Free Post

     This weekend I saw the marathon of The Walking Dead. It led up to the new episode. It is a show because of the zombies, it is very nerve wrecking. I was also writing an essay for my English class, which was very troublesome. It was a relaxing weekend and fun.

Student Success Statement

" Goal setting is goal getting. Set and get."- Mark Victor Hansen

This quote is saying that when you set your mind to a goal then that is a goal you will achieve. You have to set it so then you can be determined to get it. For example, when Kobe decided to one of the best he practiced nonstop and now he is the star of the Lakers. When you set a goal, you get it.                                                                                      

Progress Report

After reading my 100 goals I realized that I have achieved one other goal which is to save an animal. I realized that its owner did not know it was left out in the street so i told them and the dog was safe in his home. It felt really nice because I love animals. I have also advanced my knowledge on marine biology which is very interesting.
