Poverty is one this, but selling bad food to a poor person is another. If someone is homeless and receives 2 dollars and goes to the store and buys food that is rotten, they will get sick and that will just make their life worse then before they got the 2 dollars. Something in this article that was interesting was, “What the scientists found was not good. The food is often rotten. It is full of germs. Eating this food can make people sick.The customers agree. Rodney Jenkins ate bad fruit from a corner store. He got sick. He worries about giving bad food to his children.” This shows that people are wasting money on rotten food that is just gonna make them worse than before. The government should shut down these stores and have them putout real food or maybe just samples each day, like 3 samples per day.

Questions: How can we stop poverty?    Would you donate someone money who is homeless?

“If you get past me, you make the team” I said. He took one dribble the 2 dribbles and they were quick, I then reached in when I thought he lost control of the ball and then he grabbed it and spun around, his movements were erratic. I looked at him contemptuous and with great mortification. He had gotten past me, nobody ever gets past me. Usually I am a very contentious player and like to start a fight, but he won my approval, and I know he felt he had my tacit approval. “You’re on the team.” I said.

I chose an article about plastic pollution because plastic pollution is a big problem to our environment and the living creatures in it. More people need to be more aware of the situation that plastic can have on the environment if not disposed of properly. Something that stood out to me in this article was, “People started making plastics about 100 years ago. Since then, we have made billions of pounds of it. It is probably in every body of water today, Jamieson said. Five trillion pounds of it float on the surface alone.” This to me is unreal, 5 trillion pounds of chemicals in a habitat of animals. We need to act fast before all these animals die because of the plastic they eat that ends up in there stomachs.

Questions: What can we do about plastic pollution? How do we dispose of plastic?

I chose The Lost Boys by Lilian Carmine because it seemed like a type of book I like, mystery and maybe some action. This book tells the story of a 12 year old named Reza, he and his friends joined their country military effort. Reza’s uncle is also on the run from the government because of the stuff he did. Reza’s uncle brought him banned tapes and Reza has really wanted to listen to them but hasn’t had the chance to. I think this book is really good and I am looking forward to the what happens next.

I chose an article about social anxiety because it is a problem that many teens or adults face, especially me. Something that I found interesting in this particular article is, ” Social anxiety affects about 5.3 million people in the United States. The average age it begins is between age 11 and 19– the teenage years.” I didn’t know that this usually happens in everyones life at the teenage years, I thought it could hit anyone at anytime, but it’s mainly in the teenage years. If you have social anxiety, don’t stress, you will get through it eventually, it just takes time.

Questions: When did you first realize you were nervous in public?  What can we do to not have social anxiety?

The book I am reading is “Lost Boys” by Darcey Rosenblatt. I chose this book because it looked interesting and it is a war story, some interest me some don’t, this one did. I read from chapter 1 to 2 and basically they are in a war but in a war with their own county, with their government. They can barely go outside or talk to their family members. Sometimes they are being tracked.

Something that is very obscure to me is cooking. Cooking is very difficult and I don’t know how people do it on a daily basis. First things first cooking takes way to long, if you were just heating something up that’s something I can do. If I were to cook I would need many intervals in  between. I also don’t understand how people time everything so perfectly, when to blend something, when to cut something, when to heat something up. It’s like the person cooking is scrutinizing the food to when it looks the best. I know there are a lot of tactics for cooking but I still don’t understand. My mom on the other hand becomes stern when it comes to cooking, she also does it so relentlessly.

I believe that quitting smoking by the age of 35 or before can prevent health risks. In the news article, Can quitting smoking by age 35 cancel ou  associated health risks? They agree as well. They say, “As we observed in the study, those who quit  before the age of 35 avoided almost all of the excess mortality risk associated with continued smoking.” This shows that if you smoke at a young age and quit and a young age you can still have a healthy life. This doesn’t mean start smoking now and just quit before the age of 35, it can still affect you in many other ways.

The book I chose was Percy Jackson Greek Gods by John Rocco, I chose this book because it seemed interesting and I’ve always wanted to learn about the Greek Gods. The book basically talks about all the important Greek Gods, what they do, what they’ve done, the start of them, and Percy Jackson helping them. It is very interesting and a long book, around 400 pages long. I definitely would recommend reading this book.

I was starting to get into the HABIT of going to bed early. If you want to get into the habit of things I suggest prioritizing those things first. Going to bed early, finishing your homework when you get home from school, walking the dog everyday. To do this you have to be proactive in your life, control your routine. Initiate this starting today, do whatever you want your habit to be right now. The principles of habits are that they lead you to a better lifestyle and you will be more organized.
