Order - Very very very very bad at this recently. All of my grades have fallen, by daily schedule is a mess, and things are just not as they aught to be right now.

Resolution - Also terrible at this. I've made terrible grades recently, and I find myself starting work, telling myself I'm taking a break, and then spending all night doing nothing until like 2:00 A.M. by which point I reckon I should be asleep, because I'm too groggy to do work by that point anyway.

Silence - I don't really even consider this a virtue. He describes it a little differently than is the typical usage of the word; "Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself; avoid trifling conversation."but still. I tend to dislike conversation for conversation's sake, but listing silence as a virtue seems to imply some kind of solemn duty to pipe down when there are things you need to speak up about.

Frugality - Oh, I am very frugal in that I do not buy anything ever. I've got two hundred dollars saved up from birthdays, Christmas, and a generous donation from my grand mother and father, and I just don't want to spend it on anything.

Sincerity - I've been working on this and haven't been entirely successful. I still embellish stories about myself and my past, though no nearly to the extent that I used to. Still, I need to work towards complete honesty.

Chastity - Rather sadly, I am great at this.

Moderation - Extreme is relative.
