Finals Week

I'm soo excited for this coming week. I don't have to take finals! That means that I don't have to be at school half the day Tuesday, all Wednesday and Thursday. I am so excited. I think this policy is great. It rewards the student that has good attendance and punishes the student with terrible attendance. All in all, I don't have to be in school. I need a break and a change. Also, I am so ready for summer. This year has been going by super fast but I am still ready for summer. I am also sick of the cold weather. It would be different if we have already had a snow day but it is almost February and we have not had a snow day yet. I'm am so excited for a break from school this week.

Intelligence

Intelligence is your capacity for learning or understanding or even reasoning. In this day and age, I think that intelligence is what gets you along in life. I'm not saying that if your not smart, you are not going to get anywhere in life but if you have the "brains" to become a doctor, lawyer, etc. you will go places in life. Let me explain myself . . . if you become someone like this, you will make quite a bit of money and then you can use this money to raise a family, explore this world, etc. So I am saying that if you are intelligent, use it to get a good job to make some money. I'm not saying that you should be greedy and love money, but there are so many people in this world that are poor and you can use this money to give to them along with supporting yourself. I probably got off on a little tangent but this is why I believe that if you have the gift of intelligence in certain areas, use it.

Stressed

I guess that I'm writing this post because I did not have any better ideas but right now I am kind of stressed. I am finishing up like a 600 point project for history, I have two away swim meets this week, I won't have any time to get my work done, I have a huge history test coming up that I don't know anything about . . . the list is endless. I am sure everybody feels like this sometimes but right now I just want the semester to be over with. I am really sick of school right now and I am sooo looking forward for summer. Also, the cold whether is kind of stressful. You look outside and you can almost feel how cold it is. It SUCKS. I hate the cold weather. I am just kind of rambling on right now so I will just end my post.

Work Ethic

Your work ethic decides many things. It decides if you get an A on your project, if you get your chores done, if you get into the college you want, or whether you get the job you want. For example, if you don't prepare yourself for a job interview, you are not going to get the job. This is why your work ethic decides everything. No one can decide what your work ethic is going to be except for you. Having good work ethic can be time consuming but pays off in the long run. Everyone hates doing homework, but if you take your time and do a good job, your grade will reflect. Same with a test. If you rush through it, you are not going to get the grade that you want. This is why your work ethic is so important.
