CAREY & CANN0N?
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.

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.

SiBliNGSS
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.
C0MPUTERS TAKiNG 0VER
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?
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.

BUYiNG & RENTiNG C0MPUTERS
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.
lEGAliZiNG MARiJUANA*
What do you think would be the consequences of the legalization of marijuana? Explain.
There would definitely be more high school students dropping out of school. Marijuana cant kill anyone but when teenagers are getting high they care about things alot less. Theres already enough people getting high everyday, and MOST [not all] of those people have no goals in life and don't end up moving on to college. I personally have a few friends that have dropped out of high school and wake up to "wake and bake." Nothing good could come out of legalizing pot, its already bad enough.

TEACHER
I had a great relationship with my junior & senior year art teacher, Mrs. Swenson. We got along so good because shes the most understanding person I've ever met. I could tell her my whole life story and she wouldn't judge me for one minute. She helps as many people as she can, and she the type of person where you just know shes sincere. She does more then just listens, she actually cares and helps anyone with anything!

R.i.P WiNTER =]
No, i think a week is more then enough time. I usually hand in my papers on time, but this past weekend was my birthday so i forgot about doing my paper. That's my own fault. And i agree that people are probably handing in their papers late because they know how nice you are about it and they take advantage. The fact of the weather getting so nice is another huge distraction. Most students, including myself, need to realize that its our own grades we are effecting and start doing a better job of getting them in on time.

GAS PRiCES
I think things could go two ways. I think various stores would definitely stop racking in so much money. People would be spending ALL their money on gas that they would be spending less money in places like retail or grocery stores. OR, people may take up actually walking or taking a bike to places nearby. Another consequence of raising the gas price that high could also just make people STAY HOME instead of going out as much.

ESSAYS
I think it will be alot easier to write this essay. When we have one specific topic its sometimes hard to reach 700 words if your not interested in the topic. When we are given such a wide variety we can write about something were interested in, or know alot about. When your writing about a topic you pick theres no excuse to not be able to complete a full essay.

C0llEGE STUDENTS
This is an easy topic question for me because i stress out about everything. A college student is usually going to college to further their career and they want to get their classes finished as soon as possible. Because of this, some students are taking as many as 6 classes. Students, like myself, also have alot of bills to pay including car payments, insurance payments, credit bills, and maybe even their own rent. This means they have to juggle a part time job and a bunch of classes while still trying to make time for homework and friends. I cant complain too much because i have my family to help me out, but in general its not easy being a college student.

VACATi0NS
I would definitely rather take one longer vacation. Its more likely that if your going away for a longer time you can go somewhere like Jamaica or somewhere further away because you don't just go to a Caribbean for a short time. In February my family and I went to Florida as our vacation and we originally only booked the hotel for four days. After being there we decided to extend the vacation an extra four days because we were having too much of a good time. When you are finally able to get away you might as well enjoy it for the longest time possible.

JUNK F00D!
There are several reasons why Americans eat so much junk food. For one, the most obvious, is because unhealthy food tastes the best. Secondly, alot of people like myself are working and taking classes so theres not much time to sit home and eat, or be home for dinner. On Tuesdays for example, I go to school from 9:30 - 2 and then i have work from 6 - 12. I don't really have time to worry about eating, so ill just stop at a fast food place in between. Another reason Americans could be alcohol. Even people on diets eat like slobs when they've got a little alcohol in them =]
FUTURE OCCUPATi0NS
No. Students are paying for their education and they should be able to choose what they want to know more about. If a person is going to school for teaching and they want to take a class about graphic design or something out of the blue, its completely their choice. Its recommended that you stay to your major just so you can get through college and start your career but maybe all college students are in a huge rush. The returning student, in particular, who may already have a career and a family but wish to take a class or two just because is perfectly fine.
NEW Y0RK<3<3
I would absolutely love to live in a large city. I actually really want to live in Manhattan when i get older. There are alot of disadvantages such as terrorist, the transportation and the gangs, but there are alot of advantages also. I absolutely love being at Times Square. New York is the city that never sleeps and theres always something to do. Just seeing the people that are walking the streets is enough to change your life, and make you consider how much your taking everything you have for advantage. The clothing stores, and the night clubs there are amazing and alot of people can start off their real careers living there. Celebrities go to big cities all the time and whenever i go to New York i feel like I'm in a whole different world. Theres also a STARBUCKS on every corner =] =]

Eighth Assignment
I don't have much to say in the political race against one another. I was never into politics at all. But to answer your question I don't think our president completely represents us. First of all we cant pick anyone we want to be represented by, we have to pick someone that is verrrry wealthy and the people who are running are sometimes people we don't even like. We just have to settle on the few amount of people that are actually running for office. I think the people are being corrupted.

I know you have alot to do as a teacher but i wouldn't mind doing questions if you made them up =] I just find the ones in the book to be confusing, maybe I'm just stupid i don't know. I just felt like i didn't understand what they were asking. Or what would be even better would be writing a little summary of each story.

