Don't do it

“Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn’t. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don’t do it.”  

                                                                  -George Mitchell

This quote is saying to not cheat. It’s simple. Don’t do it man. It’s not worth it. Much like the previous post, this one tells you to not cheat no matter what. By the way no one likes a cheater. In the long wrong they will feel bad if they ever did cheat. Sometimes people think lying and cheating are very different, when in reality they are very similar. When you tell a lie, you’re cheating the truth. Key word here is cheating. You see how it all connects in the end? George Mitchell isn’t telling you a super complicated quote that requires a spiritual journey to understand. No. It’s just telling you the simple hard hitting truth. If you cheat because you think you need it or whatever stupid reason, you make to excuse your cheating, no one will like you, because no one likes a cheater. No one forces you to cheat. You do it because you want to or like to. If someone forced you than that completely changes everything. But much to my surprise nothing can excuse you from cheating. Let’s say you and a friend take a test. He ended up scoring a 95. But you cheated and got a 100. When actually performing what you need to know he will succeed because he made an effort and was honest about, while you fail in life, for having cheated. That is why you shouldn’t cheat overall. It makes you look dirty and untrustworthy. Some people cheat some people don’t, is like saying, some people succeed and some people fail. Guess who are the ones that fail. Yep. So do yourself a favor and follow George’s words of wisdom. Anyway happy April Fool’s Day.

Demand:

Picture:

Reflection:

I wouldn’t become a psychologist because I don’t really like talking to people. Frankly I can be a very crude person, so listening to someone else’s emotions won’t make me care. They also don’t get paid as much as a nuclear engineer.

April Fool's Day

                         April Fool’s Day

April Fool’s day is on April 1st. The purpose of April Fool’s day is not fully confirmed.It dates back to the fifteen hundreds. There was a julian calendar, which had new year’s eve on April 1st. However Pope Gregory XIII demanded for there to be a new calendar. This new calendar made it so that New Year’s Eve would be celebrated on January 1st. However, there were people who were “traditionalists” and kept celebrating on April 1st. So people who followed the new calendar would take April 1st to pull pranks and other fun stuff on people who still celebrated new years on April 1st. Some theories say that a roman emperor, Constantine, was being entertained by a jester, to which they said they could rule better than the current king. Constantine was amused and made the jester king for a day. He then made it law so that one day a year would be spent with humor like pulling pranks and tricking people. Some pros about April Fool’s Day is that everyone spends this day having many laughs. Everyone pulls a neat little trick on someone they know, and laughter is heard everywhere. However, there are also many cons. Some people just don’t like to celebrate and think it’s stupid. Some people are also party poopers and will start nagging if they are bothered during April fools. Some other people can also think this holiday is just really stupid.

"I won't cheat"

    “I won’t cheat”

                                                                    -Dale Murphy

This quote has one message for you, and it’s simple. Don’t cheat. Never cheat. No matter how much you want or think you need to, don’t do it man. That’s all this post is about. Don’t cheat man. You’re going to crack eventually.Cheating start off small, but can get bigger over time. Before you know it, you end up in jail because you cheated on the test of intelligence in ninth grade. Now you’re a junkie and can’t seem to get your life together, because your reputation followed you over the years. Let’s say you become an athlete and you use drugs. Sure it might feel right the moment you do it, but I can assure you that you will crack, and you will have confess. Some people even go as far as to committing suicide because they don’t want to let the truth out, but they can’t take the pressure of lying either. A good example is that track running lady. She went years lying about how she didn’t use drugs. Even the fbi went to question her, yet she lied right to their face. After years she finally cracked. She told the fbi that she had been using drugs and for a really long time. The fbi didn’t take this lightly. Instead they had her jailed. She is still in jail as you read this. Probably. That is one very good example of why you shouldn’t cheat. Even if it’s as small as copying homework. Or as big as a medical test to graduate medical school. Don’t cheat. It’s just not worth it. By not cheating you do things the fair way and will always feel good in the end

Reflection:

I would become a psychiatrist. I find talking to people very relaxing. So helping people figure out their problems is helping them. This means I can help people realize something they themselves have yet to learn. This job is also very capable of being something I can live off of and hopefully one day retire and live in peace.
