What item would you send to the future?

2009-05-28T19:57:00.000-07:00

The item i would probably send to the future would have to be a Nintendo 64 which was probably the greatest game console ever made. It was the first with actual people graphics not just stick figures or blobs. I would really like the future people to see how it all started and how retro it really was also i would like them to know that they should exercise a lot because it is good to be active and healthy.

What am i interested in?

2009-05-28T19:54:00.002-07:00

I am really interested in helping less fortunate people.When i was in boy scouts we would help by handing out sandwiches and food to homeless or very unprivileged people. The smiles it would give them really made me think like I was doing something amazing and it just gave me a great feeling. I really would like to get back into doing this or something like it.

Is it better to fall in love or to learn to love and why?

2009-05-28T19:48:00.000-07:00

I think it is better to fall in love because you get to choose who you do it with. When someone is chosen to marry you it is kinda like luck of the draw in that sense. If you date then you will have a better sense of what is good in a relationship and what is bad.

Favorite band/musician

2009-05-28T19:44:00.000-07:00

I would have to say that i don't have one exact favorite band but i do have a lot of ones that i really like. For example i really like the queens of the stone age and three days grace. But in general i like all kinda of music. In the last two weeks i have really listened to alot of music just to calm down and chill.

What kinds of technology do u use?

2009-05-28T19:08:00.001-07:00

I usually use my computer and xbox at my house while at school i probably will use my phone and the computers there. These electronics change the way i live because 1; they help me relax and find information quickly and then also they can help me release so pressure from the week like playing video games.i would put the computer in the same category as fire and electricity because they are so insightful and are great helpers to life.

how do you think the culture exchange project went?

2008-12-08T17:51:00.000-08:00

I think that the project was very good. Even though i didnt do the most participation ever i still learned about people from all the different places we talked to. Something i disliked about it was that we had chosen topics i think it would have been much easier for us to have our own topics. This way i think we would have found out more about each other.

Illegal immigrants in my country

2008-12-08T17:36:00.000-08:00

In my country there are many cases of illegal immigration, mostly from mexico some from canada and other places around the world. These people come to our country to find jobs and provide for their poor and starving families or to pass drugs along the border. Our country deals with these people by deporting them or kicking them out.

Yes the united states of america does have terrorist attacks many have been from people in the middle east, yet we have had some from here in our own country there is one main one that i am thinking of and that mans name is timothy mcVeigh. He blew up the Oklahoma City government building in the mid 90's.

favorite places in my country

2008-12-08T15:20:00.000-08:00

My favorite place in my country would have to be birch bay, Washington. I like it so much because it is like a getaway from the realworld. it gives you time to think about life and enjoy the calm relaxtion there. It also is very fun to go there because it has an amazing fourth of july firework show.

Diversity

2008-12-07T09:44:00.000-08:00

does your country have diverse populations? How does or does not your country promote understanding among people from different backgrounds?

Yes my country does have diverse populations. The United states promotes understanding between different backrounds by having different enviroments to do it in. For example in many big cities there are usually china towns where a large amount of asian people live. Also in big cities there are many areas where Hispanics live. In all of these places they usually have advirtisments or stores with there own cultures writing or food or much more.
