Something Interesting About the Book I'm Reading
The book im reading is called "The Boy Most Likely To" . There's a character who's name is Tim. Tim's parents kicked him out of their house. So Tim went to go live in the basement of his friends house. The part that I found interesting was when Tim found out he had a kid who is six months old.

Today I'm A Good Human Being
Everyday is a chance to do something good for someone or for yourself. Whether it be opening a door for a elderly lady or doing extra work to get extra credit in a certain class. Everyday I choose to be a good human being by doing something good whether it be a small thing. I think everyone needs that kind of mind set to start off the day. Today I helped my nana (my grandma) do grocery shopping because she can't carry heavy things. It feels good to do something for other people.

Letter to My Mentor
Big Question: How do people know that you'll be successful in life and to know that you'll accomplish your goals and dreams?
Dear John Wooden,
Hello the "Wizard of Westwood" ! That's so cool that you coached the UCLA basketball team. What made you create the pyramid of success? What were your intentions of creating it? What did it feel like when your team won 88 games in a row? What kinds of sacrifices did you make over time by accomplishing your goal of wining 88 games. As you can tell I have lots of questions to ask you regarding being successful and tips on basketball. We should schedule a interview soon. That will mean a lot. Hope you have a great day!
Sincerely,
Brigett Yruegas
