Class Evaluation --- Mr.Haymore Block 3 Computer Class

1.        Some things I liked about this class was the fact that it relied a    lot on choosing the right and becoming a better person. I think this class made me change a lot about honesty, integrity, and a lot of other personality traits. What I liked about this class also was that it was very unique. Never in my 14 years have I had a class that taught so much about choices and pathways.  
2.        Some this that I did not like about this class it the fact that it has the SAME routine. And that little light appears in the classroom so it makes me sleepy. Also I didn’t like how we sit in the same computer every single time so it makes the class dull. But besides that I really think this class has taught me a lot of wonderful things.
3.        Some recommendations for improving the class would be create more interesting activities to do besides typing tutor, students success statement, and career pathways. However, I am not good at advices or recommendations so I literally don’t know how to improve this class.
4.       A highlight for me in this class was able to relate to some of the quotes we wrote about. I think that somehow those quotes made me think about my mistakes and how I could overpass them. Yet, I haven’t but I think that was my biggest highlight of this class.
5.       For this class, I really think I did do my best for the projects we were assigned to do like the 10 states project and the ctr project. But besides that for every student success statement i tried to really put thought into them and actually express what i feel about them. So yes, I really do think I tried my very best in this class.
6.      Yes, I most of the time read my Life Planning Goals because it is like my agenda, I feel like I feel more organized writing them as a goal than as a “to do” in the school agenda because it motivates me to achieve my goals. Also I sometimes like to mark victory for every goal I achieved so I think the Life Planning Journal was a good idea.
7.     To be honest, I do not know yet if i am committed to being a CTR person, because I always end up making mistakes or fibbing about something I did, because I believe it is better for someone. I also think that no one can truly be committed to be a CTR person because we are not perfect, you can’t say you haven’t lied, or purposely pretending not to see what happened in order not to help someone, or make an excuse just to surpass the situation. However, I do think I try my best every day to be someone I can be proud of and  I make sure I used the day god has granted me with good purposes.

“Honesty”

           

In this situation there was two examples of honesty and hard moments. When it comes to taking tests that will determine our future we, acknowledge that if we don’t pass the test it is the end of the world for us. But what is better, passing the test by cheating or passing the test by working hard and trying your best. Cheating is never a good option, because you are lying not only to the criteria but you are lying to yourself. These medical students pulled out a cheat sheet to pass the test and not retake it again. Although some situations are costly and difficult like medical school cheating on a test would not make you any better than not doing the test, because if they get away with cheating people’s lives would be on their hands. Fortunately there was a brave man who stood up and told them all that he indeed worked hard for a position in that medical school and that he would turn in anyone who he saw cheating. Thanks to him that medical school had many graduate students tha were able to be successful in life.

                     “When you tell One Lie it Leads to Another”        

If you ever told a lie you know what this quote is trying to prove, because when you tell a lie you are not only lying about that 1 thing, you have to make up more lies to cover up that small lie. Even if it was just lie about who ate the last cookie. You obviously would say it was not you, it was your baby brother. Haa that would be funny because what if your baby brother can’t walk you have to make a lie for that reason to. When you make up one lie people start to question if you are trustworthy or not. You start to realize you have less friends and people don’t want to include you in secrets because they think you are a big mouth. When you choose to do the wrong thing there would always be consequences and the truth would eventually come out. The thing is you are only doing the right when you choose to accept your consequences and tell the truth. In my experience saying the truth could be hard because you know that when that truth comes out you would be in big problems, but when that day comes you would be glad you told the truth because you won’t be drown in that guilt you had for so long. However, there is this quote that goes like this “you could choose your sin, but you could not choose your consequences” so whatever you think is bad don’t do it because covering up that mistake with lies would just leave you with remorse.

  The Sting of a Scorpion

                                                                              -Elder Patrick Kearon

In this short memory of Patrick Kearon he talks about a time when he disobeyed his parents on a trip to the Arabian Peninsula.  His mother had told him to always wear shoes when he was going to walk around in the desert sand, but that one time he decided to be rebellious and lazy that he wore his sandals to walk around instead. He was later stung by a scorpion and had to suffer the pain for more than two hours until they got to the hospital. Patrick was fortunate enough that his parents were nearby to carry him and take him to the hospital. But if he had been further away he would of had to suffer more pain and the consequences would of been more severe. This story that Patrick told us teaches us all that Choosing the wrong and being disobedient leads to more than just pain. It affects the people around you when you decide to do bad choices. Older people have already passed through teen years and pressure so they know what they are telling you when they say “do this” and “don’t do this.”

“ Always Do Right”

                                   

Nowadays most people and children are growing up using bad words and being disrespectful because of society. But this is because they way people educate and act upon certain things. When you use violence in front of a child they would grow up to be aggressive themselves. So it is better to do the right thing and teach them good qualities when they are young before it is too late. Always doing the right would not grant you regret because when you choose to do the right thing you are becoming more humble and kind amongst others rather than building up rancor. Like I said today many people are not choosing the right so it is quite astonishing when you see someone doing the right things and being generous. Some people admire these types of actions and even if others don’t what your choices are is what makes you who you are. It is rather great to have quality than quantity. All others may be falling off track but it is never too late to start doing what is right. The best things come out of good actions.

“It’s better to be alone, than to be with bad company”

        
                                                                               -Unknown

Being alone can mean a lot of things, you can be alone but have a lot of people around you, or you can be alone but have just that 1 person, or you could be alone and have nobody. Whichever the problem is, it is always better to be alone than with bad company, because later on in life having bad company includes fake people, and bad reputations. If you hang out with people who drink and party all the time people would see you as one of them even if you don’t drink. Having bad company can influence you to do the wrong choices you can not take back. So instead of having bad people surrounding you, it is a lot better to be alone or associate with good people who actually want to see you succeed in life. However, you cannot be lonely if you like the person you are alone with. I mean if you are happy about yourself you can have fun by yourself. You can become a better person by choosing the right and be with good people.
