Colleges

The three colleges i did research on were University of Houston, Texas A&M, and Houston Baptist University.
U of H is 15.3 miles away form home and that is why i want to go there because it's so close. The school is pretty big, it is 667 acres. It's in an urban co-ed school located in Houston. If you are in the top 15% you don't have a SAT requirement. If you are 15%-50% you need a 1000 score on the SAT. For Tuition, room and board is $16,418. To apply you need a high school diploma or GED, have to be a U.S. citizen, and a SSN. Some things they have at the university is chapels, healthcare, daycare, sports and fitness center. They have sororities, fraternities, and sports.
Texas A&M is an hour and half away from Houston. The school is really big. It's 5,200 acres big. It's a 4-6 year school, it is also an urban school and co-ed. Your GPA has to be a 3.2 and have an SAT score of 1210. Tuition room and board is $24,803, a lot more than the U of H. Some Financial Aid dates are March 1,2011 and September 30,2011. You can get an apartment with a roommate if you like or just for yourself. Texas A&M also has sports, sorority and fraternities.
Houston Baptist University is pretty much around the corner from my house its super close. It's a smaller school it's just 100 acres big. It's and urban, christian co-ed school. You need to have an SAT score of 1250, ACT score of 27, two recommendation letters, and a 3.2 GPA to apply. It's a private university so its more expensive than public universities. They have hall facilities where guys and girls are seperated. You can have a roommate if you want as well. Some things they offer at this university is counseling, liberal art, and many other things.

Reflection of Reflection :D

When Coach Nash gave us back our reflection from the beginning of the year I was super shocked for what I wanted to do this year. I wanted to go clubbing! Who does that!! That’s not related to school what so ever. Now I don’t care to go clubbing because it doesn’t grab my attention as much as it did back in the beginning of the year. So I’m glad I didn’t do that.

On the bright side I wanted to get all A’s and B’s and I did. I’m passing all my classes. I’ve been doing pretty good in most of my classes. I also wanted to get a car so I can drive to school. I didn’t get my car but I can drive now and get my license! That’s awesome now all I need is my car.

Anger management

My final activity topic is how to manage your anger. Having anger management problems isn’t good for your health, specially if you have heart problems, you have to stay calm and not get mad.

For my activity you need to have a pencil and paper. With that pen and paper you need to write four headings on it. One that says “Do something to relax,” “Re-channel your Energy,” “Talk to Someone You Trust,” and “Get Some Physical Activity.” Under each heading write two specific activities you should try. After that you have to compare your answers with a partner.

I choose this topic because I personally have anger issues and I do hate having them, because when I get mad I stay mad for a while and cannot control it. I take my anger out on someone around me, and I also get chest pains and I know that’s no good for me.

I plan to walk/run around my neighborhood during the summer every other, and eat much more healthier. Not eat so much junk food anymore. If I start working out I will be able to get in shape and it will help my stress out too. If I start eating healthier I won’t get to sick or feel bad after I eat something I’m not suppose too. I can start eating more salads, eating the proportions I’m suppose to eat. Eat more fruit and vegetables, like peaches, apples, oranges, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. Plus, if I do both of these things it might help my chest pains a little
