R&J Journals

2/7
In movies I usually prefer happy endings cause there always happy and nothing goes wrong, but if it's always a happy ending then its not fun to watch movies so if they have something tragic happen it makes movies fun and exciting to watch rather then happy movies all the time. So If you had love and romantic happy ending movies and nothing scary or funny then everyone would hate watching movies and never would watch them again cause there is no point to watch the same ending all the time, so if you had scary and funny in the mix you would never know how a movie would end making it all the better and exciting to watch all the time.
2/6
The most damaging habit a teenager can have is relying on their parents to do everything for them and believing electronics and cell phones are there life and cant live without them. If they learn to let their parents do all their work for them then when they are older and move out they wont know how to do anything at all cause their whole life they were brought up where not doing anything was OK and that mommy and daddy where always there to do it for them and with that their spouses later on in life are the ones stuck doing all the work and will cause a lot of arguments between them. If they learn to live for their electronics and phones then they learn that they can't live without them and then they never leave them and are on them all the time causing problems down the road for it.

Many Teenagers can have many destructive habits. I think the worst Habits that a teenager can have would be doing drugs, Smoking, Drinking, and Breaking the Law. I think that doing drugs is the worst habit out of all of them. Some bad habits in school are things like not doing your homework and sleeping in class are bad habits to do in school. Also running away is bad. In Romeo and Juliet they run away and that is a bad habit. That is my opinion on this journal prompt and what i think about teenagers destructive habits.

I do not like unhappy endings. I think unhappy endings are a bad thing. I dont like unhappy endings because they can make me unhappy sometimes. And also they make the story bad at the end. I prefer happy endings. I prefer happy endings because they can make me happy and make the end of the story good. That is is my opinion on unhappy endings and on happy endings. That is what i think about this statement.


Dose Fate have a hand in my life?

Yes, I do believe that fate has a hand in the direction in my life. On the other hand I also think you can choose your fate. The reason I think this is because everyday you wake up and choose your fate till the end of the day. Like if you hang out with kids who make bad decisions your more likely to make them too, compared to if you hang out with people who make better decisions. Your fate can sometimes be uncontrollable but lots of times you can help make your fate things that are good for your life.

What is the most destructive or damaging thing a teen can do?

The most damaging thing a teen can do is to be addicted to the media. Lots of kids or young adults focus a lot of there attention to the media, and they let it influence them. Think about the teenagers you know and how focused they are on things that the media has told them is "cool" or "in-style". Some other things that the media influence kids to do it things like smoking or drinking they make it look appealing to teens who don't know better. The media has effected many people in are generation, I think the media has negatively effected the society. 

Unhappy endings, are they better for the world?

Some people prefer unhappy endings more then happy endings. People also say unhappy stories are more realistic. People even say unhappy ending are better for the world. I think that every story should not have a happy ending; likewise I think every story should not have an unhappy ending. If we want are stories to be more realistic and better for the world we should have a mix of happy and unhappy endings. The world is not always black and white as we would like to believe we also need some mundane endings to 'spice' things up.

Twilight

Love can be forbidden not only by family, or the community but because of who or what you are. In the series Twilight Bella swan and Edward Cullen's love is forbidden because he is a vampire and she is human. Once Bella finds that Edward and his family are vampires she becomes in danger of being targeted by the Volturi. The Volturi are the highest class vampires, they make the laws and forbade any vampire to reveal himself to any human, or to make their existence known. Love can be forbidden in many ways whether it be by community, race, or even family name, but if it is true love, it will find a way. True love always finds its way into somebody, whether they want it to or not.

Love can be forbidden in many circumstances. The differences in the couple in the "Twilight" series are of race. Edward and Bella are in a forbidden romance with each other and promoted by many to end the relationship. Edward was once human but now he is eternally a vampire and must fight himself in the love he has for Bella. Bella is a mortal but will do anything to stay with her beloved Edward. On the date in Chapter 17, Edward senses the other vampires coming and must prepare to protect Bella for his love demands him to. In addition to the differences of the two, the self-approval of each lover makes the romance even hard to cope with.

