In my life :)

The song that I'm using is "In My Life" by the Beatles, this song expresses different emotions and things. It talks about that there are places they remember all there life, some have change but also some have stayed. The memories are lost but never really forgotten because you'll always have them with you. In this song I think they wanted to express that love is never really forgotten, or memories in general. Your always going to remember them no matter what, because they are with people that you love. It also explains that although people have gone away, like have died and some might still be alive, but at the end of the day you will always remember the memories that you have with the person or the people, because it just meant that much to you.

In my opinion this is a great song because it talks about love, and it talks about that you should always cherish memories good and bad, which people don't do. I also feel like with this generation kids take things for granted, like their parents, their friends and people that really love them and don't really see what they have, and then they realize it when their friends have left and all they have is memories. I also think that this song has a lot of meaning and emotion towards it, and it was made with different things in mind. Who knows what they were going through when they wrote this song, but I think at the end of the day everyone can relate to the song. I mean I can, I've had people that have left me, and not because they want to because they couldn't simply stay, but I will always have our memories in my me and my life, good and bad.

The group wanted to really show that even though someone might leave on purpose or because they need too doesn't mean you can't remember the memories and all that you guys experienced together. You should lose your love either because at the end of the day, your always going to have experiences with the person.


There are places I remember 
All my life, though some have changed 
Some forever not for better 
Some have gone and some remain 
All these places have their moments 
With lovers and friends I still can recall 
Some are dead and some are living 
In my life I've loved them all 

But of all these friends and lovers 
There is no one compares with you 
And these memories lose their meaning 
When I think of love as something new 
Though I know I'll never lose affection 
For people and things that went before 
I know I'll often stop and think about them 
In my life I love you more 

Though I know I'll never lose affection 
For people and things that went before 
I know I'll often stop and think about them 
In my life I love you more 
In my life I love you more

Non fiction post #2

The article "Obese kids likely to have 3 or more serious health or behavior" by Tracy Miller. Expresses how teens that have obesity problems are likely to have health problems at the age they are now, but also in the future. They can have health problems such as bone and joint muscle problems, asthma, allergies, ear infections etc. Not only can they suffer from medical issues they can also suffer with mental issues. Tracy Miller also talks about how teachers and parents when they start seeing it they should stop it. Also that teachers and parents should be aware of the risks that obesity, because some are uneducated about the subject, and don't really realize it's such a big deal and big problem.

Miller wanted to make the point that a lot of more people should be educated about this subject, and should realize that it’s a serious issue. For example she says, "The number of obese kids have doubled over the past two decades, these obese teens have tripled, according to the American Association of Pediatrics". This shows me that she wants us to know that this problem has gotten worst over the past few years, which is true. Another quote that proves her point of the story is when she says "The findings should serve as a wakeup call to physicians, parents, and teachers, who should be better informed about of the risk of other health conditions associated with childhood obesity so that they can target interventions that can result to better health conditions. This also shows me that she wants to make sure that EVERYONE knows about these issues, and she really wants to make a change with the statistics. This also shows me that this is an issue that she most likely cares for and cares about.

This issue hasn't really bothered me before, but I always see weight loss shows like biggest loser and things like that. I feel like this show should motivate obese people because if another obese person can do it why can't they? I feel like that also has a lot to do with self-pride and maybe they feel too embarrassed to go to a gym and work out, or get on a diet which they shouldn't. I've had people in my family have problems with this, and they don't really solve the issue until they realize that they have a health issue or something, which to me isn't okay because you should try to prevent things from happening and not wait until you get sick or something to make a change in your diet.

Are you informed about obesity?

Expresses how teens that have obesity problems are likely to have health problems at the age they are now, but also in the future.
