State of the Union

I feel like our country as it is today is not as great as it could be. Obama in my opinion is an okay president but I feel like there are some changes that could be made. I agree with his great decision to stop sending troops to Iraq, but I feel like that is not the only problem in our society. Unemployment is a really big problem in our country today. I think it is unfair for people to loose their jobs because of the bad economy. Many people have kids and other people to take care of as well as keep a job. For them to loose a job must really hurt many families and can put them in great debt. Now a days it is not the easiest thing to find a job and it is ridiculous that all of these people are loosing there jobs. I am not sure if there is much Obama can do about this but I feel like he needs to work to do something about it.

For example 40 percent of the police population in Camden, New Jersey one of the worst towns for crime just got laid off. Not only is it going to hurt those families but it will most likely hurt those in the town as well. Besides people getting laid off I feel like another major problem is the school systems. This year Central Regional has change a lot that I feel like was unnecessary. If we cannot pass our budget especially after more then a few years , I do not think it is write to be able to pass a referendum for solar panels when we cannot afford to get anything new for our school. The heat in our school barely works therefore many students as well as me wear there jackets all day in school. This does not seem right to me and I am sure some other schools have problems with this. My question is why is it ok for this? I sit in school freezing all day when I should be able to sit comfortably in class and be able to learn and do my work. 

Overall as a country I feel like we can be doing much better. The school problem that I am worried about may me a minor problem in out country today but people loosing there jobs gets to me every time.I feel like it is not a major issue to the president of coarse because he would most likely not loose his not but he should start worrying about a lot of people in the society. Money now a days is so valuable and its is a really crappy thing to think about my family loosing there jobs, I can only imagine how it feels for many families. 

As president Obama does his job everyday I think he feels like he is doing a very good job. I would not say he is doing a bad job but he can strive harder. Money, economies, war and all of these problems may never end but there is something someone can do to make it a little better and right now the most important person too fix this right now is Obama.

Memory Lane

My most remembered memory is when i was growing up I have met my best friend that I have now known ever since I was three. I met her at my aunts house, they were her new neighbors that had moved in. Excited to see there was another girl to hang out with that was my age we always hung out and became best friends which we still are today. My best childhood memories are with her and I'm sure we still have many more to come.

One day we were hanging out at her house and her mom told us she was going to get a puppy. About a week later i went with her to get the puppy. Driving in the car for around three hours seemed like forever. We finally got there and got to see the puppy, it was a baby pug and it was so cute. It was a boy and they named it Buster! So excited they took the puppy home and I got to go with them. When we got back to her house we had so much fun playng with the puppy. After a while we decided to take him for his first walk and it turned out to be a bad idea.

Taking the puppy for a walk seemed like a cool fun idea. We started walking up the street and all of a sudden a huge dog came threw his screen door because he saw the puppy and chased us. As I was stupidly running away I feel on the street. The dog and my friend Gianna were ok but I wound up cutting a huge hole in my knee and needing to get stitches.

I will never forget this day because I am scared of needles. When I went to the hospital and was told i defiantly needed stitches I started crying. Getting stitches was a really horrible thing for me I was so scared. The huge needle they put in my open wound hurt so bad and looked so big almost like and epidural needle. After the stitches I had to walk with a limp for a while and I remember I forgot how to walk for a while and was walking like a freak for quite a while after that.

Besides that horrible moment I have many memories with my friend. We learned how to ride bikes without training wheels together, been on many vacations and always have had many good times and hopefully there are still many to come. I will always remember these memories and she will always be my best friend. The greatest memory would be meeting her at such a young age and still being friends she is always there for me and  I am always there for her no matter what. I am happy to have her as my best friend.

Historial Time

History is something very intresting that we learn about in school. A particular time I would like to go back to is the dinosaur ages. This was millions of years ago and it is weird to think that at one time there were no humans and instead there were these huge dinsaurs. Dinosaurs being all different sizes , even stories high seem like very intresting animals. They hatched from eggs and the majority of them were huge. At this time back in history they ruled the Earth.

Mainly being found in North America dinosaurs colors were never really determined by scientist. I would like to go back in this time so I could make my own ovservations on them and see what it was like with these huge animals on Earth. Being that they can live  up to around 150 years old, I could only imiagine how big they could get.

