"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." ~Mahatma Gandhi

Life goals are very important. You need them to stay busy and focused. Role models in my life inspire me to make the world a better place, and if not the whole world, someone's world. My parents have inspired me to set goals and become humble and loyal to others.

Google Says Its Self-Driving Cars Drive Better Than You
Google has been testing self-driving cars for years. Six years in fact, with a fleet of 20+ self-driving cars, which have self-driven almost a million miles over that period — and are now averaging around 10,000 self-driven miles per week.

There has only been 11 minor accident according to Google’s Chris Urmson, but he blames the self (human) drivers.

Over the 6 years since we started the project, we’ve been involved in 11 minor accidents (light damage, no injuries) during those 1.7 million miles of autonomous and manual driving with our safety drivers behind the wheel, andnot once was the self-driving car the cause of the accident.

May 5th: Attire Class

If I were a teacher, I would create an attire class, or fashion class. My students would be able to express their character through their style of clothes. I would educate them on how different clothes complement each other and how to put a flawless outfit together. They'll know the DO's and DON'Ts of outfits. They would learn how to have the best clothes and outfits for the any event and also how to save money when purchasing attire.

I would choose to have this class during half their lunch period, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for the whole school year. Although most students go against rules and skip classes that take up half their lunch period, my class would be so interesting and lively that they would want to stay their whole lunch period.

After all the hard work produced by the students, I believe a school fashion show would be best to show off their hard work and dedication to the rest of the school and town. My class could help students decide what they want their future to look like, whether it includes fashion or without fashion.....at least their outfits would be nice
