Okay, so today is my mother's birthdays so I am really happy about that. I am also happy that I did my presentation and got it finished. I just wanted to say that I learned a lot from peoples presentations as well as my own. There was so much information that I didn't know about education and how I am just so blessed to be able to get a good education. I have the best of both worlds because I have the academics as well as the arts. I just want to make sure that someone can get to these poverty stricken and give them what they need in order to get them an education. Right now I am doing this skoolaborate scavenger hunt. It is really challenging. I am not really liking the questions that are being asked. It is really just making me sick because I cannot find the answers that I need and want. But I will find them, I just have to be patient. I am so over this hunt because the questions are hard. I am also a little upset at the fact that we cannot enter skoolaborate until they get the first payment. I have been apart of LACOE for 4 years and they move at there own pace. So we may never get to do this project and it makes me mad because I was looking forward to making my own shoe store and going shopping and designing a nice big mansion and just living large and taking care of me, myself, and I.

Global Issues- Education for all
Feb. 13, 2009
So Sammy and I presented the global issue entitled education for all. I was really excited because I am very passionate about education. Sometimes we who have the advantage of education and free education at that, take advantage. Its sad because there are lots of young people and young adults my age who are not able to get a good education. It is amazing to me to see so many countries who don't have schools on every corner like my country does. I just wish that everyone was able to be educated. However, I found out that some countries don't even have enough books to go around. That is amazing to me because I feel that we have to many books. I felt like this was a really good topic to cover because I will be able to help those who need the help. When I sit and talk with my friends I want to talk about something to productive to help others instead of talking about shopping or what I plan on doing this weekend. I am just all for getting education to everyone that deserves and needs it. I wish that I had the funds to help other countries out with their education disadvantages. Education is a really cool topic to cover because you are helping others and I really like to help others instead of always thinking about myself. I wish that each child had the same things that I had. A home, two sets of parents that love me, sibling, 3 sets of grandparents, a host of aunts uncles cousins, lots of friends, and last but not least an education so that I am able to get a good steady job and be able to support myself as well as any other person I can support. I feel that in order for you to succeed in life you need a good sturdy foundation and I think that foundation is called "EDUCATION"
