How do we perceive beauty?         Everyone sees the world in their own eyes, its their perspective and their view on the things around them. So everyone has their own perspective of beauty as well. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." There is nothing that is beautiful, its something that people think is beautiful. Just like when someones says nothing is truly perfect, nothing is truly beautiful. Beauty can be set as an unrealistic goal that can never be achieved, that is why it is important to find beauty in yourself.   Do we stop and appreciate it enough?        Very often we find ourselves caught up in our own lives, unable to really sit down and focus on the world around you. For example in the article  Pearls Before Breakfast: Can One of the Nations Greatest Musicians Cut Through the Fog of a DC Rush Hour? All the people that passed this great artist were all focused on the thing right in front of the them. The p...

 143 years old  hundreds the court of criminal appeals   36 yards  I would like to read Me by Elton John  Kanye West talks about when he was hospitalized due to a mental breakdown and how God was there for him and inspired him. This experience Kanye had converted him to Christianity. After that Kanye began to show his devotion to christ in his music.   When he was hospitalized due to a mental break down.  I havent listened to his album Jesus is King yet.  I wouldn't know.   He talked about his stream of conscience, this included religon, the perils of fame, going to church as a kid, strip clubs, and the devil.  no.  I think that he is a changed man and has "found Jesus" even though his albums in the pass don't show any sign of humility I think that people can change. He cant just get rid of his past, he needs to face what is front of him and right now thats God.    

 I felt happy because victorious was added onto Netflix. I felts upset because i saw someone littering on campus. I was mad because i had to do another world geo map project.   I finished my meiosis project. I convinced my mom to let me go to house of torment, and i fixed my math grade before the end of the 6 weeks.   I worry about my grades, whether or not I am prepared for my tests, and i'm worried about if something dangerous were to happen at school.   When people walk slow in front of me,   I need better grades, to work harder, and i need to prepare more for my future.   I think teachers need to worry about if they are truly teaching every student, if there teaching style is right for everyone, and if they know what there doing.   when a student finally understands, making it through another day of work, giving a good lesson.   I like how there is a lot of diversity, how every student is differen...
