I feel like the world has gone crazy with drugs‚ alcohol‚ and school. Drugs effect everyone from young to old‚ rich to poor‚ and man or woman. When people drink it hurt them‚ their families‚ and the earth. School is the most addictive drug because we are force-fed it from age five to age twenty- five and it needs to stop. Changing the world would be very difficult‚ but if I could I would get rid of drugs‚ alcohol‚ and school. Drugs effect everyone in a big or a small city in really doesn’t matter

The way I see myself ten years ahead of now is not something I often think about. To tell you the truth‚ it scares me a little to know that in one short decade I will be twenty six years old‚ and that my years of youth are coming to an end. One thing I’m certain of‚ is that if God gives me the opportunity to get to that age‚ I will make the most of my years and put all of my effort to become a successful‚ happy woman. Contemplating on the future doesn’t always come easy since no one really knows

A Musical Comparison‚ Then and Now My favorite composer and musician is Trent Reznor. Mr. Reznor has been the solitary mind behind the “band” Nine Inch Nails as well as a creating force within many other musical ensembles. He has been referred to as “the most vital artist in music”. When considering historical figures in music‚ I tend to recognize similarities more within the life and works of Robert Schumann than any other. First and foremost‚ Schumann was a musical master of the Romantic

Revolution Girl-Style Now! Riot Grrrls were originally born out of the "Punk" scene where rebellion was expressed in attitude‚ appearance‚ style‚ and music. Defining Riot Grrrl is much like defining Punk. There is no central organization‚ no authoritive definition‚ just an attitude concerned with pointing out social hypocrisy and empowering people to "do it yourself"‚ creating a culture of their own when they see that the mainstream media does not reflect their concerns or provide outlets

I feel like studying the Old Testament has given me a better understanding of all the events in the Old Testament as well as shone some light on the New Testament. I feel like it gives me further explanation and since I am a person that always

Heather Morin Book Review: Getting to YES vs. Your Guide to Improve Your Negotiation Skills Greatly 09/26/2012 I started reading the book‚ Your Guide to Improve Your Negotiation Skills Greatly by Thomas Anderson which I felt the introduction was executed brilliantly by using the example of a rental property. The negotiation process according to the author is similar to that of the landlord/tenant relationship; where each individual must hold up their part of the deal for the rental property. The

Studying is not that hard‚ we just need to go back were theres no Net‚ wifi. Stuying old ways are more effective but time consuming. But if you want to learn it will surely take time to do so. We cant literally blame people who invented this kind of entertainment since their objective is for the great and easy way of work. It is us the people who take advantage or maybe lazy or get addicted to it. We must have control. Like as if the government will control our time usage in wifi. (repeat) Studying
