Limerick Poem

                                                     My mother was very very sad, 

Because she thought she did something bad. 

Emotions all over, 

She wasn’t sober.

But then she was a tad bit mad. 

Goal Setting

What Makes a Good Friend

Good friends are those who meet the standards of others, but what are the main reasons / qualities you want to look for in a “good friend”. There are many to look into but only a few will be spoken about. 

Honesty is number one on the list. Honesty..what is it? and why would anyone look for that in a friend?. Well honesty is what holds part of the bond in a friendship, it’s a way of being positive and straightforward to someone who asks for the truth. Honesty excludes lying, cheating,theft so on and so forth. Honesty also includes fairness and reliability, honesty is definitely something to look for in ones you are friends with. 

Trustworthiness, do you look for such a thing in a friendship?.... well you should..like right now!!. Trust is another thing you should look for because people can easily look past others' lies. Trustworthy people will use the same behavior and language in a conversation no matter the situation. They have self-control and maintain character and follow through on what they say. Trustworthy people won’t wear different masks just to impress those who attract bad vibes. 

Sense of humor should be somewhere in the top five of the list you have somewhere buried inside that pocket of yours. Now this is one that should definitely be included because who doesn't like a good laugh. Sense of humor is where a group of people or two are blurting out funny jokes or scenes that provokes laughter and amusement to the conversation. If you had to ask me I think adding on top of the jokes and throwing something even funnier in makes it one-thousand times better. 

Caring is the last stop for this explanation so buckle in, because I saved the best for last. Anybody else thinks that there  aren’t that many of those who actually care now-a-days….because same, caring definitely needs to be on the list of those who desire it. Caring is where the other person who is in friendship with you stays back to pick you back up off of the ground and carry you into a level where you will be able to stand by yourself. The group of friends you have should be like soldiers, those who fall should have help from those who can bring them back from drawing. If you don't have a group sculpted that way you're taking the wrong path. 

Good friends should have these qualities, if they don't you need to pack your stuff and leave because the path you are taking shouldn’t be a path where you are pressured into doing things, left behind or stir into trouble. Make the right choice and right decision with who you trust, because make the wrong choice and that will make doing everything in the right way be surprising to others. 

You've Disappeared...but Somewhat Still here

Roses are red violets are blue there aren’t any days that go by without me thinking about you

I wish you could see how well i’ve been doing over the past year but you aren’t here 

Tears rolled down my face from all of the stress and pressure I've built on top of what happened to you

The day I found you the way I did broke my heart into one million pieces 

I hate how you are no longer here with me but that’s reality...I’m just hoping I can fight till I find the light 

Veggie/Meat Pizza

Today was an exciting day seeing as it was the last week of term two. As every student entered we were all curious as to what we were making. The lesson proceeds and we finally receive information on what us students were making….veggie/meat pizza’s.

Time skip, we put the pizza into the oven at two-hundred degrees: bake and patiently wait for ten minutes. The class then starts to clean the stations they were using. The pizza’s were done so, they took the trays out and waited for them to cool down. 

Skip to six minutes later, all you see is people finishing the dishes wiping down the benches and sweeping the floor. Then one person from each station takes the pizza’s puts it in tin foil or containers while the other wipes down the tray. 

Another time skip to finishing the class. Students patiently waited as the teacher walked around to see if the benches and oven were clean/wiped down. The feedback from the teachers was fornomanal I can’t wait till next term. 

______________________________

REVEIW - 

Today was a good day but I would definitely say that people still don’t know how to listen and that’s a big no no. Some people in the class were also late when it came to putting the pizzas into the oven or some ovens were not working so basically it was working overtime in a way. Other than that I would say today’s meal was a nice way too finish.

Mean,Mode,Median and Range

This is the imformation I've gathered this past week about mean,mode,median and range -

Mean -

You have to add all of the numbers together and then divide it by how many numbers are there. 

Median - 

Rearrange  the numbers from smallest to biggest then you see if both sides are even. If there are two numbers in the middle, I have to add them and then divide them by two. 

Mode - 

You look at the most repeated number 

Range- 

You takeaway the smallest number from the biggest number

How I want to be Remembered at Glen Innes School

 Existence is a crazy thing, especially when it comes to wanting to be remembered, When it comes to being remembered everybody has different desires.Personally, I do want to be remembered but not for the reasons some people already have. 

I want to be remembered for being sporty. When I think back to my best memories, it leads me back to sport. But, not all of them are involved with matches we’ve won. I will not be remembered for how many points I've made for my team but there is definitely one reason why. Teamwork. I would say I can work rather well with anybody on the team we play. This means we can all unite when coming up against multiple teams with a variety of different skills. 

Also, teamwork gives me an opportunity to explain/provide strategies. Teamwork as I said, is something I’m quite good at but, there is more that I could learn. For instance, allowing others to give ideas, set different goals, communicate and build trust with each other.

Having a sense of humour is essential in life so this is one footprint I'd like to leave behind. I’d like to say that I'm so funny I’d be a comedian, but I haven't quite reached that level as others say. Meaning that I should build on top of what I already have to make it to the ultimate level. 

Comparing height to someone who is close to 5’9 there would be no way for anyone who has the height of 5’2 or 5’6. I earned the name of being tall and I want to keep it that way. I earned this title for obviously being tall. I'm around the height of 5’9 or 5’10 making me have an advantage against others but there is someone I compete against and as said I’ll do anything to keep my title. 

Honesty is the key to trustworthiness in any relationship or friendship. When it comes to being honest, I’m definitely above that category and have always been, I don't want to stay there. I want to rise to the top. There will be times where it’ll be hard to tell the truth but, in order to rise to the top I'd have to tell the truth no matter the situation. I want to rise to the top by telling the truth, thinking before I speak, saying what I mean and mean what I have said and telling it like it is rather than sugar coating it. 

Reliable people are the best for difficult situations. I fit this category one-hundred percent!!. Everybody comes to me because they know I'm reliable, but I'm not at an expert level. Even though I'm not at that level, I’ll try to get there by being truthful, proactively learning to  communicate , respect mine and other people's time and manage commitments. 

These are my reasons and people didn’t know what they were until now, These qualities will be the reason I’ll be remembered at Glen Innes School.
