Student Events

I went to a football game and to an athletic award ceremony. I belive that i am the luck for our football team becasue every game that i have gone to we have won (against cal poly). The football game was fun i saw some old friends and had a good time. The athletic award ceremony was not such a good experience. I had to get up early for a free breakfast which was muffins and watered down orange juice. The ceremnoy itself was long and dragged out and it almost made me miss a class. I wasnt a good time.

how i plan on becoming internet famous

for starters i am going to create my own kickass website that is going to sell a product that will be the the best thing since sliced bread. I am still waiting for this ingenious idea to reveal itself to me but in due time it will come. so keep an eye and ear open because soon i will be the household name for the porduct that i will be distributing over the internet.

5 year plan

today in class we worked on our five year plan. It was very interesting to see what i have to do to get out of this school and it seems that i have my work cut out for me. time to put my nose to the grind stone and get some work done.

Resources

Use your resources wisely. if you have them use them dont let things that will make your life easier slip away. if you have the option for free tutoring take it. if you areasked to join a study group do it. now is the time to get things done so that you dont fail all of your finals

back to school

well thanksgiving break is over and its time to crank out the next two weeks of school. its almost over i can now see the light at the end of the tunnel and the taste of freedom is starting to be aquired in my mouth. All that i need to do is just get it done and not slack off before finals.

Senior interview

Well the interview was pretty fun. I was given the honor and the privilege to ask the senior questions. At first i thought it was kinda corny and strange but as the event progressed on i realized that it was a pretty cool thing to do. Some of the questions that were asked really help a lot of people who were having trouble with planning for next semester and i am glad to be a part of that. I think the best part was wen i submitted a couple of questions that were impossible to answer. everyone got a big laugh out of them and i am glad to have brought joy to the faces of others. all in all it was a solid day of class and i cant wait for the next big thing to do.

work

work sucks, so make it get on its knees and have some fun with it

misspelling

i know that alot of poeple get angry wen others mispell words. but they need to get over it becasue as long as the message gets across there is nothin to worry bout. So take a chill pill and relax grammer freaks

STD

And no i didnt just misspell the word "stud" im talking bout sexually transmitted diseases. Do u really want one? i know that i dont so dont be a fool and wrap your tool

Smoking

Ok who are you trying to kid? you are not any cooler now that you have started smoking. In fact you just got less cool and more likely to die of cancer. If you can live with that go ahead but please dont smoke around me because i value my life and rather not cut it short.

Get in the Game

As they say in highschool musical, Get your head in the game. Stop worrying about everything that happened yesterday and focus on the task at hand. No more excuses just finish what needs to be done and then move on. You can do it have faith in yourself.

Take charge of your health

get in shape. stop sitting around and making excuses, its just unexceptable, go out running or hit the gym it doesnt matter what you do as long as you do something!

Stress!

Just dont worry about it! There is so much going on in your life and i know that it can be very stressful but theres a time when you just need to let it go. in the end everything will come out ok. if its not ok then its not the end.

Money Management

Money talks and it usually tells me goodbye lol but there are ways to stop that. first of all only sppend when you absolutly need to. dont be an impulsive buyer and just pruchase an item becasue its shiney! Think it through meet!

Test Anxiety

Nobody like taking test, and if you do well then i think there is something wrong with you. But when it comes down to it there are some easy things to do to stop the test anxiety. First get a good night of sleep before your test date, aka no partying. second make sure you have prepared yourself prior to five minutes before the exam, aka dont rely on cramming. and thirdly make sure you bring all the needed materials to the class aka if you need a calculator bring one etc. Do these things and you should be fine.

Suicide

Its just not ok. THere is always something worth living for. If you feel that there is not i challenge u to come talk to me and i will prove you wrong. Somebody out there cares and everyone goes through hard times so suicide is never an answer. If you need help, there are people for that.

Stress

Stress affects us all. nobody is exempt from its torture. I think the best thing to do to cope with it is just take a couple of deep breathes and remember that in the end everything will be ok. A great way to help get rid of stress is to run. So get out there and run people it will also get the 66% of overwieght americans in better shape.

