About Me
- Mr. Phillips
- I have been teaching at SPCC since 2004. I love interacting with students everyday and working with my peers. I also love playing and coaching basketball, playing baseball, and golfing. I love being spontaneous and riding the wave of life where it takes me. I am also very proud to have the best wife, duaghter, and a brand new edition on the way in September. My parents are a driving force in who I have become and throughout my life I have had the best friends around me who love me for who I am. God has guided me in many ways that have turned into miracles.
Today was a nice day. I didn't crack my knuckles at all. That is the 2nd day I didn't crack them. I am very proud of myself. My snacking habit is still pretty bad. I was getting a lot better than today I had some cake and a cookie in Mrs Nordahls room because jack made his first communion I got dismissed from school and now I'm in Hampton. I am sitting outside with everyone and we have a nice fire going. I really need to focus on my snacking but I know I will be challenged especially in Hampton.
ReplyDeletewait I think that was meant to go on yesterday's blog
ReplyDeleteToday went really well! Again, I had soccer all day and didn't have time to have any extra fattening foods. When I did I had fruit or snack bar.
ReplyDeleteIt was a very hot and humid day out on the field so I made sure I drank lots and lots of water before and after the games. I avoided all my possible triggers and stuck with it.
Thank you Mr. Phillips for giving us this project to do. It helped me in ways to eat better and how to take care of my body. I know now not to eat fattening foods all the time but sometimes just for a treat.
I made a schedule for myself. Everyday I will go for a run around the neighborhood even if I have some sporting event the same day. I will have 2 pieces of fruit a day and plenty of water. I think this project had changed me and how I feel about myself.
Great Job 8th Grade! Have a Blessed Memorial Day!🇺🇸
Tofay wen excellent for me . I avioded my junk food habit . I was at my brothers baseball tournament and someone offered me a donut . I remember my bad habit and avoided the junk food. Instead I had fruit and a rice cake. When I got home from the tournament I washed my dad's car . After that I went to the mivies and saw Hot Pursuit. Today went we'll I'm eating dinner now and I'm exhausted I'm not going in my phone and go to bed .
ReplyDeleteToday was so eventful!! I woke up and last night it forgot to pack my bags for Maine. So this morning I packed my bags and went to church. Right after church we went to Amelya's baby shower even though the baby was already born. After that Grandma, Nate, and I went to Maine. We met my dad, Colleen, and my two sisters there. All of us just played basketball and rode bikes for the rest of the night. Today was a lot of fun and I'm sooo excited to see what tomorrow brings! Good job with your habits guys!
ReplyDeleteToday went pretty well for me.
ReplyDeleteI woke up around 9:00 and had breakfast. Then I got changed and left the house at around 10:30 and walked around the stores in Edgartown. Then we went back to the house and took a break/had lunch, then went back out to Oak Bluffs. I got coffee ice cream and it was really good, but allergies are preventing me from having fun. At around 6:00 we came back and at 7:00 we had dinner, so I had successfully avoided my habit for more than a few hours. Right now I'm lying in bed trying to will myself to feel better because my head feels like it's about to explode. Anyways, my 'like' habit has been doing pretty well, some bumps in the road but going smoothly. I said it here and there but stopped myself a few times, so I feel like I'm making progress. This project has really changed my schedule for the better and I hope to continue this habit project.
I hope everyone has a great Memorial Day!
Henno! Last night was good! During the day I watched this 1961 movie and surprisingly I liked it. Then after the movie I went upstairs and took a shower and went to Dicks and then Lowes. After that I came home watched like 15 min of tv. Got changed and went to this fancy restaurant. It was ok but I think the restaurant was too fancy for me. Then when I came home I was soo full I went upstairs and read some of my book. Then went downstairs and watched tv with my grandparents. Then went upstairs and fell asleep early at around 9:40.
ReplyDeleteYesterday went really well. When I woke up at around 8:30 I went downstairs. I didn't have my phone upstairs so I went right down. I like this a lot better than staying on my phone for like an hour and not being lazy. When I went down my family was watching tv so I sat and ate breakfast with them as we were watching. Then my mom had to go into work so it was just the rest of us hanging out. I put Scrubs on on Netflix on my tv and we ended up watching WAY too many episodes. its really hard to stop watching when the next episode just plays for you! Then it was time for my sister and me to get ready for the movies. My mom met Emily and me at the theater and we saw Pitch Perfect 2. I thought It was funny but not as good as the first one. Then we got home and we ended up just being lazy. I guess Saturday was my lazy day but I did more today and I will do more tomorrow. I think I will probably continue this project but maybe just on the weekends I will allow myself to have my phone in bed. Its always nice to watch Netflix before bed. Great job with this project everyone!!
