Great!
This week, I am grateful that I got the LLL scholarship in the first attempt, it will definitely help me in my next four years of College. Also, the interview i had on Tuesday for the Meritus scholarship that i will hopefully get. This week has been full of surprises for me because I also finished my last essay for the last book in AP English class. I am grateful for the oportunities that have been offered to me that will help me achieve my goals in the future.

Philosophy
People have different perspectives of life, is either black and white or a colorful fulfilled with many many opportunities. In my opinion is due to their evryday lives and the type of life they grew up in. Not only that, but also they way their minds progresses different situations. People are just very optimistic and no matter if negative things keep happening to them, they take it as a way to push their limits to reach a certain goal. In the other hand people who are pessimistic just give up in life/goal because they have probably failed in one of their goals. Life is not perfect and will never be, and if you never fail in life, you will never know how success feels like. The failures that we experience is to push ourselves and to get out from our comfort zone and to realize what we are capable of becoming and achieving. Life offers many different things and choices and it is up to ourselves to choose how we want to view life.

Project deadline
When a deadline is coming up and i do not have the resources to finish it, it becomes a stress. However i know that it is my responsibility to meet that deadline. My strategy to do so is to complete it using my own knowledge of the programs and the only resources available to me. I would work with the only things that i have, if it has to do with pictures. I usually dont ask others for help because, they have deadlines to meet as well, and sometimes it is very stressful to meet our own deadlines and help others as well.

The world
To choose something, that i would like to see different about the world, is kind of hard for me to choose something. But what i would say is to stop the violence against violence because it leads to negative conclusions. For example 9/11 is one of the reasons why we are now in war. The war has led us to poverty in our country. Country who has been ontop of evryone else, and knowing that everyday that passes always goes down, is depressng. especially because i do not know what my future holds for me, and i expect the best. sometimes the best feels out of reach. The war is to blame, of the economy of today.

Breaking the Rules
One of the things that i have done wrong lately was not so long ago. For example about two Thursdays ago i came decided not to come to school for the first half of the day. I had not done that in a long time, and i decided to that day. i broke one of the rules that my mom always said to me. To always behave and take care of myself. I wasn't doing anything bad, but just the fact of skipping part of the day makes it breaking the rules. i doubt that it will happen again, but there is always the influence of others around us. I always have trouble saying no to the things that are wrong but not that big. Of course if someone jumps off the bridge i wont do that either.

Define Culture
In my opinion culture is what describes your background. There are a lot of different cultures due to different races around the world. Culture is what the different activities that you do, the type of clothes that you wear, the food that you eat and many more. For example the type of life style that many of us have and what our ancestors had. I'm mostly Guatemalan and is very different from other races. We also have what we call May first to celebrate the Latino culture and as we have a day other races do as well. It is a very good day to learn about other cultures and get out of the ignorance of those cultures who might play a big role now in our society.

Yearbook reflection
I turned the yearbook page on time. I tried to do my best but, because of my lack of understanding on Photoshop i was not able to do it more fancy, or nice.
