Worthy Mentors

1)Daniel Araiza I have known Daniel for a while and we talk about the world and how it is pretty crazy and when we talk its mainly about what we have seen or been through and I think he will be a good help with my big question.  2)Bernardita Morelos I know her through a close companion of mine and I observe that she is one who is very observative  and very well eye opened and that definitely comes in handy about my big question, why? Who else is going to look at your journey for you? 3)Juan Mejia I met Juan through two friends and I like how he goes by life with joy and watching how for himself and taking care of himself. That is a great resource to use. 4)Juan Martinez Juan and I went to the same junior high and that's how I know him, This year I have noticed him observing the little tings about life and questioning why this is and also just him going with the flow. Another great resource. 5)Alex Montgomery Alex and I also went to the same junior high and...

Cue theme music

The Great Gatsby book, well from what I have read is telling me that, It's a journey about you and where you go and what you see and who you meet and in just by a little time, there is so much that you experience and how it's ridiculous in such little time that your own life can go at a ridiculous speed and how your able to see it. This book really impacts on how you see what you will get if you give up. But there's always a way to change that.

My pre-write (preview of Gatsby Essay)

The last line in the book quotes, "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne ceaselessly into the past." And that quote is very unique and perfect for anyone stuck in the past. Because whatever has happen in the past that we know we can not take back or go back to it, whether it was good or bad. The past was the only beginning for us to start our whole life which includes the future as well. The past is the start for the finish line but only if we let it finish. The past can be the start.

Have to versus want to versus get to

Doing work in your own way, Do you have a routine? Or just be organized? or Set reminders? or Do everything in order? We all have different and unique ways of doing what we do. What makes it different is comparing to ourselves to others.
