It's All About Me!!!

A few things you would need to know about me before I began, I was born and raised in Warner Robins, Georgia. So basically I am a country girl. I enjoy traveling to other states and sandy beaches. Any place that has clear water and water sports I am there. My parents have been married for the past twenty two years raising four children. I am the baby girl of the family. I am very spoiled rotten. Anything I want from my parents I sometimes get.

I went to Lindsey Elementary school from first to fifth grade. A lot of the kids I went to school with in elementary school, I don't see them anymore. I prefer it that way. I don't like seeing old friends they always bring back things that were embarrassing. I really hated elementary school to be honest. I hated going out for recess and couldn't stand to play with other children. I would always stay inside and do more homework. I only had one best friend that stayed down the street and if I wasn't at her house than she was at mine. There were plenty of times where we would play in the dirt or try to eat it and I have more scratches on my body than I can count.

During my middle school years my best friend and I still stayed in touch. Even though we lived right down the street from each other we would still write each other letters. How lame can we get? In middle school I think that's when I started to make more friends and boys became more interesting. Many days of swimming in the pool and I enjoyed seeing the opposite sex. Music became more popular to me then. I think I started taking more of what I saw in the music videos and tried to use it in real life. I would say probably by my eighth grade year I grew out of that. I started to gain my self esteem. Watching my mother I learned a lot from her. She made me realize how arrogant some men could be.

By my ninth grade year I had my first boyfriend. I was fifth teen and he was twenty. That was ass backwards from the beginning of the relationship because of the age difference. He was my first love, if you want to call him that. Anyways you can tell didn't last. Life did go on. I moved on and found more intrest in biology and anatomy. That's what made me want to become a doctor or pediatrician. I love kids. Don't have any, but I plan to some day. Maybe after I finish school.

When I started college that was a big change. It's such a big transition from high school. It seems like one minute you're a child and in a couple of months you become an adult. That's almost scary. I like being in college though. You have your own freedom and you become your own boss. I am a strong believer in not giving up. There are like two classes that I won't pass this semester, but I still come to class anyways. I might learn from my mistakes this semester and correct them next year. I planned on attending Emory university, but I don't think my SAT scores or my money were good enough. Maybe sometime in the future that will happen. I enjoy attending Macon State. The school is just more strict than any other schoo I've known.

My goal for the future is to have my own doctor's office. I believe if I work hard enough and focus more it will be accomplished. Whether or not I'll get married and have kids that's hard to say. A husband and kids are both time consuming. I'm not sure if I'll have that time. Most doctor's I know work at least twelve hours or more, and don't get to spend time with their families. I figure at least if I have my own office I can create my own hours.

Now you know more about my life and the goals I hope to accomplish. They say the past makes you who you are today and i think my past help to make me a better person. I've learned from my previous mistakes and I'm learning from all.

The Right to Take another life

Topic: Alzheimer's Disease

How do I explain my emotions on taking another life? Someone dying from a heart attack or a stroke maybe is understandable right? It happens by nature. To lay your life in the hands of someone else is a different story. I disagree in a situation involving a loved one with alzheimer's. There is no real suffering. You're just not able to remember what happend.

First, I'm not sure how he killed his wife wether he put her to sleep or stabbed her to death. His reason behind it doesn't make sense. I'm sure he could have taken his wife to a nursing home or left her in the care of someone else. Killing her shows he has no feelings. Gilbert shows how humans really don't care. He killed his wife without even thinking about the reprocussions or crime being commited. You still have some peolple that have comitted the same crime and still don't recieve any punshminet for the crime they commited. Gilbert sets a crime for people that slaughter elder people. People in nursing homes think it's okay to treat elder's with disrespect or to take them out of their misery.

Another reason why I believe Gilbert reasons are all wrong. he says that his wife begged him to end her life. If my bhusband is not in his right mind how would I know if he actually meant what he said. Terri Schiavo was the same way. It was left in the hands of her husband and he made what he tought was the best decisions. What human being has that much power to take the right of another human being. Maybe a nursing home was the best decision for Gilbert's wife. I don't think Gilbert really thought that through.

Society doesn't seem to concern because half the people I asked don't seem to remember the case or Gilbert. As far as denying him clemency I think he deserved what he got. Why would you protect someone that kills someone whose not in their right mind. I wouldn't even think about protecting someone. Our law has that right to step in on a situation like that. I agree the law did the right thing but they could have done more. Gilbert should have been sentenced to life in jail.
