Its a Race that Crash

Race, its what he are judge by. Your color of our skin is that people see us as. Why is this? Take one look at yourself, are you white, black, hispanic what are you? Then ask yourself why do people always judges us on the contact of our skin. In the Movie Crash, its a bunch of movies made into one. They are separate stories that all collide into one. This movie  was call Crash because it was about a race. The type of race that nobody wins we just crash. Why do we crash in this race. Well because people will always be who they where raised up as. For my self i am a white Catholic boy, i live in the subareas but i grew up in the city of Chicago. My dad always, told me to stay away from the black kids. I dont know why but i always did. I went to a Catholic school where no blacks went. When ever i saw a black, i just stared looked at them. I never in a million years thought i was racism. I just grew up that way. Thats whats wrong with this world, we need to teach our kids at an early age. But this race is still going and people are still crashing

Draft Race

Ready set go! Have you ever seen tiger woods? He is half asian and half black! Witch part of him is hitting the ball? In our world we are judge on the contact of our skin, not by whats in our head. In class we talked about race, What makes a person black,white, mexican? But you should really ask the question who are you? I wish this world would change, change for the good. So people are judged on what they think not by the way we look. That what i took away this week, but as many of use know it wont happen over night.

Minimum wage

Has it ever come to mind what you want to do with your life? Well for starters you definalty don't want to  live of minimum wage because it is not a very smart idea. Well simple put it, it is really hard to live off that little of money. I watched a tv show where this guy lived on Mimimum wage for 30 days. I dont think i could do it. We the whole thing was about how hard it was to live on such little money. He kept on getting set back after set back that made it hard for him to get the thing that we value most. After thing about that, i really want to make sure where i want to go in life. I could become anything i want, that the american dream? Well not really you have to have money to do it to.

Hard Work

Have you ever herd the saying "hard work get you far in life"? Well i am here to tell you that is not true, you might see some improvement but you will still be in the same class, the working class. The real people of our nation are the one's who work for it. If you really thing about it you are in this cycle that never ends. For myself my dad has implanted the very words into the fabric of my life. He stresses on how hard work will get me far in life, i believe that to after reading that you might say i don't. But i believe that if hard work will pay off, and i can move into a new class.

Smoking Life Away

In most jails most people are there because of a drug related affiance. I am not saying they are bad people for doing that stuff, but if you really thing about it there are worse drugs out there then weed. For example beer, is so bad for you if you drink to much, you get drunk, i forgot is has the worst side effects, you are dizzy, vision impaired, the list goes on. Then why aren't people in jail for drinking beer. I guess the saying goes smoking your life away really makes me laugh because it is so true. I think they should make drugs like weed out there for the public, they could tax it, plus there are worse drugs out there then that, i not saying i do weed i am saying that if there are worse thing out there then why is it not legal?

Deviance

Deviance, the way we should act. Or should i say the way we are use to acting. What people expect the way we act. Have u ever been in the hallway and seen anyone drop there books, everybody walks by they just look and only care about themselves. But that one person that passes by and decided to help, now thats positive deviance. Another act of deviance is picking your nose in public. Gross right? the other day my friends and i where driving and we saw this guy and a red light get his whole had in there, we started to laugh because thats what people don't do its not "normal".

Does Age Matter

When you turn 18 you are an adult? What are you kidding me? How come you just turn 18 you are an adult you can vote, you are legal. The age determines what right in our society. When we grow up at different ages we are expected to do or learn different things. For example by age 16 you should all ready be able to drive, and by age 18 you should be an adult. I dont believe that age means anything. Its the person, for example when i was 10 years old i was expected to take care of my self and my sister. Since my dad was gone most of the time and my mom was gone. I had to make food for myself change myself and do the same for my sister in a way i was 18 taking care of my self because at 18 you are expected to take care of yourself. Also i got to drive at age 17 because i was not ready at the age 16 i believe it was wise that i wanted because it gave me time to get use to the road. Also on another note, Does age really matter?
