Reggie Bush


 

 Reggie Bush

Reggie Bush was the running back for the USC college team from 2003 to 2005. He won the Heisman Trophy for the way he had played that season. But soon after NCAA forced him to vacate the trophy because he had done many major violations which meant he wasn’t aloud to play but the coaches didn't listen and still let him play until the NCAA found out. The NCAA found out that Reggie Bush had received cash, gifts, and other things when he wasn't supposed to. They stripped off the Heisman Trophy from him and all the wins from 2005 season were counted as losses for that violation. Bush had to forfeit his title as the 2005 winner. This is what happens when you don't follow the rules.

And if we are more obedient to laws of the nation to our parents we will be able to have as much freedom as we want.

9/11 Memorial



9/11 Memorial
9/11, one of the saddest day in America. A day we will never forget. A day in which everything began normally but it ended so tragically. Many loved ones were lost.  Many families were tore apart by this one day. 19 hijackers, 4 planes, 3 buildings hit, 1 field filled with airplane parts, and about 3,000 people died in those attacks.  American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, two of the four airplanes, were crashed in to the North and South towers of the World Trade Center. The first aircraft to crash into one of the buildings was American Airlines Flight 11 which crashed into the North tower at 8:46 a.m.  United Airlines Flight 175 crashed the South tower at 9:03 a.m. American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m. The last aircraft United Airlines Flight 93 did not hit a building but while its passengers were trying to seize control of the airplane again; it crashed into a field near Shankville, Pennsyvania at 10:03 a.m. All these attacks cost the lives of so many that until this day we still remember them.  I remember that the first time I heard of 9/11 or when I was fully able to understand it was when I was 8. My sister had rented a movie about it and we all went to see it. I cried because it was horrible seeing what had happened in those moments.


Reflection:  Seeing people throwing themselves of buildings, people crying filled with blood and  dirt, seeing the plane crashing into the building and imagining the thoughts of all those people in the planes and towers  when they are about to die, it’s just sad you wish there was something you could have done but you can’t. I cry every time I see a documentary or movie about because it’s just tragic seeing how 3,000 people died. It’s horrible what those 19 hijackers did but that didn't mean the U.S should have gone and killed many Iranians in the war because of these 19 did. 9/11 is a day we should remember and keep in mind because you never know what might happen in the next second of your life.

Student Success Statement Boyd K. Packer

Student Success Statement 
"The key to freedom is obedience."
Boyd K. Packer
Reflection: This quote is true because every government, for example the U.S. government, has a set of laws that you need to follow. In order for you to be free you have to follow those laws and obey them. This is where obedience falls in because if you don't follow the laws and obey them, then you will be taken to jail and get arrested which means you are no longer free.
