Social networks, Y U SO HARMFUL?!

Social Networks are making our society harmful rather then being a benefit. For example, teenagers use social networks like Facebook or Myspace to harass or bully each other and hurt others feelings. The more and more social networks are popular teens start to attack each other and say cruel and rude things that will end up in a bad situation. There are many cases of bullying on social networking that end up with someone committing suicide. Social networks are not used for connect with friends anymore, now it is a place where teenagers attacking each other and bullying everyone.
In addition, social networks are harmful because there are stalkers and creepers on the site. Some people might get harass by random strangers and end up being scared of what is happening to them on the website. Also, social networks does not have much privacy, anyone can see your photos and know what you are doing which makes it weird if you do not know the person. For instance, if you put a picture of yourself on the Internet anyone can see it, pictures can spread through out the network. That is a scary fact but it can happen to anyone so being safe and only talking to people you know on social networks is the safest because if you start to talk to strangers anything can happen and it is very dangerous.
Finally, social networks are dangerous because it is an easy way for people to keep in connect with you who you do not want to talk to. Also, most people might use social network to harm others by threats and aiming at people. There are not privacy in any website and if you put something there and it is up forever so be careful what you put online. Be safe online. Do not talk to strangers. Don’t put your problems on blast. Don’t bully others online. These are the reason why social networks are harmful and people or the creators need to find a safer way to protect their website. Social networks, Y U SO HARMFUL?!

My homie George Orwell BRUH!

In my opinion, political power is corrupt depending on the people who obtain it. The person that has the power have an option on what they will do with the power, they can either take complete control or share the power. The United States have a set of rules called the Constitution of Independence telling what you can or can not do. It is kind of a blueprint of how the United States should run but when those rules are not follow as plan, the power will get corrupt. If someone gets complete control over the country of course they will do whatever they want and let all the power get to their heads. The United States have an okay government that is very equal with power and ways of doing things.
George Orwell, in the book shows that the Animal Farm government is corrupt because the pigs say that ‘All animals are created equal’ but that is not true. The pigs are the one in charge and believe that they can do whatever they want. The pigs and bigger animals tell everyone what to do and when to do it. They are the master mind in the rebellion and manipulate all the animals to do all their work. Since, the pigs are the government, they keep a lot of things a secret from the other animals and do not want the animals to be as smart or know more than them because if so then the pigs will have some trouble. Even thought George Orwell show how the government in the farm is corrupt, he always shows how happy all the animals are. The animals do hard work but they do not mind they are enjoying their new society so, it gets you thinking and question if the government corrupt because the animals are enjoying their life being controlled by pigs.
I know I am contradicting myself but I am not sure where George Orwell stands because it is bad to have complete control of a government and tell your people what to do but when they are happy about it, then it is a whole different story.

Colleges.

This article was very persuasive, it gave a lot of sources and evidence but it was kinda saying that college does not work for everyone. Also that you do not need to go to an elige college to become successful.

“The “oohs” and “aahs” follow as the audience learns that Steven Spielberg, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates dropped out of college, that Oprah Winfrey is an alumna of Tennessee State and that Ken Burns graduated from Hampshire College. If even a few stressed students and their anxious parents benefit from this information, it is a worthwhile exercise.”

As I was reading this article I did not find anything interesting for persuasive. Like it gave fact and stuff but never gave out example. And to me the author is pretty much saying if you do not have money then you can not make it in life which is not true.

“The elite colleges are increasingly white and affluent. The least selective four-year colleges and community colleges are increasingly home to disproportionate concentrations of low-income students as well as African-American and Hispanic youth. And less than 5 percent of students at elite colleges come from the bottom quartile of family income.”

To me reading these article got me thinking about college and my future a lot and I started to feel the pressure but then I realize I still got time. Just taking one step at a time. And to the colleges, I want to apply or go to colleges that I like for their environment and majors not by how popular or what other people think of it. It is my decision where I wanna go so I should know what colleges work or not work for me.

People change.

I saw this quote that I got from Karisa’s blog that caught my eye and had my thinking,

 "People change. They end up having nothing to say to each other, even if they were best friends the year before."

People change a lot over a long time period. They start to have new perspective on things and have new values. When people start to change, their friends can either like or hate what they turn into. Even though, you can be the best of friends for years over time you learn new things and your mind have changed into someone who is different and now who your friend you used to be.

Changing is the way of life. You change your environment so you have to learn something new that will change you for the better or worst. It is just how it is. When people change so much they will not know what to say to each other because they might know if what they say might push the person button and hurt their feelings because they will not know the person that well anymore.

I had many close friends that I had in middle school and now whenever I see them I do not know what to say cause I have no idea what to say or talk to them about. Like they are different now and I am different now what we believed what funny or the stuff we got alike might be different. Things are not the same all the time. Everything change and it gets harder.

Mom, I love you.

My mom. I love her so much. My mom is not perfect, that is what I love about her. I don’t want someone who is perfect to be my role model because I know she messes up but she learns from her mistakes and move on. This is why I look up to her. Also, her food is so good! Everyone says their mom’s food is the best but really my mom food beats everyone. I just had some ribs and rice, the food was on hit.

Seriously, my mom is like no other. She does so much for me and my siblings sometimes we take advantage of it. In addition, my mom gave up her life to take care of everyone she loves. My family would not be stable without her, we would not even be a family if she was not here. My mom is loves to explore and go on adventures and just have fun with life, and she wants my siblings and I to do the same thing. She just wants the best for us and is willing to do anything to keep us safe and have a better life then her. This is why I love my mom so much. Sometimes I do not know how to thank her for all the things she has done for us.

My mom is not perfect like I said. Sometimes things she says and do pisses me off at times but sometimes she makes it up to me. Also, she learns that she should not do and say those things again. Me and my mom are still learning how to get along because we are too much alike. Which is find with me but we kinda crash at times but daughter like mother.

Anyways, I wanna finish this blog by saying. I love my mom.

Mom if your reading this, I know you’re not but possible if you are MOM, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
