    Mr.Buxton- I found (I think) a precept on a book. I don't know if this is a good precept but....

    It's outside that matters, no one cares whats on the inside.

    I did not make this precept...

    This to me feels that the girl in the book made this NEGATIVE precept about herself.... and no one caring what in the inside is no one caring whats in the girl....

    (By girl I mean the main character in the book....)

    Mr. Buxton- Can we use our no homework pass on the Tuesday before the due date for our Social Studies project, the place, and have our project due on the Thursday?

    mr buxton, my thesis and pretty much whole botanical gardens project is about how it established and the success evidences and progressives of the place, but not about the war. i really hope thats okay. the problem was that at botanical gardens, the only people that work there are people in restaurants, and i asked a couple, but no one knew the history of the gardens.

    I found this in my book i'm not sure it's a precept but I think it has a powerful meaning

    Fair means everyone gets what they need. And the only way to get what you need is to make that happen yourself.

  43. Maya S.May 20, 2012 at 4:16 PM

    Rachel- I sent my application at the beginning of the year and was only accepted in late April, so you have to wait a really long time. Also, they put you in a group and show you other posters related to what you put in your application.

    For the Chinese fair I'm also going to paint characters on people's hands. I need more words to write. I already have good, peace, love, and luck. Can someone tell me some more words?