While I was there I would try to see and learn about all the different types of dinosaurs. They all became extinct around 65 million years ago and now all we have to know about them is the information from scientist. Scientist know more then I do but they were not able to know everything because they were not alive around that time. All they have for evidence on dinosaurs is there fossils and their tracks. New information can always be found about dinosaurs and this is why I would like to go back in these times to get the real facts.

Besides learning about the dinosaurs I would definatly take a lot of pictures so I could show people. In the fossils that have footprints and tooth marks that is how scientists were able to determine more about the dinosaur. During this age Pangea was all of the contients put together and that would also something I would like to explore millions of years ago. I also think it is really col that no humans were alive around the time dinosaurs were on Earth. Id like to be one human to see them.

All the different types of dinosaurs would be an amazing cite too see. From really small dinosaurs to the huge ones stories high I think i would be scared of them but think it would be awesome to see. With them being herbivores and carnivores I would be able too experience more about there life. Most dinosaurs walking on two legs would be something different to see because now a days animals that have four legs usually walk on all four. Now that they are all extinct it sucks that we cannot not ahve the chance to go back it that time and learn about them.

Balance of Nature

Nature is an important part of many people's life. Personally nature is not a big deal for me but learning about it sometimes is cool. There are so many different things in nature to learn about. I like learning about the different things you can do out in the nature. There are many cites that also have historical meaning and that is what i enjoy learning about.

When I was younger I always used to visit Berkeley Island and Catus Island park and see all different types of nature. Through my experiences there I have got to see the balance of nature. Animals cannot surviving nature without the balance of anything else especially food. Most animals eat other animals out in nature or plants. If there was no other plants or animals in nature nature would not be balanced. Without nature being balance those animals would no be able to survive.

For the most part I believe nature is pretty balanced today. Plants and animals seem to have a very balanced part in nature now a days. With the plants being the food animals eat and animals also eating other animals for survival there part in nature seems like it is pretty balanced.  The natural world is also balanced. As far as the weather it seems to maintain crops and outdoor life. Without thoose bad rainstorms we get every once in a while the nature around us would not be the way it is today.

Human beings do balance out nature but sometimes I do not think they do it the right way. Littering is a big part that I think humans unbalance in nature. It destorys nature and cant harm some parts of it for example kill animals. Humans balancing nature involves them working in the outdoors teaching other about it and also caring about what is around them.

The balance of nature in my opinion is when populations depend on each other in the environment. If something goes wrong in the environment then there should be something else to keep it balanced. If there is not food like plants or other animals for animals to eat then the nature is not balanced. When there is climate changes in the weather for example global warming sometimes it balances out the environment.

When nature is undistrubed it seems to leave nature at more of a balances. When nature is destroyed like littering it does not help the enviornment. When the waste products are used by others it eaquals out the ecosystem but however that is not always the case. Balancing of nature also consits of living things and forces in the natural world. The size of population also matters and can determine whether it is balanced or not. Keeping nature balanced today might not be as easy as it used to be but I think humans are trying to do the best they can to keep nature as balanced as they can.

Travel

If I had a plane ticket to anywhere in the world I would pick to go to Italy. I am almost one hundred percent Italian and a lot of my family that I do not know lives there. My grandmother came off a ship straight form Italy to come to America many years ago to live a better life at the time. She has told me many stories about Italy and I am really interested in going. She grew up with 11 siblings and most of them are in Italy now. Unfortunately I have never met them but I would love to go there just to meet them.

In Italy I would go to all the little towns and visit my family. I would also go cite seeing a lot and see many of the cool ancient Roman buildings. My aunt recently last summer had went to Italy and she took many group tours and told me all about them. She got to eat the real Italian food and also get to try many new things. I would also like to attend a church service there. I heard that you don't wear formal wear when you go to those churches. The dress wear for women is a long dress or skirt most the time and for men a nice shirt or one with a tie, this would be a different experience then the churches in our town today.

