A pretty little liar (Flawless)


The book Pretty Little Liars (Flawless) is a book for young adults which was written by Sara Shepard. This book is about four girls from Rosewood named Spencer, Hanna, Aria, and Emily who all shared a mutual friend, named Alison. Alison kept all their secrets and got in trouble because of the incident that took place at Toby Cavanaugh a weird guy who uses to live in the neighborhood. At the time that Alison got lost, the rest of the girls knew that their top secrets where hidden so they split apart from one another.
Then, they joined up again and, they began receiving weird messages and notes from an unknown person called A, who seems to know a lot about the girls. This book is all about finding out the person that murdered Alison, and the unknown person A that knows the secretes they had about each other and mainly who A the unknown person is?
This book carries on the large skin on gossip, telling people they can go crazy from followers. Sara Shepard leaves the person who reads in suspense concerning A in the mean time keeping the girly feeling of the book. All of the characters are only one of a kind and they have their own troubles. I think Sara Sheperd did a good job writing this book, I thought it was awesome reading it although I didn’t like the part where Jenna was killed and Alison got missing.

Marriage is a life altering and age seems to be very important. Most teens want to get married early because they think it will make them happy or give them more control over their spouse, however, marriage is all about partnership, not control. If your spouse was or is a person that parties a lot, then they will likely still be a flirt after they still get married. Teens tend to act before thinking. Many of our ancestors got married when they were teenagers, but the world has changed since those times.

Woman back then were not expected to work or further their education and a college education wasn't required for a man to get a good job. Teenagers change drastically in the last few years before they reach adulthood. Taking a few years to get to know your partners instead of rushing yourself out of your parent’s home is the best way to avoid regret. The insecurity marriage can put in risk it’s possible for the financial good.

When the fathers teens baby are teens themselves they night have a less financial. The majorities of teens are not educated or mature enough or have financial responsibly to handle a family and parenting. Teenage marriage has become a challenge; the first reason that pops up in our mind is an accidental pregnancy. Some teenagers who decide to have early marriage do this because they may face an accidental pregnancy and they will feel like they have a responsibility of a child, even though they are not matured in their own life.

Swine Flu (H1N1)


The new H1N1 is a virus that is infecting humans and can be spread from one human to another. The symptoms of H1N1 are the same like those of virus in general, which are chills, fever, headache, coughing, weakness, and many other pains. The H1NI spreads in the same way that regular viruses spread, mainly through the coughs and sneezes of people who are sick with the virus.
In order to prevent the H1N1 people must wash their hands with soap and water. H1N1 virus can not be transmitted by food; people can not get H1N1 from eating pork or pork products. The human contamination with the flu disease from pigs are mostly to happen when people are in close to infected pigs, which are in barns and livestock housing pigs fair.
People may become infected by touching something with flu viruses on it and then touching their mouth or nose. Dozens of people are dying and falling ill with this disease spreading. The H1N1 illness doesn’t regularly take lives of pigs. The virus has apparently sickened more the 2,500 people and has killed more than 170 people. There are vaccines which are given to pigs to prevent the H1N1 virus, but there is none to protect humans from H1N1.

Attacking gays

First of all to begin I believe that everyone should be able to have the right to make their own choice about what they want or what they don’t want in life. On the other hand there many problems that contain lies. Someone cannot classify based on the persons race, religion or sex. There are many gays out there who don’t deserve to be treated the way they are, some do not even get the respect they want in life. This whole thing just makes them traumatized about themselves. If they desire or wish to be in this world in peace then its ok, they have the right to do anything they want to do their human beings in this world like us but they shouldn’t force others to be like them if they don’t want to.
They should keep this act away from us younger ones, and out of our school. Decent people will not be able to accept their way of life no matter the amount of homosexuals shown. Normal people would find this act gross. Gay men are many times more likely than others. Sometimes some people just wonder if gays can go straight. Gays serve in many countries especially in the United States.

Concussion of the earth


Earthquakes happen all around the world in thousands of cities every day. Earthquakes have killed more than 25 million people. They strike unexpectedly and violently. We should take this into consideration and perhaps help people by giving tips for safety. It will prepare them for what seems predictable. Shouldn’t we stay indoors or if you outdoor, maybe somewhere in your car stay put until the quake is over, it is very dangerous to leave your home during an earthquake.
Earthquakes take place mostly in the central portion of the United States of America. The majority of earthquakes take place at depths of less than 80 kilometers from the earth’s surface. Large earthquakes take place with the plate shift of even one or two meters. Earthquakes may or may not cause diseases; to some people it may even cause death.

