“Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it.” -William Penn A similar quote to this one has previously been given. Basically it is telling us that if we choose the right, it is always going to be right no matter what. Choosing the right will have positive outcomes for us and those around us. On the other hand if we choose the wrong negative outcomes will occur for us. Choosing to do the right thing should always be a number one choice, no matter what the circumstances around you are. If no one is choosing to do the right, you should set an example and lead the way by doing something good. This could be sticking up for someone who is in trouble. If everyone is doing something bad it does not mean you should jump in and join them as well. Wrong is wrong no matter what is going on around you or the people who surround you. The people around you should not be an influence (unless good) or should they be deciding your decisi

We cant be vague, we have to have a clear understanding of what we really want most in life. By writing it down we will constantly be reminded of what our goal in life is. The more and more we see our goal the closer we get to achieving it and this is w

Schools often host homecoming games as it is the final game of a football team and it is when they come "home", this is where the name is derived from. School spirit highly rises during homecoming. There has been multiple examples in which parades and floats are design by colleges to promote homecoming and usually the whole town participate and there is thousands of students there as well. Proper etiquette for homecoming involves wearing a suit and tie and for girls wearing a cocktail dress. Schools may specify the dress code but if not, the proper attire is usually semi-formal.

"A good game is rather to be chosen than great riches" What this quote means is that we need to keep a good name for ourselves. If we are selves taint our name then it will have a negative impact on our life. You see our name follows us for the rest of our life. Anything we do, weather positive or negative, will always be traced back to our name. So if you do something bad, other people will assume your bad just by hearing your name. Same way if you are a good person, other people will read your name and automatically think of a nice respectful person. colleges and job often do this when considering an applicant, they will look at your file and just be looking at your name and what you have done will, they will decide weather they want you or not. They do not even have to meet up with you in person or see a picture of you. Having riches is great but if you have a bad name then no one will respect you. No one will care at all about your riches all because you choose to do

Columbus Day Columbus day is celebrated on October 10. We celebrate this holiday because he was the "first"person to "discover" the Americas, or New World as it was known as at that time.

Columbus was able to sail to America using celestial navigation, he and his crew sailed in three ships, the most notable one being the Santa Maria. He was a Spanish explorer and as he sail west he landed in America in the year 1492.  When he landed he believed it was India and called the native Americans Indians, this why in today time we sometimes refer Native Americans as Indians.
