REAL STEEL (ID)

In 2020, human boxers have been replaced by robots. Charlie Kenton , a former boxer, owns the robot 'Ambush', but loses it to a bull belonging to promoter Ricky. Having made a bet that Ambush would win, Charlie is indebted to Ricky. After the fight, Charlie learns that his ex-girlfriend has died, and that he must attend a hearing deciding the future of their son Max. There, Max's wealthy aunt Debra  and her husband Marvin request full custody, which Charlie concedes for $100,000, half in advance, on the condition that Charlie retains Max for three months. Thereupon, Charlie and Max, and Bailey Tallet, the daughter of Charlie's boxing coach, acquire the once-famous robot 'Noisy Boy' and arrange a fight, in which Noisy Boy is destroyed. Attempting to scavenge parts of a new robot, Max and Charlie discover 'Atom', an obsolete but intact robot designed to withstand severe damage, and capable of mimicking its handler's motion. At Max's behest, Charlie pits Atom against the robot 'Metro', whom Atom overcomes. Max convinces Charlie to train Atom, resulting in a series of victories culminating upon national champion 'Twin Cities'. Elated by victory, Max challenges global champion 'Zeus'. Immediately, Ricky and two henchmen attack and rob Charlie, who thereupon returns Max to his aunt; but persuaded by Bailey, Charlie arranges the challenge offered by Max and convinces Debra to allow Max to witness the fight. Ricky bets $100,000 that Atom will not last the first round against Zeus, but loses his bet and is cornered by the fight's bookmakers. In the penultimate round, Atom's vocal controls are damaged, whereupon Charlie guides the robot through his mimetic powers to overwhelm the weakened Zeus; but is unable to win within allotted time. Zeus is declared the winner by number of blows inflicted; but the near-defeat leaves the Zeus team humiliated, and Atom is labelled the "People's Champion".

                                                                                                                                                        In Health class we are learning about all the different components that come together to help our body complete there daily activities. Our body uses nutrients as an energy source,to heal, build and repair tissue to sustain growth, help transport oxygen to the body cells and regulate body functions. There are six types of nutrients carbohydrates,proteins,fats,cholesterol, vitamins and minerals. Carbohydrates are starches and sugars found in foods we consume that the body uses as its main source of energy. Proteins are nutrients the body uses to build and maintain cell and tissues these are found in the amino acid and proteins also help you grown from childhood to adolescent. Fats are naturally stored in your body but the different fast you consume have a different effect. Fats help you stay in shape and are a good energy source. It also protect some organs and bones in the body. The three different components of fats at saturated, unsaturated and trans fat too much can cause cholesterol  which is a waxy fat like substance in your blood need to create cell walls, certain hormones and vitamin D. That's when high blood pressure comes into play. Too much fat causes to many of the cholesterol substance to flow in your blood which starts blocking your arteries and makes it difficult for the blood to circulate throughout the body leading to many different diseases and sometimes even death. Vitamins, minerals, and water do not provide energy, but performs a wide variety of body functions. Vitamins are compounds found in food that help regulate many body processes. Minerals are elements found in food that are used by the body. Water is essential for most body functions because all body cells contain water. The function of water is moving food through the digestive system, digesting carbohydrates and protein, and aiding other chemical reactions in the body, transporting nutrients and removing waste, storing and releasing heat, cooling the body through perspiration,cushioning the eyes,brain, and spinal cord and lubricating the joints.

Goals ( P)

I am passionate about being the first in my family to graduate High School and attend college. As I stated in my previous blog I want to make it somewhere big in life and become so successful to the point where everyone knows my name where every I go. If that doesn't work out then I just want a successful career in which I make a lot of money. Some people believe money is th root to all evil but I strongly disagree. I believe money is the key to happiness honestly. Like my idol " Rihanna" said " Money make the world go round.... still got my money ". I don't believe money can buy love but money sure can buy happiness. For instance money doesn't betray you , break your heart, bring drama, non of that money just keeps you happy and gets you what ever you want. I just want to be successful independent. Its going to be an accomplishment to know that every dime I spent is mine.

