Failure is a Good Thing 11-17-06

1. Write down a quote that you agree with or disagree with, and explain why you agree or disagree.
"Success is boring. Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do...Failure is how we learn." I really agree with that quote because success is boring. People are not rewarded with what they did wrong but with what they did right. What we did right is something we know we can handle, something we know we can deal with. That's why I agree.

2. Describe one of the biggest failures you've made in your life. How did the failure affect you? What did you learn from the failure?
One of my biggest failures was messing up in my clarinet recital andI was embarrassed I knew I was probably going to mess up, but I tried anyway and after, I practiced and I got it down.

3. Why do you think I'm having you listen to this story?
You made us listen to the story because you wanted us to learn that its ok to mess up and to not stress over it because you can always get back on the horse.

Like Whoo!

Halloween was so fun! I got 8lbs. of candy! I went with my friend Chaya, her brother Sam, and my bro Cody. I was Dorthy from the wizard of OZ. Chaya was a dead bride. Sam was a nija. My bro was a nija/hippie (don't ask why, half the time my parents don't even know whats going on in his head). We went with my dad around the Culver city area then around 9MP we hit Venice (not for long...nobody was out) Then I took my friends home and I sorted my candy and went to bed. The next day I went to my moms house and Chaya and I traded candy. I have all good stuff now! YES! Then I weighed it again and now its 10lbs. so I was like whoo!
