Finish this sentence "10 years from now I will be...." (explain)
...graduated from college and have a job and family of my own. Everyday I will go into the office and help animals. I have my mind set on my life goals so I try as hard as I can to get what I want. But who knows where I will be? That is just where I want to be.

Yesterday I had you choose a global issue and you wrote about it on your blog. Today on your blog I want you to tell me about two different perspectives of your global issue. Are there people for an against your issue? Do people disagree on your issue? Is it a topic that can cause controversy? Look at the issue for two different perspectives. Tell me about those perspectives.
My issue is Israel and its neighboring countries. One side of the story is the Jewish people have never been accepted for all of their existence and blamed for everything such as the black plague. They were just looking for a place to call home and where they will not be harassed. The other side of the story is Israel is stolen land that the Jews need to return to the Arabs. The Arabs use to have the land for themselves but the Jews were just looking for refuge from the rest of the world. There is controversy everyday in the Middle East over this topic.

Israel Conflict
Without doing any research, what background do you currently have on this issue?
I know that other countries are not satisfied that Israel is only a state for Jewish people, and they will go to war over it. This causes Israel to be hostile.
What do you want to know about this issue?
I want to know why the other countries in the Middle East keep attacking Israel and why Israel keeps attacking the other countries. I want to know the source of all the conflict.
Why did you choose this issue? Had it effected your life? Is it something you are passionate about? Explain.
I chose this issue because because I took Area Studies Middle East last year and it was something I found very interesting and wanted to learn more about. When I heard about the conflict on the news, I was curious on why it started and what causes Israel to be so hostile.

Last week I asked your to "think differently" and push yourself to be uncommon with your PSA project using Google Slides. Why do you think I asked you to do that? What is the point? Why not just use bullets and headers? Explain.
I would think you asked us to think differently and be uncommon to keep you interested. It also can expand our knowledge on the computer because this is a technology class. We all ready know how to use bullets and headers, so we don't want to recreate something we all ready know how to do. In classes, you generally want to learn something new, but doing the old things will not help expand your learning.

These kids are all so lazy these days. All they do is sit on their little mini computers. They're going to get fat. Back in my day, we had newspapers and jacks. These kids are our future generation and they aren't acting like it. We used to go outside and interact with people, we didn't have those fancy devices.

What is a public service announcement (PSA)? What do PSA's do? What makes a good PSA? How can you get someone to take action after watching a PSA? What is you PSA idea? Explain in detail.
A public service announcement is funded usually by a nonprofit organization and it lets people know about problems we face as a community in the nation. Public service announcements are good when they make you feel something, whether happy or sad. That feeling will help people make the right decision. My PSA idea is about texting and driving. I take statistics and then show people how it compares to the world around them.

Tell me all about your 3 day weekend. Share photos!
This weekend was pretty low key. I did a lot of sitting around again, and I just enjoyed the fact that we didn't have school. I did have my friends over for like 3 hours on Sunday, but he left because his sisters got food for him. I stayed up until about 2:30 in the morning every night, and woke up at noon.It was a pretty enjoyable weekend.

Tell me a little bit about yourself and your life here at BVHS. What activities or clubs are you involved in? What year are you in school? What is your favorite class and/or teacher so far this year? What are you looking forward to this school year? Include some original photos from your phone if you can.
Here at BVHS, I play baseball in the Spring and run cross country in the Fall. I'm a sophomore so I graduate in 2017. My favorite classes and teacher were the Area Studies Middle East and Area Studies Asia. I think you could guess who my favorite teacher is but it's Mowry. I'm looking forward to the upcoming baseball season, but I don't have any pictures.

Accept change
Be friendly
Carlos should be your friend
Don't quit
Evade mean people
Forget the past
Get good grades
Happiness
Imaginative
Just try
Kick no donkeys
Lick no penguins
Magical spells work
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Obliviousness to the bad
Park where you want to park
Question bad ideas
Restrictions don't mean anything
Stealing is bad
Think before you do something stupid
Understand the alphabet
Victory is always worth it
When in doubt, follow your heart
Xylophone is hard to spell
You is good
Zebras are majestic

What are your thoughts on this class so far? Easy? Hard? Informative? Frustrating? What have you learned so far? What do you want to learn? Explain yourself.
Honestly, we haven't done anything so far so I would say pretty easy. I've learned the programming to insert pictures into my blog. I don't really know what to expect going into the rest of the semester.

Tell me about your weekend. What did you do? Upload a photo to your Google Drive and then insert the photo (or photos!) to your blog post to show me what all you did.
My weekend was pretty boring, which is great for me. I like having nothing to do on the weekends. Sorry, I didn't take any pictures sitting on the couch watching football so here's a picture of a sloth being more productive than me.

Read this small newspaper clipping and then write a blog post about it. What are your thoughts? How does it make you feel? Do you agree? Disagree? Explain yourself.

My thoughts on this article are mostly "Then why don't adults treat us like we matter in the world?" Maybe the problem isn't the teenagers being lazy,but its that the adults make it seem like they are nothing in the world. To do something in the world, the teenagers need opportunities from the adults that currently run the world. The sad part is the "cry" from the teenagers is how they have to get permission from a "higher power." Maybe the teenagers aren't the problem, but the adults that don't give us the opportunities.
