I think this quote means that your surroundings and the ones who surround you can change your character. For example, if you hang around friends that don't try to better themselves, chances are you'll behave in a similar manner. Some invironments offer less oppertunities than others. A drug infested invironment will incourage the younger members of the community to sell drugs because thats what they grew up seeing. Most friends incourage you to be like them, but if they commit negative actions constantly they'll want you to do it with them. Positive environmental surroundings will in turn affect you positively. this my opinion on this quote. Joshua Bishop - 9th period
- I think what this quote is statinq that your surroundinq and the people you interact determines your character . Like some environments where you live or visit maybe violent and it may rub off on you to be the same . Also , sometimes the people you hanq around can determine your behavior . Like for example if you hanq with the wronq crowd of people and they're doinq thinqs that there not suppose to your more then likely qoinq to follow them . That's why I think it's veryy important that you choose wisely on the environment you live in and the people you hanq around . Because positive surroundinqs and people will qive you qreat outcomes... - Shania_Simonè [ Period 2 )!
To me, I think this quote means, be careful of your surroundings. Everyone is not your friend. You could easily get caught up with something and it may be hard to get out. Which that could stick with you for the rest of your life. Just because you may be in a bad environment, doesn't necessarily mean that you have to be like them. Sometimes you should be the bigger person and be yourself, because it is not worth trying to be like someone that is not making anything of their life. In conclusion, this is what this quote means to me.
I believe this quote is saying that who ever we associate ourselves with, or how our life styles are... its likely that we will begin to catch those same habits ! For example, if you associate with a fool, you will become just like them , but if interact with wise people you will gain more respect...but also you will gain the same characteristics ! Who ever we choose to hang around.. we should make sure that who ever we hang out with has good qualities about their selves.
I totally agree on this quote. What it's basically saying is the people you hang around you will start to act just like them. You should choose your friends wisely because if they're bad and rambunctous you will start to pick up their bad habits and act just like them. Don't pick any and everyone to be your friend. Everyone is not a good ro-model to yourself. Make sure you dont take in bad doings it can start to rub off on you. That's what i think this quote means to me.
'This quote is simply saying your surroundings can change you in many ways. Many people don't even recognize they've changed. People have let their surroundings build them up to where they are today. Like if you surround yourself with criminals ,your most likely to be a criminal as well. This is why you should be very precocious when choosing friends. However you can put yourself with a group of positive people and change for the better. Your surroundings represent you!
In my opinion I think that this quote is trying to portray that decsions are important. I say this because, once decided the type of enviorment that pleases you the most, will determine the rest of your life. If choosen to hang with a positive crew then our life will be affected in a positive manner. If choosen to hang with a crew filled with drama, then your life will too be filled with drama. The same goes for the type of enviorment chosen to live in. If a person chooses to live in a barbaric neighborhood then they will be determined to act in such a manner. I just say be carful who choose to hang with and where you live. It will all effect your life in the end. -Jalaya Bryant 1st hr
I BELIEVE THIS MEANS THAT YOUR ENVIRONMENT WILL DETERMINE YOUR LIFE. IT ALSO MEANS THAT WE SOMETIMES COPIES THOSE WHO ARE OUR FRIENDS EVEN WHEN THEY ARE DOING WRONG. IF YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY NEGATIVE PEOPLE EVERY DAY, YOU WILL PROBABLY BE A NEGATIVE PERSON.IT IS A GOOD IDEA TO BE FRIENDS WITH POSTIVE PEOPLE WHO WILL TELL YOU RIGHT FROM WRONG. ALSO, WHEN OTHERS SEE YOU DOING POSTIVE THINGS AND BEING PRAISED, THEY WILL TRY A LITTLE HARDER TO DO RIGHT.
i think this quote is statinq that the people you surround yourself with determines how you act and who you are. For example if you have with a group of kids that are quite keep to themselves and not really outspoken then you are that same way. You wouldnt hang with people if y'all dont like that same things. Once you start hanging with someone you start to pick up their habits or their way of doing thing you know. Like for example I have a friend who was really quite and didnt speak up for herself , but she start hanging out with me and now she seems to speak up and heard. Also, i believe this is saying that sometimes your background or where you live can SOMETIMES determine how you act or come off. Thats what i think this quote means.
I think this quote is stating that you are what you surround yourself with.If you hang around a group of negative kids that have nothing going for themselves chances are their ways will rub off on you.Also your environment have a huge empact on your life.For example if you grow up seeing people robbing others for money or selling and doing drugs then you will most likey do the same if you are not strong minded.My reasons for saying that is,because since you grew up around it you wouldnt know any other way of living since you seen it for so long.With that being said,that is my opinion on what I believe this quote is saying.
This quote means to me the people you hang around influence your behavior. Whether it is good or bad. It is a big decision in picking the people you hang around. It can affect the rest of your life. That is why you should pick your friendd wisely.
I think this quote is saying that the people you choose to hang around are the ones you will eventually turn out to be like in the future. Not everyone is you friend. That was something I had to figure out the hard way. What I also figured out was that you have to pick your friends wisely. When you do that you will be a more positive person if you are not one now. Friends is a very difficult topic to get on because you have to pick them wisely and be careful not to end up too much like them. Your friends are going to be the ones who are either guide you on the right path or the wrong path. Now that we are in high school we have to be strong minded and choose the right people to associate yourself with especially around this time of your life. That's why picking your friends is so important to what kind of lifestyle you will have growing up.
This quote means to me that you should try to be surrounded by good influences and not by people who will try to lead you down a bad path. That you should try to stay away from people that are no good. You should stay away from people that will affect the way you live. like if someone in class tells you to do something that is not right you should stay away from them. So that is what this quote means to me.
