"Only those live who do good"- Count Leo Tolstoy

Image
 This statement by Leo states pure facts because whoever leaves their family for something else is not a good idea and good thing to do at all, you will live a miserable life. Don't choose something that would hurt you rather than someone or something that could've stayed with you. He states that you live if you do good. You might be alive but you might be feeling pain or miserable about decisions made. You live if you do good choices and think before you do or say.

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right."- Albert Einstein

Image
  This statement I agree with means that it's not right to feel or be popular, and being popular isn't right. In addition, doing something the popular way would make you a (choosing the wrong) person and you want to make sure you do things the right way. For example, someone who would do haircuts and trim for someone in need like the homeless would not be not only a good person but is also doing what's right and not by being popular. And someone who does something trying to be popular would be doing what's wrong.

Basketball

Image
 Basketball is a limited contact sport played on a rectangular court with two hoops to score. While most often played as a team with players. The goal in basketball is to shoot the basketball in the hoop. A team scores free throws that are worth one point because the other team has been called out for a foul. Playing basketball sure has its own techniques, for example, handling the ball, shooting, passing, dribbling, dunking, shot blocking, and rebounding. In addition, basketball teams have player positions.Basketball is one of the world's most popular and widely viewed sports. I wrote about basketball because it was the first sport besides softball.          

A Choice:Poverty or Prosperity

Image
"I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and i decided that I would change it."-Dr Ben Carson This statement that Ben stated was about when he lived his childhood. He states this because he hated what he lived through. Since poverty is more of a choice he has the opportunity to change and live his life the best way he can. He said it all depends on how hard you want to work and so he decided to change the way of living for the better. He is now a doctor  (an American neurosurgeon), author, and politician who is the 17th and current United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, under the Trump Administration

"Even if everyone is doing it, WRONG IS NEVER RIGHT."-Russell M. Nelson

Image
I think this follows for the people who cheat or see other people cheating, never plan or think to cheat because it will not only affect you in your future but it also affects the teacher and how they teach. As well as thinking of stealing something just because you see someone else to do or hear they did doesn't put you to do the same. In addition, never cheat making the teacher think you got a good score and make them feel like they are doing there part, no you are supposed to ask the teacher for help or any questions about any doubts on assignments. That's why they are here to help us students on whatever it is.

NEVER " You can't be right by doing wrong;you can't be wrong by doing right." -Thomas S. Monson

Image
This statement in other words means that you can't be right by cheating and you can't do wrong by being honest. In addition, don't do right by doing wrong and can't be wrong by doing right. Its not wrong being honest and its best for someone to do right than doing wrong and hurting them the wrong way. You can't be right by cheating its not good and it can affect you the wrong way if you'd get caught. You do what is right by doing the right meaning being positive, honest and kind with others. Don't judge other people for what they are, if they wanna live that way, it is on them. 

The Harmful Effects of Marijuana

Image
Marijuana's negative effects on attention, memory, and learning can last for days or weeks after the acute effects of the drug wear off, depending on the person's history with the drug. S omeone who smokes marijuana daily may be functioning at a reduced intellectual level most or all of the time. Evidence suggests that students who smoke marijuana have poor educational outcomes than their nonsmoking peers. For example, a review of 48 relevant studies found marijuana use to be associated with reduced educational attainment. Consuming marijuana can lead you to feeling tired.

"I wasn't trying to leave legacy. I was trying to do what was right" -Dean Smith

Image
I believe Dean Smith is trying to say is that he was doing the right thing to be a good person. He believed more in his players than himself and as well as winning. I think he just wanted the best for his players.

Christmas Winter Break

 This winter break I slept over at my cousins house for the first week. We went out to have breakfast and went mall shopping which was really fun. Also,one of my bestest friends celebrated her 15th birthday and I decided to help on decorations so i had gotten early to her house. She looked so amazing and that night was as special as she is to me. In addition, on Christmas Eve my mom had planned to make tamales and pozole and decided to invite my aunts and my godmother. That night we ate, watched movies on Netflix and played games. Most of my cousins were tired that they knocked out early so we had cleaned up early and gone to sleep. The next day on Christmas day we had all planned to go to my oldest aunt's house to open presents.   Since one of my oldest cousins had gone to mexico for a week, she brought me some earings and candy that my aunt from mexico had sent to me. My family and I spent New Years Eve at my aunts house, we ate and watched some movies like Nacho Libre. My aun
