Constitutional Amendment

The new law I would make is, how sports are handled at schools. That all sports are treated equally. That the girl sports are not thought less of and that everyone is able to do what they want. That it is thought of as much as everything else. That everyone in the school is treated ewually and the respect for each sport is bigger.

Believe

I wish I still believed in sanat. Because every christmas morning my brother wakes up and says oh my gosh mom, dad look what santa brought me! He is so very excited every morning. Now that I know he isn't real, I feel bad knowing that my parents always got the presents for me and also that something that amazing could not be real. That I can't have that feeling that santa ate the cookies we made. That the reindeer ate the carrots we always left outside for them to eat. That sound when you wake up at night and think you hear someone on the roof. But most of all the feeling that you have in the morning when you would wake up at the crack of dawn to go downsairs and open up all the presents that santa brought you.

Appearances

Yes I know people that are both big on the inside and little on the outside. Also people that are big on the outside and little on the inside. Idon't  think physical appearances are related to personality. Just because people don't look very good doesn't mean that they have the best intention for themselves and others. If my internal beauty was related to my outside beauty them i think that sometimes it would be saying that i really care about how people look at me and what they think. But then sometimes it would be that I don't care what people think. And that I'm just being myself, and living life.

This generation

This generation is all about getting, getting, getting. Everbody only cares about themselves. They care about what they have what they get and how much is coming for them. They don't care much about anyone else. The only time anyone else is on their mind is when they are trying to outbeat them. Which is not fair. Everyone needs to think about other people other than themselves. It depends if I am a saver or a spender. I am only a saver when i know that I am saving for something speical that I really want. But even then I may spend the money. Because when I see something that I like I usually get it no matter what.

Tribe

I belonged to the tribe of outgoing people. The tribe of people who care. The tribe of volleyball players. The tribe of teenage girls. The tribe of a country world. The tribe of pizza lovers. The tribe of kid lovers. The tribe of a hard worker. The tribe of a loving daughter. The tribe of a proud person. The tribe of someone lucky to have the people she has.

Extroverts & Introverts

I regain my energy both ways. I love to be by myself sometimes and just listen to music and relaax but then again i love to be with my friends and able to talk to people and have a lot of fun. I think extroverts have it easier because they can be themsevles. I feel like introverts are trying to hide from people because they can't be someone other people want them to be. I think that there would be a lot more problems because people could be very mean and it is nice to have people that keep to thensevles. I think that it would be very normal and boring. Extroverts so everyone is having fun. Extroverts are better leaders because they better in public but introverts are by themsevles. I think that extroverts are better writers and teachers because they are outgoing and are not afraid to say and teach what they know. I think that introverts are better neighbors because then you can have someprivacy. No I don't think it matters that much because everyone is different no matter what and everyone is going to have there own perspective on people.

This I Believe

Life Law Nine

Forgiveness is the healing of wounds caused by another. You choose to let go of a past wrong and no longer be hurt by it. Forgiveness is a strong move to make, like turning your shoulders sideways to walk quickly on a crowded sidewalk.


This tell you what forgiveness is about. It tells you at what points you should forgive. You may always forgive, but you will never forget. 

Life Law Six

Everyone looks at life in a different way. But the way you look at it and the way that someone else looks at it could change everything you think about life. If you look at life with the thought of going in and going for everything then you could end up in a good way. Then there is ways that people look at different people, like guys look at girls like they are scumbags, and guys look at girls totally different. The way that people look at their parents could all e different ways too. It all depends on the way you look at people to determine the way you look at life.

Life Law Five

No one should be afraid to fail , to get rejected, or to get a bad answer. If everyone was afraid of getting rejected where would we be right now in our life, in our society, in our world? You should go for what you want and don't stop until you get it, if it is meant to be yours if it isn't then it won't but you can't get anything until you tried. And you can't say i give up until you went to get what you wanted full heartidly. If there is something that could be changed or something that you have been wanting to participate in the you need to go and try and don't give up until you can say "Iv'e tried everything".

Passing Stranger

ASSING stranger! you do not know how longingly I look upon you,

You must be he I was seeking, or she I was seeking, (it comes to me as of a dream,)

I have somewhere surely lived a life of joy with you,

All is recall'd as we flit by each other, fluid, affectionate, chaste, matured,

You grew up with me, were a boy with me or a girl with me,

I ate with you and slept with you, your body has become not yours only nor left my body mine only,

You give me the pleasure of your eyes, face, flesh, as we pass, you take of my beard, breast, hands, in return,

I am not to speak to you, I am to think of you when I sit alone or wake at night alone,

I am to wait, I do not doubt I am to meet you again,

I am to see to it that I do not lose you.

o captain my captain.

193. O Captain! My Captain!

1 O CAPTAIN! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:
But O heart! heart! heart!	5
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
2 O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills;	10
For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding;
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,	15
You’ve fallen cold and dead.
3 My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;	20
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

My best teachers.....

I would have to agree and disagree, I think that our parents are great teachers but are still learning themselves. Since our parents have been a teenager and been through everything we are going through right now and everything else were going to go through. That makes me think that they know everything that there is to know and that they can teach me anything and always have the correct answers. Sometimes this may be true but then again it can be very wrong. Say you have a problem in your life and you don't know what to do and you turn to your parents for help since you know that they have been through this already you think they have the correct answer. What you don't know is that this answer can dig you deeper and deeper than you already are in your problem. In the end I think that our parents are still learning as we grow up and make mistakes, our parents raising us is a growing and learning opportunity for them as well as for us.

Sophomore year

The start of my sophomore year has been interesting. I knew that it was going to be a lot of work to do at some points and time, but i have just begun feeling that everything is piling onto me. That I have something to do for every single class and with sports on top of it, its very hard to keep up with everything. This just means that I have to work harder and work longer to be able to get my work done. I really think that it will get better but I hope that it gets better really soon.