Bad environment,bad attitude,wrong actions. This is what to come from being around the wrong people. If you surround yourself by positive people, you will get positive results. If you want a great future, build a great a present. You should stay away from people that will affect your life in the wrong way, but people who do wonders for your life by just being around them, should definetly maintain a spot in your phone. In other words stay away from people who affect you in the wrong way. Thats what this means to me.
This quote to me means similar to this bible quote I know: "you deny me in front of your friends and I will deny you in front off my father." It also shows that the saying practice makes perfect is true. When you practice something so much eventually you'll master it. Not being yourself will not only makes you a lie but everything you say after that moment will be false to the ones that really loved you. Sometimes when you in the stage of pretending you forget who you actually are. I say its better to just be yourself instead of portraying a character that you aren't even fit for. All I have to say is being yourself will show you who your real friends are.
to me this qoute is saying that we only have one chance to make a good impression. Everything we do will effect us either sooner or later. The people we are around can change us without us even knowing. The places we go will effect us , whether good or bad. Bottom line is , we need to be careful who we hang out with and where we hang out with them. Its better for us to be ourselves and be lame , then try to to fit in and lose ourselves to be cool. - Victoria Hinton - d--b Period o9
-This quote means to me that the environment that you hang around could not be good at times. People around you can really have an affect on your life. Friends you choose can also determine your life. First impressions last forever with people and if you have a bad impression that is how people will take upon you. I think people should live in a positive environment so negative things won't happen to them. Don't be so quick to hang with the IN crowd because its not all it's cracked up to be.This is exactly why I have a minimum of friends now. *Endya Holland* -P. 3
This quote means to me that you should stay away from people that will lead you the wrong way. That you should pick your friends more wisely. this quote also means not to me not to hang out with people who will tell you to do something that you know you should not do.That you should try to be a leader and not follower.So That is what this quote means to me.
This quote means to me that not every one is not your friend.so you should you should pick your friends more wisely.TO me you should not hang out with people who are not good. That you should try to be a leader.this also means that if someone tells you to do some thing you would not want your mom to see you do then not to do it. So That is what this quote means to me.
I completley agree with qoute , because it is pretty much a golden rule in life. We shouldn't let things or people determine who we are . However it happens all day long and to most of us. We should be mature enough to be careful who we associate ourselves with . For when the time comes when its time to recognize ourselves , what then will we say ; if the whole time we are replicating someone else. As the old saying goes " Tell me who your friends are and I'll tell you who you are" ... Be mindful of the company you keep , simply because everyone does not keep our best intrest .
I think this quote mean that you have to watch your surrounding at all times. Some people that you think are your friend are really not. I think that this mean watch who you hang around because everybody is not who you think that they are.I also think that this mean that if you hang around bad people you will slowly start to become like them.
This quote means whatever enviornment you are in you will become more like it. If people in your enviornment steal and kill, you will begin to do those things as well. If your enviornment are intelligent, that is you will become. You have to hang out with the right kind of people. You can't pick friends who get into trouble and care about others around them. You can also become like that if you hang around them enough. Becareful on how you your friends and the places you go. Jonathan Nunn Period 1
This quote is saying be aware of your surroundings. The environment you are around will influence you. You will follow the behavior within that environment. If you are in a good environment, you will make good and healthy decisions for yourself. If you are in a bad environment, you will make the same bad decisions. The same goes for friends. Friends can make you or brake you so you be careful who you associate yourself with.
I think this quote is saying be careful who you hang around. I think it is very important to watch the people you hang around because they reflect you and the type of person you are. Some places and some people are really bad influences. You need to find out who your real friends are and if they are the people you need and want to be around you for the rest of your life! This quote is also saying watch who you hang out with because you can end up just like them. If your friends are doing the right think then that can influence you to do the right thing. Good friends and good influences lead to good things!
This qoute has a very strong and confusing meaning. It grabs ones attention quit well. I personally believe this quote means you have total control over your life. Which includes your lifestyle and who you decide to befriend. Whatever decisions you make in your life follows you forever. You will start adapting to the environment you surround yourself around, so be very careful. Also, the people you allow into your life will rub off on you so keep positive people around you at all times, because negativity gets you nowhere. Basically be very cautions of your life and the decision you make. -Khandyz Lee -period 1*
This quote means to me if you live in a bad environment you will be shaped as a bad person because of the environment you are in. If you live in a good environment you will be shaped as a good person. My used to tell me in high school you are going to make a lot of friends. But you will only have 1 or 2 friends that will stick by your side when the going get tough. If you hang around bad kids sooner or later you'll be just like them. That's why you have to be careful who your friends are and not try to fit in all the time. So be careful who you hang around because everybody is not your friend. -thomasc. campbell -period2
I believe this quote means that where you live influences how you act. If you live in a ghetto area then your bound to act ghetto. If you live in a stuck up society, then your bound to act stuck up. That's kind of true. Also, if your friends that you hang around with on the daily basis is doing inappropriate things , and your with them, then your bound to join in with them. I believe that this part of the quote is saying that your friends have the power to influence you. Whether its a positive way or a negative way. I believe this to be true.
I think this quote is based off ones social or personal lifestyle. I think it means to choose the right friends to be with. The more you hang out with them, you become like them. I you have a friend that steals, most likely you will to. You should be with smart people so it can rub off on you in a intelligent way. If you choose to be in a bad neighborhood, you will get use to it and it will play a part in your life. Choose the right things for your life. - James Taylor (period 3)
