Outdoor Living

     Living in the city is very luxurious compared to living outdoors. You have electricity, running water, and gas.The living style is accomodated and easier than living outdoors. In the outdoors there is no electricity you have to fight to survive everyday. There aren't any restrooms as well so you have to do your buisness in the bushes. To keep warm you have to kill animals for their fur. It can be said that outdoor living is very difficult, but you grow fond of it. You connect with nature everyday and enjoy the breeze. You have to search for food because you don't have money or stores anywhere. It is interesting to live outdoors because of the lifestyle. You can be in danger, but you enjoy the adrenaline rush that you feel. Also you need to make your own tools for hunting. For fun you can carve a tree but most of the time you don't have time as your distracted searching for food. Sometimes it can be easier to farm. To sleep you have to be on the floor. At first is quite uncomfortable, but you get used to it. That life style is very energy absorbing and time wasting. There isn't schools in the wild so many have to learn since their early age on how to survive. You can become very strong after a time of living this way. You learn a lot about the outdoors though and wouldn't want to live indoors because your used to a different life style.

Prompt #8

            Television has been an issue of debate since its invention. Many people feel television is an unnecessary distraction in our lives. I believe TV is a good source to learn about the outside world, but I think we should watch it once in a while. People sometimes exaggerate the hours that they spend on a couch watching TV. There are other things that can be done apart from the television. Our body gets lazier the more time we spend watching television. We need to get more exercise and focus on other productive activities.
            Television wastes our time keeping us from doing helpful activities. If we don’t control the time we spend on television, then that can bring us severe health problems. TV can make us blind and even obese. Our body needs exercise or else we start gaining weight. That isn’t the worst part, as with more pounds you get the more probability you have of getting diabetes or any other disease. We need to get outdoors more and get fresh air. Later you are obese and are incapable of getting a date. When you grow up you become lonely and usually have a low self esteem. This can even lead to suicide in some cases. The best way to keep away from this problem is to reduce the TV watching hours.
            Also TV usually misleads information. Some news are very bias and don’t announce the complete and objective of a news. They just show and say what they want you to see and hear. Many times television can be dangerous as this can brainwash you into thinking something
they are making you think. Many things on TV are exaggerated and dramatized. It is best to stay away from it. Especially elections they try to implement a candidate so you can vote for him. It is better to get sources online or on the newspaper.
            Television isn’t the best thing to do for a distraction. It is better to be outdoors or doing something productive. Many times TV helps you procrastinate which is not a good thing. Also in the last decades or so there has been an obesity increase because many humans don’t get the exercise they are supposing to do. It is more convenient for your health to stay away from watching TV a lot.

Visiting the Moon

A trip to the moon would be an awesome thing to do. The moon is visible to the eye, but is farther away than its visibility. Many man have dreamed to walk on the moon. Reaching the moon would be an extraordinary task. I would want to reach so I would know how it feels like to be in gravity. Also because I would be distinguished as one of the few humans who has actually been and touched the moon. I would have seen it by myself and be able to tell other people about it.

Earning Money

Teenagers often complaint about not having money. They go into a stage where they want everything and most of the time their parents can not afford it. To earn money kids should earn it. Doing chores around the house and the backyard and then charging their parents is a brilliant idea. Also mowing the neighbors lawn or walking a friend's dog can be done to earn money for things we want. Washing a persons car is another idea to consider to gain some money we need.

"The Baby Dragon"

Once upon a time there was a baby pink dragon. Her name was Rose. She was the baby dragon of two evil dragons. Rose was very beautiful and was very warm hearted all the time. Her parents tried to teach her their evil ways, but she couldn't use her powers for evil. She was unable to kill a fly. She was very skilled and the best dragon at everything. She would often get bullied at school for being so kind. Rose would always ignore the comments and would never use violence. Rose wouldn't get angry for any reason as well. Her parents were really worried for her as dragons are suppose to be naturally evil. Rose was a really unique dragon she was meant to be a succesful dragon when she grew up. As time passed she gained the position of ruler of Dragonland. She was a magnificent and incorruptible leader. She protected her lands very well and as a tribute to her wonderful leadership, a statue was made in her tribute. Rose marked a change for the history of Dragonland.

Summer

My favorite season is Summer. Fall, Spring, and Winter are, okay but they can not be compared to Summer. In`Summer, I enjoy being outdoors, wearing sunglasses, and playing sports are things that can be done possible during Summer. I like feeling the heat of the beautiful sun on my skin. In other seasons you can't have as much excitement as in Summer. Also you can vacinate during Summer as school goes out. Going to the beach and getting into the water or enjoying a cold pina colada are other things I can do in Summer.

Cloning

Since the beginning of age there have been many arguments between religious people and atheist. A topic that relates to this is cloning. Debate has been going on for the last decade whether or not cloning should be banned and illegal. I feel cloning is not adequate for society. I incline my position to banning cloning. Science sometimes goes against the inscribed human laws.
           Science and religion does not go in hand. Science always goes against the mandated religious. God is the only one that can create humans. I don’t think it is right for a human to create another human. Also I think it is unethical. Many clones are formed so they can use their organs for humans. After they have donated their organs, the clones are useless. It is not fair to bring something to life and use it just to recycle body parts. I think if clones are like human than they have human like feelings. God created us, humans, for a reason. If he chooses to end our life then we shouldn’t hold on to living any longer.
           Cloning is also wrong because they experiment on animals. To clone they have to run a variety of tests which can be painful. The tests can be harmful and hurt some innocent animals. After the cloning process animals don’t go back to their normal lives. Using clones for our convenience is really selfish. To find cures for some diseases we should look for other different types of methods. Animals should not be in experiment rooms, they should be out roaming the wilderness.
           If cloning was legal then where would they belong?  They would be discriminated in society. Human beings would not want to have a clone as a neighbor as they consider them healthy and a mistake from nature. I ask then where would clones go? That would be a problem because I doubt anyone on Earth would want them close. Also they would increase the population, decrease the food rations, and the water supply. They would also interrupt the normal life cycle. Other questions to ask would be how long will they be able to survive on our world and would they be able to reproduce? Cloning isn’t the only problem that comes with this process, but there are other issues that can be involved in here. The best thing to do would be to ban the creation of clones. With the banning of clothing we will be able to maintain our same life styles. Human beings shouldn’t interfere in things we belong.
           Cloning can negatively change the human civilization as we know it. We are already considered to be a violent and selfish civilization. Instead of using these methods to survive longer, we should just all face our own destined death. We all reach that stage and have to live through it. Humans need to die to gain peace that this world rarely offers. Cloning goes against our society, morality, and even our dignity.
