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.

APB Reloaded

I have recently been more active in one of my favorite games called APB Reloaded. It is a game about cops and robbers fighting in the public streets because criminals have been terrorizing the streets for too long and it is up to the vigilantes named The Enforcers to fight these criminals and serve justice onto the streets. It is a very fun game especially when you play with friends. I constantly call my cousin to tell him to play online so we can level up everything so we can be equal with every weapon and car we want.
