Last post :(

Our time spent in middle school was amusing and it was unquestionably worth the long run but now the end has arrived. We must collect our belongings and progress on to high school. These past three years of our life was guidance and preparation. It will all show in high school. Some of us don’t want to shift to high school however it is inevitable. We have had excellent times and dreadful times here in middle school. But altogether it was a thrilling ride. Thanks to all our teachers who have supported and encouraged us till the end, we are over and done with ms and are graduating tomorrow.

Is courage something you have to be born with or can you develop it?


Is courage something you have to be born with or can you develop it?
 Courage isn't something you are born with, or without. It is something you have to develop. Courage doesn't mean the missing of fear. You can develop courage by learning and practicing the actions that you want to be able to do during an emergency. Having a few small actions to show/do gives you something to concentrate on instead a threat, or your own fear. If there are specific actions you can concentrate on, think about them, then do them.

Field Trip to the School of Blind

Last Friday we went to a field trip to Pattaya. We were divided in to three groups, school for blind (which i went to) where you have to play with the blind children, day care center where you take care of little kids, and farm work where you paint playground equipment and do some farm work. So before i went to the school for the blind i was kind of scared of blind people, i felt uncomfortable near them because my dad's cousin was blind. When i reached there i was confused. The kids there looked like they knew exactly where they were going. they did not have the stick that the homeless blind people on the road use. The only this was that they had to feel every thing that they touch. After we played a small game with them in the room we had to help a kid go down the stairs. I found this small kid and helped him down the stairs. Then when we reached the ground floor the little boy just ran away from me. I was scared because i did not know where this little boy was going.  I watched him go. He went all the way across the hall way and ran into the toilet. That was quite scary. Then this kid with i think polio walked pass us using a walker. Then i felt so thankful that i actually have eyes to see and a fit body to do physical actives. Then we all went to the sports room. We played a game where there are two teams of 3 all trying to block the ball from going in. At first it sounded unfair because we can see and they cannot. But then the referee handed the people who can see, a blindfold. Now it was unfair but i was excited to watch. The blind kids were so good. They were using the sound of the rolling ball. But since we did not know that we looked like fools trying to block the air. After that we went back to the bus and went to the restaurant. They had some really good seafood. Then we went back to the bus and had a long drive back to school. After this trip am no longer scared of blind people. I no longer think they are scary. In conclusion this advisement trip has helped me over one of my biggest fear of blind people making it fun and interesting.
