Success!!

What does the word successful mean to you? In twenty years I would like to be doing something successful with my life. Being successful in life is one of my goals. Some of the things I could be doing are volunteering, donating things that I don’t need, and lending an ear to hear what other people have to say. Being successful to me is not having a lot of money; successful to me is helping others when they need it.

All I need to be successful in my life is time to be there for others, not only in my community but all over. I want to help people by traveling and giving to charity. However, I want to be successful at any job I’m at, so I have some money. Having money and a job can help me be successful in the life I want to live. Helping others makes me feel successful in my heart, because I know that is what I want to do.

Everybody is afraid of something! What are you afraid of?  The thing people are scared of range from Barney to getting stuck upside down on a roller coaster.  Brant Harnden is scared of clowns and Mrs. Milford is scared of teaching 6^th graders.  Mattie Kinsler is scared of Abby Fairchild and Abby Fairchild is scared of a roller coaster getting stuck upside down.  Abby Wells is scared of scary people. Gage Pickering, William Milford, Jaden Capps, and Clay Boor are scared of spiders.  Geoff, the Librarian, is scared of not living a fulfilled life, not completing his bucket list and fire. The first grade teacher, Mr. Spexarth, is very scared of Gage Pickering’s muscles.

I Heart My Valentine!

This week love is in the air! Friday, February 14, is Valentine’s Day.  Out of the thirty-three people that were surveyed, only nine of them are planning on sending a valentine to someone! We asked the twenty-four students that weren’t planning on spreading the love why they didn’t send out a card. A few of the younger kids said that they didn’t want to send anyone a valentine. Clay Boor said that he would give one to Kyle Livingston as a joke. Many of the middle school students paid a dollar to send their crush or friend a sucker. The leadership team has been selling suckers all week, and so far it’s been a success! This Valentine’s Day is sure to be sweet!

Gold medals aren't really made of gold. They're made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts.
