Teen Life Concerns

January 18, 2007

Hi, my name is Matthew. I have 2 brothers, 1 sister, and 1 dog. I live in a small town called Snow Lake. Our population is around 800- 1000. There isn’t very much to do around here. I really like sports but there are no teams here. The only stuff that you can do around here is go to the Youth Centre and go to the odd movie night. The Youth Centre is a place where teenagers around town go to every Friday to just listen to music, talk, and just hang out. Our school is fairly big but we only have 170 people in it. There are a lot of empty classrooms in the school because a lot of the kids have moved away. So………… there are split classes in the school for example there are 2-3 split, 4-5, 6-7, and, 7-8. There are so many concerns that we have today, here are some of them. 

 

1 major concern that Canadians have to go through is Global Warming. Global Warming is the earth heating up. Global Warming is being caused by cars, methane, smoke stacks, industrial places, mines, etc. Global Warming is taking away the homes of lots of wild life in our country. There are many ways to prevent this from going further. One big way is recycling.

 

Recycling is anther major concern. There aren’t enough people doing it. If people recycled it would stop a lot of other things like help stop global warming. When people don’t recycle we have to go to the natural resource and get it. When we do recycle the people don’t have to go to natural resource, they just have to use what we recycled.

 

Youth in Canada have a lot concerns and there are a lot of ways that we can help prevent all of these things from getting way worse.

 

 

 

 

 


Christmas Break

January 10, 2007

Hi again, I haven’t written a post in a long time, but here I go.

I am going to write about all the stuff I did on my break. First I had somewhat birthday party on the last day of school, I got over $300 from my family and friends. I didn’t do much after that until Christmas except play hockey at the out door rink with Greg, and Jordan.

MY BIRTHDAY IS ON CHRISTMAS EVE!!! On Christmas morning I woke up at 7:30. Now I’m going to tell you all the stuff I got for Christmas. I got a new TV my first one was only a 13″ but I got a little bigger one that is 20″. I finally got a new DVD player with 4 new movies (The Longest Yard, Talladega Nights, Troy, and Ghost Ship). I got a new game for my PS2 it is the best sport game ever NHL 07. It has a lot of new players in it like Alexander Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby. I got a new basketball it is silver and black.  I got another new watch.  I got a Rubik cube that my little brother found it and ruined it. I got three new sweaters two shirts ten pairs of socks and a lot more clothes I don’t want to go threw with it.

I got a lot more but I can’t think of it right now.
