African Proverb

" Knowledge is better than riches"

What does that African Proverb mean to you? How can it be used in your everyday life? Give an example.

What the African Proverb " Knowledge is better than riches" means to me is it's more important to have an education than it is to have a lot of money with a expensive house and unintelligent. This can be used in my everyday life by me staying in school and not having to worry about ever being broke because I can get a good paying job. For instance I want to be an Obstetrician which pays a good amount of money, but in order for me to even get that far I have to finish High School and College. Surprisingly a lot of my family who are around my age are going to be working in the same field of work so I'll be close to them.

08-09 School Year

Clearly one of my goals for this year is to be to school on time. Furthermore I would like to be prepared for my classes by having all of my school supplies, homework, and etc. I think in the beginning of last year I was more prepared for class as far as turning in homework and projects than I was towards the end of school. In fact I didn't start coming to school on time until the middle of the school year. It seems that I got to comfortable in the good grades that I received on my previous work that I didn't think not doing some work would effect my grades. As a result of Mothura Marcia telling me if I was late again I would serve Saturday detention I was on time or early every morning.

I believe the benefits of attending New Media is that you learn more challenging work unlike public schools. I think my weakest subjects was RELA and Social Studies. Although my strongest subjects was Science and Math. In fact I think that I did good in Science and Math because they both were interesting and got me thinking all the time. It's evidence to show that I had no care and interest in RELA and Social Studies. I feel that I did okay last year in DMM but I'll do exceptionally better this year.
