Hilary Clinton

HILARY CLINTON for PRESIDENT....Mr. Barry said he would vote for Hilary just to see Bill be the First Man. As funny as that would be in the upcoming election I highly doubt I will vote for her. That is if she even makes it as one of the candidates, which part of me doesn't think she will but who knows.

The Truth About Lying

1. Social lies

2. Peace-Keeping Lies

3. Protective Lies

4. Trust-Keeping Lies

Clutter



During the first week of school we learned that many writings have way to much CLUTTER in them. It is important to have details in your writing but sometimes there are unneeded details and words that just clutters up the writing.

DO NOT USE:
  • it seems
  • I believe
  • perhaps
  • maybe
  • because
  • avoid adjevtives -use decpritons (nouns)

Family Values Gone


We talked in class about how family values are slowing disappearing. The economy is in such a money-hungry state that it is is slowing becoming less common that mother's stay home with their children. Many people believe that this doesn't effect their families and their values, but I think it does. Most of the time you can tell the difference in kids attitudes who are in day-care all day or those who stay at home with their mom's. Mother's have a very powerful influence on their children specially when they are young and it is important that they have that figure in their life. I thank God my mom was a stay at home mom. I wouldn't be who i was today if she wasn't.
