I would say the most exciting thing that ever happen to me was when it was my best friend birthday y and we went to CB Smith park is was so much FUN!!!!!!!!!! It wasn't alot of people which I think that made it fun. But anyways it was me my beat Phylicia, Joi, and Imani ,and Tasha,Brandon, and bog head Jordan. But yeah we was at the park so we was just chillin and it was HOT! At first was throwing water balloons at each other running around and just having fun like that old days,because we was so involved in sports and other things thought high school. So when it was time to eat we sitting down and we trying to act mature, but there is always Brandon and Jordan trying to be funny. so act first the was throwing food at each other. then next thing you know that we was throwing food at each other. In then back of my mind I was saying that we shouldn't be throwing food around. But I was like what the hell with it.

So while we throwing food at each other I was looking at my friends and said to myself that this was a wonderful time that i'm having and we should do this more offend. But that not the end of the story, the park was closing down so we decided that we should go to her house and we did at first I was beat from early from that day. Then we got all dress up and went to the movies on Main Street. Being with Brandon and Jordan we always get into trouble with somebody but it was always fun. So what they did was during the movie they started throwing M & M's at people at first they was like what ever then they made a mistake and hit this big guy. He was huge!!!!!!!!!!! Te guy got up walk to our section where we was then we was trying to act like we was watching the movie but Brandon had this big smile and his face so the guy grab him by the collar and stared fussing at Brandon the next thing you know that we was kick out the movies. But the night didn't ended there that another story to tell. :)

Write about a belief you've discarded. Talk about why you no longer believe in this belief?





To tell you the truth I can't remember a belief that I can I discarded. I can tell you a story that my brother said that he don't believe in God anymore. I can recall a time when I ask him that what made you decide that and he told me that all this recall on this finding Jesus and saying that it confuse him. So I told him that he didn't really believe in him that much hat he didn't have faith i him at all. When he came out the closet and told our grandma!. When I tell you that she hit the roof. She stared to pray all around the house. And started calling the Lord in praying. It was a big mess going arund the house. Because my grandma is very old fashion and when she was going up you woulnd'nt hear an anything going on like this going back in the day. My grandma is 82 years old so you would think about it.



Now a year later my grandma had accepted that my brother doesn't believe in God but sometimes she try to put the faith on him but my brother refuse to hear what my grandma tries to do

What holidays does your family celebrate (like Christmas, Kwanzaa, or Hanukkah)? What do you do on those holidays?

The Holiday that my family celebrate is Christmas. Some people think that Christmas is all about getting gifts from people.But that is not the purpose of the holiday. It all began When Mary and Joseph. Well anyways God had sent an angel to Mary and told her that God will make it able to give Mary a child. So when Mary got pregnant with Jesus which was God son. Joseph thought that Mary had cheated in him because back in those days it was not allowed for a women to get pregnant before she get married. Well anyways Joseph was vet upset that Mary was carrying another man child because he didn't believe Mary story. So one night Joseph sleeping and the same angel that told Mary about Gods plan of giving Mary a son. After Joseph seen the angel he now believe that it was God doing. So that when Joseph got Mary pack up their things and stared moving toward the north star. One night Mary gave birth to a little boy in a little shack. Thing that when the present began to form all about.

Christmas is all about giving and not receiving. My family celebrate Christmas like we all get together at my grandmother house and we exchange gifts. Then we all get around laugh joke eat drink and just have a ball with the family. Oh let me tell you about dinner my mom cooks this big ham well soul food and we all eat together as a famliy .

Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.
Heroes may seem old-fashioned today. Many people are cynical and seem to enjoy discrediting role models more than creating new ones or cherishing those they already have. Some people, moreover, object to the very idea of heroes, arguing that we should not exalt individuals who, after all, are only flesh and blood, just like the rest of us. But we desperately need heroes—to teach us, to captivate us through their words and deeds, to inspire us to greatness.
Adapted from Psychology Today, "How To Be Great! What Does It Take To Be A Hero?"
Assignment:
Is there a value in celebrating certain individuals as heroes? Plan and write a blog in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

In my opinion role models are not old fashion. my role model is my cousin from what i can tell she is no where old fashion. she is sweet funny and not all super heros is like that. The number one reason why my cousin is mt super hero is that what she went thought to become a RN at Jacjon Hospital. she cae from the hood. From both parents being on the dope. When both parents didnt see her off when she went prom homecoming. I can recall a time when she was telling me how she came in the world how when her mother would do dope right in front of her and when she wouls confront her mother about it she would just completly denine that she was doing it.

Right now im going though the same thing right now but not as serve as her. when sometimes my mom would leave home and cme home and be drunk sometimes i would cry myself to sleep and ask God why he did that to me. And it will be times when i would call my cousin and explain things what im going though and she would tell me just pray and God would come though for me. And that he would amke a way for me. so do i think that all heros are old fashion my answer is no.

Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the prompt below.
People are happy only when they have their minds fixed on some goal other than their own happiness. Happiness comes when people focus instead on the happiness of others, on the improvement of humanity, on some course of action that is followed not as a means to anything else but as an end in itself. Aiming at something other than their own happiness, they find happiness along the way. The only way to be happy is to pursue some goal external to your own happiness.
Are people more likely to be happy if they focus on goals other than their own happiness? Plan and write a blog in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

I think in my opinion that is true. People are happy basic and their focus. For example base on my happiness is base on my goals. base on how i i feel is base on the mood that im in also why not people are not base on their happiness that doent make any sense. If i person is base on their happiness because of threir goals why not i think that a person should be happy ut also if they have a goal then they should be happy but not to happy because that they are gominhg to lose focus on their gaols. just like me right now im happy well what you call content with myself but right now i think that im going to be more happy when i graduate. so yes i think that the promt is true. Peolpel can be ahppy grom many other things. Sometimes i base my happiness on tghe way im feeling.

Describe the last vacation or holiday you took. what made it special? How long ago did it occur? Does having a fun necessarily have to involve a certain place or certain people? Hypothetically speaking, which would you rather take, a three day holiday spent at home, but with your favorite people to spend with your favorite people in the world, or three days anywhere you choose in the world (all expenses paid), but with no one you really know well.
The last hoilday vacation i took that was special i took was when i was last summer vacation. Me and my famliy went to Thomasville, Geogria. we had so much fun. My family in Miami are totally different when it comes down the living enviorment. Mt famliy in miami they are so stuck up. But my famliy in Thomasville they are so well rounded. the dont care what people think of them.When saw what a difference i came to relized that wow we cant be like that. I remember when we was at my great aunt house and my cousin wanted to drive my uncle truck. so my uncle said yes so everybody gathered in the yard. reminded you that my cousin is only 10 years , so when they got into the truck that my cousin press the gas. when i tell you that the truck jerk my uncle almost had a heart attack boy was that funny.

Another reason why i wouldnt trade another vacation my family alone dont spend much time with each so when we do spin time with each other it is a priceless time with each .
