The truth about information on the web

Looking for all that research for your paper can seem like an easy job, but how do you know that the research that you come across is real? In the past I have needed to look up many things using the web witch today most of the things we do consist of using the web to find the information we need. I have come across so many different and weird information for something that I knew that what I found couldn't be right. Today so many people put out so many things on trying to get people to believe what they want them to that there is not much information that tells the truth. In order to find a good information site, I would make sure it wasn't based from a school or student. I would then make sure the information was from source that could be trusted they gave many areas were the web site got the information. However no matter if you think the site tells the truth you can never be 100% sure, sometimes it works best if you go back to the old way of looking things up in books.

Art

Over the week I looked at many different types of art such as paintings. Some of the paintings made your mind work to understand what the artiest wanted you to see in their picture and others told you with out having to think much about what the painting was. But both of these types of pictures sell to people for large amounts of money even if the painting looked as if a two year old did it. I don't think that this is overpriced but this is what a person wanted to let other people to see, maybe just paper splashed with paint or a bowl full of colored paper, this is all art that someone imagined and that no one else could see only if it was made into art. So I think that if you do see a piece of art and say a two year old could have made it, that's not true because its not the same art that was imaged by someone.

Over the new year many people make resolutions for themselves to make the new year to come a better year for them but sometimes people don't need to just make a resolution for themselves but a country like the US can also use a resolution for the new year to come. If I had to make the decision of what our countries resolution would be, it would be to use less natural recourses. If did this I think laws should be passed on how many cars are to be used or out every day and what type of things we use to make things. There have been many problems going on with goble warming and by having a resolution like this it could stop the spread of goble warming. I think if not just our country but all counties said that they would change or do something different for the new year to come that the world would have less problems and be a much better place. This year think about what you can change to make a difference.

Christmas time

Now that the gift season has moved in people are standing in hour lines, killing each other for the closet parking spot and spending money that they don't have. If you think about that don't you think there is something wrong with that picture? The holidays are a time for love,giving and joy not the time of stress to get that last minute Christmas gift or the bills that come along with it. I think people should see that even if its fun to open that huge box and pull out the shirt you always wanted you should think how important it is to spend time with your family. To think of all the great memories you have had together over the year and to share a small gift with each other, I think if everyone looked at the real word of Holiday and did what it meant, it would stop all the stress and it would bring back the joy instead of the stress it puts onto people. As I looked around as I go shopping for my family I see all the things that don't want to be thought of over the holidays. This year I hope to just let my family know how much I love them and how much joy the new year will bring.

weekend

Over the weekend I went to the circus with my little brothers. As we drove past the entrance to the circus a group of 15 stood with large signs saying to boycott the circus. It made me think of how many areas around the world the circus travels to and how many groups of people try to stop the hundreds of people to go to the circus. Then when it came down to the show I wanted to pay close attention to the people the where with the animals. I saw most of them giving them treats and saying "good job" to the animals. Then when the tigers came out I did see some things i didn't like because the trainer with them was a little mean toward the animals. I don't think that animals should be taken away to be in a circus but I don't think from what I saw the animals where getting hurt or sad. I will never know what gos on behind the walls but I do think that the animals are in good hands.

Teen Mag

I was looking at an article in the Teen Impact Magazine and I came across an article called Surrounded by No One. As I read the article and looked at the main pictures shown on the article I began to realize that it almost looked as if the editors didn't even read the story. The pictures that where shown did not go along with what the article was about. The article was taking about how cliques are not a good thing to be part of. I tells how cliques make you and other people feel bad but when you look at the picture it shows just that a group of kids have a great time that are part of a clique. This made me think that most articles we read today have many types of pictures that make you want to read the article because it makes it look more neat. Then after reading the article you see that the main pictures had not much to do with it or ave you the wrong idea. As I looked through the magazine I saw other examples of this for example in the same article I saw a picture of a group of kids studying together, all most a too perfect picture. It also showed a clique like group having a great time together when the main idea of the article was telling the reader how they are not the best thing to be part of. When looking at an article next time look at the main pictures shown and see if it was just put there to make you want to read the article moor.

Career Day

Career Day at my school was a great experience to see all the different types of jobs that there are out in our world today. I got to see and understand how much jobs pay or what type of education you need to be good at your job. The one job that I saw and thought is a great thing for today because of the loss of jobs was the Detroit Zoo. The lady told us that there are so many types of jobs needed for the zoo for example a zoo keeper, plumer, electrician or an animal education teacher. This area provides many jobs for many people. I also liked when I was able to talk to a man who worked for our city to help kids stay away from drugs. I thought that his job was doing a great thing to help our city and he was getting payed good money for doing it. Today as I and my age group get older it is going to be harder to find the jobs we need. This is because many of the older workers have lost there jobs and many companies want workers with more experience like the older workers. This can cause a big problem for people like me because when I get older I could be without a job. I learned a lot from many people and I know know that if you want to do good then you need a good education.