Embarrasing Moments

Many people have there own embarrassing moments. Today Amanda Luisis expressed how she was embarrassed at her uncles house and he was running around her cousin, they where chasing each other and right behind her was a brick tile and her cousin was going to jump on her Amanda not know this she moved to get away and her cousins foot hit her heat her head and it landed on the brick tile, her dad said she was bleeding but on the spot she didn’t know because she could not feel anything, when her dad said this she started crying.
Her mom was going crazy when the incident happened; take her to the hospital her mom said but her dad said no she’ll be fine. So her dad crabbed her head and closed it up .This action happened when she was 10 years old. This incident was very embarrassing for her because her family was laughing at her but then when she was told her head was bleeding she freaked out.

Interview With Mrs.Bowers


In life many of us have experienced best times and worst times. Mrs. Bowers a piper high school social worker conveys her best and worst experiences at the school her work place essentials is an elective class. She first started at plantation high school as an intern working her way up to the top.
Her best experience is to motivate students but just because she teaches them it doesn’t mean that they will care about what she’s teaching or what she says to them. It happens almost everyday in the class. Not all the students have that motivation to do their best just because she is. At first she felt discouraged about the situation but later on she learnt that it was a learning experience. That even though they may not care it mite later on.
Her working with the stuff members was a very good experience for her because they where very helpful to her and the others too.

Basketball Athelitic


Arvid Williams got hurt on his first game, but that didn’t prevent him from loving the sport. Williams is currently a sophomore who plays on piper high school’s JV basket ball team and is hoping to continue until his senior year. Williams plays as a point guard in the team. There are nine people on his team and he gets along with the quite alright. They bond well after winning a game. Williams said it was a lot of hard work for him on the JV basketball team, but he didn’t lose faith in himself. The team motto is that the defense wins championships. They always pray before beginning a game.

Electronic Devices


Electronic devices are mainly made up to ease communication. The communication humans have with each other bring them closer to each other. This is the main thing. It’s unfortunate that people abuse the use of electronic devices in class. When students pass these limits it effects their education negatively.
Electronic devices are useful in many ways. Take for example a cell phone. They come in handy in state of an emergency. In other words it saves a lot of time. Let’s say a person got lost on his or her way somewhere it would be a good thing to pick up the phone and get help or you can say if someone had an accident in the middle of no where you can as well call for help and let them know and this saves him or her lot of time. Cell phones also make people who are far away seem to close to each other by making a phone call.
Video games are useful to children because it keeps their mind at work. Some of the video games now a day are good for children because they are educational to them and by that way it helps them to get along with one another. This allows them to share their ideas.
Even though there are many good things about electronic devices, there are also many reasons that they should not be brought to school and most of all to classes. There are many students who can’t resist the enjoyment that they get from the use of certain electronic devices. The most common gadgets include cell phones, mp3 players, iPods and portable video games. The failure to resist the urge to use such devices in class is harmful to a student’s academic performance. Some of the students spend much of there time on cell phones and other electronic devices instead of doing there school work.
Basically none of these devices are bad, but the way we make use of them is improper. It is evident that a student is not likely to stay focused long enough if certain electronic devices are made accessible during class.

School Dress Code


There are many reasons why students should wear uniforms at school. If uniforms are worn in school, it would make the student population less worried about their appearance and students who are less fortunate will not have to try to buy the same clothing brands as students who have the money to do so.
In order for students to focus in a school environment, they need minimal distractions. If they don’t have to focus on what they are going to wear, it allows them the opportunity to concentrate on their education. Additionally, students will then give a respectable impression of themselves instead of portraying themselves as something they are not. For instance, females sometimes show too much skin by wearing little clothing. This, of course, gives the impression that the girl does not value herself and probably concentrates more on impressing others than doing well in school. There many teens out there who hate to wear uniforms, but it is for their benefit. For example, some students dress inappropriate for school and sometimes others might find it impolite.
Uniforms will also allow students to spend much time studying rather then spending their time on shopping. There is no guarantee that a student will become better by wearing a uniform, nevertheless, it would be one less distraction if they do not have to worry about clothes.
Also, school uniforms will save parents’ money because they won’t have to worry about spending a fortune on buying clothing for their children. It is normal for teens nowadays to disagree in wearing uniforms to school because of the brands and styles. Teenagers today now group themselves and worry about who wears what. What a person wears should not be the only thing that identifies them.
“It is good for students to wear uniforms at school because of safety reasons and so that the administration knows who is supposed to be on campus and who is not,” said Ms. Someillan an, English teacher at Piper High. Students should not feel discouraged if they are told to wear uniforms. After all, it is not done to lessen them as people, but to help them in becoming better.

