Human beings do not need to eat meat in order to maintain good health because they can get all their food needs from meatless products and meatless substances. A vegetarian diet is just as healthy as a diet containing meat. Choose a side and argue for or against the opinion above. Do humans really need to eat meat?

I do think that humans need to eat meat to get there health. Humans should eat everything they can, but thats is good for there body && for them selfs also. Its true vegetarians are healthier people more than people who enjoy eatting meat. But people who do eat meat they get more nutrition out of it, because they are giving the body what its craving and also whats good for it. Without meat i think people dont have the same enegry, but this is all i can actualoly think of.

Many people believe that women make better parents than men and that this is why they have the greater role in raising children in most societies. Others claim that men are just as good as women at parenting. Which do you believe is true and why? Are men just as capable as women to raise a child or do women have a special touch that men dont? Write a blog expressing your point of view. Give reasons for your answer.

Well i personally believe that women would make better parents than men. Women have those motherly insticts and know whats wrong. Its like a 7 sense should you say. Men on the other hand dont have that sense. But both men and women can be a better parent if they really try. Its not like one is going to fail, its just they have a different point of view. Either way when the kid is older then you will realize how good of a parent either women or men are. Like i said women have a special touch, but some men (not all) have that special touch also.

Should criminals be punished with lengthy jail terms or re-educated and re-habituated, using community service programs for instance, before being reintroduced to society? Why do you believe this? Which punishment is more cruel, the reprogramming of a human being or locking him in a cage?

The criminals should be punished with all they can think of and that its sevir and they realize what they did was wrong and shouldnt be left of the leash so quick. Because either way those people wont change. They will remine the same no matter how much they punish them. Once a criminal always one. All the programs they think of is wrong or wont make a difference if they do it or not. Reintroducing them into society wont do nothing. Just make the people that live around them look at the criminal wrong and no trust him nor treat him well. Its my point of view. The most cruel thing for a human is being locked up in a cage for god knows how long and if the case was that bad

What is the most meaningful thing that has happened in your life? Was it positive or negative? How did it affect you? Is it something that you feel has altered your way of thinking? Is it something you feel that will be as meaningful 10 years from now? Does anyone know about it? If so, what is their reaction and take on the event? Where they involved? Write sucka!

Well the truth is that i cant think of anything right now, i may have had a meaningful thing in my life but it hasnt come to mind so right now i shouldnt know what to say or write. Am pretty sure that regardless what it was, it must have made a huge affect in my life one way or another even if it was a good thign or a bad thing. I take in everythig in my life but i dont regreat anything of it. Nothing so far as had that affect of altering my way of thinking so far in my life. Yeah somethings get to me and i stop thinking how i normally do, but after a while i start to see that thats not right and i being to start being myself once again. Some things stay with you forever no matter how good or bad it was. Its going to be a memory either in your heart or deep down in your mind/dreams so maybe it will still mean something 10 years from now. Umm... well a few people know a little bit of my life so i guess they know something that means alot to me but just cant remember at the current moment. Some of them did have to do with it but its done and over with.

If you could have one super power, what would it be? What would you do with it? Is your super power something that is realistic? How do you think people would react to your power? Is this a power that you’ve always wanted or did you just make it up right now?

If i had a super power, it would probably be Mind Reading. I would be reading peoples mind, gathering up information ahead of time and most likely keep myself out of trouble and try to understnad the situation. My super power isnt something realistic but i wish it was, because that would be so great if any kind of super power was realistic. People would be amazed of my super power and try to figure out things and try to see if its real or not. This super power is something ive been wanting for a while now, i think since maybe my 9th grade year when i first read twilight and loved that power that Edward Cullen has. :)

When am upset or depressed i normally tend to stay quiet, if its something big then i would start crying. My routine would be hang around my friends but in a part that am by myself alone where no one is there to talk to me or bug me. If i would to start crying i would get the person who i trust the most that is around and take them with me to the bathroom and tell them whats wrong with me and to see if they can help me out. Depending on the situation i would take it out on someone, its happen a few couple of times but it wasnt a big deal out of it. If i did take a out on a person, after i feel better or realze what i did i would talk to them and tell them sorry. Some people that know me very well and know my problems know how i deal with it and they understand my reasons to do it that way. In the other hand people that am not to friendly with they dont know why i act like that but they get worried tho. I ttry to avoid my family when am like that because i know that ill blow up on them and i would get in trouble and ill just get worst or make the smallest problem into a very big one that maybe i cant get out of. Yes, they are tolerant. They ask what happens once if i dont give them a answer they will leave me alone and never ask again.

