Dan Haesler: Bouncing Back
I am good at assembling and dissembling things and putting stuff together if I use and put my mind to it. I am also good at listening to people and giving advice to them.
Ways you could change someones life is to be there for them and have there back when you think no one else is (or just in general), Smiling at someone, Give when it hasn't been asked for, have faith and believe in someones dreams, compliment from the heart and mean it, let go of grudges and forgive and give someone time.
What I believe Dan Haeslers quote "instead of trying to find the meaning of life.... Concentrate on finding meaning IN life" means to be is the meaning of life is different for everyone you don't have to find out why you were put on this earth, just live your like to the fullest and happy. What it is IN life that you really look forward to. We as an individual should give the meaning of life not wait for us to understand what the meaning of life is.

Gratitiude letter
Dear Yohanna,
I'm so grateful (at times) that you are my sister, even though we fight a lot at the end of the day we still love each other (I hope). We use to play Sisterhood and we made a song and sung it each every morning that was like our anthem, you taught me how to read and write and i'm so grateful for that, it didn't really help but at least you tried, right? When i'm upset can be the most stubborn person ever but you always seem to be there even if i don't want to talk to you or you for you to comfort me your still always there, caring for me. You laugh at your own jokes that no one else laughs to and i just sit there laughing at you not with you and i'm grateful you can make me laugh either way. I appreciate you so much even though our relationship is a love hate one, well majority hate but I still love you endlessly. Your my partner in crime, my best friend and my sister!

Brain Boosters Reflection
In this session about the brain I learnt the following that will aid me in the future with my studies. I need to stimulate different parts of my brain by using my non-preferred hand whilst doing activities. Limiting my time of watching TV, as it is putting my brain on autopilot. I need to eat well and exercise to provide my brain with sufficient oxygen and energy. Sleep well, Sleep plays an important role in cleansing toxins and forming memories.
Study Skills Reflection.
During the recent Examination period I had implemented the material discussed at the Study skills Presentation by making a study timetable to follow by. I used the Health tips on page 20 by eating dinner around 6 pm, 9.2 hours per night to operate optimal levels, drink a minimum of 10 to 12 glasses of purified water per day, eat more water rich foods that alkaline your body and fresh foods and vegetables. My lost skill that I had Incorporated into studying for the recent Examination period, I has studied in chunks which was 50 minutes studying and 5/or 10 minutes break.
Cyber-bullying session reflection
Due to the Cyber-bullying session I have completely changed the way I use Social Media. I make sure that I only add people that I know, and I also have deleted the random adds that I have received. I have also made sure that I have made more of my social media secure as I had gotten scared about the predator stories that I got told.
