   Yes I do agree. Its happening right now. the Secretary of the U.S can write himself a check right mow for 700 million dollars because the economy is screwed up and he has a lot of power concerning money.

Everybody hates him for having so much power, and there are many adversities for him to. he hasn't written the check yet so I figure with all that power, he must have integrity. 

     Me, I have a lot of adversities in my life. And every single one of them tests my endurance and my will. I think all adversities do the same to every one.  

what makes you laugh

    Yes I have laughed today. Surprising as it may seem, I laughed at a bee. Why?Because it flew up to me and was practically my personal cameraman. If I moved he moved you know. I don't know why I laughed because usually I tend to swat down and kill them. Weird. I usually laugh at violent things like lord of the rings battle scenes in the book because when you read it you can imagine it your way and it seems funnier to me. I hate it when people make nasty jokes about girls or guys or bodily functions like Irving.I call that perverted humor.I hate it. Its not funny at all.

How can i I be come a successful IDEA student?

In order to become a successful IDEA student I must, follow all instructions given by staff and teachers, because if I'm on the teachers good side,I gain favor with them. Not that I get to do whatever I want its just that I have a little more freedom. Thats cool.

What have I learned at my last week of Idea Mission?

     Last week at Idea Mission I learned, how to solve one and two step mathematical equations. My last year teacher, Mr. Pilon taught us how to solve them but after three months without school work, your academic skills start to get rusty.As Mr. Franklin explained the solving process , the skills I learned from the previous year began to return. One and two step equations are fun. Now we're learning how to ratio and proportion.

How is Idea Mission different?

This school is quite a different experience for me. I mean kindergartners in  the same building with  sixth graders seventh graders and eighth graders? That is a little strange for me. at my old school the eighth graders would have gone to the kindergartners section of the school and harass them. That should show you how bad things were at my old school.I'm sort of glad I came here.

How can I become an IB learner?

                     I can become a IB learner by using my natural traits. Like me I am a thinker. When a problem arises in one of my Lego sets,I try to look for any matching places on the set and try to use that as an example to correct the problem.I am also a inquirer, am principled, reflective upon myself, and a balanced individual. However, I'm not very open minded. I tend to look slightly down on other religions such as Muslims. The only reason I do is because they kill innocent people "in the name of God". The people themselves are fine its just their beliefs I don't like. Recently, I've been trying to be more caring about other people's cultures and beliefs.Im not much of a risk taker either. when a group project comes up and we have to present a poster board or something Im the one who holds it up. But, if nobody else in the group wants to get their hands dirty, I will  present our work. If i have no choice, I will take the spotlight although i try to avoid it. All my teachers say I have good presentation skills. That is one spotlight I don't mind.
