“Right is right only when entire”- Victor Hugo

I think this quote is trying to tell us that right is right only  when we tell the whole true without leaving out any blanks. Even though we want to say the whole truth we need to because you got yourself into the mess and now you have to pay the consequences. Another thing is that we need to know how to choose the right if we want to be right. An example would be, you ask your mom to let you go and hang out with your friends and she says yes. But you have to be back home by 10:00 pm and you’re like sure. Once you’re with your friends you guys decide to go to a bar where you see that drinking is going on. So you guys go on ahead to drink too. Once you arrived home you realize that you made it even before 10. Then your mom comes and asks you what did you do this evening and you tell her, oh we just went to get some food and play a few video games. But in reality you knew that you weren’t doing anything good and now you just lied to your mom. We need to tell the truth because that's the only time when we will be right unless you want to go the wrong path and be wrong all the time.

George Washington

“Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for ‘tis better to be alone than in bad company.”- George Washington

I think what this quote is trying to tell us that we shouldn’t hang out with bad people that can affect our life because then we have nowhere to go. Another thing is that we should hang out with the good people who will actually be able to teach us some good. For example you have some friends and you know that they do drugs. Should you still keep hanging out with them or go and find some new friends that won’t lead you to bad consequences. Having bad company by your side is never a good sign because many thing scan go wrong and we may have to face the consequences our self. But in the other if you hang out with people of good quality meaning that they are nice, friendly, and respectful than you found yourself some good friends. But if you can’t find that anywhere then you should just be alone instead of hanging/ having bad company. Always make sure that you can choose the right so that you won’t lead yourself to the wrong path. Be a person of good quality and not the bad company type.

What this quote is trying to tell you is that you won’t go far if you don’t know where you belong. For example if you belong in the choose the right or if you belong in the choose the wrong path. Only you know where you belong because it's your future and not others. Your parents, friends, and teachers are only there to guide you in choosing a good future for yourself. If you don’t want to take that in then you will be facing some bad consequences and regretting the things you did. Another thing is that if you want to go far in life then you have to work very hard on it so that you can earn it.

Student Siccess Statement

“Only those live who do good”- Count Leo Tolstoy

What this quote is trying to tell us is that only those who do good will be able to live a better, longer life. It’s also sending us a message on why we should do good and what we get out of it. An example of this quote would be your a football player and you don’t care that your family isn’t with you at the moment but you do care about your victory. This tells us that you’re just being selfish which isn’t a good thing because you’re choosing the wrong. We need to be able to choose the right all the time so that we can live with a good conscience. If you decide to choose the wrong you’re only hurting yourself because you won’t be able to live a normal life when you can’t decide what is right for you. If you want to live a long, healthier life then you need to start choosing the right so you can make something out of your life. An advice from me to you is choose the right.

“I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it.”- Dr. Ben Carson

What this quote is trying to tell us is that only you know what is best for you, meaning if you want to be someone successful or unsuccessful in life. Just like Ben, he hated to live in poverty but he knew what was best for him so he decided to change that and work hard so that he can get out of poverty and give his family a better life. He wants us to know that we can do anything that comes to mind as long as we achieve it and work hard for it. We need to choose the right so that we can do something great in life because that’s what Ben did. An example for this quote would be you failing your classes at school and you know that you’re not smart, what should you do? Speak up and ask for help or keep going the wrong way. I would tell you to ask for help because so that you can raise up your grades and do better in the future.

Orthodontic

Orthodontic

   I chose the topic orthodontic because when I get older I would like to become one. Another reason why I chose this is because when I was in second grade they told us to write and draw a picture of our career and what we want to be. So I decided that I would become a dentist/orthodontic. Now that I’m older I have decided that I will proceed this as my career later on. My family is happy that I know what I want to be already. Orthodontics is a dental speciality which aims to prevent, diagnose, and treat facial and dental irregularities such as malocclusion(bad bites). Something good about this is that they can treat you at any age. They are responsible for closing wide gaps between the teeth, straightening crooked teeth, treat an improper bite, etc… They usually deal with hardware, such as retainers and headgears with the goal of aligning teeth and improve the appearance of the person to chew or swallow without any pain. So I hope that my dream of becoming one will happen so that I can make others happy. 

         

Wrong is never right

“Even if everyone is doing it, wrong is never right”- Russell M. Nelson

What this quote is trying to tell us is that you can't do something wrong and think that you’re doing the right thing because in reality you’re not. You can also hurt someone by choosing the wrong and you're not realizing because you don’t want to or you think it is the right thing. An example of this quote would be your with you’re friends down the street and you see them spray painting the wall and they ask you to join them because they say nothing bad will happen. What should you do? Back away or go ahead and join them. I think that you should just back away and leave them because if you join them you’re going to hurt yourself and lead yourself to the wrong path. Doing something wrong doesn’t always mean that you’re right. Don’t let yourself be talked into something you know will affect you because wrong is never right. So choose the right and make wise choices everyday.

                                                

London

London

I would like to go to London which is the capital of England and the United Kingdom. Did you know that it is a 21st century city with history stretching back to Roman times. London was the first city in the world to have an underground railway known as the tube. Some of the most important people from countries all over the world visit the The Queen at Buckingham Palace. I decide to choose this place because my grandpa once went to London and he told me that it was a really beautiful place. Once I get older I would like to go because I would like to see it for myself. Another reason I chose London was because I would like to visit some of my friends that I made through social media and it all started when we liked the same music. I didn’t know that across the Thames River, the London Eye observation wheel provides you with panoramic views of the South Bank cultural complex and the entire city. They also have the Tower Bridge and I would like to go visit it as well because I want to know everything about London. London is like my second home.
