How do you express your gratitude?

In this blog I will discuss how I express my gratitude? I express my gratitude to God for giving me another chance at life. I could have died being shot in the head. So I express my gratitude by praying every day, and being thankful for the things I do have, such as an apartment, a car, a job, food on the table, being able to write and think and make music and my sister and Jetpack and all my readers and friends and family. Express gratitude for what you have, takes you out of the negative talk by discussing things you wish you had. So just being grateful goes a long way and being a good person also is like whipped cream on the top of a piece of pie. Thank you for reading.

What are you most worried about for the future?

There are all kinds of things to be worried about for the future, such as World War 3. This really has me worried, with the pact between the Russian leader Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong UN. There is a real possibility we will be going to war in the future. With the war in Ukraine and Russia still fighting, if Ukraine loses, we will possibly go to war with Russia and North Korea will help Russia and England, France, Canada, and other nations will help the US. Welcome to world war lll.

We have been giving Ukraine weapons to defeat the Russians so they can possibly defeat Russia, let’s just hope that they defeat Russia, so we don’t have to go to war. This is my big fear, World war lll. Thank you for reading.

What makes a teacher great?

In this blog, I will discuss what makes a teacher great? There are a lot of elements that make a teacher great. I will examine a chunk.

First they have to want to teach. Without this, they will be a horrible teacher. They have to love to teach and love teaching students. They have to be well spoken and have confidence that they can get the job done. They have to explain subject matter well, such as mathematics well. They have to have empathy and realize that every student is different and also learns differently. So if necessary they may have to change the way they are teaching the class to accommodate some students. The teacher must be kind but firm, not allowing students to take advantage of them. The teacher has to conduct him/herself as to not take advantage of the students, especially sexually and not have sex with the students. They need to realize right from wrong and have good morals and be ethical.

Also they need to have diversity and realize they are going to be teaching students from different cultures so realizing that students come from different backgrounds is important. Another important thing is to have a sense of humor and laugh when things are funny and just go with the way some things go down. Thank you for reading.

Have you ever had surgery? What for?

Yes, I was shot in the head,so they had to operate on my head to revive me. They had to contain the blood that was going to my brain. Even though, I had been shot in the head with a gun. The heart keeps pumping blood and if I didn’t get medical treatment fast that would have killed me. So the neurosurgeon had to remove the left side of my skull so the brain could swell up and breathe because the skull is confining. It would just squish the brain until I am no more.

Then, about 4 months later they put in a piece of acrylic plastic called a chronostomy, to replace the piece of skull they took out of the left side of my skull. So that was the second surgery.

Then I had surgery on my left eye to fix the double vision I have. I was in high school when I had that surgery. Still have double vision, but not as bad.

Final thoughts, I had surgery for the initial injury of being shot in the head. Another surgery to replace the piece of skull they took out. They put in an acrylic plastic piece called a chronostomy. Then, the eye doctors did a surgery on my left eye to repair double vision. It worked. I only see double vision when I am tired. My glasses do a good job at repairing the double vision too. Thank you for reading.

What are your daily habits?

In this blog, I will go over my daily habits. In the day of peoples’ lives everyone has daily habits. Whether, they are good or bad everyone has vices.

When I get up in the morning, I eat an apple and yogurt. Then, I pick up my sister and we get something to eat, either Subway, Burger King, or we go to the store, such as Sprouts. Then, we do Doordash for 3 or 4 hours. Then, I drop her off at her apartment. Then, I eat a salad and drum quietly and sing even more quietly. Then I read and say the rosary to God. Then, I take a shower and I go to bed to start the cycle again. Thank you for reading.

Are there things you try to practice daily to live a more sustainable lifestyle?

Yes, i try to reuse plastic bags from the grocery store for different things like putting other items in them such as, clothes so they don’t end up in a land fill. Or, I will save them and take them back to the store I received them from.

I only run the air conditioner when it is sweltering in my apartment.  I always have an overhead fan on so I am not very hot in my apartment. I try to conserve electricity by shutting off lights I am not using.

I drive for Doordash once a day and only for about 4 hours a day. I turn off the car when I am delivering something because keeping it running destroys the environment.

In conclusion I reuse grocery plastic bags so they don’t end up in the land fill. I conserve electricity by shutting lights I don’t use. Also running the air conditioner when it is very hot in the apartment. Lastly, I do Doordash for about 4 hours a day and I turn off the car when I deliver items, to save the environment. Thank you for reading.
