If I could go to college for free i’d do Photograph journalism. Photograph journalism is you take a picture of something and you write about it and describe it . I love writing and also love taking pictures. Charlie Heaton once said ” if you capture the right moment it says a lot.” To me that helped me pick what i wanted to be for sure i’ve always wanted to be a photographer but also i love writing.
Love or not?
Some people don’t have to tell you they love you to prove they love you. “I love you” is a three letter word that can mean something and that but also can’t. Not all the time dos everyone say i love you and actually mean it. Actions are what show a lot in this world. Someone’s actions can show if someone loves you, if they mean everything they say and if the relationship or your presents matter to that person.
Take Last Name or Keep Yours?
I think women should take the men’s last name because if you want to marry that person that means you’re committed to that relationship why keep your last name? When you marry someone it makes you and the other person one whole unit, which means you do stuff together and help each other and respected each other. Last names are a connection of family and ancestors, its a way of connecting two families together as one big family.
Arranged Marriage in Today’s society.
Have you ever thought about arrange marriages in today’s society? Do you think it would work?
In today’s society arrange marriages won’t work because if girls today don’t want to be in an arrange marriage they will just text people they want to be with behind their arranged spouse, our society can barely deal with regular relationships we choose, and everyone dont care about relationships anymore.
If parents chose relationships for their daughters all they will do is text a diffrent person. Their daughters will sneak behind their backs to be with the person they want to be with if hey wanted to. Also the kids in society are now crybabies so it probably won’t work out anyway because they both will be crybabies.
Our society can barely maintain a regular relationship let alone a arranged marriage. People in this society cries to much about everything when they’re in relationships. If they don’t cry in a relationship they will text multipul people and say they ‘love’ them.
Everyone in this society don’t care about relationships. They just want to have multiple girls instead of have feelings. This society is about not caring about other people.

Communication now compared to 15 years ago.
15 years ago people could communicate with pay phones, flip phones and even writing letters. Nobody really had smartphones like we have. We can send messages and reminders and so much more than people 15 years ago, for an example now a days you can’t find a pay phone hardly anywhere because they think nobody will use them bc we all have smartphones. Hardly anyone really writes letters anymore because it is so much easier to just type a message and send it
Poor or Rich
I rather be poor and helping other people. Being rich is not one of my fantasies, I rather be poor and have dirt and sticks then be rich. Some people that are poor are the most caring. Not a lot of rich people spend their money on good causes or even just help someone that is at a gas station that is a few cents short of their total. I rather give everything I have to help people and be poor than be rich.
Would you Rather
I would rather be unknown when I’m alive then be famous when I’m dead because then you can do whatever like a normal life then having to worry if this person or that network is following me. I much rather be famous after I’m dead because after I die they will just ask my family members about me instead of me. I rather just have a normal life to live then be all stuck in fame.
Are people more respectful online or in person?
I think people are more respectful online because they think if they show more respect it will make them popular or cool. Like people respecting gay marriages or transgender getting to pick which bathroom they can use, some people don’t even like those ideas but still share it to be in the popular group online. Most people don’t even care about that kinds of stuff they just want the popularity or the “brownie points” to be like the rest. But that’s what I think, what’s your opinion?
Future of Humanity
I think our humanity will be more reliable on technology. Everyone is always relying on them for GPS, communication, and for shopping. I think our humanity will be like the movie “Wal-E” where the human race is up in space on a rocket ship and everything is used by technology, even walking! Everyone is focused on technology, that’s why most people don’t sleep at night or get their homework done or even handling their responsibilities. That’s what I think about our humanity in the future.
