¿Baning Halloween?

Should the school ban Halloween costumes, or are they making too big a deal? The school shouldn't ban Halloween costumes because of one student's mistake. They are definitely making it a big deal. Halloween is THE holiday where you are supposed to make scary, and sometimes ridiculous costumes. That is all part of the custom. Now, I can see where the Nazi costume is offensive. Some people could religiously get offended by the costume. But, that is where freedom of speech takes place. You are supposed to be able to speak your mind freely without the thought of being punished. Therefore, you shouldn't punish people for their rights.

Invisible

The advantages of being invisible is that you can escape from the tortuous world around you. We would be able to leave when we get embarassed at school, or when our parents are yelling at us. I would rather be able to turn my invisibility powers on and off, (like Violet off of the Incredibles) that way I can still be seen, and I could still interact with others. When I feel like running away, I could just turn invisible and calm down, or even get revenge. When my parents are putting me down, or making fun of me and my brother, I could go invisible and seek revenge. I could move things around and scare them to death. That would be the best gift ever. Of course, I wouldn't tell anyone because what would be the fun of that? I wouldn't be able to scare them, or help them out without them knowing. Those are the advantages of this incredible power. The disadvantages would be my parents finding out, and getting into some serious trouble. I would eventually have to face the consequences. If they found out anyways. Other than that, I would absolutely LOVE to have this power. =]

Memories<3

Every day should be entered into our memories forever.  However somedays you just wish wouldn't have ever happened, but it is stuck in your mind for the rest of your days.  The greatest of memory that I have, and will always cherish is the time when my daddy saved my life.  It was one sunny summer day, when my family decided to go to the public pool and cool off with the refreshing water.  At that time, I was only 5 years old, so I still had to use floaties for my arms and waist.  While I was airing up the floaties and starting to put them on my arms, my brother , Johnathan, got impatient and pushed me into the 12 foot deep pool.  Since I didn't have my floaties on properly, I started to drown.  And as soon as my daddy saw me going deeper and deeper under the water, he started to panic.  He started to take everything out of his pockets, such as his cell phone, his keys, and is wallet.  After he "thought" his pockets were all emptied out, he dived in and saved me from dying.  After saving my life, he realized that his cigarettes were floating around in the pool.  To this day, I will always remember how my daddy, saved my life!!

¡Bonfire!

Just the thought of no more bonfires for Homecoming has just hurt the souls of most of the high school, junior high, and even elementrary kids. That was one of the events that we looks forward to the most. That and Homecoming was a big even for the citizens of our town. We don't have much, but what we do have we really appreciate, and get involved in. You would think that bonfires were just for high schoolers, but the town also loves it. They bring their children of all ages down to see it, the band, and the cheerleaders. And now that it is taken away from us, we just feel like we have no more tradition. But, this year we are going to bring back the old Homecoming Parade. How that will work out is beyond me. But hopefully its for the best. If I could decide what we could do, I would have the parade, then Homecoming, followed up by a dance for the junior high kids, one for the high schoolers, and one for elementray and other people. That would be my choice. But, we don't always get what we want. Either way, its good. We are still coming together as a community and celebrating one of the biggest football events in the whole year....HOMECOMING!!!

I wish...

I wish there was a law against abortion because it is so sad, and mind boggling how we can just kill babies because the parents don't "want" them. If they wanted to do all of the "business", then you should also want the baby. Even if you got raped, and you ended up pregnant. There is always the choice of having the baby and giving it up for adoption. No matter what, there is always a second option. Even if its giving the baby to your parents to help you take care of it while you get on your feet, there is always another option besides killing an innocent person before it even has its own chance at life. The way I think of it, its straight murder no matter which way you try and twist it around. People get sent to prison all the time for murdering someone, so why can't there be a punishment again abortions?
