Truth v. Lies

I think that a person should rather choose to say the truth than to say a lie. There is something called a "white lie" where it is a lie used to hide someone from the truth. What people do not understand is that the most simplest of lies can become so complex and such a heavy burden that it eats the person from the inside out. Similarly like the weight of the skies on  their shoulders. In some cases, people begin to lie to themselves as motivation to do something. Like hysterical pregnancies and being anorexic. These lies could include the most simplest lie: "your sweater looks nice" to maybe a more complicated and complex one: "she said she likes you too". Saying the truth is not always the right thing to do however it is much better than having to continuously lie to your loved ones. I understand the concept of trying to hide the truth or protecting someone from something that could potentially hurt them but when they do find out the truth, the person who told them the lie to begin with will be the bad guy, the liar, the boy who called wolf. In my beliefs, the best thing to do is to say the truth to begin with because no one can ever know when their lie becomes exposed. However, there are pros and cons with each choice. if choosing a lie, then maybe that person is saved from humiliation or pain. but in the end, the person who lied would become a dishonest person. if choosing to say the truth, he person may be hurt and choose not to talk to the honest person but at the very least, the lies would not consume them entirely of guilt. In conclusion, people should just say the truth. It's better to hurt them for maybe an hour or so then to be consumed of guilt and lose a loved one.

Success comes before work only in a dictionary

"success comes before work only in a dictionary". my high school experience so far had been quite the in-stereotypical encounter. Most things i believed would have happened, had never even come across. It has been very entertaining and whimsical. I have matured quite a lot as well. I have encountered new struggles, accomplishments, and aspirations. Each growing more chaotic by the school day. Every day is a new journey and a new exhausting adventure. But in the end, i can say "Wow! Today has been such a great day!!"

During my high school experience, some struggles i have encountered are my grades and keeping up with the daily updates. The hardest thing to do has been to keep my grades increasing and at a very high GPA. I'd definitely like my GPA to be one of those higher ones at a 3.5 or preferably higher. It is quite the difficult thing to do considering the course work and the extra things i dream of and have been doing such as tutoring little children, baby sitting for working parents and composing my music.   I am not complaining, i love everything i do. Especially the children. However, doing all these things has made me very appreciative and grateful for all that i have. One major thing i have learned throughout high school, is that our lives are a once in a lifetime opportunity so we must do everything we do the fullest and with the same compassion , love and effort as something we love.

Another delightful experience that i have encountered  is keeping up with the gossip and social things. It seems like a silly thing and a colossal waste of time however we are judged not on our insider but our appearance and the impression we make ourselves out to be. When we are talking to our friends, 93% is gossip, 5% is complaining about classwork and school and last but mot least, 2% is on what we would like to do one the weekend (please keep in mind that these are not real statistics but are based on my own experience). Another thing, is since our school is quite the small thing, nothing is a secret sadly. Everything will be out for everyone to know about. Lastly, i would like to get into my life goals.

My life goal is to become a hematologist and an oncologist. Keep in mind that this is no easy task. Theoretically speaking however, not task or journey is an easy one. Everything is just one big adventure. Getting into my aspirations, i want to do this job because i want to help people and see the look on their faces as i do something to make them grateful and happy. Truthfully speaking, i love helping people and i am a humanitarian. Although my biggest hobby is to pull pranks and jokes on people because i find it absolutely hilarious, i do want to help people and find a cure for cancer. I have an idea set. It may be wrong however, it is a start. This seems a bit selfish if i do say so myself but i would really like to be remembered on this earth as someone more than a friend, family member or Asian. And lastly, i want to help someone so they will not have the same regrets as my late grandmother due to cancer.

As seen, i have quite a load of experiences, struggles, and goals. It is very hectic but high school, i swear, was made out to be like this. With all these amazing memories and ideas and aspirations to be made, my hi school experience has been that once-in-a-lifetime experience that i have wished for.

Bullying.

I believe that cyber bullying is much worse than bullying that takes place at school or home. The reason for this is because a lot of people who get bullied from a website like facebook or myspace, can not really say no to the demands of the bully. They can only accept it because the bully knows where and who their friends and family are. They could use everything that the victim said or done against them causing even their own classmates to turn around and bully them as well. So when this happens, there is really no escape or safe place/time. They get bullied at school for misunderstandments and they get bullied whenever they are on the internet. They will not even be able to feel safe in their own room - their own home. If I witnessed someone getting bullied, I think I would try to help them indirectly. Meaning, I am not going to go right up to them and say "oh, i'm going to call the cops on the guy who's harassing you". I need to catch him in the act so I will contact the police when he is in the act. I believe people should stand up for themselves so I will not stand up. I am not saying that I will stand by and do nothing. If they are in so much of a troubles place, I will with out a doubt, stand up for them. People can speak, communicate, and possibly do anything in this world. So why is standing up for themselves not one of them?

Stealing

My intake on stealing is that it is a terrible thing to do, regardless of your circumstance. Although i did feel sympathy for the woman who was desperately trying to save her home from being demolished, it still is not fair to the person who the land belongs to. In my opinion, i strongly believe that they should put the people who's homes were demolished, into homeless centers and after they have enough money, to leave the homeless center and live in a home that WAS NOT built on illegally sold land. This really is a sad situation, however, regardless of whether it is a penny on the ground, to maybe Bill Gates home, the damage done and the sin you committed is just about equal. My point is, is that it is most unfair tothe person  who is losing money or something. It is sad for the people who were in situations such as the woman in Africa, but the owner of the illegally sold land, has probably lost the most money and it completely and utterly un-humane that a person would steal and sell something that never belonged to them. Especially of it is illegal. Regardless of the situation, the person who is getting something stolen from them is the victim in this case so they should be able to put the situation into their own hands and deal with it the way that they believed the person who stole from them's consequence.
