“ You will go far with CTR.”
MR. HAYMORE

In life you have to choice of being someone who is going places and achieving their dreams. You could be that someone or be the one that doesn’t do anything to become a better person. Mr. Haymore says that we will go far if we make the commitment to become a CTR person. I honestly believe him when he says this because I am a living example of it. I am a really busy persona and so it is crucial for me to know how to manage my time. I learned to manage my time using my student life planning journal. I would write down everything I needed to get done first and set it as my goal to get it done. Then I would look back at the journal  and see what needs to get done first. I chose the right to use my journal to literally plan my life choices and this led my to have a successful year. I honestly do not regret going home and opening my journal almost everyday and looking to see what needed to get done. I will continue to use journals to guide me through life because kit really did help me this year and  hope that it will to throughout my life. That is just one example of what I needed to do to get by this year and I did it while choosing the right. I agree with Mr. Haymore that I went far choosing the right.

Class Evaluation

Throughout this semester I enjoyed learning more student success statements. I enjoyed this because they gave me a new perspective of what it was like to be a person who always does the right thing. The activity that follows out statements were the videos which I think were second most enjoyable thing in this class. I also enjoyed writing I my student life planning journal. In my journal I would write down my goal for the week and that's how I kept track of my year. I would also draw a lot which allowed the class to be enjoyable. I also liked that I was allowed to talk with my friends and family when we had to walk around and mingle with other students. Lastly, and my all time favorite, would be the end of the block when we were on our way to seventh block. The song is pretty catchy and has a pretty good message.

Although it may seem like this class may seem to be nothing but enjoyable it was not all the time. There were times when get a little bored because we had to create powerpoints for this semester long project and we had too much time to do it. It took too long to get everyone to  present their project. I also didn’t like that we were in the same seats. I would have enjoyed it if we were allowed to sit where we wanted. Another thing that I disliked about this class was the career journals. They were informative but I didn’t like researching and then I needed more time to write a reflection I was proud of. That should pretty much sum up what I didn’t like about this class.

To improve this class I recommend for the students to be able to socialize more. They could do this activity where they pair up with a random person in the class and then they have to write about them. It not only allows them to practice their typing skills but also allows them to get to know more people. Another suggestion would to allow them more freetime. I feel like a lot of the students like computers but for other things than just to type or make a website. You might want to allow them t learn how to photoshop or make a game. Something where we are actually using our knowledge of computers to do something good. Other than that I feel like the lass would be great doing what we are doing.

Like mentioned in the previous paragraph, I really enjoyed the student success  statements. I loved when I would be notified that someone commented on my articles. I also enjoyed being taught a good thing that i can actually use in life. I can actually teach someone these statements to make them a better person. Although I almost never had enough time to do a good job on them I could consider then the highlight of my year. The ones that I liked the most remain in my conscience today. I could not ask for a better task to do in this class as they were not only fun but good for me.

I did do my best in this class. I sometimes forgot my journal so that brought m grade down. The only thing that I never really go the hang of was memorizing the keyboard.Other than that I did try.

I do not read my life planning  journal all the time but I do often. I like writing in my journal though. I also write a lot so I feel like it makes up for when I don’t. When I didn’t do it’s because I’m too busy with other goals I have to complete.     

I have committed myself to chose the right. I have to be honest and say that I don’t always choose the right but I am still getting accustomed to doing things the right way. I made it a habit to be the best person I can be and so far I think that I have done a magnificent job. I plan to continue this all throughout my life.

“THE ULTIMATE CHOICE is to be a CTR Person - to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT 24/7!!!

BY: Mr. Haymore

All thought this year we, my classmates and I, have been told of the benefits of being a CTR person. We have been told that there is greatness if we only make the decision. We have to be able to tell when something is right or not. We have to be able to actually do what is right and keep away front hat that is wrong. It is not the easiest thing to do but there are ways that really help. For example, evaluating your actions at the end of the day, or surrounding yourself with the right people. If at the end of the day you reflect on everything you did wrong throughout your day you will notice that they were not really necessary, so next time you are placed in a similar situation you will react differently and possibly in a better way. The other thing is surrounding yourself with the right people. This is crucial because they will not only influence you but also what you do. If you hang around really disruptive people you yourself will be disruptive. Now, if you hang around people who encourage you to do your homework and study then you will be choosing  the right naturally.  That is why it is so important that you make the choice and become a CTR person.  Personally, I think this will make your life easier because you have less to worry about. A personal example is when I had to turn in a paper for my AP World History class.  I was supposed to be doing a work sheet but instead I choose to play around with my friends. This was me choosing the bad because I almost put aside my priority and that could have dropped my grade. That is why I think that it really does matter if you are a CTR person, If I had fully committed to do what was right I  would have not gone through this. I have now made the commitment because I have seen over the course of this year that it really has affected my life.  I not only plan to use this statement and ideology to thrive in life but in anything I want to do. I will continue to commit to this as I know that it is the best for me.  

