9/27/10 a favorite childhood memory

      I don't remember how old I was when I met the boy who is now my boyfriend. I think I was about 13, maybe 14. We were on a site called Gaia online, and we were in a roleplay together. I think he messaged me and we began talking. We started becoming close, and I introduced him to my other friend, Kyo. The three of us were even closer  then we had been before. Vyncent and I are now together, and Kyo... well, I still talk to him every now and then...

9/9/10 Iraq struggles

"Explain some of the struggles that the US soldiers have had to go through while in Iraq .

What are many of the injuries that our troops have gone through do to the road side bombs.

What are your feelings about what our troops have had to go through."

The US troops have gone through a lot of hell. Being fired at, the intense heat, even watching their comrades die. I don't think it's right that they should have to die for this. However, it is a noble thing that they are doing, protecting other people from oppression. I am proud of the troops, and I am glad that they are around to help us.

9/8/10 Iraq war feelings

  "What do you think the Iraqi  people felt about the Americans? How do they feel about us now?

Do you feel this war was a success or not and what do you think will happen over the next 10 years in Iraq ?" 

   

  The people of Iraq were led to believe that all Americans were bad people. They were told this by the terrorists that were responsible for 9/11. I believe now that our troops have been in Iraq, fighting for the Iraqi people's freedom, they may now see us as good people, ones who believe in freedom for all. Freedom to choose our fate, to be free of tyranny, of oppression and most of all, of fear.

 I do not know whether the war in Iraq was a success or not, but I believe that we have shown ourselves to be good people. It is my hope that now, with the help of the people of Iraq, we can start creating peace between our countries.   I also hope, that over the next ten years, America and Iraq become allies in the war against terrorism. 

9/7/10 Healthcare in the USA

   "Health care in the USA is____

  It should___"

 Health care in the USA is moderate compared to other countries.It has it's problems, but it has it's advantages as well. If you are under 18, as I am, you automatically have health care. I don't really know much about health care actually...

 It should be better, according to lots of people. Some people are content with the health care they have, but other people want universal health care.

9/2/10 Dream job...again?

     "Write a paragraph of what career you would like to work at when you graduate high school. Explain why you would like to work in this field."

 Even though I don't see why we have to do this again, I'm ok with it, I guess.  

At the moment, I have two careers I would like to work at, though only one is probable. The improbable one is to be an ACO, or animal control officer. I love working with animals,and I'd love it even more if I could save them from humans that would harm or mistreat them, however, my anger issues wouldn't  allow me to do so. I would get so upset at the criminal that I might lose my cool and hurt them myself.  

That said, I go on to my next career of choice: Computer tech. That's working on computers; fixing them, inspecting them, troubleshooting and such like that. It seems like a good choice for me, since I'm already skilled with computers anyway, and I learn about them quickly. I'd also like to try my hand at computer programming, but not really as a job.
