American Love




Anything with politics simply makes my stomach uneasy. I try not to interfere myself with anything political, but for the sake of the assignment I will breakdown. The political protests in Egypt are simply unnecessary as they are only making matters worse. The president has decided to stay on so get over it already. Elections will come again and he will step down when it is time. Half the people interviewed didn’t even have a good reason for rallying; either know the facts and stand up for what you believe or stay home if you are just following the crowd. LONG LIVE THE USA!

Down With The Sickness



Sickness has overcome me. Friday of last week was the last day I remember feeling normal and I would very much like it to return that way. I don’t remember staying home from school ever to be this boring. The chance to stay home when I was a kid was a treat and a blessing in disguise. Watching movies all day and resting was something only a kid could dream of, right? 

Now I feel like a worthless piece of junk when it occurs. The past two days have made me realize that I am growing up. As an adult I feel like I am missing out on too much by taking sick days. I have responsibilities to fulfill and classes to stay on top of. What happened to the days when all I had to worry about was coloring in-between the lines? 

Sure, I get a taste of childhood in every bite of cereal I eat, but I want more. I want to be transported back to those days.  I want life to be worry free again. I want it to be all smiles. I want to be five again!  Ok, who am I kidding; I just don’t want to be sick anymore!
