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

- Chick Moorman

Reflection: Many times when I play a game online, I have to race people that love to cheat. When I am passing them up they like to hit the bottom right or left of my car to execute a PIT maneuver and I get frustrated because I don't cheat. I always drive behind them to catch the draft and quickly pass them up. I really don't like cheating when I play any type of game. When I win, I like to have an honorable win; something you have to earn and play fair for.

SSS #49

"Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself."

- Henry Ward Beecher 

Reflection: You should always do more than what is expected. Say if someone wants you to score 15 points in a game of basketball. You would want to strive to score 15 points and once you get there you should have the feeling to score more and more and soon enough you would score 28 points in one game. You should never think that you are exempt from anything less. Always trying your hardest and you know how hard you can work. Fill that potential till the end.

Friday Agenda

                I really like the assembly this morning because it had many of our beloved teachers making fun of the way that some students behave in school. I found it funny when there was skits such as the one where a student paints graffiti on the wall and gets in trouble and has to clean then the other students are making fun of him because he has to clean. The way I will follow the rules is not taking my phone out as much during class. Other than that I believe that I follow the rules and I am well behaved.

Student Success Statement #42

"The best inspiration is not to outdo others, but to outdo ourselves." 

- Anonymous Author

Reflection: I sometimes look to the goal of trying to beat others because when one thinks of setting goals its good to do better and better than what you have done the previous time. But when I comes to making yourself stand out, you have to find what other have not done yet and surpass them. There is certain situations in which one is better than the other but there will never be a time where one will always be better than the other.

Student Success Statement #39

"Try a little harder to be a little better."

- Gordon B. Hinckley

Reflection: This is my mentality when I am working out. I always try a bit better everytime when I run my 3 miles. I always tell myself to run for a bit longer or to do longer strides to get better and better times. Doing a bit better everytime would get you a great increase in performance in the long run. I always work a bit harder everyday to see my growth in the future.

Licensed Practical Nurse

Licensed Practical Nurse

Duties and Responsibilities:

            LPNs work under the control and direction of registered nurses and physicians. They take care of injured, handicapped, and sick patients. They must take temperatures, blood pressures, and pulses. They also assist in giving injections, change dressings, and assist with bathing the patients. They assist with care of almost everyone who cannot do it themselves.

Average Salary: $16,000 - $23,000

Educational Requirements:

            Although a high school diploma or GED certificate is not always required, it is encouraged.  LPNs do not have the extensive professional education that is required for a registered nurse.  State approved training programs are offered by the hospitals, vocational schools, junior colleges and private schools.

I do not wish to be an LPN because I do not believe I would enjoy doing a lot of things for people all the time.

Student Success Statement #35

"Righteous community unity starts with ONE upright soul, whether it is a community of family members, students, neighbors, teammates, or business associates. Unity conquers worthy pursuits more quickly and with less effort than individual effort alone."

- Mr. Haymore

Reflection: When one person begins to do something that positively affects others and himself more than likely others would join. Such as when there is a dance. Many people do not like to be the first ones on the dance floor, but when others go and they see that they are having fun, they would more than likely step on too the dance floor as well to have a little fun. Sometimes if you want a positive change, you might just have to be the person to start the revolution.

Student Success Statement #32

"Your mind is a garden. Your thoughts are the seeds...You can grow flowers. Or you can grow weeds..."

- ANON

Reflection: My mentality has always been based upon success and having the best life I could possibly have on this earth. Many people believe I will succeed because of my optimistic attitude and my way of doing things quickly and efficiently. My world revolves around my success and I will follow through with what my mind tells me is the best anyone can have.

Student Success Statement #28

"Good thoughts bear good fruits. Bad thoughts bear bad fruit"

-  James Allen

Reflection: When he talks about though bearing certain fruits, me means that whatever sort of thought you bear, it would later manifest itself in actions. If you think about doing something bad, then more than likely, you would do something that would negatively impact yourself  or others. But if you think postively then you would more than likely impact the world positively.

