Mr. H's class... you would wish you were in it.

In my history class, my favorite teacher, Mr. H, has been going over what 'debating,' is... its not an argument, but a conversation to solve what the conflict is... we were 'debating,' about our enrichment we have... an extra 20-25 minutes, where we get to pick something we want to do, on Tuesday and Thursday's, mostly a break of the day. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, we have literacy, which is reading, same amount of time as enrichment... our principle, Mr. O, came into our class to see what we thought about this enrichment problem. So we 'debated,' and some of the students in my fourth hour history class said some things like..
" it would be easier if we just took enrichment away, and had a recess instead, right after lunch."
" we could have an enrichment class where we go outside."
and then there was one person who said, " I think we're being selfish, kids come to school to learn, not to have fun."
In a way the kid was a little right. If you think about it, we were kind of being selfish... we have an extra 20-25 minutes where we don't have to worry about homework, unless your failing then your put in remediation. Even though we have a extra time in school, to have a break, we want more. Which to us seems simple, we take out enrichment, and use that time for recess after lunch, but you have to think, (we're in 8th grade ) what about the 7th, and 6th graders? we would be taking there enrichment time too, so then we decided it could be just an 8th grade thing... which in a way makes since too, but then we have to have supervision, which means we take some time from the teachers lunch, just to have a little time outside.

So the question that I ask in my head is.... " Why do the kids think that taking time from the teachers is okay? Because they want free-time, which could also just cause problems, like fights, and other things?"

                                                 another thing I learned in my history class is,
                                                        FREEDOM OF SPEECH!
                 I can say that I think we shouldn't even have a president, and I wont be executed or thrown in jail. as long as it doesn't make a crime... for example...
Mr.. H couldn't get all the students to rise up against, the principle Mr. O. Yes he has freedom to tell us that he doesn't like Mr. O ( which isn't true, the teacher is the best, and he likes pretty much everybody ) but he cant have a speech that influences violence.

                         This is just a few things I learned so far in my 4th hour history class with the best teacher in the world, Mr. H. ^.^

More Quote's (unkown) artist's

I found these on pinterest.

  "I miss you a little,
I guess you could say,
    a little to much,
    a little to often,
   and a little more
        each day..."


People will always have
Their opinions of you
 despite who you are
   and what you
     are capable


Sometimes I have to remind myself
that I don't have to do what everyone else
   is doing.


May we be
consumed
  with the
CREATOR
of all things
rather than
with things
CREATED


"God can restore what is broken and change it into something amazing. All you need is faith."
                                                                        Joel 2:25

Whatever is worrying you right now,
forget about it.
Take a deep breath,
and trust in God.


So do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will care for itself.


Look like a girl
Act like a lady
think like a man
act like a boss

The grass is always greener
where you water it.

Keep
Calm
YOU HAVE
a big and powerful
       GOD

OPPORTUNITY
is missed by most
people because
it is dresses in
overalls and
looks like work.
         -Thomas Edison


Never get so busy
making a
living
that you forget to
make a life.


The time you enjoy wasting
is not wasted time..

quote, by unkown author ( i forgot to write it down, and dont know what the name is...)

Never apologize for saying what you feel, because that's like saying "Sorry for being real."


   I went to my friends house a couple days ago, and she had this written down, and I really liked it, so I decided to share it with all the people who look on my blog.

saying something you feel, is very special, because, its who you are, and if people don't know that, than you are.. forgotten. If people know you, and you share with them, things that really mean to you, than people will know you better. Say, and Do things that people will remember ( preferably good things )   Leave a legacy. Become someone who is remembered.

Kansas city, mission trip.

I got back from my mission trip not to long ago, and I have to admit, it was better than I was expecting. We helped make the kids in the, old a run down, neighborhood have some fun, and we also had an adult block party, kids could come to, where we gave them groceries, and food. I felt so happy when I saw all the kids smiling, and laughing, and playing. I feel like we really made a difference.

On the last day, I was on the bouncy house duty, and the gate was locked so my whole group was waiting outside the gate. I decided to climb over the gate, I used to climb tree's when I was little, and sometimes our fence, so I didn't think it would be hard. I also forgot about how long my shorts were, since it was a rule for World Mpact, to have shorts that go to your knee's, ( I was wearing boy shorts. ) Well, I got to the top of the fence, and I jumped, what I didn't know though, was my shorts had not gotten all over the fence yet, ( the fence was just little black poles, not a really high fence either, and it wasn't really sharp or anything. ) So my shorts got caught on the fence pole, and I'm not all that tall, so I was dangling by my shorts, and thankfully I had white little shorts on under my long boy shorts, because it pulled my shorts all the way up, and almost everybody in my mission group saw it. My friends will probably never let me forget that, but I don't need reminded, I will never forget about that. ( Now I'm kind of afraid of fences. )

These are the things I highlighted in a book I just finished, called "Last Light," by Terri Blackstock

"Ever day of your life you'll have to make decisions about what kind of man you want to be. Its not going to start when your older. Its starts right now. And every time you make a decision to be less than what God wants for you, your denying yourself some of God's blessings. Its up to you. You can live a life with god's blessings, or just exist with all the consequences of choosing wrong."
                                                                   -page 152 in, "last light."

"One wrong choice can change your whole life, Jeff. Just one. And one right one can turn you away from a world of trouble."
                                              -page 152 in, "last light."

"And the job of a mother is more important than any job a woman can have. It requires strength, character, discipline, patience, organization, intuition, and a strong work ethic. When you cant see those things, when your eyes are dimmed by your own ambitions, dreams, then sometimes God has to teach you how wrong you are. I don't want Him to have to do that. I'd rather you just loved people and saw them as worthwhile."
                                                              -page 165 in, "last light."

"Maybe it's time we find out what it's like to need, so we can see how big God is."
                                                   -page 173 in, "last light."

"Therefore do not worry about  tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
                                    -page 186, in "last light," also in bible, found in Matthew.

"Those aren't the right questions, Kay. the question is, do you trust Him? Whatever the case, whatever He has planned for you or you husband or children... Do you trust Him to do the right thing?"
                                           -page 321 in, "last light."


"Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. And the world is passing away, and also its lusts;  but the one who does the will of God abides forever." 1 john 2:15-17.
                              
                                                                - page 353 in, "last light."

"It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give drink without cost from the spring of water of life. He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son." Revelation 21:1-7
                                                                                                 - in the afterword in, "last light."

Memories with your beloved

The rain drops started coming slowly, almost silently. It was nice weather, a soft thunder, and the sound of light rain, made the hot air turn a little cool. It was truly peacful. We could hear the faint chirping of birds, and a few dogs barking, as the rain got harder. The dog looked longingly at the grass, but stayed on the covered patio, for fear of being locked outside, because it was wet. It was quiet now, except for the barking, rain, and thunder. It was perfect for a little singing. We held hands as we sang our favorite songs, and whistled some tunes. We gradually became aware that it was pouring now, but we didnt care. We started dancing while we hummed our favorite,"love song." It was so peacful. Times like this makes you want to hold tight to your loved one, and make more memories, because once their gone, the memories is all you have left, until you join them again in heaven. making memories with your beloved is a special part of life. It's what makes love so strong.