This quote is saying that you will always be effected by your choices so choose wisely. You shouldn't surround yourself by people who are going to bring you down. You should be careful when you are choosing your friends. Also you shouldn't consider everyone you meet your friend. You also shouldn't put yourself in an area that can become hazardous to you and your family. If you know you aren't living in the best area then you should try to relocate. If you are in a bad area you can sometimes find yourself caught up doing the wrong things. -Dana Hudson -Period 1
I believe that this quote is saying that when choosing friends make sure you know who they really are because what you don’t know might affect you. By saying this I mean find out who the people you are considering to be your friends are before actually claiming yourself as their friend. Find out things such as what they have done in the past and what they are doing in the present and how do their actions represent them. Is it in a positive way or in a negative way? Because if it’s in a negative way that causes them to have certain names or perceptions of themselves then you should then make the choice of is this the type of person or people I want to be classified with , and if not then chose to keep it moving. But I also understand that you might want to give them a chance , but by doing that you might actually get a bad reputation for yourself , and in that case yourself is more important than anything or anybody else , because once you have a bad reputation there’s no way to get it back , and is that a risk your willing to take? Because it’s the old saying goes birds of a feather flock together and when you start hanging with people with bad reputations people are going to automatically think that whatever they do you do the same and have the same reputation they do even if you don’t and this will start making people say you do which will cause you to be known as a girl with a bad reputation even if you don’t actually have one because of who you are associated with. Also when you start hanging around a group of a certain type of people some of their ways rub off on you and start to change you. And right along with choosing your friends carefully you must chose your environment carefully because your environment represents who you are , and it can change you just like friends can. Because you are a product of your environment. So choose an environment that will best develop you towards your objective, goals, and dreams in life . By doing this the way to start would be by analyzing the environment you are in now and ask yourself are the things around you helping towards success or are they turning you in the opposite direction by holding you back. These are the questions you need to ask yourself in order to stay on top towards success and not to trash your name and reputation because once it’s gone is gone. So with saying that I believe that the key part to life is analyzing everything from people to places , just analyze everything before you make any decision because it will help us in the long run as a whole . So think before you do and observe before you decide so you will have the upper hand in life and so things won’t have to be so complicated but just easy enough to get you to where you’re heading! -Kennedee Gardner☆ -Period 1♥
This quote means to me that your friends or your surroundings make you who you are. So make wise decisions as to the person that you want to be. The place and the people you start to associate yourself with will make you who you want to be. It won't so much make you who you are because some environments shape you into what you're not. Make sure you are wise about your crowd. Also, don't let it make you into something you're not. Be awar of the things you put yourself into.
I believe that this quote is stating that people can be influenced by their surroundings. If you live in a bad neighborhood where bad things are being exposed you will get introduced to those things and begin to do the same. Your surroundings play a big role in how you display yourself. A person from a more hardcore area, nine times out of ten will have a more rough edged and hardcore disposition about themselves. Also vice versa with a more wealthy person. Your peers are a big factor in how people act. If your friends are getting in trouble and failing in life, unless your are have a lot of selfsuffiency then you will do the same.
I think this quote is tryinq to portray that the things you surround your self around determines who you are. The people that you surround yourself around determines who you are. The quote "birds of a feather flocl together",I think, is a perfect example. Once you decide where you want to spend your life determines your life. The things you surround you self with can be either good or bad. Depending on the decisions you make. The people you choose to hang with also reflects who you are. For example, if you hang around a person who has a bad attitude,people will assume you have one too.
What this quote means to me is your surroundings and the people you associate yourself with can have an affect on your life. I feel that you shouldn't hang with the popular kids. I feel that the best thing to do in life is to just be yourself. This is helpful because you may be called lame now but doing what is required in life will bless you. However, you are in your surroundings you will act the same way in life. Whether you have a good or bad surrounding you should always try your best to make yourself presentable to others. Don't hang around the bad crowd because they could have an affect on your life that will be with you forever.
I think this quote is trying to say that the people you hang with you will become to act like them. Whether it is a positive change or a negative change. People tend to rub off on eachother. Be carefull what enviroment you choose to be around because it can and will change who you are too. When your enviroment is just about gangs and violence this is who you can become. Or if it is a good influence like doing community service. Or it can juss be doing something good dailyy around your comunity. -Tenaytia Sanford P1
i thinks this quote is saying that you must watch the company you keep ! being around negativity can change you tremendously and make you a negative person. If you hang with people who are dis respectful and always fighting and getting in trouble you will start imitating the bad behavior that they bring about. If you hang with people who are on the honor roll and are kind, polite, and respectful i guarantee that you will be a better person. you will not get into as much trouble. so on that note all i am trying to stress is that you are who you hang with and if you want to be a better person in life then you will not hang around the people who will form you to do your worst ! -andrea blue 3rd period !
I think this quote means that your surroundings and the ones who surround you can change your character. For example, if you hang around friends that don't try to better themselves, chances are you'll behave in a similar manner. Some invironments offer less oppertunities than others. A drug infested invironment will incourage the younger members of the community to sell drugs because thats what they grew up seeing. Most friends incourage you to be like them, but if they commit negative actions constantly they'll want you to do it with them.

