Florida Bill Opinion

Florida Bill Article

After reading about the Florida Bill, my opinion on buying sweets with food stamps is that people who own a food stamp card should be allowed to buy sweets. They should be allowed to buy anything they would like. People are different from each other, and they have different ways of eating, exercising, and living. So, if that person wants to purchase a lot of sweets, that's up to them. If they want to purchase healthy and hearty foods, that's up to them. It really shouldn't matter to the government. Because the stamps are in their possession now, they can buy any type of food they want to buy.

The Person That Inspires Me

The person that inspires me the most is Kobe Bryant. He inspires me because he never gives up. Even though he broke his nose and could have sat out for some of the season, he still played. He did not give up,and plays like his nose is not broken.

I can relate to Kobe because last year in school my grades were not good. I never gave up. I tried hard,and they did go up. That's why Kobe inspires me.

Ain't I a Woman?
Sojourner Truth

In 1851 Sojourner Truth gave a speech in Akron,Ohio to a group of women's rights advocates. She was making a statement that women are just as important as men are and that women can do anything a man could. She was disputing the stereotypes that all women are weak and are not smart, and the truth of the matter is that now in 2012 more women are graduating high school and receiving their college degrees. Men and women are just as important as each other and should embrace the fact that their genders are recognized for being intellectual and important beings. -ac :)

The importance of being grateful

I would have to say that in my 15 years I really didn't appreciate life enough. When I was younger and earlier this year I always wanted things to go my way, and I always took life as a big joke. I complained on how things weren't good enough for me, or it wasn't something that I liked. I was just really ungrateful and selfish. When I look back on my actions and realize how ungrateful I was, I just get so angry with myself. I never thought to myself and said, "There are other people out in the world who don't have anything (like clothing and shelter), and I sit around being a selfish person and not be grateful for anything." Now I see how important it is to be happy with what you have and to be a grateful person.

Holiday Party

If I were to host a holiday party, I would gather all decorations and put them up all around the house. Then I would include more decorations to the ones I already have. When that's all done, I would design the invitations and send them all out to the guests. Next, I would get the tree, put it up, and make it all nice and colorful. When I finish decorating my tree, I will go food shopping and get foods/snacks that go along with the bright holiday, such as cookies, cakes, and holiday foods! I would look for good recipes to make by looking at Paula Deen's website, or possibly the Food Network channel. I would prepare all of the food and desserts and place them in nice, colorful food trays/bowls. I would make the guests feel welcomed by making the house look warm and greeting people. We would also play a little bit of Christmas tunes , watch some Christmas movies, and play games. For choice of movies or perhaps my favorite movies, there would be my most favorite, Home Alone 2, Good Luck Charlie: Its Christmas, e.t.c. For games, I would choose monopoly & the Wii game Just Dance. Everyone would be able to gather around, watch one another play, and take turns playing a variety of different games. In the end all of this equals up to a magnificent Christmas party! Z.C.

Have you ever had a favorite relative that you just love them so much , Well My Favorite Relative is My Auntie Laquanda. And Why She My Favorite relative is , Because when you need someone to talk to shes there even if you wrong she was like everybody Best Friend..

No More Snowman

If you build a man of snow
He will surely melt ya'know

In the Spring he'll be found
Drippy puddle on the ground

And maybe some pieces of coal
