My favorite music

My favorite music is rap and r&b. It's my favorite because of the beats they have and the lyrics that some songs have. One of my favorite artist is nicki minaj because of the way that she does her songs and the happy mood they put me in. One of my favorite songs is My Story. I like the way the song expresses feelings of life. The song tells how life is not easy.

In the morning i wake up and turn on my music while I'm getting ready for school. I like to do that so I can go to school in a good mood. I also listen to music at school while I am doing my work because it helps me tune people out and focus on my work.

I listen to music while I'm on the phone with my friends. We talk about songs or we just sing or rap along to the music that we are listening to. We do it to have fun or just because we are bored. Music is a stress reliever because it can always put you in a good mood.

What Is A Perfect Society In The Giver

A perfect society represented by "The Giver" is a community where there is no war. In this book only peace and the supposed greater good rule over all aspects of life. Also people never starve and are never rude,they take "wonder pills" to suppress emotion and drive. Furthermore the community uses every resource to its fullest potential,even trash. There are positives and negatives to this perfect society.The positives in "The Giver" are no disease ,famine or over population. The negatives to this are assisted suicide, authoritarianism and no freedom to do what you want at any time or any day. In my opinion I'd rather live in this society because at least if you don't like it you have an opportunity to change it if people around you truly believe that the laws are wrong. However "The Giver" society does sound good but, it is just too perfect, it throws away all the hard work generations have fought for in the past. MF
