Life after....

I see life after high school as the beginning of the real life. Real life where anything is possible when you want it. 18years old and depending on your parents still? That's how someone's life goes for the worse because you're basically a parasite; feeding off of your host (parents). I've been independent at a young age. I want to keep it that way and go to school and become a RN.

I, senior project ( first draft)

I'm very passionate about nursing and that's what I would like to do in life. In the group I was in we had discussed about what we were passionate about. Some said music others said space, history and law enforcement. Tomorrow we will discuss more about our intrests.

Visual story telling

Visual story telling is effective in a lot of such as witnessing something live and real. 9/11 films have people jumping out of skyscrapers and hitting the top of the roof outside of the buildings lobby 100ft to their death. Visually you suffer and it gets the point across. You learn a lot from it like simple do's and don'ts. If a kid watches Kermit the frog burn his and on the stove, they're going to know that's a don't after he puts a band-aid on his hand. Visual story telling could be used as a teaching method. I use YouTube to watch others do stuff to fix their car and then use what I visually see and apply to mine.

Profile in courage

I didn't actually get to watch the beginning of the movie so my first impression of it may be a little dull. I have started to watch and have my heart touched with the 30minutes I watched today (midway through) and it hurts. It hurts mentally, physically and emotionally. I feel as if I had crippled these people. I feel pity towards them; its not fair.

The choice (prompt)

The decisions and choices made every day by every person in the world can change their lives for the better or for the worse in the long run or for the short sprint. The choice I made may have either ruined my life or has given me a gift. I have to choose between the life and death of a child not yet born. A child that has come into the world by accident, by a foolish boy that never took the advice that was being preached before him by his father ( who had to endure the same thing at my age). Choices have to be made by both partners in the relationship; the fate of this unborn child lies in the hands of two young adults that are still in high school. She can do whatever she pleases; I have no say because I'm not the one who has to endure the pain. I only have the choice to either man up and accept the challenge or run away and try to pretend like it never happened. I personally don't want to be immature like my parents, I want this child to be happy and healthy. The only way a child can be happy is if the child has TWO supporting parents that love each other and will do anything to achieve happiness in their lives. I still want to be young, wild and free but I don't think that's possible now. I have a family in the making that needs my attention. Abortion is wrong; if you're going to take the risk then you must be willing to except the results of risk. How can you prevent a child from blooming into the world? I think its unfair and that's why my choice is to man up and accept the challenge.

Vocab #1 performance review

I did pretty poorly on the vocab quiz mostly because my mind is still on break while I'm just sitting in class. My mind needs to get out of break.