ReplyDeleteThis qoute has a very strong and confusing meaning. It grabs ones attention quit well. I personally believe this quote means you have total control over your life. Which includes your lifestyle and who you decide to befriend. Whatever decisions you make in your life follows you forever. You will start adapting to the environment you surround yourself around, so be very careful. Also, the people you allow into your life will rub off on you so keep positive people around you at all times, because negativity gets you nowhere. Basically be very cautions of your life and the decision you make.

This quote means to me if you live in a bad environment you will be shaped as a bad person because of the environment you are in. If you live in a good environment you will be shaped as a good person. My used to tell me in high school you are going to make a lot of friends. But you will only have 1 or 2 friends that will stick by your side when the going get tough. If you hang around bad kids sooner or later you'll be just like them. That's why you have to be careful who your friends are and not try to fit in all the time. So be careful who you hang around because everybody is not your friend.

I believe this quote means that where you live influences how you act. If you live in a ghetto area then your bound to act ghetto. If you live in a stuck up society, then your bound to act stuck up. That's kind of true. Also, if your friends that you hang around with on the daily basis is doing inappropriate things , and your with them, then your bound to join in with them. I believe that this part of the quote is saying that your friends have the power to influence you. Whether its a positive way or a negative way. I believe this to be true.

I think this quote is based off ones social or personal lifestyle. I think it means to choose the right friends to be with. The more you hang out with them, you become like them. I you have a friend that steals, most likely you will to. You should be with smart people so it can rub off on you in a intelligent way. If you choose to be in a bad neighborhood, you will get use to it and it will play a part in your life. Choose the right things for your life.

