The activity I did was "Ways of Seeing". It showed a picture of segregation how the blacks and whites couldn't be united and everything was seperate. The point it was trying to make was for people to see how it was back then. What I learned from the activity was that everyone should treat everyone equally. And no one should be treated like the world is different because everyone lives together so they should all be united.

What I did well in the first semester is that I tried to do extra credit and went to office hours ans asked teachers for help when I needed it.
I did poorly because I really didnt get the concept of what I was learning. I also did poorly on the tests and didnt do my homework on a regular bases.
What I need to do to get even better grades in the second semester is do my homework, study for when the tests come and pay well attention in class.
I will really try my best to do well and pass this year/semester.

The most difficult and interesting thing I had to do this year was the onw where I made my own website. I had to write codes and Mr. Hsu made us correct the code. We had to make our own links. It was very interesting and fun at the same time. I really enjoyed doing that project.

Well Christmas is coming and I am very stressed because I have to work a lot so that I could buy people I know, presents...I have also been very stressed lately because of problems at home. I need to let all this anger out but I dont know how. Boys are a pain, my mom is a pain, and sometimes my friends can be a pain. I am trying to do better in school, but for some reason, I just can't pay attention. I am struggling with math especially, but I do hope to do better as the semester passes. This is how I am feeling right now.

What I think about the meaning of "Stop Hurting Yourself", is that you shouldn't hurt yourself by trying to commit suicide, doing drugs to hurt yourself or anything like that. Many people try to hurt themselves by doing stupid things like that, but they are only hurting themselves and making the problem worse rather than better.
There was an incident yesterday at school, where there was a girl who was probably going through some difficult times and she decided she was going to drink, she drank alcohol, became drunk and later in 5th period, she started throwing up and about 2 minutes later she fainted and the school staff had to call the ambulance and she was sent to the hospital. Im am not sure how she is doing roght now, but I did here she was okay, but she still hurt herslelf in a bad way. That is why you shouldn't try to hurt yourself.

"she who has broken many pots" I agree with this quote because a lot of people make a lot of mistakes and sometimes keep on doing them over and over again. A lot of people tend to make failures because they are not aware of what they do.
One of the biggest failures that I have made in my life is when I don't take school seriously. And I get really bad consequences, as in getting bad grades. This failure affects me because this is the step I need to take seriously in order to get on with life. What I learned is that I do need to take school seriously and really focus on whats ahead.
I think the reason why I'm having to listen to this story is because, to improve reading skills, or for us to know, that sometimes failure is a good thing, and then you learn.

3 things I have learned since I have came to this class is how to put web pages on the internet. Another thing I have learned is how to do codes. The last thing I learned was more computer skills.
3 things I want to learn is how to make MORE web pages and put a lot more web pages on the internet. Another thing I want to learn is how to control the computer and make things work when they are not working.