Student Success Statement #27

"I wasn't trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what was right."

- Dean Smith

Reflection: He seems like an amazing person. That should be everyone's primary goal in life aside from survival. One should live with the goodness in one's heart by doing what is right rather than for the fame or money. You will eventually get noticed if you do what is right constantly because it's hard to find people who choose to do right all the time. I make the error of doing wrong sometimes but not because I'm a bad person. It's because I'm a human and I'm still learning on how the world revolves.

Student Success Statement #26

"Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all."

- Aristotle

Reflection: If one does no teach the heart then one would never be able to succeed. One needs the heart to give yourself a drive to wake up every morning to know that one will look to succeed in what the heart loves. It'll wake you up to tell you that today may be a big day. It also teaches moral values. Without the knowledge of these values then one would not be able to succeed because one would not be able to create connections and network with people causing life to be nearly impossible.

Student Success Statement #25

"CTR connects you to happiness and success-CTW disconnects."

- Mr. Haymore

Reflection: I believe CTR can connect you to happiness because you will feel morally sane that you asre doing the right thing. But I do not believe it can guarantee my success. The world around me and the one we see in the news and other media outlets shows that some successfull people aren't necessarily living the high way. But they still feel happy because they have what they need to survive in this horrible, corrupt earth.

Student Success Statement #23

"It's better to be alone than to be in bad company"

- ANON

Reflection: One really wants to be a good person because it will bring them happiness. When someone surrounds themselves with bad people they would only strive for one thing which would be to become accepted. It doesn't matter what group it is, you will always want to be accepted. And if you surround yourself with bad people, then one would only learn to do bad things. If a boy is raised by wolves, he would learn to be a wolf.

Student Success Statement #21

"I think it better to do right, even if we suffer in so doing, than to incur the reproach of our consciences."

- Robert E. Lee

Reflection: It is 110% true. We should always to do the correct thing and never even let our minds think of doing anything else. Just as certain staff here at HPIAM does. They always follow the rules set for us and don't think otherwise. It makes us brave people whenever we do what's right because we don't care about what consequences may come from it.

Student Success Statement #20

"Tell me what is right and I will fight for it."

-Woodrow Wilson

Reflection: It is amazing what this man said. It is important to fight for what is right rather than to fight for one's own greed. One example would be how criminals kill people sometimes because they are against them. All the criminals want is the money and status of power. I only wish to do good in the world and cause no harm to anyone. But if I am pursuing something for the greater good and there are obstacles to accomplish that, I would have to fight my way to finish it.

Student Success Statement #19

"The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of moral character."

-Margaret Chase Smith

Reflection: This is entirely true. One who stands up for what is right is the person that shows courage. Courage because not many people would stand up for it because of the fear of being criticized by society. It is an amazing feeling when does because you feel like a noble person doing things right.

Student Success Statement #18

"The reward of a job well done is to have done it"

Reflection: This is the way I feel whenever I do something great. I just feel that once I do something amazing and well done I just feel proud of the fact that I actually did it.

Student Success Statement #15

"Every time I've done something that doesn't feel right, it's ended up not being right."

- Mario Cuomo

Reflection: This happens to me most of the time. In terms of doing something correctly, I sometimes believe I did something right, but then it may end up wrong. But in ethical terms, when I do something right, such as when I went with my friends in the Humanitarians Club to Venice Beach to clean up the beach. We all felt great about ourselves because we felt as if we were being the people we want others to be like who care about the community and the world. Whenever someone does something wrong, you see them pay the consequences such as ending up incarcerated or it could also end up fatal.

Student Success Statement #14

"Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me."

- Carol Burnett

Reflection: She wants to say that she is not influenced by anyone. She does things that way she want s because she has control of her body and her mind. No one can take that away from her. When I do something good, I do it because my mind tells me that I want to do it. No one should ever do something hat they do not want to do just because someone else told them to. If it does it just dhows how weak minded they are and that they shouldn't even have control in the first place.
