Fourth Graders Speak For The Trees

        After reading the article about the power of fourth graders I realized how easy it is to change our world for the better. All it takes is people to be browsing online and skim past an online petition and then  sign it or click the 'I agree" button, to change the world. Especially 14 fourth grade kids, nobody would ever think that would be possible, but with the help of the internet and the website with all the petitions it can be achieved in less then a week. Proving that living in a democratic society can truly help our world for the better. 

BOOK THAT I'M GOING TO DO

        Hello, I have chosen the books that have intrigued me, but first I must point out the books that I was not taken with and I must point out their flaws in a purely academic way. 
        A Discovery Of Witches: This book was slightly too mystical for my tastes, Vampires and Witches are something that doesn't quite cut it. 
        Outliers: This book seamed a little boring for my tastes, just from reading the summary business giants, sports stars, and musicians are fine enough but not when there written about factually.
        Now for the amazing part, there are two books that I really thought I'd like! 
        The Book Thief:  This book looked great because I like books a lot and I also enjoy the World War 2 theme that goes with it.
        Lord Of The Flies: I think I would like this book because I have always been taken with books about survival, the wilderness, mystery, and a little bit of suspense to top it off.
        The book that I have chosen is definitely Lord Of The Flies, mainly because of my utter fascination with people surviving in a situation that is life threatening.

A VIDEO: GRASS FLIPS

       This video portrays how individuals can go beyond the limits, set goals, and have fun while being active. It shows kids that if they want, they can, and encourages them to stay fit and run around.

Euthanasia Is As Great As It Gets

        Unfortunately most of the worlds population can't get this simple concept going! Lets think about this, "Grandpa" is dying, and not the kind of peaceful dying, the "in a lot of pain, holy balls I want to die faster" kind of dying. Now a very easy way to end all this suffering "Grandpa" is going through, is to simply "put him down", just like a cat or dog. Would you rather see your beloved Grandpa slip away painfully and in an agonizing state, or would you like him to pass away peacefully? All you have to do is give him a little more sleeping pills and then he's gone, very happily I might add. People take a look at this and the first thing they think is "That's not okay because it's still murder!", now as true as this is it can also be avoided by a very easy method. The Government gives Doctors, and numerous healthcare experts the right to "put down" anyone that is in a state of severe suffering and/or is near death. That way a random person can just barge in and kill someone, then state it was for that person, so he wouldn't suffer. As well as the fact that doctors have many ways to exterminate people very painlessly and comfortably that many people at home have no option to. So, Doctors have control of the situation and only people who are near death and in a lot of pain have an easy way out. Simple, effective, comfortable, and easy to handle, this is clearly the way to go in handling any sort of uncomfortable situation such as painful death experiences. 

People Need New Limits

Kids theses days?! As time goes on less and less boundaries are provided for children, leaving them torn of what seems right and what seems wrong. If society truly wants to advance then they should learn that my generation and lower then my lacks respect of anyone but themselves. Although beating or hitting kids is completely out of the question, that doesn't mean discipline of a sort is out of order. Some kids at the age of 8 or so when they do something wrong they get at most a talking too. Something like that purely doesn't set in too a young child. There needs to be a new more improved way of disciplinary actions toward kids or just plain people that are immature and downright bratty. So the answer is harder discipline or an alternative? I'll let you decide. 

Its Okay To Be Gay

Same-sex marriage should be undoubtedly legal. this is Canada and 2012, free speech and free will have been allowed for decades! The fact that pushing religion onto people is allowed and same-sex marriage isn't is just unacceptable. If the majority of the population was homosexuals then opposite-sex marriages wouldn't be allowed. The reasons are purely unjust. Just because the Bible says homosexuality isn't right doesn't mean it's true, especially with more and more people becoming atheist. People must start to accept everyone for who they are, or else there will not be anyone to accept. These are the reasons why same-sex marriage should be legalized!

Marijuana: Safer Than You Think

Marijuana should not be legalised! Take it from someone who has had personal affairs with this substance. If Marijuana is legalized the cost would sky rocket, going up to easily thousands of dollars. Right now great produce costs about 10-20 dollars a gram, that's because people wouldn't pay any more for something a random man grew and for something that could get you fined, If "weed: was legalized crappy "erb" would cost about $40 per gram and great "refer: would go up to $1000 per gram. Not to mention the incredibly long wait to get it, since it would be in such high demand there would be lines longer then lines in the bathroom of an all you can eat buffet. As well kids wouldn't want it any more. Children get into illegal things for the rush and the excitement, but not because their dad's into it. Since everyone is smoking kids would get into crack or some other illegal substance rather then stick with the very safe and not very harmful "chiba". That is why marijuana should be illegal.

her hair was like a sphinx

the class was like a poorly tuned guitar, no matter who played it it would still sounds bad

devons eyes glimmered like the sun

my nose shinned like a slide

the rabbit danced on the grass like a fingers on a guitar

the man's face was like a horse

callan's biceps were like huge boulders

the racists word stung like a bee

the bird sang its song as delicately as a wisp of silk

the morning air was absorbed into my body like water into a sponge