If you can have 24 hours to, be whomever you choose and do whatever you want; who would you be? Why would you be this person? Describe in detail what you would do as this person. What kind of experiences would you be able to have as this person that you would not as yourself. Remember you only have 24 hours, so be realistic.

Well if that would be the case i would love to be the President of The United States of America. The reason why i would be this person is because i think i can change our country, like i know what people complain about and what affects them so i would try to make a difference and change things to help the people out. What i would do is try to fix its economy, cause right now we arent in the best condition to be wasting any type of money, that would be my frist action. Second i would try to bring back the troops sooner than expected, cause right now them being there in pointless and they shouldnt be there, they should be back home with there familys. The type of experience that i would have gotten out of it was that i could see if its that easy as i think to be the President and be able to run a country.

If you had a sibling or best friend who you really cared about and hung out with constantly and suddenly they began dating the most annoying person on earth; how would you handle the situation? Would you tell them you can’t stand their new girlfriend/boyfriend? Would you stop hanging out with them all together? Would you try to sabotage the relationship? Why or why not?

The truth i really dont know what i would do if my best friend got a girl friend and she was the most annoying girl in the whole wide world. Am not sure how i would handle the situation, at frist most likely ill be very made but that isnt my problem, that isnt my relationship to be worrying about so much but i will keep an eye out for my friend and make sure he doesnt get hurt. Of course i would tell him that i cant stand his new girl friend, now on the other hand how he will take it am not sure but i wouldnt care cause i told him how i felt about it and he shouldnt and has no right to get mad at me just for telling him how i feel about her. I wouldnt stop hanging out with my friend just cause i cant stand the person, that is so stupid i would just ignore the girl and act liike i dont know her. I wouldnt try to sabotage that realtionship due to the reason that i am a nobody to mess up anybodys relationships they will eventually realize if there relationship is right or wrong

My thoughts about valentine is like whatever. Valentine isnt a big deal for i think its just another day in the world in which people get to show there true feelings without somebody taking it in th wrong way or hurt someones feelings. Another thing i think about it is that its a day where people can show off the gifts they have recived on that and how happy they feel. I kinds do have a valentine its a really weird thing on how that person became my valentine but i care about that person alot and well i couldnt ask for a better one other than Eric Martinez :) My plans for valentines day is to go to my friends softball game cheer on our school and just spend time with my valentine.

What do you consider the most brutal thing you can do to another human being? Is this something you’ve seen done? Why is this the MOST brutal? How can it be prevented from happening? How much of a reality to think it really is in relation to you? Do you think your concept of brutality will change as you get older.

I think the most brutal thing i can do to a person is lie to them and hurt there feelings. Its life of course ive seen it happen, we are all humans and that is one of many things people cant help and end up lying someway or another and that will hurt the person no matter how little it is. To me its the most brutal because you trust a person and yet you never expect for that person to lie and hurt you in a way that you would expect for someone else to do that. I really dont think it can be prevented from happing, because there is not one person in this world that has ever lied even if its the smallest lie; that lie would hurt somebody eventually. Cause not to long ago i just wen thru something like that and well it didnt end up well. What happen to me ill take it as a life experience and thats what makes me grow up, take responsability and start standing up and avoid getting in the middle of things that i really shouldnt get in the middle of things. I think my concept will, because the older i get the more different i think and i start seeing life in a new point of view than how i see it now days

If a situation occurred that forced you to choose between loosing your sight, hearing, mobility or intelligence which would you choose and why? Describe in detail why you would choose this affliction over the others. Death is not an option. You must choose one and describe why.

The truth i would not choose none, but in this case i have to pick that it would be my mobility. why? Am not sure but between them three that one is the least worst one in my opinion. I love to hear music, be able to hear people talk to me, i love to hear the enviornment around me and well my intelligence cause i know i may not be the most intelligent person but i think i am a smart in my own way and know alot of things. Mobility is not a big deal to me cause i am a very lazy and i love to lay down and not to move at all. But its not a matter of laughter. Mobility is just as bad as any other but if life had me paralyz then there would be nothing i can do and just try to keep on living life no matter how hard things get and try to live a life that would make me happy .

