Class Evaluation
I enjoyed this class because we learned many valuable things. There were so many inspirational quotes Mr. Haymore showed us. I heard things in a different perspective. I liked how we would research about the medicine department. We were able to explore the many different careers medicine has. It could have been better by learning about different careers as well. I believe i tried my best in this class. I could've tried harder with my typing tutor but other than that I gave it my all. I am committed to being a CTR person. This class has taught me that by being a CTR person you will have success and greatness.

IDP Showcase
I had barely finished writing my flash cards and it was our turn to present next. I wasn't scared at all yet. I didn't even realize i was about to present until i walked to the front of the classroom. We started our power point presentation. It was not good in my opinion. I was the last was to speak. I took a couple of steps i totally forgot how to start off my slide. I tried to remember but i couldn't. I stood there stuttering because i didn't remember how to start off my slide. The creative component was next and we couldn't find it on the computer. I got my flash drive and tried to open it but it wouldn't open i had accidentally deleted the file. I had remembered i sent the imovie to assistant principal, he came towards the computer, logged into his email, and the imovie was there. We played it and we finished after that. 
"Always do right." -Mark Twain

This quote is telling us to always do the right thing. Its best for everybody, doing the right will get you very far in life. Don't follow what other people do unless its the right thing. You rather be alone and independent than to be with a group of people that make you choose the wrong. For example, if you're in a group with people that are always drinking and smoking, it might be fun but it is affecting you. There bringing you down because drinking and smoking is not good. If you're not in a group you rather just be independent stay home and study you will have much more fun in the long run and you will be successful. Don't be around people that will influence you to making bad decisions.

Fear

"if we do whats right, we have no need to fear." -Evan Stephens
This quote is telling us that if we do the right thing you have nothing to fear. Meaning if we always choose the right then everything will go right so we wont have to worry about the bad consequences or the bad things that can happen to us in the long run. For example, if you do all your work, home works, study you will for sure pass the class and you will get accepted into a great university but if you do bad and not try at all, you never study or do anything you will not pass and you wont get into a good college and when you've realized that you have chosen the wrong and that you cant go to a good school the following semester you will regret it.

1. Can people trust me to do whats right?
2. Am i committed to doing my very best?
3. Do i treat people the way i want to be treated?
  
"If the answer to these questions are yes, there is no way you can fail." -Lou Holtz

If your parents, teachers, friends or any adults trust withdoing  the right thing you are one step closer of being a successful person. If someone cant trust you how are you ever going to be a success. You always need to be trusted. Another important thing to becoming a successful person is always try your best no matter what. You have to do your best all the time even if you're tired, don't give up. It will be worth it. So you always have to be committed to doing your best. Treat people the way you want to be treated. Its that simple. If someone is mean to you or she/he is giving you bad attitude be the bigger person and be nice to them. You have to stay humble. Show them that you are not affected by there insults or bad attitudes. If you have these qualities you will for sure be a successful person in the future.

"Kindness is the essence of greatness." -Joseph B. Wirthlin
What this quote is telling us is that kindness is greatness. If you are kind that means you are being a CTR person, you are being nice to someone, and that means you have a warm heart. Why say something mean when you can be nice. If you are kind and humble to other people they will treat you the same. But if you are mean to them and tell them nasty things they will be the same way or even worse to you.  Kindn
ess basiclly leads to greatness in some way. Because if you are kind then nothing is stopping you. Being mean has many terrible consequences. Its always best if you are kind to others. 
My Thanksgiving break was very relaxing. I slept in most of the week. I went hiking in the morning and bowling at night. I went black Friday shopping with my mom. My brother's girlfriend came over so i got to meet her. My sister came to visit for a few days. I watched the 5 season of Pretty Little Liars all over again. I watched college and nfl football. I was a ctr person when I took out my sister to eat and when my brothers money fell and he didnt notice I picked it up for him and I gave it to him. I read the book looking for alaska this week as well. I didn't have much homework so i didn't have to worry about doing it.

"If its not right, do not do it, if its not true, do not say it."

This is telling us that if its not something right/good your about to do then don't do it at all. If something is not true then don't say it. Lying isn't good your are not choosing the right if you are making stuff up. Choosing the right is simple. There are many consequences if you choose the wrong. But if you choose the right you will be rewarded. Don't do something that isn't right and don't make stuff up if you know its not true.

"Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing." -Chick Moorman

Doing the right, the fair, and honorable is much more important than to win or lose. If you win or lose that doesn't matter at all.You always have to chose the right no matter the circumstance or situation. You have to be fair all the time because fairness is very important. Honorable, is also important because being an honorable person is best. If you are a ctr person and you lose you are still a winner because you are a ctr person always.Anyone can be a fair,good,honorable person it just takes time to be a ctr person all the time, but we can do it.

 1. Have the courage to say no.
 2. Have the courage to face the truth.
 3. Do the right thing because it is right                                                                                        
These are 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity


We all have that temptation every once in a while to do the bad thing. No matter how much we want or someone wants us to do the bad thing we have to keep choosing the right. We can tell them no, tell ourselves no. We have to be honest with ourselves and others as well. We have to do the right thing always because it is the right thing to do and doing the right will always take us far in life. No matter how many people are choosing the wrong you still have to choose the right. If your so called friends are doing the wrong dont be around them they are just going to influence you in doing the wrong thing and we dont want that because after a while they wont be here for you. Be around the nice, caring, good influenced people.

Veterans day is a very special holiday. Its when you take the time to realize that so many people got killed to help our country. But it shouldnt just be November 11 where people take the time to remember the people who served. It should be every day not only on Veterans Day. If it wouldnt have been for all the people that served this country would not be what it is today.

We should all choose to have a good name than to be rich. There are many more important things then being rich. We can all be rich but in not the money type of rich but the richness in of a good person. Dont think to much about being rich. Richness doesnt always bring happiness, it can tear people apart.

Right!
         "If your so called friends urge you to do anything you know to be wrong, you be the one to make a stand for right, even if you stand alone. Have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow." - Thomas S. Monson

If your friends are doing something wrong you should say something. Even if you were to be alone that doesnt matter. If they laugh at you for doing the right thing well those are not real friends. You have to always always do the right. If your friends dont respect for what you believe in, or are always doing the right thing then they are not real friends. Make other people do the right thing, you dont have to follow and do the wrong.

Lot of the times it is in the most uncomfortable regions. It’d be a bit getting used to but it definitely would NOT be a challenge for me.
