1. I liked how Mr. Haymore always had a quote for us each time we had this class, and he explained thoroughly what it meant.

2. I didn't like typing tutor because although i don't type perfectly i am okay with that

3. I feel like if you influence the students SO MUCH in being a great student and going to college some might just want to do the opposite

4. Every day was a highlight for me. I learned so much in this class it made me think of what i want for my self in the future

5. I know I was capable of doing much better, i had a bad attitude some days which is not good at all

6. I write for 5 min daily in my life planning note book, i re read what I want for myself later in life.

7. Yes, I a committed to being a CTR person all the time. Choosing the right benefits you a thousand times more.

8. To never let other people come between you not being successful, or for you not choosing the right thing to do

9. I will always remember how Mr. Haymore believed in each one of us, he always told us that we were capable that we can be great human beings

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

As long as you always chose the right you will be successful. Nobody should ever prevent you from choosing the right 24/7. Distant yourself from the people that will bring you down with them. Make yourself be better in every aspect of life. Instead of dreaming what you want to do in the future make it a goal and accomplish it. Everyone is capable of being extraordinary, not everyone is willing to work hard for it. Be determined, work hard, accomplish your goals. Be successful. Do great things with your life. Be confident and choose the right. Always.

Challenges Teens Face Today

Something that a teenager might stress about nowadays is bullying. Cyber bullying, verbal bullying, and even physical bullying. I go through many problems at home so most of the time i am very moody, but I tell myself that the problems you’re facing now won’t mean nothing in a couple of years or even months. Being a CTR person helps you overcome any obstacle that comes across your life because as long as you do the right thing ALL the time you will have nothing to worry about. We can give teens that are have a tough time advice, telling them that maybe what they’re going through isn’t something they should actually be stressing about.

Greater Values

Malik Stewart is a high school wrestler who goes compete at state champions, although he loses he still goes shakes the other teammates and his father’s hand as well. He was not angry with them. He acted extremely humble about it. Both contestants were great but one did it better than the other. Roman Chapa was in a horse riding race but he wanted to win so bad that he decided to cheat. He electrocuted his horse just so it could go faster, and when they caught him he still lied and denied that he had not done that. Don't be a Roman chapo, such a bitter person. Be a Malik Stewart, kind and humble.

“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating” -Sophocles

It is better to lose honorably and fairly than to win by cheating. If you lose fairly then at least you tried and gave it you all. You are only cheating yourself if you win by cheating/ copying. If you keep failing don’t give up, keep trying your best until you reach your goal.  

Texting teen drivers

1. Teens texting and driving is a serious health issue

4. $20 fine for your first time, each time after thats is $50

“If I’ve got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I’m going to succeed.” -Dan Dierdorf

Everyone is capable of being great, anybody can be successful if you chose the right pathway. Set a goal for yourself and make sure you accomplish it. Whether they’re short term or long term goals.

An Internal Phenomenon

“The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self esteem.” -Dr. Laura Schlessinger

Reward’s are not always about getting a gift, or getting money. A reward can be just making someone else feel better or being honest or just working hard.

The Right Thing

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing” -Theodore Roosevelt

Always choose the right. Even if there will be a negative consequence to it, it is still the right thing to do. You will feel good about yourself when you decide to do the right thing.

Do the right thing at the right time

“It’s a great moment when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time.” -Pam Knox

 

You have to have courage, having courage will be beneficial. If someone is always scared to stand up for themselves or simply speak up you are not being a CTR person. For example, if a friend tells you to go smoke with them but you know that isn’t the right thing to do you have to speak and firmly say ‘NO’, but if you’re scared and say ‘yes’ you are not being brave, and you aren’t being an assertive person. Stand up for yourself, have pride. Don’t be a follower. You do you.

  “I have been asked what I mean by ‘Word of Honor’. I will tell you: Place me behind prison walls- walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground- there is a possibility that in some way or another I might be able to escape; but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross it. Can i get out of that circle? No, never! I’d die first” -Karl G. Maesar

This quote is trying to tell us to never break our promise if we give our word to someone then we have to accomplish it and not let them down. They trusted us and if we don’t keep our word then it’s possible that they will our trust. We always have to keep our word no matter the circumstance. For example, if a friend asked you to help them wash their car on a certain day and time it is your responsibility to be there. If you decide you don’t want to go or something came up you are still breaking the promise. No excuses.
