Determining Success

"If one asks for success and prepares for failure, he will get the situation he has prepared for"

-Florence S. Shinn

Its stating that you get what you prepare for. If you prepare for success, and work hard for it, in the end you'll probably get success. If you don't do anything and don't work towards a certain goal, then you are preparing for failure. 

What are you preparing you for your future?

Trayvon Martin Response

To the State of Florida,

My comments and/or feelings toward, the slaying of the 17-year-old high school student, Trayvon Martin, go without no remorse toward George Zimmerman. I feel that the delayed conviction of George Zimmerman, is long overdue. In the multiple conversations and debates that I have had with numerous people, we’ve concluded that there is more than enough evidence and clues for George Zimmerman to be arrested and convicted of the slaying of Trayvon Martin. 

Tigerette Tryout Today!!!!!

I'm going to miss tigerette tryouts today, but I to all the girls I got to give all respect to you guys! You guys are all ready winners for trying out in an open tryout. Just give your best and kill. Wise words from the dance community outside of school "Buck it like you own".  Don't let your fear overcome you, you've made through learning the dance and all you got to do now is prove to the judges and no one else that you are tigerette material!

Worry

"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength"

-unknown

To me this quote is is saying that if you leave the trouble of yesterday in the past you won't have any sorrows. It will bring a brighter to the next day. Worrying about yesterday keeps you from recieving the new blessing of today. 

Why have the worries of yesterday on your mind, when you can start a whole new day?

Success

What is your definition of success?

Success in my words, for my life would be graduating from high school. Success for me would be pursing a degree in Criminology or Audio Production. Also, gaining the rank of 2nd LT in the U.S. Army after 4 years of college. 

What are your long term goal of your life?

My Valentine Overlook

Valentine's Day

A day that's full of gifts, romance, and love. The Day were you show the people how much you love them and more. Where even if you're in a relationship, you show your significant other more affection and love. The way I look at Valentine's day is that you're not supposed to just look for someone to love for just that day. You're supposed to show love every other day, but that specific day is to show that one person or others that you really appreciate them in your life. Not only that if a person does not have a significant other its a day where they can open up to find love. Spend the day with family and do something for themselves. I also see people complain about how that don't have people to share it with, and they aren't getting gifts. So what if no one can see you before Valentine's Day that not you fault. God is saving that one special person for you and its Not Valentine's Day.

Poor and Broke

"I've never been been poor, only broke. Being poor is a frame of mind. Being broke is a temporary situation. "

- Mike Todd

This is saying when you think something negative it is a poor frame of mind. But when you go towards the prize then that is the thing that works.

What do you consider poor and broke?

Social Media

"Does facebook or any other social media threaten your privacy? Why or why not?

In a way, social media does threaten my privacy as in my future because is some stuff on my page that could probable come back and bite me in the butt. Also, not really because I really don't put my life on/in social media because it is not everyones business?

Do you tell you life story on any of the social networking sites?

Former Governor's pardons

If i where a victum of the Governor's pardons I'd be upset and have to question his judgement on making that call. I mean he let out murder's and other such criminal who could either be out to start a new or out seeking revenge. I really don't think he consider the families and individuals who could get harmed by this call or just releasing those individuals because he could at the time. 

What do think about his decision? Are you for or against his pardons?

Self Opinions

"Nobody holds a good opinion of a man who has a low opinion of himself"

-Anthony Trollopoe

I think that you can not really talk bad about someone else if you don't feel the same way about yourself.  Basically stating that if you have low self esteem about someone else you probably feel the same about yourself.  How do you feel about yourself. Low self esteem or High self esteem?

Thoughts

Best Friends v. Worst Enemies

" Our best friends and our worst enemies are our thoughts. A thought can do us more good than a doctor or a banker or a faithful friend. It can do us more harm than a brick." 

- Dr. Frank Crane

While in high school you may come across your best friends and your worst enemies.  And through your years they some how become your thoughts and what you think about everyday. Rather positive or negative you make those people your priority. 

Do you let your Friends or Enemies control you lifestyle?

 "What are your goals for 2012"

One of my goals for 2012 is to stay true to myself and not let the judgement of others bother me at times. Another goal for this year are to graduate from high school (class of 2012). Also to not let the things of 2011 make my 2012. To me achieving my goals are important because they determine the outlook of my future. 

What things in 2012 will you do differently than you did in 2011 to determine your future?
