Entry 11: Worms
When I have a bad day I usually keep silent and try to look on the brighter side of things or try to avoid thinking about the event. However if it was a really bad day I would get angry and it would show on my face, then I would let the anger out on other people around me. I try to play detective and find the reason why I am having such a bad day. Is it because of the things I did or because of other people, and how I can avoid letting it happen again. I don't try to escape from the problem, I face it and try to solve it. It isn't easy but I find it beneficial for myself. I like learning from my mistakes and therefore finding the reason is really important to me. I wouldn't try anything stupid that would end up harming myself. I also try to overload myself with work (any type of work), so that I get distracted from thinking too much. Also I find that talking about it to someone that you trust can also release the pressure.

Entry 10: Ivy or not Ivy? That is the question.
In my personal opinion Ivy league school still offer more advantages, but it only makes a difference if you are going take advantage of it or not. I agree that it all depends on the student but I don't believe that people who get accepted into the same school would end up having the same pay check 20 years later. However ivy league schools do seems to be a selector, but one that has great resources. It may be true that the schools are only there to make sure you succeed but ivy league schools seem to be a better helper than state schools. The statistics that he mentioned in his speech didn't seem reliable to me because if you randomly pick two people who got accepted to the same ivy league school but one didn't go. They are not always going to end up making the same amount or around the same amount of money. Also a state school and its environment may also affect how a person studies and affect their success. So I am not completely disagreeing with his theory but I am saying that it has holes in it.

Entry 9: Who me?
This person seems alright at first but once you get to know him you find flaws. He's lazy at times and very irresponsible for certain things in his life. He can be way too bossy and a push over at times and that really pisses me off. It really hard to work with him because he's always "busy" or he is just unwilling to do it with me. I am not sure but I think he hates me too and I hate him for that. He judges people way to quickly and gets annoyed very easily. He has a low tolerance level of any kind of annoyance or disturbance, however he can be very annoying himself sometimes. He can be very arrogant at times and humbles in other times which makes me feel as if he's faking it. Not sure why but it just seems to be a sense of hatred flowing in his direction from me. He lies from time to time and seems to view himself as being better than others. I really don't like people who lie and people who are unreliable.

Entry 8: Hate
There are certain things in this world that I just can't take, and this one person seems to hold a lot of those values. He's averaged height, dark hair, ugly face, and has a weird sense of fashion (think's he's a jock but looks like a nerd). He is always blabbering about such random and annoying things. Humming and singing songs he can't sing, and thinking that he's good at it at the same time. He constantly finds flaws in others and never accepts the fact that he has a lot of flaws himself. He is so full of himself thinking that he's academically better than others. He has such low grades himself and he makes fun of others for having a B- in a math class. another thing is that he thinks he's popular when he really isn't. Thinking he's funny when he's really annoying. Everyone who meets him and gets to know him for a couple of weeks learn to avoid him. To avoid the presence of such person being alive and going to the same school. I just can't take that kind of egotistical and annoying person. The thing that pisses me off the most is that he knows he's annoying but just won't stop being annoying. He's a showy, braggy, little coward that are scared of people who have more potential or ability in any field. He takes no responsibility in anything he does and always finds a way to blame it on others. I HATE HIM!

Entry 7: Last Thoughts
As I lie here in my death bed, I can't help but reflect on my old life. What have I done? What have I accomplished? I couldn't help but smile that those sweet memories of my childhood and try hard to forget those that hurt. among the happy moment contain one that I am most proud of. The day I graduated from college and began on my journey of official adulthood. I may have been 18 along time before graduation but I didn't feel like an adult until l I graduated. I remember that day i went up on the elaborately decorated stage as they called my name. The dean looked at me and smiled passing into my hand the diploma. I smiled back and shook his hand while taking the diploma. My heart was pumping fast at first with excitement and then with a little bit of fear. What was I going to do? What if I don't get a job?However that didn't ruin my mood until a few days later. Now that I have talked about my proudest event I guess it time to reflect on the most shameful of them all. It was while I was in high school. My parents have came to school to visit the head of school and I sat in to listen. I can't remember specifically what my father said but I got angry and began to talk back at him and criticizing him. It wasn't until I was done did I realize what I have done in front of a total outsider. I walked out of the room not saying another word and scolded my self. It was so embarrassing and shameful that I tried so hard to forget but I couldn't forget. However I seems to me that i have lived a eventful live and that there is nothing left on my bucket list left, other than dying peacefully and without pain.

Entry 6: Innocent
My client has showed through his actions that he is a good global citizen. He is not the kind of person who would be selling illegally modified BB guns to children. The opposing side states that my client has bought, modified, and sold BB guns to children. However let me ask you this. For the people out there in the audience who has ever seen Patrick get involved in violent or disorderly behavior? No one? Just what I expected my client has shown to be a friendly and kind person, not the kind who would sell weapons to innocent children, children like himself. To add to that point my client has never owned a BB gun himself, and when his friends asked him to join them in a simulated "war" with BB guns my client rejected them say: " I don't want to hurt anyone." How can a person with such a pure heart and mind even be accused of doing such a thing? Your honor my opponent has no physical evidence of my client selling the guns other than a blurry video tape. In the video tape they accuse my client as being the hooded man with a big garbage bag full of illegally modified guns. However my client being a honest man that he is has clearly stated that at the time the video was being recorded he was at home, doing homework. Not playing black-ops not face booking, but doing homework. My client is such a studious, friendly, kind, and non-violent person, how can he be accused of such a thing. Your honor I urge you to not believe in my opposing side's lies and to believe in my client's innocence.

Entry 5: Shot Down in Flames
Judging from the applicant's resume and job interview, the conclusion is that he is unfit for the position. He has applied for designer and his resume shows that he is not that the level of experience needed. On the resume he handed us he seemed to do well in school but never had real experience. However it is not the only reason he is not being accepted. During his job interview he has shown us indecision which for a designer is bad because he will always rely on other people to make the final decision. Therefore he would have no ingenuity and his designs would always be similar to others if not in another person's perspective. also he was extremely nervous throughout the interview making me believe that he isn't confident. Being someone who is too represent our logo with his designs, he must be confident in what he is doing. He doesn't seem to express enough of his own style and we are looking for people who are unique but not weird. He may need more years of experience interning in other places before he can come back and apply for this job. This is the report on the applicant Patrick Chen.
