Calculators

This is sooo random, but I figured that I needed to add a random post to my blog so I decided to say a few words about calculators. I saw my calculator lying next to me and I thought . . . well . . . that will be a good post. So, calculators are sooo helpful. If we didn't have calculators, I wouldn't be able to survive. Whoever invented them is a genius. I probably use my calculator at least a dozen times a day. There are so many things that a calculator can do to save you sooo much time. In math . . . you can graph equations on the calculator instead of having to graph them by hand. It is soo cool. You probably think that I'm stupid for all that I'm saying but I just wanted to blog about something random partly because I didn't know what to blog about.

Courage

Courage is bravery. It is doing something that is difficult without fear. If we didn't have courage, we wouldn't be able to get through our everyday lives. There are sooo many examples in my life where I use courage to get through something. One example is from our first swim meet this last Thursday. I was soo nervous for it. I thought that I wasn't going to have enough energy or that I was going to mess something up on my stroke. But, I kept telling myself that I was going to survive and that I should just jump in and do my best. If I didn't have courage, I would have probably not accomplished what I did. Bravery is hard to have, but you know that having bravery will always help you out in tough times.  These are my thoughts about courage.

Leadership

Leadership is such an important concept. I don't even know where to start with this. Every little club, group, school, work place, and even your lunch table has a leader. At work you have your boss which you have to respect and obey. At your lunch table, you have the leader that every body follows and thinks is really "cool". Leadership can be misused too. For example, your group of friends always does the same thing every day as always. One day the boy that always says what to do pulls out some pot and starts smoking it and passing it around. You know you shouldn't take a puff but everyone else it. This is where leadership is misused. Leadership is also very important. It is what keeps churches leading in the correct direction, businesses managing their funds, etc. Leadership is great and an important postition but can be misused.

SNOW!

I was sooo ready for a big snow storm! Unfortunately it had to come during the weekend and not during school days. I like snow for about a month but then I really get sick of it. It gets cold and you can't go outside unless you freeze your butt off. But I really love SNOW DAYS. Who doesn't? I like the feeling of being in your house and there is this gigantic blizzard going on around you. I think that it is really cool but might sound really weird. Car crashes pretty much stink when the snow comes. We were going up this hill and the car in front of us started sliding down. We got out of the way but the car hit a different car. It was kind of funny but I felt bad for the person at the same time. I also love snow because then you can go skiing. I'm alright at it but not the greatest. Snow has its pros and cons but I was totally ready for a big storm.
