Age

Should parents be going back to college and when is a good time to go back it you decide to?

Why do you have to be 21 to drink? We are considered adults at 18. We can serve our country at 18. We can smoke at 18. We can buy a house or car when we are 18. And we can have kids when we want. Everything we do can be done at 18 or younger expect for drinking. Most everyone drinks before they are 21. Why do we have to wait until we are 21 the legally drink? Does this make since to any one?

Oh dear...all out of petals and I’m still not satisfied. As the last one falls to the ground I begin to realize how uncertain love is. What if there was one more petal on that flower? Would my mind be any more at ease?

Odd title huh? Well this week in my sociology class, we learned that race is a social creation in the sense that genetically human beings aren't different races, instead we are just different looking. Dont take this idea too seriously, it's just the thought that prejiduce comes from classifying a nationality as different from you and than saying that they are different race.

I come from a moral-based, conformist, Mexican family. So much of that description might make you think that you wouldn't like to be part of a family like this, but I have to say that as times progress, so do people. I should change 'moral-based' into religious because I was raised with that fear most live with that you cannot do certain things or God will punish you or you will go to hell.

What does it really mean to be 18 years old? Everyone always makes such a big deal about it because supposedly it's when you finally become a full adult. Yes you can vote, legally have sex, and are no longer under obligation to follow parental rules but who came up with the bright idea of making that age 18?

So... It's happened again.

Yet another woman has showed up at my doorstep with a problem. This time, she hasn't been hit by her...um...beaux(?) But she's already showing the signs!
