This is my story of how blogging has helped me. Writing posts that can be deep and emotional really helps me become more comfident in my writing because I know that the whole world can lopok at it, and I would be proud of what I wrote. Blogging definitley helps take out whatever you are feeling and you feel better after writing and getting something off of your chest. Blooging and interacting with kids and teachers from all over the world is like talking to people in your own state, only they could talk different languagea and live across the border. Most of us share the same sports or hobbies, food, and views on different topics.
Press here for the original post from the student blogger’s competition!

My family is sort-of green. we try to reuse plastic bags, and we also recycle our water bottles, etc. I would like to be more green, because I think every person in this world should do what they could to try to preserve this earth and it’s well-being. One family, let alone one person, could make a difference, and they can be a big impact and reason for the preservation of our beatiful planet. I don;t really think anything is standing in the way for my family and I, but we really don’t think about the Earth and the poor condition it is in today. I think a way that our family can become “greener” is to think about the Earth more in terms of what we can do to improve and clean up this dirty, but still beautiful, planet.

I think the publisher was right(defined as an intetion), because he was thinking of how the students would feel they saw the front cover of the newspaper. I don’t think he should be defines b y his actions, because he was trying o do the right thing by not publishing the newspaper.
What do you think? Go to the site below, read the page about it, and comment me back stating if he should be defined by his actions, or his intentions.

I believe that a a person should be defined by their intentions, because even if someone’s actions were intentional, they most likely have a reason. This is an example:
If a person broke into the grocery store but didn’t steal anything, and they were in a court of law and he told his intentions that he had for stealing, which was that he lost his job and his son was sick, so he had to steal a prescription from the store because he couldn’t pay for the medicine, would you define this as an action or an intention.
Even though the intention turned into an action, it was still an intention because even though he did steal it, which was an action, he had a reason to do so , and that was to save his son by getting the medicine. I believe a person should be defined by their intentions.

In think the future will be related to how people live today, but some things wilol be different, but then again, you never really know. The people of today will never experience what the peopleof the future will have, like the people of the past never experinced the lifestyle we live. I have a feeling the future will be very different because scientists are always dicovering new things and trying to make products better. I think the future will be improved for the best for the people of the future, just like our world and lives are pretty good for us.
