The 2011 Election

Something I don't continue to understand about adults is what they think . When something doesn't work isn't the proper thing to do is to change it ? Don't you try to do the thing that works better even if it is new and innovative. I'm just getting tired of the crime in this city, what's the world coming to when the drug dealers can't walk the streets at night?

So the citizens of New Haven decided that it was  the better choice to vote for a mayor who has been in office for 18 years and has done close to nothing. I continue to tell people if you think this New Haven promise thing is the best ever, learn that it's not. I have been to the New Haven promise meetings and rallies, all of them. It's a tricky little thing and it doesn't really give you many options on where you can go to school. It basically keeps you on the inside of the city and you truly never get out. The high school dropout rate is 58% ( I'm pretty sure) and kids are starting to not care about life at all either. Children as young as 13 years old are dying by gun fire. Honestly speaking : Why would you let a mayor who has let these things under his leadership happen back in ? Why couldn't Kerekes have been mayor? Why shouldn't the new get a chance, he's young and passionate and DeStefano is getting older.

New Haven will learn one way or another.

Entertainment

So now that we are past the disturbances of the mouse in journalism class , I should write a post.

Entertainment is a huge business . It's always consuming, it's pretty much just apart of our lives. Everyday we turn to different shows on TV that point out the "famous" people or the interesting dirty scandals. Some entertainment or media sites I tend to like are :

http://www.essence.com/
http://www.nylonmag.com/
http://www.ebonyjet.com/

These are real interesting and I can read it and apply it to different parts of my life.
check some of them out if they interest you.

Republican's

                                                                   


So politics is never something anyone really ever talks about. Republicans , Democrats, Liberals, tea party. All names for groups( gangs i like to call them from time to time) are really really really aggravating. I feel that we should stop all this party this party that and get on too just being a country. America is repeating history over and over again ! come on now ! GET IT TOGHETHER  !


more on this some other time. Media studies time !

No help ! How are we going to learn?

I know I haven't posted up here in a while but I've been so busy with everything else that I haven't really had time to do all this.

An issue that recently came to my mind is the fact that in class I have to write an essay in my English class. The teacher gave us a narrative to read. Told us to do it, and never really explained how to do it. how can we learn if the teachers just throw work at us and then we don't really learn. That's not building anything for the future! In my mind it just makes us a little bit "slower" every day. They really should you know, ask these teachers questions and see if they really are teaching EVERY class what they need to know. They're not so we continue to fail tests and not learn like we're supposed to. A lot of us depend on classes like math and English, everyone can't have the good teacher. We shouldn't have to have tutors and things for simple stuff we should've learned in class but the teacher is unable to connect with us and explain it to us.

Diffrences

Have you ever really when something is diffrent. Not normal , orignial , whatever it is. It isn't excepted? It's shunned. Say a girl walks in her room and she has no hair 99.9% of that room will make fun of her .( depending on where she is ) . Especially in places like high schools , diffrences arn't excepted. Kids are cruel and unusual . When it's them they're sad they feel bullied. All these things. But when the ones doin it. They don't think about it . I don't understand it .

Esaw Hobby : Q&A

                                                  


So for class i had to interview somebody. I wasn't sure who to do so i asked the person right next to me. His name is Esaw, he's 16 years old and goes to school with me. We're both juniors.
As he gets older he wants to have enough money to live extremly comfortably and take care of his family.
In his free time esaw likes to sit back and relax.
When he grows up he wants to be a Medical Assitant. He wants to be medical asst. because it pays a lot of money. For college he's thinking about UCONN , UNH, or a medical school.
Esaw's favorite childhood memory is when he went to six flags with his family.

Underage; never payed

The thing about being 16 is your at an awkward stage. Your expected to act like an adult but you're treated like a child. The way the economy is...well pure and simple its shit and all of america should immigrate to canada. That's not likely though. But while we're here and as teens see that it's harder for our parents to get our wants and struggle to get our needs , we might as well do something . Whatever we can and in most cases its get a job . If we get a job to help support our family with just us I think It takes a huge load off !    The only problem is , we're not getting hired ! The age limit to work at places such as McDonald or target is getting raised to 18 . Yeah its two years . But a lot can happen in two years , and our families need help now . What is a kid to do ?

Popularity vs. What needs to be

Everyones been through it. 
The kids who everyone loves and know one hates . 
The kind who seem to get there way when it comes to everything and anything ? 
Yeah those kids "popular kids". Every high school, college, school, church WHATEVER , has them ! The thing is , is when you have these popular kids everyone sides with them and never argues with them. They're on top always . I wonder if anyone will ever take this little system down.

Student Council : Important ? OF COURSE !

Some students are shy and don't really want to be put on the spot. They might want to sit in the back of the class and hardly be noticed. Some students want to sit and the front of the class and have everyone hear what they have to say , whether they want to or not. Maybe some might even want to be heard sometimes and not always. Who knows !

Student council is for those who have a voice but don't know how to use them. I feel that student council has gotten far from where it should be. It's all about popularity and who's done what and blah blah blah . A whole bunch of non-sense. What people need to do is get invovled if you don't like what's going on doesn't mean you have to run for president it just means, go to your class reps and tell them. If we have a strong student council , we have a strong and fun student body.
It's important to not vote popularity but the people easier to talk to . Think before you vote !

Statement of Purpose

Many times I've tried to start a blog. It never really actually worked. So this blog (a requirment for a class) should be interesting and fun.

It's going to be full of thoughts and things that i feel are important to the teenage mind. I don't want to change the world. I just want to empower my followers and passerby's. I want a blog that's not all about reading but more about understanding a point that I want to share , or a problem that's arisen in the community that I'd like some feedback on.

It won't be boring to follow my blog ! I promise .

Twitterpation?

Is there even such a word? Our parents always say to us. Oh it's infatuation it's this and that. I think at the age we're at and the things some of us have been through we understand what love is and isnt.

I'm just saying:

Will we ever be at the age where we understand love ?