Seeing temples and all the cool ancient buildings is the main reason I want to go there. They have beautiful towers and cathedrals that I am eager to see. My stay in Italy would involve me staying in the top of the line hotels. Bed and breakfast and and nice suite for the room. Wonderful room service and a nice huge room with a jacques sounds like the perfect hotel. It would have to be clean and maybe have a beautiful cite out the window.

Over my lifetime so far I have tried so many different types of Italian food but im sure there is still more to try. I would be willing to try them. It is always int resting to try new foods and im sure i havent tried all of them yet. In Italy i would defiantly want to try there sauce, I heard it is the best. Now I am not old enough but when i am alittle older i would like to do the wine testing tour. They allow you to try all the different wines and show you how to make them , I think it would be cool.

Besides food, family, and beautiful buildings I would love to just sit back on the beach. I have heard the beaches in Italy are gorgeous, I would love to lay on the beach and watch the sunrise. The fact that you travel everywhere by boat is so intresting to me and I cannot wait to see the sights around Italy. If I had the chance to visit Italy I would spend most of my time sight seeings and taking a boat out into the beautiful ocean waters. Italy is defiantly a place i want to go to one day.

Punishment

It is never the best choice to do something wrong. In our society today there are many things adults and even young kids do wrong. Not being punished for doing something wrong no matter what if its time out for a child or jail for an adult there should be some punishment. A murderer should be killed himself. I believe if anyone has the heart to kill somebody no matter what the reason is they should be killed themselves. Death penitently is something rarely used today and I feel that it is necessary to be given to a murderer. Therefore murderer might not immediately get the death sentence but should spend all of the time before that in prison.

Over and over again crimes happen in our society. Getting sent to prison is something that I think works best for our society. Being in prison is not fun and the time spent in prison should give the person a chance to realize what they did wrong and make them learn from there mistakes. If the person doesn't realize there mistake then that's their own fault and will have to face more consequences. I could not imagine time in prison it looks like such an uncomfortable, creepy, and not so fun place. I do not understand how people could commit a crime knowing that they are going to go to prison or get taken away for it.

After a certain amount of crimes from one person I believe they should be in prison or jail for a lifetime. There are rules in every different society and they are not suppose to be broken. Under some circumstances I think it would be ok for them to come out at their sentenced time. Thief's should be in prison for a good amount of time. Stealing items or breaking into places should involve harsh consequences. Not only should they have to give back and pay for all the items and fines I think prison time needs to be required. If there was no prison time at all what would make them not steal again? I don't think everyone learns from prison but I believe if they don't learn something out of going then something is wrong with them or they just don't care.

In my world of justice my prison would be packed with so many criminals. I would make them do work outside, cook all meals, clean and serve there mates pretty much like prison's now a days. They would not have a lot if any time out of there cell and they would be put through torture. Prison is a punishment it is not suppose to be fun and they would not be aloud to have any fun time what so ever. If you do something wrong you have to pay the price and getting out easy is not the answer.

Deep Questions

Life is full of many wonders and a lot of the times I ask myself why. My main question as a human is why do we die and what is it going to be like when we die? I have learned that there is a heaven and hell and that obviously good people would go to heaven. However I do not get how everyone has a different view about death and it can be looked at in many different ways. We really do not know where we are going to go when we die. I also wonder what its going to be like when we die. Will we see the people we are friends with now and our family or will we meet all new people or will be just be a dead soul? I will never know. The thought of dieing scares me and I try not to think about it so much but unfortunatly it is a topic that does come up sometimes. It is intresting to hear about all the different views on the topic. Does everyone die because its there time or is it just meant to be. Why do people get in accidents and why is it the passenger that usually gets injured more or why are they the ones to die? Why do people kill themselves to die? Why do people kill other people murders or getting shot? How could they really do that to someone to take there life away? Is getting in trouble with the law for murder worth it to them? People dont think sometimes and when they attempt to kill somebody the consequences dont seem worth it so why do they do it? Why do we all live to die? When you die is there an afterlife? Do you come back and live in a different world or are you just like a rock sitting on the ground? Why do people decide to get buried in the ground rather then get cremated and not get eaten by bugs? Does everybody believe in ghosts? If your a ghost do you life a new life? There are so many things to open your mind up too on the topic of dieing. No one will ever be able to tell you for such what happens when you die but theres is always stories to be told.
