Choice Blog #5This, ladies and gentleman, is my rant. Feminism. I don;t agree with it at all. To me, this is the stupidest, more ignorant, and just so aggravating topic! I don't understand how a girl can say that they need to be equal to men. What?! are you kidding me?! listen us ladies, it's the 21st century! get over yourself's! Women are police officers, in the military, mechanics, firefighters! you name is, women do it! But you have the nerve to say that you girls aren't equal to men? Is it because of the past? Because you weren't aloud to vote? Well guess what, you can now. It is the same way with African American people still bringing up slavery! I'm 100% sure that you weren't there when slavery happened, and i'm 100% sure i wasn't either, so what are you mad at me about? I understand that women want to be equal, but if you open your eyes and look around, you are equal, if not more superior than men! It just bothers me, how women have every right that men do, and yet, they still complain about not being equal. How does that make any sense. Hate on me all you want ladies, but it's just my opinion.

Book Blog #5In my book, Th1rteen Reasons Why by Jay asher Hannah, the girl in the recordings after her suicide, tells about how people used her. She tells about how people played with her, like a toy. She tells how people just used her for things they needed. I believe that using somebody is completely and utterly wrong. You can't just mess around with them and put them down when you're done, like a toy. You can't do this because in general, friends don't hurt other friends, and they are there for each other, and don't just be friends so they can get something! This tends to happen more with girl it seems like, i'm not sure why, just it just seems like it. Girls can be terrible to one another! They can be your worst nightmare! But all in all, you just can't use people for stuff you need! Just accept people for who they are! This book really interests me with all the problems Clay tends to face, such as this. He learns about how Hannah was used for her body, her friends, her life. It's just sad to think that somebody can actually use you like a toy, and it's only a matter of time before your battery runs out.
In this week's article of the week, it talked about how people are getting too attached to their smart phones. This, i'm afraid, is sadly true. I will personally say that I am attached to my iPhone, i'm always on it, whether it is Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or Snapchat! Smart phones are just so addicting. How can you not love them? Music, internet, camera, any answer you can ever think of, right in the palm of your hand! It's crazy to think that your little phone can do all of this stuff! Yes, they can be bad though too! Somebody get addicted to them and use them all the time, and I mean ALL of the time. Like while driving, which is illegal, and also very dangerous to you, and other drivers! All of this is just an example of how much our generation has changed, it is all technology! It's everywhere! We better get used to it because it is't like it's going to go away! Even think, im typing this on a Chromebook right now! Hello?! It is all about technology, it's not going anywhere, get used to it, or you'll be left behind!
Choice Blog #4What is perfection really anyway? being "cute"? being smart? what about being popular or wealthy? if you ask me, i think all of that doesn't really matter. I think that we should just be friends with, and love everybody. Nobody is perfect, once we realize that, I think we will be okay. Is it a weird to anybody besides me that if a random guy asked a wealthy man for a dollar on the street, the wealthy man would blow him off. But if the same random guy asked a homeless person, that homeless person would give everything he has in his cup, that we worked all day for, so you can get a ride on the city bus home! Those who have nothing, tend to give more, and those who have everything, tend to give less. Instead of bullying and hazing, why not giving complements and hugs? If we would believe that everybody is unique and everybody is perfect is there own way. "Pulling someone down will never help you reach the top" Quit putting people down, help them up! To receive a smile, give one! (:
Book Blog #4In my book Th1rteen R3asons Why by Jay Asher, clay continues to listen to the tapes from Hannah, but there is something wrong. Clay is still keeping this a secret from his mom, his best friend, he's keeping it from the world. Friends are something you should take pride in, they're the ones that are supposed to be there for you no matter what. They're supposed to be on your side, and support you 100% in an decision, anything thrown your way. But clay seems to be pushing his friends away. He isn't telling his best friend whats going on. He steals from his friend then doesn't tell him the truth about it. Friends don't lie to friends, friends don't keep secrets, and friends should be trusting of each other enough tell them exactly how you are feeling and what is going on with your life. I get that sometimes you want to keep to yourself and just be alone, but sometimes you need somebody to talk to, and you need somebody to be there for you just like you need to be there for them as well. Friends should be there for friends. Enough said.
