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.

Halloween as a text

October 31st is counted down by hundreds of kids readying to go from house to house to get a teat or give a trick. Halloween is seen is so many different ways for many people, for some strong christen believers Halloween is thought to be a holiday that celebrates the devil. Many christen believers also look at Halloween not how it sounds but as all hollows Eva. Then for others Halloween is time to think to celebrate all the souls that have left the world and are not with us any more. Halloween can be looked at in so many ways from being a fun holiday to being the most evil. When looking back into history around Ireland it shows why we some of the things we do today the trick or treating or dressing up in different ways. A long time ago the people of Ireland would dress up to draw the evil spirits away from their towns today we dress up to change the way people look at us. For example when you go to a hunted house you know the monsters are just people dressed up but its still scares you. Also along time ago kids would go from door to door to get wood for their fire today we do this but we get candy. All the thing we do today go back to the beliefs and the traditions they did hunderds of years ago.
