There are many life experiences that you learn when you come to college. Being away from your parents makes it seem like the real world and that they can't always be there for you. Mom and dad won't be there to tell you to do your homework. There are many distractions out there to lead you off your path of getting homework done, but you have to manage them and get it done. Friends, sports, and exhaustion are 3 distractions that can affect you. It is important for you to get your homework done and get good grades because your paying this school for an education and you are not going to find the job you want without a college degree.

Some more advice would be when a teacher gives you a project or assignment and makes the due date in a couple weeks, do not wait until the last minute to do it because your other classes homework will interfere with that and create a huge problem for you. You might be able to get your project done in a hour so you just put it off, well something might come up where your not able to get it done so just get it done early. Checking your emails is another advice for college because there can be some very important stuff on there. Teachers can cancel your 8:00 class in the morning and you wake up early and get there and there is no class. Also, teachers may change due dates to things that are due and you definitely do not want to miss that so it is very important to check your emails around 3 times a day. All of these different pieces of advice should help you be successful in college.

Thoreau starts off the chapter pondering the places he could have went to rather Waldon Pond. He didn't care that Waldon Pond wasn't as big as the places he had pondered about.

1. Thoreau believes that you don't need any kind of wealth or money, therefore I believe he falls into the category of the subjectivists point of view.  He mentions that he'd want trust more than love, money, or fame.

2. Thoreau also says that he believes the universe is more then are beliefs of it. By this statement, it makes me believe that Thoreau thinks there is more to the universe than we know. A person may know a lot about some certain ideas but in reality only knows a fraction of everything out there.

3. I agree because being rich is what you think the definition of rich means. Some people think rich is fame and fortune and other people think being rich is faithfulness and other qualities.  For me I don't need to have a lot of money to be happy.

Knicks Celtics

On April 17th 2012, the New York Knicks defeated the Boston Celtics 118 to 110. Carmelo Anthony of the Knicks recorded a triple double scoring 35 points 12 rebounds and 10 assists. Steve Novak and JR Smith for the knicks combined 15 for 20 from 3, each scoring 25 points. Tyson Chandler also added 20 points. This is by far the best game the Knicks have played all season. Paul Pierce had the best game of the season for the Celtics scoring 43 points.

The trial

On the day of Joesph K's birthday, two men came into his house to seize him. These two men went and took him somewhere and the thought of resisting the men came across his mind. Joesph K thought it would be better not to and he decided to cooperate. On the street they're are on they pass a police officer and they get away from him and walked out of town. The men took Joesph to a quarry that is deserted and tell him to kill himself with a butcher knife. Joesph K does not kill him something, but he sees something in the distance (Kafka 137).

The one guy put his hand on Joesph's throat and the other stabbed him in the heart. Joesph is now near to death and barely being able to see his last words were "Like a dog." (Kafka 137).

Old teams in NBA

The team with the best record in the NBA right now is the San Antonio Spurs. One of the hottest teams in the NBA is the Boston Celtics. When the playoffs come I believe these two teams will not make it far because of how old they are. They will not be able to withstand a 7 games series with teams like the Heat or Bulls for the Celtics and the Thunder for the Spurs. In my opinion I think it is going to be the Heat vs the Thunder in the NBA finals.