Describe an occasion where you attempted something and failed. What happened? How did it make you feel? Did it discourage you from trying again? Did it make you want to try again? How did people react to your failure? Did the failure disappoint you?Now describe a time where you attempted something and succeeded. What happened? How did it make you feel?Did it make you want to try again? How did people react to your success? Now describe which of the two feelings, failure or success, teaches you more. Did the joy of succeeding make you want to continue trying or did the shame of failure act to strengthen your drive?

I attempted to skateboard and i failed miserably worst than Alexandra. Well my friend told me than he will hold on to me and teach me how to skateboard, well unfortunatley i believed him so i got on after i got on i realized that he wasnt holding on to me and i fell on my butt. One it made me feel stupid and two i was feeling alot of pain, worst pain i have ever felt. There are some days that i dont bother even thinking about getting on it and other days i just suck it up and get on it. Like i said i have my days when i want to try it out and many times i even forget that i fell and hurt myself. Those people (meaning my friends) had a blast laughing at me, they were to busy making fun of me and rolling around in the floor and pointing at me. In a way yes because i thought i was able to do it but in the other hand i know that nobody is perfect. I attempted to have a burping competetion with Oren and some other friends from jrotc. I was the only girl playing with the boys and i won! everybody burp and i was the last one to go all of a sudden this burp came out of me and everybody was like how did that get out of her little body. It made me feel awesome and surprised at what i was able of doing. I would never want to try that again cause after i burp i ended up throwing up. People were so surprised that there was dead silence in the room. I believe that failure teachs you more cause it makes you want to try again till you are able of doing it

If you assure yourself one wish that would alter the rest of your life what would it be? Why would you choose this? How do you think it would positive affect you? What negative things could come from this wish? How do you think it would affect the people around you?

The one wish that i know would alter the rest of my life would be that ill be able to read peoples mind. Being able to read people minds would be great and helpfull. You would know what the person is thinking and if its a bad thing you can avoid it from happening. I would be a positive affect on me because i would be able to know everything that is going on in that persons mind and it can give me the chance to change the outcome of the situation. The negative affect would be that that may be invading peoples mind and there privecy and not many people like when people invade there personal space. I really dont think it would affect the people around me, and if it would then i really dont know how it would affect them in any way.

Imagine you find a time machine that allows you to change 3 events that occurred in your past. What three moments would you change the outcome to? Why did you choose these particular moments? What happened? How would u change the outcome? What do you think would happen as a result of your change?
Is there any advice that you would give yourself at any particular moment in your life? If so, when? What would you say? How do u think you (in the past) would react?

The three events that i would like to change the outcome of would be one, how i let things go with flaka and not stop it from the beinging when she started going out with mathew. Two, not telling the person that i like and have a super / major crush on a little to late about my feelings and now am stuck in a love triangle and i want to get out of it but i cant let go for some reason. Three, change everything that had happen in the year 2008. I choose this three particular moments because right now those are the three events that bugs me and eats me inside knowing that i could have done something different and maybe the outcome could have been the one i have been wanting for. What happen was that i thought that i was doing the right thing but i was wrong, i did everything backwards and now am stuck with something that makes me a little unhappy some days and yet at the same time makes me happy. Right now am trying to change the outcome, i know that i may have a chance to change it and i may not, but am still gonna try cause i know what i want and i know what makes me happy and ama fight for it. Things right now would have been so different maybe there could have been less drama and everybody around me and my group of friends will feel a little better and happier of how things are. Do what you feel and dont be scared of the outcome cause love doesnt fail you people do, and never give hope in what you want and dream for. I would have said it right in the peak of before the dramam started. Am not sure how the past would have reacted, i hope that it would react in a good way or maybe just a little bit better for me at least or even better for my friends

Many people often use the new year as a catalyst for change in their life. This is frequently referred to as a “new years resolution”. Common new year’s resolution include quitting smoking, losing weight and starting workout routines. Do you have a new year’s resolution? What is it? Why is it important? How long have you been dealing with it? How will you achieve this goal? What can keep you from not achieving it? How will you avoid the things that will keep you from succeeding?

Yes i do have a new years resolution. Its a pretty weird and not common resolution but its something i mdid with my friends. My new years resolution is not to grab peoples (friends and family) ears. The reason its so important is to see if i can go one full month without grabbing any ears, cause normally i grab my friends and familys ears all the time every day. I've had this fedish since i was a little girl and the truth its harder than i expected. People say i cant go one full month without grabbing ears and its truth i really cant just in 2-3 days i have grabbed friends ears without noticing and when i do its like damn!!! i cant believe i broke it already. but i keep on trying anyways just to prove myself that i can do it. I think the way i can achieve my goal is by trying to keep my hands away from ears and keep myself intertainted with something so i wont touch or grab them. By not thinking about it and just doing it, cause its an instict that i have, i really dont notice it at times but i just have to keep my mind on something else.