In the story "Twilight" Bella and Edwards love is forbidden because of Edward being a vampire and Bella not being one. There are also some people trying to stop Bella from even hanging out with Edward. Charlie is one of those people, in chapter 17 he says, "Don't do what you're doing." meaning, don't hang out with Edward. There are a lot of things forbidding Bella and Edwards love. It almost makes them being together seem impossible.

Edward and Bella have a forbidden love, that many try to forbid.
In chapter 17 Billy finds out that Bella is "Well informed" about the Cullen family, and is in fact "better informed than he is." And Billy tries telling her to stop what she's doing. He wants Bella to stop seeing Edward, and being friendly with the Cullen family. I think in other words, Billy was trying to "forbid" Bella from loving Edward. Witch, Bella ignored and rejected. As proof, she went to a baseball game with Edward that night after dinner. I personally think that the nomad vampires, the ones that show up during the baseball game will try to forbid Edward and Bella's love. I think that all through Bella and Edward's love, many will try to forbid them from loving each other, but I don't think that any of it will work.

Life of Importance

Yes, i can do something big and important with my life. It's not with the rain-forest but that is important to but the thing i would like to do with my life is help others with problem's. I would like to improve lives of people who have problem's with wolves or any other kind of prediter. I think it is important that people understand that we need wolves and other kinds of animal to make the food chain stay in check. Some people thing that animals are evil but i think there wrong but that is just my opinion. I think this is important and this is what i plane to do with my life is help people with there wolf or any other kind of prediter problem.

I believe I can do something big and important with my life. I believe this because I like to make differences in people's lives. I can also get other people to make differences in a community. Last year I got all my friends to help do charity work in Bend. We painted the homeless shelters, and donated food and supplies. After high school I plan to start non profit organizations with a few of my friends, to help people in need all around the world. Changing lives is big and important, and I know that I can continue to do it and I will for as long as I can. 

I believe anyone and can do something big and important with their life. Everyone has a chance to be a better person, and do something important. A good example is Oprah Winfrey, she has done something very big and important with her life. Don't waste your years of living on being a convict, and being a bad person. Use your years to become a better person and help others. I want to be something involved in the medical field and I know that helps people!

I have the potential to do something important with my life. I am smart, I stay focus, and am stubborn when it comes to what I want. I don't let anything get in my way, and fight for what I believe right when I think it is right to. What i do now affects my future to an extent that everyone continues to stress to me, so I try to stay on the right path. If I stay on the path that I am currently walking, I can do greatness with my life. A person’s past has a lot of influence on their future. A kid who screwed up his education, probably doesn’t have as good of a chance to do greatness. Then again greatness is a opinion so maybe it is that it is matter only lies in the importance of the beholder? Everyone has the opportunity to do something good with their life, be it societies justification or their own. Personally the only justification I need from anyone to determine whether what I am doing is important or not is my own, and the opinions from those close to me.

yes, because you can do your learning at home, and school work at school, and if you needed any help right at the desk is the teacher, and that way you don't have to sit at home at the table pondering on weather the work is right or wrong, so lean at home, and do the work at school in class with the help of your teacher, it helps you learn a lot better then learning at school, and doing work at home at that stinky kitchen table all night hoping that its right or wrong. flipping the class room is a great idea for kids who are having trouble in school with learning, and doing work at home well i think yes they have been wrong to be teaching as they are now i think learning at home is a lot better then learning in a class room full of people.
I don't think that the way schools have been teaching is wrong but I do think that that the way the video shows would be smart. If we watch the video of the teacher at home we can't ask questions. On the other hand it is also good because you can learn at your own pace by replaying the video. I would enjoy being able to do homework at school instead of at home because I could ask my teacher about any thing I need help on. But I feel like the whole entire class time for doing homework is a long time of a lot of boring work. I have no preference on weather we learn in class or at home.
Yes schools have been wrong to teach us as they have. The current accepted way of teaching was meant to make two type of people: the factory worker ,and the manager. It also groups up people by age, so that the factory's would have a steady stream for growth and replacements. It also doesn't teach everyone the mastery of skills (i.e. math,history, etc..) and will move on whenmost and not all students get it. This way of teaching results in holes in peoples knowledge and can make them fail later in life. For schools to fix this they will need to be ''flipped'' to better fit everyone's pace and needs.
