Semester reflection



       This semester I have learned multiple things. The first of those is that you have to get a lot of sleep every night. You feel so much better in the morning so you can get to school on time. It also helps you to pay attention in class more and remember assignments which leads to better grades.

       The second thing that I learned is that you have to check the calendar every night even when you are 99% sure that there is nothing you don't know about assignments. That brought my grade down a ton especially in Spanish. I lost many points in classes and that will not be happening during the second semester.

     The most important thing that I have learned in the first semester is that time management is very important. Teachers in high school do not need to monitor everything you do to make sure you are on task. If you do not manage your time in class then you have more homework and you have no one to blame but yourself. Those are the most important things that I have learned.

  1. Great post Tucker! I agree with your second paragraph because sometimes I wouldn't check even after I finished my homework and I would miss something.

March Madness

March Madness is my favorite part of the basketball season and is probably my favorite way that any sports season is ended. March Madness is the NCAA tournament that has 64 teams and 6 different rounds. This tournament is always very fun to watch and it is fun to pick the brackets for who you think is going to win. This is something I have been doing every year for a while. I am usually pretty good at this but this has been my worst year in a while. This years tournament has had more upsets than I have ever seen. The most shocking of which made history when the 16 seeded UMBC beat Virginia the overall 1 seed.  This also happened to be who I had picked to win the tournament and my bracket was already done for before the second round. Then there is also Loyola Chicago who has made it into the final 4 tied for the highest seed to make it there. This was overall no ones year for picking a bracket.

My Choice- Grief

Grief is something everyone in the reservation has dealt with at least twice before the time they can drive. They grieve when they have lost another member of their family. They lose most members of their family due to alcohol. The people are so used to dealing with grief that it seems to show way differently with them than it does with people not as accustomed to death. To these people grief is something else,  “Grief is when you feel so helpless and stupid that you think nothing will ever be right again, and your macaroni and cheese tastes like sawdust, and you can't even jerk off because it seems like too much trouble.”-Sherman Alexie, Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian.  Arnold feels that he has to experience so much grief in his life and it makes him feel completely helpless.  Nothing feels the same to him when he is grieving and it is something he has to deal with multiple times during the book. Grief is a problem Alexie shows has much precedenc...