In this weeks article of the week, it was about how Robots will take over the world if we don't stop underestimating how smart they are. This is true, we have to take precaution with this kind of stuff. Google, for example, is a search engine, it has tons and tons and TONS of answers for everything imaginable, but guess what? Google is a piece of technology! Google is smarter than us, and that can be a good thing, and a bad thing. Now I know, it won't be a robot/technology take over, but we are turning blind to the thoughts of what could happen. Technology, everyday, gets smarter and smarter, it is a revolutionary thing! technology is something we should take pride in, man made, but it could turn bad quick. The terminator is far far away, even the robots they talked about in the article had to be helped by the aid of their creators, but that doesn't mean that mankind can't make a robot that can run all by itself! We need to be more careful, more cautious, and take pride in what we build, but be smart enough to know that technology can evolve. We just need to be careful, and be safe with technology.
Book Blog #3In my book Th1rteen R3asons Why by Jay Asher, Clay has to lie and lie and lie to his friends and family to keep them from knowing about all the tapes from Hannah. This is an example of how some lies can save people and others can hurt people. There are some lies, little white lies, like the ones Clay has been telling, that can just do things such as keeping someone from knowing something, or something such as saving people from there feelings getting hurt or making them sad. Other lies, can hurt people, they can break bonds or friendships and ruins peoples lives. If Clay keeps telling little white lies, he may start to tell bigger lies that could start to hurt people. Yes, it is true that clay is only telling lies that is keeping his friends and his mother from knowing about the tapes, but if he keeps it going, it could escalate very, very quickly. Lying is something that you shouldn't grow a habit on, you shouldn't get used to telling lies and keeping secrets. Yes, there is a time and place for a little white lie, but you should never do it to intentionally hurt somebody, or things such as rumors.
Choice Blog #3Music, it's powerful, it makes you laugh, makes you cry, and in some cases, makes you sit back and think. Music is something that is a huge part of my life, I listen to music all of the time. I don't even exaggerate when i say it's all the time. As soon as i wake up i turn on music and get in the shower, after i'm out, put my headphones on and get straight back to business. After school, sometimes even during school, i listen to music. It gets you pumped, it can make you sad, it's very powerful! Here's where my argument comes into play, see, people say rap isn't real music. That is bull! The people who say that, don't listen, they hear it! They don't listen! Rap is an art, hence the name rap artist, they have a certain flow that just keeps you wanting more. Music in general is so powerful, it's not only rap, i love music in general! I love county music as well! Also the today's pop hits, rock and roll, anything! i really just love stuff with a good beat and a good rhythm. Pandora is my go-to music source, Pandora is probably my most used app next to probably Instagram! I could only imagine what it would be like to produce music one day! Sitting in my own studio, living the dream, doing what I love, listening to music! All day, everyday, it's all about the sound of music!
The article of the week this week is about how most some people can't afford internet and it's effecting the schooling because everything is run off of technology now. This is sad because it's not the child's fault that they can't afford internet, therefor making there schooling harder for them. This is turning into a civil rights thing because it seems to be most people that are Mexican that this is effecting! It's sad to think that our lives have turned into such a cyber world that those who can't keep up, just seem to fall out. Now that Stockbridge is a 1 to 1 school, we have the privilege of getting Chromebooks, which makes the use of technology better for ALL students. Our school gave each and every student a Chromebooks so that nobody is left out. Nobody can fall behind! Hopefully more schools will join us in the 1 to 1 program and start picking people up instead of leaving them behind because the "can't afford it." That is such a lame excuse, nobody should be left behind because they can't afford something. Times are tough! We need to start helping one another out! Get it together! lets do this together, nobody left behind!
In this weeks article of the week, we read about mass shootings. Mass shootings seem to be a big problem and its just getting worse. But I found a flaw in this. It seemed to me, and a bunch of other kids in our class, that this article, was just trying to say that we need better gun control. This, is something that is pointless and we shouldn't even have to talk about. Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Gun control is just for people who are scared of what MIGHT happen. Our 2nd amendment should be protected, the bill of rights says that we have the right to bare arms, and if they take that away from us because our government is scared, then maybe they should just not sell guns to the mentally unstable and those with a big criminal record! That is the real problem, careless people selling weapons to those who mentally unstable and those who physically and mentally should not use guns. We can't be scared of what would happen like mass shootings, we can only be prepared for when and if it happens. Don't live in the past, and don't live in the future, because then you'll worry. Just live for now and you'll be alright. the government needs to stop being scared of mass shootings and just prepare better!
