Topic: Hijacked
When i think of the word hijacked one book comes to my mind called "Lets Roll" written by Todd Beamer's wife. Todd was a passenger on the flight that went down in the Pennsylvania field. Todd left behind a loving wife and children. Todd woke up early on the morning of September 11 to catch a plane to go to work. While they were flying the plane started to be hijacked by some terroists. Todd was not scared at all. He tried his best to help everyone on the plane stay calm and safe. He even called his wife on his cell phone at the time of the hijacking to tell her what was going on. The last words that he told her was that he loved her. That was the last time she heard from Todd. Even though Todd tried to help everyone, the hijackers still won because the plane ended up crashing into the Pennsylvania field where mostly everyone on board was killed.This book really touched my heart because i have family and friends that travel on planes. Its a really scary thought to think about.
Sometimes i wonder why do these things have to happen? No one really knows the correct answer to that question. The present president and resent presidents probaly couldn't even answer it. Some say that it's because these terroists have a lot of hate towards the United States. I think it's because of stupidity. In my opinion, the United States needs to be the bigger people about it and try to resolve the problem. Im not saying that it's our fault but we need to stop playing the same games that the terroists are playing. As long as we keep going back and forth then thousands of our family and friends who are in the military will continue to get killed. Not only people in the military but also innocent adults and kids will continue to be killed also. Innocent people who travel on planes and innocent people who work on base or anywhere around base have to think about it. When you watch the news about something terrible like this you never hear them talk about how we are trying to resolve or fix the problem. It's always about how many people got killed or what got bombed. We will continue to hear those answers if we don't do nothing about it. Seriously think about it. When will this come to an end? Or will it ever come to an end? Maybe they feel it will come to an end when everyone is dead. Hopefully it want get that far. The United States as one need to step up and try and make these horrible tragedies end.

Its not RIGHT all the time
Topic: Right or Wrong
People have different opinions on different subjects. What i feel may be the right thing to do may be different in your opinion and what you feel may be the right thing to do may be different in my opinion.
For example, my friend was in a very confusing situation. Her abusive boyfriend wanted her to move out with her parents and to get an apartment with him. Her parents really didn't approve of her boyfriend because of his controlling temper. He pressured her and pressured her to move in with him. Many friends and family members pressured her not to do. She was really confused and didn't know what to do. Her boyfriend brain washed her making her think that we were the bad people and that we didn't want her to be happy with him. We were telling her the same thing. She eventually moved out of the house with her parents and moved in with him. We continued to tell her that it was wrong but she still convinced us that it was right. Not even a month later she was back living with her parents. As soon as she moved back in her parents kept telling her that they told her and that they were right. She knew that they were telling the truth but she didn't know how to take it because thought at first that she was right. They eventually had a family meeting where they sat down and talked to her and they all got to express their feelings about the situation. Since then she has been a very different person and she thinks twice before she decides to make a decision about something.
Another example is that you may be around friends that smoke. They may tell you that you should smoke to relieve stress and all these other myths about smoking. In your head you know that it's wrong, but you have people around you pressuring you telling you that it's right. They always say that you should go on what your heart tells you to do. Sometimes your heart might tell you to do something that you know might be wrong. I can tell you that from experince. I was the girl that was around friends that smoked and at first my heart told me that it was okay just because my friends were doing it. I knew that my heart wasn't being honest with me but i still decided to do it. My mom then started smelling the smoke on me. When she started to ask did I smoke, I denied it from her. She then one day had to move my car so that she could get out of the driveway and she found a pack of cigarettes. There was no way to lie out of that one. She never said anything to me until she got home from work. She really made me realize that I shouldn't do anything that can kill me in the future or give me cancer. She also told me that my great-grandfather passed away the year i was born because he had lung cancer. She said that he found out that he had lung cancer three weeks before he died. My mom did not want that to happen to me. I really did thank my mom for that advice. Since that day i have not smoked a cigarette. I even got most of my friends to stop. I still have a couple of friends who have tried to stop but they can't because they are so addicted to them.
In conclusion, people have different morals. What you feel is wrong someone else may feel is right and what you feel is right someone else may feel is wrong.

A Little About ME!!
My name is Pe'Toyria Wilson. I am a 19 year old female. I graduated from Perry High School with the class of 2005. I didn't attend college until the following January after graduation. I attended Middle Georgia Tech and then i decided to transfer because I want to be a registered nurse and they only offer LPN's. Their was a bad part and a good part to that story. The bad part about that is Macon State College didn't accept any of my classes. The good part is that i knew a lot more than my fellow classmates because i had already taken the classes that I was in my first semester of Macon State College. I live at home with my mom and sister. I am a very busy person. I work and go to school and when i'm not doing those two things i'm usually studying. I never like to sit at home and be lazy. No one can ever get me down or hurt my feelings. I am a very independent woman. I have basically everything that i need. The only thing that's missing would be my own house. Hopefully I will be moving out soon. To be honest, I'm just trying to be focused on school because i never thought that I would make it this far. The day that I'm waiting on now would be the day that I walk across the stage getting my college diploma. I can't wait!!
How I See the World Today
Topic: Perception
Perception better describes one's ultimate experience of the world and typically invloves further processing of sensory input. I have had so many experiences in the world today. I feel as if the world is basically giving you a chance to go out and experience. Most people just sit at home and don't know what's out here in the world today. If you go out and experience it will make you feel better emotionally and physically.
I was so depressed one day because me and my boyfriend decided we shouldn't be together. My family and I were going to Florida that following weekend of the break up. I really didn't want to go but my mom made me. I never really realized how much you can experience just by going out of state with your family members. I went to places that i never thought that i would ever see in my lifetime. I had so much fun. I never once was depressed or even thought about being depressed over my break up situation. We went to a lot of different places such as, amusement parks, malls, and resturants. Everything was so beautiful and just made me realize that when you sit at home, you're asking to be depressed. If you go out to have perception then you will love it. It makes you feel a lot better no matter what the situation might be. I thought that even though i was going out of state that i would still be depressed wanting to be back with my ex-boyfriend. At first, on the way down there it was hard but once we got into Florida the atmosphere around you was so beautiful. We just rode through the large town of Jacksonville, Florida sight seeing. It was wonderful knowing that i could go out their and percept and it would make me feel a lot better emotionally and physically. It made me feel better physically because i wasn't at home being lazy, i was actually out and about having fun.
