The Contrasts

Posted by Rell

We recently watched 2 videos in on driving and safety. One video stressed about the dangers of texting and driving. The other pointed out seat belts. Both the videos were able to put out there message clearly.

The video on texting and driving was brutal. It was able to point out the dangers. Show everyday life. Then showed the showed the effects of it. It wasn't very touching.

The video on seat belts took a very opposite approach. It showed a more touching side. The scene seem to be about family. It was the message was meant to say wear your seat belts to see your family another day. The little girl in this video was wearing butterfly wings. Maybe to symbolize life or an guardian angel?

I personally liked both videos. I thought the one on seat belts was used to touch the audience. The one on texting and driving was to horrify the audience to not text and drive. I believe the texting and driving video was a lot more affective.


The Odd Reporter

Posted by Rell

A reporter arrives in town, and starts asking the inhabitants odd questions.
"Would you think the weather would kill an elephant in a corn field?", "How tall was the monster?", "Would Brittany Spears bring sexy back?" The townspeople only looked at each other curiously. They had no answers for this strange reporter.

And yet, the reporter kept on. "How many oranges can fit in the empire state building?" A little boy answered "As many as you would like".The reporter found that the town had a giant ant problem. One girl responded "This assignment makes no sense." A man asked the reporter "From where do you come from?" The reported pointed down the road and said "That way." Then the reporter suddenly asked "How much ant bait is used in the sewers?"

Suddenly, from one of the storm drains, a huge ant appeared and grabbed the reporter in his mandibles and crushed him to bits. Miraculously his voice was still heard. No one knew where it came from and how. A dog picked up his vocal chords and ate them, and his voice was never heard again. The end.

We have been taught in school. About anyone can tell you that there is something that the teachers can do better according to what they teach. I believe that teachers should know what they are teaching and doing. The lesson should be understandable taught with interest. Teachers should have a lesson plan that can make an impression on the student(s). Don't bombard the pupil with work after work. Go above and beyond to make sure the lesson is taught.

When your in a classroom you expect to learn or at least that's what I think. The instructor should not only have an idea but fully understand what they are presenting to their class. The key points of the lesson should be pointed out. The general idea should be fully expressed. In doing the instruction their should be an interest in what is taught if not a passion. I believe that if the teacher shows this interest it would make an impact on the student that they are teaching something worth the time to listen.

The lesson being taught should also be made understandable. Not everyone is going to be at the same speed. If there are notes involved be informational in bits. The work shouldn't be bombarded. Set deadlines and post them up so everyone knows what is expected. Go above and beyond to show that you really care about them passing or becoming successful. After all they are probably the next generation that will determine where this country is headed. If they aren't educated correctly things will not change for the better.


Valentine Limericks

Once was a beauty with no brain
for her thinking was a pain
her affection was strong
she likes to kiss and tag along
but, that's before I knew she was insane

In the bed she wept
she had not been swept
off her feet I mean
her life seemed to lean
her prince always crept

She sure is a fighter
but only a lil lighter
her love is like trickles
and it only tickles
it gets me falling when she hugs tighter

She is similiar to me in many ways
the only difference is she really pays
the flight of her love
is greater than a dove
the look in her eyes I can’t help but gaze

She takes me to a place
that fills me with grace
it sure has a view
o how you only knew
with her her love i could only embrace


Texting and Driving your Choice!

Posted by Rell

Texting and driving has become the new popular thing in driving. Along with that popularity comes the dangers. It has now surpassed drinking and driving. The dangers similar to that of drinking your attention is crippled. while texting and driving the focus goes from from being alert at the to being alert about what your friend sent you through their qwerty keyboard of their new touch screen phone. I used to text and drive until I realized the true dangers. I appreciated that law enforcement has stepped and attempt to stop this problem


Life Changing

Posted by Rell

In my lifetime I haven't had much life changing events. The most life changing I had was when I got a car for the first time. I was able to have a lot more freedom. I had a job so I was pretty much good on gas. I would often take road trips. Sometimes I would travel by myself, but enjoy the company of others when I'm on the road.

My Car was a Ford Crown Victoria. It was sweet and fast. I drove it up to about 400,000 miles and it still would want to ride. Until the day and the O rings gave out. Expensive fix made me give it up.
