HOW LIFE MATTERS

I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.- Che Guevara
This quote makes a lot of sense to me because he is basicaly saying that if the man that is trying to kill him does kill him the killer will only be killing a man and nothing else. It does not matter if your killing a criminal or an inoccent man. The fact still stands that you had just killed a man of human race. killing a man is only going to hurt the people around you but it wont hurt the world. The death of a man even if he or she is the most hated criminal on earth can bring some happiness and relaxation to the world but still it was only a man. Man was created only to kill itself and eventually the world. But now the only thing keeping us from killing ourselves is the peace that we have for one another.
MCJROTC- Anything Essay III
I like the JROTC program here in Atrisco. I think that this program is a very cool and efficient way to get your mind straight and get the things done in school that will get you to graduate on time and walk the line. The ROTC instructors are very persuasive and forcefull at making you achieve a goal that not very many peole can achieve on their own. Colonel Seal of the Marine Corps who is the Senior Instructor of the ROTC program has always pushed me when i was in the gutter. He might look nice and give off a good vibe but if you keep pushing yourself into a bad situation he will get on your ass and make you push youself into a situation where you will have no choice but to succeed in high school and soon after in life. The Dicipline and rules of the program can teach you a lot of life lessons and you can learn how to take care of yourself and have respect for others around you and also yourself.

Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.- William Shakespeare
This quote from Shakespeare is a very life realizing view. Some people are born with some kind of greatness, some are able to achieve their greatness by working their hardest, and others are forced to achieve their greatness. This quote shows the greatness of the good and the greatness of the bad. How one can choose to achieve at their best or achieve at their worst. Everyone can achieve at a greatness even if they dont realize it. I had realized my greatness long ago and still choose to live with it even when many people think that it is pointless because I can't achieve at my greatness just like others.
The Five Regrets of Dying
These five regrets of life are very familiar with the family deaths that i have encountered over the years of my life. These regrets hit most of the dying but will never occur until they sit in bed for their last living moments of their life. If people of this world were to realize these words than maybe we would not be in the pyroclastic world where people keep to themselves and never even try to live their life the way they WANT it and live their life the way others SEE it. I see these regrets as a reality check to what i can accomplish by being myself and achieving what I would like to do with my life. Many people should see these regrets as a chance to redeem their lives and to do what is right not for the people around them but themselves inside. Doing this will greatly improve oneself and make them realize you only live one life, so use it and worship it like its all you got because in the end if your not happy your life is all your going to end with.
Marksmanship- Anything Essay II
Marksmanship is one of my most favorite hobbies. I have been doing marksman since my freshman year till the beginning of my senior year. I still participate here and there when i can but most of the time i just teach new subjects and watch others improve on their skills while i help them hone their skills. Shooting is not such an easy thing like other people think. There are a lot of factors in how to get the perfect shot for a perfect score. There's the breathing in which you need to control and not "bounce" your shot. There's the trigger control in which can pull your shot into either the left or the right. Then there's the body position that also controls where your body naturally aims without you fighting to aim where you want. These factors you can control if you know how to use them. Otherwise your shots are not going to be at their best and you will be tho worst shot in the team. Being a marksman is a lot of dedication and hard work. If you are willing to have the patience and strength to keep your body under control then thats when you can become one of the best shooters in the country. Me personally I aint one of the best but I know what im talking about when it comes to training for marksmanship. Even when others doubt my knowledge I learned from some of the best of shooters.

Our School: Atrisco Heritage Academy HS
Our school is not the best school in the state, well maybe it is but the teachings here are just the same as any other school in Albuquerque. Our school is not just any ordinary school, we are one of the most high tech schools in the state because we needed this school in the west side of Albuquerque. We are so high tech that we have promethian boards in every classroom and also projectors as well. Our principle Dr. Griego is not any ordinary principle. She is a very rough individual and pushes many of her staff and students to their limits. Many of our teachers push us to excell in our academics and usually it works but as the younger gen's come into their high school life the teaching and discipline tends to fluxuate.
In this school we have more technological advancments then using actual text books that could give just as much information as the internet would. Also this school is very advanced in its physical design, we have more buildings than the supreme court has rooms. Seems a little funny but actually is very entertaining. We have a much bigger library than most schools and better ways of producing assignments and grades than any other district. If it wasn't for the funding that this school was able to gather up we would not have all this amazing technology.
I have been a student here for three years. I joined my sophmore year and when i came to Atrisco my first thought was that this school looked like a gigantic concrete prison. Soon after a couple of months i got use to the teachers and my subordinates here. For a while i was called many names, especially since i was an exchange student but i earned my respect with a few people after a few months. Now even though im not known by many people i have a lot of good friends and even now i have my fiance which is sitting here right next to me while I right this.
now as i get to the end of this story i have only very few things to say. One, i will never have any regrets about this school because they helped me up when i was down. Two, i made a lot of great, amazing friends and even the best fiance i have ever met. And last but not least, if their is anything that i will know about this school its that we will always carry their teachings with us and they will be teaching for many, many generations ahead of not only me but everyone like me.

"A man who won't die for something is not fit to live."- Martin Luther King Jr.
This quote by Martin Luther King is very touching. this quote symbolizes what a simple man or even a complicated one can do to put his life in front of something that he is willing to die for, such as putting his whole life into something that he likes or even loves doing. Putting your life into something that you love doing shows that you are willing to die for not only what you believe in but in what you do. Even dying for someone you love shows that you are willing to throw your life first rather than throwing theirs. For example, im willing to jump in front of a bullet for my fiance because she means the world to me and i would want anything bad or horrible to happen to her. If anything happened i would be in hatred of myself because i didnt live up to my expectations of protecting her from total danger. Another example is how much life and effort i put into the marksmanship program here at Atrisco Heritage Academy. I put my life after others because i want to be able to teach someone who could possibly live longer or do better than what i have done in so many years. If i never put my life after others than i would never know how it feels to live because i would never know how it feels to put my life on the line for something i love doing or for the person i truly love.
