Getting Deeper Into Questions

Malik asked: Have you ever done anything that could drastically change your life or the life of many others?


Brad replied: I have done something, that could have drastically changed my life, and my families. It may sound stupid, but one thing that I do a lot, is ride my bike without my helmet. This may not sound like a big deal, but if for some reason I was riding, and were to fall, and hit my head, I could be in serious trouble. I could possibly even have brain damage, if the fall was serious enough. If this were to Happening to me it would definitely effect me and my family. I guess in a way, I'm being kind of selfish. 

I Commented:I agree with Brad... I myself have done some very foolish things. For example, the other day I was driving and I accidentally pulled out in front of another car. My mom and my sister were in the car. If the car wouldn't have slowed down we could have been rear-ended, badly hurt or even killed.

Emily asked: When they talked about how kids used their parents to get to go to McDonald's, do you ever remember doing that to your own parents?  

Ben replied: Yes i do. I would always ask to go to McDonalds because of the Playplace. And then inevitably i would say "im hungry" and we would get food. And thats how McDonald's makes their money.  

I commented: I completely agree with Ben. Even if I was'nt hunger I would ask to go just to play in the playland.

Calli asked:What would you have done if you were one of the teachers at Columbine High School during the shooting? 

Tyesha replied:If I was a teacher at Columbine High School during the shooting, I would've told my students to hide until we were contacted otherwise. There was no way to tell if it was just a prank, but if that happened right now people would most likely believe it because of the events of Columbine. 

I commented:I agree with Ty, I would have my students hide under desks or in the corner where the shooter couldn't see that there was people in there. I would have also probably put black paper over the window in the door so it looked as if the lights were off and the room was vacant.

Jason asked:Do you enjoy high school?  

Jay answered:I do enjoy high school for the most part. I believe this is one of the better high schools, because we are allowed to have some say in what we want to learn about and that makes it a much more enjoyable experience. Friends also help make the high school years that much better because the friends you make here help shape who you become and how the time her goes. But on the other side sometimes stress can get to you and it can come from anywhere such as over zealous parent, school work, peers, teachers, and even the sometimes overwelming idea of the future. 

Calli commented:I enjoy high school very much.  Like Jay said, the friends that you make in high school help shape the person that you are gonig to be. High school helps you find who you really are. In high school you learn to branch out and find people that are like you. You also find out what you want to go after you graduate. So many doors are open in these four years. That is probably what I enjoy most about high school, the fact that I find out what I really want to do as a career. The bad part about high school though is having tons of homework. And most of it I personally feel we will not need after we graduate. 

I replied:I agree with both Jay and Calli. Like Calli said, high school friends help you figure out who you are and what you want to become. I believe that most of my high school experience so far has been fun but at times you wish you could just rewind and go back to Middle School where you know everyone and have been with them Pre-K through 8th Grade but once you are in High School you lose many of the friends you had some that you even promised "We'll be best friends forever." but you gain new friends as the saying goes "You have to lose a little to win a little."
