my ammendement

I am going to call my amendment Jake's amendment and it will lower the drinking age to 16 and it will lower the driving age to 14, I am doing this because we all know that we do it before the legal age in the first place. I would also legalize marijuana for the exact same reason everybody does it and the legal age for it would be 21 unless it is used for medical reasons, such as glaucoma and or cancer. I would view marijuana like we view alcohol now, it is illegal to overdose and drive etc.

what i wish i could believe in again

i wish i could believe in santa clause again so when my parents dont get me a dog every year i could think that santa is the one who isnt listening.

little and big people

My friend Klay is big on the outside and  but like a baby on the inside. He is very sensitive about the little things in life. Someone who is little on the outside and big on the inside is my friend Nick, hes always trying to fight everyone and it is really funny. No physical aperances are not a reflection on someones personality, my friend Klay's apperance does not fit his personality.

saver or spender

I think that when it comes to me i am a saver and that the best example of saying something to prove that is the whole i pod deal, about weather i get the one now or wait untill later and save up and get the better one that is exactly what i did in real life i had the same i pod scence fifth grade and when everyone got ipod touches i waited years until they made one that had a camera on it and it payed off at the end.

I disagree with the way that the passage says that our brain is hardwired because it is totally up to us what we spend and what we save, we don't have an automatic body function that makes us buy something when we want it or when we think that its cool. i also believe that if everyone was patient and thought through the decisions that they were going to make in everything that they do, the world would be a better place.

I think that our generation that we live in is definatly a spending generation and we should be a saving generation, by no means was i saying that i am perfect in all of the decisions that i make and think them through, but if i did along with the rest of our generation then we would be the best generation that ever lived on this planet.

tribes i belong to

i belong to the guittar tribe, the wrestling tribe, the school is boring tribe, and the party tribe

This I Believe...

extrovert

i like to spend time with people. extroverts have it easier because they don't have to deal with drama. Not everyone would get along that well and many more dissagreements would take place. if everyone was an introvert the world would be much better in a way that not everyone would disagree with each other. I prefer introverts for freinds because it makes you feel more accepted because they don't usually have that many friends. Extroverts are better leaders because they are more expressive of their opinion. Introverts are better writers because they have more unexpressed emotions burroed up inside. I would say that an extrovert would be a better neighbor to have because i am myself an extrovert and would most likely with one. Yes it matters, but not to much. if you want to find someone you  could get along with then it would matter but if you want to know weather you can work with someone then it wouldn't matter.

Life Law 10

This is one of the most interesting life laws in the dentire book. ITs telling you that before you say what you want, you have ti know exactly precisely what that is. What jay is saying is true, people work for a long time for what they think they want but when they finally get their they realize that it is not at all what they want. This can happen to anyone even jay, so he wrote this life law to get people to sit down sometime and actually think about what they want and i look foreward to putting myself on the right track to my version of success.

Life Law 9

This is a life law that makes a lot of scencse and soemthing i dont do a lot but would like to learn how to do. i especialy like the quote in the beginning it is a quote that i will try to follow for the rest of my liife. basically it means if you hold a grudge or get revenge on someone, it gets you nowhere, you are not free but once you learn how to forgive, you learn how to set yourself free.

Life Law 8

This Life law, suprisingly is a law that i already obey, you cant let people treat you like crap or else everyone that ever sees you with that person will treat you like crap. There are too many peple in this world that do this in my opinion ad it needs to stop so that boundries can be set for each person.

life law six

This made me realize what lenses that we all use in my life and our lives

life law five

This life law really made me realize that if i lost my grandfather i really would not know what to do without him. Also that we all can realize that about certain people in  our lives.

I Hear America Singing, Walt Whitman

This is my favorite Walt Whitman poem because it talks about the young partying and about how he can interprate the peoples jobs by what they sing, such as the boat callers and the mechanics.

three questions

Walt Whitman  was an American Poet, Journalist, and Essayist.
He writes poems, journals, and essays
He is a Realists because  he doesnt write romance

students are the best teachers

I think that students are not the best teachers because even though it is always good to see things from a students prespective, students tend to think that they know it all and even though there are teachers that are wrong on plenty of occasions and think that they are right, students did  not go to school like the teachers did so i say to leave them be.
