CAREY & CANN0N?

Mariah Carey and rapper Nick Cannon have tied the knot in a "very impulsive" ceremony in the Bahamas, it was reported Thursday.

Who even knew these two were dating? Definitely not me. I didn't even believe the news when i heard it. I read an article that says they met in March when Nick was directing the video for Mariahs BRAND NEW single "Bye Bye." Which mean they were ating for about a month? Mariahs 38 and Nicks 27. I think its just a publicity stunt. I give it five months, tops.

HiGH SCH00l DAYCARE SERViCES

Should high schools provide day-care services for teenage parents? Why or why not?

In my opinion, high school should provide day-care service for teenage parents. A big percent of abortions happen because teenagers know having a baby will "ruin their lives" because they will have to drop out of school. If the teenage parent has nobody helping them with the child its very hard to find a consistent babysitter. By high schools providing day care its giving the teenage parent a chance at keeping their life in order and staying in school.

What's the one tradition you'd get rid of? Would you stop celebrating Thanksgiving? Would you put an end to the Super Bowl? Would you stop making people swear on a Bible when they stood in a courtroom? More importantly, why would you ditch THAT particular tradition?


I would definitely stop making people swear on the bible in the court room. Religion isn't as important to people as it used to be. There are so many people that don't believe in god and could care less about the bible so swearing on it means nothing to them. Also, people that DO believe in god are still swearing on the bible and lying. In my opinion, its just pointless because people are going to lie to keep themselves out of trouble no matter what.

Is it better to have brothers and sisters than to be an only child? Explain.

I think my personal situation is perfect. I was an only child for twelve years of my life so of course, like almost all only children, i was spoiled. I got anything and everything i wanted for those twelve years. Then my mom had a baby [Nick who is now 9] and thhhhen she had Christopher who is now 2. I know its weird, my mom having kids at her age but i think it will benefit for me when i get older. Its good to have a lot of family because you know someone always has your back and you can always go to your siblings for that. Also, when we all move out and have our own families it makes holidays that much better having alot of people to get together with who mean so much to you.

It has been said that computers are taking over our lives. Do you agree or disagree? Explain

I definitely agree. We just got done talking about this subject in class. Its come to a point where people are relying on computers for everything. From homework, to shopping, to even ordering pizza. I cant even really criticize anyone for being on the computer for hours, because i am guilty myself. Not so much in the summer but in times like the winter, i can spend hours sitting on the computer just clicking around. Ive never really bought anything from the computer but i am also guilty of online banking. Its so much easier to just click a couple times then to fill out a check or go get a money order to pay bills. =]

ENGL 152?

So, ENGL 151's - are you ready for ENGL 152? Is there anything you'd like to know specifically about what the next class will entail? And what would you like to work on to prep you for the next round?

I'm actually just focusing on getting a certificate for right now, which doesn't require a ENGL 152 class. So personally, I'm just trying to get through this class as painless as possible. I might choose to come back to school later and focus on an associates degree [which i know is a stupid idea] but I'm still confused about what i want to do.

Should all college students be required to buy or rent a computer? Why or why not?

Definitely not. Most colleges, even O.C.C ;) have a computer lab with hours posted of when its not in use for students convenience. Most families in America have a computer in their homes now-a-days, but if not, Students are already spending enough money on tuition and books. Computers are not a cheap thing to buy which is why the labs in the colleges are offered. Even if there wasn't labs, students could always drive to their local library and complete any work assigned, without buying their own computers.
