Ask.fm Social Site Same Bullying

In the article Ask.fm New Social Site Same bullying  speaks about how social sites are being taken advantaged of and are used as a form of bullying.  It also referred to as Cyber Bullying. In the article a mother states that her daughter was bullied on the site ask.fm. This site lets users ask question anonymously to each other. People would tell her go die or go drink bleach. One teenager even committed suicide, and the father blamed it on the site.  Now the site is working on making its conditions better and "stepping up its game"

My opinion of this article is that social websites should set an age limits for teens and  sites should make their conditions better and make sure people actually read the terms of service

Thought: Should social sites set a certain limit so teenagers won't get hurt and bullying wouldn't be a such a problem

Success

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty-Six times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed.

                           -Michael Jordan

This quote to me is saying that in order to succeed in life, we are going to have to fail. It's like crawling before walking. A baby is going to fall constantly when learning to walk.

Life

Do Now:

life is 10% of what happens to you and 90% of how you react to it

i believe that this quote or saying means that you react most to what happens to you in life which is completely normal

My new years resolution is to pay attention more in class and pass this year in order to make it to the 12th grade and graduate high school.

Two Steps in order to complete this goal are

1.Ttake down notes

2. Actually listen to the teacher
