Journal Entry #14 On Dumpster Diving

His view on College Students that discard goods, are common among today. There alot of teens that have not yet worked and do not know how it feels to work their backs and receive a weakly check. Those that are living within their parents have it easy and do not struggle maintaining themselves with what little resources they have. They have endless resources that provide them a safety nest, that they can go back to.

Once they reach college, those that have not tasted responsibility in working to be able to live by, face a cultural shock. Unwillingly they have adapted themselves to save what few necessities that have to be able to live by. College students are too adapted to having their parents look after them, that they act as if they have no worries to face. When they find something better, and that looks better appetizing, they will discard what they think as old and un functional. Discarding what is still of good use, it all goes to the trash.

Journal Entry #13 I-Search Topic


Blog 10: 2-3 paragraphs 1) already know on your topic 2)what you want to learn and why
on the topics you choose
1) Immigration should people that have done no crime and have been here for many years stay or be kicked out. 
2)Should people and jobs judge a person by their piercings and tattoos. 
3)Should financial assistance be taken away from people, because of many that have lied to receive it. 

     I choose three topics that interest me, and that are controversial on whether it should be fixed on ignored. My topics are: should immigrants that have been here for many years and have not committed a crime or become a danger be kicked out of the U.S.A for being illegal  should people that have piercings or tattoos be denied from a job or be judged by their appearances, should financial assistance be taken away form everyone due to many frauds done by other people. My topics are choose, because each of them have affected me in my life. 
     I know that there are many illegals that have done harm to this country and they continue to have their citizenship, while those that have done no trouble through out many years in this country have been denied citizenship. There are good people out there that do not do drugs or do anything bad, but have decided to get a tattoo, just because they saw it as beautiful. Those few people are denied jobs, because of their appearance to look repulsive to the employer. Few jobs accept them, especially when they have piercings that seem to stand out. People like me, that can not afford much have medicaid and food stamps. We can not always afford much, especially when you are the one working and maintaining bills for your family; illegal is a factor to this. There are people out there that can afford alot, but decide to save  it and purchase non necessity objects, like a new car.
     I want to know is  there anything that can be done or fixed about social taboos.People judge by how they were raised as, and do not see opportunities that could be provided. Many can not afford the food or transportation, when dealing with cons of being illegal. My mother does not have a job, so I had to look for one to be able to provide for them. It was hard at first knowing that you could be judged by your piercing.
