BRIAN...i've posted it several times now...in response to your question!!! find it!!!

um.any chance can you make a section for just our class? with the date up top with the hw assignment?should make things a tad better i think

i cant believe people actually live like that in Random Family.. instead of helping society they choose to be druggies and hurt society.

can't do that; besides, you shouldn't need that...I post individual plurks for your class...just look!

do they CHOOSE to live like that? THINK

yes. i think they do choose to live like that. they think school is a waste of time when they could be out on the streets making it big or

die trying to.

still sounds easier to me if it could be done that way.

think about the way they are raised; the CULTURE...

ok. so its part of their culture. they still have a choice wiether or not to continue their education.. most end up folding under the life

style that is all around them, and end up in jail, rich or dead. Boy george wanted caesaer to get an education, but Caesar decided that he

wanted to be a part of gang instead

i feel that there is always a choice.. the ones you choose will never be easy, but its your decision to make, not the people or culture

around you. you are your own advocate and the choice is yours to make for yourself alone.

good for you...all valid and great points...i'm simply playing devil's advocate...and you defended yourself well. wish you'd do this in cl

class...trust yourself!! It's ok to not have the popular opinion...although i'll bet most would agree with you on what you just said

its not that i dont trust myself.. im just shy and i dont care at all for class discussions. i really want to watch those movies..

good...friday will be fun.i understand being shy...i do...but you've got to get past that...

you're going to have to deal with it the rest of your life...discussing is a big part of LIFE..and you either contribute

or you lose out...no worries, we'll get there...

i know. there is no real easy way to overcome being shy.. but i'm working on it.. haha whats happening on friday then??

any chance i'll be passing by this friday??

gotta look at your test...do it the first time!!! Friday we're watching movies..