HAPPY EASTER!
My family used to all get together for Easter for a huge dinner, but this year its only me, my mom, step dad, and two little brothers. I woke up to an Easter basket that my mom insists on making me like I'm still 9 years old but i cant complain. =]
I finally started my new job on Friday. I'm working at a tanning salon and hopefully ill be able to save enough money to go to bartending school.
I need to clean my room now because its a disaster. I didn't realize how hard it would be for me for have a job, go to school, keep my room clean and find time for my friends I'm horrible at managing my time.

I do need to start working on my project though because I've been bed ridden for about 3 days so i haven't even been thinking about it. Just thought i should write in here before i got startedddddd.

SPRiNG BREAK!
I didn't do anything special for spring break this year, i was actually in bed for most of it. I did end up going to the St. Patricks day parade which was a good time, But my tooth starting hurting about 2 days ago so I went to the dentist. It turns out i either need a route canal in one of my molar teeth or I need to get it taken out. Its so bad my whole face has been swollen for about 2 days now. They gave me heavy medication so I've basically been sleeping alot. I even missed one of my best friends birthday dinners. =[
But, Ive also been taking antibiotics so its a little better today. Hopefully the swelling will go down tomorrow because i finally got a job interview. I guess well see what happens.

PARiS REAliTY?
"I'm looking for someone with loyalty and integrity that won't stab me in the back like so many do in this town, I want someone who will be like my sister; she really is my best friend."
Like i said in one of my older blogs i don't have anything against Paris but nobody is going out to see her movies so why would anyone watch a t.v show about her desperately trying to find a friend? The only thing anyone really wanted to buy was her sex video which is pathetic. She should stop trying to put out books, movies, song albums, and t.v shows because nothing is selling too well for her.

7th ASSiGNMENT
The thing I would change about the class is those questions we had to do which follow each story. They're worded all weird and they were hard for me to answer. I personally would rather write five essays rather then answer those confusing questions. I wouldn't be mad if i never had to look at them again ;)
I wouldn't change anything else. I don't mind reading at home, or talking about how we feel about the stories in class. I love projects like posters, and I don't so much mind writing essays.
The blog is a new thing for me and I like that it adds in for our grades. I'm on the computer all the time so its not an inconvenience. Ive been writing in it almost everyday and its just a way to discuss the way we feel about certain things like events that are going on or just the way our days went. I think more professors should start using blogger.

ANiMAl RESEARCH
Id hate to say it but i think medical research on animals is okay. If they're saving peoples lives by what is tested on animals then its something that needs to be done. On the other hand testing animals for stupid things like cosmetics or anything that cant save a human life is ridiculous. When it comes down to it and someone you know is really sick no one would pick an animals life over a loved one.

STRiKE
My opinion is NO. If police officers and fire fighters weren't around the world would be chaos. When filling one of these occupations you should know that it is illegal to strike so it shouldn't even be thought about. Its their job to keep people safe.
Once criminals caught wind of Police officers going on strike they would just plan their crimes to take place when they are striking.
As for firefighters i know from experience someone in my family could have been dead if firefighters were on strike. I had a house fire and by the firefighters putting it out i got to save at least some of my things.
Or lets say a huge forest fire broke out.. a whole town could be destroyed just because firefighters want to be paid more?
Hopefully the government would be about to work something out before firefighters and police even tried to go on strike.

"The man brandished the handgun but did not use it to hurt the attendant" Stoker said. I have a friend that lives on Stanton avenue and its scary to know that someone that a rob a store was walking around that neighborhood with a gun. They still haven't found the guy yet but they describe him as a white male, about 5 feet 8 inches tall, wearing a dark hoodie and pants with a white bandanna over his face from the nose down.
I think its pathetic to to rob someone trying to make a living pumping gas in ice cold weather but some people are ridiculous.

DANiTY KANE<3

Danity Kane is my favorite girl group right now. Each and every one of them can sing which is the most important thing. My favorite singer of the group is Aundrea. Their first album went platinum. I like every single song on their first album which is something i cant say about ANY other group.
I'm anticipating their new album which comes out on March 18Th! They also have a T.V show on MTV right now called making the band where they compete to finish their album before the other band and solo artist that Diddy put together.

RAND0M
Anyway, i started the rough draft of my essay i think its pretty humorous, hopefully ill do better on this paper then the last. My group came up with alot of rules which should make it easy to make it to 700 words.
I also just wanted to mention that I'm one of the people that watches "The Moment of Truth." I think its hilarious that someone would actually go on national television and completely ruin their marriage just for money. I think if you cheated on your husband and/or think you should be married to someone else and your willing to let the whole world that for money it doesn't just make you look pathetic, but very greedy.
SPEED liMiT?!
I don't know how effective this approach will be considering the speed limit is normally 65 and people are doing 80 on a regular basis. They are supposedly building shoulders and guardrails.I don't necessarily agree with the speed reduction, I think the deaths may be caused more by crazy or drunk drivers. Maybe having more troopers out enforcing the law would have more of an impact.
People take the parkway to get places faster. Wont Lowering the speed limit just send people into road rage?
