Has been two goods week at school. Last week was a mini spirit week at school. It was a "sport week" to support all the winter sports at school (wrestling, basketball, soccer). We gave cookies to the coaches and encouraged people to go to the games. I went to the varsity boys basketball game Thursday. To bad Shadow Ridge lost.
I spent most of the weekend home, doing homework and other stuff I needed to have done before I leave to Hawaii!! :D 2 days left!!!
Today at school we had an assembly (when the entire school meet in the gym) to listen to a presentation about Rachel's Challenge. It's a program that exist since 10 years ago in the US (and it's spreading to the rest of the world) to challenge people to be kind to each other and try to get chain reaction of kindness. It's started with a girl who got shot in a shooting in a High school in Colorado 1999. Her family found her diary where she had wrote about her goals and dreams to have an impact on the world some day and start a chain reaction of kindness. One of her quotes: " you never know how far a little kindness can go". Her dreams have become true, her story has changed a lot of people's lives and saved kids from taking thier lives. Her challenges are: See the positive in people, Don't judge people before you give them at least 3 chances, Treat people like you want them to treat you, tell people what they really mean to you as you never know what's gonna happen and spread kindness and positive attitude around you. Think about that!
