CST Testing Reflection

This week I took the California Standardized Test and I think I did good so far. On Monday I took the Language Arts test in Ms. Priesters room, there was a lot of reading in the first part. The second part was a little easier because it had less reading. The second day I didn't have to do any testing because I'm not in a math class so I just stayed in the gym all day. On Wendesday I too the World History test With Ms. Morris and I think I did good.

My Feelings about the Upcoming CSTs

I don't realy feel stressed or nervous about the California Standardized Tests because I just study for it and prepared before it. I wasn't nervous or stressed during the CAHSEE except for the math but beside math test I don't get nervous during test. I just pick the answer that is relevant or seems to be the closes answer to the question.

UnGoogleable Research – What I Already Know

I know what each DEFCON means such as
DEFCON 5 means that there is no war and its peaceful and the military is set to its lowest readiness condition.
DEFCON 4 means its normal but the military is still set to the lowest readiness condition, this DEFCON is the normal defense condition and it is never turned off.
DEFCON 3 means an increase in force readiness above normal readiness
DEFCON 2 means further increase in force readiness, but less than maximum readiness, this is also the highest DEFCON that the United States has set it to during the Cuban Missile Crisis and the military are authorized to send ballistic missiles.
DEFCON 1 means maximum force readiness and the military are authorized to send nuclear bombs.

The procedures are different between many commands, they have changed over time as new weapon systems are created, and the precise details remain classified. For each DEFCON the Army, Marines, and other branches have different procedures, drills, and commands as the conditin of readiness changes.

Fourth Quarter Kickoff Reflection

I went to the tech center thinking that it was a normal school day, but when I arrived there was no teachers and the lights in the classroom were off. I asked someone were everyone was at and she said that the sophomores were in the classromm next to the teachers lounge. I went to the classroom and four teachers were there and explaining that we were gonna watch a movie called "Stand And Deliver". The movie was about Garfield High School and the students who passed the APC test. Then we had a discussion about the film. After that we went to go play different games wich I didn't participate in.
