This week was about the same as last week except we had a test on Friday at the end of the week. I was fully committed to passing the test so I spent about an hour studying for it. I was also more patient in geometry since I understood a problem and while we were solving it I had to wait until everyone else understood the problem so I have been becoming more patient. This week we did not have an excessive amount of homework but we did have to study for the test. I hope all weeks are like this (homework wise) because I can get home and relax instead of getting home and having to start my homework immediately. T

This week was a bit better than last week in terms of quizzes and tests. We barely had any quizzes or tests so I did not spend too much time having to study. However we did have a lot of homework like essays and a lot of questions.  I had to be determined to finish the homework because otherwise I would have never finished. My patience has been improving since I have had to be patient a lot this week, for example I finished a quiz which was very easy for me yet I had to be patient and wait for all my other classmates to finish which took about 20 minutes. I hope we get a bit less homework for the following weeks because I am lacking sleep and that is not good. 

Throughout the week I was able to exercise my virtue a little bit.  While I was a t school I tried to understand my friends and classmates better. At home I also was more understanding with my parents. Another virtue that I exercised was commitment, I usually am not committed to studying but this week I was committed to studying for all the quizzes and tests that we had. I was also determined to passing the quizzes and tests so I was determined to get a passing grade. I was able to exercise all of my virtues this week not only with others and my family but with myself I was understanding, determined, and committed.

Randy Martinez In a matter of a week I feel like I did not have enough time to exercise my virtues.  Within 5 days I have been focused on school more than anything and an opportunity has no really come up for me to fully exercise my virtues.  In order for me to exercise determination for example I must be fully committed to trying to be a good person because I must be determined to helping out. At school I will try to exercise my virtues but there has not been the opportunity to do so. I have been trying to be more understanding when I talk to people so I have been attempting to exercise that virtue. In more time I will be able to fully exercise my virtues on and off school but for now no opportunity has come up.
