“Right is right, even if everyone is against it; wrong is wrong even if everyone is for it.”

William Penn

       I believe that this quote implies that even if nobody follows you still do whats right. Eventually everything that someone does wrong catches up to them. Always do what's right no matter the circumstances and never do what's wrong even if everyone around you feels as if it's right. Always be your own person make up your own mine and not let others influence you to do whats wrong. If you dont want to do whats right because everyone is doing what's wrong or you want to do whats wrong bc everyone says its right it will backfire on you. Always be a leader not a follower. An example of doing wrong when everyone is against it is wearing your school uniform. Nobody likes school uniform but but you must be obedient and wear it cause it's what's right. Now an example for wrong when everyone think its right is say you go to a party. All your peers are smoking,drinking,drugs,etc. You do what's right and not follow. There's other ways to have fun by not doing wrong. Even though it might seem right at the time you know it's wrong otherwise so you don't do it. Be a leader not a follower. Always be a CTR person.

HOMECOMING

        Homecoming is when  is an annual tradition in the United States. People, towns, high schools, and colleges come together, usually in late September or early October, to welcome back alumni and former residents. They also take the chance to celebrate the school's existence.The 1911 Kansas vs. Missouri football game. The tradition of Homecoming has its origin in alumni football games held at colleges and universities since the 19th century. We celebrate homecoming in school because first, those who already graduated can reunite with old friends but, others in the school do it to show school spirit. Another reason is to show you support tof whatever athletic teams or clubs are going on around the time it will happen. Activities around the time can be spirit week. In spirit week you obviously show your school spirit based on whatever it is they assign you to wear that day. Ex: movie character, super hero, pink, class colors, crazy hair, etc. A tradition taken place in homecoming is King and Queen as well, as Prince and Princess. King and Queen are most likely to be 12th graders. Students have time like a couple of weeks before to nominate and the winners get chose and presented at homecoming dance. Pep rallies are also a great way they introduce homecoming games.   The homecoming game is called “Homecoming Game” because it's the game taking places right before homecoming. Depending on the school the dress code is arranged. It is most likely to be formal wear. EX: pretty formal  dress for the girls not inappropriate (knee length)  and nice slacks and shirt for the boys. Another traditional thing is the boy gives his date a flower.

         

     I think homecoming is a great idea. I think this because you get to have a fun night with friends. Another reason is because you show school spirit and it motivates your peers as well, as yourself. Also it's a fun night where you won't get into trouble and it won't be a trashy night out with friends, but it's still be fun.

"A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life"

Coach K
Mike Krzyzewski

I believe this quote means that making a good name of you self is at the top of every other important thing you need to do. Making a good name of your self will help you a lot. Doing this can open up lots of many opportunities. If you make a bad name of your self it will close many opportunities you had before. It will do so because no one wants to relate have a person with a bad name because then they will look bad to. In order to get this good name you have to always think before you act. You have to be a CTR person and stay committed no matter what. Being a committed CTR person will make a good name for you. By having a good name lots of people will like you and want you around lots because everyone likes having good company. If you make a bad name out of yourself people will most likely think of you as a bad person even if that got you the bad name reputation was a one time thing. They will think of you as bad even if you are not.  Its so easy to make a bad name out of yourself, just one little mistake can ruin it. So always think before you act & regret it.

“A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches.”

Proverbs 22:1

I believe this quote is if you have to always make sure to make a good name out of yourself. I believe this because when you choose the right people see you as a good person. When you choose the wrong, that's when people start seeing you as a bad one. Follow the CTR code and you will always be viewed as the great person you are. Being good and choosing the right will never make you look bad and by never looking bad you are making a good name out of your self. Choosing the wrong is always going to make you look bad and you will be doing bad to your reputation. Reputations are important because they help determine whether if you’re a  good person or a bad one. Ex: if you have made a bad name of yourself and you are trying to get a job, and their is another person with a good reputation trying to get a job. They will most likely give it to the person with the good reputation than the one with the bad one.

"If your so-called friends urge you to do anythings you know to be wrong, you be the one to make a stand for right, even if you stand alone, Have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow"

Thomas S. Monson

I believe that this quote means to do you even if you end up alone. Your true friends are the ones to be there for you whether you choose to do something or not.You shouldn't let anyone influence you in a negative way, because true friends help you choose the right not lead you in a path to choose the wrong. You should always stand up for what you believe because by you doing so, you are being a great leader. Don't be a follower be a leader. You should never let anyone tell you or feel forced to do something because of them. If a class mate wants to steal something from another classmate you dont follow because that's not choosing the right. You either be a good friend and tell them to not do that or you tell an adult. Because that one thing they want to take can mean so much to the other person. You always need to make sure to thing before you act. Never let anyone tell you to do something, because you are your own person and you are responsible for what you do.

" A CTR champion is a person who makes a great human out of himself." 

Noemi Trigueros

I think this quote that Noemi wrote means that every one is a champion. I believe this because win or loose if you are a CTR person you are always a winner. Why? Because you always choose the right. Another reason why i think this is because when you choose the right you get good back to you meaning you are a winner/ you are wining  because you always get good back.  It is always important to choose the right because you are making a better person of yourself. If your doing this you are winning meaning you are a champion. Now, if you choose the wrong you are not winning making you a looser.

"Goal setting is goal getting.Set and get."

Mark Victor Hansen

I believe this quote implies that if you want something you must set a goal for it or how your going to get what you want. I also think that this means that you have to think about how you will be getting what you want. By setting some goal of something that you want you are most likely to get it than someone who just has the idea of getting it. I believe this because when you just think about something and dont set a goal for it you wont get it because your not making up time for it. Now if you think about it and you get an idea on it and you take time to set it you will get it because now you have thought of how to get it. Planning and setting a goal for something that you want is very important no matter what it is that you are trying to get. An example is you want to get straight A's. If you just think "oh yeah straight A's is what i want" you wont really get it because you probably will lack of with your work. Now on the other hand if you think it then plan out a scheduled and set your goal you will become a straight A's student because you have a plan and you're trying.

Columbus day

Columbus day is on Monday October 10. This day became an important day that countries in America celebrate Christopher Columbus. On this day he arrived to America. Since then October 10 has been known as Columbus Day. another way it is known is as “Dia De La Raza” and this day is celebrated on October 12. In 1906 in Colorado was when it first became a holiday. Later becoming a federal holiday in the United States in 1937. NYC and the US celebrated the 300th anniversary of his landing in the New World in 1792.   The holiday had been unofficially celebrated since the 18th century but became official in the early 20th century.

Christopher Columbus played an important role in US history therefore i think it's okay to take a day of and celebrate him.

 "When obedience becomes your goal, it is no longer an irritation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block." 

James E. Faust

I believe this means that when you start doing something often you dont see it as a struggle you see it as a life style. When you dont constantly think of doing something you should be doing no matter what it comes natural but if you are contently thinking of doing it, it begins to irritate you and frustrate you.  If you choose to be obedient you are choosing the right. When you choose the right you are doing good. Now, if you choose the wrong you are doing bad, not good and that is not being obedient. By being obedient you are making a better person yourself, not of others. If you show good character traits, one being obedient you are making a good person out of you. By being obedient you can also help change someone else. An example of not being obedient is not listening. If you listen you are obedient and if you dont then your not. Living a life style where you choose to be obedient and it just comes naturally is not so hard. But if you have to consistently be reminded than it can be irritating.
