Today in class we talked more about A Message To Garcia and how you should just do your job when asked. We also looked at a PowerPoint on Excellence and why it is important. Mr. Schick showed us both new and old vocabulary and their definitions so we could copy them down. Then he told us about moral virtues and how when he was in Boston he found a woman's wallet and brought it up to the front counter so she could pick it up. He told us that he didn't have to do that and that he could have just taken the money and her ID and everything but that isn't the right thing to do. He then told us about a little diner he went to and how his daughter gave a man a cup of hot chocolate because he was standing in the rain playing with his daughter. Mr. Schick told us that his daughter didn't have to give him the hot chocolate but she did because it was a nice thing to do. Life is really about the little things and if the little things can make satisfy you than you are truly happy. I don't need much to brighten my day. For instance, I usually tell teachers good morning or nod to them and that usually brightens either mine or their day.
Notes Today we took notes on a presentation regarding information needed for a test tomorrow. I will not be taking this test and I probably won't be taking it this week at all. I will not be here Monday, Tuesday, and maybe even Wednesday of next week because I will be with family in Salisbury again for the service. I am not really sure what to put into this blog because I wasn't really here mentally or emotionally first mod. I hope to get back on track with my schoolwork next Wednesday or Thursday and finish out the year strong.
