My Thoughts about PROM!!!!!

Today I would like to talk about Prom. Prom is way to expensive for what it is worth. Just for me to hang out with my friends I have to pay $100, also for me to rent a Tux it was touching $150, and don't even get me start on how much girls have to pay. It seems like some fun and a good excuse to get dressed up. And if you want to ask a girl out you have to do something special or buy them something nice, which for me seems a bit excessive, but it is what it is. The cost out weighs the benefits for me. Others will say it is worth the high price tag but it really is not. Although I did not go last year I have been told that the food was terrible, the DJ was bad, and the after prom was better than prom itself. Overall I have never been a huge fan of school dances in the first place, but I still know it is not worth the price. Overall my school really needs to reduce the price of prom.

Some Fun

For the last couple of weeks I have been volunteering with the special olympics. This experience has been a lot of fun., although it can be a bit frustrating. I have been teaching kids how to swim. All in all it is always a great experience and I am always looking forward to it. It always makes me smile when I see a kid pick up a new concept. It is extremely rewarding to work with these kids. You also really create a bond with a lot of these kids.

Refugee Ban

Lets be honest about the refugee ban, it is completely on unconstitutional. The United States has always had the in its Bill of Right that you can be a part of any religion, and they can turn you away for being a part of a religion. So to attempting to ban muslims/muslims countries from entering the country just seems ridiculously racist and xenophobic. Stoping muslims from entering the country doesn't solve anything, it just promotes hate and injustice in the US. Thankfully the muslim ban is over and hopefully will not be put back into law.

York

Sorry this blog is coming in after the deadline, but I have good news I might have decided on what college to go to. The college I am thinking about attending is York College of Pennsylvania. This is because I have already been accepted and I visited the college today and I really enjoyed the campus as well as the town around it. My dad thinks it is far enough away from home for me to go to. Although I will not be committing to York until March 1, because that is when I will get UD's finally decision about my admission. Overall York seems like the school that is going to fit me.
