Satire

The condition of not being able to pronounce the letter R is called… “rhotacism.” the irony of that as for Q-tips, which are bought primarily to clean inside ears, are sold in boxes that expressly warn; Do not insert inside the ear canal. Also the school food, when they make you get your fruit or packets or veggies or fruit even when you don't want it you Have to get it or they will get mad at you and tell you to get it, and once you do it goes back to the basket or in the trash, as well for the school they want you to eat healthily and be healthy but... the orange juice has so much sugar, as well for the muffins and more unhealthy things. also how the school makes so much money by selling junk food in the food carts and getting money from government they still can't fix up some rooms, like in my 4th period the top of the ceiling a small portion is missing, and also the chairs, anyways its a school and it should be Fit for students. Oh and also sad how seniors cant go out of campus no more. as well of checking ids in the gates, I know it a safety precaution. but a really bad person with bad motives can easily jump a fence or just get a similar id that looks like ours,

How I Learn

How i learn, i try to keep my backpack and whats in my backpack organized, so i know where to put stuff or where should my things be. As well as my room, i keep it clean first so once i get to study my work space would be clear and i get comfortable. I don't real organize my time, but i should, because its important to keep my time management, so i can get everything done in time. How i learn in school, is first not to get distracted and also to ask questions when i am lost, and if i fall behind in note taking i try to ask someone around me to help me or let me take down the note i missed. Remembering new information can be hard sometimes, that's why the best thing to try and remember is to write it down somewhere or type it in your phone so you know where it is and to help you remember.

A Modest Proposal

The "Modest Proposal" mentions the problems in Ireland about overpopulation and how there are many poor people as well as children not getting the treatment they need from parents which they can not provide. Also, the author describes and tells this article in a very horrible way but also to bring to attention to the reader. The writer has a point though because he uses facts and basically in Ireland some people act inhuman by killing high number newborn babies or killing children and the writer suggests that might as well eat children for food since also the parents cannot provide. Not sure if that's truly what he suggests or using sarcasm for people reading to spark their minds that there should be a solution to this problem. also mentions how if a poor person raises that child then the chances will be equal to either the child will be a robber or look for a job.

About Montaigne

Montaigne was another philosopher, but a little more different and also he went further by describing how rare wisdom really is. Montaigne did not really like to read books and also thought how somethings in school were not really necessary or just silly. As in other words, we have studied other peoples books way before we study our own minds as he puts it. basically, there is no wrong way to live your life, as long as you strive for wisdom and never far from folly.
We Are Richer Than We Think, Each One Of Us.

The Right To Your Opinion

The right to your opinion is to say what you think about something or someone, In your opinion what you actually truly feel about something or someone. But also to put some limits, like trying to listen to other peoples thoughts and opinions and to not be ignorant about it. Try to or Be open-minded about other ideas/opinions. Use titled to your opinion only when you strongly feel about it and just not being ignorant or selfish about it. See others peoples views.https://youtu.be/Px4fmtMgYG4

SOCRATIC METHOD

In my opinion, using the Socratic method would be great! Its based on asking and answering questions to make you think about more about the problem. Also, it needs to require to think negatively because without it the method would not exist and I see why, because if you are thinking positively then you would not try to say the truth because you would not want to hurt their feelings which in the Socratic Method you have to be in search of the truth which means put all feelings aside and say what it is. Nowadays you hear or listen to people argue and they make it seem like a competition and not truly asking or answering questions which means they truly don't look forward for an agreement, in other words, it is just pointless. Arguments are not a competition it is in search of the truth. If people were to use this method it would be great it will make them come to an understanding.

Santa Maria High School (Assembly)

   When I attended the assembly there were few seats left. Once I found a seat and all the students found a place to sit then the principle started to get the students attention and basically started to talk about how they want us all to do good in school and in life decisions. Also going through some of the rules that most seniors should know about. The only thing that I did not know about is that we can wear whichever hat we want but as long it's not gang-related. Other than that there was no other thing that came to my attention, I asked myself why didn't they just do it for freshmen. They are the new students of this school. Anyways I feel like better things should be brought up in assemblies, for an example how some classes are packed with at least 30 students and can be difficult for teachers to actually teach a large group. Many students have different ways of learning. Also about how the school food just goes to waste, most of the people throw there fruits or veggies. That food can actually feed the homeless or something else helping others than rather getting put in the trash for no cause. As well mention of what we are capable to do, like stand up and try to make a change in this world because many things as racism and gun violence still occur and we as students should be more aware about that and know we can protest and just put it out there. But we can't really change things if we can't get everyone to participate and stand up for it. Any whos I feel like schools should be more involved in things that are going on in the world as well.
