"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."
Helen Keller

What this quote by Helen Keller is saying two minds is greater than one. If you have two people you will have greater chances of learning better compared to doing it on you own. An example could be, lets say you need to study for an important exam. You are all alone and need someone to quiz  you. That is why together you can do so much. If you need help on a problem you can ask for help from that person. So it is up to you, you can do so little or so poor by yourself. Or get a better understanding from a friend. I am not saying be a free loader and get all the answers from your friends, you need to put some effort in order for you to really understand the subject. So remember, two minds is greater than one. If you are unsure of this quote it basically means the same thing as Helen Keller quote.

"So often, in our quest to be more popular and to be part of the "in-group," we lose sight of things that are far more important." 
Sean Covey 

What this quote means is that we lose ourselves upon personal objectives to fulfill. We then lose what we intentionally intended to do. The human brain doesn't remember everything, so we lose track of what we had to do. So most humans seek popularity often forget about their real friends from the beginning. An example could be of my good friend Christian V. He was one of my best friends. He then tried out for basketball. And our friendship slowly faded. Now I see him only in my classes. I used hangout with him during lunch,  but now that he is part of the team I really don't anymore. So, he wanted to be in the "in-group" and he became popular. And we slowly still till this day, our friendship fades. So hopefully Christian V. you know who you are, I hope you actually read this and say "what's up!"

"You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible." 

Ezra Taft Benson 

In my opinion I believe that this means your conscious. Your conscious tells you whether you did something positive or negative. And example could be, lets say you didn't study for a test. Your conscious will be telling you, you did wrong. But if have been studying for the last couple of weeks, your conscious will be telling you positive things. So yes, I know when you do wrong you cannot feel right. There is another term for this phrase, rather quote. That word is guilt.

"The only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure. Thus, the first law I will obey; which precedeth all others is--'I will form good habits and become their slaves." 


Og Mandino   

In my short yet brief summary, we will talk about this outstanding quote. Basically if you do right and do what you are supposed to do you succeed. An if slack off and don't do whats said to be done, you will fail. I mean not only fail a test but also life. You mostly see people succeeding if they went to school and finished. Plus they went to college. And now for the opposite, if you fail everything, come late, and don't do anything in life,  you will be nothing in life. You will work for the circus according to my new media teacher a while back. This only goes for the slackers and the kids/adults who are NOT responsible!

"Nothing is ever gained in doing what's wrong."
Wilford Woodruff
 
This quote is is absolutely correct. If you do whats right you will have evrything you possibly wanted. But id you choose the wrong, you will get nothing. So if you do not believe in this quote, I believe you have gotten nothing. What I mean by nothing is that you have done something wrong and didn't achieve anything. But let's say you have done right, you will be flourished with gifts, such as respect, honesty, loyalty, and much more.

"It's not WHERE you live but HOW you live that counts. It's not where you play the game but HOW you play the game that counts.
-Mr. Haymore
This quote by my New MEdia teacher means everything to evrybody. You can straighten out your life if you follow this quote. An example would be if you play a sport. Your not only going to play well for where you represent. But maybe you go on another team, so you will play outstanding for them too. What I'm trying to say is that your not just goin got waste you talent. So, back to where this can straighten out your life. If you Choose the right, follow every rule, and obide by them; you will be successful. Another example could be when your slacking off in class, bur remember; it's how you work and respect the rules that decide your future. So, if your slacking off in class; you have no bright future. But if your doing right; you have a outstanding bright furture and have endless possibilities !
So, if you do the right, you have nothing to worry about.

"Goodness is the only investment that never fails."
 
--Henry David Thoreau  
 
 
What this post means is that no matter what you do you always have to try harder doing the right. If you invest most of your time doing the right instead of doing the wrong then I would encourage you to do the opposite. If you are doing whats right and listening to others i bet anything that you are succeeding. And if you are succeeding, you are following this quote right know. So, I srtongly recommened you invest most of your time by doing what right instead of investing your time doing the wrong!

"It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and (to make) unpopular that which is unsound (and not good)."
Joseph Smith
 
What this quote means is that to focus on the good things but not the bad. I mean it is common sense to do good rather than bad. If you are one of those people who constantly choose the wrong I think you are dumd or something. Your are just ruining someone else's day just because you did wrong. But if you do good and choose the right, I wish I could shake your had right now. Hopefully you stay on that path and don't go off track. So either way, if you are on the wrong path I encourage you to go on the right path while you still can!

High School Graduation Pleasure OR Pain

High School Graduation Pleasure OR Pain 

I my opinion I think this was alright. I think it was okay she had gotten arrested. It is her lose because she was told the rules at the beginning of the ceremony. But even before that I think. So yeah, I also think that it was fair that she had gotten arrested because it is not fair that the mother was only cheering on for her. So that is not fair towards others. And also for the next student it is not fair, the crowd might be cheering and the next student might not hear their name to cross the stage. So yes, I think it was alright for her to get arrested. She should have chosen the right and listened to the rule: just clap!
