No, I don't like that at all I wouldn't tell anyone about my passwords. I wouldn't share my password with anybody. Because people will go in your things and read your e-mails, and start alot of stuff with people under your name.

Future Business Owner

If you could start your own business tomorrow, what would it be? My choice is simple. I would enroll in a culinary institute and complete a degree in Pastry & Baking. Then, I would open my own speciality cake & gourmet dessert shops. For now, I just have to keep dreaming... :) I love teaching and being around all of you all, but I'm not sure it's my absolute passion. I think I would be happiest owning my own business.

I would sell clothes and shoes in my business....

Grandmother gives birth to daughter's triplets!

3rd and final Presidential debate

I didn't watch he debate because I had to work. And I worked all night...so that's why I didn't get the chance to watch it.

Random act of kindness...

PSAT

FREE BLOG....

I'm going to talk about my weekend because I had a very good time. I spent time with my family and we talked about everything. I was so happy because we really didn't have much time with each other.....

Presidential Debate

They talks about McCain running mate Sarah Palin has questioned Obama's ties to William Ayers. Obama had a limited relationship with Ayers, who lives in the same neighborhood and teaches at the University of Illinois at Chicago. 40 years ago Ayers were a member of the Weather Underground, a radical group that claimed responsibility for a series of bombings.
And Obama countered with a trace of sarcasm that he didn't understand some things — like how the United States could face the challenge it does in Afghanistan after spending years and hundreds of billions of dollars in Iraq.

GOALS UPDATE...

The goals I've set for the 1st nine week were the one that I wanted to reach. I think i've reached most of them, but some I need to work on.

Candy Corn Kisses....

I would not buy the new Candy Corn Kisses because they look nasty to me. I wouldn't even taste nor buy them for me. But I would buy them for Halloween for the little kids because they may like them.....

IF YOU....

First of all I don't really gamble with lottery, because it could be addictive.
But if I was to play lottery and won a million bucks i would....

• BUY ME A NEW HOUSE
• BUY ME A RANGE ROVER
• BUY NEW CLOTHES AND SHOES
• GIVE MY FALMILY SOME MONEY

Scramble

i really don't know anything about the economy.

The Weekend

Well this weekend I had fun because Friday I went out to eat after we got of school early. Saturday I went to Nicholls Founder's Day because they had a parade. And Sunday I went to church because we had Family & Friends Day at church and I also had a great time...

Sleep...

I go to bed after 11:00 every night. I 'm always going to bed late because it doesn't bother me at all. I can't tell the difference when I go to bed late or early. But the only time I do go to bed early is when I'm very tired and sleepy.

Army Reps

When the army representatives came to the classroom yesterday and talk to us about being in the army and what jobs they have was interesting to me. Because I plan to go to one of the branches of the military. One thing they did tell us were they pay for you going to college, you would still get your regular pay if you're on sick leave or vacation, and they also have the most jobs to offer to you than any other branch of the military.

Legal Drinking Age

They're trying to change the drinking age form 21 to 18...



pros: you get to buy liquor, & beer early.

cons: it will be a lot of drinking and driving.

Track Quote>>>

"Even if you are not on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there."

I think that this quote means that no one should just sit their and let people run over the. They should also stand up for themselves.

Last Week College & Career Speaker

I wasn't hear but in the future I think it would help me because I plan to go to college in my future.

Meghan McCain Blog

Some people don't like to be followed everywhere they go, but I do because it really don't bother me especially when you know the person and know that they want try anything. Like in the case of Meghan McCain she has secret service agents I would love to have one. Because their are so many people who need secret service agents cause of all the killings, and kidnapping. If I could have one I would, because their is one way I could feel like I'm safe.

Dog Dails 911

I think the dog was real smart to dial 911. Teaching an animal how to do different things, could one day save anyone life just like this dog did. I don't have a pet, but this made me want to get one someday. Pets can be helpful when they're taught many different things, so when I get me a pet I'm going to teach it things.

HOMECOMING 2008

On Homecoming 2008 really wasn't difference b/c it wasn't any change in it, but I
think this year I had more fun with my friends. THE girls on the Homecoming Court were very pretty. The game was nice everyone had a good time and I enjoyed it.

Love Quote!!!!

I think it's better to have love or be in love because I think everybody needs somebody. Because can't nobody be by themselves all their life without loving someone. Everyone needs somebody to love and to love them back. Because without me loving somebody and them loving me back I don't think I could make it in life, because GOD wants everybody to love each other.

Abandoned Baby

The mother of the abandoned baby should be put in jail because she could of gave the baby to something who would take care of it. It's a lot of people who can't have kids and would like to adopt other children. I feel real bad for the babies who parents that do bad things to them. If I could adopt kids I would, I don't even like abortions. Because they don't some really terrible things to the babies. The only way I would understand abortions is when the mother has been rap, and I kind of don't agree with it, because you could give it up for adoption. so this is what I think about the baby.

