This I Believe

The story that I read about was a middle school teacher some where in the middle of the country. That finally found out that she was happy with just a boring life.

Reflection at Parkway

My reflection at Parkway is kinda hard to say only because I have nothing to reflect on. I haven't changed one bit. I'm still the same boy that likes to play basketball,football,soccer,ice hockey,polo,tennis, and golf. I'm still kinda getting good to great/bad grades in school. Teachers will forever love me. I hand in most of my work. I always show up late to all my classes. And that's the way I'm be for life I think. Don't get me wrong their were a lot of deeply depressing things that went on in and outside of school. But none of these things affected me, only because I have my eyes set on the end of my rainbow. These goals conceits  of me playing ball in the NBA or joining the United States Air Force just like my dad, and my uncle did. And with the both of these dreams I will be able to provide for a family of 6 children and my wife named Brianna Brisco.
A reflection that I can say that I learned was that "Birth is at the beginning of the rainbow, death is at the end, and what you do with your life is in the middle, so just make the best of it while you can." This is probably the only thing that I can say that I learned this year and it wasn't even from a teacher. It was from a friend that doesn't even go to my school. People come into this world with a set path that I think that they can not change even if they wanted to. Only because I know first hand that people can never change even if they tried their hardest. So to have a reflection you have to change in some sort of way but that can never happen.

Spurs Can They Sweep Again?

The San Antonio Spurs are now one of the two oldest teams in the NBA finals besides the Boston Celtics. Some say that they may go all the way even though they still have to go against one of the youngest tams in the NBA, the Oklahoma City Thunder. For the last two rounds the Spurs have swept their a opponents. They've beaten the Los Angeles Clippers, and the Utah Jazz with on problems. Fans are there in the stadium supporting their player's play well. Even though there fighting old age just like the Boston Celtics are. But the conversations around the league is saying that they wont sweep the Thunder like they did many other teams in the playoffs. Sport caster's are saying that the series will go the full 7 games, with the Spurs losing 3 games to the Thunder's 4 games.

To me I honestly think that they will beat the Thunder in actually 6 games. But it will be the most physical games that they played so far as of right now in the playoffs. I only say this because the Spurs are a cool, and calm experienced team, that has been in this position before. So they can almost indefinitely handle themselves. What I'm not saying is that they will win the NBA championship. I just don't see them taking it all the way this year because they might use up all of their energy just to make it by the Thunder. Overall they have what it takes to go to the chip, but they may not just have a enough weapons if they're put up against a team like the Heat or the Sixers come out of the east and maybe even the Boston Celtics. All in all the Spurs will not sweep the next team that they play in 4 games.

Broadcasting Whiteness

 I think that there isn't many diverse casts on the major network stations like ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX because many other races other than Caucasian don't apply themselves in school to better themselves to get a better education so that they can get a better job down the road. Like many statices say that barely 1/2 of blacks finish high school, and 1/3 of Hispanics decide to go to college. but with Asians 3/4 of them finish high school and 1/2 of them finish college. but then when there out of school researchers say that they mostly fall back on their family business.
TV is nowhere near diverse as it should be to me. I think that it should be equally shared between the top four races of the world. TV should be 25% Blacks, 25% Whites,25% Latinos, and 25% Asians. and then lets see if we hear compliments about TV not being diverse.
But really to me I don't think that TV producers have a responsibility to worry about if there shows are diverse enough. All that they have to worry about is if there shows sell and make them money not if there casts are diverse enough. But if their fans are talking about the show not being diverse enough then maybe there should change it.

Gun Fashion

      The United States of America is now really starting to get on my nerves now. First they don't want us to have guns, now they do. Second they want us to have a license to carry a gun, and now they don't want us to have a license. And last they want us to hide or conceal it from the public, but know they're making clothes for us to look fashionable carry a gun. I really don't understand Americans anymore.
      Do I think that this trend will go very far. No I don't think that this trend will go very far. It probably will last for like 2 months or something. I don't think that alot of clothing brands will go into manufacturing fashion for gun concealing. it was alot of trends over the years that just didn't make it that far, like the 70's look, the 80's look, the hippie look, the lumberjack look, and many other trends that just didn't last too long. And I think that the gun fashion will be the next one to go down in flames.
    point blink simpily the gun fashion look just wont work out for very long.

Health fair at Parkway West

        Parkway West has just had a health fair discussing HIV/AIDS, STD'S, abortion, adoption, drugs, unprotected and protected sex, the proper way to use birth control, and condoms. The school has a had the fair before. This fair is to protect students that are sexually active and to prepare the one's who aren't. This fair has opened many students eyes widely like one for example would be Andrew Kabanganii, and another would be Brianna Brisco. Like for example one of the teachers at the fair said "that Philadelphia is one of the most popular states that has teen pregnancy. And most of this happens between the hours of 3-7 pm on school days and on the weekends.
        They gave away tons of condoms just for protection because if your going to do it then you should be prepared right. But to most people said that the health fair opened there eyes up wide. Like Marlo Larry said that she finally understands what her mother is talking about when she says that men only want one thing. Another student say(Tayib Inniess) think god for these condoms because i was really running low on them

Philadelphia Really Likes Meek Millz?

     Philadelphia is one of the largest cities that puts out the hottest rappers alive besides New York. South side of Philly has a new rapper named Meek Millz. He reps north side to he dies, that's what everyone says. He has just been added to the group MMG with Rick Ross, Wale, T.I, Swizz Beats, and other while known rappers in the game today. Philadelphia says that he will always be Philly till he dies and where everywhere he lives at. They don't care that he went to jail up state or that he sold whack to his man's or that he parties every girl that he met. They just care that he's putting out some of the hottest music of the summer. And at the same time hes been named rookie of the year by the top 100's billboard's chart. He's been in the streets since he was 14. Out there putting that work in. Some say that it would be hard for him to change now because he's been living this lifestyle forever.
        I like Meek not just because he's from Philly, but because of the use of his lyrics with the beat and how he tells us the real life of the streets. How he grow up with the hammer on his waist carry coke since the age of 7. Also how your friends change up on you when you get some major bread coming your way or become famous. And last but not least how the females just throw themselves at you. But with all the things that I think he's teaching the teens of my generation parents say that he uses to much much profanity but at least he's trying to clean his self up. Out of everyone that I asked said that they will forever love Meek Millz. And when he leaves this land of the living he will be missed. He's some what up to a Biggie Small type of rapping level Philadelphia's say.
       To put this to an end Meek will always be in Philly's heart and loved.
