"if we could choose our own books then it would make summer reading so much easier for me. if i dont like a book it is extremely hard for me to read it and understand it enough to write a paper about it."

Sarah Obrzut commented on Darby Douglas's blog post The Significance of Tan Skin...What is it?"I always have pale skin, but i never have the urge to go fake tanning, id rather sit outside and get a tan that way, even if i end up burning instead."
Davy Mellado commented on Sarah Obrzut's blog post If you are reading this blog post, then the world didn't end yet.."Um....just to clarify, there is no date in the bible saying when the world will end. And furthermore, it is written in it that people will not be able to judge when judgement day will be. I think that the real sad problem is that you get these…"
Sarah Obrzut posted a blog postIf you are reading this blog post, then the world didn't end yet..
On Saturday May 21st I bet most of us were all joking around about the end of the world that was predicted by a California preacher, Harold Camping. Camping had predicted the world was going to end back in 1994, but said he made an error, and then came up with May 21st, 2011 as the real judgement day. Supposedly there was suppose to be a massive earthquake at 6 pm and certain chosen people would be taken up to heaven while the rest would suffer on earth.Sadly, a lot of his followers took his…See More

Sarah Obrzut commented on Haley Bohl's blog post Future"Im still trying to decide what i wanna do after high school. I am still unsure about where i want to go to college and what i want to major in. it's really stressfull when your parents are constantly pressuring you to make decisions that could…"
Sarah Obrzut commented on Patrick Witt's blog post How Inhumane can Humans Get?"I remember watching that movie in health class last year, and some parts i had to close my eyes for. its terrible how these animals are treated. yes we have to eat, and they are going to die anyways, but they are living things too! I wonder how…"
Sarah Obrzut commented on Abby Muller's blog post Be Proud of Your Past"I really liked that day in class because i liked hearing about other peoples' cultures, and their stories. I liked learning about my family too, even if it wasnt as interesting as other peoples."
Sarah Obrzut commented on Nora Geissler's blog post ACT Prep, I’m Reaching the Breaking Point!"I agree.

Ill see how i Do on the ACT next week,…"

What if it happened to us?
We are all aware of what is going on in Japan right now, and how devastated their country is. There was a major 9.0 earthquake and a tsunami that struck their coast on March 11, and the sad part was, Japan was built to be ready for earthquakes, but there still was great destruction and many deaths. Following that, the reactors at their nuclear power plant started to dysfunction and start on fire, which released high amounts of radiation into the air, enough to be…

Pros and cons of having a job in high school.
Junior year in high school is probably the time when most students think about getting a job. We are all of legal age to work, and most of us are driving and need the money for gas or insurance, but is it really worth the stress and lack of free time?
Before I could get my license my parents told me I had to have a job first, in order to pay for my insurance, or else I couldnt drive their cars. That is the only thing that motivated me to get a job. I ended up getting hired at a movie…

What are websites like Facebook and Formspring doing to our society?
With the invention of Facebook people are now able to connect with family and old friends. Currently there are more than 500 million active users of this website. But recently the website has become a huge part of almost every teenager's life. Now we are able to see what everyone is doing today, tomorrow, or what they did over the weekend. This can be a good thing, but on the other hand once you are on Facebook you can't hide much from anybody. If something gets posted on Facebook be ready for… Continue

What's up fellow ningers?! :D Happy New Year! Somehow I ended up on the Ning this morning. Don't know if Mr.Anderson and Mr.McCusker remember our American Studies class from 09-10. Great times. It doesn't seem like this Ning has continued on over the years. What happened?See More

Adam Babcock left a comment for Bridget Babcock"There are many options out there, but to standardize is to tell a lot of teachers to learn something new or unfamiliar... it's a tricky subject. That's why I'd love to start my own school, powered by Edmodo, Ning, etc :)"

Justyna Chlopecka posted a blog post9/11 Skylines and Turnstiles
I'm not usually someone who writes a lot , not publicly anyway but I do love to express my self through art, usually visual art but most of the time the art I make is influenced by something . In this case it's a song a written by one of my favorite musicians as a response to the feeling of horror and disbelief as he watched the Twin Towers in New York go from icons to ruins on 9/11/01. The song is sad,…See More