ReplyDeleteThis quote is saying that you will always be effected by your choices so choose wisely. You shouldn't surround yourself by people who are going to bring you down. You should be careful when you are choosing your friends. Also you shouldn't consider everyone you meet your friend. You also shouldn't put yourself in an area that can become hazardous to you and your family. If you know you aren't living in the best area then you should try to relocate. If you are in a bad area you can sometimes find yourself caught up doing the wrong things.

I believe that this quote is saying that when choosing friends make sure you know who they really are because what you don’t know might affect you. By saying this I mean find out who the people you are considering to be your friends are before actually claiming yourself as their friend. Find out things such as what they have done in the past and what they are doing in the present and how do their actions represent them. Is it in a positive way or in a negative way? Because if it’s in a negative way that causes them to have certain names or perceptions of themselves then you should then make the choice of is this the type of person or people I want to be classified with , and if not then chose to keep it moving. But I also understand that you might want to give them a chance , but by doing that you might actually get a bad reputation for yourself , and in that case yourself is more important than anything or anybody else , because once you have a bad reputation there’s no way to get it back , and is that a risk your willing to take? Because it’s the old saying goes birds of a feather flock together and when you start hanging with people with bad reputations people are going to automatically think that whatever they do you do the same and have the same reputation they do even if you don’t and this will start making people say you do which will cause you to be known as a girl with a bad reputation even if you don’t actually have one because of who you are associated with. Also when you start hanging around a group of a certain type of people some of their ways rub off on you and start to change you. And right along with choosing your friends carefully you must chose your environment carefully because your environment represents who you are , and it can change you just like friends can. Because you are a product of your environment. So choose an environment that will best develop you towards your objective, goals, and dreams in life . By doing this the way to start would be by analyzing the environment you are in now and ask yourself are the things around you helping towards success or are they turning you in the opposite direction by holding you back. These are the questions you need to ask yourself in order to stay on top towards success and not to trash your name and reputation because once it’s gone is gone. So with saying that I believe that the key part to life is analyzing everything from people to places , just analyze everything before you make any decision because it will help us in the long run as a whole . So think before you do and observe before you decide so you will have the upper hand in life and so things won’t have to be so complicated but just easy enough to get you to where you’re heading!

This quote means to me that your friends or your surroundings make you who you are. So make wise decisions as to the person that you want to be. The place and the people you start to associate yourself with will make you who you want to be. It won't so much make you who you are because some environments shape you into what you're not. Make sure you are wise about your crowd. Also, don't let it make you into something you're not. Be awar of the things you put yourself into.

I believe that this quote is stating that people can be influenced by their surroundings. If you live in a bad neighborhood where bad things are being exposed you will get introduced to those things and begin to do the same. Your surroundings play a big role in how you display yourself. A person from a more hardcore area, nine times out of ten will have a more rough edged and hardcore disposition about themselves. Also vice versa with a more wealthy person. Your peers are a big factor in how people act. If your friends are getting in trouble and failing in life, unless your are have a lot of selfsuffiency then you will do the same.
ReplyDeleteI think this quote is tryinq to portray that the things you surround your self around determines who you are. The people that you surround yourself around determines who you are. The quote "birds of a feather flocl together",I think, is a perfect example. Once you decide where you want to spend your life determines your life. The things you surround you self with can be either good or bad. Depending on the decisions you make. The people you choose to hang with also reflects who you are. For example, if you hang around a person who has a bad attitude,people will assume you have one too.
ReplyDeleteWhat this quote means to me is your surroundings and the people you associate yourself with can have an affect on your life. I feel that you shouldn't hang with the popular kids. I feel that the best thing to do in life is to just be yourself. This is helpful because you may be called lame now but doing what is required in life will bless you. However, you are in your surroundings you will act the same way in life. Whether you have a good or bad surrounding you should always try your best to make yourself presentable to others. Don't hang around the bad crowd because they could have an affect on your life that will be with you forever.

I think this quote is trying to say that the people you hang with you will become to act like them. Whether it is a positive change or a negative change. People tend to rub off on eachother. Be carefull what enviroment you choose to be around because it can and will change who you are too. When your enviroment is just about gangs and violence this is who you can become. Or if it is a good influence like doing community service. Or it can juss be doing something good dailyy around your comunity.

i thinks this quote is saying that you must watch the company you keep ! being around negativity can change you tremendously and make you a negative person. If you hang with people who are dis respectful and always fighting and getting in trouble you will start imitating the bad behavior that they bring about. If you hang with people who are on the honor roll and are kind, polite, and respectful i guarantee that you will be a better person. you will not get into as much trouble. so on that note all i am trying to stress is that you are who you hang with and if you want to be a better person in life then you will not hang around the people who will form you to do your worst !
