Comment on Where is Kanye When You NEED Him? by alizen

On the contrary, Barrister, You Belong With Me was not her only hit single. Of course, I’m sure you’ve heard many of her songs on the radio that vary from Teardrops On My Guitar to Fifteen. They’re not the most lyrical songs, but what I believe makes her talented is that she writes and composes her own song. At that age, and with this much success, I do believe she is most deserving of this award. I have to agree that she was up against veterans, but for musicians who’ve been in the business for several years running, I don’t think they were too disappointed.

Comment on The Lost Symbol By Dan Brown by kimberlya

Hola Barryeffinstar.
I really liked your fat paragraph, it persuaded me even more to read this book. I had already thought about reading it when you talked about it in homeroom, but your description of it here won me over. I enjoyed Dan Brown’s other two novels, Angels and Demons and the Da Vinci Code, so I think I will really enjoy this one. You summarized the book, but didn’t give too much detail so it kept me interested. You seemed to truly like this book, you showed it by the way you described it. Not only what you wrote convinced me, but I also liked the quotes. I agreed with both the quotes and felt I could write a response to the quotes themselves. This is the type of book I would read, but you just helped convince me to take action and go read the book. Great Job. (btw, do you have the book for me to borrow?)

Great post B-star!!!! I think that it’s wonderful how so many young people are taking action to help out Haiti. In fact, I know of more teens than adults who donated to RedCross. America should help as much as it can because God forbid a natural disaster hits us, we will also need help to deal with it. Anyway, Keep up the great work!!! =]

I agree but how many people do you know would actually do homework instead of going to a party? Because i do not know anyone like that. College is something we will never know what it is like until we experience it for ourselves. I think it’s a place where we are each on our own path, overcoming hardships, and finding our own purpose for our future. Your brother is wise. I agree with you, everyone is on a different course but do you not agree that sometimes people forget why they may be doing something? In other words, they may forget their purpose.

And truthfully, do you think it is really worth it to work our butts off just to end up going to a cc? I’ve known so many people that have worked so hard in highschool and in the end, it wasn’t even worth it.

Tashnia, you counter argument to my stament is pretty true. However, I feel that once a person is in college, if they are dedicated and consistent, then they can pull off balancing partying and their class regimen. I cannot speak from experience, because I have never been to college. But i have a older brother at NYU who says that “the great thing about College is you get to explore your passions, grow independent, and learn about yourself, while having the best time of your life.” Everyone is different of course, but it is all about finding a balance. We need to remember that “nothing in life is easy”, so getting and attending college will be hard, but it is all for the benefit of our future!

I disagree with your statement that getting into college is the hardest part. From my observations, i think the college LIFE is the hardest. When it comes to college life, most people are faced with much more freedom and with that freedom, many forget why they go to college in the first place. Inspite of having difficult classes, many tend to go for the parties and so they fall behind academically.

Hopefully all of the work we do now will pay off in the future.

And barrister, you really should have stuck with spanish this year!!!! We miss you! :’(
