“When obedience becomes our goal, It is no longer an irritation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block.”

James E. Faust

This statement is sending me a message that says obedience should be a natural thing that comes to you. if you practice and practice being obedience, it will be easy enough to actually be obedience. Most people at school are about 50% obedience and 50% not. For example I follow the rules, but when it comes to texting during class time, I don’t take that school serious. I text during class if I want. One time I was even talking on the phone in class, having a regular conversation and that’s it. the teacher never found out and I didn’t get my phone token away, because I was wearing ear phones. The teacher thought I was talking with the person next to me. The point is, I know that is wrong. There is like no point for it to be 50%. It’s a bad habit that has to shake, and I need help. No one can change alone.

“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”

Benjamin Franklin

This statement is trying to send a message that says it is best to go asleep early. I am always the first one to go to sleep early in my family. By 8:30 I’m already in bed and by the time its 9:00 I’m asleep. To be honest I don’t believe in the statement when they say “if you go to sleep early, you can wake up early.” I disagree because the time that I have gone to sleep at 12:00 or 1:00 in the morning, I wake up at 8:00 or so because o can’t sleep in. I don’t have a sleeping problem like others. I cannot go to sleep throughout the day because I hate it. the day is for people to be awake and up and out doing about. At night that is when I can sleep and even then if I go to sleep early I wake up at 8 or 9 o’clock in the morning. The latest I have ever slept in was 11:30. I think I was very tired that day.

Top 5 Heart Health Tip

1.     Try to keep a healthy diet

2.    Avoid smoking

3.    Keep an active life style

4.    Maintaining a healthy body weight

5.    Reduce your stress

Improving my health

My health diet is good. I hear that fish is very good for your health; I eat fish at least 3 times a month sometimes more. My grandma is always cooking vegetables; I eat vegetables at least 3 times a week or so. Avoid smoking is my number one. Keep an active life style is good for me because the sport I play is water polo and swim; I have practice every day except Saturday and Sunday. During the summer I am planning to swim still to keep my speed. I also want to go to the park and run maybe do some sit ups or pushups to stay fit. Maintaining a healthy body weight, I feel like that is not a problem because I workout and I do eat a lot but it is healthy foods. I am under the body weight I should be right now. For girls that are age 14/15 their weight should be about 120 through 130, my weight is about 115 or through 110. Way below average. Reducing my stress, I have learned how to deal with my stress by talking it out and saying how I feel out loud. I usually have my mom to talk about the stress that I tend to have.

“Act well your part; there all honor lies.”

Alexander Pope

This statement is trying to send a message that says lies are lies. No matter how big or small they are. Lies lead to horrible situations that can’t be fixed. The things you say can hurt people in a way no one can explain. Words are stronger than body language. Teaching your mouth not to say lies is hard, because in the world that we live in lies is a bad habit that we need to shake. For example some children think that if you lie it isn’t such a big deal. Bad habits can take over us, and soon we won’t have a choice. It will just be a natural thing to do.

If you played a good game and you lost, it doesn't matter because you tried. You didn't let the other team step all over you. When you cheat and win, it makes you feel guilty. Yea at the moment you don’t think and you’re happy because of the score. That just shows you aren't committed and you don’t care whether you’re a better player or not.
