facebook is evil?

Facebook is EVIL!

Why is Facebook evil you may ask? Facebook is evil because, it distracts people from doing their work, it doesn't help anything but make you stupider, it doesn't even help you with writing properly. This is because your using short forms of writing, like I.E. wuts ^? hbu? wby?
it doesn't make any sense now does it? Cause some people don't even use the short forms, they actually have enough brain cells not to get caught up in that kinda stuff. Me personally, I think that facebooks a complete waste of time.. I'm barely on the computer so I really don't know what everything means, so yeah
therefore facebook is evil. <3 :)

Overveiw. Of the whole book.

What i think about the book.. I think its a total waste of time. It really wasnt what I expected. I could barely understand it. Also, I could barely pronounce some of the words.
I kept losing my place in the story because, sometimes it is because I get disreacted.
but the other times , its because, I dont understand it, at all. Theres also really nothing that connected with me on the book. Talking animals? Really. it doesnt make any secnce to me, I dont know what to think about the whole book. Cause it doesnt really mean anything to me.

Bieber

Q : Is Justin Bieber A Good Role Model For Kids and Young Teens.?

A : Yes. Justin Bieber is a good role model. His music really connects with his fans. Justin had a lot happen growing up. His parents divorce. I have actually met him and know his story. Justin Bieber is a good role model for kids and teens. Justin Bieber actually writes his music to help kids around the world. His songs are about parents divorces, and problems with whats going on in the world. 


To me Justin Bieber is a great role model. Hes helped me with a lot of "problems" 
Justin is the type of song writer that actually writes songs about problems that are becoming more and more popular. Like divorces. They are getting so popular, almost all parents that have problems are getting divorces cause they don't want to go into "marriage counseling" to get help. 


Look at these lyrics. "So we fight (so we fight) through the hurt (through the hurt)
And we cry (and cry and cry and cry)
And we live (and we live) and we learn (and we learn)
And we try and try and try and try

So its up to to you and its up to me
That we meet in our middle way
On our way back down to earth
Down to earth down to earth
On our way back down to earth
"
This song means a lot to Justin. He actually cried during one of his shows singing this song, so if it means a lot to Justin, then it should mean a lot to Justin's fans. Cause look at it this way, if Justin hurts, his fans hurt.

Are blogs helpful in English class?

Are blogs help in English class. 

Yes. Blogs are helpful in English class. My reason is this... Blogs don't waste paper, so its helpful with the inviroment. We can also use the blogs to communicate with the teacher if something ever goes wrong in class. The teacher can also correct our work and give us tips on how to inprove our work.

Blogs are also helpful because now you can see what people are doing and what projects they're missing without going through a binder. 
All you have to do is go onto the students blog and see what they have and read it. 


So this is why I think that blogs are helpful in English class.

questions

What do you know: I would never put myself in danger/ harms way.
I agree with the author. Putting yourself in danger might not even work out the way you plan
it to.

Understanding Persuasive Texts: I don't understand this question.




Reading for Detail: So many sides of the story.
But the one detail that appeals to me is ... ITS A BIG RISK
yeah everything in life if a risk .

COURAGE ! 
What is courage ?
Courage is something that everyone has to grow up towards..
It doesn't just come naturally,
Personally I think everyone must have atleast a little bit of courage that isn't
worked up to.. I also have alot of courage when it comes to people
bugging my friends, and when they bug me. I have alot more courage then all my friends put together.
Although sometimes I feel afraid I build up the courage and tell people off.


This is what I think courage is.

good friends .

Kso . this is what I think good friends are.
Good friends look out for you, pick you up when your down.
Good friends NEVER leave you for stranded. When you get in trouble they never ever allow you to go through tough shit alone. They are always there for you. No  matter what happens to you, friends fight, but in the end, you always get back together. (: Ilovemyfriends. You should too !
