Music

To me music is a way of getting away. When life gets hard nothing feels better than tuning out the world and listening to say some Nirvana while you just forget about all your troubles. When your happy and life is going good then it's fun to listen to some warm happy music. Making and listening are the best things to express your feelings

thoughts

I hate it how just cause I'm a teenager everybody thinks I'm bad. Whenever I got into a corner store or something with my friends they follow us around to make sure we're not stealing or they will make us take off our bags at the front. I feel like I've been labeled just because of my age and it's not fair.

dude, let us sleep

I think that sleeping in msip should be allowed. Msip is a period where you can do your homework and get caught up. But when you are done all your work there is nothing to do. Whenever I'm done all my work I just like to rest and lay my head down, but then I get yelled at! you need the most amount of sleep when you are a teenager. Since most people in highgschool are teens, let us sleep in msip if all our work is done.

Grand River Hospital

I think it's really low that the staff at the hospital made those videos. The people there that are ill can't help that they're that way. And it is deffinetely unacceptable for the staff to make fun of them. In my opinion all the staff held responsible should be fired.

French in Highschools

I still think we should have to learn French in highschool. Regardless of the history behind Canada, fact of the matter is we are still right beside the french speaking Quebec. So it's beneficial to know french for visiting. Also it's one of our National languages. I know that in the Southern States they have to learn Spanish because they are so close to Mexico. So it makes sense that we learn french.

Peter Braid Visists KCI

I kind of feel bad saying this but I have to admit when Peter Braid spoke at KCI, some of the things he said made me lose some respect. Well not really what he said but more or less what he didn't say. Whenever someone brought up a question he didn;t know the answer he would just ramble on about something else or change the subject. The same goes for when someone said something he didn't agree with.

Carrie Snyder

I think it was really inspirational to meet Carrie Snyder. She wrote a book about a child whose parents went to Africa to protest a war. and it's really cool because she was that child. I think stories are even better when they are stories that actually happened to the story teller. I think being a writer is a very hadr job. You have to be very creative! Also you  have to a have a lot of patience because it's a very long porcess writing and publishing a book. From my understanding it is somewhat hard to make a living from Writing unless you  are really good.
