                                  Sophomore Year 2017 
          School started at August 15,2017 i wasn't really nervous what teacher i was going to get cause this school is great, i don't have nothing to worry about. When i went to school and got to my first class after academy and i felt something funny and i realized I'm a 10th grader it feels like just yesterday that i was a Freshmen but now I'm not I'm a Sophomore. Till this day i still don't feel like a Sophomore but since i I'm i need to try my best to past all my classes and get good grades i need to change and be better than how i was in Freshmen Year. Hopefully i join Soccer this Year cause i promised that i was going to try to join and see if i get in. And also this year i want to make my parents proud of me on how much i improved. And my classes are not as bad i thought they were going to be they are good and i do like all my classes and hopefully i could pass every single class with a C or better.

9 Ways

                                       9 Ways to be Happy and Make Something of Your Life 

                                                             Gordon B. Hinckley
1. Be Grateful

  Being Grateful is a way to feel or show a acceptation on kindness and thankful to others or others make you feel it. Grateful is one of the ways to be happy and make something of your life and get you to a lot of things to help you out or help someone else out. Some things to be grateful is have a great attitude, always have a positive attitude. You also need to have kindness and are thankful to others or others that make you feel that way, and help you go far and help you achieve your goals,future, and your career.  Being grateful also is to help others and if you do, you will find a deep sense of happiness and how it is the missing ingredient to success which is "Help others". Some ways to be grateful is have a life planning goal journal to have a long-term for being thankful and just practice meditation.
 2.Be Smart

  Being Smart is having or showing a quick -written intelligence. Smart is one of the ways to be happy of your life and successful. Some tips to get smarter is too have some time off online and other social media stuff. If you learn something new write it down to review it, and also make a life planning goals journal, always pick the right friends don't pick friends that push you in to drugs or alcohol., You need to read a lot by that i mean read everyday to get smarter every single day. And finally do something new cause if you do you will learn and that will get you even smarter.
3. Be Involved
 
  Being Involved is to join a club or a sport like participate in activities, and events that is what it means to be Involved. You need to be Involved to show you are not shy and if you do be Involved you will do way better in your presentations if you are shy. Also if you are Involved the college people will look at that and it will look good that you participated and might have a better chance to get accepted. It is so important to be involved because it helps you connect with others, it improves life and strengthens your community or school.
4. Be Clean
            
  Being Clean is like being organized and if you are clean it can help in many ways such as school. A clean person appears diligent, pleasant and inoffensive to others. Cleanliness has come to be associated with godliness, because it suggests health, self-care and respect for others who come into contact with you. Being a clean person can enhance your life and make you somebody in your life. Happiness is being clean cause it helps you.
5. Be True

 Being True is when you are completely honest with what you feel, deeply value, and desire. It also means communicating your feelings wholeheartedly both with yourself and others, allowing your truth to flow through you and into the world. You have to be honest and never lie to no one that was a true person is also if someone tells you a secret and its very embarrassing and doesn't want you to tell anyone you keep that secret and don't tell anyone. Being true can help you get trust from other people and that's good but if you are not being true you will lose trust from other people.
6. Be Positive

 Being positive is when you don't have a negative attitude you have a good,ctr, and helpful attitude. Some ways to always have a positive mind is to have a smile and don't think about the negative things in life think about the positive things in life and you will be a happy person. Also help people out like acts of kindness.
7. Be Humble 
 Being Humble is when you are not thinking of yourself as better than other people. Because no one is perfect not even you, even if you have money and a big house and great family you will have negative things still happened to you so your not perfect but that's okay.  The world is filled with negativity and that's why you need to spread positivity and make the world a better and better place.
|8. Be Still
  Being a Still person means to not make a sound or a move also not being in a rush. When your taking a test you need to be still but you need to make a move not a sound and totally not be on a rush on the test. Also to just clam down and don't take it all in a rush, because if you do you will get things in complete but incorrect this is why you take your time and use it wisely.
9.Be prayerful
                                                                    Final 

  My final thoughts on the nine ways is great i think this nine ways can get you somewhere in life and make you happy. This is like steps of getting your somewhere and the best but the final step of the nine ways "be prayerful" you don't need to follow that step but if you are religions then follow it, i will respect what you believe or what you don't believe. Anyways the other steps follow them for your perfect life can come true. But you need to work hard and earn your perfect life and you don't need to do it all alone have teachers, you parents, and counselors help you too. But you do need to be tough and do somethings on your own. Follow the right path to success!

Summer 2017

             
                                                 Summer 2017
                     My Summer was not that fun, didn't go travel not even a road trip, I was home all Summer and just with my family. I also had to go to Summer School cause i didn't pass my English class so that was not fun at all. I had to wake up early everyday, i thought i was going to have a good relaxing Summer but it was just like going back to school. But when i finished Summer school i had 2 weeks to relaxed so all i did was spent time with my family and sleep. So i didn't really have a fun Summer but i did have plenty of sleep, but at least i get to hang out with my friends in Summer school some of them where there. Also me and my family will make food for all the family including my aunts, uncles and cousins.