BRITTNEY SPEARS & VMAs

Well I didn't Watch the MTV awards Sunday, because I was at church. I had to stay at church all day, because I had dance practice. We had dance practice, because we have to dance in 3 weeks. I stayed , and practice cause I didn't know all the dance moves, but when I watch the award shows the only thing I look at is how they dress, and how well they sing.

SICK DAYS

I think sick days will affect children and teachers. Because everybody will be behind with their work. They would take advantage of the other teachers and never do anything while their teachers aren't at school. I don't like for my teachers to be out because I know I won't do anything while they're out.

OPINION OF BLOGGING

What I think about blogging is that it is a good idea to do for a student. It helps you blog about different things. I think everyone would love to blog, because you can blog your friends and meet new friends.

PET PEEVE...

• PEOPLE THAT THINK THEY BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE.
• HAVING TO WASH DISHES...JUST GET A DASH WASHER!
• PEOPLE WHO PICKS ON OTHER PEOPLE...LOOK AT YOURSELF BEFORE YOU TALK ABOUT ANYONE ELSE!

FEMALE VP...

I think because of the female VP that McCain chose wouldn't make any difference to Hillary Clinton. I don't think it would effect the campaign. It wouldn't effect Hillary Clinton either just because McCain choose Palin. If people really know who they like then it shouldn't change their thoughts about Hillary Clinton or Palin.

TEEN PREGNANCY......

Because of the teen pregnancy over the past two years at CHS their has been a lot of people. Girls has been having babies like crazy. What I think is that the girls are planning to have the babies to keep their boyfriends. But, it's not going to because boys going to do what they want to anyway. I have a lot of friends that thought the same thing, but I didn't work out the way they thought it would. It is a lot of females raising they're kids by themselves, because the male want take responsibility for their child. And if could talk to the females I would tell them that just because they having a baby it will not keep a boyfriend....

LEARNING SO FAR....

What I've learned so far in this computer class are how to work Excel, Access, Word, etc.
We even learned how to how to work at a business place, such as what we need to have a business place. At a business place we need supervisors, employees, and stec.,and if you don't have that you don't have a business.

2 day week!

For my 2 day week I had so much fun even though it was raining....I spent time with my family who I live with in my home, because we never spend alot of time together
I travel with my cousins and we just talked to about alot of things mostly we just caught up about things we didn't have time to share with each other...

Tropical Storm Fay

What's the latest on the tropical storm?

Well I think that it's really bad weather. I also think that the people in Florida need to go somewhere else until it's over. I don't have family down there, but I do know people from there, and lives there.... IF I could help everyone I would. But I hope everyone will be okay , and hope nobody get hurt while the storm is going on.

FutureNow Assembly

Yesterday assembly was great. We had a lot of fun, and I enjoyed every minute of it. They really put their hearts in it, and took the time to talk to us children to make a difference in our lives. I mean it's like they knew about my life, and what I go through everyday. But I can say as of yesterday my whole life have changed. I'm going to make the right decision in my life. Now I don't have to worry about my friends, are anybody else telling me what to do.

How the class behaved the last two days...

I think the class behaved well the last two days. I mean everybody did their work, but i don't think all the supervisors did their job like they were suppose to, but everything else was GREAT!!!

THOUGHTS ON CHEATING

What are your thoughts on cheating? Explain your thoughts in a paragraph (at least 5 sentences).

I think cheating is a bad thing to do. It won't get anyone nowhere in life. I have experience cheating before, but I also got punish for what i did. It's like people who cheat in school everyone going to know who cheated when its time to take the Graduation test. That's because the ones who cheated will not pass all parts are none of the test. So i think everyone should do their work by themselves and learn something from it.

OLYMPICS

WHAT IS YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THE OLYMPICS IN CHINA?

I THINK THE OLYMPICS WAS IN A GOOD PLACE. ALTHOUGH I THINK THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE U.S. AND CHINA WAS ALRIGHT. EXCEPT THERE WAS ONE THING I DIDN'T LIKE ABOUT CHINA WAS BECAUSE THERE WAS TWO AMERICAN WHO WERE VISITING AN OLD BUILDING AND A CHINESE MAN ATTACK THEM. BECAUSE OF THE U.S AND CHINA OVER THE YEARS REALLY DIDN'T GET ALONG,BUT I COULDN'T SEE WHY HE WOULD DO IT TO THE AMERICANS. ALTHOUGH, I DID ENJOY THE SWIMMING. I THINK PHELPS REALLY IS THE BEST SWIMMER THERE IS.
