Dear Students of Mrs. Traverso,

I am a following student of Ms. Traverso’s. The best thing about having Ms. Traverso as  a teacher is her class. The class is fun and we sometimes do fun activities. In the beginning. Of the school year I thought the class was going to be boring but towards the end it started to become fun. You may think the class is hard but its really not you just have to write a lot. That’s why the class is called creative writing. If you don’t like to write you shouldn’t take this class. But if you do like writing youo should take this class. I took this class, because writing is my passion and I love to write. There really isn’t anything hard about having Ms. Traverso as a teacher. She really is a good teacher. One thing you must always do in her class is to never swear in the classroom. She so hates when kids swear in her class. She gets so furious you wouldn’t even want to know what she would do. She would give you a referral to the office in no time. But she would let you slide just once. When she is angry you should never interrupt her just don’t say anything lets just leave it at that. You can tell when Ms. Traverso is happy when she is laughing at your jokes. We knew she was happy when her fiance asked her to marry him over the spring break. When she came back she was full of happiness and joy. She was smiling the whole class period.Hope you like the class. If not your missing out on a good class.

Sincerely,

Dominique Bellinger

My initial reaction to the video is that the kids shouldn’t use racism in a mean way. That could really hurt other races or people. This says about racism is that people or other human beings really feel that only african american people or latino’s or indian people or bad people. There are some people that are really good people that have good personalities. It was a good idea to split the kids up with the blue eyed kids from the brown eyed kids. It was really a good experience for the kids. To see how the african american kids have to go through and what we have to face from other people. The blue eyed kids thought it  was funny but deep inside they really was hurting theirselves for doing what they did. This video also says  and shows how racism has a big impact in todays society. I’m really a racist person. But when I see and hear other people say racist things to pther people its hurts me inside because of my history and what my people has had to go throgh back in the days. It’s like martin luther king did the strike for nothing people still uses the n word and profanity everyday. It’s crazy now a days. Poeple don’t know how to act. When they in front of their family they don’t curse why can’t they do it outside. When their not arounf their family. Racism is just crazy. I wish it could stop.

Religion is an organized approach to human spirituality which usually encompasses a set of narratives, symbols, beliefs and practices. Religion is a part of my life. Why because I do believe in God and I would always go to God first for any help. I get down on my knees every night and pray for the next day to be peaceful and holy. Religion really does not affect society these days but it did eventually back then. Like when they had the holocaust thing with hitler and the jews. That was a big affect back then because the religion of the jews weren’t being accepted then. It can  affect society today because some people are probably christian or believes in buddism or any other religion. Saying that one religion is better than this or that. I relly don’t have any thing against other religions I just believe in God.  I usually don’t go to church these day’s but I still pray. My mom always gets on me for not reading the Bible that much but I read it on my own time. When I feel that I am ready to read I will read it just on my own time. Another example of religion having a negative affect on society is that kids at school make fun of other people for being a different religion. Then just being only a Christian. They only feel that being a christian is the best religion. What ever religion every body wants to be so let them be it.  Thats what I thinkm about religion.

A zine is most likely a publication of original or appropriated texts and images. The zine that I have picked is called snakepit. It is book that the writer writes about his everyday life. I could relate to this zine because  one day I would want to write a book or either a zine about my everyday life. It seems exiting and interesting I wouldn’t put quite every detail but I would put important stuff in the zine or book. The writer seems to really be into his woork and his artistic drawings because it was nice to see.  The second zine that I have chose is called Ask First. The zine seemed interesting to me because it had different topics that other peoplpe could relate to in life. One topic is abusive situations. People in the world of the U.S has been in a abusive situation and if they read this zine they probably could relate things about their lives with it. They could figure out about their life personaly. Another zine that I have picked is called Ten Thousand Things To Do. The zine seemed interesting to me because it had interesting topic’s. The writer say’s he writes topics about other people’s dreams. That is so cool to me because you have someone to write about your dream. Even though you can’t make your dream come true but sometimes you could but you can have someone write about your own dream and they could probably try to live their dream too. He also says he draws certain books as comics me personaly I love comic books.

My opinion is that the reason why the colored kid picked the white doll is becuase they probably was brain washed by someone that the white doll was good. I feel that that is just how the society is these day’s that some people would prbably feel safe with a white person these day’s because they probably think that the colored person is not good for them. They also probably learned it from their teachers at school or their freinds influenced them to like the white dolls. I don’t know when I was young I used to play with both the white doll and the colored doll. Nothings different its just a doll. People may think that one person might like the white doll is because their races or they don’t like black people. I stongly think that what ever people feel they should think of what ever they feel. It’s a free world people have a freedom of speech to say anything. It’s our lives to say or do anything we want. I feel that the children see them self’s as just expressing their feeling’s they don’t have to say what other people want them to say. Some of the kid’s say that the white doll is the good doll. Some say that the colored doll is the bad doll it;s their feeling’s they could speak what ever they want to say. I feel also since what we had back in the days over racism is people feel that it should be sides over that. That’s just my opininon.

