part 03: quote & reflection


"obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy."
-david a. bednar
this quote explain that as long as you are obedience you will always be happy. for example you will feel good with yourself. if you are obedient you will have many opportunities in life. i think you should always choose the right (obedient) because that way you will become into  a great person and make yourself proud and the people around you.

part 02: life planning progress

well with my life planning i have a little of progress because i don't have a notebook  with the 100 goals. something i have to do is get my 100 goals and try my best to complete them. also i have to be responsible enough to read my goals daily throughout my lifetime.

part 01: class reflection

something i liked the best about this class was the new things we learned. something i really dislike about this class was that we couldn't use the computers for fun stuff and the class periods were too long. to improve this class i recommend that teachers should give the students more freedom with the computers.something i will always remember about this class is the people because they were always so nice&funny, also because they alway helped me when i needed help.

then you tell five lies so folks, won't suspect you '
then you tell six lies and you'll collect 
a life filled with worries and fears

and half the things you say aren't true 
and sometimes you'll slip up you'll trip up and then 
whatever will become of you?
