Presicdent Howells 15

What are the first three things I would do if I were president? First I would make sure that there would always be religious freedom. Second I would start laying down guide lines for disability unless someone is really disabled then they can't get it. And third I would higher scientist to find a way for cars to run or just any old water right out of the tap. And then shut down the gas companies. And if you want one more thing I would shut down all casinos in the United States. Not to mention beer and cigarette companies. And if people don't like that then they can get a new president.

Triangle Tangle 13

Statistics show that by the age of 11 most guys have had their first drink of alcohol, and for girls it was the age of 13. That right there says there’s a problem in drinking. But the worst part about it is that most of the supply is from the parents, so now something is being done about it.
Now parents are being prosecuted for letting their children drink. Such as Elisa Kelly of Charlottesville VA, got 27 months in jail. For hosting a party for her teenage son, there are many things like this going on but not matter how many laws you put in place you will never be able to stop it. There will always be those few who do it anyway. But I do think that if they start to really crack down on the parents it will help with the problem. That’s why I think that the parents should be held responsible for the children’s actions. In the bible it says, “Raise a child in the way of truth and he will not leave it” this is saying that if you raise your kid’s right they will have respect for things like that. And not only all that but the long term effects it has, I mean like lose of brain cells and you can’t get those back unlike normal cells they don’t reproduce. The effect on your kidneys and many other parts of the body is just outrageous. But I do think that parents could stop their children, one of the most used sayings is, “Monkey see Monkey do” so what do you expect if kids see their parents drinking. And the ages for children wanting to be just like their parents are about 10-13 but by the time they have done if a few times they are addicted and the might want to stop but can’t. S my advice would be stop making it and parents stop drinking it but if you are going to don’t do it around your kids.

My Favorite 14

Let’s see my favorite holiday; I would have to say it would be Valentines Day. No I’m not some little lover boy, but it seems that on valentines day that everyone seems to have this love flowing out of them and everyone’s happy.
And my least favorite holiday, I don't have one they are all nice, and all of them seem to make people happy. So I can't really say that I have a least favorite one.
And I remember one particular Valentines Day, my dad came home from work and he had a big package in his hand. I asked what it was and he said “You can’t tell mom if I tell you.” Then I saw the bouquet of one dozen roses, so I knew instantly that it was something for my mom. I wish that everyday could be like that full of love and joy.

stupid me 12

If it weren't for that stupid decision I made on Saturday night I wouldn't be stuck in the pickle. It was just me and Elvis in the dorm and so I thought man that is boring. I had brought back some spray paint and I thought hey I should go and paint the soccer field. So I did and the fence so now let just put it nicely. That’s how I ended up duct-tapped to this trouble that I am about to face.

to be great 11

Well I can go really deep in about 2 sentences. Ok well I think that everyone has the potential to be great. I think that what makes a person great is the inside not the outside. Inside everyone should be the desire to help others. When someone lives for others and not self that is when they are really great. It takes a love for everyone and a forgiving spirit that makes a person great. So in all that I have said one word YES, I think everyone has the ability to be great.

WEAK!! 10

"Man you are freaking weak," after that sunned laughter urupted throughout the whole group of "friends" around. I felt bad for him, and even though I didn't laugh, I didn't stick up for him. At the time he was about 3 feet 8 inches tall, he was almot 12 years old, and had just been beat in a wrestling match with his little brother who was 10 years old and was about 3 feet 9 inches tall.
He still hasn't really lived it down cause he is still really small for his age now his almost 15 and weighs only about 125 and is only like 5 feet 4 inches. and his litttle brother can still beat him. He tried to fight the guy who said it but he was three times his weight and about 1 foot taller. thats when I started laughing. A I look back I wish I hadn't, cause I learned that "people are people no matter how small." (Dr. Seuss)

this is a personal story that I thought fit well.

this embarrassing 9

Ok so you want to know one of my most embarrassing moments. well surprisingly I don't have that many. but I do remember one time when we were in Hawaii, everyone was wanting some coconuts. but that wasn't the reason i was pu the tree, I was up there to cut the coconuts out so they didn't fall on peoples heads. I had been triming deferent trees for almost 2 hours so i was tired. but i only had one more branch to cut, and was ready to go at it hard.
Mr. Stanly, who was holding the ladder, said he was going to let go cause he was right in the path of the coconuts. I didn't think this was the best idea but i said ok. Istarted to cut, but I was cutting way to hard and fast, and sence the tree is round the ladder spun on the tree. this was about 20-30 feet high in the air and i feel out. it would have been one thing had i just fallen but i landed on a cement slab and it broke my belt buckle.
I was actually laughinf until i hit the ground. there was a big group of people at the bottom and they all looked up to watch and then i feel. the funny part was watching their faces on the way down. everysingle person was white as snow but when i laned i feel into coconuts from the cement. so i just lay there for a little bit got up and went to finish the branch. But on the way up my pant almost feel off cause they were to big and my belt buckle had broken, so that was the really embarrassing part. so there you have it one of my most embarrassing moments.
