How to be a Successful Student

Teachers are always telling students to be successful in what they do. One teacher that is always telling his students that is Mr. V. Here are many different ways to be a successful student.

1. Don't talk when a teacher/ substitute is giving instruction of the assignments that are giving. You'll most likely get sent out of the room if you talk.


2. When returning or if already asked to stop talking, try and keep your mouth shut and try not to move.

3. Also when returning, try and not move that much because the teacher will keep on eye on you more.

4. If the teacher asks you again to leave to the "Principal," don't make "faces" or don't give "attitude."

5. Last, just follow the directions as best as possible.

Thinking about college?

It's the end of the year, and college is right around the corner, right? Okay, maybe it's a long four-year corner, but you've got to start thinking about how you're going to pay for it sooner or later. Might as well be sooner.

Check out my article on Pell Grants  called "Your Pal the Pell Grant" at collegepiggybank.org to start learning about the Pell Grant! Read it, and you'd better like it, too. Seriously: Click the Facebook "Like" button at the top of the article.

I got a Pell Grant to help me through my teaching credential--it's a sweet deal to start off your financial aid. If you thought you had to start off your college career crazy in debt, think again.

Summer is almost near.

The school year is almost over for us and that is just great. No more teachers telling us what to do for awhile and staying up all day and night. I am glad that where going the high school soon and I am really not going to miss this school. I don't exactly know what I am going to do when it is summer but I really don't care. I am just going to enjoy it for as long as it last before we go to school again. So if anyone wants comment on what there going to do just comment on this post.

Stage 7- Amgen Tour de California

This past Saturday I went to go see Stage 7 of the Tour of California. The Tour of California is an 8 day stage race starting in Northern California making its way down hundreds of miles to Southern California. Stage 7 started in Claremont and made its way up to the treachorous Mt. Baldy Ski Lifts. At the start of the stage, there were 10,000 people jam packed in Claremont to watch the start. The riders then made their way up Mt. Baldy Road to the Mt. Baldy Village. When they reached the village, they made left onto Glendora Ridge Road cutting across into the East Fork and down into Azusa. As they headed down the decent, they made a left onto the famous Sierra Madre Blvd. After that long hard stretch, they made another left onto Glendora Mountain Road (GMR) and started the treterous climb of 23 miles averaging 10 % gradients up to the ski lifts. After GMR, they cut across the opposite way they came down on Glendora Ridge Road and headed up even higher to Mt. Baldy. The last 4 miles of the climb/ race was the switchbacks which averaged 18 % gradients. As they started the ascent of the switchbacks, a break away of 2 riders, which contained the top 2 best placed riders in the race, got away to the finish for the win. Both of the riders were also on the same team Radioshack. That day/ stage will go into the history books and will never be forgotten.

Pumas Are The New Champions of Mexico!!!!

The Pumas are now Champions for el Clausura 2011. They beat Monarcas Morelia in a very intense game. The game started and there was two penalties in the first half of the game. I think both penalties where not even penalties. About 10 minutes to the end of the game Javier Cortes takes on five guys and makes the winning gol for the Pumas. With this Pumas became Champions again and now have seven championships.
