I’ve been a blogger since September 2008; the experience has been very good. When you are a blogger you can blog about any subject you want; but, if you are a student the subject may be up to your teacher. If you are a person living at home you can blog about anything. My teacher let’s me choose what kind of blog I want to write about and if it’s appropriate I can type it. To make a good blog post you would need an exciting story and pictures, because a blog post without pictures is just words; but, sometimes the words can still be exciting. I like it when people comment on blogs because it’s nice.
What has your experience with blogging been like?

D.A.R.E. April 20, 2009

Do you know about D.A.R.E.? D.A.R.E. is a program to help kids make good choices in life. My class does it we also learned facts about alcohol, and smoking. For example I learned in D.A.R.E. that alcohol causes brain damage and smoking causes lung cancer. If I have a strong urge to smoke I chew some gum. If I have a strong urge to drink I drink something other than alcohol.
Alcohol causes many things. Kidney damage, brain damage, and it can be addictive. Alcohol is like a poison that can destroy many lives. It makes people do wrong choices. And people when they are drunk, their appearance changes. They may look like their eyes go down a little, they smile very weirdly, and they are completely unaware of what they do.
Smoking is wrong. Cigarettes have 200 known poisons in them and smoking can cause heart disease and lung cancer. Sure, you don’t get those diseases yet; but, you will if you smoke a lot. If someone smokes a little bit they will get addicted to it and it is really hard to stop. Smoking can change your appearance by having yellow teeth, yellow fingers, and giving you bad smelling clothes and hair.
If someone walks up to you and offers you a beer what would you say? Well guess what, you always have the choice to say no. If you don’t have any choices that come to mind always know you have D.A.R.E. knowledge.
