Year 'Round Schooling

California is debating on whether it is worthwhile to open year long schooling. The reason why this is so paramount, is becase if it is passed it will be easier for other states to adopt the same method. This means that our own state could be open for year long schooling. Breaks would exist in the dispersment of 2 weeks, but this takes away from the summer vacation we all crave. China has adopted this, and their education levels in children allegedly are superior to ours. This however doesnt take into account good old American enginuty, and our ability to work together for the common good. What do you think.

Crisis or Crossroads

After the celebration of the capture of Osama Bin Laden, we all somewhate settled down and realized something grander than his capture. What we realized was that we were giving aid and financial suppourt to Pakistan to help us find any terrorists in that region. Once we found out they were housing him, luxiouriously at that, what can be said about the diplomatic relations between these two countries? There has always been unrest in that area, but this could be the final spark to ignite the biggest military engagment our generation will and ever see. We do have allies in this matter, but then again so do those who oppose us. In addition to worrying over potential war, our oil interests future in that region is in jeapordy. What do you think that should take place?

Summer Job

About two weeks ago, I filled out a job application online to Giant. Yesterday, I recieved a call from Giant. They wanted to know if I could come in for an interview. So, i went in and I got a job as a trainee. I will start by bagging groceries and moving shopping carts. This is my first real job and I am really excited. This job will give me some extra money and give me some experience. I cannot wait to start working at Giant and learn what it takes to have a real job.

Alittle Late but...

Friday, May 13, 2011, marked the 94th anniversary of the first apparition of the Blessed Mother to the three shepherd children at Fatima, Portugal. It also marked the 30th anniversary of the attempted assassination of Pope John Paul II. On May 13, 1981, Mehmet Ali Agca, a Turkish mercenary, shot Pope John Paul II in Saint Peter's Square. Agca's reason for the assassination has never been exactly determined. He gave different reasons, including that he was working for the Bulgarian secret service. Pope John Paul II later claimed that the assassination had been foiled by the intercession of Our Lady of Fatima.
