Tell me about your Homecoming weekend! If you didn't participate in the Homecoming festivities, what did you do? Share pics!

Over the weekend, I hung out with friends at Buffalo Wild Wings, went to the BV football game, watched The Royals clinch their first playoff birth since 1985, watched Mizzou upset South Carolina by 1 point and watched the NFL games on Sunday. I was particularly excited about The Royals clinching a playoff spot because they have not been in the playoffs since I have been alive. I am a huge royals fan so it is very exciting that they are in the playoffs.

How was your weekend? Did you do anything exciting? Share photos!

My weekend was okay, I watched a lot of football and I hung out with my friends. Overall it was a pretty good weekend, I didn't really accomplish much though. My favorite team, Mizzou lost which I wasn't too happy about but it's alright. The Chiefs won which was cool considering they have lost the past two weeks, so that was good. All in all it was a good weekend.

Now that you are several weeks in to this class and have coded one (super small) website, what do you think? What are your thoughts on web design? Is it what you thought it would be? Is it better? Worse? What's your favorite part? What's your least favorite part? Explain.

I think it is cool that we are learning how to code websites. Web design has been a fun class for the most part, and I am happy that I chose to take it. So far, this class has been exactly what I though it was going to be. My favorite part about his class is creating websites from scratch, my least favorite part is doing lots of Codecademy.

What is the importance of deadlines? How do high school deadlines reflect or simulate "real world" experience? Give an example of when you met or or didn't meet a deadline that was important.

Deadlines are important because it teaches you how to be responsible for yourself. Deadlines in high school reflect the deadlines that you have in the "real world". In the business field, you must have work done when it needs to be done. One time, I had a very long paper due that I had been working on for over 3 quarters of the school year. The deadline was not flexible and the paper had to be turned in on that day, no exceptions. I worked hard and got the paper turned in, in addition to getting the paper turned in, I received a good grade on it.

Reflect on this quote. Give an example of a time in your life that this might have been the case.

An example of a time in my life when this quote is relevant was when I had an ELA test but I totally forgot to prepare for it so I went in to class and took it without having been prepared. I did not get an ideal grade and that is because I failed to prepare.

What did you do this weekend? Share pictures if you have them!

This weekend I watched a lot of football, college and pro. my favorite team, Mizzou won, which was good. They are having a great season thus far. The Chiefs ended up blowing there game when they had a chance to tie it up and go to overtime. I was a little disappointed with that. Aside from watching football I also played a lot of Madden 15 which was fun. Overall it was a pretty laid back weekend.

Below is one of my favorite quotes that I found on Pinterest. Think read and think about what this says and then blog about it. What does this quote mean to you? Elaborate! Feel free to give an example of tell a story.

This quote is saying that you should never be bored since there is so many things you have never seen or done. There is always something to do no matter where you are. To me this quote means that since there is so much to do on our planet, you should never feel bored, you should never feel like there is nothing to do since there is so much you haven't done or seen in your life. Just the fact that you are alive and well is amazing.

What did you do this weekend? Share pictures if you have them!

Over the weekend I didn't do anything exciting. I just sat back, and watched a lot of football. Other than watching football I hung out with some friends. I enjoyed not really doing much and it was a much needed break after a long school week. The worst part about the weekend for me was seeing my fantasy football team do terrible but hopefully they do better next week.

Pretend you are in your 70's or 80's. Complain about kids these days.

Kids these days are too lazy and they don't have the work ethic that kids in my generation had. We had to work for everything that was given to us and now kids barely even have to do chores around the house. Another thing is that parents lack the ability to discipline their children when they mess up. My mom and dad ran a tight ship but because of that I had the right work ethic and respect that I needed to survive in this world.

Tell me all about your Labor Day weekend. What did you do? Include photos!

Over Labor Day weekend I went to the Mizzou football game in Columbia, MO and I also went to my friends lake house. I went to the football game on Saturday and the Lake on Sunday and Monday. My cousin goes to college at Mizzou so we also visited her and checked out her dorm as well as the campus. At the lake I tubed, jet skied, and swam with my friends. Overall it was a very fun weekend.
