Entry #3 ~ Are Vaccines good?

Image
https://directorsblog.nih.gov/2022/10/18/study-shows-benefits-of-covid-19-vaccines-and-boosters/       Ever since the pandemic hit in 2020 the government has been requiring the vaccine. This article is biased with saying that the vaccine is the only thing that will keep one safe from the virus. when that is not the case to every person who gets the vaccine.          The reason why this article is biased is because people in my life that got the vaccine have stilled gotten covid. The article also says to get the vaccine to protect your health and loved ones health but from personal experiencing once people got the vaccine their body couldn't take it and they got really sick for a couple of days after they got the vaccine. it seemed they were in better health before they got the vaccine rather than after they got it. People were so sick they hardly got out of bed because every part of their body was hurting.      Vaccines aren't...

Entry #6 ~ Relating to Coach Carter film

Image
     Coach carter is a film that was made in 2005 that is also based on a true story. It is a four star rated movie that is PG-13. This movie is about a basketball player named Ken Carter that graduated from a high school in Richmond, California then came back a few years later to coach the basketball to get the boys in shape and academically discipline. Carter's goal was to get the young group of men to understand that they are capable of doing more than what people think they could do. At first the only thing the team cared about was playing basketball, so then Carter had to explain that they are student athletes and the student part comes first.             This movie is without a doubt my top ten. The reason for this is because me being a student athlete, I feel the same way that the team did not caring about grades and just playing the sport I am in. But after seeing this movie it changed my whole perspective of being a stude...

Entry #5 ~ Opinion on local story

Image
     In this article,  Governor Ducey stated that, "Less than half of Arizona's working adults have degrees or training beyond high school. We must fix that"(Ducey).  As of right now the percent of Arizonans with a college degree or certificate is around 40% and Ducey's goal is to have at least 60 percent of Arizonans with college degree or certificate by 2023. one of his strategies is to put more money into schools . Image source      This article uses ethos and pathos when Ducey states that he is not only a governor but a husbands and father just like one of us. With this he is trying to get the readers to understand that he has similar feelings to them about how he cares about the future and his kids. He also uses logos when he explains his strategies on how to achieve his goals. I agree with Ducey about getting more people to have a college degree or certificate. The reason for this because education = opportunity which means the farther deg...

Entry #4 ~ World of fitness

      Participating in fitness or doing exercise every now and then can help one to a great extent. In other words, being in a physical activity helps with health problems, mental problems, improves your confidence, and so much more.  The majority of people don't like to exercise because they feel like it's too much work or they don't like feeling sweaty. If people knew all the benefits fitness had their attitude towards fitness would change. image source     In the U.S. h eart disease and stroke are two leading causes of death. Doing at least 150 minutes a week of physical activity can reduce the chance of those diseases. The more exercise someone does the lower the risk of these diseases become. Doing physical activities does not mean to go to the gym and going hard. It is simply just finding something that the person enjoys to do that involves movement. Once that is found it will become something that person looks forward to doing and tha...
