How does money effect relationships?

Money effects relationships like crazy. You can build or destroy relationships that are based upon money. Although money may build a relationship, I think that it is more likely to destroy it than not The amount of money that you have may play a role in the relationship as well as just plain old money. Let me explain myself.

Some ways that money could build a relationship is simple. If a guy/girl is clueless, and just wants someone to love them, then bam!! Someone that just wants a relationship for the money, well there you go! The two can be in a relationship based on what their need, (most likely wants) are in life. Though a relationship will not be the greatest because they may not be very compatable with each other, the wants are fullfilled and they have a relationship.

But money can totally destroy relationships for the most obvious reasons. First of all, you can't just base a relationship upon money. That is not very good. You have to have other factors that play into your relationship. Unless you don't want a very good relationship then just go right on a head and base your relationship on money.

Take the following example into consideration, a guy with a lot of money. Then also a girl that has never had much money in her life. They deside to get married. They girl is so exited that she finally has money now. Thee guy is carefull with his money, that is why he has so much. One day, the girl goes on a shopping spree. She decides to kind of wipe a lot of the money away on just stuff. They guy is so not pleased with her. Therefore this story will end in a divorce.

In conclusion, as you already know, money of course plays a huge factor in a relationship. Weather a good or a bad relationship. Or a want or a need, it obviously is a factor to a relationship. When you get into a relationship...do not base it upon your or the other persons want for money!

What makes a good relationship?

In my opinion, there are many factors that help make up a good relationship. Of the many, true love would be the biggest factor of a good relationship. Others factors would consist of a good friendship, honesty, trust and happiness. Love, it's really all that it takes to have a good, even great relationship. If you have love then you automaticly have everything else, the friendship, the honesty, trust and happiness. Let me explain myself.

Think about your best friend. You love have a good relationship with them right? Well why is this? Because you have love. It doesn't even have to be all the romantic lovey dovey stuff. Just love period. If you do truely love them, then you have a good relationship. You have 1) a good friendship, obviously. 2) your honest with eachother. 3) You trust one another. 4) You are both happy. Which would make sense.


If you don't base a good or even just a relationship on love then I could only imagine how bad the relationship would be. If you don't have love, then you don't have anything else. Anything that would also go along with it just doesn't exist in the relationship. You can have friendship, honesty, trust, happiness without love. But you cannot have love, if you don't have those things. If you want love, then you automatically get the other stuff with the package.

If you want a good relationship then find love. Without love, there is no relationship. If someone where to get into a relationship, but they didn't love eachother, then the relationship would be completely pointless. There would be absolutely no reason at all to be with a person in a relationship if you do not love them. Just a waste of time. If you were in a relationship with someone and you didn't love them then you would get sick of them. That could lead to other stuff along the lines of abuse, hatred, anger, and much more.

As you can see I believe that any good relationship should be based on love. It is the only possible way that one could be in a good relationship or even a relationship at all! From the reasons that I gave I hope you know that love is the greatest factor of any relationship.

Should we be tested to graduate high school?

I personally believe that high school students should not be tested to graduate high school. If you were to think about it there are many reasons that students shouldn't be tested to graduate. Some reasons being that some people do not test well at all, we've already had tons of schooling to prove our knowlege, and much more. In my next few paragraphs I will explian my thinking.

My first reason being that some students do not test well. I am one who doesn't test very well and when I hear the word test, it about makes me sick. I just can't handle them very well. i can know all of the stuff backwords to front and still get a very poor score on my test. As soon as I see that test infront of my I get so nervous. Then my mind blanks out which results in doing poorly on a test.

Also, from the time of Kindergarten to you Senior year you have taken a total of 13 years of schooling, not including if you have taken Preschool. All those hours that you've studied for quizes and tests, all the many more hours that you've spent doing homework, on top of that all of the in class participation assignments. That is a lot for a highschool kid to handle. Then on top of that lets just throw on another test that possibly could determine where you go to college and the game plan for the rest of your life. There is so much material that the ACT covers that students could be so smart and get the best of grades and know the material, but then when it comes to writing it all down, they choke and end up doing very poorly and then they blew thier chance to do something great. We should get more credit for all the work that we do than we do actually get credit for.

One last reason is because there are other ways that we have to pass to graduate. First, we have to pass all of our classes. We also have to be in school with no more than x amount of tardies and absences. Some students struggle in these areas. We have already been tested in each and every single different one of our classes. If we have already passed that class then abviously we know the stuff that we need to know to pass. So why do they stress us out even more adding another test on top of all of this. If they added another test then I believe that the only thing to make it right is not even test throughout the year. If the test is the thing to make us graduate, then why would students come to school? Why would they do homework or participate in class?

In conclusion I think that they should most defenatly not make us take an addional test to graduate high school. If they add a test, they add stress and anxiety as well. My reasons should clearly tell you why I think that we should not be tested on what we have learned throughout the years to graduate high school.

Celebrites-

Should celebrities be held to a different standard that everyone else? I in fact, think that yes, they should. Well, no. They shouldn't. But as a society, we put them in that position that we look at their standards. So, I think that celebrities should be held not just to a different standard, but a higher standard. I think that since celebrities are every where, a lot of people tend to look up to them. In the next few paragraphs I will explian my thinking.

I think that the fact that they are everywhere, and people see them on the internet, on TV, in newspapers, and on billbords they know someone is always wathcing them. Just waiting for them to mess up. Waiting for them to make one wrong move. They don't really look at the good, just pick out the bad. So they should step it up to the plate, there's no reason to set a bad example. Because of this reason, I think that they should set a higher standard or example for the many who are actually watching them. So people will see that they do more good and try to do the same.

So many kids and few adults would like to become like one of them. Therefore they act the way that the celebrities act. If celebrities do a good deed, they will want to do the same, but people rarely pick out the good. So once they see a celebrity slip, they do the same. They start acting the way that they do which is not always a good idea.

I think that in today's society, there's not really a way to fix this, it's just the way that it is. Once you are a celebrity, you kind of set or sign yourself up for the task of being an example. You basically are the one who is going to show everyone your standards by your actions. This should not be done though.

In conclusion, I don't like that this is the way it is. Yes, of course celebrites should be held to show higher standards. But as human beings, I think that we should not watch thier every move and we should find more of the good. We should stop comparing ourselves to everything that celebrities or anybody does, just be happy and content with how you act all on your own.

Net Gen

Are we the 'net gen' that they say we are? Of course not. Some, obviously yes, but all, no way. Why do they think of everyone as having this problem? Just the one's who are as they describe as this addiction to the net, we all have the bad name attached to us. I personaly do not think that a 'screenager' is aplicable to every single person. The following reasons will help me explain my thinking.

Thinking of this generation as adicted to screens, screens are everywhere. Of course there is going to be more temptations. But the fact being that they are everywhere doesn't mean that it is just our generation or our generations at all. Because people see them anywhere, this problem can easily be apart of anybodies generation. Not just ours.

Take the following example into consideration. A drug adict. Drugs are everywhere. Drugs are also addicting. Just as the 'net' may be in some cases. Yet, not everyone does drugs. Not every single person has that addicion.

In conclusion, as you can see, I believe that this generation is not the 'net gen'. Yes there may be a few here and there but it is not all of us. Like my example of the drug adict. So, I hope that the older generations will take this into consideration and not name this generation 'the net gen'.
