It was he who made my life interesting and different. He made my life colorful rather than dark, and his strictness taught me well. The person who has really impacted my life is my older brother. I know, some people would be like I hate my older brother or he is so annoying. I have to say that yes, at times he gets really annoying. There are so many times that I just really hate him and I wish that he would move out but… that won’t happen until June. Alright, so how did he really impact my life? Well, first of all, he was the first born child so he was taught to ride a bike first and drive first and graduate school first but, I think he did a lot more things with my parents than me or my younger brother. My parents obviously work, well my mom does right now. He is strict about what I do and he makes sure that I do what my parents tell me. It seems like he is always watching me. When I am on the computer he makes sure I am not doing anything wrong or he yells at me like CRAZY when I don’t listen or I am in the shower to long. I actually think he takes longer showers than I do though. My older brother and I are ten years apart and he lost two siblings before me. He was really happy when I actually survived. My younger brother was born about 14 or 16 months after me and my parents were just kind of busy with the younger one. My older brother was always around me when I was younger. He always walked me around or was always holding me. Now, even though he is strict he takes me places. Sometimes we go to resturaunts or we go to Six Flags or Lake Compounce. When ever I am mad he always makes these stupid jokes but I can’t help but laugh. When I hurt myself by accident like that time I walked into a pole, he was make jokes like Rudolph the black and blue nosed reindeer or he just couldn’t stop laughing which is even more annoying. He is cool though, really responsible and helps me when I need it. He always comes to talk to me and stuff, its cool. I just wish he could always stay in his good mood. I don’t know how I can live with…
His Annoince
His strictness
He weirdness
But then again, how wouldn’t I. He changed me as a person for better, I think that without him I would be different in a worse way and all I can do is thank him.
Its all just Family Love.

“My real question, I guess, is what activity is so well suited to face-to-face contact that it can’t be replicated online?”
This is a really good question. What I think is that technology has impacted our lives so much people don’t think that it will change very much. What about in ten to fifteen years when everything has changed. What about schools and the way they work. I think that right now, we do need schools only because not many people own a computer. But, everyone eventually will and then I agree with you 100%. Everyone will probably own a computer in the future since it is becoming so important. What I really think is that our towns should not be paying all this money for the schooling. The taxes should goo down and we should have schools online. We would not have to pay for paper for our schools our electricity. We can do all of our work in our pajamas!We would not even have to go to school. I think that we don’t have to come face to face for schooling anymore and maybe in five years that will change. Students will be able to learn a lot more and not fall asleep in class because they won’t have to wake up early. Students would not have to worry about there appearance and worry about schooling, there education. I think that maybe once a month the class should meet up somewhere like a field trip and base it on what they are learning. Students would be able to learn things better because they can find a lot of information online. People do need to develop skills in talking to people and telling speeches and maybe that can be a project that each student will have to do that once a month when they meet. people’s lives are going to get changed dramatically, they just are not thinking about it yet.

I randomly picked someone on the Today In History paper and i got, Nia Long. Nia long was born October 30, 1970 in New York. She is an American Actress and a music video director. Some movies you might have heard of that she acted in are, Are We There Yet? and Big Momma’s House. She is still alive today and I think she brought a lot of great things into this world. She must have inspired many people in her acting career and I know that many people love acting. She is in great movies and people must enjoy watching her. She is also a dance director and many people want to become dancers or directors and she is probably wonderful at it and inspires many others. Her mother was an art teacher and her father was a high school teacher so she was around a lot of teachers and maybe thats way she’s like a dance teacher and the art from her mother is in the acting.

I went on google and searched for a blog about puppies. I came upon this subject because I have a puupy, I love animals, and to see if there was anything interesting on dogs out there. This is about someone who wants a knew puppy to train and compete with and she has pictures and videos of puppies on her blog.
“I’ve been realizing for a while that both my beagle girls are going to be around agility retirement age in about 2-3 years, and I’m going to want to have a dog to compete with.”
She likes the bree of beagles. She has many cute pictures of beagle puppies on her blog. She has a couple of videos. What I learned was that beagles are so cute when they are puppies and that this girl compettes with her dogs in dog competitions and wants to get a knew puppyu to train. Obviously this girl must be really good at training dogs and I think that is really cool.
The comment I left her was… I think that the puppies on your blog are adorable. I came upon your blog while searching for a blog about puppies and I am so happy that I did because I love the videos and pictures on your blog. We just got a knew puppy. We named him Tucker. He is a minature pinshcer, chihuahua, and jack russel terrier mix. He is really cool but he is like really hiper and we should have named him trouble. Is it easy to train puppies for a competition? It must be a lot of work. I just wish my dog would be well be haved but I guess it takes time and treats.

There are so many things that I wish could get out of my way so that I can follow my goals and dreams. The first thing is money. I want to go to a private high school and a really good college. Going to those takes money and sorry to say but money doesn’t grow on trees. The next thing is that time is going by way to fast. I wanted to try another sport besides soccer and dance but I wouldn’t have enough time. I get home and do y homework if I don’t have dance or soccer practice then after I go to see my dad at the hospital. Sometimes the only time I actually go outside is when I’m getting in or out of a car. By the time I am done with everything it is either really dark out or its almost midnight! One thing I hope will happen soon is that my dog will get potty trained. But, I am the only one who gives him a treat in my family because the others are too lazy. But my final hope is that my dad will be able to walk and move normally like he used to. It seems like the nurses aren’t even doing anything. By the time the nurse gets to my dad he would forget what he needed in the first place because they are so slow. His physical therapy is going well but it seems like there is enough. THERE ISN”T ENOUGH OF ANYTHING ANYMORE!!!!!

I think that students in extracurricular activities should be tested for drugs. Now, that I think of it, people try to be there best and when they think that they could be better then what they are now, they might take drugs. The take these drugs and they think they have become better at that extracurricular activity. If someone was on a soccer team and they think they can’t run fast enough for the team the would probably try to take a drug and they are better then who they were. Students should get tested because you don’t know what they are doing to get into these activities. It wouldn’t be fair to the team mates who are themselves and don’t take drugs who are competeing against those who take drugs and are winning with the whole drug thing kept as a secret.

If I was not afraid I would think that I would go skydiving. I think I would do this because it must look so pretty from the view up there. the reason why I want to do this the most is because it must feel so cool jumping out of a plane with the wind blowing in your face. The most important reason is that if I jumped out of a plane I would feel like all my problem would be away from me. I wouldn’t have to be afraid of my dad being in the hospital. I wouldn’t be afraid if he didn’t have the perfect recovery. I wish I wouldn’t be afraid of anything anymore because my problems would be all behind me.