Sir Robert Bryson Hall II

Sir Robert Bryson Hall II is a 27 year old rapper from Gaithersburg, Maryland. He was born in January 22nd in the year of 1990. He was born in a hospital in Shady Rockville Maryland at 7:36 in the morning. Today, he is 27 years old and is married to Jessica Andrea, who is also putting out pop music, and had two male dogs. He just put out his fourth album May 5th. This project came in the form of a consecutive concept album. This album takes place in the future not so far. The previous album introduced what could be the end of the human race down in Earth. He was able to capture the solution that we took a fourth to solve this crisis. We all set out into space in a space station called Babble to search for a planet called Paradise. This album was titled The Incredible True Story. The continuation album is titled Everybody. This concept album takes place in Paradise. He goes over the whole controversy of racism. He opens up about how life was for him growing up as a biracial boy surrounded by siblings and neighbors, as well as his parents, who were crack, alcohol and other drugs. He was raced upon section 8 housing and food stamps until he went to live with his friend. He was actually kicked out of high school as an underclassman. One of his first jobs was at a wingstop where be would rap the orders. Not only has he realized that life was rough for him but being that he is in the spotlight now he notices that there are more people out there with lives just as bad as his. That is the reason why he decided to open up about his own life. He aspired to enlighten people and open their eyes to let them know that at they are not alone and that things really do get better as he is a prime example of it.

I chose to write about him for this reason. He is such an inspiration and although I am set off good in life, he has allowed me to put myself in his place and realize that just because I don’t live in such conditions doesn’t mean that they don’t exist. I also love how he has been able to influence the way I interact with people. I have become an open  minded person and feel like I can relate to someone that has lived a life like his. I will continue to look up to him as he has also affected the way I think and analyse art. With that said, I totally recommend him.

Character

If there is beauty in character,

there will be harmony in the home.

If there is harmony in the home,

there will be order in the nation.

If there is order in the nation,

There will be peace in the world.

Conclusion:

If there is beauty in character,

there will be peace in the world.

Chinese proverb

This Chinese proverb is trying to tell us that there will be no peace in the world if there is no peace within the person. A person has to have a good character in order to inspire others to do good as well as feel good. If there is no one to look up to as a character then there will be no reason as to why the whole world should be at peace. We have to compromise but in order to do that we need to be a good person and that is defined through character. An amazing example I could think of would be in a group work. In a group there we are required to work together and in order for us to work together we need to have peace. So that there is peace we need to make sure that we all get along and we have to be at our best behavior. We need to make sure that we are able to lead together and by example of each other. I honestly, really like this statement. It is pretty straight forward and it’s something that I have always thought true.

Yoga Therapist

Duties and Responsibilities: A yoga therapist will work in a studio or in individual sessions. That means that they most resemble a choreographer. They sometimes have to promote their own services or classes. In the case that they have a studio, the advertisement will be done for them. They will instruct the class and teach the participants how to do the yoga and its importance. The yoga therapist will also teach meditation as it assists with the clearing of the mind.

Salary: The salary is averaging at about $17.39 an hour. They make roughly about $40,970 dollars an hour.

Education: There is not much education requires as they must only complete a vocational training or a program on yoga instructing. Some yoga therapist obtain a bachelors in fitness.

Demand for this profession: There is an 8% increase because yoga has become a trend on social media as well as the whole aspect of cleansing the mind.

Reflection: I would not like to be a yoga therapist because I feel like I could do better in life. It is nothing bad but It’s something that I could learn on my own. If i were to become a therapist on any field it would be physical therapist.

“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder.”

By: Thomas Carlyle  

In this statement he compares us to these ships where our goals are what keeps us going. If you think about it for a second you will see that it is true. As a child we had dreams and aspirations in life that motivate us to become whatever we want. I see this statement as much more. I think that he is comparing something so little compared to the size of the ship that almost nobody thinks it is important when wanting to get on a cruise. The same happens when a person is wanting to be successful. We often don’t think that goals are important we look at the bigger picture. The thing is that in order to be successful you need goals just like the ship needs that rudder, It may seem unimportant but It is the only thing that will drive you to where you want to go. That is just my example of why I think our goals and dreams are rudders in the eyes of Thomas C. I plan to continue to keep this statement in mind even though I am not a ship enthusiast.
