TO ALL MY COMMUNITY SERVICE WEEKEND SURVIVORS...

CONGRATULATIONS!

You definitely Made A Difference this weekend and you should be proud of yourselves for that...! Despite the number of things listed down on your "needs to improve" section, I sure hope you have, somehow, reflected and examined your own lives and realized how lucky and/or fortunate you are for having ALL the things you have in comparison with the children you met over the weekend. Thank your parents for this and learn to "count your blessings" instead of continuously focusing on simply getting what you want.

Now, down to business...I would kike you to reflect on the weekend on your own. On an A4/F12/DS/TNR, write me an essay of no more than two pages long on the title, "How has this weekend affected me and where do I go from here...!" Talk about how the trip affected you, no matter how minimal, and what it did to you as a person. Try to be as honest and as truthful as possible instead of simply writing what you think I would like to read. Make sure you do not waste what learning experiences you gained over the weekend just so you can impress me with what you write. Be yourself when you write and do not allow others to persuade you to write something else aside from what you really feel about how everything went over the weekend. This is all due on Tuesday, 23 March 2010...first thing in the morning---write which Literature Class you are from...!

See you all tomorrow...bright and early...CIAO!!!

Mr. A
