THE END
The moment I've or whoever has read these blogs has all been waiting for. The conclusion to the plethora of blogs we've all been typing up. Sixteen isn't such a large number, but when you consider how long we've been doing these things for, it has been a lot. Anyways, this will be the last time I will ever talk about how my weeks go, so might as well start. So, let's start off with prudence(as always). I kind of messed up and made a dumb mistake in a quiz, but it's still an A in the gradebook, so I'm okay with that(and I multiplied the wrong numbers by the way). There was also the World History test, but that's a whole other story in itself. I guess the way in which I practiced honesty this week was by owning up to the fact that I really just made one simple mistake, and that it's not bad. I've been honest with myself for a while now, I vow to speak the truth and only the truth. Aside from that, there's the final and most important virtue of them all(at least for me), and that's acceptance. Basically, I practiced this virtue in a very simple manner. Whether you struggle or have your bad moments along the way, there are still people that believe in you. That's right, I accepted this statement. This was a scroll given to me in the honor roll by the way, and I agreed with what it said. It also made me realize how I can practice acceptance in greater amounts. There's still a lot of things I haven't accepted in the world yet, and I have yet to do so. Wow, that actually made me think for a moment. Anyways, hopefully all of you are having a good week as of now, and it's honestly been a pleasure to write all sixteen of these. Goodbye all.

The Penultimate Blog.....
I honestly cannot believe this is already the fifteenth blog, man time sure goes by fast. Anyways, this week has been interesting so far. The way I practiced prudence was by being careful on how to approach the teachers that gave me Z's in assignments(even though I already turned them in). I ended up getting the Z's changed to A's(except for one, which is most likely being changed tomorrow, due to a group activity...), and it was honestly great. Honesty this week I did not get to practice a lot. Well, maybe I did. I kind of openly stated that I did have cousins(and still have one) going to this high school, so I guess I was being honest. As for acceptance, I have continued to accept myself throughout the course of this week, and I am looking for a great outcome by the end of this grading period. I should mention that compared to previous weeks, I didn't get to practice virtues as much due to a field trip on Friday, and because this week was nothing out of the ordinary really(but next week will be, because we have a study guide and test :)). So hopefully I can use my prudence to study the material carefully, and perform well(the fate of the world depends on it....(just kidding). I'm kind of sad to see that next week will be the conclusion to these blogs, and it really has felt like I've been taking a journey through this whole Character Experiment project. And even though perhaps some of my blogs may have been lackluster compared to others, at least I got to truly measure how much I've grown(and, as I've previously stated, dealt with bumps along the road). I will make sure to make the last blog memorable, to an extent. Goodbye everyone.
