Write about a time when you realized that your perception of a person or group was based on stereotypes. How did this realization affect your behavior or beliefs? What steps did you take to change your perceptions?"

 There was a time when I assumed that all "mean people" were simply cruel for no reason, but I later realized that many act that way because of personal struggles, insecurities, or past experiences. This changed my perspective, making me more patient and understanding instead of reacting with frustration. I started listening more, asking questions instead of assuming the worst, and reminding myself that kindness can sometimes soften even the harshest attitudes. While some people may still choose to be unkind, I’ve learned that responding with empathy often leads to better interactions and sometimes even unexpected friendships.

Today in class we started a group project showing films that demonstrates negative stereotypes of cultures.

Today was good, tomorrow will be better.

Write about an object that holds sentimental value and why it’s important to you.

 One of the most treasured items I have is my grandpa’s journal. It’s a simple, leather-bound book, but it holds so much more than just paper and ink. My grandpa began writing in it when he was a young man, recording his thoughts, experiences, and lessons he learned throughout his life. It’s filled with stories from his youth, his time in the military, and even small moments that meant something to him—like the time he learned to fish or the day he met my grandmother. Reading through his journal makes me feel connected to him in a way I never imagined. Even though he’s no longer here, his words offer me comfort, wisdom, and a sense of understanding about the man he was. It’s a reminder of the values he lived by and the legacy he left behind, and it’s something I’ll cherish forever. Today I'm doing all my missing assignments

 To prepare for a career that pays more than minimum wage, I can start by focusing on my education and building useful skills.

If you could plan the perfect spring break with no limitation, money, time, or responsibilities—what would it look like? Where would you go, who would you bring, and what would you do?

For the perfect spring break, my friends and I would head to Colorado for an epic skiing adventure. We’d hit the slopes, enjoying the crisp mountain air and some thrilling runs down the peaks. Afterward, we’d jet off to Los Angeles, where we’d rent some exotic cars and cruise around the city, feeling like VIPs. Shopping on Rodeo Drive would be a must, picking up some high-end pieces. We'd book a beautiful Airbnb with stunning views and spend the evenings relaxing in style. To top it all off, we’d invite some amazing women over for a fun, memorable night of laughter and good vibes. It would be the perfect combination of adventure, luxury, and relaxation. Today in class we are making up work before the break to help our grade. Thank you Mr. Resse Today was good. this whole week is gonna be amazing.
