Topic Six: Attendance and Timeliness

Task 2:

Alarm starts at 8:45
Out of bed by 9:00
Eat breakfast done by 9:15
Brush teeth and get dressed done by 9:20 maybe 9:25 on a slow day
Leave and go to school there by 9:40-9:45 depending on traffic never too bad though

Task 3:

1: There is really only one way I could incorporate time management into my life. That would be while im at home just sitting around watching movies/playing video games I could be doing more valuable stuff with my time like studying or working around the house. But in the mornings to get to school I am fine. I usually wake up an hour before school which gives me plenty of time to fully wake up and find a ride to school. I dont really care what I wear to school so that saves alot of time.

2: If i became overwhelmed with obligations I would try to set another time for one of them so that I can meet all the obligations but if i cant like school then i will cancel one of the recreational obligations i have. I would never purposefully set up too many obligations in a day where i couldnt freely cancel one or not be able to meet all of them.

Topic 9: Attitudes

Topic 9: Attitudes

Task 2:

Paragraph 1:

I usually react in a respectable manner or with a good attitude. I rarely have a bad attitude toward something. If I was to start getting a negative attitude, I just ignore it so that it doesn't become a hindrence.

Paragraph 2:

I haven't started my service learning or have a job right now so i can't comment on what I should be improving since I have no idea as of this moment.

Paragraph 3:

Others that have bad or negative attitudes usually make me mad. I tend to ignore them. I see how they end up not being liked by alot of people and that they have a bad outlook at life. That is what keeps me from haveing a negative attitude in anything. Now if someone disrespects me then its a different story. That particular person will not ever see a good side of me until they show me respect again then im alright with them.
