                One day the son of a middle class family went to his parents with a problem. He told them him and his girlfriend had recently broken up. They were so shocked because of how long they have been together. It has been nearly two and a half years. When they asked him to tell them what happened he was very hesitant. He seemed to be a bit embarrassed and refused to talk. Finally after a little convincing he gave in and told his parents. He said that him and his girlfriend were hanging out and went to the mall. As they were walking around all of these other girls had seen him and smiled and waved to him and he waved back. Well his girlfriend began to get a little jealous at all the attention he was getting and disliked how he smiled at them so she decided to say hi to the guys that were passing them and waved and smiled. Well this caused a sort of argument between the two. He continued in saying that after looking in a store for about an hour he got tired and walked out to sit down on a bench and relax his legs while his girlfriend kept on looking for clothes to buy. While he was sitting down his ex-girlfriend showed up and started to talk to him, he really didn’t want to talk to her but he wanted to be nice. As soon as his girlfriend seen this she freaked out instantly and they left. On the way home she kept on yelling at him and he told her that he had nothing to do with it and she was the one that was talking to him but she didn’t believe it. They decided they would break up. Well the parents have been through almost the same exact thing so they took him to the best music teacher there is. There he learned to play guitar in three days and mastered one love song. Then they went and got some flowers for him to give to her and a bag full of all kinds of candy. At about 6 o’clock his parents decided to drop him off at her house because that was the time that she just got home from a hard volleyball practice. Also on the way they picked up a movie for them. When they got there he started playing the guitar and she looked out of her window. After seeing who it was she ran downstairs hugged him and got the candy from him then they watched the movie all night.

                In the four videos I just watch I was really shocked. I didn’t realize how much stuff in this world was copied; I always assumed things as original. It goes way back when we realize how stuff just came about. I think that it is hard to say what is fair and what isn’t when it comes to plagiarism because yes somebody may have copied them but who did they copy? I never thought of things as of being built upon the base of ordinary. In order for everyone to become creative they must stick with what they know and what they know is what everyone else knows. No one person can go their whole life without making bases off of something they got from someone else. Also I think that it is right that too many people place blame on someone when they copy them and they get at them like cats and dogs but when they themselves do it, it’s allowed and they don’t find anything wrong with it. I find it a little hesitant believing that creativity isn’t much of a realistic thing because somebody thought about something else in order to create it. There isn’t a way that something was just there, they had to create it. I agree when they said that many things are derived from others though, this is a true statement, even some sort of creativity is derived from a previous thought or someone else’s thought to that extent. It all makes sense but then everything is stolen so where is the sanity in getting someone who stole from you when you stole from someone else in items such as songs or programs. Somebody somewhere came up with the same thing that someone else has thought of or done the same thing, they just didn’t get the recognition or they were forgotten along the way.

                One weekend my wife and I, 6 months pregnant, were at the mall shopping for some stuffed toys for our soon to be newborn. We were walking through the aisles of clothes and toys because my darling wife just had to look at the clothes and wanted to spend my money. From across the room I saw her, my ex-girlfriend. We broke up the day that I told her I wasn’t the type to marry and I planned on staying single the rest of my life. I am sure she will understand it was just because I didn’t find her attractive anymore once she sees me with my wife. I tried to break it off the nicest way as possible. I just hoped she wouldn’t come walking my way. As we started moving down the aisle we got closer to her and she stopped me and talked to me. It was awkward introducing her to my wife who right away asked how we knew each other. I told her she is my former girlfriend and then she asked me who the pregnant woman is and I told her that was my wife. She had a blank stare on her face as if she didn’t know how to respond. Then after an awkward silence she said it was nice to see me again and nice to meet you to my wife and left. She didn’t have a hint of anger or sadness in her voice, just a lot of disappointment. I could tell she really loved me and I felt bad for doing what I did to her but me and my wife are happy and I don’t regret any time we had spent together. I am looking forward to my new baby boy and I am letting the past be the past. It was so awkward at first but now looking back I think that she will be able to get over it and move on with her life just like I did. There is somebody for everybody out there and hopefully soon enough she will find that somebody in her life who makes her feel special and loved.

                Last Tuesday was the weirdest day of my life. I had the rarest encounter that of all my eighteen years. I got yelled at during class. It was for no reason at all and I found it very rude and inappropriate. I find that there is a time and place for arguments about that and that was not the time. If you have a problem with me I prefer that it be brought to my attention in a very mature, adult-like nature. I find that no matter how I try I cannot make everyone happy and I accept it, but I do not appreciate being yelled at. I have enough drama in my life and I do not need any more. I understand that I am not perfect and that I may not be good enough to fit into your standards but there is no reason to raise tyranny with me without first giving an example of what I do wrong. I apologize if I anger anybody with what I say or do, and I appreciate it being brought to my attention but not by yelling at me, by just fluently and calmly telling me and talking to me about the problem. No one knows really what I have been through and I do have better things to do then waste my time, I don’t just come to school to waste my time, I come to learn and to better my education. Well this is really all I had to write and I just wanted to get my feelings out so I wouldn’t be stuck on this subject for a while. #Deuces

Throughout this political discourse there is a lot of media that has been surrounding me about the election. I tend to be in the middle of running from it and being in the debate with them. I feel like I should say something, it is my most valuable right to vote and I feel I should speak my mind. I think that there is many ways to look at this political debate and whether or not either on us well enough suited to be our president. The reason I tend to want to get away from it is because I don’t know enough about it to get involved and to speak what I think. It would be like going into battle without any weapons or armor, I am not prepared. Also I think that it can sometimes get annoying. All night last night my twitter was exploding with things about Obama and Romney. It got a little annoying to me and It bothered me. Not just because I didn’t know what was going on but because it is all that was talked about and there was so much argument and tension. I felt that I didn’t really care about what one person thought because it is my decision on who to vote for and what I want. Everyone is going to be different and have a different point of view on the election and who deserves to win it. Also there are many positives and negatives like how Romney is only supporting 47% of the population or how Obama didn’t do any good for the country and ended up costing us more. I think behind every story is another one that has facts in it too. I think a president should support all of his citizens not just a select few and also I think that it should be someone who knows both stories between the lower class and the upper class and is willing to find a way to bring it all together and benefit both. I am not saying take all of the rich folk’s  money and give to the poor to even it out, no but I am saying make it fare not biased.

                I just got done with accounting. It was very fun and I enjoyed the lecture. I really felt like I understood everything and I am looking forward to this next test. I like when I get good grades on tests because it shows how much I have tried and it makes me feel successful. Also when I get good grades it helps me to show how much I have accomplished in the class and that I actually did good and tried my best I could. I like when the teachers connect with me, like when they teach at everyone’s level and actually answers the questions the best they can. It helps me to learn and also I like when teachers go through the examples step by step and will not stop until everyone gets it. I wish I could listen to music sometimes in class because it helps me to relax and sometimes it helps me concentrate even more then I could if I was just sitting there. When I am tired it helps to wake me up and get me moving and some songs motivate me to be the best I do. That’s why I will sometimes listen to music while I am doing homework at home.  I like to think I am a multitasker even though I am really not. I will sit and do homework and listen to music and also sometimes watch TV while doing all of that. I think it helps but I know it really doesn’t.
