finals are stressing

Finals are in a week , and a lot of students aren't ready. Complaining about what will be on these tests , and if they will past a lot. So I guess you can say , its some thing to stress about. The finals doesn't determine wheater you will go to the next grade or not , but it is an grade, that some students can afford and cannot afford. ( meaning if they score high or low ).

What if the more then half of students don't pass , then what ? We get punished, and get called names for that? I think the students had to learn their information from some where, so to get all the blame isn't right as a student. I'm not saying the test should be easy all the way through , but I think our feelings and thoughts should count. Now majority ( I believe ) of children will past and for the others , they did their best.
I don't think its right to put peopl down about their grades. Usually when a child gets a D adults see that as , a failure. They didn't try ,and they didn't want to try. But in most cases that is not true. What id they did try , just because they failed the first few times ( one or two ) doesn't mean they didn't try. You won't get perfect or score 100 every single time . Its a learning process that takes time. eventually they will get it , and keep on getting it , but adults don't see that half of the time. So yes , I think the finals are some thing to stress about for both students and teachers !

I Believe

One story we read in class was a "I believe" story. ABout a woman who believe that getting angry is okay, and it can be a good thing.In the story she explains how, getting angry lead her to a great place. When she was younger, she didn't exactly have the life she wanted. They told her, her parents belonged in an interment camp ( like in world war 2 with the japanese ). So when she got older, she got tired of people treating other they way her and her family got treated do she decided to do something about it. She got angry and took her steps, she helped 50immigrant families. she had down falls but she did what she had to do because she got angry

What do i think:I think getting angry doesn’t always help you to where you want to go to the place you want to go. I don’t completely agree, because to me it sounds like she saying being angry can only get you far and het you what you want. But the again it can help you for were you need to go (but that’s not the only choice you have). No more Mr. nice guy. Also I think she needs to be a little more clear on hat getting angry can make you do, it is a god and bad thing and doesn’t work in all problems. I think there’s a lot more to just getting angry, that a lot of people may not know about, so I agree and disagree.

brodacasting........whiteness

This Blog is going to be about TV shows that may be a problem for our world today. For example, TV shows that only have one race (two in a half men or girls) people think shows should be more diverse and not just all white or all black.

Why do you think there is not that many shows on network television (abc, nbc, cbs, fox) with diverse casts?
The problem with that is, they might not believe black people aren’t educated enough, or just not what there looks for. I also believe that a lot of people today are still races. And not only on TV shows. Television does have a lot of universe characters. Meaning, it seems like TV stations and TV shows are in two different world. White and black. IT shouldn’t be that way. People are marching around, yelling they love black people or they over white people or whatever the case my be, but in reality its all just for show or just to be on TV!

Have you ever watches a TV show you thought was racist? Explain what you saw and what you thought about it.
A TV show I show I thought was racist was ‘Family Guy”. Family Guy is very racist, they show how they think black people act or how they suppose to act, and that’s the am for white people. It’s a shame that’s what they think about African American people. For example if there were to be a hip-hop scene, they would make the black or white person speak wit slang language. I really don’t think that’s right; children watch that show and many others!

Gun Fashion

i think the idea of making clothes to hide your gun is a very brainless idea. I mean who in the world came up with this plan. I have a lot of questions to ask, but probably wont get answered. For example, why did they let clothes lines, and fashion desingers make clothes for this type of activity, it just doesn't make since!If we were allowed to carry guns just because, this would really be an unsafe world for every one. I thought they were trying to make the world better by taking away guns, not bring them in to our lifes even more. Why would you want to support this. “Do you think this ‘trend’ in fashion will continue and more and more clothing manufacturers will create clothes for guns?” I do think if this trend becomes popular more and more clothing lines will make clothes for gun. Only because they want money, they might not really care about the fact that every one is carrying a gun, they are just worried about how much money they will make off of the product! “Do you think Americans should be allowed to carry guns?” I completely disagree. Now I am for people carrying around guns with a license, but with out one am just asking for trouble. I have heard in America some K-Marts sale guns over the coner (with a 3 day back round) but just the idea scares me. Some one is able to just buy guy with out any papers signed. What about the children in this world, what about there say. Also the adult that disagrees with this new law or rule. It just isn’t far !
