Break

The unexpected break this week was great. I caught up on a book I've been wanting to read, slept in, and finally made it back to Curves. What did you all do on your 2 day rain holiday? \

During this break, I slept most of Monday. Yesterday, I went to Douglas for a homecoming court meeting. Then, Terrica, Demea, Aunice, Jordan, Erin, Michelle, and I went to Danny's and ate. Then, Terrica, Aunice, Erin, and I went to Dresses and Dreams to look for a dress. We made Demea come along so we could have a boy's opinion as we tried on dresses.

What's the latest? Are you concerned about any weather issues? Do you have relatives or friends that live in FL that are being affected by this storm?

I haven't been keeping up w/ the storm, and I'm not concerned about it; it's only a category one. All I know is that I'm annoyed b/c all the surrounding counties don't have school and we do. Tift, Echols, Atkinson, Lowndes, Bacon all are out of school today. I have relatives in Miami, but I dont know if they've evactuated or how they're doing.

Assembly

What did you think about the assembly yesterday? Write a paragraph (at least 5 sentences).

The assembly was okay. It was better than I thought it would be. The rapper was pretty lame though. The "what would have happened room" was the best part. I enjoyed the motivational speech by the owner at the end.

Past 2 Days in C305...

Often CEOs have to be away from the office. The employees still have to be productive. Also, the employees are to take pride in their facilities and environment regardless if the CEO/Manager is there to watch over their shoulder. This didn't happen Monday & Tuesday in C305. Why not?How did the class behave? What did you observe happening? If you know any specifics, please report them to me without naming individual students on your blog.

The class behaved like regular. I don't know how many people finished, however, but there weren't any disruptions. We took forever trying to get everyone to sign the roll yesterday though.

Cheating

What are your thoughts on cheating? Explain your thoughts in a paragraph (at least 5 sentences).

I think cheating shows that you can't be trusted. If you cheat, you're only harming urslef in the end b/c when it comes down to things such as standardized tests, you won't be able to cheat. It also affects the person you cheat off of, if any. They worked hard, studing to get to the point where they are. If you cheat off them, it can really make them mad and show how lazy and irresponsible you are.

2008 Summer Olympic Games (China)

What are your thoughts on the Olympics being held in China? Have you been watching the Olympics this week? What effects will the killing of American visitors to the Olympics by a Chinese man have on the US's relationship with China?

I think its a big paradoxal mess. The Olympics is supposed to unite all the countries of the world; however, the killing of the US visitor shows just how much we are not united. Don't get me wrong, I like the opportunity it gives athletes to compete and show their abilities to the world, but this competition, in my opinion, creates more hostility b/w nations who are already hostile toward one another or who already have a strained relationship.
I watched a little of the Olympics, the tennis and swimming conmpetitions, but if it isn't football, it bores me.
