LIFES LIKE A FOOTBALL GAME

Life is like a football game, it has four quarters, when your a kid, when your a teen , when your an adult and when your a senior. In the first quarter you may fumble or intercept the ball a lot. But its fine its just the first quarter. The second quarter you may get tackled and get thrown on the floor but soon your team mates will come and pick u right back up. Just like in life we are meant to make mistakes were not perfect all you have to do is get back on your feet. The second quarter is the most important part of the game as it is in your life, its close to halftime and close to when you decide what you’ll be in life its what determines the rest of the game and what will determine how you'll live. The third quarter is when it starts to get harder like in life too you'll have to make hard decisions and think on your feet. third quarter still brings pressure you know the game will be over soon so you'll know you have to work harder. In the game the third quarter is when u start to look at the score and at the game clock, and in life its the time when you start to look at your goals and the time you have to accomplish them. Fourth quarter has finally arrived after all your hard work you know you’ve accomplishes a lot. If your winning or losing that wont matter a lot you know you’ve tried hard you fell and got back up. your teammates are tired and so are you it has been a great game no matter the obstacles that you came upon like in the game as in life you’ve work hard in each quarter you start easy and it gets harder you fall down and get back up go back in your huddle call the next play and try again .like in a foot ball game some times you lose some times you win but if you try your hardest in practice like in life, if you try your hardest and study read one hours a day choose the right and apply all the signs you’ll make it to play offs and in life be vary successful you’ll win the super bowl.

Our Life--Our Thoughts

"Our life is what our thoughts make it."

Marcus Aurelius

Money=Happiness?

People who say money doesn't bring you happiness are foolish..of course it does.
But for how long? How long will it take you to realize that what you really want and desire is more than money could ever buy? Just remember that you can't put a price on everything.. somethings are priceless.

New Football Stadium

As many of you know, our governor of california. Has decided to make a brand new football stadium. How is that? I thought that the state has no money to pay teachers. His solution was letting go of many teachers from many schools including ours. Many teachers have no jobs now and you are telling me that this was done to build a new football stadium. I understand that by building this stadium in the city of Industry, that will create new jobs. My question is at what cost? I believe that by cutting money from schools is not right. Our parents pay taxes for us to go to school andnow his solutions are affecting our learning. What do you guys think.
