Heroin

Heroin is such a terrible mistake. Even the word itself sounds so terrible. I don't understand what people can find so interesting in this type of drug. It is just so harmful and like-risking. I have seen many examples of people who started doing this drug and it was not pretty at all. The whole sight is disgusting, I don't think these people are bright. If they knew better they'd know that doing it wouldn't be right. There is no excuse to start using any type of drug, mainly this one. I've seen it distance people from what really matters. For example, family, people who actually care, goals, and more.


I lost a really good friend of mine because he was caught up on this drug. It pains me to say he even started doing this. But things happen, and I hope people learn from other people's mistakes. I hate drugs. It kills the person they used to be.

I don't think smoking weed is as bad as smoking cigs. But only because I am not against weed doesn't mean I think it's totally okay for anyone to smoke it. I think only certain people should actually be able to use this. I don't consider it addicting. It just becomes a habit for some people. I don't see as many negative effects like cigs do. I find it chill for people to smoke weed, at times. Reason being, they keep it cool and not scandalous. According to some study, smoking weed doesn't seem to affect lung function.

Some people only smoke weed, and I think that's totally fine. At least they're not out there doing some hard-core stuff. If it was crack, meth, cocaine, or something it would've been worse. But no these people are just straight chilling and relaxing.

I'm not saying they should legalize it. I just think they shouldn't judge people because of this. It's not as bad as cigs. Besides if they smoke, what's it to you?

I strongly believe smoking cigarettes is disgusting. Something that really bothers me about smokers is when you are passing by and they just exhale the smoke right in front of your face. Another thing that bothers me is when they're smoking one and have their hand out with the cig while your at a stop light next to them. The effects of it are pretty disturbing. I've seen people lose teeth or have seen them have yellow teeth after smoking for years. I don't think these people understand how bad this can hurt you.
 
 

I believe people shouldn't turn towards these kind of things when they are stressing out. There's therapy and stuff like that. I don't think there is an excuse to start smoking. I'm not a smoker and I'm glad I'm not. I see all these young adults and teenagers who aren't even 18 yet smoking a pack a day. Clearly, these people aren't learning. They're slowly taking their lives away. But I sure do hope one day they realize that it wasn't the best thing or choice to do.

My Favorite Singer


Even though it may not be the most appropriate, my favorite singer is Honey Cocaine. She's a female rapper from Canada. I love her style, music, and attitude. She has this independent kind of influence. To be honest, I don't think there is a day that I don't listen to her music.


I believe it was my sophomore year when I first heard of her and did not like her music at all. But my best friend loved her so I would listen to Honey Cocaine only because my friend would play it around me. One day I decided to look her up on YouTube and carefully listened to some of her songs. There are plenty of inappropriate words but I think if someone's mature enough to handle it they should be fine listening to her music. After a while, I found myself listening to her at home and playing her album loud. Now till this day, I know her songs by memory. She's a strong, successful, independent young woman. I look up to her because of that.


If you like rap and would want to listen to a female artist I would recommend Honey Cocaine. She keeps it original. Be open minded about he music out there. You are what you listen to.

Favorite Hobby

My favorite thing to do is take pictures. I love cameras. I enjoy seeing the differences of every camera lens and find it so interesting! I don't think there's any other thing I prefer doing than taking pictures of lots of different things. Photography is my favorite hobby.
I basically put feelings and emotions into the art. Not many people understand how much easier it is to express your feelings with a camera and a lens. A lot of people have asked why I even like photography. All I can say to that is "words are just never enough for me." I strongly believe that a picture's are worth a thousand words. You can say so much from looking at one picture. The best way to do this is being alone. At least I think it is. I'm more focused on what I'm doing. I have my own Canon Rebel T3. I focus on what's important. Capturing the moment is what I do.
Ever since I got my camera I've been expressing my feelings and emotion by taking pictures. I thank my mom for buying it for me. Who knows, I probably would have been expressing my feelings the wrong way. Photography isn't just taking pictures, it's art.

Free Choice

The social network has gotten so popular now. I don't even understand how kids under than 12 years old have a Facebook. So many people all over the world use this website, including Instagram. To be honest, I used to be all about it my freshmen year till the beginning of my junior year. I strongly believe it has gotten out of hand. It was nice when people used these websites to communicate with friends, family, or people they haven't seen in a while. But now I am just so annoyed with the things people have to say. I am more than sure there are others out there who wish Facebook and Instagram were like before.


There has been so many suicides committed in the last year because of social network bullying. I don't think anyone should ever do or even think about suicide. It's absurd how people even have the time to type and post stuff about other people. I personally think you shouldn't say anything about anyone unless it is something positive. I know every will always judge but I just can't stand seeing all these unnecessary, rude comments on the internet. Instagram doesn't even have a way to message people but some immature young adults and teens still find a way to make sure they get a message out there by posting a picture and putting a bad caption about someone they don't like or get along with.


I just hope this stops as soon as possible. Too many teens are getting emotionally harmed. Words can definitely hurt someone. They can never be forgotten for some people. I guess the only thing we can do for now is just block the immature users of these websites. 

Your Favorite Movie

My favorite movie is Step Up. It's probably my favorite movie because it has a lot to do with dancing. Some actors that come out in this movie are Channing Tatum, Jenna Dewan, Drew Sidora, Alyson Stoner, and much more. This movie was out in the year of 2006. The movie is about a young guy who breaks into a school and gets consequences by doing community service hours at the school. He meets Nora (Jenna Dewan) and is super attracted to her, helps her with her dancing and makes her a better dancer. They begin to have a romance and later get a contract with one the best choreographers.


When I first saw this movie a few years ago, I started wanting to be a ballerina. I remember telling my mom to sign me up for dancing classes. Since I was small my mom didn't take me so serious with the whole dancing thing. So what I would do at home was dress up like the girls that came out in the movie. I would literally dance in my living room as if there were no tomorrow. I'd play the music crazily loud. I'd play the movie and stand in front of the screen to try to do the moves. As I was growing up I started watching the rest of the Step Up movies. It's a good movie for those people who are interested in dancing and hip-hop.


I totally recommend this movie to hip-hop and ballerina dancer. It's a mixture of both and it is quite interesting. I don't think the last Step Up's made are better than the first one. It's more original and the music tracks are way better! If you like hip-hop and dancing, watch this.