ReplyDeleteDoing this blog I have to admit it was fun, at first I thought it was going to be boring and etc.but as time went on I realized I was wrong. Ik most of us are happy this 14 days are over but this 14 days taught us what to do with time, and we have learned so much about ourselves and eight grade is almost over and doing this project will help us a lot in high school. Doing this project I learned if u want to acomplish something u really want to acomplish put Time and effort in it and believe in urself that u can do it .good job guys I'm proud of y'all .class of 2015😀😀✌
ReplyDeleteToday was a step forward for me on terms of doing my homework and getting it out of the way. I went to church in the morning, then I had to help my dad with some yard work so I could got fishing with my brother. As soon as I got home I did most of my homework so I could watch the NBA playoffs and enjoy my Memorial Day tomorrow. Have a good weekend everyone.
ReplyDeleteYesterday was overall a quality day. Cracking my knuckles was not a problem whatsoever. I started reading this new book that I'm completely immersed in. I'm even reading it with a friend to motivate myself to keep reading instead of being on my phone. Last night my phone charger wasn't working, so I could not use my phone after 9 even if I wanted to, which I didn't.
ReplyDeleteWow! Is this project really over? I have had so many different feelings about giving up my habits. Temptation, willpower, trepidation, fulfillment, and so many others have combined to teach me a lot about myself and my routine. So glad I did this project! Hope everyone learned about themselves and took the first step in successfully defeating their bad habit!
Yesterday I ended up finding something to do that kept me away from my triggers. My neighbors had a barbecue across the street and I joined the party. There was about 15 other guys my age that came from out of town and we played football and then manhunt later on with more kids from the neighborhood. The whole day I didn't even think about napping for the first time during the project. This project has shown me that there are so many other things you can do to have fun outside of the house. I've made more friends and have been more excited for things to do when I get home. This project has also shown my strength to not do my habit. I plan to keep the same routine after this project into the summer and next year.
ReplyDeleteYesterday was not good. I slept over my brothers house and my nephews had the TV on so I decided to watch TV. The next morning my nephew woke me up so we just talked and woke up his brother. We had waffles for breakfast and we went back to watching TV. I didn't really watch that much TV I avoided it a little bit by playing games on my phone and on my DSI. I got a text from my sister and she told me that we were going to have a little girls day so I went home and got read. We went to the mall and had frozen yogurt and walked around the mall and checked out clothes. I got a cute skirt and so did my sister. I got bored of the mall so we went to see my mom at work. We talked to her a little before she went to work and my mom wanted me to see one of the sisters. The sister told me that she was proud of me for getting into Notre Dame Academy and how lucky I was. We talked for a long time but I had to tell her I had to leave. So I gave my mom a hug and I left. My sister had to go to Payless to see her mom. We left the store and she dropped me home. I told her that I had a really good time and she told me that anytime you want to hang out just send me a text so I did. I gave her a big hug and I told her that I loved her so much. I got home and I texted my brother that I wanted to sleep over he told me that he would come in a little bit. I got ready and my mom shows up and I ran to her and gave her a hug. I texted my brother at 10;15 and told him that I don't want to sleep over anymore I'll just stay home so he said ok. I watched TV for 5 minutes and searched up two movies The Fault in Our Stars and Fast &Furious 6. The Fault in Our Stars was coming on at 10:30 so I immediately took my TV and plugged it it my room and cleaned my room a little bit before it started. I asked my mom if I can have popcorn in my room she said ok but don't make a mess. I watched the movie I cried it was a great movie. I turn off the TV and people were texting me so I got annoyed and I put my phone on silent. I watched to much TV last night and in the morning but I'm going to try really hard not to watch to much Tv after this habit project. I really enjoyed this project it has helped me a lot during the 2 weeks.
