Blog Post of the Day:
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.

This blog post is very good advice for teenagers. It tells teenagers to grow up and behave for the world. It also tells teenagers to stop acting like wusses and start making the world a better place. The world helped us grow and now we should help the world to grow more and more advanced. We should take care of the world one step at a time by doing stuff like planting trees. This article helped me learn to feel more compassion toward the world and its endeavors. I agree that if everyone started to help the world as a teenager the world would be a more habitable place to live. This is the dream that many people want to be a reality.

Blog Post of the Day:

What is a Public Service Announcement? If you don't know what it is, Google it. In your own words, now tell me what it is? What are they used for? Can you recall an example of a PSA you've seen before?

A PSA is a announcement that raises awareness on certain topics like cancer or obesity. The PSA helps the community know what problems are happening in and outside the community. If we didn't have PSA then the community would fail and we would not be able to have a safe, protective environment. They use PSA to inform people about a problem and have the community reach out and try to fix it before it's to late. Some problems can be robberies, murderers, and threats to the community. An example of PSA, I have seen before is a Drug Prevention program. The program informed me about the dangers of drug and alcoholic abuses on substances like Nicotine and Marijuana.

Blog Post of the Day:
After watching the short clip of Ashton Kutcher's acceptance speech what did you take away from his advice? What does this quote mean to you -"Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you, and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use."

Ashton Kutcher speech was very touching and funny. His advice was excellent because of his 3 rules of life. He gave me the chance to re-think my life in greater depth. I will use his advice to become a better person and a better role model for my younger sister Aliyah. I will get a job and leapfrog to the next job until I find the perfect job that suits me. For now, I will be smart and get high quality grades and be the best person who I can be. I will become actively involved in Boy Scouts and set a high goal to get Eagle scout. I will also be involved in Order of the Arrow by being on Ceremony team and getting a lodge position. At school, I will join school clubs and create a club that I will be in until the end of high school. This is how I will live life to the fullest extent I can right now.
