Reflection:

These 10 tips for being more truthful can really help me become a more honest person. You should always be honest to others and especially to yourself. Being honest has great benefits. To name a few honesty shows you care, honesty shows maturity and self acceptance, honesty can keep you out of trouble. and honesty attracts others honesty. I can apply talking to myself honestly about how I am doing in school and soccer. I don't want to lie to myself and say I'm doing my best in school and that I am a great soccer player already. I want to be honest with myself and know I can improve myself. Being honest can make you a better person. It can improve many areas of yourself that you didn't even know. People will respect you for being honest. There aren't many people that are always honest. 

School Break Days

       My Spring Break went well. The first thing that I did was played our first game on Friday with our new team that we have made with friends. We lost the game 3-0. The following day we had another game with the team and we won this game 2-0. Then we played our third game last Friday and we lost 5-0. The coach was disappointed in us so the next the we had practice at 6am. Hope we win our next game. Places I went this spring break was around DTLA on my way to the soccer games. A big soccer game that I watched was the Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich game. It was a good game and Real Madrid won 2-1. Throughout the break I would work very little on the Senior Defense, I am still not done and need to continue working on it.
