Memorial Day Weekend

Over the weekend we had a BBQ. Over the weekend we went to visit Disneyland. We met some of our old neighbors. I watched the amazing spider man 2.  I saw a basketball game my brother played. When my parents were away for couple of days, I had to clean up the entire house by myself. I made my mom breakfast.  I did my english and math homework over the weekend. I also decided I need to clean up some stuff in my binders.

Memorial Day

                              Memorial day is a day to honor all those who died in active military service. Memorial day is on May 30. To show respect, towns and cities can throw parades and people can go to the cemetery and decorate the graves of the fallen with flowers and flags. It is a shame because a lot of towns and cities haven’t done a parade in a long time and most people just see it as a day to go to parties, visit friends, or a long weekend to do some other things. A few things I can is visit a memorial day parade and pay respect to their graves.

"If I've got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I'm going to succeed."- Dan Dierdorf


                     What he means is that if you have good goals and if you pursue them in a good way, then everything else will fall into line. So what you need to do is make a goal that is something good ,not bad. An example of this type of goal is you wanting to pass high school. Then what you need to do is achieve that goal the right way. What he means is that you need to do what you're suppose to do. Don't do something that can mess up your chance of completing that goal

"The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: self-respect, dignity, integrity, and self-esteem."- Dr. Laura Schlessinger

             This quote is saying sometimes when you do what's right, no one gives you a reward expect yourself. Doing right things can make you feel right. You can gain self-respect and dignity. Doing what is right can make you feel clean and a bit happy. Doing something wrong though can have some serious consequences. There are might not be any rewards for doing something wrong.

- Phillip Riggs

         These are the 4 success tips Riggs has given us. Number one is plain and simple rule. All you need to do is work hard to get what you want. Number 2 is something you have to figure out on your own. You need to follow your life goals, do things that you are interested in. Rule number 3 is saying not everything is about money. I think this rule is talking about a job that pays extremely well but sometimes it is not worth it. An example is a job you don't like doing or something that goes against everything you wanted and the only reason you're doing it is because it pays well. Number 4 says if you do good for others, sometimes good things will come to you.
