just another day
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

So its just another day im supposed to go to school on time, but knowing me of course im late and miss three classes. To many people this may seem a bad thing because its school and school is the key to having a succesful future. But in Ontario the education isnt good and is not made so that every student can get a good education but so that every student can get an education in the first place.
The curriculum is very bland and so basic. Students become very ignorant and prejudice because they are not taught about other cultures and countries from a young age. By the time they do learn about other cultures and countries, and about important historical moments such as the holocuast, and or India gaining its independence from England or the berlin wall being destroyed it is to late for their minds to be open because they have already formed a fixed opinion that isnt willing to change. If a student thinks that people who are Jewish have big noses and are very cheap that is not going to change. If a student thinks that because you are muslim you must be a terrorist that isnt going to change. A good education can open doors, but when a student is subdued to cheap education that is concetrated more on quantity that quality than that can limit a students mind and what they can learn and accept. learning does not have to be limited to the classroom and shouldn't be either.Learning can happen anywhere and anytime so take advantage of that

Political Party
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

So I was given a group assingment in school, and our assingment was to create a political party. This sounds like an easy task at first. But so many complications occured, my group and i could not agree upon our party's name or logo,and our policies and platform. It clearly is a really complex and hard thing to create a party, then to keep that party running takes just as much effort, perhaps even more. Political parties are so complicated, now that i know this very well, i think i wont be so quick to criticize a political party, or government.

Conflict
Related to country: Canada

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

So today I was at the park with two friends, sitting at a picnic table just talking, when all of sudden i turn around to see a couple of 14 year olds fighting and pushing a kid down. My first instinct was to tell them to stop which is what i did, i was yelling hey dont do that, that's not nice, but then one of my friends put her hand on my mouth and told me to be quiet because they would beat me up. My first thought was i would rather be beaten up then some child and then i started thinking why should I be silent, it takes more strength, intelligence and bravery to stand up for what's right then it is to throw a punch. There were about 10 of those kids, and then plus 2 including my friends and perhaps another 20 adults and children playing in the park close by, not one person said something, except me. Which I find is disgusting, no one deserves to be pushed around, no one has the right to push someone and no one should be silent. If you don't stand up, if you don't at least try people start thinking that they can get away with that, and that it is okay to do. honestly i tell you now, "stand up for what's right even if you're standing alone" because there is nothing worse the regretting the chance you could have taken to help a fellow human, instead of being a coward, and or selfish.