What I feel about the test is mixed feelings. It’s kind of 50 50 because I recently do not have any thing against white people or black people I just treat them all equally. People may think differently of me at school becase I don’t hang out with my own race. My best freind is white but I still do not have any thing against black people because I’m black. My results on the implicit reaction thing was not surprising to me because I knew it would of probably would have said that because I just knew it would have said that I would choose black people  over white people, but I would treat them both equally as I said before. I just don’t get it how people could just say so much about a race or a human being, but they don’t really even know that person they would just say stuff to just say stuff. I feel that the researchers should wacth what they put on the computer because maybe people may feel offended of what they put out on the computer. But I stongly feel that people have freedom of speech of what they stongly feel about black people or white people they just dont have to only choose one race.

child abuse is really a bad thing in this world today.  what we should do to prevent child abuse is for the parents or child caregivers to take classes for evan thinking about abusing their kids. i know some people that has been child abused before. they went to foster care because someone  in their family was abusing them. we should put the people that abused the person in jail or give them a restaining order against the person that abused them. this is a big problem in our world today. its just sad and bad to me. its also bad because when the kid grows up they probably wont feel safe to either have a girlfreind/boyfreind because of what happened in their life prevoiusly. they probably would have trust issues with that person. it would prbably take a while for them to either come out and tell someone. from me personaly i really dont like the idea of someone being abused because thats like committing a crime and commiting crimes are not good because there are other concsiquences in the long run. a way that we could also prevent child abuse from happening is the parents shouldnt whoop their kids because when they get older they probably would take it as a mistake as them child abusing them. when i have kids i wont whoop them all like that i would just give them a liitle tap on their hand for doing the wrong thing. and maybe after that they would understand not to do it again. thats how i feel about child abuse.

the blog is a picture of a cop car and solitaire cards showing up. it was funny but that shows how police could be sometimes. they coould be tired but you still have a job to do. cops should be more aware of their jobs instead of just playing cards. they should just stay aware. another blog was that a guy was holding a girl hastage for 10 hours with a sega gun. it was funny but stupid at the same time. how could you hold someone for hostage with a sega gun. people must be that stupid these days. at least the girl should of had some since to realize that the gun was a sega gun. cause i know i would of had. instaed of having someone hold me for hostage with a sega gun.

Which way should i go? I do not know. One way is telling me to go this way or that a way.  One  is a door. probably the door to a new life. the other way is a house. the house looks different probably a mansion full of glourious things and  and also a new furniture and nice looking windows. I should choose the door to a new life because my life suks right now. I’m unemployed, no money, no house to stay, no family I could reach out to. On the second hand I should take the second path to the mansion because I need a new place and alittle bit of time to my self to keep myself calm and away from the rest of the stress thats been happening in my life. I don’t know this seems to strange where are all the people. Am I in heaven this must be a dream come true. This has never happend to me before. I must be one  lucky person. My wife treated me like I was nothing to her. Now I’m all alone nowher to go. I treted her like a queen like she wanted me to do now look how messed up my life is. We just got an divorce and now I have to pay child support for our son untill his 18. Man that sucks. well I’m going to make my decision right now. I’m going with the door even though I could of picked the other path, but I chose for a new and better life for the good not the bad.

  • the disatvantages about keeping a blog that its fun to have a blog. The disatvantages is that its kind of like boring to keep one but its different because yahoo its mostly about important stuff but a blog is kind of boring. keeping a myspace blog is kinda better than this also. keeping a blog will be kind of fun because your on the internte but i think writing it out on a paper is better because i could think better writing on a peice of paper instead of writing on a blog.  it gets kind of boring typing on a bloog because you relly dont ehat typing your just typing anything. which is what im doing trright now basically. its kind of harder because i dont really like typing that much i like writing on paper. i feel that i could be free with what i want to write on paper. i hardly type enough on computers. but i know i need to start writing more because once i get into college im going to have to start writing essays and stories. you have to read alot of books. im getting off topic.and plus also i dont use the  computer that much because i dont have a computer at home to use because i dont have a enternet. going on the computer is kind of addicting to some kids. like myspace bhut not for me because i really dont get addicted to things like other people do. well i really agree to write instead of having a blog.
