Importance of voting

Voting is very essential in our society today. There are so many things that happen in the world today that people either stand for or don’t agree with. In one of our Comp I classes, I had the opportunity to listen to a couple students talk about the importance of voting. A lot of people in our society today think that voting is not necessary and is a waste of time, but when it comes down to issues that they care about, they all of a sudden care about what the government is doing. I learned that voting truly does matter, and even though you may not care about all the issues of one certain thing, it’s important to still have your say. You can’t always rely on what other people think about someone in politics. You have to do your research for things that you care about in society, because other people may not care about the issues you are concerned about. This informational study was meaningful to me because I realized that my vote does actually count. It’s so important to get out there and vote because every vote makes a difference in who wins in elections. A lot of people just like to vote for the presidential elections, but people don’t understand that it is also important to vote for the smaller things, like governor and senators. Mayors are also very important to vote for because they control what happens in your city or county. Just the smallest little things like where a street or highway is built can have an effect on you, this is so important to be able to vote for a person that feels the same way you do about your society. I will remember all of what was said in class because I am eligible to vote. I think that the person talking to our class about voting was a very good idea. After they finished their power point on voting, they informed us about the days that registration for voting would be held on campus. This gives all students an opportunity to get involved in voting and having a say in their government and changes that may need to be made. If people care about the army and war, they should focus on voting for people that have the same view on war, like whether our troops should be sent out to fight, or come back home to their families. The importance of voting is rising in the world as we speak, and more and more people are starting to realize that in order for things to change they have to make a stand and find people that care, not just go along with what everyone else thinks about a certain person.

30 years from now

-It’s my first day of college in 2041; the alarm on my phone wakes me up and starts to tell me the things I have to do on my schedule. I yell out “lights on” in my dorm room, and the light turn on. Next thing I do is hop in the shower. When I get out the shower, I press the button on the wall to make me some coffee. A bell rings and my coffee pops out from a little hole in the wall (hot and fresh). My alarm on my phone rings again to let me know I have classes in an hour. As I get ready, I watch a little T.V. When it’s time for class, I get out my “class pad” and turn to the channel my professor is on (yes class at home). I fix my lunch by ordering on our lunch menu, from our dorm room walls. When class is over, I decide I want to go shopping, so I walk over to my solar car and driver down to the mall. There, someone a waits to escort me to all the shops I desire to go to. They tell me what the rest of my schedule is that remains, by getting it from my phone through Bluetooth. As my day continues I go to dinner with my parents. We eat lots of food, and when it is time to pay, the waitress comes out to our table and scans my father’s hand (bill paid for). When I get back to my dorm room I decide to call my friends and we video chat from my phone, that connects to my wall so I can see them on a big screen. As I get tired I change into my pj’s , and get into my bed. I yell out “lights off” and my light turns off. Then I tell my phone to set schedule for the next day. My phone then tells me schedule set, and I fall asleep.

This advertisment is from McDonalds. Buying a Agus Third Pounder for a cheap price is what all customers want. Eating big food for less. When people come to McDonalds this is what they expect, a nice big juicy burger with all their favorite "vegetable on it" making it seem healthy by having a big pieces of lettuce and tomatoes with onions aswell.

In reality this is what people are really getting. FALSE ADVERTISMENT. McDonalds lures their guest in by seducing them with the picture of what is "suppose" to be the Angus Third pounder, when in reality all they recieve is probably the same thing as a kids meal cheese burger.

Life Style Change.

It would take 3.8 earths to provide enough resources for my lifestyle of living. I spend 16% on food, 52% on services, 16% on goods,11% on mobility, and 6% on shelter. It would take 17.1 global acres (17.1 tons of carbon dioxide) of the Earth’s productive area to support my lifestyle as well. I see a footprint as making an impact in someone's life in some type of way. Whether it be helping someone in need, or setting an example on what and what not to do. I think that if i work on how much services like water I use, my lifestyle would dramatically change. Sometimes I often do take what I have for granted.

Life as we know it.

Hello there :) My name is Shante’. I love singing and dancing and have been doing so since I was three years old. My favorite color is purple and wouldn’t change it for the world. I’m from Oviedo, FL which is located right around Orlando, FL. I’m not a shy person and don’t mind being myself around people I don’t know (even though at times people think I’m weird). I’m the type of person that always has to be doing something because I get bored very easily. I’m currently trying to pursue a career in Athletic Training into Physical Therapy, but we will see how far that goes. I went to Hagerty High school and was the third graduating class. I absolutely love sports, especially football, even though I’m not an athletic person at all. I’m IN LOVE with Skittles, and that’s pretty much the only candy I will eat. I don’t drink soda and I’m a very picky eater. I’m the youngest child and have two older brothers. I absolutely hate being the only girl and the youngest sibling because I get so protected to the point that it annoys me. I love to cook and wish I could cook more often than time allows me to right now. I live every day to the fullest and I believe that everything happens for a reason and I don’t regret any decisions or choices I make, I deal with the consequences. I also believe that someone can only truly fall in love once, you might think you know what love is until you find something better <3. As for me, my heart is taken. I’m looking forward for what my future has in store for me and can’t wait to enjoy my college experience. Hopefully I don’t get lazy at any point in time!