What do you want more than anything this Christmas (or holiday season). What would be the perfect gift for you? Would it come from someone specific? Why is it so perfect? Why do you want it so bad? Does anyone know that this is what you want? Is it something tangible or is it abstract?

The truth what i really want for christmas is alot of money, cash or doe however you like to call it. My perfect gift for me can be anything between money, clothes or a CAR ! Most likely where it will come from would be from my parents or any family members or maybe my friends. It is perfect because thats what i would really like for this christmas but if i dont get it atleast something like that i wouldnt mind, its the thought that counts for this holiday and i would be really happy of whatever gift i get this christmas. I want it so bad because i really need money to buy things my parents refues to get me and well clothes cause i want to upgrade my closet adn change my style just a little bit. The only people that know what i want is my parents, my sister and some of my closest friends. hopefully they get me what i want. Well the truth i am not sure if its tangible or abstract depending on how you see it.

What is the most stressful situation in your life? What in your life at the moment is causing you the most anxiety? Do you feel that this problem has a resolution. Is the resolution something that you can live with? If you could resolve it your way, how would you do so? Is this problem something your parents know about? If not, would you like them to know about it? Who do you think you can turn to to help you resolve this issue?

The most stressful situation in was life was today. Today in JROTC we had a informal inspection and there was alot on the line if anything went wrong today we were going to lose out gold star and colonel brown would be on ous till we graduate.The problem did have a resolution and it was that we were confident that we were going to do well and that we needed to stay calm nd just be prepared for whatever came to our way, and practice it for a really long time. I am really happy and pleased of the resolution, i am pretty proud of the outcome and i can most definently live with it. If it was my way it would have been to have everything prepared ahead of time, practice all the briefings everyday and just calm down and hope that everything goes well. Well my dad did kinda have an idea of what i was doing today but he didnt understand that gravity i we would've failed, because today was a very important day for the pariot battalion. The only people i can turn to to help me resolve the problem would be the other staff memebers.

Do you think that the things you feel should be improved to make coming to school more enjoyable are realistic?

The three things i hate about school is Security, Class time and last but not least people that are loud and annonying. The three things that keep me from enjoying the learning experience is my cell phone, my itouch and of course my crazy friends. There can be many things that can change mu attitude towards school, am a very simple person, with a few changes ill be happy one of them can be that my most boring classes can be the shortes one or when they kick out the annoying kids of the classroom when they ask stupid questions due to the fact cause they dont listen. I really do think that they should improve that, even tho it can never come true but it would be really nice that it would. I do have my days when i enjoy school alot and thats why cause the day goes by really fast, no matter how boring class was or how annoying people got in class.

Who is your best friend? Why do you consider this person your best friend? What did they do to earn this place in your life? Do you believe that you will be friends with this person when you leave high school? How often do you see each other? Has anything ever happened to test your friendship? What would it take for you not to be friends with this person anymore? Have you ever been this close to someone and have it go wrong on you?

My bestfriend is Oren Courtny Camejo! I consider this person my best friend because him and me get alone super well and we have alot of things in common. He earned this place in my life because when we were in 9th grade him and i were having trouble times and no matter what would happen we both would be there for each other and try to make each other happy. I know i will still be best friends with Oren when i leave high school. We are planning on attending the same college and the best thing about it is that we want to get a apartment together. We see each other everyday. His class is close to mine so we always see each other. On the weekends i always go to his house if not we go out somewhere together. Hmm... not that i can think of right now, yeah sometimes we tend to stop talking every once in a while but thats because we need our space and dont want to mess up our friendship. The one thing that would take for me not to be friends with him anymore would be that he did me wrong, lied to me, and on top of that be a hypocrite. I have never been so close to someone before, yet i love him to death and i would do anythign for him like i know he would do anythign for me. This is my first time being so close to someone, and until now it hasn't gone wrong on me and i hope it never does.

