Connections

In my English 42/43 class we learn about all different types of exciting topics. i really like when we talk about connections. making a connection to something else helps us better understand a topic more precise.

Self-Respect

The on course book is a great learning tool that can help enhance or learn basic strategies that many can learn from. i read this book in my Personal Growth class Ms Margie, is an excellent professor. I like her class by the way. I not only read the book because its assigned for her students, but because I want to become cautiously  aware of these helpful tools one lesson that i really liked was Developing self-respect. I think that one is a biggie. self-respect plays a big role on ones self weather they value their self or not.

Cliffhangers

 I recently, in class learned about Cliffhanger. A cliffhanger is a suspenseful situation occurring at the end of a chapter, scene, or episode. This usually leave the reader, or audience guessing as to what happens next. I find cliffhangers enjoyable, because as I watch a movie, I watch the previous first, to determine if the movie is actually  worth paying for. If the movie is worth my spendings, then obviously the cliffhanger grabs my attention as to what else is going to take place next in the movie.

My Strengths

Taking the strength finders test was beneficial to me, especially because I found out some of my strengths that I wasn't even aware of. MY strengths include; Adaptability, consistency, Relator, command, and deliberative. These traits represents me. I recommend taking the Strengths finder test to gain insight on your areas of strengths.

My inspiration.



lady gaga compared to India Arie

Music has a tremendous impact in the world today. The most populated is the music that doesn't necessarily have any meaning. for example artist such as  lady gaga, Drake,Lil Wayne,Tyga Beyonce, Rhianna. To me music isn't music unless it has meaning.




India Arie, is a young black artist. who's music impact peoples lives. she makes songs, that actually help women overcome their obstacles. Her music is just so powerful. my favorite song by her I would say is Because I am a Queen  In this song she express her self thoroughly, she speaks that she is her own person, and doesn't care what people think. she is Free to do what ever.


one line the stood out to me was
" I'm not the average girl from your video
My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes
no matter what I'm wearing i will always be thee India Arie"

Lesson worth knowing



If i could choose a lesson worth knowing I would say, learning/relearning the parts of speeches. I think over the years I forgot some parts of speech, but not completly. Relearning the material was great, somethings I didnt know and others I remembered like, different types of verbs linking,helping,compound, and action. I never really understood the differences between each. But now i know them prefectly.

It is amazing to experience the (SRP) Summer Readiness Program. I find myself on track, as to what my future holds. The program has so much to offer as far as, being able to be one step ahead of everyone else. In addition to being prepared to develop such skills, that are going to help me in  the long run.If i weren't involved in the SRP i would have possibly been wasting my summer by going  out with friends, sleeping my life away etc. It is obvious that I want to better myself,I Find myself on the right path.
