Response to Juliet Schor By Betsy Taylor

I don't understand the essay. In this response about the recycling in our country. I think that if we were waster then we should recycle alot then what we do. There is a recycling a place at the pend oreille dump. They have the tin cans in one container and the cardboard in a different container. Then all of the trash goes altogether. I take the tabs off of the pop cans to send them to the school because they turn then in to get money for recycling. taylor comment about that we have ''no support sturcture'' There are alot of people that like to have nice things and just because they have a new car you would like to have one to. When it comes down to what you would like to have and what you need to have.

Entitlement Education by Daniel Bruno

I do agree with this story because all of my way through high school there was always someone there that want to look and see what i had done because they did not get their work done. On a test they would ask me what i had got for this question and i would say that I'm not that far so i can not help you. In college I do my best to get the point of the assignment and i will ask someone if i do not understand something that was assigned to me. Because in high school i had a hard time with writing and when i would read it would take me a little bit to get to understand the whole story. So i can relate to this essay about the Entitlement education and how in college there are some students that are hard workers and get the work done when giving and then there are some that wait around until the last second to do there work and then asking other people to help them get it done. I think that I'm one of the ones that like to get the work done before and not wait for the last second and try and put something together. I really do like this story i can get the point that the author is trying to say.

Beware of drug sales By Therese Cherry

I think that it is bad because every time I turn on the Tv and there is a ad on about how not to become pregent or just as your doctor this is for guy about viagra to keep you in the mood. I have friends that have over dose on a prescription drug that the doctor's give to you and i think that people had not have to go to the doctor for if they are fat or are having stress you should go on a diet and think about what is stressing you out and try to make a solution for the problem. I think that if the Tv did not have so many ads about prescription drugs that it is gross. I do not go to the doctor just to get pain pills because I'm in a little bit of pain from doing something all day and it makes me sore. I think that we should go after the pharmaceuticals and get money because they are a danger to are health.

The greatest gift

I really like this essay I could no how the mother felt when she just had a new baby and all of the there mother in the neighborhood were doing just fine with there baby's taking there baby's and put them in the car seat and going to get food. so then when her husband bring a puppy home and all she wants to do is hold the puppy and then she got used to taking care of things and then she started to take care of her baby a hold and love and then not even want to put her now then she said that the dog was going to have to be let go. It was alot easier on the husband when the mother is taking care of her baby now. So i no how she feels about getting something and not knowing how to take care of it because it is new to you.

How I Lost the Junior Miss Pageant

I really enjoyed the story. I can just imagine in my head how the little girl felt. Her mother really wanted her to try out for the contest and that if I only lose some weight then all of the boys would like me. I just thought that if my friends were going to enter the beauty contest then.
The other parts of the story that i like was when she talks about how all of the girls look if they are beautiful or have a flat face and how some of the girls are smart but have on breats or hips. All of us practiced togeather.

And then in the end sweetly how the girl said to her mother that i really now the truth of way i lost the junior miss pageant I 'd lost this contest at birth i did not think that I was i most beautiful thing there. So now i now how she felt because i was not the most beautiful thing there was trying out for a cheerlader and i did not make it because There was alot of better looking girls their and the whole school had a vote and they wanted the pretty girls. I thought that I girl was going to get the junior miss pageant.