What about you do people not understand? What part of your personality do you feel is misunderstood? How can it be corrected? What can you do to fix it? Is it a negative thing? Do you stress about it? Please be descriptive.
What people do not understand about me is my personality according to them, why because they say they have never met a girl that acts the way i act. I think i act normal i just dont know why they say that. I think that the part of my personality is misunderstood is my humor. Many of my friends most of the time dont understand it, i wish i knew why cause many other friends do, many cause its the boys who understand it. All the girls that am hanging out with right now are to stuck up now. I wish i knew why cause before they weren't like that. I really dont wanna change nothing of my personality, i think its fine the way it is, i really dont care if people like it or not. I see no way it which it should be corrected. There is nothing i can do to fix it. Like i said i like it and thats what counts if it makes me happy everything is okay! My personality isn't a negative thing, never has been and never will be. I never stress about it, all i do about it laugh about it cause that how i normally keep myself intertain. Some times things my be wierd so i come out of no where with my humor and make almost all the people around me laugh.

Is there someone that you would really like to say something to? Write a letter to a person expressing something you can’t bring yourself to tell them in person. They don’t have to be someone you know personally. Is there someone you like, but you’re too embarrassed to tell them personally? Write the letter to them (do not use real names in this case) and tell them how you feel. Express yourself as honestly and as deeply as you can. Your letter can be to a family member, friend, celebrity or politician. It doesn’t matter if they are alive or not. What matters is that you express yourself as fully as possible. Tell them a secret that you’ve been longing to tell them for a long time.

Well finally i got the guts to tell you everything now! You have been one of a few amazing people i have met in my whole life. Yeah , i know we may have the same interest or well for this case most of them. But ever since i meet you, like all i want to do is chill with you and get to know you better, cause i refuse to believe all the rumors they say about you. Whenever i see you i know that i dont act my normal self, but its because of you B. I have decieded to prove to you that i can be someone that you can trust and like for who they are and not to be worrying that they want to get or score with you. I told you how i felt before, i felt so stupid for telling you cause i thought you felt the same way. But when you told me that you dont see me that way i felt like a huge cup of water fell on me. My heart skipped a beat and all i wanted to do is hide, but yet yopu keep on leding me on and tell me " I still have one more year with you " i wonder what is it that you mean with that, i asked you so many times what you mean with it and all you tell me is you have alot of time to put things in place. Ugh!!! i wish i can just get a few days with you to show you everything i can provided you, but yet your always around with your home boys and i cant berly even have a normal convo. with you. I hope with this letter you will understand me a little bit more now. B i will do everything possible to get one shot with you, i have one more year left i will do everything i can.
love,
Carmen aka Kee-Mers :)

How important is religion to you? Do you feel that it is something that should determine who the next president of the United States should be? Do you feel that there is such a thing as a “wrong” religion? Is your religion the “right” one?

Religion isnt that important to me. I go to church ever once in a while when i remember or sleep over a friends who which goes to church EVERY sunday no matter what in the morning. Other than that i dont go. I do think that religion shouldnt determine anything about who will be the next president of the United States should be. I think that what determines the person who will be the next president should be on there actions and speeches, religion should never get in the way, yes its important to respect everybodys religion but it shouldnt be the thing that determines who will be the next president of the United States. I say that every religion is RIGHT, in this world there shouldnt be a wrong religion, everybody is entitled to belive in someone or something, no matter how lunny, crazy, or stupid it may sound. If thats what the person belives in then its right. My religion is the right one for me. i dont know about anybody else, i belive in my god and thats what matters to me, people can think other wise but it really doesnt matter to me.

Bailout Vote, VP Debate Hangs Over Campaigns

http://elections.foxnews.com/2008/09/29/bailout-vote-vp-debate-hangs-campaigns/

On monday Obama was in a campaign on and Biden was getting ready for the vice president debate on thursday, McCain and Palin were attending a rally in Ohio.Voters are consumed with the flailing U.S economy and McCain and Obama are pounding that issue. McCain says he can restore financial oversight while slashing wasteful spending and cutting taxes on individuals and businesses. McCain represents a continuation of the unpopular Bush's economic policies and argues McCain backs corporate tax breaks and lax regulation that have contributed to the financial crisis. Polls says that the race titles on Obamas side while McCain is losing his political strenght. By Sunday, both campaigns were taking partial credit for the shape of the financial bailout. McCain said in a tv show early in the morning that the latest version of the bailout plan meets his insistence of an oversight body to monitor the treasury secretary and limits the compensation of executives of financial institutions applying for loans.Vice presidential candidates seldom decide elections. But in a contest as close as this one between McCain and Obama, a misstep could set back either campaign in the final weeks before the elections.