ReplyDeleteIt was a god day yesterday. So after waking up, I watched some tv and ate breakfast. Then at 12:30 I got dressed and we left for a barbecue at my aunts house. We stayed there till 4 and it was pretty enjoyable. I didn't start playing till 7 though and I played till 12, which is at my 4-5 hour mark. Though it wasn't a complete 5 hours because I did take breaks in my time. Overall, it was a good day
ReplyDeleteYesterday I got up for mass at 7:00 in Webster. After mass we went to breakfast at the Main Cafe and I got an egg,toast,and a muffin. That was a pretty healthy breakfast but it overstuffed me. Then we went down to my summer house and I raked leaves with my mom for about two hours until we stopped to eat lunch. After lunch, Declan and I played baseball, soccer and basketball. Then we raked leaves for two more hours. When everything was done Declan, my mom, and I went home and showered and played with Picasso. Declan and I played call of duty until our dad came home and then we went to Wrights Chicken farm with my aunt and uncle. I had water and tried to fill up with mostly salad. I had a small piece of chicken on only about three fries and they didn't have any salt. I had a little pasta and wanted to get more fries and have a second but I didn't let myself. After that we went to Madulkas and I got a small mint Oreo which was delicious and I didn't feel guilty about getting it because I worked all day and everyone had ice cream on Saturday except me. I didn't bite my cheek at all again. I liked this project and I am going to continue it to get rid of my snacking and make sure my habit doesn't come back.
ReplyDeleteOh the last day, it feels like it has gone by so fast. So today was good, so far i have only played an hour and a half of video games and I have probably only used my phone for an hour. That is good so far because i decided to play no more than 3 hours on no school, days which i liked because i seem to have more time to do other stuff. I havent done too much yet today because i havent felt so good, but whatever. With what i have wanted to accomplish with this project i have. I feel like i will continue it but not do it as i have done, so i will probably give my self a little more leeway than i have. Well i learned a ot from this project and i hope i keep learning more about myself.
ReplyDeleteWait I'm so confused are there two blogs for Friday
ReplyDeleteNo I think he just posted both days on Friday
DeleteOk sorry I'm late I had a busy day yesterday and today. So yesterday was fun I woke up and went on my iPod but not for that long. Then I just hung around with sophia and talked to my dad and cousin which was fun. Me and sophia fooled around with water. Then my grandma and grandpa came over for supper. I went on my iPod after they left which was between 8 and 9. This project was fun and I think I will continue with it. The only thing I will probally change is what time Im going to allow myself to stop doing something productive. It was really fun and I liked it. It gave me a reason to do things I wanted to do. I got to work out and much more. If I had to do it again I might add or change the habit. I would change it to when Im not doing something productive I should work out. That way I will always have something to do and a reason to do it. Thank you mr. Philips for doing this and I hope everyone had fun and continues if they want.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, we didn't end up ending the weekend on the best note. We were seeded 9th which kept us out of the race for the gold trophy. We competed in the sliver. We lost today a tough game 11-4. We had some mistakes but it was a good learning game. Now I know what it takes to compete at a higher level team and I'm excited for it
ReplyDeleteYesterday i woke up at 8:00am and thats pretty late because i usually wake up at 6am and so anyways i got ready for school and my dad drove me. i realized that i forgot my lunch so my dad drove me to dunkins and i got food. igot to school at 9:10. i ended school at 3:00 and left. After school i walk to my friends how and said hi because she was sick. and i left 5 minutes later because her house was on the way. i got to the boys and girls club at 3:15. once i got to the boys and girls club i went into the locker room and changed into my work out clothes. Right after i was done i went up to the boxing room with my friend Lilly and Rachel and we used the equipment up there for an hour. at around 4:30 we went into the gym and played ball my two friends had to leave and right when they left my best friend came and we played one on one. after we went to his came at crystal park. and then after i went home. and took a shower and went to bed. this turned out as a great project because i didnt do my bad habit once.
ReplyDeleteMy allergies got pretty bad at Lake Garfield while I was canoeing and fishing with my brother. My brother caught one pickerel and if you don't know what pickerel are they are not sharp on the outside but they have a hell of a bite. I know from personal experience. We also caught bass and 5 beautiful trout. We cleaned them and put them in the freezer to eat the next time we go to the lake. This is the last time that we are blogging about this report. So good job everyone.
