The Colorado Rockies!!
The fans of there favorite teams swarmed the stadium but an equal amount of Rockies fans as well. An interesting season it has been and to tell you the truth about the way I feel about them I thought they were a horrible team, but still I had hope in them. Hope that one day would make a difference We need to appreciate the Rockies. There last score they achived, catapulted them into the world series: 21-1
When I found out this information out I was not only shocked, but proud. My confidence along with many others payed off. To even make the intensity more bold this is the FIRST world series the Rockies has ever been apart of. I cant beleive it, a professional team from colorado gets that opportunity, and I know this is reality but i still cant beleive it. You see i am a huge fan of baseball and to see them at their best made them my favorite. This season showed everone what there made of. They must have worked themselves pretty hard this year.
When the world series came my heart beated for them and no one else. My fire was strong and I felt like they were undefeatable. Day by day passed, and they played other teams and they won every team, until they played the Redsox. Now i cant tell you the amounts of fans there to see the Redsox but i can tell you from what i have herd there was an amazing amount. The Rockies lost the world series and the Redsox won. Still the rockies played with heart. They played as a team, a family as one. They gave it there all and when they lost they still kept their heads high!
Thats what a true team is. I think we should appreciate the Rockies as more of a family and be thrilled they made it as far as they did. I know i am proud and a HUGE fan!

Do Schools have birth control role?

"But teenagers are sexually active, and teen pregnancy is one of the largest reasons for the dropout of girls from high schools."
Wow, unbelivable.
I cant beleive that is one main reason of girl dropouts, and i wounder if they were just like me,
I want to wait till i find the right one to be sexually active...
Birthcontrol can be a fantastic thing and then again it has its limits.
It says from the essay:
Of every 1,000 girls ages 15-17 in the city, 54.5 will become pregnant
in the city, compared with 24.3 throughout Colorado, That is alot. Sex is a comanly thing messed with but can be very dangerous.
I beleiv they should be able to give birth control at school. I also beleive that the kid taking then should be able to decide for themselves if they should tell there mom or not. I think it should be confidential with that person and the school
so they feel confertable the help themselves and do whats right.

A Russian Cerial Killer...

Unbelievable,
how could you live a day without grieving about your past. How could you live a day knowing that you murdered and Innocent person, not just one but many. How could you go on in life without wondering why? How could you live your life and that ones life is taken away. Innocent blood.
I sware people are insane. "He later tried to confess to 63 murders in all. Prosecutors said they lacked the evidence to bring further charges and suggested that he might have been boasting. But several relatives of missing people turned up at his trial, and suspected him of killing their loved ones, too."
He has a life sentence. That's fare to me but not fare to the ones who you grief. He should be executed. Whats the right thing to do?
let him live in misery or live isolated? but now that i think about it i was always told to "do on to others as you would do on to you..."
i truly don't know what i think about it. but that's SO messed up.
I always think about this, alot of crimes that are made aren't always justified. Some get what they deserve and some don't, and when those people get out do they learn and move on and beg for forgiveness or go out and do it again? make the same mistake over and over again. Some people don't even get caught. But hey this world isn't perfect.
think about it?

Understanding Grief.

"The fire broke out at about 7 a.m. Sunday at a beach house on Ocean Isle Beach on the southern end of North Carolina’s Atlantic shore..."
The grief of the lost ones in the fire must be terrible. You don't really know the pain of loosing someone you love without personal experience.
You see I have lost someone very dear to me, my brother. We may not have been close at times but now that hes gone he means everything to me and I would give up everything to see him one more. SO many tragedies in the world today, a daily thing, some big some small but what can you do? nothing really. Its the worst feeling in the world, and you sometimes feel like its your fault or wish it was you, I would know. To get the call or whatever it is to hear that you son you brother of daughter or sister, or whatever relationship you had with that person, makes you see the sun set and nothing more. When i read this essay I felt the sorrow and when I saw the picture i saw the pain. That's horrible but uncontrollable. My prayers are with them.

Wikifield Presentations

I always wounder and think about my history in school. I always think about how much I have improved from my early year still now. Wouldnt it be cool to have a way to see all the work you have done from past semsters or clasess etc., Well in this article I read they found a way to do that. This method is called Wikifield. Wikifield is a folder program that you can use to save files and work. This is really special because if students started to use this method and used it alot, this would allow the students to use there past work for future reference and make there work better and excel. This allows you to look back and see what you did wrong and learn for next time. Truly what I think is, the best way to learn from your mistakes is to only learn from yourself. I mean you can learn alot from others but to truly learn from your mistakes is to think about self behaviors.

In this paragraph I read about Pocasts. I think their brilliant. I think there a great way to allow the reader to understand the authors expressions. You see theres a big difference between text and voice. Text is of coarse an easy way of communication etc., but it doesn't show the true meaning behind it all. Voice is everything in words, sentences, and paragraphs. Anything that symbolizes someone talking or the mood . Podcasts are for everyone to hear and this tool is going to allow our class to express our believe papers with true meaning!

need to complete...

In the first couple weeks of school I created a "What matters collage." That was an interest to me because what matters to me i have a passion for. You see, when we created that if we have forgetten, allows us to be remined of what truly matters to us in our teenage years and that is important because we need to thrive here and there... Also i liek thsi unit because we get to know eachother better in the class and to the end have a disscusion about it. Just importantly as the Personal blog entrys.
