This is a question that controls most of our life. Sometimes we do things because we have to and other times we do them because it sacrifices us. The difference in my opinion is that when we have to do these things we don't really admire all that surrounds us and the benefit. When we do something we want to do it allows us to take in consideration all that applies with surroundings.

This 4 day weekend for me was very busy I had to take care of my little brother and had a few church groups to attend. I was suppose to work on my rough draft of my essay but I didn't get to it. I had trouble with internet connection and I didn't have a way to get to any local Wi-Fi area. I am planning to work on it today until I finish my rough draft and get it revised tommarow.

Something funny in my opinion is lots of things for example sometimes we laugh at other people's pain.  Sometimes we laugh in awkward moments.  It really is a lot we laugh at. For example this video Try not to laugh https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=%23&ved=0ahUKEwiN6rKj4JnbAhXbHDQIHU_UCM4Qxa8BCCUwAA&usg=AOvVaw0VTJzWxrN8ZFOD4xbU2nov

Taking responsibility for my actions have made an impact in my life.  It has made me mature a bit.  I look back to freshman year and I think,"Why did I do that." Taking responsibility for what I have done also gives me peace,  I don't worry about,"What if people find out. "

I am in the process of my masterpiece it has been difficult to actually work on it, but it is slowly coming along. I have about half of it complete, now I have to put my all into the other half.

Right now we are having all these test because it's the end of the year. Instead of those test we could of worked on our masterpiece because in my opinion this masterpiece presentation will be an amazing opportunity to teacher each other about topics we want to learn more about!

I have had times during my high school career when my counselor has told me, "Keep your problems at home". I understand that we come to school to learn, but everyone has that moment when you just can't function.

Looking back at my journal, I have noticed from the beginning of the school year my thoughts have changed, how I view life. My favorite journal topics are the ones we have to write about whatever we want.  Especially when I have an opinion on a current event or things like that.

If someone where to come up to me and said they were my sibling I would probably be a bit creeped out. I would probably call my mom and ask to clear things up. If it was true I would like to get to know this person and truely find the bond we had missed all these years.

This school year is coming to an end, I can't believe it Junior year will be over in less than a month. This school year has not been the easiest but I would like to finish strong. I am really taking time out of my busy day to dedicate at least 2 or 3 hours to only school work. I understand that I must find a balance between school and church activities. I will be focused more in school with these couple hours actually getting work done.

Violence in life is never necesary or ar least not the "smart choice", but in stories it's what people are fully intertained by. In my opinion it's sad that we have fun with the failure or pain of others. In the story Fahrenheit 451 violence is serves the story because of all these mysteries happening.

This weekend I had planned to read, but somethings got in the way my bestfriend went missing Thursday night I right after school I went all over looking for him until two in the morning and had no luck. Saturday we started again the search at seven in the morning. He was safely found Saturday afternoon. I wasn't feeling very well because of everthing going on I slept for a bit, then I had to get up again to take care of my Godmother who is battling cancer. I had a very busy weekend therefore I didn't get to my reading.

The imagery in Fahrenheit 451 with the burning of the books portrayed as birds was my perspective applicable because the burning pages look as if they are wings of a bird falpping up and down.

Today I probably passed by more than 75 people and honestly greeting only about 5 at most. It's something that just feels uncomfortable especially with a stranger. I personally just smile at people know words just a smile, even if it's a stranger. Because I feel that a smile from someone you don't know, can change your mood at least a bit. I hang around with people who are very friendly and make conversations with strangers and I look up to them. I feels very nice when someone says, " Hello." It makes my attitude change.

Have you ever seen people crying in the middle of class for a reason you are not aware of? I have and I suppose others have too. But when it happens it's akward, especially if we dont know or talk to the person. That akward moment where you look away cause you feel bad. But why not take action. Many people are thinking to kill themselves because they feel like knowone cares. Why aren't we the ones saying," What's wrong? Are you ok?" Why is it that we tend to just act like nothing is happening.  This Sunday I was walking to my Godmother's house and as I approched a bridge I saw a girl standing on the top of the bridge looking down I could hear her crying. I was unaware what to do. Why can't we be educated on things like this instead of learning a bunch of different things we dont need! Why not teach us how to help people feel less depressed? Or even just the fact of going up to people if another situation occurs again. When I got closer to rh...

The theme od the pedestrian is that we need ti be wary of technology. Bradbury get that message through the focus of technology taking control of us. The tone of the story is very serious trying to convince us of what our world has turned into. I believe that people are not seen walking anymore in 2018 because we are honestly lazy, we take the car even to go 2 blocks away. Its just the way society is changing and we all follow along. Self driving cars will only make it worse. Less people will be seen outside rhey will just put the direction and arrive without any hesitation. All this new technology will give teens more freedom. They will have less precaution on what they are doing. It will lead to more isolation and independence.

Mmm.... Have we ever thought of how this weather we are having will change in 50-100 years from now. At my location it's pooring right now. But I wonder how would weather change years from now. I personally think that our weather would become hotter. I dont know why but thats what I think. Also think back 5 years from today knowing is the same the trends nor the communication. Imagine how it would change 50 years from now.

In my personal experience I like to take walks to calm myself down from moments of frustration. It's a moment I get to be by myself and to think of the pros and cons of my decisions and how I would feel about the decision. I believe that Santa Maria isnt the best place to take a walk at least for me there is so much around us that it would be hard to concentrade at least for me. I like taking walks in places where most likely not know anybody. Also in bridges of high places where I could see most of the town. Let's walk without destination to concentrate in our decisions in Life❤

Wealthy people pay to get special services, because they have the opportunity to do it. But people like us people in the middle class dont have thjs option that why we come to a public school and we dont get the treatment other people do. I have personally seen people in our school like this their parents have money and they are always very focused, but they sometimes have excuses why they dont have their work done. To me its unfair their is a lot of people tjat go much more worst things than what they go through bjt since they have money they can get that privledge. For example firefighters they are hired to put out fires but they also have that since of if they have more money we have to go to them first because they will pay more. Its something commonly see the interest of more money has taken over most of this new era.
