Ken-Robinson Video

I really enjoyed watching the Ken-Robinson Video. It felt like I was watching the video for my own self instead of having to watch it for class. It was very intersting the way he worded his whole speech. The way he told us about how children have creativity and how in many ways they could express there creativity. I agree with this video in many ways. I believe that children have quite a creative mind, almost more creative than many adults. They should be able to express there creativity while they have it, many children lose it or just don't know how to find it with they start growing up. I am not very creative at all, and I wish I were. I see a few of my friends that are and I absolutely love it. When your a child everyone is creative, it's just the luck of the draw who is stays with and who it doesn't. If we could practice more creativity in schools besides just in art class but with writing and other things I think it would stick with us a lot more for when we got older.


With this video here, the creator must have been creative by being able to write such a good speech. The way they wrote it made it interesting for the audience, it didn't bore us by any means. It kept me waiting for what else they were going to say, keep me chuckling the whole video. I really enjoy when Sheila gives us videos to watch because she has quite the sense of humor. She knows what most of us would like to watch and she woudn't give us something to watch that she could barely stay focused on either.

Go Green

I am a type of person who will sometimes believe in karma, I know its kind of hypocritical but in someways I do and someways I don't. I do hope if you do something real wrong in life that it will come back and bite you in the butt..its just not fair if it doesn't. I've actually got a funny example I can share with you guys. My friend Kayla was driving to work the other day and she rolled down her window to throw out a gum wrapper, in other words LITTERING, after she through the gum wrapper out her window would not roll back up. Come to find out her window broke and she ended up having to take it in and spending about 200 bucks to get it fixed all because she had to through a gum wrapper out the window which could have stayed in the car until she got out and found a garbage. In my example I believe it could be two reasons for the window breaking, either karma, or her window just happened to break at that time.


I am represting going Green and the nonnecessary littering and usage of material. I understand the hardships were having with money these days and how hard it is to try to be good to the earth if it is just easier to buy the cheaper and easier stuff to get ahold of but in the end its going to ruin it for everybody.


I believe that everybody should start to go green it will help out the earth in the end. I know its hard to change products that you have used forever but its the least you could do for the earth. I am also a big believer in carpooling, why drive separtely if your friend are driving up for the day also. It saves you money and it is a lot safer for the earth. The earth will not be around forever and we all know that so why not do your part and help it stay around as long as possible. The way we are doing things now will not help the earth at all.


All I am asking is to try to do your part and start to go green, and try not to litter. Try to get a group together and do a road side clean up. Little things like that help out more than you know.