Abortion ( FC )

The thought of abortion always brings some many controversial arguments  Some people are against it and others are for it. The pro-life as the supporters are called always have the same basic excuse " Oh what if it were you that were being killed", " the baby did not choose to be there" , " the baby is innocent" " the baby is innocent" the baby does not deserve this" or the most common one is " you shouldn't be having sex in the first place. My question to them is " Are you going to help the mother take care of the suppose baby ? " , " Are you willing and capable of helping the mothers with there responsibilities?" , " are you going to be able to erase all the flash back and painful memories the sight of the baby brings"?. I feel that people are always so quick to judge others they are always talking about the innocent baby but, do they ever stop to think about the person the baby is inside of , the person who feel every motion and sensation the baby sends, the one who has to provide and nurture the fetus. NO ! its always about the baby like get it together. If the mother knows that they are not capable of taking care of the baby or going to be able to be the best mother they could possible be then they have the right to terminate it. Why bring something into the world that you know is going to go through hell that right there is the actual terminate  If  I personally find out that I'm pregnant today regardless of what my parents think I would keep it if I knew was financially stable but if not I have no problem with an abortion. The safest way from this situation in my perspective is to just not have sex or have protected sex. But, just because you use a condom doesn't mean you wont get pregnant. Even thought abortion is against my religion and many other religions I still support it. Because in this world you have to be realistic and understanding  I am not bias and I believe a women should do whatever she think is best for her regardless of what your family,friends,or spouse have to say. You are the one with the baby inside of you not them.

WHITE LINES by Tracy Brown ( SSR)

                       Before telling you what I learned from this amazing novel. I would like to give a brief little summary about what the book is about and express things that grabbed my attention and made me more interested in the novel. Jada left home at the age of sixteen, running from her own demons and the horrors of physical abuse inflicted by her mother's boyfriend, whom she was raped by.  
                     She partied hard, and life seemed good when she was with Born, the neighborhood kingpin whose name was synonymous with money, power, and respect. But all his love couldn't save her from a crack addiction. Jada goes from crack addict and prostitute to survivor and back again before she finds the strength to live for her and come out on top. And her stormy romance with one of the fiercest hustlers on the streets makes it hard for her to stay away from the demon that's been calling her name (cocaine). 

                               He hates the drug but, he sells it because he's in it for the money. She told him everything about herself and he trusted her enough to allow her to deal with the drugs and help him back it to sell it. She was able to control herself for a good period of time until she meets Sunny. Bones trusted partner in crime girlfriend. Enough about the booklets get to what I learned about it because the way this book is set up I can’t stop talking about it when I start. This book had me very interested because it sounded like a story that was ripped right out of someone who experienced it life. 
                         
                        I adore stories that are realistic not only because it’s an urban fiction book and its main focus is not only about sex it gives very inspirational and lifelong messages that can help you in any situation. For example at first I was upset at Jada for being a crack head again after meeting born because I felt that there was no reason for her to because now she is living the good life. But, then I realized that all the money in the world could not replace the love of family that she never had. All she had was her little sister but, her little sister was sent away from her so she was stuck with her disgrace of a women called a mother and her alcoholic boyfriend. The thoughts of those things kept flashing back in her head and even Born the love of her life wasn't able to fill in that gap.

Ms. Horne ( Government ) ( ID)

In Ms. Horne's class we are doing a project on the cointelpro and how government allowed the rights of citizens to be violated and neglected. I made my connection with Doruba ( Robert Moore ) . Who was accused with the murder of two police officers with no proper accusation . They just framed him and had him spend 19 years in prison. He was later on found not guilty and released. The cointelpro is basically a legalized spying method brought into light by J Edgar Hoover  he was a cop and against the activist movements such as the black panthers and other activist parties so he brought up the plan of having each committee go against each other so that they can tell on each other. Because he was clever enough to think thoroughly that the only way to destroy a society is  by having them destroy themselves. His theory was very affective he was able to clash all different types of groups and organizations legally because the government supported him and other followers one hundred percent The cointelpro was a very terrible thing because it allowed false accusations to be made and people were being spied on with everything they do in there day day life. I think this is a despicable act and it supposedly stopped but , in my perspective it still continues on until today .