Yes We Should Wear Uniforms to School


We should wear uniforms at piper high school because it will help us in many ways. I also think that if we wear uniforms at school it will make use equal and poor students would not worry about buying clothing brands like the rich students do. I believe that students who wear uniform will improve in school because they won’t have to think about what to wear to school and it will also express themselves, personality and attitude, rather than buying expensive pairs of shoes or a brand name pair of jeans or top.
Uniforms will as well improve a realistic respect favorable impression of one in the students because they will not feel pressure to dress in a certain way. Uniforms will also allow students to spend much time studying rather then spending their time on shopping than those who do not have to wear uniform. Students will go to school earlier because they won’t waste their time trying on outfit s to wear to school. School uniform will save peoples money because parents won’t have to worry about spending fortunes on buying clothing for their children.
It is very normal for teens now days to disagree in wearing uniforms to school because of the brands and styles. Teens today now group themselves and worry about who wears what. In the olden days our grandparents used to wear uniform they didn’t worry about it, it was the style then. In my opinion school uniforms are beneficial because having to wear uniform stops gang members and helps stop violence in the school campus.
There many teens out there who hate to wear uniforms but it is for there benefit. Some students dress inappropriate for school and others don’t like the idea of there clothing because it might be impolite. It’s like when you meet people the first thing you look at is there clothing and the first thing that comes out from your mouth is a complement or you start criticizing them about there dressing it’s the same thing when you talk about school uniform.
Not everybody wants to wear it, like nobody wants to wear what you wear. Nobody wants to wear the same outfit to school every blessed day. But it is important for students because they are going to school to learn not to show off what they wear. It is good to see the other side of them but not when it comes to school. Here is what Miss Someillan had to say about students wearing uniform at school.
Here She said it is good for students to wear uniforms at school because of safety reasons and so that we know who is supposed to be on campus and who is not. They won’t have to worry about what the current style is because everybody will look the same, and students who don’t have a lot of money will not feel left out. She said clothing that is to revealing distracts learning. She wasn’t to sure if uniforms will create unity to the students.

Success Of Happiness


One of Rachel’s Scott’s goals was to make people come together as one and say kind words to each other. In order to continue this chain that Rachel started we can organize a setting where each year as a holiday such as Christmas and Halloween set a day called success of happiness. This holiday will be a day for all youths and grown folks to make at least one or more people feel good about them. To accomplish this we can as well use different programs and materials that are appropriate for the people. We can put on an assembly’s to get involved with our schools.
Only a small act of kindness equals huge impact, just by being honest, compassionate and looking for the best in yourself and the people around you. In one of Rachel’s Scott’s easy she machined how compassion is the greatest form of love humans have to offer.

COMING FROM AFRICA TO US


It’s kind of hard moving from one place to another especially when it’s your country; I come from Africa (Cameroon) there some differences between Cameroon and the U.S. The life there is so hard but people have the time to do what ever they want. But here people who go to school, go to work don’t have time. Students are too busy reading and going to the library mean while parents go to work and come back home late, some don’t even see there families for a week like me and my sister we don’t live together but I’m close to her, we stay a week without seeing each other because she’s too busy.
One other thing is that school in Cameroon is so hard you don’t even want to think about going to school, here school is easy, there many things in school you can do here that you cant do there, I use to be in a dormitory schools if you don’t do what they ask you to do your in big trouble.
Your not allowed to bring cell phones iPods and etc…. cause if you bring them it distracts you in class but here they do what ever they want like disrespect the teachers only a few do that. In Cameroon when you do something wrong weather its at school at home or any where they bit you up just to correct you but here some people call 911 that’s funny. I don’t really have much to say about Cameroon it’s a nice place.