Video Project update

well the procject is going smoothly. I still have have no clue when i am personally going to find time to film the thing but im sure ill figure it out eventually. The good thing is we found a solid plot and id love to tell you about it but im afraid i wont do it justice so your just going to have to wait for it to be published and check it out on youtube then, but trust me its going to be AWESOME!!!!!!!! Ill give you a small hint that i has something to do with sports but i cant really tell you anything else. But we learned how to use imovie in class the other day so its gonig to be absolutelty sweet! Im pumped for it.

Study time

So where is the best place to study. Well it varies from person to person, i personally enjoy a place where its nice and quite somewhere hopefully outdoors and hopefully a place where the internet works and doesnt cut out on you everytime you refresh the page. but ya if you get those things your good to go.

Day Dreaming

We all know that it can be fun but thats beyond the point. Day dreaming is a bad thing becasue it takes you out of the current moment and you dont soak in any of the information that you is beign said while your off in lala land so pay attention!!!

Stay awake in lecture

Lectures suck. there is simply too much information trying to be crammed down your throat in too short of a time. The best thing to do is to come mentally prepared and try not to get caught daydreaming during it. Just pay attention and it will be over before you know it.

Making A Movie

Well its going to be alot harder than i first thought (that's what she said). First thing that is going to be tough is to keep it between 30 seconds and 3 minutes. I feel that this is just going to rush the storyline and i fear it wont turn out the way i want it too. Also my schedule is not going to allow me any free time to actually shoot the movie. This is going to be a major setback for my group but im sure we will find a way to get around it and make a kickass movie and get the most views on youtube. So go team america!

Classroom Activity

Writers Block:
Take a break for ten to 15 minutes
Avoid myspace and facebook
Plagarism:
cite your sources
dont procrastinate
If its nt your idea then put quotes around it and give credit to original author
Making a good speech
know what you are talking about
make eye contact
dont read from notecards
define a purpose
dont turn back to audience

How to turn it around

The best thing to do when your speech is an epic failure and the entire crowd has tuned you out is to keep going. don't get discouraged continue to let your voice be heard because even though you might not know it there is someone out there in this world that agrees with you on the subject.

a Bad speech

we have all seen it happen. when someone is going to give a speech and you know that from the very beginning its going to stink the joint up. It all starts from the opening words and then it just plummets downhill from there. I sad to see it happen but that's life my friends.

Take responsibility

One of the most important things that you can do is own up to your success and failures. Everybody fails eventually but what seperates the men from the children is those who are able to admit their mistakes.

Setting goals

if i had the ability to go back and time and tell myslef one thing it would be that i need to set some goals and do my best to achieve them. Its not enough to go through life unless you have your sights set on something that you want and need to achievee

values

my values are my religion, my family and my education. So it is very important for me to study hard and keep my head straight so that i can get my work done and excel in my classes.

Roomie

Its not going to be easy living with a person i barely even know but thats ok. The one important thing to remember is that its all about compromises and not always trying to be right. All i need to do is be myself and if we dont agree on something find a way to work it out and not fight about it.

Today we took a trip to the Martin Luther King Library in the beautiful downtown san jose area. And let me tell you this, the MLK library is more than just a library its an bottomless pit of helpful resources. For example, they have this one tool called link plus that allows you to check and see if a book you want that is already checked out is available at another library. And the best part is that if it is available they will ship it to MLK for you to have so you dont have to wait for the original copy to be returned. They also have a tool called refwork that allows you to send it information on the sources you want to use for a paper. It then takes this information and puts into a bibliography for you. I dont know about the rest of you, but i hate righting up bibliographies and this beautiful website takes all the pain out of it.

Week 2 of college

Wow, who knew college could be so tiring. It seems that i dont have time to do anything let alone my homework. There needs to be more hours in the day if I going to be able to survive this semester of college.

Crazy Thursday

Well I think I gynxed myself. After posting that the first week of college was awesome the next day a car in the parking lot under my building catches on fire and kicks me out of my dorm from 9 in the moring to about 2:30 that afternoon. College is still really fun though but after I post this I'm going to go knock on some wood for good luck

First Week of College

So this week is my first week of college and i must say it feels good. Classes are a little cramped because of the hundreds of kids trying to add classes right now but other than that college life is awesome.
