School

Yesterday, I got to stay after in my residential electricity class and I finished all of the labs that we had to do there were 19 of them in the semester. I am still working on the final project but all I have to do know is draw in my lines that connect it so that they will turn on and off and get power otherwise they won't work. I am also done in my Power Tech class which I have also started to help other people with. My favorite class and not just because I have to write these is Journalistic Writing 10. Every now and then you have a really fun and hilarious teacher but. Mr. Worth is a character you will never have someone who gets the point to you he does some weird things at times but it all makes sense in the end because he wraps it into a lesson. He can take something that seems so dull and make it interesting. Like "Time, Date, Place" Publications teacher Riley Worth said. He went around the room saying TDP and you know that caught in our minds and we haven't forgotten it since.

Importance (or lack thereof) of intelligence

I think that I say this today on one of the power tech kids engines he finished putting it together and it started to run just fine and it ran for 10 or so minutes. Then his connecting rod flew off so he had to shut it of and then he put it all back together and then oil started to leak out of the air cleaner. So we took it of and then oil came pouring out everywhere. Then we had to quit for the day but we seems to think that he didn't put a valve on right or it was off and it leaks when it pumps in. I suppose it doesn't help that he dropped his engine on the floor. I think that if he would have payed more attention to the instructions he would of learned how to do it the right way so that it runs. A-lot of people seem to be having trouble in that class and people like me are done and we go and help others because they didn't pay attention and they aren't using the intelligence that they have.

Rain???

It rained here the other day and now our snow was getting worse as the days went on. But now the snow has started to fall every now and them and the trails are really nice now I wouldn't want to ride in the ditch much because you might hit a fence. But just riding on the trails I think you could go all kinda places I think that you could ride all day. The weather is getting a little warmer to, but I don't want it to get too warm 20 is warm enough otherwise the snow will start to melt.

Work Ethic

What is it what does it mean is what I was asked in class one day and I sat there and froze trying to think of an answer the truth is that I never really thought of an answer I always thought that is was just a fancy way of saying that you passion your job. I think that it means that you really like what you are doing and you don't want to do anything different you wouldn't change a thing you or want another job in the world you love the people and the environment that your surroundings have been at your comfort level and it is a place that your never really want to leave. You finally realize that this job is your calling and it is what you are meant to be doing with the rest of your life. This is what I think work ethic means.

Snow

There is another snow storm that is supposed to be coming and I want to get a good amount of snow I am very tired of waiting and waiting to ride snowmobile. I haven't gotten them out due to the weather forecasts. They haven't said a chance of snow in a week. I really hope we get more snow we have a really good base but we need more just to set up so that you aren't digging into the ground that can wreak things really quick. When it snows I get to ride with my dad and plow snow sometimes I even get to plow snow. (of course that is on a tractor with a bucket) I get really excited when I see that it is snowing I never want it to stop the way it falls so nice and calm and white I just love when you look up you can see more white and it looks like it is coming out of no where and then you realize that if you stick your tongue out you melt any snowflake that you get on it. I warn you do not stick your tongue to a pole in this cold weather odds are is that it will stick and it is painful to get off. I did that once and we had to pour hot water on it so don't stick your tongue to a pole please.

Courage

I think that courage really means doing something that other people won't do until someone sets an example on how to do that one ting. Like when we played dodge ball for the first time we were afraid that we were going to hurt each other but then once the teacher taught us the correct way to do it I started to try it and then all of the kids joined in because they found that it was fun and they got courage to go out and do it. It doesn't hurt said one kid. From that point on everyone in the class wanted to play dodge ball everyday even though we switched from music to PE everyday. Most of the Friday's in winter we played dodge ball because the teacher didn't know what to play so we would have a vote on what we would want to play big base or dodge ball and most of the hands went up for dodge ball. I think that courage is kind of like leadership you have to do something even if you don't like it and set an example for others so that they will get the courage to follow in your footsteps and take the first leap and not be scared.

Snowmobile Trip

We have set a date for our first snowmobile trip of the year we have set it during Christmas break. We are unloading our sleds and making sure they run properly and making adjustments to make sure that all of the gas mixtures work. We are trying not to blow them up they cost alot of money to get them fix even though we do all of the mechanical work at our shop we still have to order the parts sometimes and the shipping costs more then the parts sometimes. We are going out to the Snowies we are planning since we payed for the hotel costs we will be out there for 3 days. Then from there we are going to Glenville to celebrate our Christmas with our Dad's family, and then we will go home home and pend the rest with our family on our Mom's side. Then the rest of the weekend I will use my new presents and then go back to school.
