Failure is a good thing

a. Write down a quote that you agree with or disagree with, and explain why you agree or disagree.
"I probably wont tell her that failure is a good thing......I hope I can tell her, though, that it's not the end of the world. Indeed, with luck, it is the beginning." I agree with this quote because it's true, you learn more from your failures or mistakes rather than what you are being taught.

b. Describe one of the biggest failures you’ve made in your life. How did the failure affect you? What did you learn from the failure?
I think that my biggest failure was not studying for an important Spelling Bee Contest. In the year of 2000 I had won a Spelling Bee Contest not once but three times in a row. So I had won 2000, 2001, and 2002. In the year of 2003 I felt that i had changed and i was older and that i didnt need to study for it that i knew everything. Well i learned that no matter what i have to study in order to win. Because sadly that year i didnt win.
c. Why do you think I’m having you listen to this story?
I think that you are having us listen to this story because many teens make mistakes and when they do they dont bother fixing it or learning from it. They just give up and think that there is no more hope.

What i did to my secret person was buy/give her 50 when she was in need. She said she was really hungry but all she had was 25 cents so then i gave her 50 cents so that she could get some hot cheetos. I think wat i did was very nice because she was really hungry.

I think that my angel is Sam Cesan because she emailed me saying hi and then she helped me with my commercial and we talked outside of class.....

My First Quarter for the 9th Grade

well it hasnt been bad. i actually like my classes. I enjoy being in my ethnic classes because i have learned so much and i love that we actually do things in that class and take notes. I also like my Science class because she has us all organized and we take a lot of notes. I had a 4.0 and it was good until Mr. Hsu gave me a B but i am going to raise it up today by redoing the things that he erased for me.
