SCHOOL BREAK DAYS

For the three weeks that we were off from school, I did quite an array of things. Even is I remained at home the entire time. The first week was not filled with many pass time activities. Since my parents were working, I was sent to my grandmothers house with my sister. I remained there the entire week. I did not do much at her home besides watch some movies, watch my sister, read some chapters on The Green Mile by Stephen King. I spent a majority of my first week binge watching shows such as Greys Anatomy, Criminal Minds, etc. All the while I counted down the days left until Christmas Day was to struck. My second week was a bit more hands on. After Christmas I spent many days building a 3D model of the astronomy tower at Hogwarts ( Harry Potter). I had received this as a Christmas gift from my mother and had spent approximately three days building it. Through patience I managed to succeed in assembling it, however I must admit I had become frustrated a great many times. During that second week I also spent time filling in and coloring some patterns on a type of stress relief book. To add a few details of my second week off, I must add I also spent my time using my 5 in one entertainment set I received as another gift. It is an old fashioned styled radio, cassete and cd player, along with a vinyl playing feature, and Bluetooth management. My final week was spent reading up on some novels I had yet to finish. I had also begun to reread the Harry Potter series for the third time. Amongst the three weeks mentioned, I must share two days in particular. One of those days being the day I was taken to the movie theatres to see the movie Star Wars the Last Jedi by my father. I had waited so long to see the film, the wait was greatly worth my while. Another individual highlight was the day I spent with my mother. It was the past Saturday where we woke up early to go to the Barns and Noble bookstore in Long Beach.   I had received a $50 gift card from my godmother and decided to use it well. I bought a total of 4 books, ranging from America's history to bibliography's based of Holocaust victims, and two packets of bookmarks. Although my winter break was not all that exciting, I must admit I was relaxed and did thoroughly enjoy many moments of it.

STUDENT SUCESS STATEMENT

''Goodness is the only investment that never fails.'' - Henry David Thoreau This statement is true. You can never go wrong by doing something right. By helping someone you encourage hope. For example, there is no harm in lending a hand every now and then. You cannot go wrong by being selfless. It is better than anything to think of others before you think of yourself. Always help out anyone whenever you can. You may inspire a chain of acts of kindness. By investing good in humanity, you gain the whole world. Goodness will never do you wrong. 

STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

''ENTHUSIASM MAKES THE DIFFERENCE'' - by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale Enthusiasm does make a difference. If you feel motivated for anything, then your action will not be a bore. If you hold a positive outlook, then anything will have a positive reaction. If you go into school feeling down and prepared to do nothing, then you will amount to nothing at the end of the day. Having a good mindset can take you a long way. I agree with the quote even if I myself am not very enthusiastic at times. Not only will you achieve your goals with enthusiasm, but you will attract others in a social aspect. People prefer someone energetic than to someone who is always blue. There really is a big difference between the negative and the positive. Be happy and the results will show. Put effort into every action you take. Try to limit the negativity in your life. Be enthusiastic by looking at the positive side. Think of the endless possibilities. Leave doubt behind. Keep moving foward

Thanksgiving week

The past week was a week off from school for us students. The last day before break (Friday) I hung out with some old close friends of mine at the mall. We were celebrating her 14th birthday. We had a great time hanging out after such a long time, it was like the old times. The next days that followed I did not do much until Tuesday. Monday was my fathers 35th birthday. We celebrated by going out to eat as a family at this nice sushi restaurant to eat delicious food. My mother gave my dad tickets to go see the lakers play against the Chicago bulls at the staple center as his gift. So on Tuesday after my dad got out of work me and him went to the game. It was my first game ever and I enjoyed it very much. It was a cherish able night to remember with my dad.  Once again the following days had nothing abnormal.. I spent my days at home watching movies, reading and finishing books, and playing with my little sister. Although we wouldn't go out, I still had a good week with my mother an
