All me...

   To be quite honest i'm not much of a blogger. This particular blog my teacher said we could blog about anything we want. To start off, I think it is stupid that UNC Charlotte charges $5500.00 dollars more a semester for out of state tuition. U have to live in North Carolina for a year to be considered a resident. So what does a person do, take a year off of school or pay $8100.00 for 12 credits? You would think they would want new people to move to their state but, I guess not. Plus, they totally hold a person's late teens and early 20's against them. I have to jump through so many hoops just to try to get in, not to mention I have already put out $70.00 with out even knowing if I have a chance to get  in. Always money............ I have a 3.4 GPA, shouldn't that speak for something. If I wasn't serious I wouldn't care about getting anything other than a 2.0, passing. I guess nobody cares anymore for the little guys...............

Shot over $95.00........

        Yesterday in Hazel Park a 19 year old boy was shot over a cell phone. Johnathan Clements who lived at his aunt's house posted an ad on craig's list for an android phone. Little did he know it would be his last post. An unknown suspect answered the ad and told Johnathan he had one for sale for $80.00 and would also deliver it to him for an extra $15.00. When the suspect showed up to sell him the phone, he instead shot Jonathan and fled the scene. $95.00.  Is that really all it takes to get killed these days? It's totally senseless. How could a person live with themselves after commiting such a hanous crime. What could he have possibly got with that $95.00? He already had to put gas in the car to go to and from the city of Detroit to Hazel Park if that is even where the suspect came from. When this suspect gets caught, which I believe they will, as long as the officer's and detective's do their job, he will have a long time to think about what that $95.00 cost them. Their entire life is what it is gonna cost them and when they are older and have been in prison 10, 15 years or so and think to themselves how stupid and senseless their crime really was, they will have regret. Regret will not let you out of prison, regret will not bring back Johnathan , and regret will not ease the pain that will be lingering in the hearts of Johnathan's family for the rest of our lives. I say regret because to say he would be sorry after a crime like this that was planned all over an ad for a cell phone, you can never truly be sorry I don't care how much you regret it you are not sorry.

I Am From...

I am from kids running, loud laughter, candles burning, and lilac's on the table.
I am from flowers in the yard, the planting and growing of my kindergarten tree, birdbaths, dogs barking, and long walking.
I am from grandpa Ben spoiling me, Tina my best friend standing beside me.
I am from a small family but, they are good to me.
I am from live, laugh, love, "Smile, It's Free", and good times these will be and public speaking is not for me.
