I am an 11th grader who attends Linda Marquez High School. I am a hard worker at school. I try to be as involved as I can, such as being in part of school clubs. I am also in the school's varsity basketball team. I love basketball, Thai tea, and Italian food. I hope to attend UCLA after graduating high school. I wish to have a successful career as a doctor. I am a very optimistic person. I was blessed with the best people in the world, which i am lucky to call my family and friends. I wish nothing but the best for myself, and i am excited for the future!

Student Success Statement/Reflection


Student Success Statement

“Gold medals don’t make champions… hard work does.”

-Anon

Reflection

 Having heard this quote multiple times, it always motivates me to work harder. I definitely agree with this quote. A gold metal does not mean that a person is a champion. A gold metal does not define a person. A person has to work hard to be great. Once they have work hard they are champions because they deserve it. A metal is an award for that hard work.

It’s Online, but Is It on Target? Part 1


It’s Online, but Is It on Target?

Part 1


Using the Web Wisely

Thanks to the Web, information is easy to find. However, it’s also easy to post something online. Anyone can do it.

You’ve probably used the Internet to do research for a paper, toy help you decide which product to buy, or to form an opinion about current events. Looking up information online is fast and convenient t. But when you do online research, it’s important to find sites you can trust.

Many websites claim to have the facts, but are full of errors. Other present information in a biased way – they only give one side of an argument. How can you tell a reliable source from an unreliable one?

Also, it is critical that you post online only that which is decent and appropriate, never anything pornographic, vulgar, indecent, out of taste, untruthful, or obscene. Post those things that will make a good name for you and your organization, that will promote goodwill and be of benefit to the world.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Student Success Statement/ Reflection


Student Success Statement

“When an archer misses the mark, he turns and looks for the fault within himself. Failure to hit the bull-eye is never the fault of the target. To improve your aim, improve yourself.”

 

Reflection

We all have goals and when we don’t reach them that mean that we need to be better to do so. One has to improve themselves, maybe more practice and harder work. If we improve ourselves we can get closer to our goals until reaching them. We can’t put the blame on anything else but our selves. We are the reason why we do or don’t reach a goal.

Student Success Statement/Reflection


Student Success Statement

“Character is higher than intellect.”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

Reflection

This quotes claims that character is much for important that intellect. One is most definitely identified by their character rather than how intelligent one is. We should take in consideration that character takes a huge part in our lives. Although it is important to expand our knowledge we can never forget to keep working on our character. Character lands above intellect. Having a great character may lead you farther than having great intellect.
