great Reasons

Eight Great Reasons to Tell the Truth -Barbara A. Lewis

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.

I think that this is a good quote because telling the truth is a huge trait and a lot of people get lied to just to either be protected or make them feel good. I personally think that telling the truth is a loving act, honestly anyone can tell you the truth it's just a matter of if they want to tell you the truth or they just don't because they think that the truth is too harsh and they don't want to see you hurt. But also some people that you think like you and you think are your friends might just lie to you because they like to either see you hurt or they just like hurting you so they might tell you the truth but it might not be the whole truth. Always tell the truth because telling the truth especially to one of your loved ones or a friend because it shows that you really care about them and you don't want to lie to them because then if they find out the truth they might lose trust on you and you wouldn't want that to happen, so always tell the truth not just because it's the right thing but because you might feel good and you might the other person feel better because you told them the truth even if it was good or bad.

Phillip Riggs Four Success Tips

1. Work Hard.
2. Follow your passions. Do things you are interested in doing.
3. Don’t chase after money.
4. Serve others. Do good things for others, and good things will come to you.

I think that what he is saying is very clear because if you work hard to get what you want and to be what you want you will always be delighted to get up every morning to go to work because you know that it's something that you are passionate about. Always do what you think you were put on this earth to do, because at the end of the day no one is ever satisfied  with anything so don't worry about making others happy, worry about what makes you happy because after all it is your life not anyone else's. I feel that i was put on this earth to show people that i can sing and that i can make it to where i want to be. But now the really question is , why do you think you were on this earth…?

“ 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 are popular; you make them because they’re right.” - Theodore Hesburgh

I think that this quote is saying that just because something looks better or more affordable than the one that you really want you're not gonna get that one because you know that it's not right. For example if they were to make me choose between something that's popular and something that isn't so popular, i honestly won't go with the popular choice because just because it's the popular choice i don't want to be the person that looks like a follower because i'm not i go for what is right not for what others say is best.

 Singing

  Music to me is the thing that takes me to my happy place. We all listen to music when were mad, sad,happy ect... But the one thing that i do so i can really express what i'm feeling or what i have the urge say but cant find the right way to say it is sing. That has been my passion ever since i was a little girl, i honestly do go a day without singing. I can honestly say that i am a professional bathroom singer, i know it might sound funny but its the truth i sing in the shower everyday so its like i am having my own concert in the shower. 

   When people ask me, "what do you want to do when you finish high school?" I usually say go to a great university and or i say i want to be a singer, but i mean we all have the right to dream right. They ask me why a singer why not a doctor or anything else? I say because when i sing i feel free and that is how i get rid of anger and my sadness or even when i'm happy i always sing because it is what i love to do. I dont think that i will ever stop singing because if it wasnt for singing i dont know what i would do.

Student Success Statement 

"Only those live who do good." - Count Leo Tolstoy

People that live are the ones that do good in life and those who don't do that good aren't really living. 

Student Success Statement 

" You cant be right by doing wrong ,you cant be wrong by doing right." 

-Thomas S Monson

I like this quote because its true, you cant be right by doing something wrong and you cant be wrong by doing something right. Its like when you are having an argument with someone and you know your right but that person doesn't either believe or doesn't want to listen to you so you decide to make them believe you and listen to you by doing something wrong doesn't mean that, that person would want to believe you anymore because you decided to do something wrong just to prove that you were right the whole time. You also cant be wrong by doing right because if you do something right and that person still thinks that your wrong well it would be the other way around because how would they expect you to do something right be wrong.

Student Success Statement 

"I wasn't trying to leave a legacy, i was trying to do what was right." 

- Dean Smith 

This isn't going to be a reflection, I want to talk about who everyone loved and looked up to Dean Smith they didn't just look up to him because he was a great coach because there are great coaches everywhere in the world. They loved him because he was such an amazing person he always tried doing what was right he never cared about the difference in skin color he always tried to make them feel equal. 

Karma will take care of itself.

" Its not about how to achieve your dreams. Its about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the RIGHT WAY, the karma (destiny,fortune,good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you." - Dr. Randy Pausch 

I think what this quote is saying is that if you lead your life in the right direction then from there and on it will be also more easier to try accomplish your dreams will eventually come to you because its not about " oh i have to make my dreams come true ," its about trying so just try and if you think your leading your life in the right direction then go for it. 

     Student Success Statement 

"Take responsibility for YOUR OWN body, mind, and spirit,

for your own physical, mental, and spiritual well-being."

-Mr. Haymore 

I think that this quote because i think that you should take responsibility for your own body , mind, and spirit, but also for your own physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. You can do that by living a healthy life . You cant sit around waiting for someone to save you because if you are doing that then your just waiting your time, because its not anyone's job to help you but yourself. So take responsibility for yourself.

The Goal of True Education 

"Intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character,

that is the goal of true education." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

I like this quote because it teaches you that if you want to be successful you have to not only be intelligent but you also need to have good character. Having good character can tell so much about you it can tell what kind of person you are and if you are committed to what you need to do, but when they find out that you are not really that intelligent they might just say that you are a great person with great character but your not that intelligent for the job that we need to have done. Always make sure that you have a good character and that you are smart because if you have that you will e very successful in life.

Student Success Statement

"We need the courage to START and CONTINUE 

what we should do, and the courage to STOP 

what we shouldn't do." - Richard L. Evans 

We all need the courage to start,continue,or stop something that we should or shouldn't do. Honestly sometimes the things that are wrong fell so right but we also need to know that when it starts to feel wrong we have to do something to stop it or just try to make it right. We all get into certain situations sometimes where we have to choose between either starting something or if you already started it you might need to choose between continuing or stopping the situation. You need that courage because if you don't have that courage then it would be a lot harder to stop/start doing something that you know may/may not ruin your life. Always do what you feel is right but just make sure that you think through it very carefully,and if its what you think is right then go for it but if not stop don't continue it and do whats right. Try to be a CTR person because choosing the right can always help you find that courage.

Student Success Statement

" When you Tell One Lie,

it leads to Another"  - Paul Hatch 

I agree with Paul Hatch because its really true. For example if you have a girlfriend/boyfriend and you tell them that they mean everything to you and that you'll do whatever it takes so you guys can be together but you do not mean it you just say it so that he/she can be happy and so they can say "oh he/she really likes me". After that your going to think oh let me tell him/her this just so she can still think i am telling her the truth. When we lie it might seem that it doesn't effect a person but in reality it does people we can make them think one thing but your thinking/ saying another thing. I know because i have lied and i and i have been lied too and lets be honest being lied too is not fun well in certain situations. The truth can hurt one thousand times more but its better to tell the truth then to tell and lie and then tell another lie just, or we might lie so much that that we do not even notice it. Telling someone the truth is always the best thing to do . 

School Break Days 

During my break i did not really do much. My mom took my cousin and i to the movies to go see the movie  " The Forest"  which was pretty confusing so you have to pay really good attention so you can understand it but,it was also super scary i was kind of covering my eyes because i felt that something/someone was going to pop up and sometimes it did and sometimes it didn't. I was practically home all break i would only go out when it was a holiday or someones birthday. For Christmas i went to my aunts but it didnt really feel like Christmas this year for me i dont know why. For New Year i went to my brothers house because he had a New Years Eve party which was so much fun but it was just super cold.