SUCCESS( P)

 I am passionate about being successful. I want to be the one in  my family to bring everyone out of the gutters. I hate the idea of seeing my father slaving everyday to make someone else's dream come to light. I really do not like the idea of working for someone else and my temper and attitude is built up the same way. I am going to become my own boss. A entrepreneur there for it is not up to anyone to hire or fire me. The thought of someone else having control of weather I eat or not kills my spirit. I am a very independent person. I have no problem being to myself because it gives me time to gather my thoughts and think about who I am and what I am doing with myself.Even the thought of having a dominating partner in any situation such as a boyfriend or husband still has me questioning my future , because in the future I look forward to having my own little family and providing them with things my parent were not able to provide for me. I refuse to spoil them though because I do not play those silly games. They are going to have to work for every penny even if not physically it will be done mentally. I want them to understand the value of money and success through hard work either academically or doing little chores around the house and not allow everything to just be handed to them. But , without education success is just a figment of the imagination so I am going to step my game up in English class because that is the only class I'm slacking in.

MY BIRTHDAY ( FC)

HEYYYYYYY ! My Birthday is in exactly 17 days I am beyond excited. I have so many things to get done like my hair, nails, my outfit and my preparation for what I'm going to do on my birthday. I am turning the big seventeen Whoop ! Whoop ! which means a lot to me since I have a late birthday so in my mind I'm actually turning eighteen. I am ecstatic about the fact that I am going to be seventeen graduating high school and starting my freshmen year in college. Birthdays has always been a big think for me. Every year I just strive harder to do it BIGGER and BETTER then the previous year. My zodiac sign is a scorpion. My favorite color is Pink. Just the thought of the color pink sends chills down my spine. I am obsessed with this color. Its so bright and gives a fun and energetic vibe that just captures my attention every time. I like bright vibrant colors rather then boring solid and dark colors because I feel that colors can tell you a lot about a person and we are all guilty of judging people by there looks and what they are wearing before even get to know them. I love listening to music. Music should be a mandatory and essential aspects of every ones life. There are all types of creative genres for all different types of people. There is music for all types of moods or personal everyday settings people are faced with. I believe music has the ability to change your mood into whatever you want it to be. My personal favorite artist/ singer is Rihanna. I have been in love with this women since the 7th grade. Her nonchalant attitude and personality is what inspired me to be the person I am today and I thank god for that. I use to care a little too much about people thoughts on me and the way I carry myself but now things changed and I really think its for the better.

( PB)

I am passionate about becoming a model. I would like to become someone who is known all around the globe. Something like a international model. I want everyone to know my name and to also make a lot of money in the process. Being that I'm from a Muslim and African background my parents mostly my father is against the idea of his daughter being seen half naked around the world. Sometimes I try my best to shove the idea of becoming a model out my life but, its the hardest thing to do when yours always being complimented on your looks and being advised with the taunting idea of becoming a model flashing in my mind. Even in school I'm referred to as Ms. New York, Ms. USA or even Americas Next top Model all theses nicknames get me so pumped on my passion that I attempted to change my fathers perspective but its always to no avail. Being that I have to keep the image of being Daddy's little girl I fear losing his trust and love by following my ambition. But, I hope one day I will be able to change his stubborn mind. If  not I will just go into the international business field because that is my second passion. I want to be an entrepreneur and become my own person. I am positive that he would like that better and I feel like I owe him that satisfaction because throughout most years of my life he has been both a mother and father figure and not many people have the advantage of having a strong father figure in their life. I am not interested in being a model my whole life. I actually look forward into having my own family and being a good mother to my kids and not end up lonely like Tyra Banks. I just want to go into modeling until I make it big enough to have the right connections in order to open my own successful clothing and jewelry boutique maybe even a few restaurants. I am  positive that my goal will be a  success because today's generation is based on who is wearing what and who you know. I also know that no matter how drastic the world is or becomes people will always need cloths and things that are going to make them feel like "down" , " get money" , or " have swag" by wearing the latest and trending designer brands.
