Rights Of Passages

I havn't been through to many rights of passage but ive been through a few like turning 16 and camping by myself. One rights of passage im looking forward to is turning 18 and moving out.

USA Imperialism

I dont think the USA is an impiralist country we do not conquer other countries for the growth of our own nation. We and when we do take land we have always given it back to the country we took it from. Take the war in iraq for example we could have just taken there land and made it our own but we are over there to help them not kill them.

Censorship of the Arts

In my opinion they shouldnt censor anything because that would contridict our hole constitution and our right to speak freely. I also think they that should senser what is on

Parental Consent for Abortion

I think that you should have to have parental consent. If your going out and having sex and get pregnant then your parents should know about it. If you have to have parental consent to play on footballs teams and get peircings and tattoos then I think you should probably have to have one for this.

The Legalization of Marijuana

I think that it should be legal. People should be able to choose just like people should be able to choose if they want to drink or not. If they try and do the whole prohibition thing it will only cuase more crime and violence. One of the reasons its illegal is because it puts you in an alternate state of mind although alcohal does the same thing. Witch doesnt make sence that something illegal does the same thing as something legal yet they says it ruins lives. When most of our countries leader drink alcohalic drinks.

Genetically Modified Children

I would choose not to go along with the experiment because modifying natural life isn't right if your going to have a kid except the chance that it might not be as healthy as you want it to be. and as far as the results go I think they may back fire in 20 years and the child will not be healthy because messing with life and altering life is nothing to mess with.

McKinley Reflection

(1) What did you like best about the experience at McKinley? I liked working with the kids because I love kids I think there great little workers.



(2) What aspect of the experience was the most difficult for you? I thought that the most difficult part was talking to them because we speak almost completely different language then them but other then that it was great.





(3) How do you think the 3rd graders benefited from you being there? Well they got a little taste of how to use a camera and make a short film and they got to see how the big kids work and hopefully they can learn from that.

"What I really hate is... "

What I really hate is When people say to do one thing then go and do another. The reason I hate it is because when some one tells me to do something then go and do something completely different. It makes me feel like my ideas and ways of doing things are wrong. One example is when I was in my science class at prague my teacher told me a way to do a something then went up in front of the class and told every one else a different way then said my way was wrong even though he's the one that told me to do it that way.

Identical Twins

I think the rich family kid is gonna be more successful then the other only because the rich one has more opportunity. But the poor one would be able to manage money and his time better because he has to save and scramble for what money he can so he wont be as prone to spending it. Plus the depending on where the poor one lives he will have more chance of being sucked into to crime and drugs. While the rich one is sent to good schools and higher living styles.

Value

One object I value is my snowboard very much because it is the only athletic thing I do so its very important to me. The reason i value my snowboard so much is its my freedom from everything else and when I'm at the mountain nothing else matters I'm free and flying. One relationship I value is with my group of friends they are my fall back people they are always there and always will be. We do everything together if one person gets in trouble we all go down if one person gets a raise at work we go up its like a group life line. One idea I value is respect and love the two most important things to me because with respect comes kindness and caring. With love comes loyalty and a deeper meaning of life.
