Immigrants, Students, College,Funding, Citizenship

http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/04/22/undocumented.students/

I don't know many facts when it comes to immigrants and funding their educations and activities. From the recording we heard in class regarding the topic, it seems that these girls might have searched for options to get into college if they had the knowledge of what they were missing and how it would affect their future. Lacking certain documents could hold someone back from the opportunities available to Americans.

The fact that these girls want to go and work hard to go is impressive and helps others appreciate the value of determination and education.

Worst Job

For me, it didn't get any worse than a customer service representative position at Domino's Pizza. My best friend and I met there in the summer of 2005. I was 19-20 years old. We had a great time getting to know each other there and laughing about every little thing.

There were a few perks to the job. We were allowed to create our own little pizzas, have breaks, phone calls, and leniency as far as prompt arrival to work. It seemed the worst because of the way all of the workers were treated at times by some of the customers and the general manager. Sometimes we were yelled at, cursed out, thought to be stupid, called liars by the callers. Then, our manager talked to us like we were less than others when he was upset with us or we screwed something up. It was like a twisted family, like he's an uncle taking care of two sisters. We had to argue over our hours to make sure they were accurate, just a mess. It was easy to tell that we were overqualified.

Lying With The Eyes

I believe that people know how to lie with their eyes. It sounds good but you can’t always tell who is honest by searching their eyes. I was watching a t.v. show when someone had to commit to a statement which kept him from going to jail. He spoke to his old friend who was an officer of the law and the officer vouched for him as a testimony or alibi. In the end, the truth came to light about who committed the crime and it was indeed, the lying eyes person. When people try to portray innocent to people close to them, it's a shame to see the dishonesty. Some thing has probably given them away but maybe it wasn't conspicuous enough. Either way, I think that people can lie to anyone if they had enough conviction to do so. This makes me think of when I hear about people not being able to control certain body functions which could give reason to doubt them, such as: an eye twitch, averting the eyes, touching the nose, fumbling the fingers, twisting words around.

I believe

I believe in Karma.
I believe in a higher being but am not sure if it is God or more than one or a completely different being altogether.
I believe that guys are foolish to think there are only 3 great women who come along in their lives. This saying was probably created to stop mistreatment of females in general.
I believe that insecurity and unstable homes generally do not produce well-balanced individuals.
I believe that my presence here at this time and in my body is for a reason.
I believe in love at first conversation.
I believe that people know how to lie with their eyes. It sounds good but you can’t always tell who is honest by searching their eyes.
I believe in practical jokes.
I believe that we will have very desperate times stemming from the greed and negative choices people live by.
I believe that President Obama might come across danger since racism is still alive in this country. I strongly do not want to, but I would be closing my eyes to reality if I did.

I believe that there isn’t an actual cure for AIDS for a reason.

I believe that nuclear weapons are a waste of a threat.
I believe in hard work paying off.
I believe that overeating is exquisite pleasure, but totally bad for you.
I believe that we should consider vegan, or what I like to call myself, flexitarian lifestyles since we will probably run low on animals for nourishment someday. And run low on animals to give the steroids to.
I believe that I will get the college degrees I want, but it will take a lot out of me.
I believe in extra-terrestrials.
I believe that 15 minutes of fame isn’t for everyone, therefore we do not need reality shows for every single, little thing.
I believe that all humans are hypocritical to a certain extent.
I believe that as time goes on, more and more people will try to think outside of the box. There will only be more and more categories made to identify these people and exceptions.
I believe that people should not complain about money problems when their priorities are in the wrong order.
