Aging

Aging

There are many ways people can age a lot faster. People may not know this, but aging doesn’t just come with you getting older but with what you put and or do with your body. Smoking is bad for your health and can cause you to age quicker. Smoking can activate enzymes that break down the elasticity of your skin. Crash dieting can be a long-term threat. It can make you feel older my reducing your energy level. Not getting enough sleep is another big problem. It can keep you from functioning well during the day. It can also lead to wait gain. When skipping your fruits and veggies you do not get the nutrients you need for your skin and face. Holding grudges can cause you to get wrinkles and lead to bad health problems. Letting go of stress can help you avoid cognitive impairment and keep your mind young. Drinking alcohol is not good when you get older because it doubles up and you begin to age a lot quicker.

“True

Independence and

 freedom can only

exist in doing

what’s right.”

Brigham Young

 Reflection: What I think he means by this is that if you want freedom and independence in life, you have to be willing to do what is right. Doing what is right can get you a lot more things than you thought possible. No one will want to remember you as the person who did wrong all their life. They’ll want to be able to say that you were the one that always did the right thing no matter what other people thought and said about it.

An example of doing something wrong and losing your freedom is when you steal something or use drugs and get put into prison. Getting put into prison is losing your freedom because you are now locked up forever.

An example of doing something right and gaining your freedom and independence is studying hard in school and getting into a great university. That is doing what is right and being independent because you are now on your own making your own money and doing your own things.

My Opinon

My Opinion

No one ever really asks me for my opinion on anything, but I do have one. When I hear people talking about religion and stuff, I kind of feel confused because I hear so many different theories that I don’t know what to believe. When I am home with all my family and cousins we usually get into big arguments about the way one acts or how the other has attitude and personally I believe that we are or I am the way I am because of how they treat me or because I know how they’ll respond to it. There is never a way out of anything with my family, they are mostly just so close minded and don’t like to try new ideas or new options. They think since I am only 17 I don’t know as much as they do, but in reality I know a lot more. My dad is the one person I go to for everything. I go to my dad because he understands and doesn't judge me. If I have a crazy idea he’ll listen to it and then tell me what I should do. My dad tries his best to keep up with me and I know it’s sometimes hard for him so I try to make it easier for him. I think it is easier to talk to my dad about anything because he is not like the rest of my uncles, aunts, and cousins, he is very open minded and likes to try new things. Me and my mom are more like sisters. I can tell her some things but I know she wont agree. Me and my mom always fight but we always apologize after. I do love my family very much, but I personally think that too much family isn't so good. We all get tired of having to deal with one another once in a while that we end fighting and sometimes after those fights nothing is the same. I like the fact that you let us write about anything right now, because I really do have a lot that I have to say but no one really listens, so thank you. 

St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick’s Day

1. He is the patron saint of Ireland, is one of Christianity’s most widely known figures. But for all his celebrity, his life remains somewhat of a mystery. Many of the stories traditionally associated with St. Patrick, including the famous account of his banishing all the snakes from Ireland, are false, the products of hundreds of years exaggerated storytelling.

2. To celebrate the Roman Catholic feast day of the patron saint of Ireland. He died on March 17, 461.

3. St. Patrick’s Day is designated when it is, because that was the day that St, Patrick died.

4. We wear green on St. Patrick’s Day because it was worn for good luck. The friendly brothers of St. Patrick, an Irish fraternity founded in about 1750, adopted green as its color.

5. I find it interesting how much there really is to learn about this day. I never really understood the meaning of St. Patrick’s Day, but now I do. I would love to participate on this day. St. Patrick was actually a saint that I never knew about.

Olivet Middle School

Olivet Middle School

In Olivet middle school the football team decided to do something not many most people would think of doing. They one day decide to get as close to the touch down as possible, but not make a touchdown. They had a team member who had a mental problem and reacted a little younger for his age. The football team adored him, so they wanted to do something meaningful for him. When one of the players got as close to the touch down as possible, he kneeled down. Then they brought in the boy and when the whistle blew they covered him so no one would touch him, and made the touch down. They let him make the touchdown. Not many people would think of doing this, but these team members wanted to make someone’s week, month, day happy. This was a very nice thing to do because they made that little boy so happy, even if it was just for a couple of minutes. That meant more than you could think of to that boy.

“They’re only

truly great

who are truly

 good.”

George Chapman

 

Reflection: I think he means that if you're truly good then you are truly great. If you are bad or hang out with the wrong people and do drugs, then you are not truly great. If you are a good student and work hard and hang out with the right crowd, then you are truly great. Those who do good, are good.

Cheating: Is the short term gain worth the long term pain?

“Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn’t. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don’t do it.”

GEORGE MITCHELL, Senate Majority Leader, Presidential Medal of Freedom, Disney Chairman of the Board. 

Reflection: What i think he is trying to say is that it is not worth to cheat if you're only going to be happy for a little while. why cheat and then be sad forever knowing that you did something bad. It is best to do what is right and have a long term happy feeling.

Mitch McKee

Mitch McKee

Mitch McKee wanted to make his father and family forget about the cancer his father had for at least just a brief moment. He did this by trying to win a wrestling match. He trained every day and practiced even when there was no practice, and sure enough that year he won almost every match and made it to the finals. He was a freshman in the wrestling finals with his dad sitting on the bleachers cheering him on. Mitch won that day and he won fit for his dad. He had no words but just hugged his dad and cried. This here is something you can’t get with money. This is what a right heart does.

“Great beauty,

great strength, and

great riches are

 really and truly of

no great use; a right

heart exceed all.”

Benjamin Franklin

 Reflection:  What I think this means is that it does not matter if you have got the best beauty, riches and strength in the world, but if you have a great heart, then you exceed all. A great heart is much more important than having a lot of money, or being really strong, or being the prettiest.
