It is sad to hear about all the onnocent people dying due to all the fighting that has been accuring. It makes me sick when i hear the stories of people dying only because they were at the wrong place at the wrong time. I wish we could do more abou it but the truth is we really can't only sit back and watch Mexico be dragged down slowly. Ive always been a fan of mexican art and culture and nothing is better than experiencing it first hand but with all of the drama going on im just gonna have to wait and pray for those people.

Aurora i'm sorry to hear about your uncle passing. My father passed away from lung cancer. It was one of the hardest things in life for me. I am a strong believer that God does things for a reason. We should respond to this as a positive outcome. It is very sad but true my father started smoking at 17 now i see kids start smoking at 10. Cancer of any is difficult to overcome. i don't understand how people can destroy there bodies without any regret in there minds. In all honesty there really never is a good age to smoke or drink. I wish everyone could see the harm it brings to a family to see there loved one die slowly without being able to help them or take there pain away.

I can say from experience of my own that Denise your very right. I have a lot of friends that are always complaining about morning classes. The truth is i'm guilty of being a student that misses about two to three days and to be honest i'm never reallt proud of it. If its under my control i will go to class, but when it comes to my health i will not. It makes me sad to say that i'm a very sickly person and because of it i have missed classes all my life, and i see others miss school just for fun or they dont feel like going. But like you mentioned one must choose their path either to success or failure. Even though i cannot always attend i deep inside know i wish i was there every minute of it. I guess a lot of student dont realize how privlaged they are to attend school.

I most deffinitely like your taste in music. I am a person who enjoys listening to different types of music, but when it comes down to me having to choose it will always be Country. This kind of music makes me really enjoy the different messages it has to give from sad to happy. I've always admired country singers talent. I am not a fan of concerts too many people but when George Straight came down i knew i had to see him and the performance. He most deffinitley makes me believe every word he says. I do know one thing country music rocks doesnt matter how old or new the songs are they are all great.

Aurora you have a good point there. Today high school is very different from which it was back when my parents went to school. In my opinion people are loosing respect towards society. There is a lot of rebellion going on. My mother and father speak of the great high school years, but what i remember most is all the fighting picking and drama. If i had a choice to go back to high school i would not do it. I see high school students have to much power and are no longer being strictly enforced to follow rules and dress code.

A lot of people now theses days are influenced by many things we forget about who we really are inside. i'm the kind of person who is constantly trying to make everyone happy i feel like i have to hide my true colors in order to to fit in. The truth is people who care about you will only care if they know who you really are. So dont hide show yourself and your colors and forget about what people think. So Denise i hear you and i will dance as if no one is watching.
