Christmas Break

During the 3 week Christmas break I went to the movies, a party, and read a book. I went to the movies early in the Christmas break and watched Ferdinand. Later on in the break I watched Jumanji. These movies are intended for 2 different audiences. Ferdinand is about a bull that is not the others. He does not want to be a bullfighter like his dad and friends, he just wants to do what humans do on a regular day without being judged. This movie is intended for little kids whereas Jumanji is intended for older kids/ adults. Also, during Christmas break I went to my friends birthday party. It was fun getting to see middle school friends again and talk to them. Lastly, during Christmas break I read a book called the Land of Stories. It was about these two 12 year olds that were taken to another dimension by a book that was given to them. The dimension they were taken to was the fairy tale world and they have to figure out a way to get back home.

Student Success Statement

"Enthusiasm makes the difference"-Dr. Norman Vincent Peale I agree with Dr. Peale because it all depends on how you approach things. When you are excited to try something new you will be glad with the outcome.  When you are sad on trying something new you go with a bad attitude and and don't end up enjoying the experience. I believe this quote is a life lesson. You should always approach things with enthusiasm.

Student Success Statement

 "Kindness  is the essence of greatness."- Joseph B. Wirthlin I believe that Wirthlin's statement is true. When you are kind and caring to an individual you become a great person. One sees you differently when you are kind. They see that you are kind, caring, and respectful person rather than a person that is selfish and only cares about themselves. One example of kindness being an essence of greatness is giving up your seat for someone on the bus. If you see you someone is struggling to carry their items or is having trouble walking or standing you should be kind and offer them your seat. Another example of showing kindness is helping out the less fortunate. If you can afford something they can't like food or clothes be kind and give them some. It doesn't have to be new clothes or bought food it could be used clothes that is in good condition and a home made meal.

Disasters

The event I choose to talk about is the California mudslides.  In January, a massive mudslide occurred killing over 21 people. This all started when the states largest fire occurred, the Thomas fire. The people that lived in the community of Montecito and Santa Barbra were effected by the mudslides. Some lost there home The U.S. forest fire is helping to clean up the mess and possibly get people back to their home The mudslides relate to me and others because some people might know someone or are related to someone that was in the mudslide.
