Academic Language Written Assessment Week 21

Performance enhancing drugs, such as steroids should not be allowed in sports. It is a TRADITION to have a position on a sports team based off of your own physical and mental strength. This shows that, taking synthetic drugs would not reflect any of these qualities and should not be allowed to participate if using. There was a PERIOD in time when people enjoyed using their strength to complete strenuous tasks and didn't depend on a drug that does more harm than good. This shows that, by betting on this drug it would only harm you in the future. Performance enhancers are the PRIMARY results of people having health problems after using them. This shows that, the results might have immediate and life changing appearance but you will sacrifice your health in the future. In conclusion, synthetic drugs have no place in sports and players should not risk their health and reputation for fifteen minutes of testosterone boost and severe mood swings.

Academic Language Written Assessment Week 18

The United states should help countries like Haiti and Japan recover from disaster. It would be a good thing to INVEST in helping other countries because it could benefit us in the future. The people that live in distant countries would probably forever grateful for our assistance. We should look for alternate ways to aid those who are not in our REGION. I think a SURVEY should be passed around the country to see how many people would be willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. In conclusion, helping others is also the moral thing to do and you would have a much better conscience after you help someone.

Teen drivers should have special restrictions on their license. Some teenagers have not ACQUIRED enough maturity and should have some constraint until they gain enough experience and confidence on the road. Also, newbies tend to make more mistakes on the road other than the more skilled drivers and this factor CONCLUDES to more unnecessary accidents.

In conclusion, teens should have some form of restrictions when they first hit the road or else unfortunate events could occur.

My New Years Eve

I had a really good New Year's Eve. I spent my night with Melissa and Montanna. We started the night off with a few pranks around campus and it was super fun. At first, we started off with ding-dong ditch then we decided to up the fun a little bit more. It was the end of the year we had to got out with a bang. We turned off some porch lights knocked on people's windows. Then we put cones that blocked the front entrance to the campus and watched as a car had to around and go the other way. It was really fun. We pigged out on appetizers that my houseparent made then headed to the dance. The dance was alright, but being with my friends made it a lot more entertaining. We danced and and just had a good time. When it was time to got home a couple fights broke out, but what can you expect from children at SPA? Melissa spent the night over our house and we watched movies then went to bed. I had better time then I expected to. I hope this year is better than last year and I'm determined to make it that way.
